"It's not good to hit a girl, uncle."

Suddenly, a childish voice interjected, in stark contrast to the deep voice just now.

“……”

The man's eyes widened, and I looked in the direction of the sound.

The boy named 'Ben Xu' just now - but he didn't have the girl by his side.

The man stared at Ben Xu with vicious eyes, didn't say a word, and turned around and walked towards the young man.

"Eh, uncle, what are you doing?"

Ben Xu asked, his voice innocent, and it felt like pure curiosity.

"It's not good to disturb the world of adults, little brother."

The young man spoke.

"I see, you're 'that kind of relationship.'"

Ben Xu said with a smile.

"Where did you hear these words at such a young age? Aren't you afraid of us? ”

"I'm afraid. But at the intersection behind me, there is a police station 300 meters ahead of the left and then right, which is open 24 hours a day. ”

"Ha ......"

"I told my friend who came with me that if I didn't get back to that intersection within five minutes, she would knock on the door of the police station. If I go back, forget it. ”

Ben Xu said as he approached me.

"I told you not to run around."

Ben Xu said to me that this confused me.

I probably hadn't met him before, so why did he talk to me in a tone that knew me?

Yes...... That's right.

On second thought, I seemed to understand his intentions.

"I'm sorry ......"

I bowed my head and said.

"Let's go, we're going home."

Ben Xu took my hand and ignored the two men beside him. The man is almost twice as tall as Benxu, and this incongruity makes people feel amazing.

The men also acquiesced to Benxu's behavior, and turned their heads and walked into the alley side by side - as if nothing had happened.

The sound of shoes on the floor was unusually distinct, there was no conversation between us, it was very quiet. But he never let go of the hand he was holding me.

"It's not okay to have momentum."

Finally, he spoke first.

"Only by making a few more preparations can you have confidence."

His voice was calm, but his hands were trembling slightly.

"At the same time, remember to give the other person the stairs down, don't be aggressive."

He went on to say that we turned another corner, and the girl who had just come with her was standing around the corner, carrying a plastic bag full of things.

"It's a shame that you still have the face to say: 'It's not good to beat girls', obviously you usually beat me often."

This girl seems to be called Xu Liuxin? She grumbled.

"Why, what, don't spew blood."

"Obviously! The wound on my chest is still there - believe me. ”

They began to fight again, and the atmosphere was really lively.

"Did you hear that?"

I was surprised and asked, how did she know what Ben Xu had just said when she was so far away.

"This."

Ben Xu took out a button mobile phone from his pocket, woke up the screen, and was still on the phone.

And the person of the call is-

Liu Xin raised his right hand, the same mobile phone, even the style and color are exactly the same, that is, the legendary couple machine.

"I've been talking to her all the time, just in case, even if I'm caught when I call the police, I can tell the clues out loud and around the bush so that the other side can hear."

Ben Xu said leisurely.

"I've been recording all the time, even if you sacrifice me, there is proof."

Liu Xin replied with bad intentions.

"Ah......h

I opened my mouth wide and felt incredulous.

This is what is called – multi-hand preparation?

I never thought about it and I didn't think about it.

Just watch things change and do nothing.

Looking at the boy in front of me who was about the same age as me, why was it so dazzling, I had this feeling for the first time.

I don't know how to describe this wonderful premonition in words.

Even in the dark, I could feel an indescribable light.

For the first time, I learned that weak people can actually do certain things, or in other words, only by admitting that they are weak people, will they think about so many solutions, instead of blindly relying on useless momentum to solve them.

His palms were covered with sweat, and his expression was like that of a stubborn child.

But - so warm.

"How long will you hold hands?"

Liu Xin said angrily.

"Hmm. Where, where is it. ”

Ben Xu let go in a panic, 'how can there be' seems to be his mantra.

"What's your name——?"

Suddenly, Liu Xin asked me gently.

"Ah...... Su wind chimes, the wind chimes that jingle bells. ”

“…… Oh~"

She seemed to understand.

"That, how do you write the word xin in your name......?"

This question really bothers me.

"My name is Xu Liuxin, the left sound of the word Xin is owed, and the sound is owed. Huh? Why do you know my name. ”

"The ...... I just heard"

I replied weakly.

Liu Xin did not continue to investigate. Illuminated by the streetlights, I took a closer look at her appearance. His hair was tied in two and draped on both sides of his chest, and he wore a dark red coat with open zippers to reveal a white undershirt.

"Do you two live together?"

I asked both of them.

"Stupid, stupid. How can I live together, I live in a high-rise building in the city. This guy lives by the beach, and there are mosquitoes everywhere, and sometimes bugs crawl into the house. ”

Ben Xu explained in a panic.

"Hey! There are bugs sometimes, but the sea view is beautiful. ”

"But I don't want to be bitten by mosquitoes, your face is so round, it's all bitten by mosquitoes."

"You...... What did you say? ”

Liu Xin's body trembled with anger, and he glared at Ben Xu fiercely.

"I don't want to live in your house...... Not! ”

Seeing Liu Xin's really angry expression, Ben Xu retreated and covered his mouth.

"I'm never going to let you live, never."

"I will never live there, don't worry."

Ben Xu said, and then stretched out his hand.

"Why ......?"

"It's home, it's a little bit."

Ben Xu snatched the plastic bag that Liu Xin was carrying and walked towards the beach.

At the same time, he whispered to Liu Xin:

"The hairstyle is still pretty good."

It's so good-looking...... Compared to my single ponytail. I suddenly had the thought, 'I'll just try it too.'"

"Your home is the back."

"Stupid - how could I let you walk back at night alone."

Ben Xu said, Liu Xin didn't overdo it after hearing it.

"Stupid."

She also said a word.

I'm staying where I am, what should I do?

"Little wind chime, go to my house and sit down."

"Oh no, it's getting late...... It should be early in the morning. ”

"It's only nine o'clock."

She pulled out her phone and told me.

…… What the? Nine o'clock, is it usually nine o'clock here?

Why are the streets so deserted today?

[It makes me feel like I'm in an empty world.] 】
