Chapter 21 All Guests
"So, what are you going to do?" The young Lin Jun returned home downstairs in the evening after sending off the cherry blossoms. "If I had a plan, I wouldn't have come to you." Lin said with a self-deprecating smile, "Haha, too." After all, 'I' was a tsundere at the time. Young Lin Duan also said with a mischievous smile.
"You're pretty lively and straightforward. What did you do in the middle? ”
“。。。 We were like that when we were kids, it's just that you and I have forgotten about it. ”
"I don't think it'll be possible to remember it in the future... I just want to find something to do now, but in my situation, I can't find a job. Acquaintances can also become strangers as the day ends. ”
"I've gotten smaller and my brain has gotten a lot dumber. I guess I can't get you the idea, but what about the old man? What is he doing? He hasn't been with me since. Was it on that mountain all along? ”
"No, I vaguely saw him once when I was asleep. That guy should be reading, right? But I can't calm down to read a book... Oh, it's a person. The three of them are completely different. ”
"yes, it's still very similar. Anyway, there's nothing you want to do? If you want to eat, watch, or play, you can do it. You don't have to worry about money. I secretly made a lot of money online because I knew something about the past. ”
"You ... Never mind. I ask you, do you think it's good to be like this now? I've always wanted to get everything back on track. Let time flow again. But the old man doesn't think so, what about you? ”
"My words are the same as yours, and I hope that after my death, the story of the world will continue. I hope to save Sakura, and I hope to put all the regrets that I once had... But I'm just getting younger day by day. My positive attitude and hope towards reality are growing because I am becoming more and more simple-minded and cheerful. But I know that in fact, the real hope is getting smaller and smaller. I just have all the memories on the axis. I can't change anything in the middle of it. It's a weakness, but I think only you can do it outside the axis ... What I can't do because I'm stuck in time. So I'm actually quite dependent on you, after all, the old man never comes to me, this child's body is too weak. Every night I dread loneliness, but when I think about you being like me, I feel at ease. Although I know that you are as weak as I am, it is precisely because you are me that only we know each other that we are so close ... Brother. The young Lin Duan smiled and complained to Lin Jian with a mischievous smile. I'm just ashamed to hear myself say that. Although Lin Duan said this, a warm smile was already on his face that was different from the cold just now.
At night, street lamps illuminate the roads on both sides, and the middle of the road is dark and bright. After Lin Duan was separated from his childhood, he walked aimlessly on the streets alone. He had just asked him as a child to inquire about the story of the mountain and the ancient legends, as well as the "god of time" who was in charge of the mountain that his elders respected and liked but did not worship. Nights always remind people of bad memories, and Lin Duan is not sleepy, so he is ready to listen to his young words and go to various places to play and relax. "But that guy really has a way." Lin Duan muttered to himself, falling into the memory of the conversation just now.
