Endless loneliness, buried in darkness.

When I returned to the platform, I found that Li Ruina was looking at me with disdain, "How can you say that you are a boy, why are you so timid?" You see that frightened scream just now, like a crazy rabbit. ”

"It was terrifying just now...... I said, I looked at the bottom of the platform again, and my whole body was in a cold sweat.

The staff of the park unbuckled the seat belt and said with a smile: "Thank you for playing, the exit is on your right, and you can go down the stairs to get there." ”

"Cheng Yin, let's go, do you want to play again?"

"No, no, no...... No, let's go. "I hurriedly urged Li Ruina to get out of here quickly, I didn't want to stay here for a second.

So Li Ruina and I walked down the spiral staircase again. I looked at Li Ruina's figure, and I didn't expect that she looked no different from an ordinary girl on the outside, but she was so strong on the inside.

Li Ruina turned to look at me, "Why don't you leave?" Could it be that I was so scared that I couldn't walk anymore? Do you want me to carry you down? Li Ruina said with a smile.

"No need, no need, I'll go down by myself."

And just like that, I was finally back on the ground, feeling like I was born again.

"By the way, Cheng Yin, I didn't ask any of them, what's the matter with these long ears on your head? I didn't expect you to have a childlike heart. Li Ruina patted my rabbit ears with her hand and said with a smile, "But I also said that these ears are really compatible with you, or I will call you a rabbit in the future, right?" No, become a bunny! Li Ruina said and laughed exaggeratedly.

I immediately took the rabbit ears off my head and said angrily, "What's so funny? Isn't it Cui Li yet! "I even threw this fluffy rabbit ear in the trash, but when I did, I hesitated and took it in my hand.

However, when I turned to look for Li Ruina, she suddenly disappeared in front of me.

"What about people? Why is it gone in the blink of an eye? Say I'm a rabbit, I run faster than a rabbit, you're a rabbit, Li Rabbit! ”

I'm still indignant about what I just happened, but I'm still looking for Li Ruina everywhere.

"What about people? Where did it go? I said to myself, but my eyes kept searching the park.

Suddenly, I found Li Ruina in a princess clothing store. She already had a lot of dresses in her hands, but she was still hesitating.

I walked into the princess clothing store, came to her, and said angrily, "Li Ruina, why are you like this? Come as you say, leave as you say, and don't say a word to me. ”

Seeing my angry appearance, Li Ruina suddenly laughed, "What's wrong?" into rabbits. I don't think I'm that familiar with you, right? Where am I going to report back to you? Oh, by the way, I forgot, you just seemed to say in front of Leng Ruyue that I was your girlfriend, so you're in such a hurry now, right? Li Ruina said deliberately.

"What, what girlfriend? I just asked you to pretend, and I'm not in a hurry at all. I pretended to be very calm and said.

"Okay, okay, no kidding with you, look at how serious you look. Come, you can help me choose which skirt is better, I have been choosing for a long time. ”

I looked at the skirts that Li Ruina was holding, and they were basically princess series long dresses.

"I can't see that a strong person like you still has a girl's heart."

"I want you to take care of it!!" Li Ruina stepped on me hard as she spoke, and then went to try on clothes alone.

When she appeared in front of me again, it was like a different person, really like a princess, with long hair and a shawl, coupled with her tall figure, with a long skirt, it was really beautiful.

Li Ruina slowly walked up to me and said, "How is it?" Is it good-looking? ”

I nodded again and again: "It's good-looking, it's really good-looking." ”

Li Ruina herself was also very satisfied with this princess dress and bought this princess dress.

In the afternoon, the sky was clear, and the performance of the prince and princess came to an end with a round of applause. They slowly walked down the stage after a bow, and boarded the pumpkin carriage behind the crowd along the trail surrounded by the crowd.

The colorful lights on the carriage were so dazzling, and the euphemistic music sounded in our ears like a babbling stream, and we glanced at each other, driven by the atmosphere at this time, and involuntarily walked with the pumpkin carriage. The prince and princess inside the pumpkin carriage also kept waving to the pedestrians on both sides.

“o，it's so beautiful!” Li Ruina shouted happily, spun in a circle, and almost fell into my arms. "Cheng Yin, you know, it's been a long time since I've been so happy like now, I don't have to strain my nerves to get those annoying studies!"

"Yes, yes." I shook my head helplessly.

She touched the gorgeous princess dress on her body and slowly began to narrate: "In the past, when I had my birthday, my mother would give me a princess dress like this, and she knew that my favorite was such a princess dress. But ......"

"But? But what ......? ”

Li Ruina did not answer. Still, you could see the sadness on her face.

But since she didn't want to say it, then I won't ask any more questions.

The pumpkin carriage faded away in front of us.

It was at this moment that I suddenly felt a six- or seven-year-old child next to us, who was holding a blue marker and laughing with his face covered.

I was wondering why he was so happy, when I suddenly saw a rabbit on the princess dress that Li Ruina had just bought, which was obviously the 'masterpiece' of the child with the blue marker.

"Li Ruina, your skirt !!" I shouted.

"Ah!! How so? Who the hell is it? Li Ruina instantly returned to that fierce image.

Ran out and gestured with his eyes to the child who was still laughing with a blue marker.

"!! you still laughing" Li Ruina said angrily and walked towards him.

The little boy looked left and right, pulled his legs and ran.

Seeing all this, Li Ruina frowned, and chased directly in the direction of the little boy, and I was close behind them.

"Don't run, stop!" Li Ruina chased the little boy all the way and kept shouting at him, but the little boy turned around and made a grimace at her, and then jumped nimbly onto the stone in the lake in the park, but it was obvious that the stone was not very stable, and it swayed from side to side. At this time, the laughing boy was visibly frightened. Seeing this situation, Li Ruina put away the angry expression just now, and suddenly said very friendly: "This lake is dangerous. Come, my sister won't chase you anymore, you give me your hand. Li Ruina glanced at the lake at the boy's feet and persuaded him.

