Chapter 165: Fate
Just a wall away, on one side is a quiet wood, on the other side is the busy traffic of the city, here you can clearly hear the sound of car horns outside, but people on the road should not notice that inside the tall wall is actually an orphanage.
Lin Yu immediately saw the back of the little boy, he was sitting on the tree with the thickest trunk, the branches just provided him with an excellent cushion, and the little boy sat and blended into the whole tree. His little head couldn't help but poke high up, as if listening for movement beyond the walls.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Lin Yu's heart sank, he remembered that the little boy said that the orphanage was a hell, and he wanted to leave here on a white horse turned into an orange tree. Judging from the current situation, the little boy does look like a bird imprisoned inside the wall.
Lin Yu paused, and then said loudly to the little boy, "Wow, you're riding on the back of an elephant!"
The little boy quickly turned around, and this time his face was full of surprise, "Can you see this elephant too?"
Lin Yu finally came up with this trick really worked, there are all kinds of animals in the little boy's zoo, among which the thickest trunk is naturally the elephant, Lin Yu quickly deduced it by comparing it with the surrounding trees, and he directly said the little boy's fantasy of the animal, and the boy will naturally be delighted.
"Of course I can see it," Lin Yu nodded very affirmatively, "This elephant you are riding is the size of a house, and there is a zebra running around next to it, oh my God, is there a giraffe? It is so tall that I almost didn't even see its head..."
Lin Yu tried his best to use his imagination, and told all the animals that the old dean told him, and under his vivid description, it was as if he really saw a zoo presented in front of him.
This is undoubtedly the biggest killer for the little boy, his zoo is like a castle living in his heart, the little boy does not feel that there is anyone else who can see it except himself, because even the old dean at that time did not see it, and still relied on himself to tell him little by little. So now there is a stranger who has seen every animal in the zoo clearly, and the little boy has a heartfelt joy on his face.
Lin Yu was soon allowed to enter the little boy's animal world, he rode a zebra with the little boy, went to tease the fierce lion, and slept beautifully on the back of the elephant, and the two of them had a lot of fun in this zoo that only belonged to them...
Before he knew it, the day passed quickly, and when the sky was about to darken, Lin Yu told the little boy that he was leaving. "I'll come to see you next week," Lin Yu said with a smile.
The little boy raised his head in some surprise, he had seen too many college students who came here to volunteer, and no one would return to the orphanage after the event, so the little boy didn't want to play with these people at all, of course, he felt that Lin Yu was also included. So at first, the little boy refused to play with Lin Yu, preferring to talk to his orange tree or simply stay alone in the zoo.
"You'll be here next week?" the little boy's eyes flashed with a lot of surprise, and at the same time there was a hint of imperceptible anticipation.
"Come on, because I think you're my friend," Lin Yu reached out and touched the little boy's head and said, "Next time, you're going to let me come to your zoo to play." ”
When he walked out of the orchard, Lin Yu could feel that the little boy was a little closer to him, although he hadn't recognized himself as his friend yet, but at least he wouldn't be as indifferent as he had shown at the beginning.
After playing with the little boy for a day, Lin Yu finally took the first step in the arduous task, and seeing the bright smile on the little boy's face can be said to be Lin Yu's biggest gain today.
When the students of Class 7 of the Department of Computer Science left the orphanage, they all felt a sense of relief in their hearts, because in the process of accompanying the children in the past two days, they found that they were born as normal people, and having their own father and mother seemed to have become a gift from God. With these children, students will inevitably feel a lingering burden in their hearts, but at this moment, the two-day volunteer activity is over. When they got on the bus and left, their expressions were relaxed again.
Lin Yu also saw a person before leaving, a soul to be precise, it was the old dean. The old dean specially expressed his gratitude to Lin Yu, saying that he had seen Lin Yu play with the little boy for a day, and since his death, he had never seen the little boy smile like today.
Lin Yu told the old dean that this was one of his duties as a god of death, and that next Saturday, he would come to the orphanage to visit the little boy.
On the bus, looking at the traffic in the city, every time you arrive at a stop, there will be groups of people crowded on the bus like sardines, most of these people are office workers who have just left the company, each of them seems to be working hard to live, and want to use their own efforts and sweat to change their future lives.
However, can a person's life be changed by hard work? Is it possible that the moment a person is born, he will decide what kind of life he will live in this life? Lin Yu suddenly had such a thought in his mind.
Although he used to think that people's fate was in their own hands, and through hard work and hard work, they could live the life they wanted, but now it seems that there is at least one thing that people's fate is not in the hands of humans themselves, that is, Yangshou, because it is in the hands of death, which cannot be changed no matter what human efforts do.
In addition, seeing the children in the orphanage, Lin Yu naturally thought that their fate was actually doomed, and to change their lives, they might have to work ten times more than ordinary people, and the hope of success in the end was also very slim.
That's why the old dean can't let go of the little boy so much, because in his special orphan, the old dean sees the greatest possibility that his life can be changed, and the little boy is the one who can be saved among all the children.
The bus stopped at the gate of the university, and the students of Class 7 got off one after another, and Lin Yu was also the last to get off. I don't know what the scene will be like when I see the little boy again next week, will he accept me as his friend? Lin Yu had a thought in his heart, or I would prepare a small gift for him...
