For the children who built a makeshift hut out of discarded boards in a dilapidated house, there was no compensation for the forced relocation.

It also means that a group of children will be left without a place to live, living on the streets, and without even access to money.

The small slab house was left behind by the people who lived here when they left, and when the children found it, they moved out of the hole in the bridge and moved in.

Not far from this old district, there is a scrap yard, and they used the money from the sale of scrap to buy very shabby and simple wooden beds and some living furniture from the staff of the yard.

There are five small board houses, each with a small area of about eight square meters, and a total of six children, two girls and four boys.

Jingshu shared one room with another girl, and three rooms were divided among the four boys, including twins, about thirteen years old, who lived together.

The time to move out is set for the day after tomorrow, all of them must leave, this place is going to be demolished for the real estate company to build a new building, Jingshu and they will go out tomorrow to find a new place to live, tonight, the six children gathered around to discuss.

Jingshu's room had a red blanket spread on the floor, and they sat around, all with sad faces.

"Or ...... Shall we go back to the welfare home? The little girl sitting next to Jingshu had a slight voice, she lowered her head, and the long bangs on her forehead covered her eyes.

The girl is very thin, her skin is slightly yellow, and her arms look like no flesh, like a skinny and bone, malnourished, but her face is very good-looking, she is a beauty embryo, if the nutrition keeps up, take care of it, she will definitely be a white and tender beauty.

"Go back?! How can that?! We've all been kicked out, that disgusting scum is still there, and if you can't go back, you have to say otherwise, even if you go back, are you willing to continue to be bullied by him?! The younger brother of the twins was emotional, although he was only ten years old, but the children who were accustomed to seeing the warmth and coldness of the world since he was a child already had a precocious maturity that did not match his age.

When the girl heard the word "scum", she immediately trembled, her head lowered, and she looked very scared, "Yes, I'm sorry!" It's all because of me that I will affect you......"

Seeing this, the younger brother immediately frowned in a panic and said, "No, Lingling!" I didn't mean that, I didn't blame you! ”

"But, but...... If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been kicked out......"

Jing Shu sighed, stretched out his hand to grab her, patted her back and said, "Don't cry, I'll be honest with you, in fact, I didn't want to stay in that place for a long time, and being able to leave just happened to be what I wanted, don't blame yourself." ”

"That's right! I've long seen that scumbag is not pleasing to the eye, even if you don't say it, I'll find a chance to beat him! The younger brother said.

Lingling was held by Jingshu, although everyone said that it had nothing to do with her, but the girl still felt that it was her fault.

"Okay, tomorrow the twins and I will go out to find out if there is any other suitable place, the big fat Xiaoer and Xiao Wang will accompany Lingling at home, and by the way, pack up and pack up the things, and the day after tomorrow, we will move." Jing Shudao.

Everyone had no objection, "Okay, if you clean up, you can actually start tonight." The older brother of the twins, Dao, is more calm than his impulsive younger brother.

"Got it, it's going to be six o'clock soon, and the uncle at the CD store is going to play cartoons again, or ...... Worry about putting it aside in advance, it's the last time, let's go take a look. "Big Fat proposed.

Jingshu nodded and smiled, "Okay," she patted Lingling, "Don't cry silly girl, go, watch cartoons, tonight should be the finale, don't miss it." ”

The girl sobbed, came out of her arms, and said in a voice as small as a mosquito, "Uh-huh......"

In the corner, the white-haired child sitting on the small wooden bench in Jingshu quietly watched these people, staying here for a while, Zero One did not leave, he was full of curiosity and interest in this group of children who lived at the bottom and did not take care of them.

How far will they go by struggling in the mud on their own?

Zero One's abilities are limited in this world, and as an outsider, he can only watch, not participate, and of course, even if he can, he has no intention of making a move.

The children went out to watch cartoons again, and Zero One followed Jingshu, stood on tiptoe, jumped on her back, and wrapped his arms around her neck, and the weightless child was the same as the air, and no one would feel his presence.

However, after arriving at the CD shop, Jingshu and the others found that the store had closed.

It was closed this morning because it was moving.

Disappointment fell on everyone's face, and the only comfort they could get seemed to be gone.

"We ...... Let's go back, don't you have to pack your things? Lingling tugged at Jingshu's sleeve and said in frustration.

