From a very young age, I knew that the world I knew was different from most ordinary people. I, I have synaesthesia. To put it simply, in a world like me, numbers, words, and sounds are all colored, and they all exist in such a unique way.

For as long as I can remember, every time a sound slides over my eardrum, my eyes will change color.

There will be many people who think it is cool, like they have a mysterious power given by God, but they don't know that such people are an empty island in their hearts.

Before I met Lin Chuan, I thought that my life would be such a lonely and quiet life, and then I hesitated to finish my life and passed away quietly in a corner of the city.

But all this changed after meeting him, like a train that deviated from its original track and went all the way to the unknown.

It was a very special day, I took a sweltering intercity bus from my father's prison to Anseong. The car stopped and stopped, most of the people in the car were drowsy, only you Lin Chuan sat next to me with his eyelids propped up, and he secretly stared at me from time to time.

At that time, I thought I had encountered a pervert with a distorted mind, and deliberately moved to the window, but I kept thinking about which station along the way was not far from the police station.

"Excuse me, are you Qiuxi? Anshi Attached No. 2 Middle School? He asked suddenly, politely, a beautiful gray-brown goat that was not aggressive.

I looked back at him and nodded hesitantly.

"What a coincidence, I'm Lin Chuan, Qiuxi. I haven't seen this for many years. The boy's eyes sparkled with excitement.

I tried my best to search for the thin and slender handsome man in front of me from my memory, although I vaguely remembered the name of Lin Chuan, but I couldn't remember that there was such a person, probably because the new memories after the transfer were too heavy and squeezed the previous ones away. "Lin Chuan." I politely pretended to remember.

"It's been a long time." I added weakly.

Lin Chuan looked at me and talked to himself about where those classmates have been scattered over the years, who went to the sea to do business and made a lot of money in recent years, and who went to public welfare organizations all over the world to help the poor.

He chattered like a cicada on a banyan tree in the morning, but I wasn't interested in hearing what kind of life those people had, remembering that when I was a teenager, human beings were naturally alienated and made me almost do everything alone. I go to lunch alone, I go to after-school cram school alone, I go to the library when I take a nap, but fortunately, I always get back to the top of my grades on such lonely days.

When I was a child, my parents always smiled when they saw the report card, and they showed off everywhere, and in their own opinion, the name appeared on the edge of the paper so abruptly, but more like a dispensable black border.

Until one day, a senior boy grabbed me in the corridor after the math and science competition: "Your three-dimensional picture of question 34 is wrong, and the auxiliary line is not cut on the middle vertical line, but on the middle line." "Later I learned that person was you, Lin Chuan.

In the backlit hallway, the boy stood on the inside of the light, tall and straight, and the edges of his body were shaggy and glowing as he spoke.

"What?" I was stunned.

"You're Qiuxi, right, I've seen you on the school's outstanding student bulletin board."

"Oh, that ......" because of the lack of language exercises, so he always speaks in a stumbling manner, and he feels stupid like a pig.

"See you later!" The boys were asked out by several other boys in jerseys.

At that time, I looked for him out of a strong curiosity or in my adolescence, maybe because I had been lonely for too long and wanted to have some fun. But in the end, within a few days, the principal's passionate 100-day pledge meeting washed this matter away.

"Autumn Tide ......" he called my name, and then paused.

I looked back at him, and his eyes were shining, "We just have a class reunion on the 15th of next month, so you can come along." As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and held up the QR code of WeChat in front of me.

"You should go to more parties or something, it's good for your mental breakdown......" Anna's voice echoed in her head.

"Okay, I'll be there on time."

Lin Chuan got off the train in the city more than 30 kilometers away from the center of An, and I watched him stand by the deserted platform with a navy blue bag on his back, facing the sunset. In the distance, a large expanse of cooking smoke rises and rises, and there seems to be a winding road on the verdant side of the mountain, and rows of motorcycle teenagers whizz past humming songs that have been sung endlessly over the years.

The car slammed the door shut and started, the engine trembled slightly, and I saw the gray-brown goat with a gold rim looking back at me, shaking out its huge silver-white wings, and running towards the verdant mountains and rivers without looking back.

I met Lin Chuan again at the class reunion.

That day, Anna specially chose a white dress for me that was said to be beautiful, and this was verified when I stepped into the hotel box.

"Autumn tide! I haven't seen you for so many years, why is it so beautiful~"

"Come on, come on, take a seat, our goddess college tyrant." Several classmates praised each other.

In the unfamiliar crowd, I found a familiar face - Lin Chuan. He squinted and sat in the sun, neat casual T-shirt, and gentle eyebrows like a warm spring breeze blowing people's hearts. I bowed to him, and he smiled and nodded.

At this time, a man in a Hermes Hugh suit came in.

"Hello everyone, I'm late." The man's tone was filled with unstoppable pride and self-confidence. A gray-brown falcon standing still.

With a bright smile and a pair of slender eyes, the man scanned the people in the room back and forth.

"Hurry up, our Baili Young Master, take a seat, don't hold it, there is no one else here." A bespectacled male classmate got up and pulled the emaciated and tall man.

Baili Yan sneered, tore the tie that was loosened and tied tightly at the neckline with his fingered hand, revealing his blue and white collarbones, and then turned around and took off his coat and put it on the back of the chair, and sat down with his body loose. While still smiling, he muttered, "I thought it was another dinner." ”

"Our young master Baili is really busy, don't want it, I heard that your business has been bigger recently, and several little girls in our company are discussing what technology upstarts." The girl sitting next to her quipped.

"But no, who would have thought that our classmates this year, our young master Baili is now the biggest in the family."

"That's it, now that we think about it, we have been reading for so many years, it is better to go out early like Baili."

Baili Nan's face was slightly gloomy when he heard this, but the turnover of the business field for many years had already allowed him to practice the ability to landslide without changing his face. The ingenious style of painting changed, "No, yes, are all our classmates here?" I've heard that there are a lot of people here today. ”

"Today the first in our class is here, Nuo, Qiuxi." The girl who was talking next to me pointed her finger at me politely, and I pretended to listen to the chat of the classmates next to me and deliberately avoided the gaze of Baili Nan Ticket.

In the middle of summer that year, flowers were blooming everywhere, I hid behind the tree and quietly looked at Baili Nan's right hand wrapped in a thick bandage, his back with his head down and lonely away, embedded in time, became a memory that I can never dissipate. That year, I stood on the mountain peak in a daze, watching him swoop down into the abyss of the cliff with his immature and thin wings, and never to be seen.

"Qiuxi, don't come unharmed." Baili Nan put away his smile, his brows twitched secretly, and he looked at me with a light in his eyes.

I didn't dare to look up into his eyes, I just kept my head down and was silent.
