"I used to have a younger sister, a very lovely sister. ”

The breeze on the face raised the past in the girl's heart. Facing the faint light of the bookstore, in her world, time seems to return to those warm and sweet days.

The girl struggled to remember, and finally immersed herself in the sweet memories, and her godless eyes lit up.

"She always laughs at me, makes fun of me, and then grinds me like a kitten and begs me for forgiveness. ”

Among the fragments of memory, the girl grabbed a piece, and in that fragment, the face of the short-haired girl made her immersive.

The younger sister rubbed the angry sister with her petite and cute body, which made it difficult for the sister to blame.

In those big eyes, a prayer overflowed. It penetrated deep into her sister's heart, making her feel that she would be burdened with a deep sense of guilt if she said any cruel word.

"When I was in danger, she was always desperate to stand in front of me. When I'm upset, she's always restless, really...... Actually, I'm going to feel bad to see her like that...... It's not an endless loop......"

The girl came back to her senses, and smiled very happily because she was completely immersed in the warmth just now.

"So...... Are you trying to find your sister...... Should I wish you could find it, or should I hope you never find it......"

After Boss Wu recorded today's events, he slowly closed the diary. Everything just now was what Nangong Yu said when he chatted with him in the bookstore.

In the dim light, the old figure hunched over, and today, he once again learned a story that made people sit on the spot.

"Why is God always so unfair, she is a black-haired person, and she has become a white-haired person......"

Boss Wu was stunned, his eyes seemed to be pulled away by a gravitational force, and he was projected onto a black and white photo.

"Just like me......"

Two days have passed since the mayor was attacked, and the incident has received great attention from the top brass of Black Lake City. They did not leak the news of the attack on the mayor and decided to force the mayor to go home in a special car disguised as a regular taxi.

In the past two days, the guard team also began to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the girl named "Bai Nanyu".

Although she didn't do anything bad and was secretly helping others, it was unsettling that she was so elusive and unsoothed. They thought that they had to find her and confirm it to be reassuring.

However, no matter how much the guards investigated, the mysterious white-haired girl was always hiding, and at most she only saw a back.

Another afternoon, Nangong Yu came to Boss Wu's bookstore again.

Quietly pushing open the door, with light steps, Nangong Yu walked behind the counter as usual. However, the moment she saw Boss Wu's face, she realized that something was wrong.

"I'm back. ”

Facing Boss Wu's very usual greetings, Nangong Yu tried to dispel the thoughts in his heart and responded with a smile.

Looking at Boss Wu's appearance, Nangong Yu obviously felt that he had something to say, but for some reason, that sentence kept choking in his throat.

I don't know what he's suspicious.

Afraid that saying that sentence would cause trouble? Afraid that saying it would hurt Nangong Yu? Or did he just not know how to speak?

After thinking about it, Boss Wu still chose to chat with Nangong Yu as usual.

Seeing that Boss Wu was about to start telling the story again, Nangong Yu immediately sat down obediently, as upright as a child who was learning.

A weathered person like Boss Wu likes to share his story with others the most, and he also enjoys the stories shared by others. Whether it's a good memory or an unspeakable mistake, he will accept it.

In the counter drawer of the bookstore, there is a family photo. In his free time, Boss Wu will take it out. Looking at the happy faces above, Boss Wu was gradually infected by the harmony of the letter stored in the photo, and showed a pleased smile.

At this time, Boss Wu took it out again, and then sat next to Nangong Yu like a family member and looked at the photo with her.

"They are my family, and I was a young man who had just started a family at that time......"

Boss Wu spoke slowly, and in Nangong Yu's mind, Boss Wu's words seemed to be compiled into a picture, forming a warm old movie.

The era full of simplicity and hardship, as well as joy and harmony, is meticulously displayed in Boss Wu's words.

His family was originally a farmer, but in order to provide for his education, his parents sold their cattle and cultivated the fields themselves.

His mother was strict and always expected him to be successful and glorious - but he just wanted to be an ordinary person, say, a bookstore owner.

