I followed the sound and looked over, and saw the young man lying by the window, his eyebrows and eyes smiling, his skin becoming fairer and fairer in the sunlight, delicate as a fairy child in mythology.

Noticing my gaze, the young man was slightly stunned, and immediately restrained the smile on his face, sank his face, and made a gesture to close the window.

"Wait!" I shouted, and the boy's window was halfway closed and stopped.

"Your name is Ah Yan, right?"

“……”

"You let that cat out, why don't you play with them?"

"......" The young man pursed his lips, and stopped talking, seeing that the group of children was coming, there was more longing in his eyes.

I grabbed the white cat, called them all over, and beckoned to the boy, "Come out and play with them." ”

The boy pursed his lips, a little hesitant.

"No, he's a monster, so I don't play with monsters......"

"My mother said that he was a seed brought back from outside the village, and he specialized in harming people......"

"His face is so white, he looks like a youkai, only a youkai can be so beautiful......"

They scrambled to speak, and a trace of injury crossed the boy's eyes, and he quickly regained his composure, as if he had become accustomed to it.

"Kill him, don't let the monster come out and hurt people......," they shouted, picking up a stone and throwing it at the boy, who didn't dodge or dodge, and was wounded on his forehead, blood running down his eyelids.

The children were a little frightened when they saw the blood.

The boy didn't say a word, wiped a handful of blood, and looked at the children coldly.

"Run, youkai are going to eat people......" they shouted, and they all ran away.

The young man looked at me, his eyes were unusually calm, I opened my mouth, and just wanted to comfort him, I saw a woman come to the window, the face was very similar to the young man's, the young man's eyes were red, like a wronged child, and he whispered, "Mom." ”

Before the words fell, the woman raised her hand and slapped him with a snap, "Who is your mother, you monster, stay in the world and harm people, I will kill you......"

The woman shouted viciously, picked up a feather duster in her hand, and struck at the boy, and the figures of the two disappeared from the window, and the sound of things breaking from the room kept coming......

The white cat jumped off the body and scratched the door with its paws, and I pushed it open with all my might, running towards the room where the boy was.

When I went up to the attic, the movement inside stopped, the door was open, and the woman was gone, leaving only the fragments of porcelain vases all over the floor.

The room was quiet, I faintly heard the sound of sobbing coming from the cabinet, I came to the cabinet, slowly opened the cabinet door, the young man was barefoot, the whole person curled up in a ball, and there was a clear five finger prints on his face.

"You...... Are you okay? I asked softly, only to feel my heart hurt.

The boy didn't speak, his eyes were red, and he turned his head, not wanting me to see him embarrassed.

"Your mother is gone, come out quickly." I comforted him softly and reached for his hand.

At this time, footsteps sounded outside, and the young man's eyes trembled, and he took my hand, dragged me in, and quickly closed the door.

Through the crack in the cabinet door, I saw that the woman was still holding the feather duster in her hand, looking for the shadow of the young man everywhere.

The young man covered my eyes with his hands, pressed my head on his shoulder, and whispered in my ear, "Don't look, just wait a while." ”
