The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and I don't know if I can find Xia Qiao if I go on like this

I guess I've braved the rain to find someone like this before

But I do hate it a little bit

"Xia Qiao, Xia Qiao" muttered the name while shuttling through the dense bushes

Little by little, my mind drew her appearance, and slowly the outline began to become clear, but slowly blurred, as if I was looking for something from the deepest part of my memory, like the feeling of meeting an old person I hadn't seen for many years

But of course Xia Qiao is not, I only met her in high school, if I accurately give a definition of 'knowing', then the time should be fixed at the moment when she ran over to me and Lin Yi

It was still very dark, and I couldn't tell what time it was

It seems that I'm starting to worry a little about Lin Yi's situation, is it really okay to leave her there alone?

Now I am struggling with a question in my heart, probably everyone will have this mental journey: 'Should I stay with Lin Yi and wait for the teacher to come to the rescue, and then go to Xia Qiao together?' ’

But like most people, there is no regret medicine, and maybe it's really like Lin Yi said, I'm a little worried about Xia Qiao

What has always been in my eyes is rain and tall trees, and thunder ringing in my ears every few tens of seconds

Until a small shadow broke into my heart through my eyes

'Like an abandoned dog' (Osamu Dazai)

The vague memories finally gathered together and formed a familiar picture

Four years ago, the day of the end of the first year of military training, it was supposed to be a day off, but the sudden rain disrupted most people's plans, of course, it was nothing more than news about going to the game hall to play games or go shopping together

Well, the guy who didn't have an umbrella either rushed into the rain like a warrior, or had a parent pick him up, and I was left to criticize the education because of a little mistake, but luckily, I had an umbrella, so I just had to count the number of little bugs that sheltered from the rain on the edge of the office window, and wait for the teacher to finish the whole bunch of unnutritious words

By the time the 'Mediterranean' dean finished speaking, it was almost seven o'clock, and it might have been just enough for dinner when he got back, but it was still raining so hard outside

Prop up the umbrella and prepare to be a 'shield warrior'

But there was a girl standing in the hall of the school building, which was supposed to be empty, as if she was hesitating to fight the rain

The girl seemed to have made up her mind and put her bag on her head

"Hey, wait, let's do it together"

I encapsulated her body in an umbrella, the girl's body was relatively small, and the umbrella was just big enough for the two of us

The girl looked at me stunned, then lowered her head, as if blushing a little, after all, her ears had betrayed her

"Thank you, thank you!"

Well, the rain seemed heavier that day than it is now, and it seemed to be thundering that day, and every time the thunder sounded, the girl moved closer to me, and then blushed and pulled away

In that case, there is really only one word to describe "very cute"

That's kind of how it feels

The name "Yin Qiao" seems to be a little rusty when it comes out of my mouth now, but it still habitually hides a trace of tenderness

The little shadow in front of me seemed to tremble at the name, and then slowly raised its head to look at me

The glasses had been taken off, and the mixture of tears and rain hung on his face

Well, it feels so familiar