Jing Shuhui held her, combed her hair and said, "Well, let's go, do you want to stay and sleep with me tonight?" I'll tell you stories. ”

Lingling nodded and whispered, "Yes." ”

Jingshu's bed is small, but it can accommodate two small children. Lingling is six years old this year, very thin and thin, and doesn't take up much space at all.

After wiping the body clean with hot water, the two of them went to bed, Lingling shrunk in the bed, closed her eyes and listened to the story of her sister next to her, except for Jing Shu doing some small work while going to school, no one else reads, they don't have a smart brain like her, they don't forget, and it is difficult to do both learning and making money.

Therefore, even though Jingshu's primary school can be tuition-free, they still choose to give up because they are worried about lack of time.

Jingshu's voice is still in the immaturity of a child, and he also tells the story with some love.

Zero One was lying on the edge of the small bed, supporting her head with one hand, her white hair blowing down on the quilt covering the two children, her golden vertical pupils staring at the serious storyteller without blinking, her hair was scattered, and since there was no hair dryer, she could only wait for her wet hair to be blown dry by the natural wind blowing into the window.

Lingling didn't wash her hair because her hair was still clean.

The child's innocent voice echoes softly in the room with only a dim lamp, and the night breeze blows in from the window, blowing away the dullness and heat of the room, bringing the coolness of the summer night. Zero One could also feel the wind, which blew his white hair slightly, and it felt a little tickling.

In the girl's quiet and soft voice, it seemed that even the gods were infected by this innocent and gentle tone, and their eyelids became heavy, and they wanted to enter a dream with her tenderness.

"Does it sound good?" After finishing speaking, Jing Shu asked. However, there was no response.

The sleepy white-haired child was awakened a little by this question, so he leaned in slightly, nodded and said, "Nice, I still want it." ”

However, the child who responded fell asleep and was not heard.

Lingling's breathing gradually evened out, and after noticing this, Jingshu's voice also disappeared.

She turned her head to look at her, smiled, and helped tuck the quilt.

Then he turned off the night light that was placed next to him, took Lingling into his arms, closed his eyes, and said, "Good night." ”

What neither of them knew, of course, was that on the quilt they were covering, there was an invisible child lying on his stomach, with long hair covering him, as if he was wrapped in snow as a blanket.

The golden vertical pupils crossed a trace of disappointment, and wanted to wake her up to talk again, but when he saw the girl who had fallen asleep, he could only sigh helplessly, lie on the quilt, and reply to the girl in the same way-

"Good night."

Then he closed his eyes, emptied his brain, and seemed to have stepped into a dream with the two of them in this Ningxia.

Zero One doesn't sleep, he only sleeps, but even in his dreams, others can't see him.

He would look at what Jingshu dreamed about at night, it used to be food, clothes, cartoons, and money, all of which made Zero One feel bored.

But this time, it seems that something appeared in her dream that Zero One hadn't seen.

It's not like it's good.

At least not for Jingshu.

She had never met her parents, and from the time she knew it, people around her were saying that she was just an adopted orphan, and at the age of five, her adoptive "mother" finally became pregnant, so she was secretly sent to another welfare home.

The location of the welfare home is remote, there are not many people, and the conditions are very poor, and the director is a fifty-year-old man, fat head, big ears, and bloated body, he does not look like a good person, in fact, this is indeed a scumbag.

He used the children in it to defraud the society of donations, and privately engaged in "child trafficking", ostensibly adoption, but actually sold for money.

When Jingshu first arrived here, he was deliberately cut off by the brother of the twins, thinking that this was to find her stubble, but it turned out to be saving her.

The dean would sell the good-looking children and keep the rest to cheat the money, and after Jingshu saw a money transaction, he began to make his hair very ugly with a knife.

The children hated the dean, but they couldn't leave without the ability to survive.

Jingshu has a strong sense of self since she was a child, it seems that there is a difference from ordinary people, this difference can't be seen at a glance, you need to observe with your heart to know, she knows very well that her future road may not be smooth sailing, the name is obtained by herself, and the pocket money is obtained by using a little cleverness, in the family that adopted her, from the first time she heard the words that ridiculed her for not being her own, Jingshu expected that she might leave this home one day.

The adoptive parents have an average family background, but they don't treat Jingshu harshly materially, and occasionally take a dollar or two for her to buy what she wants, and Jingshu usually saves it.

