Chapter 140 - Friends
At about eight o'clock in the evening, Mu Fengye left Yingli's house, he accepted Silina's kindness and let her follow, the path under the moonlight was very quiet, the telephone poles around him seemed to yawn, and the lights flickered and flickered.
"Night, do you have any habits of eating your mother's cooking?" asked Serina as she walked.
Mu Fengye nodded in acquiescence, he had never eaten the dishes that Hoshino had cooked, and his father was also busy with business and rarely came home, and most of the food in his belly was made by servants and cooks.
"Will you all come to my house for dinner in the future? It's hard for you to eat if you live alone, right?"
"It's not a ...... alone" Mu Fengye said lightly, his right eye showed a hint of resentment, as if a lot of things had happened to him, something that a twelve-year-old child could not have experienced.
"Hmm, do you have a maid at home?"
"No ......"
Then Sirina asked him no matter how she asked him, and the silence was terrible, and those words seemed to enter a black hole, and she couldn't even see a response. Mu Fengye, who didn't say a word, made Silina feel very helpless, and she didn't know if her words hurt him.
"Night, I'm sorry, let's change the subject. Serina hurriedly found a way to change the topic, and at the same time, the twisted facial features on Mu Fengye's face were also soothed, "By the way, you're going to transfer to our school tomorrow, are you familiar with it?"
"My mother took me to it before, and it was very different from the schools in China. ”
"Maybe you'll like it even more. ”
Mu Fengye paused and said softly: "It doesn't matter, it's all the same anyway......"
"Yes......" Silina probably knew what Mu Feng was thinking in her heart, no matter what country she was in, he would never have relatives by his side to accompany him, and he could only be such a lonely person all the time, "Have you ever chosen a class?"
"In Year 1B, Mom said her friend's daughter was there too. ”
"Oh, it's in the same class as me~" Serina suddenly reacted, "It's good if you just say that you're in the same class as me." ”
Mu Fengye stopped, raised his head to look at the slightly flickering street lamp overhead, and turned back and said, "Silina, you go back, I know the road ahead, and I will call Aunt Yingli back when I get home." ”
"But it's dark in front, so I brought a flashlight......
Before Serina finished speaking, Mu Fengye walked into the darkness alone: "It's okay, I like darker places, go back quickly, it's dangerous to be alone outside at night." ”
"Is it really okay?" Seeing that Mu Fengye had completely disappeared from view, Serina had no choice but to talk to herself and started the way back, she thought it would be a peaceful Sunday, but she didn't expect to usher in such a boy, he was very gloomy, and his body was shrouded in black gas, but she didn't plan to stay away from this boy like this.
Almost at the same time, Silina and Mu Fengye returned to their respective homes at the same time, Mu Fengye did not call Yingli back, but just threw down her schoolbag, stripped off her clothes and entered the bathroom that was the size of two or three living rooms combined.
"Mom, did you call back at night?"
"Not yet, what's the matter?" Ying Li glanced at the time, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, "I should have been home a long time ago...... Maybe he forgets, the child, like his father, forgets things that are not very important. ”
"Mom, the night will be fine, will you?" Sirina has already changed into her pajamas, and she has class tomorrow, so she has to go to bed quickly.
"It's okay, go to bed, you'll have to worry about it again tomorrow morning when your mother calls you." ”
"Okay~ I see. ”
The next day, Serena never thought she would get up so early, even though she was sleepy, there was still a force urging her to leave the warm bed.
"Good morning, why are you up so early today?" Yingli had already made breakfast, she had to go to work earlier than Sirina, and she had already changed her uniform and was ready to leave for the company at the door.
"I don't know...... Ah, Mom, you're going to work? Be careful on the road. ”
"Well, I'm leaving. ”
It's still early, Silina got up about half an hour earlier than usual, after washing up and eating breakfast, she left home in a hurry, today is Mu Fengye's first time coming to school, it's better to pick him up.
Following the path she hadn't walked yesterday, Serina stopped in front of an ancient mansion that was bigger than she had imagined, and although she had passed by it several times, she had never felt it so strongly as she did today.
There are a lot of fallen leaves in front of the house, and it seems that no one has cleaned them for a long time, and the iron door is closed, so I am afraid that you will not be able to enter without a key. There is a newly installed button next to the iron door, and the bronze button seems to blend in with the iron door, and it is really not so easy to spot it if you don't look closely.
"Ding-dong-"
The sound was transmitted through the stereo to the house, and only a small sound could be heard outside.
"The door has opened. The button has its own intercom, Mu Fengye's voice is not very clear, but he can hear what he is saying.
