Jiawei raised his hand to look at the sky, a few rays of sunlight were reflected into Jiawei's eyes through the gap between his fingers, and the early morning sun was a little dazzling. Looking back at the surging crowd around him, he was busy running non-stop, as if a guy named Destiny was controlling the bustling crowd on this side of the land to operate in a staggered and unrelated manner, making them irreversibly turn under the gears of their own fate, so accurate that they couldn't even step out of the next mistake, and then admired their tired but unstoppable appearance. A reckless guy crashed into Jiawei without warning, making Jiawei suddenly return to reality, the crowds of people around him and the hustle and bustle of the street made Jiawei dodge in this narrow street without interruption, avoiding contact with those who were reckless, and the inability to dodge and the increasing crowd made the irritability more and more intensified, but the figure that appeared in his mind made himself settle down a little bit. Let yourself stand quietly in place, motionless, and let the crowds of people you dislike keep shuttling around you.

I've been standing in this place for two years, and I wonder if it will leave any traces of me?

Suddenly, a faint body fragrance came, and his eyes went black.

"Guess who I am." Pretending to be rough in pronunciation can't hide the sound of a silver bell.

"Menghan." The boy's voice was as flat as the calm of the sea, as if nothing around him could make a ripple.

"It's boring, you don't give any surprises after practicing the voice for several days, can't you guess it like someone else."

The vision immediately returned to his eyes, and Jia Wei turned his head to look at the guy he was most familiar with in his mind. The loose school uniform in the breeze wrapped the thin body tightly, the goose-egg-like cheeks matched with big eyes shining with a sparkling look, and the mouth that pretended to be angry couldn't help but laugh when Jiawei turned around. The boy's expression was as unfazed as marble.

"Only you would do something like this kid wouldn't do."

"I did it because I wasn't a kid." Meng Han stuck out his tongue.

"Let's go, or I'll be late for a while" The boy lowered his head slightly to hide his slightly red cheeks, but he didn't know that he had already been caught in the girl's eyes.

The girl jumped forward and walked forward. Jia Wei couldn't help sighing, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised on his face.

The elf-like girl in front of her and the boy next to her who exuded deep melancholy seemed so incompatible, as if the scene of half sunny and half dark clouds on the horizon made the people around them can't help but look sideways, imagining why such two people would walk together. The girl kept talking on the road, and the boy always responded occasionally, and even the number of words in the response was pitiful, but it did not disturb the girl's interest at all, forming an independent scenery in this noisy street.

"I'll see you after school."

"Yes."

The girl jumped into the classroom of the second class of the second year, and Jiawei immediately felt that the occasional sunlight shrank back, accompanied by the damp cold that he was familiar with, and slowly walked into the second and twelfth class.

"Teng Jiawei, you didn't eat breakfast, your early reading is about to start, and you are still walking so leisurely, do you know that you are about to take the entrance exam." Jiawei didn't need to look to know that the head teacher was looking at him with a bored face.

"Haven't you started yet?" Jiawei walked past the head teacher without even raising his head.

"Hmph, hopeless boy." The head teacher cursed in a low voice. Everyone went on doing their thing as if nothing had happened. Jiawei did the same, tidying up the desk and taking out the textbook. The letters in the English books seem to be the spells of a distant world, and he is just a Muggle who doesn't understand spells.

yo,yo

yo,yo

your honour please

gotta believe what I say

what I will tell

happened just the other day

I must confess

Because I've had about enough

Jiawei slowly opened his eyes and looked at the chandelier on the roof, his ears were constantly singing "All Rise" loudly, and he half-sat up to see the sunlight shining through the curtains on the delicate wallpaper, and the spacious and empty rooms around him, which made Jiawei realize that he had long passed that green years. Jiawei stood up, turned off the alarm clock, and then walked to the bathroom, the room was so quiet that he could hear every step and every breath clearly. Turning on the faucet, Jia Wei looked at the person in the mirror, except for the vague facial features and the appearance of the year, there was no resemblance to the boy in the dream in other places.

It's this dream again, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye, but the thick memories of the past often appear in my mind. So many things have happened after such a long time, but I still can't help but recall that memory, maybe this is the most profound part of my life. The water rattled, but Jiawei didn't seem to hear anything, just sighed softly.

Menghan, you're okay.

In the same place, there are unfamiliar streets and unfamiliar faces, and the only thing that is the same is the still noisy crowd. I haven't been to a place for many years, and when I come back, I find that things have long been different. Jia Wei looked out the car window in the hope of finding some fragments of the dream scene from these places, and found the stone slab that he had stepped on for two years, but he could only see the towering buildings and the long and wide road, and the simple buildings and mottled stone slabs crawling with creepers were long gone.

When he came to the school gate, Jiawei was not only embarrassed, but even the school gate had changed, the old and low school gate had long been replaced by a majestic appearance, and the only thing that could make Jiawei confirm that he was not wrong was the eye-catching school name at the door and the wall covered with medals. There was a figure at the door that seemed to be similar, Jia Wei walked in and saw this slightly rickety middle-aged woman with a smile on her face, but the smile distorted the wrinkles on her whole face, and those wrinkles were like many caterpillars wriggling on her face, Jia Wei suddenly felt a convulsion in his stomach, if he hadn't eaten anything in the morning, he even suspected that he would have vomited on the spot.

"Jiawei, I knew that one day I would fight for our class 12 of 08, and you are welcome back." The woman tried to squeeze out the smile again, making her smile more natural, but the hard lines betrayed him unreservedly.

Well, thank you, teacher, that is the teacher's cultivation back then. Jia Wei exudes a friendly smile, this kind of smile has been honed in society for many years, Jia Wei believes that he can't see a fake smile even in the mirror. Indeed, Jiawei did the same, repeatedly practicing his smile in front of the mirror until he couldn't see it, after all, a friendly smirk is a basic skill for survival in society. The smile on the woman's face finally became natural, and such a smile finally made Jiawei feel better. Although Jiawei couldn't help but feel disgusted because of his disobedience.

I've learned to be hypocritical, but I didn't expect that ten years later, I would be the same as the woman in front of me. If the woman turned around at this time, she would definitely be able to detect the trace of disgust that flashed on Jiawei's face.

I believe that many years ago, everyone, including myself, would never have imagined that today's self would come back as an excellent graduate.