It wasn't a crooked way, and his father was much more open than other parents at the time, so his father was very supportive.

After that, his life was unsatisfactory, he was forced to go into society, and an ordinary person became an ordinary person, but he did not achieve anything.

It wasn't until he got married that he entered middle age and began to gradually miss the old, from a young and vigorous young man to a stable middle-aged man, that he finally started the life he wanted.

This life lasted until he arrived in this world by accident.

"This photograph came with me, and I have always cherished it. Boss Wu said and looked at Nangong Yu with a surprised face, "That's right, I'm just like you, so you can trust me, kid." ”

Listening to Boss Wu's words, Nangong Yu subconsciously touched his chest, pulled a red thread around his neck, and pulled out a blue pendant from his clothes.

It was a very beautiful pendant, Nangong Yu thought that it should have belonged to another person, but she "gifted" it to Nangong Yu. Yes, this pendant came to this world with Nangong Yu.

"Can you tell me about that...... The day you came...... What is it like......" Nangong Yu tried to smile, but in the end he became a little heavy.

"At that time, I was lying in a hospital bed, and I still remember the scene in front of me......

I remember very well, they all gathered around me, some crying and some smiling. It was the happiest day since I got married, everyone came, even my son, who had been thinking about it day and night, gave up the day he could get a bonus and ran back.

I don't remember what they said at the time, it was too vague, but I remember...... The light outside the window, getting brighter and brighter, was like heaven was calling me.

I can't help but think that after a lifetime of struggle, I am finally coming to an end. ”

Boss Wu paused and laughed: "But I told them, don't worry, I will persevere, I will meet you again one day, don't be sad." ”

Boss Wu's words were once again woven into a painting in Nangong Yu's mind, but it gradually changed and became another picture hidden deep in Nangong Yu's mind.

"Hospital bed...... ......"

As early as the moment he heard the word "hospital bed", Nangong Yu's crystal eyes seemed to reflect a picture.

The short-haired girl was lying on the hospital bed, and the ticking sound was speaking for this tenacious life. Every minute and every second, it touches the heart of the girl next to the bed.

The incessant dripping echoed in her ears, and the girl listened attentively, as if listening to the echo of her life, and as if she was afraid that it would stop.

Looking at the appearance of the short-haired girl at this time, a determination filled her.

She had a goal, and no matter what, she had to wake her up and keep her alive. Even if a demon suddenly popped up at this time and wanted to exchange her soul for the life of a short-haired girl, she would not hesitate at all.

After all, that's the person she loves and loves her deeply.

"Don't give up hope...... Sister...... I'm going to be fine...... I also hope that sister, you must wait for me...... We're going to live together, aren't we?"

The short-haired girl's smile turned into a warm current that inspired her, turning her cold and hard heart into warm cotton wool.

"yes...... We will be saved, dear sister......"

The smile quietly climbed up the corner of Nangong Yu's mouth and quietly faded away. Under Boss Wu's somewhat surprised gaze, Nangong Yu felt a little itchy on his cheeks, and wiped it lightly only to find that he had cried.

Boss Wu shrugged his shoulders with a smile, gently stroked Nangong Yu's head, and stopped talking.

"It's been many years since I came into this world, and even though I say I don't care about them, I've actually been thinking about them. Boss Wu looked at the photo again, touching the slightly yellowed old photo, "After all, they are my family and have been with me for so many years." I really feel very distressed when I think of the way they looked at me the day I came here. ”

"So, would you choose to open a bookstore here, just to wait for them?" Nangong Yu said and wiped his eyes again.

Boss Wu smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's right." Actually, I take in the homeless, more because I don't like people and want someone to talk to......"

"Oh, your business is very good. ”

A sudden arrogant shout instantly shattered the peace of the bookstore and disturbed the harmony of Fang Cai, and they didn't need to look up to know who they were.

