Chapter 1: Black

Next Chapter

On September 15, 2018, in the middle of the month, there was no special holiday, and there was no Mid-Autumn Festival before Teacher's Day. Although the weather was cloudy, it was surprisingly muggy.

Ning Keke was wearing a black dress, but unfortunately the material was not very good, and the sweat stuck to her clothes, making her feel like there were small insects crawling on her body all the time. So much so that she could only secretly pull up her sleeves from time to time to let the cool breeze blow in to cool down.

But even in this heat, she still needs to stand here for an hour with a room full of people she doesn't know.

A basket of soup dumplings huddled together, she thought.

There is a middle-aged woman in the front holding a black and white photo crying, her ex-boyfriend's mother, yes, this is a funeral for his ex-boyfriend, out of etiquette, it is best for her to come, her best friend said.

As for how her ex-boyfriend died, to be honest, she didn't want to talk about it, for her, it was a disaster, in that way.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in front, and the crowd gathered in a swoop manner, and it turned out that her ex-boyfriend's mother was crying and was in shock. It wasn't until the people in front and behind and I pinched people with one hand that the middle-aged woman woke up slowly.

Ning Keke looked at the woman whose eyes gradually focused after she came to her senses, and fixed her eyes on her, and knew that something was wrong.

"You're a ** person*, it's all you *** who seduce my son, if it's not you..."

Scolding, infinite Zuan. There are also the seven aunts and eight aunts next to her, and at the same time give some people who don't know Amway's nonsense, a few sentences reached Ning Keke's ears, she almost had to wonder if they were all ordinary words in the dictionary, how to combine them, it was so unconventional, how ugly it sounded. Why the hell did she come? Come and scold?

She looked at the woman who was still greeting her ancestors who was almost about to be lifted, and retreated from the crowd, I don't know who threw her shoes and broke her ponytail, she had nothing to say and couldn't open her mouth, she only knew that she had never been so embarrassed, and it was not her fault that things had developed like this, and she was also helpless. Well, maybe a little, but who let him take it seriously, but what can it be, the police didn't arrest me okay!

"Funny!"

I'd rather take this skirt off now.

Hot nausea!

Running out of the hall door quickly, the cold in the aisle soothed Ning Keke's irritable heart a little.

"Zihao~ Help me." Ning Keke's voice trembled a little. Oh my God, my legs are limp.

A boy with a little pimple on his face got up from the roadside stepping stone after hearing Ning Keke's voice, and pounced on the non-existent soil, put on a smiling face that he thought was very handsome, stepped forward and stretched out his arm and said slowly:

"What's the matter, my little kitten, I'm not happy again, do I need Daddy to comfort me."

"Gun, there's someone who doesn't want to see it anymore, well~ Forget it, I don't want to say it, anyway, even if I die in the future, I don't want to come to the funeral home, it's good to just find a pit and bury it."

The boy known as Zihao pinched a disappointed expression, and pretended not to hear the second half of the sentence, and did not express any opinions.

"Okay, let's go back to school, I don't know why you have to attend a funeral. Isn't it unlucky? ”

"I don't want to talk about it anymore. never!”

"Okay, okay~ Did you buy a ticket? I'll buy it, okay. ”

Soon after they left, there was another commotion, a boy fainted, and everyone rushed him to the hospital, of course, this was just an episode, the funeral was over anyway, even if there was chaos, but so what, the mother of the deceased could not accept that her son, who had been raised so hard, said that it was gone, and cried several times. But life has to go on, and what could be more painful than not being able to come back to life after death? As for the man who fainted, if you want to know more, we need to move forward 20 minutes and continue our story from another side of the funeral.

20 minutes ago

In the funeral corner, the boy in a somewhat mixed dress twisted his head, his neck making an overwhelmed sound, he held one position for too long. In addition, he has not eaten anything for nearly two days, so he has some symptoms of hypoglycemia. Looking at the past carefully, to tell the truth, it can be described as ragged, the belt is not buttoned properly, like a clown with a tongue sticking out, the big pants are about to fall, the face is estimated to have not been washed for a long time, there are tear stains on the cheeks, the eye sockets are sunken under the glasses, and the hair is messy. If it weren't for the black silk scarf on his right arm, it would not be strange to be invited out as a beggar in the next second.

