86_86324As expected, after crossing an empty street, I took Duan Ke to the gate of a park from memory. At the other exit of the park, that's where my house is.

The park is very clean, the air is very fresh, and there are no corpses everywhere you can see, which is simply a clean place in the city. Probably just after autumn and because no one has been cleaning for a long time, the concrete paths in the park are full of fallen leaves. Duan Ke and I walked on it, making a crisp sound with every step. Duan Ke felt funny, and stepped around in the fallen leaves like a child.

"Coming home, nervous?" Duan Ke turned around in front of him and asked me as he walked back.

"Nonsense, who knows what you'll see when you get home." I smiled and said, "What if my parents live in the house like Uncle Wang?" ”

"When you say that, I kind of want to go home and see it." Duan Ke answered, with a helpless tone in his words, and turned around after speaking.

I suddenly remembered that I had never cared about Duan Ke's background, so I asked her, "Where is your home, why haven't I heard from you?" ”

"You didn't ask." Duan Ke said without looking back, not knowing what expression was on her face.

"In Zhejiang," Duan Ke added after a pause, "I can't walk back on my feet like you." ”

Listening to her tone, I felt like I was going to cry in the next second, and I quickly thought of words that could comfort her, and after a few seconds I said to her: "It's not impossible, if we find a plane one day, and I happen to learn it again, we can take you home." ”

I can't drive, what kind of plane do I still learn, just hit the plane, forget it, I laughed as soon as I said this.

Duan Ke ignored my jokes and let my words disappear into time and space, maybe she was really homesick. A gust of wind blew somewhere, and the trees on the side of the road shook, making a rustling sound, and at the same time many leaves fell. Seeing Duan Ke facing the falling leaves in front of me, I really wanted to go up and say something to comfort her, but I can't speak or comfort people.

The scale of this park is not small, and there is an artificial lake in the park. We passed by the lake, and for some reason, the water of the lake today looks particularly clear, and the water is shimmering in the sun. I called Duan Ke, who was walking with his head bowed in front, to take a break by the lake with a cigarette.

I remember that when I used to visit the park, the lake was always full of couples, and I couldn't find a place to sit. And now, the whole park can be my territory, and I can sit wherever I want, which is really disgusting. We found a wooden chair and sat down, but Duan Ke remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking. I didn't bother to disturb her, leaning back comfortably in my chair to smoke and bask in the sun.

The wind blew behind him again, and there was the sound of fallen leaves rubbing against the ground.

"In which direction is your house?" Duan Ke suddenly asked me.

"It's just across the lake." I replied, pointing to a stone bridge across the lake, "Walk past the stone bridge in front of you, and you're almost there." ”

Duan Ke immediately stood up excitedly, stood in front of me, bowed his head and said to me, "Then let's take a boat over!" ”

I looked up at her, and said to myself, aren't you just seeing things and thinking about home, and now you're in the mood to swim in a boat again? I immediately asked her, "Where did the ship come from?" ”

"There!" Duan Ke grabbed my collar with one hand and pointed to a bamboo forest on the shore with the other.

I looked over, and sure enough, there was a row of colorful pleasure boats parked in the lake next to the bamboo forest, swinging to and fro with the rhythm of the lake.

I used to ride this kind of boat in the park a lot when I was a child, but that was more than ten years ago. was mentioned by Duan Ke like this, and I suddenly became interested, anyway, there were just the two of us around, it didn't matter if I was embarrassed or something, so I threw off my cigarette butts and walked towards the row of pleasure boats.

"It's just this green one, it's comfortable to look at." Duan Ke said, without allowing me to discuss, he stepped into the boat.

"But this one is a four-seater, and two people will be very tired when they kick it." I frowned.

"No matter, that's it, just look good and have fun." Duan Ke said to me with a sense of vigor, saying that he had already started to pedal the pedals in the boat.

I shook my head and reluctantly stepped into the boat, ready to sit next to her. Whether this girl is a college student or an elementary school student, I should have checked her documents a long time ago, I said unhappily in my heart.

I sat down facing the shore of the lake, and just as I was about to sit down, I saw a figure on the lawn a hundred and ten meters away, and a figure quickly flashed into the woods. As soon as my scalp exploded, my legs went limp, I sat down, and the boat under me immediately rocked.

"What are you doing? Follow me for my weight? Or do you want to shake me off the boat? Duan Ke immediately said to me. I ignored her, my eyes fixed on the woods, refusing to move even an inch. The woods were still there, and the branches were swinging in the breeze, but the figure just now was no longer visible.

