The little girl forgot all memories of the past, including her own name.

But it's okay if she doesn't remember her name, if Hao Yunlai knows and blurts it out in a hurry, the little girl will be caught by black and white impermanence, she doesn't want to go back to the underworld to live that boring and boring life. After getting acquainted with the little girl, Hao Yunlai didn't want the little girl to leave, because she could be said to be Hao Yunlai's first real friend.

Because the little girl was always dangling in the air, Hao Yunlai named her "Ah Piao".

Before Ah Piao met Hao Yunlai, she had been wandering around the world for more than ten years, and she was well-informed, so a lot of the content in Hao Yunlai's notebook came from her.

"You're a virgin." Ah Piao rolled her eyes, and her eyeballs almost didn't come back.

"Say whatever you want." Hao Yunlai lay down beside Ah Piao.

After a moment of silence, Ah Piao's anger gradually calmed down, "So, can that child see ghosts?" ”

"What he saw was an apparition."

Generally speaking, the tricks of ghosts cannot be seen with the naked eye of ordinary people, but apparitions are one of the few exceptions, they are parasitic on a certain object and are obsessed with creating illusions for a particular owner. When Hao Yunlai saw Hao Linlin, the phantom around him was tailor-made for him by Li Xiaoyan, so Hao Yunlai, who had read countless ghosts, would not be able to see the "strange aunt" in Lin Lin's mouth at that time. In hindsight, the so-called strange aunt was completely the epitome of the ghost that Hao Linlin understood, so the moment he saw that the female ghost in white was his sister, the phantom that Li Xiaoyan could weave grew into Hao Yunlai from then on.

Ah Piao pursed his lips, "It's really boring." ”

At this time, Hao Yunlai seemed to think of something, suddenly sat up from the bed, and faced Ah Piao, "But when I took Lin Lin to see a doctor, I met a doctor." ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"The point is, the doctor told me that he had seen things that modern science couldn't explain, and that he believed it was a world infested with ghosts."

A Piao's eyes flashed with a glint that didn't match her young appearance, "That's interesting." ”

"Wow-" Hao Linlin's sudden cry pierced through the wall.

Hao Yunlai cast his eyes to the door, and after a while, he saw Hao Linlin crying and appearing there with pear blossoms and rain.

"What's wrong?" Hao Yunlai asked with a stunned expression.

"Uncle...... Brother ......" Hao Linlin cried fiercely, and he couldn't spit out a complete sentence for a while.

Seeing this, Hao Yunlai rushed out with an arrow step.

When Hao Yunlai entered the room, Qi Zhan was lying comfortably on the bed, nibbling on the dried mutton, while holding the tablet left by Hao Linlin just now and swiping Weibo.

"Why are you stealing children's things?" Hao Yunlai snatched the tablet in Qi Zhan's hand, "It's really disrespectful!" ”

"Hey, big sister, which eye did you see me snatching his things, he threw this thing himself." Qi Zhan hugged his head and squinted at Hao Yunlai.

"Then why is he crying so decently?" The corners of Hao Yunlai's eyes and eyebrows were full of distrust at the moment.

"How do I know? I shared my jerky with him in order to take care of this child for you, and who knew that the little white-eyed wolf would cry when he finished eating. ”

"Uncle Qi said that this is made of the meat of the Pleasant Goat." Hao Linlin stopped crying, and walked behind Hao Yunlai with a sob.

"Am I not right? This is lamb! Qi Zhan waved the snack in his hand disappreciatively.

"Let's go! Linlin, let's ignore him. Hao Yunlai rolled his eyes speechlessly, pulled Hao Linlin and turned around and left.

"Don't let these kids come to me again." Qi Zhan's voice was as unbeaten as ever.

By the time Hao Yunlai returned to the room, Ah Piao had already left.

***

The day I went to visit the old lady, the next day, the weather was fine. The bright sunlight shone through the window out of nowhere, shining straight on Hao Yunlai's thighs in denim trousers, leaving a scorching heat. A popular sad song was playing in the car, Hao Yunlai sat in the passenger seat, looked at the evergreen trees that were retreating rapidly, and hummed softly.

"I can follow you like a shadow......"

Before he could hum a few words, Hao Yunlai's body suddenly leaned forward.

"It's not that I said you, don't sing if you can't sing, it's okay now, the car doesn't like to listen to it, it's broken!"

Hao Yunlai pursed her lips, in fact, she felt that the sudden breakdown of the car was indeed related to herself, but it was definitely not because she sang badly, but because today was the second day on that special day.

In the years of living with Hao Yunlai, Qi Zhan had encountered countless things like this, and he turned on the double flash as usual. At noon in the scorching sun, there were not many vehicles coming and going on the road, Qi Zhan opened the door, took out the safety sign that had been prepared from the trunk and put it behind the car. When everything was ready, Qi Zhan walked around to the front of the car, lifted the lid of the engine, and buried himself in the tinkering.

Hao Yunlai leaned against the side of the car door and saw someone walking in the driveway.

"That's it!" Qi Zhan clapped his hands, got into the car door, and started the car again.

Hao Yunlai straightened up and skillfully carried back the safety sign placed behind the car. Open the trunk, put in the safety sign, close the trunk, open the door, sit in the car, close the door, and you're done.

"Let's go." Hao Yunlai pulled out his seat belt and fastened it.

"Knock knock." Someone is knocking on the window glass of the main driver's seat.

Hao Yunlai tilted his head slightly, and through the light green car film, a middle-aged man was looking in curiously.

Qi Zhan lowered the window on the left side and turned his head to look at the man outside the window.

