Chapter 2: No Regrets
Twilight Huaijin mobilizes all connections to find Twilight Yuxi, but she disappears like a human evaporation, silently, with no trace of her anywhere.
Twilight Huaijin walked to Twilight's hospital room in despair, just in time to hear the nurse discussing a piece of news.
"What a miserable girl! He was only eighteen years old, and he was no longer there at a young age. ”
"That is to say, and the blood is almost dry, and no one will collect her body even if she is dead."
"Tsk... Poor thing..."
The nurse's voice grew farther away, softer and softer, but it was as if a hammer had been slammed into his heart.
"Eighteen," he muttered, then smiled self-deprecatingly, "How could it be her, no, she's in good health..."
As he spoke, his words paused, and the scene of Twilight Yuxi's previous speech suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Brother, I'm sick... I"
Twilight stopped talking, but was interrupted before she could say anything.
"Then go to the hospital."
Twilight was silent for a long time, and then said lightly, "Okay." ”
There was no expression on her face, and she surprised that she didn't say a word more.
……
Twilight Huaijin's face froze, his hands trembled a little, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
After a long time, the phone was connected.
“…… Huaiyu, do me a favor..."
Twilight said, his voice a rare shaky voice.
"What's the rush? You said. A gentle voice came from there.
"Help me check... Twilight Yuxi..."Twilight Huaijin's voice was a little hoarse.
"Your sister? What's wrong with her? Isn't she always with you? ”
Su Huaiyu asked suspiciously.
Twilight Huaijin was stunned for a moment, and he hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?" When did I say this? ”
Su Huaiyu on the other end listened to his anxious voice, thought for a while, and continued: "On February 20th, I had a research article to ask your sister, and I asked her where she was.
She replied: 'My family is celebrating my eighteenth birthday, what is there to say next time we meet.' Her voice sounded happy, too, and I didn't think much of it. ”
"What?" Twilight Huaijin was a little unstable, and he suddenly remembered that it was indeed Twilight's eighteenth birthday, and what did they do? Trumped-up charges were imposed on her and she was kicked out of the house.
On that day that should have been grand and splendid, he abandoned her and left her alone to face loneliness and cold.
Du Huaijin's voice trembled, and she said to Su Huaiyu calmly, "Then please help me check it." ”
Su Huaiyu didn't answer for a long time, and from Du Huaijin's surprised tone, he was already vaguely aware of something. After a long time, he said to Twilight Huaijin, "Huaijin, do you remember when we were three years old? ”
Twilight knew that when he said "the three of us" he was referring to the two of them and Twilight Yuxi, they had been playing together all day and had a very happy time.
Without waiting for Du Huaijin to answer, Su Huaiyu said to himself: "At that time, we were very good, and Yuxi was also spoiled by us and grew up, do you remember what you said when you were 7 years old?"
You said, 'When we're eighteen, my brother will give you a big birthday party.' I remember very well the serious look on your face. However, you have broken your word, and you have never broken your word to anyone, except Yoga. ”
Su Huaiyu sighed lightly and said, "Actually, she's just a child, she's just... Forced to grow up. Huai Jin, you should know what I mean, right? ”
Du Huaijin was silent, he knew very well what Su Huaiyu was talking about, but he was afraid that he would have no chance.
There is no chance to make amends for the unforgivable sins he has committed.
Su Huaiyu chuckled, "Yuxi's matter, even if you don't say it, I will investigate, don't worry." After a pause, he added, "However, you have to prepare for the worst." ”
Twilight Huaijin hung up the phone, unable to recover for a long time, he leaned against the window, and was about to light a cigarette, but suddenly remembered that smoking was prohibited in the hospital, and silently put down the cigarette in his hand.
He looked out in a daze.
At this time, Dusk's father, who had just finished calming Twilight and Twilight's mother, came out, saw Twilight Huaijin, and walked over after a little hesitation.
He patted Twilight Huaijin on the shoulder and asked, "How's it going?" Any news? ”
Dusk's father regretted it, to put it bluntly, he was the initiator of this incident, if he hadn't lost his temper and even said something like "I want to break off the relationship", things wouldn't have developed like this.
Twilight Huaijin shook her head slowly, looking thoughtfully into the distance, as if she was looking at someone.
"Dad, we... It's too much. This is not an interrogative sentence, it is a declarative sentence.
Dusk's father clenched his fists and was silent, just as he wanted to smoke a cigarette, he was stopped by Twilight Huaijin.
"This is the hospital." Twilight Huaijin said lightly.
Dusk's father had no choice but to give up, and stood by the window with Dusk Huaijin, his former majestic face full of decadence.
"If I hadn't said that, if I could have looked into it closely, it wouldn't have been like this." Father Twilight looked at the place where heaven and earth met.
Twilight Huaijin turned her head to look at the side of Twilight's father's face, after so many things, Twilight's father's beard had not been shaved for a few days, and it was even more decadent.
"Dad, there are no ifs in this world, this is what you taught me, and the same is true for you who taught me to do things, but we are just talking."
Twilight said.
Father Twilight covered his face with one hand and leaned against the wall, and the two of them stayed like this, silent, silent.
………
Twilight disappeared completely, and there was no news at all.
By the time Twilight had recovered almost, Twilight got into the car in a white coat.
"Young Master, where are you going?"
The driver asked.
Twilight Huaijin replied, "Chang'an Temple." ”
The journey was long and remote, and it took about two hours for Twilight Huaijin to arrive.
With expectation on his handsome face, he strode towards the temple.
He doesn't believe in Buddhism, but he has to believe that he hopes that his sister, Twilight Yuxi, can live a safe life.
Twilight Huaijin lit incense, bowed very reverently, knelt down in front of the Buddha statue, and begged Twilight to be safe.
After a long time, he still didn't get up, and at this time, a master in the temple passed by, looked at Du Huaijin, and then sighed with regret on his face.
Twilight Huaijin slowly opened his eyes, he followed the sigh and asked the master, "Excuse me, do you know something?" ”
The old master shook his head, waved his hand, and was about to leave.
Twilight Huaijin panicked, staggered to her feet, and blocked the master's way.
"Please tell me! That's important to me. ”
The old master shook his head and said to him, "You woke up too late, flowers bloom and fall sometimes, how can you not ask for a flower that has withered to bloom again." Hopefully, we'll see each other again. ”
After that, the old master left leisurely, leaving Du Huaijin alone in the same place.
He tugged at the corners of his dry mouth and smiled bitterly, which was more ugly than crying.
He thought, "Probably not... Not like that, right?
