Chapter 173: Jumping Sunshine (3)
Early in the morning, a ray of sunlight peeks through the glass window, and Star Swirl opens her eyes slightly to welcome the first rays of sunlight.
A big shiny hand put the velvet blanket that was about to slip on the ground back on the bed, tested the temperature in the quilt again, and after making sure it was still warm, asked, "Awake?" ”
"Uh-huh......" Star Swirl replied in confusion, twitching her nose twice, the scent in the air that made her sleepy retreat slightly, "This smell is ......"
"Does it sound familiar?" A deep voice echoed in my ears.
That's right, this aroma is the incense she once smelled in Mr. X's apartment, a faint floral aroma, fresh and natural.
She now misses the time when Mr. X used to be the manager of the coffee shop.
"Where did you get this?" Star Swirl asks curiously.
"Mr. Deer brought it from Time and Space," said the big hand, rubbing it over Star Swirl's plush head, "in a few days, we should change places." ”
"Where are you going?" Star Swirl immediately tensed.
Mr. X chuckled, "Haven't you been in this little place enough?" If there was a bigger room, wouldn't you want to go? ”
"It turned out to be just moving." Star Swirl breathed a sigh of relief, even though the apartment was a kitchen and bathroom except for one bedroom, she hadn't felt cramped at all after a month.
"yes," Mr. X nodded, "and you probably won't feel lonely when you move." ”
"What's the situation?" Star Swirl's eyebrows skip a beat, predicting that the world of the two is about to be broken.
"You'll find out then." He still sells Guan Zi as always.
Star Swirl snorted and asked, "By the way, where did you go last night?" ”
"Something was taken care of." Mr. X replied vaguely.
"What's the matter?" Star Swirl asks.
"It's just a small thing, you don't have to worry about it." There was nothing unusual on his cold and hard face, but the frequency of his fingers tapping on the table revealed his displeasure.
Since when did she want to fully grasp his whereabouts and movements, and fully understand his thoughts? It's not been a day or two since Star Swirl had such a thought.
Seeing that he was displeased, Star Swirl changed the subject, "The situation in the boy's house that came to the doctor yesterday doesn't seem to be what he said it is. ”
"Oh?" Mr. X pushed open the window and said, "Come and see." ”
Star Swirl climbed onto the windowsill and bumped into the soft wind, and her eyes looked down to see the boy standing downstairs, looking hesitant.
"It's not been two days, why is he here again?" Star Swirl wondered.
"I guess there's something on my mind," Mr. X said, putting on his coat, "and go down and see." ”
The city has just woken up, and all the sounds and colors are parked in the clear morning light, natural and harmonious. Star Swirl leans on Mr. X's shoulder, feeling the warmth of spring.
"Come to me?" Mr. X asked.
The boy was taken aback by his sudden appearance, and hurriedly explained, "No, I didn't come to look for you, I happened to pass by. ”
Mr. X looked at the road behind him and asked, "It's almost time for class, and you're not going to school yet?" ”
The boy immediately turned around and ran forward, ran a few steps and then turned back and asked, "Tomorrow, can I come to you?" ”
Mr. X nodded slightly, and the boy left reassuringly.
"This kid is a little weird." Star Swirl muttered.
"What did you find?" Mr. X asked.
"He took the medicine you prescribed to his mother yesterday and took it himself. And according to my observation, his mother was not as emotional as he said, but just a little anxious like an ordinary senior high school parent, thinking that I would ...... before the college entrance examination."
Star Swirl paused, her heart throbbing at the thought that all of her past was fictional.
"Would you like to go for something?" Mr. X interrupted her thoughts and asked, pointing to the breakfast stall at the end of the alley.
"Huh?" Star Swirl looked at the fried dough and soy milk on the stall, as if she had smelled the aroma in the air, and was tickled by the cravings in her stomach.
It's just that this stall full of fireworks doesn't match Mr. X's temperament, and Star Swirl doesn't react for a moment, just looks at him in a daze.
The man had already strode towards the stall and asked with a smile, "Tell me, what do you want to eat?" ”
For Star Swirl, Mr. X's impression in her mind was cold at first, then heartless, then unpredictable.
However, there seems to have been a slight change in him recently, and he has gradually become more human.
----------------------
A day later, in the evening, Wen Yao appeared in the psychiatric clinic with urgent hope in his eyes, as if Mr. X was his life-saving medicine.
"Why are you still alone?" Mr. X asked, raising a good-looking eyebrow.
"I ......" the boy lowered his head, wringed his fingers, and whispered, "I can't tell her to come, but the medicine works!" ”
The moment the boy looked up, his eyes were full of joy, "Can you open it for me a little more?" ”
Mr. X shook his head: "This prescription drug was prescribed to you before, and it was already illegal. ”
"Please, save me," begged the boy, "I feel like I'm living in misery every day! ”
"So, can you admit that you are seeing a doctor for yourself and not for someone else?" Mr. X asked.
The boy was stunned, as if he didn't expect him to ask such a question, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice, unable to speak.
"If you can tell me the truth about your symptoms, maybe I can consider prescribing medicine to you." Mr. X deliberately pronounced the word "prescribing medicine" very seriously.
The look of joy on the boy's face vanished in an instant, and after a moment of silence, his expression became gloomy.
"She is the one who is sick! I'm normal! The boy let out an angry growl, and he could see that the person who was deeply resistant to it was actually himself.
"Do you often feel anxious, have no interest in anything, often have insomnia at night, and feel unusually depressed?" Mr. X asked.
"I didn't." The boy replied word for word, got up from his chair, turned and walked out.
"Don't you have to prescribe medicine?" Behind him, Mr. X heard a sneering voice.
The boy walked down the stairs with a smile, and his whole heart gradually sank, "I...... Why live? "He seems to have completely lost interest in life.
At this moment, Star Swirl has attached herself to Wen Yao, and she understands his dazed and painful emotions, but Star Swirl is a little incomprehensible about him being so negative, is it just because of the pressure of studying?
Star Swirl decides to read Moon's memories and look for clues.
