Although the temperature in the Bay Area in the deep winter is not cold, the raging sea breeze is everywhere in every corner of the city, and then a hard goosebump floats on the surface of the skin, and I can't help but want to tighten the windbreaker jacket to resist the invasion and corrosion of the cold wind.

The rising morning light thinly and weakly passed through the thick fog, revealing a touch of gold between the rich gray and dark green, and sprinkled lightly, but it did not bring warmth, but outlined the coldness and quietness of the cemetery in front of him, it seemed that even the temperature of the sun gradually dissipated, exuding a shallow coolness in the depths of the soul, unconsciously, the breathing and footsteps were lightened, lest it alarm the grasshoppers in the grass, just like a lone traveler walking through the tunnel of time and space, loneliness and loneliness were wrapped around the fingertips, always lingering.

Leaving the car, along the path made of stone slabs, and climbing up the small hill of the cemetery step by step, Lu Ke and Curry were quiet, and there was a solemn sadness faintly surging between each other, not violent or heavy, just gently pulling, but making the sound redundant.

In the distance, a touch of fresh and bright golden yellow appeared at the end of the line of sight, carrying the weight of dew and the tranquility of the early morning spreading, quietly but in full bloom, attracting all the eyes that passed by inadvertently, before he had time to carefully search in the fog, Ryan's resting place jumped into Lu Ke's sight, just like Ryan happily waved his hand to say hello:

"Hey, I'm here!"

A large field of flowers is blooming proudly and crampedly, golden tulips, yellow daisies, champagne-colored roses and those unknown golden yellow flowers, flowers around the tombstone, blooming mightily, outlining a touch of brightness, bright colors have become a beautiful landscape in the severe winter, a few strokes in the solemn and gloomy cemetery to outline a touch of vitality, even the golden sunlight seems to become warm, The bright hue spreads wantonly among the dark grays and dark greens.

Golden. Yellow. Golden. It was spread out openly and lively, and even the light gray slate bricks were dyed with a layer of tender color.

Involuntarily, Lu Ke's footsteps stopped like this, standing on the steps, quietly staring at the boundless and lawless bright colors, noisy and noisy surrounding the entire tombstone, and even began to spread towards the neighbor next door, obviously there was no sound around, but he could still feel that the entire cemetery seemed to have added a touch of upgrade, rippling like a small golden ocean.

Such a sight is thrilling to overshadow words.

Curry's footsteps gradually slowed down, and finally stopped at Lu Ke's side, and the magnificent and magnificent scene in front of him crashed into his eyes, making his nose slightly sore, but he could feel the faint warm current surging in his chest, "It seems that there are not a few people who have the same idea as you, and you are still late." ”

Lu Ke's right hand held a bouquet of golden daisies, budding, as if waiting for the arrival of spring, the buds that were about to move could bloom proudly at any time, pregnant with hope in a haze and silence, and the same was true of the golden yellow in front of him.

Obviously, Lu Ke is not the only one who remembers Ryan firmly. After yesterday's game, the nine people came here for the first time, and in their own way, shared the gratifying news with Ryan, just like sharing it with every nine:

They never forgot him, much less abandoned him. In this arduous and long journey, they will go forward hand in hand; Because Ryan is also a member of the Nine, an irreplaceable and indispensable member, "Once it was nine, it will always be nine", even if Ryan wants to escape, they will not give him a chance, this is a common battle that belongs to them, no one can reach the end without anyone, Ryan needs them as if they also need Ryan, "No one is missing." ”

One. Two. Three...... One after the other, it finally evolved into the scene in front of us, quietly and openly lighting up the whole world, even the brilliance of the morning light became eclipsed, and the spiritual power of the whole city was firmly condensed in a magnificent and atmospheric manner.

The answer Lu Ke was looking for was found here.

Ryan is not alone, he is not alone, in this battle, they have thousands of comrades-in-arms to fight together, all the pressure and pain, all the difficulties and setbacks, all the fears and worries, the nine people will bear and face together, even if Lu Ke stands at the forefront and leads thousands of troops to fight, he will never have to worry about his back, because he has the strongest and most loyal backing in the world.

There was a warm current flowing in his chest, and the arc of the smile on the corner of his mouth also rose high, and Lu Ke gently bowed his head in agreement, "Yes, it seems that I'm late." ”

Then, he stepped forward again, step by step, towards Ryan's resting place.