And the reason why he appeared here is because he was the deceased's best friend before his death, Xiao Yu.

They have been good friends since high school. After graduating from high school, they were admitted to the same university, although they were not in the same major, thanks to the fact that the dormitory was not far away, Xiao Yu often went to Jing Haoyu to play, and there was a southern classmate who often called their names strings, because Jing Haoyu said all three words, it was really a bit awkward, I heard Xiao Yu often called Haoyu, and the roommates and classmates followed suit, and even some classmates didn't remember Haoyu's surname Jing, no way, this surname is really a bit niche.

One day, Haoyu told him that he was talking about a girlfriend, of course he was very happy, this was Haoyu's first time in love, and he had to support him no matter what. It turns out that they will often get together, but after Haoyu has a girlfriend, it will become less, and Xiao Yu doesn't blame him, why does he have to go over to be a light bulb in the two-person world.

Some time ago, Haoyu saw him more often, chatting just not about his girlfriend, and he also joked if he had broken up, but after seeing that Haoyu didn't speak, he was afraid of hitting him, so he changed the topic.

Really, really, really, so sorry!

Xiao Yu really regretted it, if he continued to talk about his girlfriend at that time, wouldn't it be like this, I can encourage him and make him happy, really, really, I was wrong.

When Xiao Yu received the last QQ message from Haoyu "I really love her so much" and felt wrong, it was too late after all.

Haoyu jumped from the laboratory building next to the girls' dormitory and died on the spot.

When Xiao Yu heard that someone had jumped off the building and ran to see the excitement, he would never forget the scene of his best friend lying in a pool of blood.

The vision gradually blurred, and the gradually noisy voice of the mourning hall pulled Xiao Yu's thoughts back, and when Xiao Yu swept over to see clearly the person who was scolding his aunt, he only felt that the blood rushed to his brain,

"That sow, how dare she, how dare she appear here." But the sudden feeling of weakness invaded him, and he did not come forward to question her, or give her a big mouth, because, in front of him, it was dark, and he had fainted. After that, the staff found someone lying unconscious on the ground and quickly called 120.

~

The smell of disinfectant water, Xiao Yu didn't like this smell at all, the air was filled with this on the day Haoyu died, and the next day, needless to say people, the blood stains were gone, and even the green bricks were replaced, which was full of ridicule.

Seeing Xiao Yu waking up, the middle-aged woman next to her breathed a sigh of relief,

"Yuyu, you're scared to death of your mother, your mother knows what happened, it's not your fault, but Haoyu has left, don't scare your mother, let's not go to school first, rest at home, mom please."

Xiao Yu hummed and let his mother leave, wanting to be alone and quiet.

Watching the glucose water fall drop by drop, tears flowed out with drop by drop. He hated the cold of the place where the infusion was placed, and it reminded him that his best friend had no temperature anymore and that he couldn't change the fact. Unconsciously, Xiao Yu made a voice that he didn't even know what it was, his body coiled together, and he seemed to be saying,

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...

The next day, when she was discharged from the hospital, Xiao Yu's mother sighed silently when she saw the bloody tooth marks on the quilt when she was packing up. She looked at her son who was standing in front of the window with a new look but an indifferent expression, and shouted softly, "Yuyu, let's go, your father has come back from out of town, just so let's go out for dinner together, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Go home, I'm tired."

"Okay."

No matter how Xiao Yu's mother chatted in the car, Xiao Yu just hummed casually, or didn't speak directly. His body curled up in the back seat, as if he was holding something in his arms, but it was still like that, lifeless like a dead fish.

After returning home, Xiao Yu has been hiding in his room, lying aimlessly, staring at the ceiling with his eyes blank. Sometimes I have to cry for a while. There was nothing the parents could do when they saw Xiao Yu's state, and they also found a psychiatrist during the period, and after understanding that there was no big problem, they were just overly sad and couldn't do anything but be anxious.