Maybe she was mentally prepared, so when she was sent to a strange welfare home later, she didn't feel sad or hateful, probably feeling helpless like "sure enough" and "this day is still here".

Standing at the door, looking at the scene of her adoptive parents getting into the car, after the car started, she suddenly bowed to their departing backs, no matter what, five years of material care, still very grateful. After she started saving, in a year, she saved a total of 300 yuan of scattered paper tickets and coins.

I stayed in the welfare home for two years, and I planned to leave a few years older, at least there was food and shelter here.

But this plan changed after Lingling's arrival.

Lingling was very good-looking when she first arrived, her parents died in a car accident, and there were no other relatives, and the beautiful appearance and healthy skin of the little girl can be seen how much she was pampered by her parents.

And the dean also showed a covetous gaze that he had never seen before when he saw her.

Jing Shu was lucky when he first came, he was cut by his younger brother in the twins, and he was a little dirty when he saw the dean, but Lingling was not so lucky.

The dean is unusually good to her, which is not a good thing, maybe it is a girl who has just lost a loved one to rely on, Lingling trusts this "amiable" dean very much, and will not resist, for some of the man's "intimate" actions, the child does not understand the true meaning of this, only thinks that it is the same love as his parents, so he has not told anyone.

Until one night, Jingshu came out of the bathroom in pajamas and pajamas after going to the toilet, and heard the sound of the door opening from the door next to him in the quiet dormitory corridor.

She thought it was Lingling who had gotten up, but her sensitive hearing caught a man's low laugh.

Jing Shu was stunned, unconsciously slowed down, and walked towards the room.

Leaning against the door, she clearly heard the dean's fierce threatening voice and Lingling's cry when she was covered in her mouth!

"Don't cry! Don't scream! ”

"If you dare to speak out, I will strangle you!"

"What are you doing so tightly dressed at night?! Take it off! ”

Three sentences, making the strings in Jingshu's head feel like someone had cut them with an axe in an instant! A wave of anger welled up in her heart, she had read a lot of books, and she knew a little about it, so she naturally knew what might happen next.

The fire was burning in her heart, the door was locked by scum, she couldn't open it without a key, so she didn't think about it, she went straight back to her room, grabbed a pencil sharpened by a pencil sharpener on the table, opened the window and climbed up, grabbed the drainage pipe in the middle and jumped onto the window railing next to it!

The summer nights were hot, and the children would not close the windows when they slept, and Jing Shu's movements did not cause much movement, or rather, the scum was so immersed in the tearing movements at hand that he ignored the little girl behind him with red eyes and a pencil tightly as he approached step by step.

Lingling's clothes were torn, and her mouth was tied tightly by the man with a black strap, and she couldn't call for help, only whimpering.

The man reached for her pants again, and just as she began to tear them, all of a sudden, the sharp end of a pencil stabbed hard into his neck!

Because the refill was too brittle and didn't pierce it deeply, the man screamed, and his painful facial features were twisted and hideous! Put your hand on the back of your neck and want to pull the pencil out!

And Jing Shu took this opportunity to grab Lingling on the bed, pulled a coat by the way, pulled her from the inside and opened the door to escape!

The old man's face turned red, and he hurriedly chased him out!

And these movements also made the children in the other rooms wake up, the twins and several other children who have a good relationship saw Jingshu pulling Lingling to run wildly in the corridor, from Lingling's crying face and torn pajamas under her coat, they seemed to know something, so the children's faces suddenly looked the same as Jingshu!

The hatred and disgust that had accumulated over the years exploded at this moment, and several children who had a good relationship took up arms and rushed to the dean with the twins!

Jingshu took Lingling and ran outside, dressed her simply with the clothes drying in the yard, and took her to the toy room under the slide to hide.

"Stay here." Jing Shu said, then turned around and picked up the shovel on the side, dragged the shovel with his thin arm and walked back with cold eyes.

The shovel was as tall and heavy as her, and it would be very difficult for a little girl to lift it.

But at this time, those who are blinded by anger do not seem to feel the heaviness!

Zero One looked at her and followed Jing Shu back to the corridor, the dean's strength was still greater than that of this group of children, and their faces were marked with red marks, you can imagine how hard the man was, he grabbed the hair of his twin brother, and sneered with a hideous face: "Little rabbit cubs, eat things inside and out, a group of cheap dog things!" Who gave you the courage to rebel!? Looking for death, right?! ”

I'm going to slam his head against the wall!