"Click. ”
Serina pushed open the iron door, turned around and closed it, and entered the courtyard of the ancient mansion for the first time, the carpet-thick fallen leaves on the ground were so soft that there was no sound of any leaf cracking when stepping on it.
A crack opened in the door of the old house, and a figure suddenly emerged from it.
"Did I wake up late?" Mu Feng asked when he locked the door and looked at the steps below.
"No, it's just the right time to leave for school. Serina had been thinking about Mu Fengye's blindfold, and after he walked down the steps, she finally couldn't help asking, "Why don't you take off your blindfold at night?"
Mu Fengye's whole person seemed to be frozen, and Silina suddenly saw the shadow of last night from his body, probably because of that eye, as long as he mentioned something about it, he would become silent, as silent as death.
"Ah, I'm just talking, let's go, today is the first day of the night to go to school, are you ready to introduce yourself?"
"Introduce yourself? I've never prepared that kind of thing. ”
"How are you going to introduce yourself in front of your classmates?"
"That's just people who will go their separate ways in three years, so there's no need to befriend them. ”
"How can you do that? Making friends is a compulsory course in school, you see, didn't Ye also become friends with me?"
"It's just that Aunt Yingli invited me to dinner yesterday that I reluctantly regarded you as a friend, and my mother said something similar. ”
Serina was not angry at Mu Fengye for saying such things, she knew that a lot of things had happened to him, and she planned to help him find the way that truly belonged to him: "In short, Ye must have a good relationship with his classmates, otherwise I will never let you and my family again." ”
Mu Fengye compromised, if he gave up the right to taste the food made by Ying Li, it would be better to refuse to stay for that dinner from the beginning.
"It's really troublesome, I know, I'll figure it out on the way. ”
When approaching the school, a young woman seemed to be waiting for someone at the school gate, and after seeing Mu Fengye and Silina walking together, she waved and greeted her with a smile.
"Mu Feng, right, the teacher has already seen your photo, my name is Mizuki Weiya, the homeroom teacher of Class B of the first grade. Oh, Aini, have you already met Mu Feng?" The young female teacher seemed to be very nice and gentle, and this school was not as boring as she imagined.
"Well, we're friends, Mizuki-sensei. ”
"Miss Wei Ya, my surname is not Mu Feng, only the first word is the surname. Mu Fengye corrected.
"Eh, is that so? But that's what it says in the teaching materials...... Teacher Shui Shu handed over Mu Fengye's materials, and there was indeed some white space between the second and third words on it, which made people mistakenly think that Mu Feng was the surname.
"Teacher, it's almost class. Serina reminded as she watched the time.
Returning to the classroom before class, Teacher Shui Shu did not let Mu Fengye come in as soon as possible, but simply informed the students: "Students, a new transfer student has come to our class today, let us welcome him." ”
There was a round of applause in the classroom, and Mu Fengye knew that it was time for him to step into this torrent of trouble.
When the students saw Mu Fengye wearing eye patches, they began to talk in a whisper.
Mu Fengye walked straight to the podium, picked up the chalk and wrote his name on the blackboard, but because he had seen the information before, he subconsciously separated the second and third words of his name.
"When we met for the first time, my name is Mu Fengye, please take care of me in the future. Mu Fengye's self-introduction was so simple that it was over before even Mr. Mizuki reacted, "Mr. Mizuki, where is my seat?"
"Oh, Mu Feng, you sit next to Aini, you just happen to know each other. ”
"Thank you, teacher. ”
The day's school life ended quickly, and at dusk, Mu Fengye, who had been at peace with the students, met the first person to talk to him besides Silina.
"I'm sorry, the classroom is closing, hasn't Mu Feng gone home yet?" A girl with glasses in a double ponytail came to the door of the classroom with a few books, as if she had just finished participating in a club activity.
"You ......"
"My name is Maeda Haru, and I'm the class president of Class B, by the way, Mu Feng hasn't come home so late, can't it be that he has already joined some club?" Maeda glanced at the classroom, the hygiene had been cleaned very well, she habitually closed the door and walked to the school gate with Mu Fengye.
"No, I'm waiting for Selina. ”
"Aini-san, she's already gone back with Akiko. ”
"Akiko?"
"Ah, I'm sorry. Her full name is Akiko Ayakawa and she is Aini-san's best friend. Unconsciously, they had arrived at the teaching building, Maeda rode home every day, and had to be separated here, she ran to the carport with the book in her arms, and waved her hand: "Mu Feng, see you tomorrow." ”
"Oh. Mu Fengye thought back to Maeda's words, and a sense of loss rose in his heart, "Best friend......
