Xiao Zhi ran out of the hotel room as if he was running away. He glanced at the food truck in front of the waiter, and wondered who was secretly following him?

At midnight, the lobby of the hotel was quiet and there were hardly any customers. In addition to the waiters at the front desk and the security guards guarding the door, the empty hall can be heard of pins dropping.

Koji walked up to the front desk and asked who had just ordered food for their room. The waitress was a very young lady, she checked Xiaozhi's room number, looked down and thought for a while, and said slowly: "About forty minutes ago, an elegant woman came to the front desk, said your room number, and ordered a very rich supper. She said, "She's with you." ”

Xiao Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does this lady look like?" When she left the hotel, did she take a taxi or drive herself? ”

The waiter's eyes drifted to the door of the hotel, and he said while thinking: "That lady, although she wears a pair of wide sunglasses, you can still see that she is beautiful." As for the other details, I don't remember much, so I beg your pardon. After all, there are so many customers who come to the hotel. ”

Xiaozhi said thank you, nodded, and walked out of the hotel quickly. Will it be summer snow? Thinking of this, Koji threw an empty punch in the air in annoyance and sighed deeply. He stood on the side of the street, and there happened to be a rental car in front of the hotel, so he got into the car directly and told the location of Xia Xue's house.

Koji pressed the window and lit a cigarette. The night breeze outside was blowing in, the coolness was mixed with slippery, and the humidity in the air seemed to be high.

At this time, Xiaozhi seemed to be sobering up most of the time, and he was glad that he hadn't done anything out of the ordinary in the hotel just now. That blind date girl, Xiaozhi seems to be familiar, but I can't tell where I saw it?

When Xiaoji was a student, he fell in love a few times and had that kind of relationship with each other. But this blind date girl made him dare not act rashly against her, and he couldn't say why?

Xiaozhi got out of the car at the intersection in front of Xia Xue's house. He walked slowly and leisurely into the inner depths of the path, clouds of smoke swirling in the dim night. He walked to the door of Xia Xue's house, but did not go in directly.

He saw that Xia Xue's home was pitch black, and there was not even a trace of light. Oddly enough, there are no stall curtains in the bedroom on the second floor. Xia Xue has already slept? Or wandering around outside and not coming home?

Koji turned around, took two steps back, leaned heavily against the wall, and smoked cigarette after cigarette. He looked blankly at the night sky, the moon was very round tonight, and the bright moonlight shone on the ground, shining like mercury scattered all over the ground.

This holy glow is like the luster of Xia Xue's skin. Xiao Zhi thought about it and didn't want to go in. Although he has always been concerned about Xia Xue in his heart, he doesn't want to indulge Xia Xue's arrogance.

Xiaoji threw the burned cigarette butt on the ground, raised his foot and crushed it a few times, and strode away. Let's go back to our home first, and let Xia Xue sober up first. If she is easily forgiven this time, then she will be even more unscrupulous in the future, right?

He is no longer a child, and he can't let Xia Xue breathe and drink anymore. He wants to firm up his position and show the majesty of a man, so that Xia Xue completely realizes that Xiaozhi is already an adult.

The next morning, after finishing the company's affairs in the office, Xiaoji received a strange phone call. After connecting, I felt that the voice was very familiar, and I couldn't guess who the other party was for a while?

"Hello, who are you, do you have something to do with me?" Koji asked politely.

"I'm really sorry about 、、、、、、 at the hotel last night. I probably acted too crazy because I liked you so much, hoping it didn't scare you. "God, it turned out to be the girl who went on a blind date with Xiaozhi.

Xiaozhi thought to himself, how could she have my phone? It must have been her mother, Park Shiyi, who told her. Xiaozhi politely said a few words in disgust, and was about to hang up the phone.

"Xue Zhi, wait a minute, I have something important to say! If you don't listen, you'll definitely regret it. The girl shouted urgently on the other end of the phone.

Xiao Zhi frowned suspiciously, and said, "Oh, what important words will you have to say to me?" We met in the water, and we didn't even know each other. ”

"Xue Zhi, I'm 、、、、、、 Haruko. Don't you remember anything? After the girl finished speaking, her tone choked and she cried quietly.

"What? Are you Haruko? When I said the first time I saw you, I felt like I had seen you somewhere. However, I couldn't remember it at all. Your 、、、、、、 has changed quite a lot, and it's really hard to think of the old you. In the past, you were introverted, didn't like to talk, and was always alone. How did it become so 、、、、、、 wild now? After Xiaozhi finished speaking, he hurriedly closed his mouth, feeling that his description of her seemed to contain derogatory and frivolous.

"People will always change slowly with their experiences and circumstances. At the beginning, we agreed not to see each other again, but I have never been able to forget you after so many years. So, after graduating from university, I went back to the city where I lived. Unexpectedly, the blind date arranged by my family for me turned out to be you! It's a coincidence, isn't it? Do you have time for the evening? Is it okay for us to meet and talk again? ”

"Well, okay. Still meet at the 1986 bar? After all these years, the police 、、、、、、 probably won't notice us anymore, right? ”

"Well, probably not. It's just that we're better to see each other as little as possible. In the past, we said that we would never see each other in this life, and it was safer to keep in touch by letter. ”

After Xiaozhi hung up the phone, he couldn't help but feel nervous. Didn't you say yes at the beginning and never see each other again? Why did you go out of your way to go back to the original city and chase after me? I hope that their meeting will not cause trouble for each other.