But at this moment, the shovel suddenly hit his head from the other side!

"Bang!!"

The voice was so loud that the dean's head suddenly broke and his head flowed!

He screamed miserably, glaring at Jing Shu with scarlet eyes, "You slut!!" ”

The twin brother took the opportunity to pick up the chair and slammed it on the top of the dean's head!!

This movement was so loud that it finally woke up the staff living in another small bungalow, and the few people who came in a hurry saw the dean lying on the ground with hideous eyes, he pointed to Jingshu and the others, and his voice was sharp and terrifying-

"Catch them, catch them!! This bunch of dog stuff is going to make—"

Before he finished speaking, Jing Shu slapped him in the face with another shovel! Knocked the man unconscious completely!

His face was covered with blood, his nose was knocked down, and the staff were frightened by this scene, and they didn't know what to do for a while!

The girl standing next to the man's body turned her head and asked, "You want to arrest us?" ”

Her face was stained with blood, and her dark eyes were like a terrifying bottomless cold cave.

*

The matter was over, and the dean was sent to the hospital, where his man's organs were completely destroyed by the twins and could no longer be used in this life.

Jingshu and they were taken away, perhaps because the staff knew the reason for this incident in their hearts, and they didn't dare to make a big fuss, otherwise everything that was operating behind the welfare home might be exposed.

After leaving the orphanage, they temporarily lived in a bridge cave.

The conditions here are not very good, so I can only accommodate them temporarily, and a group of children go out to find a way to get money during the day, and come back at night to sleep.

A "bed" made of blankets squeezes six children.

Lingling slept on the outside, next to Jingshu, separating her from the other four boys. The little girl had a shadow of the opposite sex in her heart, and she didn't dare to leave Jingshu half a step away from Jingshu during that time.

Zero One was barefoot, reluctant to enter the bridge hole, and looked over the shore.

Jingshu in the dream doesn't seem to be able to sleep much at night.

She got up, walked to the entrance of the bridge, and looked at the sky.

Some of the little pale faces had a little scar, which was injured during the daytime when they were trying to make money.

The dark pupils are as quiet as black pearls, turning with translucent light.

Tonight is the rare fifteenth day of the full moon, but it is not the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Zero One sat on the railing of the bridge bank and stared quietly at this smaller Jingshu, and suddenly! Zero Yi's eyes widened, and his handsome and lovely face appeared a little incredulous!!

- Jing Shu looked at where he was!

I don't know if it's an illusion, the white-haired boy's golden vertical pupils collided with the girl's eyes without any warning at the intersection of time and space! At that moment, he felt that he might have entered her sight, and the secret observation he had been secretly observing all this time seemed to be discovered, and the tension and throbbing that inexplicably surged into his heart made his heart skip a beat!

But in the next second, the girl looked away again, her eyes were clear, no different from before, and behind Zero One, there was the sound of a kitten plucking leaves on a big tree.

Zero paused, and suddenly understood that Jingshu had seen a cat.

- I see.

He thought, it turned out to be watching a cat.

I breathed a sigh of relief, but I also felt a little uncomfortable that I had never felt before.

- It's like being scared and looking forward to what is coming, but in the end you get a delusional sense of loss.

*

Some people moved away from the nearby old town, so Jingshu and they secretly moved in.

There is a primary school in the old city, which is full of children from poor families, the principal is very good and kind, this is a public school, there is no tuition fee, and you only need to pay 15 yuan per semester.

Knowing that the conditions of Jing Shu and the others were difficult, they also waived the material fee. However, because Jingshu does not have a hukou, it cannot be registered.

Even so, the headmaster finally secretly let her in to study.

This is where the dream ends.

Maybe Jingshu wants to wake up in a good time.

When he came out of the dream, the white-haired little boy opened his eyes, but he was a little surprised to find that he didn't know how to lie down and face to face with Jingshu!

He saw her fluttering eyelashes and knew she was about to wake up.

I was about to sit up, but as in a dream, I met the girl's suddenly open dark eyes without the slightest defense!

So Zero One completely stiffened!

His brain was completely occupied by an emotion called "nervousness", and the sound of his heartbeat echoed in his ears in his chest for a long time.
