Chapter 14: Puppets (2)

"No need, who knows how many dead people are named Zhou Dedong!"

She thought for a moment and seemed to agree with my suggestion: "Yes. "

18 years ago:

Once, the oil production team showed a movie, and Liu Mumei came to the oil production team again.

At that time, the relationship between Li Zhan and her changed substantially......

After 18 years:

It was an American romance film.

Before the performance, I arranged Liu Mumei in the best position.

I sat next to her.

The other employees also came out one after another, and the loud deputy captain was in charge of order, and he ran around shouting and arranged for everyone to sit down.

The lights go out and the movie begins.

I said to her, "I'm a bad person. I'm sitting next to you, aren't you afraid? "

"Bad people never say they're bad."

"Are you a good person or a bad person?"

"Me? Good guys, of course. "

"Yes, bad people never say they're bad people."

"You're really bad!"

"I said I'm bad, but you still don't believe me."

After a while, I said seriously, "To be precise, I'm a good person who has done a lot of bad things." There is also a group of people, who are bad people who have done a lot of good things. I don't look like them. "

She turned her head and took a serious look at what I looked like.

I continued: "The world is made up of good people who have done bad things and bad people who have done good things. Who are the good guys? This is an important question, and it's easy to get confused. Who are the bad guys? This is also an important question, and it is not easy to figure out. "

She interrupted me abruptly and whispered, "Do you dare to come with me?" "

Some people seem timid, but they are actually big. I feel that every time Liu Mu said this, he didn't avoid the people nearby at all.

Some people seem to be bold, but in fact it is the opposite. Like me.

"You're going to ...... Do? "

"If you don't dare, forget it." She smiled softly and watched the movie. There seemed to be a hint of contempt in her eyes.

I looked around, leaned into her ear and said, "I'll go first, you go later, don't be too eye-catching." "

In this way, Liu Muyi and I walked out of the compound of the oil production team one after the other, and walked along the crooked dirt road in the meadow.

There is a poplar forest between the oil production team and the town of Fangshan. I walked over to her as I talked.

Digging into the poplar forest, we were hidden by the dense foliage.

She looked at me quietly.

I watched her quietly, too.

Suddenly, she hugged me.

I didn't resist. Only fools resist.

The night was cool, and the air seemed to be gone. The scent of trees, the scent of grass, and her scent wafted through the air.

When we got up from the ground, her hair was covered in blades of grass and thistles. This incident worried me for days.

She touched a nearby tree like a blind man, as if looking for a mark.

"What are you touching?" I asked her.

She looked around and said, "Eighteen years ago, a man and a woman had sex here. "

Her words struck me a little horrified: "How do you know? "

She smiled: "There is their body temperature on the ground, you touch it." "

18 years ago:

After many contacts, Li Zhan found that there was no problem with this Liu Mu.

She always had a notebook in her pocket, and whenever others weren't paying attention, she would pull it out and write something.

Once, she fell asleep in Li Zhan's dormitory, and Li Zhan secretly took out the notebook and found that it was written in some running accounts.

He turned to the last page and remembered what had just happened:

15 June 1975, 13:00 hours.

The rice I ate in the oil production team, dried noodles, and meat stew.

Li Zhan Wang always seemed to be secretly observing me.

After eating, he asked me to take a nap in his bed, and he went next door to find someone to play cards

Finish......

At first, Li Zhan Wang felt that this was a quirk of Liu Mumei.

Later, he thought about it and finally found the answer to the mystery, and his head "boomed--- she had severe amnesia!

Only in this way can she remember what happened. It's as if you only know where you came from if you step on a line of marks with your feet......"

After 18 years:

Liu Mumei and I had trysts three times in that poplar forest.

Every time, I sent her home, and when I walked in front of Fangshan Town, she asked me to return. She never let me send her into town.

I still don't know where her family lives.

The night before I left Tumur, she and I met again in the poplar forest.

That night, we sat together for a long time.

She knew I was leaving, but she didn't mention it. We just sat quietly like that.

Suddenly, she asked me, "What time is it?" "

"June 6th."

"What year?"

I thought she was joking with me, so I asked, "What do you say?" "

She thought about it seriously and said tentatively: "19......75? "

I was stunned for a moment and asked lightly, "Do you have a job?" "

She looked down at the grass on the ground and said, "No." "

"Why don't you work?"

"I don't want to." She looked a little impatient.

"What does your dad do?"

She seemed to think hard for a moment, and then, looking into the distance, she said, "He's a stonemason." "

"I really don't know, what kind of business does the profession of stonemason have in modern society?"

"Dig a tombstone. Dozens of miles away from the dead people are looking for him. "

"What else?"

"He only chiseled tombstones."

I can't imagine that Liu Mumei's home is full of tombstones, with unfamiliar names engraved on them......
