Chapter 12: A Broken Past
The rain has stopped.
The clouds in the night sky began to dissipate, precipitating from a blurred gray to a dull black, revealing the stars behind them. The rain that has just fallen makes the air moist, and the streets and alleys have a rare feeling of freshness.
Perhaps because of the remaining standing water, there are not as many pedestrians on the streets as there used to be.
Lu Mingfei scratched his messy hair, stared at the two eyes that were slightly bloodshot, his fingers seemed to be still reminiscing about the "battle" just now, so he twitched slightly, and the whole person collapsed and slowly walked out of the Internet café.
Although it is said that there are ten things that are unsatisfactory in life, this time he really felt what real bad luck is.
God knows what the bunch of "Schwarzeneggers" in the school work department thought, and they slaughtered all the turnips and green onions with a large Swiss army knife "Ka Ka Ka...... I don't need to see your skill at slicing your enemies into neat pieces! In addition, it's just the last toilet seat, can you use an electric drill to make a big move? The toilet is about to be demolished by you!
All in all, looking at the appearance of his uncle and aunt and the normal cousin of Double 160, it is probably unlikely that he will go back again.
"Boss, a cup of plain milk tea and a delicious cake ......"
Lu Mingfei walked weakly to a nearby bubble tea shop, and he didn't eat anything else except for a little pizza at the noon literary club party. In addition, the setbacks he suffered today are not small, so he still plans to spend a small meal and sacrifice a good sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple, which is not a vent.
The middle-aged female boss glanced at him lightly, obviously because the store was next to the Internet café, so she had long been surprised by these emaciated teenagers who were on the Internet, and turned around and began to make milk tea.
Lu Mingfei turned on his phone to play a game, but unfortunately found that the battery was still 2% - in terms of his luck, it can only be said that it was unexpected.
Lying on the table in the habitual posture of high school classes, ignoring the suspiciously shaped stains, Lu Mingfei just stared at the white tiles in the store with blank eyes, as if he wanted to stare at a flower—but he really saw a flower.
Chen Wenwen...... It's you, right? ”
Lu Mingfei was a little surprised, and he didn't dare to say hello too loudly, and he didn't know if it was because his current image was too decadent and decaying, and it didn't match the chic of the first bold body on the red list that year, or because of the embarrassment caused by various feelings.
“…… Ah, Lu Mingfei? ”
Chen Wenwen's skin seemed to be a little pale, absent-minded, she walked like a floating female ghost, and she was stunned for several seconds in the face of Lu Mingfei before she reacted, squeezing out a reluctant smile. Even so, Lu Mingfei didn't feel anything ugly, or rather, she now had a more weak sense of beauty.
"I thought I had the wrong person...... That, what's going on? Is there anything I can help with? ”
He finally mustered up the courage to ask, probably because the life of the Kassel Academy gave him a little strange confidence, Chen Wenwen didn't have any other ideas, and still looked quiet and polite.
"I'm sorry to show you the dejected way I look now," she probably knew she looked haggard now, "but it's fine." ”
Lu Mingfei secretly rolled his eyes, and said in his heart If you are all depressed, then he doesn't even have the qualifications to be depressed?
Chen Wenwen also ordered a cup of milk tea and sat at the same table with him.
"You must have been doing well lately, right? I remember seeing you and ...... The name is on the red list, but many people are stunned. Perhaps in order to break the awkward atmosphere, she took the lead in opening the conversation.
"Ah...... It's not bad, there is a rich boss who can cover me, and there is a rotten person who is always cheap, as well as two classmates and senior brothers with super 'mobility'; the principal of the academy is a handsome and elegant old gentleman, and the professors are also very humorous...... "After weighing it for a while, Lu Mingfei still depicted the life of the academy through guò artistic processing.
As for the multiple explosions caused by the experiments of the armament department, all kinds of dangerous practical courses, how to look at it and how to talk about it, but it has really become systematic alchemy, training on the use of firearms and the cultivation of military qualities...... Well, it's good to ignore selectively.
idle work, he didn't forget to secretly look at the girl next to him who often missed:
is still wearing a long skirt and long hair that does not eat the smell of fireworks in the world, and her complexion is as beautiful as the white dress she wore before.
Maybe her beauty is not as good as Nono's status in his heart, but she is undoubtedly the first and most special one.
"Lu Mingfei, you say, is it right or wrong to like someone?"
Without warning, the question that seemed to be like an earth-shattering shock directly smashed Lu Mingfei's idle words, he couldn't figure out Chen Wenwen's intentions, and he didn't know what to answer at all - maybe this kind of question, which was full of literary flavor no matter how you looked at it, didn't need to be answered.
How can there be a right or wrong thing about liking someone?
Lu Mingfei wanted to ask a rhetorical question, but it may take courage to say it, and it may take less high-sounding confidence. He himself did not dare to say that, for himself.
Although he was told the "secret" of that "unfortunate" by Senior Brother Chu after the party in the restaurant, he still vaguely thought about retreating, holding the expectation of "will she not know" and continued to face the person in front of him, just cowering and acting as a right-hand man who used to run errands.
Two cups of milk tea were served, Lu Mingfei hurriedly forked a small piece of cake and began to chew, and then took a big sip of milk tea, trying to fool the vague time in the past.
"--Lu Mingfei, thank you."
The voice seemed to have elongated over time, and the stereotypes and some unknown effect would be clearly fragmented, and the only thing he could keep doing in the strange distorted hallucinations and stutters was munching on cake and sipping milk tea.
When he looked up, there was only a cup of untouched milk tea left on the opposite side.
Without any reason, memories opened a floodgate, drowning out his breath with a gushing force.
The traces dissipated, as if to indicate that the past had been broken forever and so simply and rudely, and there was no possibility of healing.
"Hum—"
The mobile phone that was upside down on the table vibrated for a while, and aside from the red battery, Chu Zihang's text message calling him to gather had already been sent.
(There's nothing else to say, just wishing everyone a happy holiday...... In addition, there is a college entrance examination vacation next week, and there should be a few more chapters. )