The man was slightly chubby and wore a dark blue jacket with a zipper on his chest that had been pulled up to the top. The fisherman's hat on his head, the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and the large beard almost obscured his entire face.

"This little brother, can you take me to Nanzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine? I waited on this road for a long time and didn't wait for a taxi. ”

"Okay, we're just on our way."

With a "click", Qi Zhan opened the car lock.

The man limped open the car door and sat in.

"Big brother, what's wrong with your leg?" Qi Zhan looked at the man through the rearview mirror.

The man lowered his head and never raised his eyes, "I didn't want to take a long detour, so I climbed over the guardrail, and was wiped by the car." ”

"Tsk, you're hurting others and yourself." Qi Zhan stepped on the accelerator lightly.

The vehicle first drove forward with uniform acceleration and finally stabilized at a certain value.

After driving less than a kilometer, I hit the red light that had just jumped out of the intersection.

"It's over, it's all red light next."

Hao Yunlai looked at a Shaxian snack next to the sidewalk, "I came to this intersection the day before yesterday, and there were several car accidents that day. ”

"Nowadays, people are driving too horizontally, if they are all as cautious as me, where will there be accidents?" Qi Zhan turned the rearview mirror towards him, and used his right hand to pound the scalding bangs.

"Doot toot!" A hurried horn sounded from behind.

"Gone! Green light! Hao Yunlai rolled his eyes.

The red cross is attached to the high white wall, followed by six big characters of "Nanzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine".

Nanzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine arrived.

Qi Zhan pulled over and turned his head to look at the back seat, "Big brother, ...... you"

"What about people?" Qi Zhan unbuckled his seat belt and stretched his neck to look again.

"Don't look at it, the person is gone." Hao Yunlai on the right reminded loudly.

"What the hell is it in broad daylight, isn't it?" Qi Zhan turned around and looked at Hao Yunlai, who was also puzzled.

Hao Yunlai shrugged, "Don't look at me, I don't know, if it's a ghost, you shouldn't be able to see it." ”

"Forget it, it's important to get down to business." Qi Zhan was stunned to fasten his seat belt, start the car, and merge into the traffic on the road.

***

The old lady lives in an old neighborhood in the west of the city. After Qi Zhan and Hao Yunlai parked their cars, they followed the mobile phone map for a long time before they found the gate of the community. The vermilion paint on the window frames was peeling off in large chunks, the yellowed concrete walls were marked black by the rain, the clutter of electrical wires lay low in the air, and the narrow corridors between the buildings were littered with plastic bottles, cigarette butts, and crumpled paper towels.

The floor on the stairs was sticky because it was damp all year round, and Hao Yunlai climbed up to the sixth floor panting, fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, and Qi Zhan behind him was half a pound and eight taels.

"Is this it?" Hao Yunlai supported his waist.

Qi Zhan looked up at the door number, and the font of "602" on the rusty steel plate was clearly visible, "That's right, this is it." ”

Hao Yunlai glanced at the door a few times, and when he found that there was no doorbell, he raised his hand clenched into a fist and knocked on the door a few times.

"Who?" With a shrill female voice, a woman with thin curly hair opened the door and popped out half of her body.

"Auntie......" Hao Yunlai said with a smile.

The curly-haired woman frowned, and the corners of her lips, coated with death Barbie powder, twitched.

Qi Zhan realized that things were not simple, so he pushed Hao Yunlai away, leaned against the door with his feet bent, and showed the delicate right half of his side face in front of the woman.

"Hi, young lady."

Qi Zhan's majestic style of slapping horses has not diminished back then.

In the sweltering afternoon, Hao Yunlai's stomach suddenly gushed out with a sour feeling, which was disgusting.

The woman behind the door didn't think so, even though her sleek skin and bloated figure were all admonishing the visitor: I was forty years old, and maybe fifty. She looked at Qi Zhan, a beautiful man who was only one meter away from her, with satisfaction.

The black hair combed in four or six points skims to the sides, the smooth forehead is exposed to the air, the eyes under the thick eyebrows are not large, the inner folds are faintly visible, and the curve of the nose bridge and below is impeccable. Qi Zhan raised his eyes, and the lines squeezed out of his forehead revealed a bit of a romantic and elegant taste.

The woman swallowed.

"We're here to find Mrs. Zhou." Qi Zhan smiled kindly.

"Yo, that's it, please come in, please come in." The woman led Qi Zhan and Hao Yunlai into the door, and then shouted into the back room, "Auntie, someone has come to see you." ”

"Who?" The voice coming from inside the room was a little hoarse.

"Aunt Zhou, I'm Xiao Qi who made an appointment with you yesterday." Qi Zhan also learned from the woman to shout into the house.

"Xiao Qi." The old lady's voice rose a few degrees, sounding a little excited, "Come in the house!" ”

The curly-haired woman led Qi Zhan and Hao Yunlai into the house.

The old lady was lying sick on the bed with her head wrapped in gauze.

"Yesterday was fine, why is it like this today?" Qi Zhan stood beside the old lady's bed.

Hao Yunlai on the side took advantage of Qi Zhan's awkward chat and looked around the room.

The furnishings in the house are simple, except for a wardrobe and a bed, there is no other furniture. Oh, no, there are two small bedside tables, and on the bedside table is a picture frame, in which the man has a beard and red cheeks as if he had drunk wine, and looks the same as the man who took the hitchhike on the road.

Hao Yunlai sighed in his heart.

"Who is this?" Hao Yunlai pointed to the photo and blurted out.

The old lady followed Hao Yunlai's finger and said, rather sadly.

"That's my miserable son."