The past is unbearable, but it is like a lingering cloud, permeating Xiaozhi's heart for many years.

When Xiaozhi was in the sixth grade of elementary school, one morning, the teacher brought in a beautiful strange girl. She stood on the podium, lowered her eyes, and said nonorly: "My name is Haruko, please take care of me in the future!" ”

Koji was instantly attracted to this girl. Her temperament is a little special, quieter and more polite than the girls around her. Every time she finished speaking, she would bow deeply to the other person to show respect. Such a cumbersome etiquette makes everyone think she is very different. She has a short "doll head", her eyes are big, like a bottomless pool, and her skin is snow-white, like a doll.

After a long time, Koji found that Haruko would be the last to walk out of the classroom every afternoon after school. When she walked slowly to the school gate, she looked at the street in front of her with a little dejected. Could it be that she doesn't like her home? Or, on her way out of school, there are annoying male classmates pestering her?

Koji mustered up enough courage and ran to Haruko's side and said, "Hello, if you want, I can accompany you home." My house is not too far from your home, it should be a drop-by, and when I took the car home, I saw you walking on the road by yourself several times. ”

Haruko looked up in surprise, staring at Koji with a pair of big watery eyes, and looked at Koji seriously. After a while, she blushed and said, "I heard from my cousin that your family is very rich, so a driver comes to pick you up from school every day." But I like to walk, can you stand to walk home? ”

Seeing that Haruko didn't refuse, Koji smiled happily, patted his chest and said, "Take a little walk, what's it?" I'll walk home with you every day from now on! ”

Haruko's indifferent face showed a rare innocent smile, and she nodded at Koji.

From then on, Xiaozhi told the driver in charge of picking him up that he had to walk home and that he didn't have to pick him up in the future. The family felt that there was nothing for the boy to walk, so there was no objection.

Haruko and Koji gradually became acquainted with each other, and took the initiative to tell Koji that she used to live in Japan with her mother. I heard her mother say that her father was a Chinese, they met at a cultural exchange meeting, it was love at first sight, and then they got married in a flash.

After marriage, Haruko's mother lived in Osaka, Japan, and her father lived in China. To Haruko's surprise, she had never met her father, and her mother said that Haruko's father had a special job and couldn't leave casually. Every year during Haruko's summer vacation, her mother would come to China alone, saying that she was going to see Haruko's father.

A few months ago, Haruko's father died in an accident, and her mother took her from Japan to China. Her mother loved her father very much and was also obsessed with the culture of the country, so she brought Haruko to settle in China. Haruko has been learning Chinese since she was a child, so she has no problem reading and writing Chinese, but she pays too much attention to etiquette in her gestures.

When Haruko appeared in front of Xiaozhi's eyes, it happened to be the most lost time in Xiaozhi's heart, that year, his father Xue Han was inexplicably arrested by the police and never returned home. He heard from his family that his father had been sentenced and might never return home. Although Xiaozhi doesn't have any deep feelings for his parents, after all, he is connected by flesh and blood, so his heart is always full of pain.

Every time Koji walks home with Haruko, he meets an American man on the way. It was a lonely road, and on the side of the road was a ruin-like idle house, which I heard was left behind after the units of the Third Railway Bureau moved away.

In that ruin, few human figures can be seen, only strange stray cats enter and exit.

Haruko, call that American man uncle. She said that her mother taught Japanese at a foreign teaching institution, and that the American man, who was a colleague of her mother, now lives with her mother and takes care of their mother and daughter's life.

Koji was very relieved for Haruko at that time, having such a good uncle who cared about her and would wait for her on the road every day after school. The American man, every time he saw Haruko on the road, he would greet him with a smile and take Haruko's little hand.

When Koji waved goodbye to Haruko, he found that Haruko's eyes were full of reluctance. Every time Koji turns around and continues to turn to another intersection, he will seriously guess Haruko's eyes in his heart. Could it be that he was reluctant to part with her, so he would speculate on her thoughts like this?

One afternoon on the way out of school, when Koji and Haruko walked to the ruins again, after saying goodbye to each other. After walking a long way alone, Koji remembered Haruko's math class notes in his school bag.

In that class, Xiaozhi fell asleep in a daze, and I don't know why he was so sleepy? So after class, I borrowed Haruko's class notes to copy it.

Xiao Zhi hurriedly turned around and ran back quickly. If he runs fast enough, he should be able to catch up with Haruko and her American uncle.

But when Koji ran back to the ruins, he didn't even find Haruko. Haruko's way home was long, the slender path next to the ruins. Even if she ran home, she couldn't be so fast that she couldn't even see a figure.

At this time, Koji vaguely heard that someone seemed to be talking in the ruins. He was shocked, how could there be someone here?

Xiao Zhi tiptoed into the abandoned house, step by step to the innermost room, walking. Suddenly, he saw a terrible scene、、、、、、