It was so sudden that I wasn't sure if I could really see it or if I was blinded.

Who is it? I immediately thought if Uncle Wang was following us. Definitely not, Uncle Wang won't do such a boring thing, even if he is bored and wants to go out with us, he doesn't have to follow us. The three people mentioned by Uncle Wang suddenly flashed in my mind, and a chill suddenly hit my whole body.

If there was one person there just now, he must have spotted us in front of him. And, it could be stalking us.

"What's wrong with you?" Duan Ke asked me, perhaps because he saw my face change. But the look on her face told me that she probably hadn't seen that scene just now.

"It's okay, let's go, I can't wait to go home." I pretended to be calm and said to her, and after saying that, I hurriedly pedaled the pedals under my feet.

The boat slowly drifts away from the lakeshore, and the sunlight reflects on the surface of the lake, making people squint, and the whole lakeshore gradually comes into view. I rolled my eyes quickly, searching every area I could see to see if I could spot the figure again. It's a pity that I still haven't found anything.

Duan Ke stretched out his hand to play in the water, it was the first time I was so happy to see her. I didn't have the heart to join in her entertainment, and I couldn't bear to disturb her interest, so I didn't say what I thought. Maybe I'm really dazzled, a shadow doesn't mean anything, and it doesn't have to be if the monkeys from the zoo run out to find food.

Even though I comforted myself with various assumptions, my nerves still couldn't relax, and my eyes still refused to leave the lawn half an inch away. It wasn't until the lawn gradually blurred from my view and there was a jolt in the hull that I came back to my senses, and it turned out that the boat had docked.

I walked ashore and reached out to help Duan Ke, who was walking out of the boat.

"What are you doing all the time looking at the other side?" Duan Ke asked me, then let go of my hand and looked at the other side as well.

"Uh," I said in a hesitation, "I remembered something, something from the park before. ”

Duan Ke immediately looked at me with wide eyes and said, "Yo, is it a love story of youth?" ”

I gave her a blank look and immediately said no. "Let's go, and come back to play when we have time." I said again, then turned and walked towards the back door of the park.

"It's not," Duan Ke said behind me, "It's obviously just touching the scene, hahahaha." I ignored her anymore and deliberately quickened my pace, but Duan Ke caught up, walked around me, and asked, "Hurry up, tell me about your past." ”

Like a star besieged by reporters, Duan Ke and I chased out of the empty park.

It's not an exaggeration to say how I walked out of the park. But it was very difficult to hide a person in the open street, and I was relieved that I didn't find anything glaring except for one or two bodies of sanitation workers on the street. Even if there was someone there, he would find out that we were gone when he walked out of the park, I was overjoyed.

In my thoughts, I took Duan Ke to turn a corner, and walked down the road in front of me to reach the entrance of my community. I stopped thinking about the figures, and stepped on every step I took, admiring the street that was so familiar that I couldn't be more familiar. After more than a week of perseverance, I have walked through countless highways, seen countless dead people, smelled enough of rancidity, and was almost killed yesterday by someone with a knife in the neck. Now, I'm finally standing on this familiar street, waiting to accomplish the goal I've been aiming for a few days, even though it's a last resort.

Thinking about it, we walked to the door of the community. The security room was empty, and I remembered the security guard in the community in the past, and he would talk to me every day when I went home, and I also thought of Uncle Wang. There was a strong rancid smell wafting from the community, and there were a lot of dead people, and my heart was already half cold. The community is composed of families, and going home represents warmth, but the smell of these inhaled into my nose makes me unable to feel warm.

The neighborhood is very clean, and there are no dead people and no living people can be seen. Under the touch of sunlight, it seems to be a quiet and peaceful picture, but there is a steady stream of stench wafting from the building, telling you that things are not as good as you imagined. There is a kind of success, that is, after success, you have to face another kind of failure, and I stand downstairs in my house, perhaps about to experience the achievement of this set goal and the rapid decline of emotions.

Duan Ke followed me all the time, and he didn't say a word in a funny way. She must have guessed what I was thinking, and when she saw me standing still and refusing to move, she leaned over and grabbed me by the shoulder, and whispered to me, "Go ahead, whatever is up there, you will have to face it." ”

I looked at her affectionate face, and for some reason, I suddenly felt a little moved and satisfied in my heart. Yes, no matter if my parents are still alive at home, no matter what I have to face when I go upstairs, at least the girl in front of me is really caring about me.

"Hmm." I said, and then led Duan Ke towards the building, "Welcome to my house to play." ”。
