Chapter 49: The Marbles of Childhood
The night was not peaceful, and problems began to arise again in the quiet prison. ,
The jailer reported that there were shadows, seven shadows, and in the corridor of the warden, I shuddered when I heard the report.
I didn't expect the three-dimensional shadow to appear, because it was already in the past, but it still appeared, and it seems that I still haven't figured out the past.
Zhou Guang came in.
"What's the matter with the shadows?"
"I saw it, I couldn't touch it, I couldn't touch it, but it was there, visually it was three-dimensional, seven people, standing in a row, walking around, lasting a few minutes, coming from somewhere, disappearing from somewhere, it was just a matter of an instant. ”
"They didn't hurt anything, so leave them alone. ”
When I said this, Zhou Guang was a little surprised, because I knew that such a thing happened at that time, and there was nothing to hurt other people, maybe it was just to create an atmosphere and curse for Alin Mountain.
I'm starting to worry about the reappearance of that deadly card, and although I know that killing is killing cards, it's hard to say whether he will play new tricks.
Zhao Chen called Zhou Guang away, and I knew that she might have acted.
It wasn't until dark that Zhou Guang came back, bringing wine and food.
"How's Mei Mei there?"
"Very well, you don't have to worry about this. ”
I looked at Zhou Guang's face, something happened.
Drinking, Zhou Guang didn't mention it, I asked.
"The coffin has been completed, and the music is really beautiful, and the beauty will break your heart. ”
Zhou Guang said this, I closed my eyes, drizzle, I shook my head.
I got drunk that day and fell asleep on the couch.
When I got up in the morning, I found that there were two boxes on the table, one black and one white, made of wood, I thought it was something Zhou Guang got for me, and I didn't pay attention to it.
I called the jailer to bring me breakfast.
While I was eating, Zhou Guang came in.
"Warden, the three-dimensional shadow is one less, seven, and six when it appeared last night. ”
I was stunned, it seems that there is really going to be trouble, this three-dimensional shadow is not as simple as I thought.
"What kind of box is this?"
I glanced at the two boxes and asked Zhou Guang.
"I don't know"
I frowned, knowing that it was not sent by Zhou Guang, so there are not many people who can enter my office.
"Open. ”
Zhou Guang opened the box, and it was filled with glass balls, marbles, black and white, I was stunned, how could it be this thing
Marbles are something I played with when I was a child, make a few pits, and then play in, my skills are average, and there is a person named Zheng Jiyu, who was my playmate when I was a child, he played very well, and always won my marbles.
My father, Huang Shi, was a capable man, and his friends all knew that his son liked to play marbles, and it stinks, and he always loses, so every time he comes, he will bring me a lot of marbles, and the first colored marbles are from my hand.
That's the only colored marbles among our friends.
I remember these things, and that childhood was happy.
"What's going on with these marbles"
Zhou Guang asked me, and I didn't know.
"It's fine. ”
I closed the box and put it under the table, I have no objection to these things, and even have some likes, after all, most of my childhood as a child was here, and it brought a lot of joy.
Zhou Guang went out, remembering that year, Zheng Jiyu, it seems that I have never won against him.
That year, Zheng Jiyu suddenly disappeared, and when he was eight years old, this person who didn't like to talk disappeared, which made me think about it for a long time.
Zheng Jiyu's family has been looking for more than a year, but they still haven't found him, this matter has always been in my heart, how could it suddenly disappear.
That's losing a child.
What I didn't expect was that at night, I wanted to go home, called Mei Mei back, asked her something, and when I changed my clothes and was about to leave, a person pushed the door and came in.
I'm annoyed that the janitor is letting anyone in
The phone rang.
"Warden, a man wanted to see you, saying that he was friends with you, and I let him in, but there was something wrong here, and I couldn't send it over. ”
I hung up the phone and looked at the man who claimed to be my friend, looking familiar, but I really couldn't remember.
Suddenly, the man raised his hand, and I was agitated and immediately touched the gun.
This man put on a pose, it was the posture of playing marbles, that posture was special, I remember, it was the posture of Zheng Jiyu playing marbles, a posture that no one can learn, a bit weird.
"Zheng Jiyu"
He smiled and nodded at me.
"Quick, sit. ”
When I saw Zheng Jiyu, I was very surprised and excited at the same time.
"Why did you disappear that year?"
"I'll talk about that later. ”
"Let's find a place to have a drink. ”
"No, I can't get out of here. ”
Zheng Jiyu's words made my heart "chuckle", what does this mean that he is not a prisoner, even if he is, he can't say that he can't leave here.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Speak slowly. ”
I called the jailer and asked him to go across the street and get six dishes, as well as wine.
Zheng Jiyu has a scratch on his face, which he has had since he was a child, and he can still see it now.
"Qiulin, I sent you marbles and received them."
"Yes, you sent it, thank you. ”
"No, in my memory, you've never beaten me, this time I'll send two boxes, one black and one white, and we'll play again. ”
I was stunned for a moment, when I was a child, it was just a memory, two big men, squatting there playing with marbles, it seemed that this could not be said, let alone done.
"Hahaha forget Jiyu, we're already adults, and those are just good memories. ”
"No, I didn't stop playing marbles, they have magical powers. ”
I was surprised that Zheng Jiyu had been playing with marbles.
"It's a special hobby, how did you disappear that year, the people in your family looked for you for a year. ”
"Let's not talk about it, we've played marbles, let's talk about it. ”
"This"
Zheng Jiyu has been asking to play marbles with me, I am the warden, if this matter is spread, isn't it not good
However, I really want to play, this kid hasn't let me win since I was a child, and I want to win him once.
"It's just, there's no venue. ”
"No, there is, the warehouse, you've cleaned it up, it's empty, just right. ”
This kid actually knows so much about the prison, the warehouse is in the backyard of the cell, how did he know?
My heart tightened a little, it seems that this Zheng Jiyu is not just as simple as playing marbles.