The little boy also took a look at the lake at his feet, with a frightened expression on his face, and stammered, "That...... Then you have to promise me, you can't...... Can't hit me. ”

"Okay, how could I hit you, trust me."

Li Ruina followed the little boy's words, reached over and stepped on a stone on the lake.

"Okay then."

The boy's hand also stretched out, and when Li Ruina was about to grab his hand, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You are fooled, I won't believe you adults!" ”

Seeing that with a flick of his hand, Li Ruina's body quickly lost its balance, and she was about to fall into the lake.

"Li Ruina!"

At this moment, I suddenly jumped and pulled Li Ruina back to the shore.

"You two fools, it's your luck this time. Hahahaha~" The little boy who had jumped on the shore a long time ago turned around and laughed at us vigorously.

When I raised my fist and made a gesture to punch him, he immediately turned his head around and ran away.

"Damn, don't let me touch this little guy next time, or I'll have to discipline his parents well!" I swear.

"Will you touch him next time?"

"I ......"

Li Ruina's words made me speechless for a while.

"Forget it, let's leave him alone." Li Ruina said.

At this time, Cui Li, Mo Weiwei and Leng Ruyue happened to see us.

"Cheng Yin, what's wrong with you?" Cui Li asked.

"Don't talk about it, it's all that kid." I said angrily.

"Little children? What little children? Mo Weiwei asked curiously.

"Forget it, it's nothing ......"

I looked around, and there was no sign of the child anymore.

"Li Ruina, why are you here? The girlfriend of Cheng Yin that Leng Ruyue and we talked about just now is you, this..."Cui Li has not finished speaking.

I patted Cui Li's shoulder hard and said, "What? Can't you? ”

Cui Li suddenly understood, and nodded again and again: "No, it's just a coincidence that I met Li Ruina here, your girlfriend." ”

"Yes, Cheng Yin didn't tell me that you would come here, otherwise we would have come together." Li Ruina said.

"By the way, Cheng Yin, didn't you just ask you to wait, I'll help you buy ice cream? I can't find you in the blink of an eye. Cui Li asked.

"Isn't this going to play aerial dreams with Li Ruina?" As soon as I thought about my aerial dream, I began to break out in a cold sweat.

"What!! You mean Aerial Dreams? Cui Li looked at me in amazement.

From his tone, I could sense that Cui Li had understood my feelings.

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm Mo Weiwei from the Faculty of Arts at HKUST." Mo Weiwei said politely.

"I'm Ruina Li, an engineer at the AEF Research Center, hello." At this time, Li Ruina was also very polite, and she did not have the same fierce image as before.

"Since we all know each other, why don't we just have some, and it's more lively when there are more people, isn't it?" Mo Weiwei proposed.

"Yes, yes." I hurriedly agreed.

In this case, Li Ruina would not have let me play those terrifying rides earlier.

"Cheng Yin, how are you? Aerial dreams are alright? Cui Li whispered in my ear.

"It's hard to put it into words......" I sighed.

"Don't say it, I know, let's put on a bunny ear to suppress the shock." Cui Li said and put his long rabbit ears on my head.

I looked at Cui Li with anger in my eyes.

Just as we had barely walked a few steps, a huge float appeared next to us. On top of the float is a cute lion cub, dancing to the cheerful music.

"You see, it's so cute." Mo Weiwei exclaimed.

"yes, this lion cub is really cute, too." I didn't expect Li Ruina to express the same emotion, in my heart she has a strong side.

Suddenly, the pumpkin carriage appeared in front of us again, and the prince and princess slowly stepped out of the carriage and greeted the crowd.

Soon, the music was playing. The beautiful melody sounded in my ears, and the staff of the park began to dance merrily.

20:45 on the day of the month and month of 2021

"Hello visitors, there are still fifteen minutes before the park closes, please pay attention to ......"

As we hurried to the entrance of the park, we listened to the repeated broadcasts and saw the security guard holding a little boy by the collar and questioning him sternly.

The voice...... Why is it so familiar?

Out of curiosity, I moved closer. I don't know if I don't see this, but I'm really shocked when I see it. Sure enough, the road is narrow, and we will meet again after a while.

I clearly heard the voice of the security guard:

"Why are you like this, kid? Scribbling on someone's clothes with a marker? What about your parents? ”

The little boy glanced up at the security guard, and immediately turned his head away and muttered, "If you want to catch that nonsense......

"Good boy, there is you" I saw that the security guard took out his mobile phone angrily and dialed the phone.

However, at this moment, I saw a familiar figure running into my sight.

I just wanted to take a closer look at the man's face, but Li Ruina patted me on the shoulder: "Cheng Yin, that kid has his own security guard to clean up, let's not be nosy, let's go quickly." ”

"Oh, good."

The moment I turned my head, I deliberately glanced at the boy again, his eyes were unusually lonely, he lowered his head, and buried himself in the darkness.

November 20, 2021 at 21:20

Li Ruina and I walked on the road outside the park, and from time to time we looked at the bright stars above us - they were crystal clear and beautiful. In the previous worlds, I probably didn't dare to imagine that I could walk under the starlight so leisurely......

The night breeze gently brushed my hair, and before I knew it, I smiled comfortably.

Dibana suddenly turned around, pointed to a small red car on the opposite side and said to me, "My car is on the opposite side, do you want me to give you a ride?" ”

I shook my head slightly: "No, it's close to the station, I'll walk there." ”

Debana shrugged, "Okay, then I'll go back first." ”

She waved at me, and I waved at her, and walked on the way to the station.
