We can't get rid of the old notion that tears contain some virtue, and that black is the most appropriate color. —Virginia Woolf

The clean-up of the ruins is still ongoing.

Either everyone forgets about it, or they choose to leave.

But every time there is a lot of spring rain, you will walk to a kind of place.

On April 27, on a hill in the southwest corner of Qiantang City, it was also raining lightly.

"I was officially buried on the fifth day, and I tried to call some classmates at that time, but it was a pity that no one came...... They will be glad that you can come. ”

There is a person who has been guarding for them until now, whether it is to buy a tomb or a simple ceremony, and the girl in a white tracksuit is standing in front of the tombstone at the moment.

"Understandably, a lot of children in this city have lost loved ones." Xia Han supplemented.

The fifth is also the day when they visit their loved ones.

After speaking, Xia Han put a bouquet of blue and white flowers in front of the tombstone. Weiyang and Qingyi stood behind him.

"It's a pity that you can't burn paper money." Xia Ke said.

Probably burn some paper, and the deceased will receive real money under the nine springs, and then become rich, which is probably the funeral custom in the East. However, in recent years, the face value of paper money has been increasing, and the underworld is probably also plagued by inflation.

Having said that, because of the bad weather and the fact that fire is already forbidden in the mountains, it is also a high-sounding reason not to burn paper money, but who has to choose a light rainy day to see this tombstone that no one cares about?

For Xia Han, when he saw the two names on the tombstone, he thought of another person.

Relieved, he gave up his efforts to recall the memories, crouched down in front of the tombstone, watched quietly for a moment, and then stood up with determination.

If you have enough time, you can take Kiyoichi to the zoo in the afternoon, although the animals there don't want to come out and be seen. They probably hide in the animal hut and watch the rain in a trance, or jump around excitedly, or shrink into a ball due to the change in air pressure.

"It's just nosy." Qingyi said coldly.

"Qingyi, show respect." Weiyang glanced at her.

"Well...... I mean myself, I could have slept in my room alone, and I ended "Zero Ding Dependence" well, and then I had a happy meal when you came back, why did you come along? ”

Many people don't know how to deal with the deceased with a dull attitude, but Kiyochi doesn't care at all, even though she is wearing a black dress, a white corsage, and black leather shoes that are perfect for a funeral.

◇

After saying goodbye to Xia Ke at the bottom of the mountain, the three of them went to the zoo first, and sure enough, they didn't see any animals, and then returned to the Qingyang Pavilion.

In the cabin, listening to the sound of the rain, the trio sat by the fire. Lunch boxes, snacks and half a dozen beers are neatly placed on the table next to it.

"Are you still satisfied these days?" He said as he pulled open the beer can.

"Drink less." Weiyang reminded in a whisper, but he didn't stop it.

"Got it," Xia Han smiled slightly, "Well, by the way, I didn't see it last night." ”

The three of them looked at each other, and then were shocked.

"Brother, haven't you taken care of it these days?!" Seiichi stood up first.

"No, you didn't tell the puffs when you left. I thought you had been with me, did you see it? ”

Weiyang shook his head blankly.

It's over, it's bad. Seiichi's face became more and more frightened.

After being silent for a long time, Xia Han cleared his throat.

"First of all, the first question is, where was the puff when you left?" He tried to ask, "Didn't I go out with you?" ”

"I'll just put it in the house! I thought you'd come to the cabin and find me and bring it back. You're stupid, brother, will I take a cat out and get a job?! ”

"I see." Xia Han nodded.

"What do you mean by that?" Kiyoichi was about to cry.

After drinking the beer, he knocked on the plank, and when he reappeared a little later, the puffs were held in his arms.

"Trick me!" Qingyi slapped Xia Han hard.

"You're welcome, who told you to hang up on me all the time."

In fact, if you want to say that she is arrogant and arrogant, even if Weiyang and Qingyi are not there, just the puffs are enough to endure the summer cold.

Fortunately, he handed it over to Yueji very sensibly.

"Then again, I can't feel comfortable even after drinking," he shrugged, "it's incredible, and it stands to reason that we should remember them and leave some words of remembrance." It's a pity that I can't remember anything. ”

"That's it, so it's nosy." Kiyoichi followed to help.

Weiyang lowered his face helplessly.

"Speaking of which, there have been a terrible number of funerals in the past two years." Xia Han opened another can.

It's the same as when people meet classmates and old friends in their twenties.

Fortunately, compared to the 100-day banquet and the first birthday banquet after the wedding. The advantage of the funeral is that it is good to attend once, and the money is much less, and the men's sighs and the women's tears are over.

But it's another taste for young people to give young people. It's really not suitable for the age of death.

"This is probably the realization of being a magician." Weiyang finally spoke.

Now that you have experienced the farewell, and you have seen those clear or vague smiling faces gradually disappear behind you, you just need to turn your head and go straight towards your destination.

The expected and unconventional killings will continue to accompany us, and in the case of gradually being shrouded in darkness, such huddling together for warmth may be the external reason why the three of them inadvertently get closer together.

Just when the three of them were slightly annoyed by the light rain and muddy shoes, and the wet trousers.

Seiichi suddenly clutched his stomach and laughed.

It was as if he had seen some kind of elephant with a stomach or a saber-toothed tiger with a toothache, and he couldn't stop laughing.

"Are you alright?" The two asked in unison.

"No, brother, it's funny when I think of my cousin saying, 'It's a pity that you can't burn paper money.'"

Then he pointed to the manuscript still burning in the stove.

"It's not paper money." Weiyang replied seriously.

"No, it's not ......" Seiichi continued to hold his stomach and laugh, "This is **." ”

Or orthopedic only.

Xia Han was amused.

"You're not fooling around!" Weiyang immediately reprimanded, but he couldn't help covering his mouth.

"It's a shame that no one saw it." After a while, Kiyoichi said.

"I hope they use it." Weiyang didn't talk coldly.

"Okay, Weiyang, to be honest, you're really not good at joking." Xia Han took a blanket and put it on his lap, then closed his eyes and rested.

The meaning of this action is that it is too cold.

“…… Ahhh ”

On a cold rainy afternoon, Weiyang took a tablet, opened the movie, and watched it with Qingyi.

Because tomorrow is the midterm exam, today is a day off, and the three of them have lost the interest in tutoring.

After the smell of alcohol dissipated, the light rain also stopped, and Weiyang opened the wooden door. The sunset after the rain was particularly bright, shining into the house like dazzling tulips, and the three of them seemed to be healed all over their bodies, breathing in the fresh air soothingly.

Or, rather than mourning the memory of the deceased and the past, it is better to face the future with optimism.

But as if something very important had not been completed, Xia Han kept frowning.

What the hell is wrong with this guy? From time to time, the two girls skimmed over and found him shaking his head like a nightmare.

"Weiyang," Xia Han suddenly remembered, "I'll go to your house after the exam." ”
