Chapter 213: Just ask
At his feet was a jumble of grass with a few dead leaves, and on his right was a wall of blue bricks.
Looking ahead, there is no end in sight to the wall that stretches all the way, and the same goes to the back.
The surroundings were gray, as if a layer of dust had fallen from the heavens and the earth, and everything was dyed gray.
Jace was walking along the brick courtyard wall on his legs.
It was a path he knew when he was a child, and he would walk home every time after elementary school.
And home is at the end of the road.
For countless days, he had traveled here with Ruhl, but now the latter was not by his side.
The familiar brick walls have become taller and longer, and the road seems to have no end.
After walking for a while, two hazy figures, one large and one small, appeared in front of him.
The smaller one was Ruhl, who was wearing the same school uniform as himself.
The tall one was dressed in an old strap-on overalls, a little hunchbacked, his hair was messy, his mouth was circled and his stubble was not cleaned up, and he looked unkempt.
Because he was facing away from him, Jace couldn't see what the other person looked like.
"Ruhl, why don't you wait for me to get out of school together." The childish voice came from Jace's mouth, but at this time, in his eyes, there was only Ruhr standing not far away, so he didn't feel anything wrong.
Jace shouted a few times, but Ruel turned a deaf ear, and even the tall man didn't turn around.
The tall man rubbed Ruhl's long hair with his hand, and the latter looked at him curiously.
The tall man took his hand back, then reached into his handbag and searched it.
A wooden doll was pulled out and handed to Ruhl.
Ruhl stretched out his hands and took it, holding it in the palm of his hand and playing with it.
"Ruhl, why don't you ignore me?"
Seeing that his cries didn't catch the other man's attention, Jace trotted over to Ruhl's side.
"What is this?"
"A woman's doll, is it a gift?"
Ruhl looked up, as if he had just noticed Jace, and he handed the doll to Jace, his mouth opening up and down, but Jace couldn't hear anything.
"Why don't you speak? Is this meant for me? Jace glanced at the other man, and then quickly drew his gaze to the puppet.
After holding it in his hand, he found that the doll was a wooden carving of a woman with an adult's palm, dressed neatly and neatly, with her head held high, and her head slightly raised to look ahead.
The wood carving gave Jace a sense of familiarity and strangeness, as if he had seen it before, but he couldn't remember it.
At this moment, a large palm landed on his head, warm, and gently stroked.
Jace turned to look at the tall man, his face blurred and he couldn't see what he looked like.
But Jace could feel the gaze on him.
It was a feeling of regret, Jace couldn't help but feel.
The tall man didn't say anything, didn't take back the carving, just turned around and walked away.
Looking at it from afar, after the other party's back completely disappeared into the haze, Jace felt the corners of his clothes being gently pulled.
He turned.
A pair of hands suddenly reached out and snatched the wood carving away.
The sheer strength of the strength surprised Jace.
But before he could say anything, Ruhl lowered his head and hugged the body of the wooden carving and slowly stepped back, as if standing on a conveyor belt, growing smaller and smaller, and finally disappearing into the haze.
Just then, darkness suddenly appeared at the edge of sight, flooding the beach like a tide, completely submerging Jace.

"How's this guy?" Gong Bing pushed open the door and walked in.
The forty or fifty-square-meter room was divided into two parts, separated by a wooden screen.
Several beds sit side by side in front of the opposite wall, several large wooden cabinets with many small lattices are on the other side of the screen, and several wooden tables and chairs leaning against the corners or in front of the bed.
"Now that he's breathing evenly and looking calm, I guess he'll wake up soon." Luo Xiaodie sat on the edge of the bed, holding a towel in her hand.
Hearing the movement behind her, she turned back to Gong Bing and said.
Gong Bing came to the end of the bed and propped his hands on the bed board.
Jace was lying on the bed, his eyes closed and motionless.
"But he just slept restlessly, probably having a nightmare." Luo Xiaodie said.