"Go back, or our mother will be worried." Lin Duan said and prepared to say goodbye. "Hmm. Oh! By the way, it's not convenient now, you can go to yesterday. Find me and I'll give you the money. The young Lin Duan said. So Lin asked puzzledly: "Money?" Can you keep your money until yesterday? The young Lin Duan replied with a proud expression: "I can earn it again tomorrow." Do you know how useful it is to know the next day's news? Besides, it is a good thing to be able to go back to yesterday without anything, that is, you can borrow a lot of money without being collected. And in the future, if you help me save money, I won't have to operate every day. I've never seen what that mountain looks like at the top, but it looks like a lot of people from what you said. Hahaha, when the time comes, pile up the banknotes on the top of the mountain, and we will become successful people... The young Lin Duan became more and more energetic the more he spoke, and when he said "piled up on the top of the mountain", he was in a trance with a smile on his face, as if he was thinking about that scene. When Lin Duan heard him say this, he also became elated. "Damn, you're a genius! In the case of loan sharks, there are some black places that lend you even if you are a child. That's great. I'm starting to think it's good that time is like this ... Just kidding. ”
"Go to him first and get the money, and then go relax and relax." Lin Duan said that he returned to the place where there was no one in the mountains, and returned to yesterday. After that, Lin Duan trotted all the way to the agreed place. "Yo, it's strange to make money." Young Lin stood there and beckoned to him. "Do you know any loan shark dens?" "Well, knowing one, it's pretty easy to talk. But don't be surprised to see him. The young Lin said with a mischievous smile. Well? Astonished? Is it someone I know? Lin asked puzzled. Well, you'll know when you see it. ”。
At a stall on the side of the street, two kind-looking couples were selling fruit. While the young Lin Duan made it look like he was picking fruits, he said to the proprietress in a cheerful voice: "Auntie, is this selling fish?" The proprietress looked puzzled and said kindly, "Little friend, are you going to the wrong store?" I'm a fruit shop, what kind of fish do I sell? The young Lin Duan still smiled and said, "Arowana." The proprietress said, "Oh, let the uncle take you there." Is he your brother? "Well, yes." "Okay, then you go get it." Lin Duan also realized that this was a code, so he and the young Lin Duan followed the boss into the room full of fruits behind the stall, and went down to the basement through the corridor. The basement was damp and dark, and the passage was guarded. Seeing that it was the owner of the fruit shop, they were all silent. At the end, the owner of the fruit shop knocked on the door and said, "Boss, it's me, Arowana." Then a voice sounded in the house that was incomparably familiar with fear and disgust, "Come in." "When I entered the room, the decoration of the room was different from the outside, it was very luxurious, and behind the computer in the middle was the gang boss who let the younger brother kill him halfway. Next to them are two younger brothers. Lin Duan was first scared, then angry. But the other party doesn't know him, and even if he is in normal mental condition now, he is by no means a match for this kind of gang boss. The young Lin Duan seemed to be happy that Lin Duan was not impulsive, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. The man behind the computer spoke: "Are you two going to borrow from a loan shark?" Juvenile Lin Duan: "Yes." It's me who wants to borrow money. But after all, I was my age, so I found someone to help me. The boss of the gang said indifferently: "Oh, the bodyguard, is it?" The eyes are good, but the body is not qualified. How much do you want to borrow? As soon as the words fell, the little brother on the side said, "Boss, this guy is a child." I can't pay it back. The boss still said indifferently: "Since you know the code, you are a guest." If you can't afford it, there is naturally a way to pay it back. The younger brother stopped talking, and the young Lin Duan said, "500,000." "Oh, you fill out the form." The boss gave the young Lin a form with some addresses and privacy questions. The young Lin calmly filled it out and handed it to him. Although Lin Duan was shocked, he still pretended to be a bodyguard and stood by without moving. I saw that the man looked at the form, operated on the computer, and said, "Well, the information filled in is true, and the book can be recovered." "Boss, I still think it's ridiculous. How could he need so much money for a child? The little brother on the side couldn't help but ask again. Didn't you say that? Everyone who comes is a guest. Regardless of the reason, the family breakdown is not something we need to worry about. After all, there are all kinds of scum in this world. I'm curious, though. But it's still important to be hospitable. The boss still said as if he didn't care about anything.
Lin Duan and the young Lin Duan walked down the street pushing a cart. The cart was covered with miscellaneous items, and several suitcases were hidden underneath. "But you're really strong, and you're not afraid of that situation." "I'm also surprised that children are like that, usually very timid, but sometimes they are unusually brave. Besides, I don't think he can do anything to me, and I'll only be two if he kills me. Lin Duan's shock just now hadn't eased up, but he looked at the trolley and laughed again. No matter what happens, money is money. Lin Duan didn't know whether to talk to himself or to the young Lin Duan. Oh, yes. You can't just take it alone, it's a shared asset. But you can borrow it again at any time. You have to go around and have fun, after all, your time is unlimited, don't come back with a gloomy face. Brother. "The young Lin Duan is still smiling as if he is amusing Lin Duan." You don't need to say it. Lin Duan still replied with a proud smile.
