So, what stands out from the crowd is the most eye-catching.

This house, with its predominantly black color, looks out of place in a neighborhood that seems to be very calm. The exterior walls of the two-story house were painted with black wall paint and decorated with some very strange decorations, and the gloomy atmosphere made the passers-by around them avoid it.

Because of the different styles, it is very conspicuous in this neighborhood. The yard of this house, like the other houses in the block, was full of debris. Unlike the other houses, there was a man sitting next to the pile.

Seeing this scene, Wen Zhong seemed to have a comprehension, seeing the man wearing an old leather jacket and looking dusty, this seemed to be a scavenger.

Most of these piles of debris are pieces of cement, and there are a lot of metal in them, and there are some things like chips in addition to steel bars. Judging from the short stubble on the middle-aged man's face and the sweat on his face, the weather should have been quite hot at that time.

The middle-aged man pulled out a piece of cement, put it on the ground, picked up a small stone hammer, poured some liquid on the cement block, and smashed it with a bump. After a while, the cement block was smashed to pieces, and the man took the metal chip-like object to his eyes and looked at it in detail, as if he had confirmed what it was, and placed it in the box on the left. There are two frames around him, the one on the left is stacked with metal chips, and the one on the right is a few bars of steel and iron.

Because he knew that these people existed in their memories and couldn't see themselves at all, Wen Zhong stood directly in front of the middle-aged man. The man was still tapping on the cement block, sorting the contents. But at this moment, two boys came from a distance, pushed open the door, and walked to the middle-aged man's side.

The two boys, who were about fourteen or fifteen years old, put their schoolbags on the lawn on one side, pulled out a toolbox from the other end of the clutter pile, sat down next to the middle-aged man, and helped knock up the cement blocks.

The middle-aged man frowned and said, "You don't need to help, let's go wash your hands first, and I'll cook in a while." ”

"Father, it's okay, we don't have anything else to do." It was the older boy on the left, who had short blond hair, but judging from the roots, his original hair color was still brown. The boy smiled, which made Wen Zhong feel vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

After the middle-aged man heard his son's words, he didn't argue much, and it was obvious that this was not the first time such a thing happened. He raised his wrist to look at his watch, and asked, "What about Dimiri and Sanny?" ”

The older boy shook his head and replied, "I went to the community school when I was out of school, and the two of them have already left, so maybe they will be coming back soon." The school bus always likes to take a long trip to the children in other neighborhoods first, and the time is almost up. ”

The boy's voice fell, and a yellow bus slowly drove in across the street. After the bus left, a group of children about eleven or twelve years old chatted happily and walked across the street to their homes. Until the group of children dispersed, another brown-haired girl came over with a school bag.

The girl walked into the courtyard, and when she saw her brother and father in the courtyard, she couldn't help but be stunned, and she asked with some surprise, "Hasn't Shanny come back yet?" ”

Her words couldn't help but make the three people in the courtyard stunned for a moment, the middle-aged man's face changed, and he suddenly rushed up, grabbed the girl's arm a little nervously and asked, "Dimilie, you didn't come back with Sanny?" ”

Dimilli was also a little flustered when she found out that her sister had not come home, "I went to her class and the teacher said that she was not feeling well and went to the health room. But the teacher in the health room said that she had already called you with a sick note and asked you to pick her up! ”

The middle-aged man's face became even more ugly, because he had been staying in the yard and doing things, and he had not received a call from the school at all. The two boys on one side were even more anxious, their eyes glanced out, and they almost wanted to rush out to find their sister.

Wen Zhong was very puzzled, judging from the situation just now, the eldest in this family, the girl named Shanni seemed to occupy a very important position in everyone's hearts. It's just that he doesn't understand what this memory wants to show to him.

But his doubts were soon answered, and when the middle-aged man put on his jacket and told the eldest blonde boy to take care of his younger siblings, he would go out and look for them.

But the blonde boy suddenly pointed to the end of the street and said, "Father, it's Sanny!" She's back! ”

Following the direction the boy pointed, Bun Zhong saw a little girl about twelve years old struggling to pull something and appear at the end of the street. Seeing this girl, Wen Zhong kind of understood why the style of this house was so strange.

The girl obviously also had brown hair, but she deliberately dyed it all black. Wearing a black tight-fitting leather jacket, although he did not wear many strange decorations, he wore a silver metal skull on his chest, which seemed to express that this was a fan of hardcore punk.

If it weren't for the thick makeup on the girl's face, Wen Zhong believed that she would be very delicate. The girl's face was covered with some white foundation, which made her whole face very fair, her lips were painted with purple-black lipstick, and her only eye was painted with a thick circle of eyeshadow, which looked indescribably weird.

Yes, the only eye. The little girl's right eye is blind, and there is a deep scar on it, and there are some traces of fire on the scar, which makes people feel a little distressed, and I don't know what the child went through back then.

The little girl was struggling to pull something at this time, and when the people in the courtyard saw her sister coming back, they rushed out in a hurry, and Wen Zhong followed.

"Sanny, where have you been? What is this!? The middle-aged man, who was the father, rushed forward in a hurry, grabbed Sunny's shoulders firmly, and looked at his daughter reproachfully.

But the girl named Shanni looked at her father with an indifferent face, as if she was looking at a stranger, not only in the face of the middle-aged man, but also in the face of her brother and sister. Indifferent... It's heart-wrenching.

As if he was hurt by his sister's eyes, the blonde boy said with some reproach: "Why are you running around, don't you know that everyone is worried about you?" ”

But Shanny didn't answer, or ignored her brother, she looked at her father indifferently: "I want to save him!" So came back late! ”

Although it was only a short explanation, it made the middle-aged man extremely happy, and his face not only did not have an anxious application, but showed a hint of joy: "Is it a puppy?" It's okay, let's save it! ”

But when they looked behind Sanny, they were all stunned. Wen Zhong, who was standing on the side, was also stunned, because Shanni dragged back a person... This man is very familiar with him, because it is himself!
