Chapter 98: Noon
At noon, the temperature rose, and the shadows cast by the walls on both sides became shorter and narrower, and there was no shade, so the four of them simply stopped exploring.
They were resting in a fruit shop.
Numerous shops and concrete form this "wall".
There was watermelon in the fruit shop, and there was ice cream in the shaved ice shop next door, and the decoration of that shop had too many mirrors.
Bai Youwei ate watermelon, blew the air conditioner, and sighed again in her heart: Electricity is really a great invention.
Tan Xiao found that there was a sports goods store pressed on top of the fruit store, and he wanted to climb up to take a look on a whim, but Mr. Cheng was afraid that he would fall down, so he went out with a watermelon and watched nervously at the bottom.
It was quiet all around, only the hum of the air conditioner.
Bai Youwei stopped after eating a few mouthfuls of watermelon, her eyes narrowed slightly, and the tranquility of the afternoon made her feel drowsy.
The dozen or so watermelons in front of her were all gnawed once, and the triangular watermelon petals, each of which lacked the top sharp corner.
Shen Mo was speechless.
Although she can eat the watermelon in the whole store, but such a violent behavior is really impossible for ordinary people to do.
I was about to say a few words to her, but I saw that she had already squinted her eyes and was napping, and after thinking about it, I still forgot it.
……
Bai Youwei's nap didn't last long.
Tanxiao threw a baseball bat from upstairs, and the thud woke her up.
Shen Mo saw that her eyes widened at that moment, like a frightened cat, and even her pupils were shining, and she thought she was going to have another seizure, but she only stayed for two seconds before returning to normal.
I didn't get out of bed.
Tanxiao threw down several things, and she went out in high spirits, and sitting in a wheelchair did not prevent her from joining in the fun: "Is there anything else?" Anything else? ”
Talking and laughing, he shouted in his voice: "Do you want roller skates?" ”
Bai Youwei: "Throw it down, throw it down!" ”
Shen Mo: "......"
He asked, "What do you want roller skates for?" ”
"Don't do anything." Bai Youwei's eyes lit up and she looked at the height, "It's fun to watch him throw things." ”
Shen Mo: "............"
……
Tan Xiao likes sports, so he turned the sporting goods store upside down, basketball, football and badminton, sneakers, sports hats and sweatshirts are also his favorites.
He threw down a pile of sports goods, and then picked and picked through the pile with Teacher Cheng.
Shen Mo stood not far away and chatted with Bai Youwei: "Why is there only talk and laughter and no change?" ”
"Because he's too simple." Bai Youwei curled the corners of her mouth slightly, "There is no dark side, no careful thinking, no matter whether it is good or bad, it is put on the surface, such a person, there is nothing to be done about him in the mirror." ”
Shen Mo realized, "That thing in the mirror is our dark side?" ”
"It can't be said to be the dark side......" Bai Youwei thought for a while and put it another way, "It's more like a negative performance, something we subconsciously hate, avoid, and unwilling to accept." Teacher Cheng seems to be open-minded, but he is actually afraid that he will be weak and aging day by day, and you, righteous and self-sacrificing, look like a hero......"
She paused and squinted her eyes slightly at Shen Mo, "But actually, you don't care about this world at all. You save and help people, just because of professional requirements or the influence of education from childhood to adulthood, your heart is actually colder than anyone else. ”
Shen Mo's eyes were heavy and he stared at her.
His pupils were pitch black, like an endless abyss, and all emotions were hidden in the depths.
After a while, he spoke: "What about you?" ”
"I'm ......"
Bai Youwei recalled that crying face and couldn't help but chuckle.
"I'm a coward."