Curry's footsteps lagged behind Lu Ke, and he hesitated slightly, and asked in a loud voice, "Bambi, uh...... Are you sure it doesn't matter? Otherwise, I'd better wait here. He wasn't quite sure if Lu Ke needed a little personal space to communicate with Ryan alone.

Lu Ke turned his head and cast his gaze, and asked Curry with his eyes for some reason, but Curry was a little nervous and didn't know how to say it accurately. Lu Ke thought about it for a moment, then reacted, and couldn't help laughing, "Hey, Mr. Curry, Ryan and I are not the kind of relationship you imagined, you can come directly, it doesn't matter." ”

That kind of relationship?

What relationship?

Curry blinked, and only half a beat later did he react to Lu Ke's ridicule and complaint, which made Curry very helpless, "I didn't mean that at all, okay......" But Lu Ke didn't wait for an explanation, turned around and continued to move forward, Curry had to call out again and again, and chased after him quickly, "Hey! Hey, Bambi! I'm serious, I just meant ...... I didn't mean that...... I didn't mean anything like that......"

Curry always felt as if he was getting darker and darker, and when he came to Lu Ke's side, he saw the cheerful smile on Lu Ke's face, and he realized that Lu Ke was deliberately playing tricks on him, which made Curry exhale depressedly, "I'm not sure if anyone has said that you are really a cunning guy!" I mean, it's definitely not the kind of devout who goes to church on Sundays or something. ”

"It's true that I don't go to church on Sundays." Lu Ke nodded and replied in the affirmative.

Curry's attack that didn't look like an attack was so soft that it was stuck in his throat, and then he could see Curry raise his hands and make a gesture of surrender, "I give up!" ”

"A wise choice." Lu Ke is simply cheap and obedient.

The footsteps stopped directly in front of the tombstone, and the soles of the feet had to be cautious, because the entire passage around them had been filled with various bouquets of flowers, which radiated from the inside to the outside, and the orderly and neat appearance looked like a work of art.

"Wow, look, there's a sea of gold where you're there, and today is no exception." Lu Ke said with a smile on his face to the lifeless tombstone in front of him, but the noisy and lively golden yellow around him was always surging in his sight, and then the whole world became vibrant again.

It's like Ryan Baldwin once was.

"I guess, you already know, we almost lost yesterday. God, the game was a real disaster, I think tomorrow's video recap, Hubble should have a cerebral blood vessel burst, how did we just push ourselves to the edge of the cliff? Believe me, if I could, I would be willing to win easily, not every time I go ashore at the last minute, no matter how strong my heart is, it will explode! ”

Lu Ke complained seriously, his gaze didn't need to be shifted at all, he could notice that Curry, who was stunned next to him, was holding back his smile very hard, "If you want to laugh, it's not good for your health, what's more, Ryan is not such a rigid person, I think, he should be able to understand my humor." ”

Poof.

Curry still didn't hold back after all, but he didn't burst into laughter either, and after laughing, he immediately controlled himself and stood next to him to remain serious.

"The good news is that we still won and made the playoffs. Hey, remember? I told you at the beginning of the season that we were going to do everything we could to defend the title this year, but you missed out on a big game, how about it, sorry? Ha ha. But the bad news is that Willis is injured, damn it; Jean was also injured, and doctors said he needed to recuperate for at least two weeks; I didn't fully recover from my injuries either, and Justin, and Big Joe, and Mike, and then and still and ...... Yes, we're in a devastated team right now, we really don't know how to play in the playoffs, phew, what a problem. ”

Lu Ke said serious topics in a relaxed tone, and there was a lot of worry in his words, but the joyful tone seemed to be joking.

Curry couldn't help but look sideways at Lu Ke, and then found a faint sadness in those eyes - Lu Ke covered it up well, if it wasn't for Curry standing next to him, he probably wouldn't have seen it at all; Only at this moment can Curry be able to capture Lu Ke's determined and tough appearance, which is also an ordinary person.

He almost forgot: Lu Ke was even a year younger than him. But Lu Ke has now become the spiritual leader of the entire San Francisco 49 people and even the entire city, so how much hope does Lu Ke carry on his shoulders? Are those pressures crushing Lu Ke's young backbone?

Faintly, Curry also somewhat understood the reason why Lu Ke visited Ryan today.