For nearly a week, Xiao Yu must dream of Haoyu every night when he sleeps, sometimes offering flowers to Ning Keke with blood all over his body, sometimes he is covered in blood, Haoyu is lying in his arms, and more importantly, Haoyu is full of resentful questioning.

Why don't you help me?

This is my fault, and unconsciously, Xiao Yu always blames himself for the fault. The flies in trouble, thinking that they are flying freely, keep hitting the barrier called glass. In the end, after questioning myself several times in a row, this guilt finally deteriorated.

That woman, that woman how could say that.

After Haoyu jumped off the building, the police unlocked the mobile phone left at the scene, in the recent QQ message, there was a 10-minute voice chat with Ning Keke, and the important thing is that Ning Ke Ke attached a sentence to the back,

"If you really love me, you can die, don't bother me!"

And in Xiao Yu's opinion, this sentence directly led to Haoyu's suicide, and the vicious woman didn't have anything to do!

The most devastating thing for Xiao Yu was the last message sent by Haoyu, to himself,

"I really love her."

But I didn't see it when I was playing a game, and when I saw it again, the news of jumping off the building had already come.

Xiao Yu really can't accept it, he can't accept that his best friend failed him when he needed him the most, he couldn't be by his side, he listened to his unhappiness, he was really sorry for him! Xiao Yu hated it, when he came back from the hospital, he unloaded all the games, he hated the games, and he hated himself even more, not to mention how much he hated Ning Keke.

"Why wouldn't it be you who died!" Every time Xiao Yu's heart hurts so much that he cries, he repeats this sentence.

But what's the use of that, he's never been a strong man, and he doesn't know what to do. Would it rather take a knife and stab him to death? No kidding, what is that, continuing to bear greater culpability?

He is very envious of Haoyu, because Haoyu has a temperament, an attractive temperament, people will always be attracted to Haoyu, and they don't feel that they are gathered around him, and he is one of those people.

In the first year of junior high school, the new environment, new faces, everything was so embarrassing, at that time he felt that he could not sit or stand, he could only curl up in his corner and stare out the window, not wanting to see anything but looking into everything. Then, Haoyu appeared.

"We both have Yu in our names, what's the matter, I'm also alone, go out with me."

He swore that he had never seen such a hot but warm light, and he agreed, he knew that Haoyu would never be alone, so whether it was really Haoyu who wanted to make friends, or who was pitiful to himself like a poor stray cat picking himself up, fearless, I really didn't want to be alone anymore. Since then, he has been like an asteroid, orbiting a celestial body called Haoyu, and despite the many moons around, he doesn't care. Sometimes, there are also selfish thoughts, wanting to be left alone with Haoyu, he thinks that this is unrealistic after all, and he doesn't want his strange feelings to affect Haoyu.

Unexpectedly, in the end, he succeeded, and when he arrived at the university, he was left to accompany him, and for a while Xiao Yu had a kind of pleasure that Sima Yi had to survive Zhuge Liang. For six years, only he accompanied Haoyu to the same university.

But why did you jump off the building!

Xiao Yu still couldn't accept this fact, after shouting in the house several times, he was going to suffocate, if he also died, would it be easy, and even he denied himself like this.

Finally once, Xiao Yu, who had a mental breakdown again, woke up, and all his incompetence was transferred to hatred for Ning Keke, he couldn't be satisfied with his mouth, he vowed to destroy Ning Keke!

"If she can fall in love with me the way Xiao Yu fell in love with her, everything will be easier." The primitive man with his forehead full of green tendons and impotent rage is probably very appropriate to describe it.

Xiao Yu sat in front of the mirror and looked at himself, with 500-degree myopia glasses, protruding goldfish-like eyes, small black spots on half of his face, and braces that he had worn for two years, he was really worthy of being an ugly man.

I can change it, I have to let Ning be cute with me, and then, ruin her when she loves me the most, and tell her that I never loved her! Xiao Yu thought so, he got up and took a deep breath, and shouted to his mother who was busy in the kitchen,

"Mom, I want to have myopia correction surgery, and besides, my braces can be removed."