Gong Bing pursed his lips, he was a, if it weren't for his own hands, and he also got it in his own competition in the name of the martial arts hall, he really wouldn't have come over to check the situation.
"He seems to have dreamed about what happened when he was a child, and he said things like "Brother, Ruhl, why don't you ignore me?" Luo Xiaodie smiled softly and said, "I didn't expect such a fierce person to be so fierce when I was in the competition just now, but I was unexpectedly cute when I fell asleep." ”
Lovely?
Ouch!
Hearing this, Gong Bing's goosebumps rose again.
Good, good, has the world changed? How can a be cute?
Luo Xiaodie, you don't know his true face, otherwise you wouldn't have said that.
But......
It's a no-brainer for me, but not necessarily for her.
After all, have always been good material for good girlfriends......
Luo Xiaodie didn't know what Gong Bing was thinking, and she continued.
"And it sounds like he's been doing well with Ruhl since they were kids, and it seems like they're still in the same school."
"It's all from the same family, what's so strange about going to the same school?" Gong Bing said disappreciably: "As for the good feelings...... Didn't you see the picture of how this guy reprimanded Ruhl on the sidelines? ”
Fluttershy shook her head.
"Reprimand doesn't mean that the relationship is bad, but it is precisely because of good feelings that they will pay extra attention to each other, and they will say so many things, right?"
"You understand that, but that's pretty comfortable."
"Senior brother, do you have any brothers and sisters?"
"Yes, a sister two years older."
"Then does she always like to nag you and ask you how to do it?"
"It used to be like this." Gong Bing thought for a moment and replied.
In the past, Gabriel was a taciturn, introverted and timid person, and it was really hard for people to resist saying a word, let alone someone with a personality like Rita.
However, Gong Bing and Gabriel's personalities are very different, and they are not people who need to be taken care of, so Rita naturally has fewer opportunities to preach.
"And do you think she loves you?"
"Huh?" Gong Bing was stunned, then saw Luo Xiaodie turn her head. Smiling at him.
What a piercing smile.
……
"Love, ahem..."
Luo Xiaodie nodded, not caring about Gong Bing's embarrassment, and said to herself.
"I am the youngest child of the Luo family, although I have brothers and sisters, but there is a bit of a distance between ages, and sometimes when I get along, I always feel like something is missing."
"Isn't Master Xiaohu treating you badly? Master Xiaohu is such a gentle person, he seems to be very good at taking care of people. ”
"Brother Xiaohu is very good to me, and I like him very much, but it's just ......"
"Well, maybe you're missing a sister." Gong Bing replied casually.
"Sister... Actually, the eldest sister, she ......" Luo Xiaodie's voice slowly became smaller.
"What? Eldest sister? You also have a sister at home? I still have a big sister? Although his voice became quieter, he still heard it, and the surprise did not diminish at all: "I've been in the martial arts hall for so long, why haven't I heard of it before?" ”
This time, Luo Xiaodie's lips tightened, and no matter how much Gong Bing asked, she didn't reveal another word.
It seems that there is still a big story in this, but seeing that she is depressed and depressed, Gong Bing did not continue to ask.
So he changed the subject.
"By the way, did this guy lying on the bed say anything else?"
"Well, he did say a lot of things, and in the dream just now, he repeatedly mentioned a wood carving, a woman's wood carving, and it seems that that thing left a deep impression on him."
"Women... Woodcarving? Gong Bing narrowed his eyes: "What kind of female wood carving is it?" ”
"All I know is that it's a female wood carving, as if looking into the distance."
"How long is the hair? What about tall, short, fat and thin? And what is it like to dress up? ”
"Stop, stop, where do I know so much detail, if he didn't often mention this wood carving in his dreams, I wouldn't have an impression of this, you must know that most people's dream words are vague."
Luo Xiaodie looked at him suspiciously, "Why do you care so much about this wood carving?" Is it something valuable? ”
"It's not valuable, it's just that I've met a similar one before."
"Is it something very important?"
Gong Bing shook his head, then pointed at Jace.
"Then we'll have to wait until this guy wakes up and ask."
