291, Vortex
Zhong Feixuan looked at Zhong Jinyun's expression repeatedly, his face was serious, not like a gossip, and he was very sure that he must know the answer.
He sighed, and there was a little helplessness in that breath, the helplessness of what happened back then.
"Xie Xiang and I used to be classmates and friends."
"Classmates?" Zhong Jinyun was surprised, "Then Brother Xie is also my brother's classmate?" ”
Zhong Feixuan nodded and said, "We were still at the same table back then. ”
After Zhong Jinyun listened, his mind was quickly searching for things about Senior Xie Xiang or Brother Xie, but the only thing he could think of at that moment was the dilapidated stadium located in the deepest part of Wuhan University, which looked so out of place in the cherry blossom campus. Zhong Jinyun seemed to see the always unruly Brother Xie standing reverently in front of the tattered basketball hoop, crying and telling something.
Is it just a basketball court that can't be used?
Still is
Grave!
"Brother." Zhong Jinyun said tremblingly, "Is Senior Xie Xiang dead?" ”
The words pierced his heart like an arrow, making Zhong Feixuan completely stunned and didn't speak for a long time.
Zhong Jinyun didn't know what kind of storm Zhong Feixuan's mind was going through because of these words, and the pain after that storm. On that rainy night of lightning and thunder three years ago, that rainy night where you could smell blood, everything that was turbulent was entrenched in Zhong Feixuan's mind again, like using pliers to completely uncover your wounds, what an uncontrollable pain.
"Brother?"
Zhong Jinyun's shout pulled Zhong Feixuan back from his painful memories.
"He's dead."
Zhong Feixuan lowered his head and said in a low tone. This cruel fact, he still said after all. The hot-blooded and sunny classmate in his brain, the captain of Beifu who worked hard for the team, flashed in Zhong Feixuan's eyes, but he could no longer linger.
"Brother, then you are not."
Zhong Jinyun was about to ask, but saw Zhong Feixuan waving his hand. Apparently, he didn't want to talk about the past anymore.
The atmosphere was inexplicably silent for a while.
"What, brother, you still have to go out so late?"
Zhong Jinyun found that Zhong Feixuan suddenly got up and was about to walk towards the door.
Zhong Feixuan turned his head and said, "Jin Yun, I'm going out for something now, don't run around." Also, the preliminary inspection report has come out, and there are no problems. To be on the safe side, the doctor's advice and I were to transfer you to the best hospital in Beijing for an in-depth examination, which would take a long time, but the results would be the best. Or go to the United States, after all, medical care abroad is more guaranteed than at home. ”
After Zhong Feixuan finished speaking, he saw Zhong Jinyun looking out the window without any reaction.
"I know what you're thinking, the team is about to play the knockout round, you want to go to training, you want to play, I know you, I also know that I can't persuade you, you will definitely return to the team, but, Jin Yun."
When Zhong Feixuan said this, he suddenly walked towards Zhong Jinyun again, stretched out his hand, and inexplicably took Zhong Jinyun's head into his arms. This is the first time Zhong Feixuan has done such an action to him since Zhong Jinyun can remember.
Zhong Jinyun wanted to break free, but at that second, he heard the helplessness and love in his brother's tone.
"Jin Yun, I hope you protect yourself and don't let injuries ruin you."
After speaking, Zhong Feixuan spread his hand and walked towards the door.
At that moment, the back in Zhong Jinyun's eyes was not as resolute as he felt before, not as majestic and uninhibited as it looked, and it looked a little depressed the second the lights dimmed.
Zhong Jinyun unconsciously raised his hand, wanting to touch the back drawn by light and shadow, with lines, to feel whether there was a lonely existence at that moment.
Outside the door.
honk
honk
Honk.
The sound of the mobile phone in Zhong Feixuan's ears kept ringing, and he frowned, looking anxiously waiting for the phone to be connected.
"Hello?"
Finally, there was a voice over there.
"I want to see you."
Zhong Feixuan pondered for a long time and decided to say this.
After the two exchanged locations on the phone, they hung up the phone in a hurry.
Zhong Feixuan stared at the number on the phone screen for a long time, sighed, and left the hospital with the empty wind in the corridor.
……
An underground passage in Beijing.
The yellow lights in the tunnels are sometimes extinguished, sometimes bright, and flickering non-stop. Zhong Feixuan walked back and forth repeatedly in this uninhabited passage, and he was a little impatient, or rather expectant, when he had always been calm.
Suddenly, there was a crunch in the tunnel, the sound of cans falling on the floor.
When Zhong Feixuan heard this, he stood on his heels and turned around.
In his eyes, there was a seat of green clothes passing by, slowly approaching Zhong Feixuan in the flashing yellow light. It wasn't until they came to the front that the two pairs of eyes met again.
Zhong Feixuan took the lead and grinned: "That number really hasn't been changed." ”
The laughter sounded like it was forced to squeeze the flesh around its mouth, and it only lasted a second or two in the air, leaving only embarrassment.
"That number is the only one you can get through."
Yu Jia said coldly.
This was her most common tone of voice, but Zhong Feixuan sounded a little unfamiliar, or a sense of distance that could not be narrowed.
The empty underground passage, the two of them made the atmosphere cold again, and even the air was solidified.
"Did the nerd see you?"
Yujia asked coldly.
"Nerd?"
Zhong Feixuan was surprised for only a second, and then laughed again.
Yu Jia had only met Xie Cangxing before, and at that meeting, Xie Cangxing was still a shy little boy, and it was not an exaggeration to be called a nerd by Yu Jia.
"Yes, you asked him to come to me."
Zhong Feixuan replied.
Without waiting for Yu Jia to speak, Zhong Feixuan pulled the corners of his mouth down and said, "You have been following me for a long time, right?" ”
"Tracking?"
Yujia seemed to disdain the word, so she didn't answer again.
"For them?"
Zhong Feixuan asked. He wanted to know if Yu Jia was behind Lao Jin or not.
But Yu Jia didn't seem to intend to answer the question, she shook her head at Zhong Feixuan, and turned to leave.
"Isn't there anything you have to tell me?"
Zhong Feixuan raised his voice, and the voice echoed in this empty underground passage, as if there was a trace of helplessness.
Yujia stopped, turned his head sideways and said, "Don't investigate any further, this matter doesn't mean anything to you." It is a dangerous maelstrom, and if you insist on going your own way, death will come at you at any time. I'm here to see you today, and I just want to tell you this, and I can only tell you this. ”
After Yujia finished speaking, she walked towards the exit, but after a few steps, she stopped again.
This time she didn't look back, but added in Zhong Feixuan's tone just now,
"Don't forget that you have a younger brother, for his sake, stop."
After speaking, Yujia took out the canned beer in his pocket, opened his mouth, raised his head and poured it down, and one or two green tears flew down his eyes, and were blown away in the air by the cool breeze that swept from nowhere.
Zhong Feixuan watched Yu Jia step by step away from his sight, and at the moment when he was about to disappear, he shouted: "Thank you for remembering, I go to Wuhan University every year to worship my friends." ”
Yujia didn't stop, I don't know if she heard it, and just disappeared at the exit.
"Stop?"
Zhong Feixuan asked himself in his heart.
When he asked, he shook his head.
With his head held high, he walked out of this empty underground passage from the other side.