Looking at the hideous-looking hooligans, Boss Wu did not hesitate at all, stood up and took out the money in the cash register, and gave it to the group of intruders.

After counting the money and making sure the amount was correct, they left without saying a word.

Nangong Yu was stunned the whole time, she felt that she would hand over her hard-earned money so cooperatively, and Boss Wu must have had an indescribable experience. That's why he cherishes his life at this time and doesn't hesitate to hand over the "protection fee".

The moment the engine sounded, all the nervous hearts in the bookstore relaxed.

"Boss Wu...... They are...... Who?"

"Former members of the security team who were laid off......" Boss Wu said and looked at Nangong Yu, but noticed the wound on her hand, "You are injured, how did you get ......?"

After that, the puzzled Boss Wu took out the medicine box, but was rejected by Nangong Yu. Nangong Yu told Boss Wu that she only needed a Band-Aid.

"Boss Wu...... You say they're ex-vigilantes...... What does that mean......"

Faced with Nangong Yu's question, Boss Wu shook his head helplessly, even if he didn't say a word, Nangong Yu could see the answer from his face.

In the past, the security team was as kind as relatives in the eyes of people, and they would even pay their own wages to help the poor homeless. At that time, people were thrilled to hear the name "vigilante".

However, over time, one event after another changed them completely.

There are more and more greedy people, more and more selfish people, and those who are willing to give have gradually become people who have been displaced, and the whole team has subtly undergone earth-shaking changes.

People are beginning to miss the vigilantes they used to have, whether they are willing to give back or selfish.

However, that vigilante is long gone. Maybe now you are walking down the street, and the person who suddenly pounces on you on the side of the road and begs for food is a former member of the security team. Perhaps the disgusting members of the security team who oppressed the people at those times were also members of the simple security team.

Subsequently, the former security team underwent a huge change, and after the reorganization, it became rational and focused only on everything necessary for the position. Of course, the love for the people is definitely preserved, but they are no longer the vigilantes they once were.

"Boss Wu, I'll buy a book. ”

A young man walks up to the counter and places a book on the counter.

It was a very expensive book, and it cost 258 yuan after the discount, but the young man refused the discount, put 360 yuan on the counter and turned around.

In this bookstore, this is a very common phenomenon, whenever Boss Wu is squeezed, many customers who are usually hesitant to buy a book will always buy a book without hesitation, even if the book has been read several times.

Because none of them wanted this bookstore to disappear, their affection for it was like home.

Boss Wu understood what they meant, and anyway, it was a legitimate deal, so he didn't say anything. Until he got the money and opened the cash register again, the whole person was stunned.

Looking at the cash register, which was no different from usual, he always felt that something was wrong, but he frowned, and he could not think of what was wrong.

"Boss Wu, what's wrong, why are you stunned?"

Nangong Yu saw that Boss Wu was stunned for a long time and did not move, so he asked tentatively. With this question, Boss Wu immediately thought of something and roughly understood what was going on, so he looked at Nangong Yu behind him.

After just a few seconds of looking at each other, Nangong Yu seemed to understand the suspicion in Boss Wu's eyes, but she still pretended not to know anything.

After packing up the cash register, Boss Wu sat down next to Nangong Yu again, and this time, he suddenly talked about another somewhat sensitive topic: "Kid, do you know that the mayor was attacked not long ago. ”

Boss Wu deliberately suppressed his voice, as if he was afraid that others would hear it, but in Nangong Yu's eyes, he always felt that there was something else. The moment the words entered his ears, Boss Wu noticed that Nangong Yu's expression was very stiff, and then deliberately pretended to be surprised.

"Huh? yes...... Is it, is it serious......" Nangong Yu paused, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, "Wait...... Boss Wu, why are you talking to me about this...... This should be a sensitive topic...... And also...... How do you know......"

Boss Wu smiled knowingly, as if he had confirmed something, and then slowly stood up and mysteriously left the last sentence:

"I'm waiting for you at this bookstore tonight at half past twelve, I have something to show you. ”