The first complete sentence of her son's reticent son after a week of speaking, Xiao Yu's mother didn't expect it to be this, but she wouldn't refuse, whatever her son wanted must satisfy him now, even if it was her life.

Ning Keke has been a little uneasy since she returned to school, to be honest, she was really scared, every time she passed by the laboratory building, she unconsciously sped up, as if something was following her.

She once thought that she would be pointed at at school and live a life where she was poked in the back every day. In fact, nothing happened, and people continued to live a normal life, at three o'clock every day, going to class, eating, sleeping, and carefree.

However, this incident still affected her, and the people in the dormitory avoided her, and even Lin Zihao, who kept saying that he loved you thousands of times, ignored her a little. In any case, Ning Keke would rather have someone to rely on and listen to her tell about the recent hardships.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but open her mouth to the people around her,

"I really don't know Haoyu...", but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by someone next to her.

"I'd rather have you enough, every day is this set of annoyance, Lao Tzu's ears are going to vomit, at the beginning, I can still be interested. But! Miss, can you stop talking about the things between you and Jing Haoyu, I can recite the full text more than ten times a day. ”

"You!" Ning Keke couldn't imagine that Lin Zihao, who had always been obedient to herself, would dare to talk to herself like this, and for a while, she couldn't say anything in her chest.

"What are you, I'm fed up anyway, I'll just say it directly, pull me out and vent if there's anything to do, I've had enough of the little girl's game, is the topic of no nutrition interesting every day? It's better to be like you said to that person, break up peacefully, don't pester me, I Lin Zihao don't want to throw garbage whenever you want! ”

Ning Keke couldn't understand the slow-motion footage in the movie, the hysterical roar, the hair and saliva floating in the air, the expression so hideous that every wrinkle was clearly visible. Now, she is actually in the bridge of this kind of movie, Lin Zihao's indulgent emotional expression is so ridiculous, she is also so ridiculous, and there are passers-by with excited expressions watching the excitement.

Ning Keke didn't do anything, standing alone in place, watching the man's clothes flick and turn around and abandon her with what he thought was very handsome, a second or a century, she couldn't stay anymore, she just wanted to leave here quickly, anywhere, she was about to be unable to suppress her tears, and finally dignity, she must not cry! After running around a corner, a boy collided head-on with her, and the bag in the boy's hand fell to the ground, scattering vegetables and rice on the ground.

Why can't anything happen as you want, and if you walk a road, you'll be hit by someone, why should everyone be against me, what's wrong with the world. Ning Keke simply squatted on the ground and cried. The boy on the side was a little at a loss, the stunned pestle looked at Ning Keke crying loudly, the people around him slowed down when they passed by, and some people deliberately turned around, wanting to see how the imaginary scumbag and weak woman's drama developed. After a long time, the boy broke the silence.

"Sorry for knocking you down."

"It's okay, can I ask you to leave, forget it, I'll go." After that, Ning Keke got up and wanted to leave, like a fried cat venting his unhappiness indiscriminately. But the man did not stop faintly blocking her way, and when she looked up, the first thing that caught her eye was a pair of puzzled eyes, shining with a beautiful tan reflection in the sunlight. The boy gently shook off the remnants of the vegetable soup in his hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Maybe we can have a meal together, you see that my lunch has also been knocked over by you, and I have a treat." ”

"No need, I'll pay you how much money."

"I'm sorry, I'm more interested in why you're so sad than lunch, would you like to talk, maybe I'm a good listener, or you can continue to cry alone for a while. Or will we continue to face each other like this awkwardly? ”

Then the boy bent down and whispered, "Let's go, I feel like the cleaning aunt is coming to arrest me." ”

Listening to the strange boy's words for no reason, Ning Keke was suddenly amused, she didn't know why she agreed, maybe she really wanted to find someone to confide in her unhappiness and chat, who knows.

"My name is Ning Keke."

"Hello, I'm Xiao Yu."
