The middle-aged woman kept on the phone, and she was a little worried about Situ An.

No matter how good Situ An is outside, she will always be a child in her heart, a child who will also be hurt, get into trouble, and make people worry.

"If he doesn't come back so late and doesn't answer the phone, has something happened to him?" The middle-aged woman seriously redialed the number again.

Gao Ming stood beside him, he knew that Situ An couldn't answer the phone, and he also knew that Situ An would not come back, because Situ An was in his heart at this time.

"He's definitely busy, let's wait for him while we eat." The middle-aged woman put down the microphone, and she went into the kitchen again to serve the meal.

The phone had hung up, but there seemed to be a ringtone coming out of Gao Ming's heart, and the voice was getting clearer and clearer, as if he was waiting for Situ An to answer.

The call went straight to the bottom of my heart, what would happen if Situ An really answered the call?

Takamei looked at the table with hot dishes, and the sunlight shone through the window, dividing the room equally.

The side where he was shadowed, and the other side of the table was even brighter.

"I always felt like the table wasn't like a place to eat." Staying in the shadows, Takamei turned to search the house, trying to find the discordant objects.

"Situ An's family can't be the only one, he personally created boundless killings, blood debts, so many innocent people were sacrificed and killed, and a happy family was shattered because of him, how could his home be kept warm? Why is there so much love? ”

"The blood stains may be hidden in a place where I can't see, and in the corners where the sun can't reach, there must be ugly and rotting corpses!"

The high-life shoes hit the closet, and there was a tattered cardboard box in the corner between the tawny cabinet and the wall.

The box is not large and contains a variety of toys.

Everything in the old house makes Gao Ming feel familiar, very in line with past memories, but the shape of the toys in this box is a little special.

Most of the toys are humanoid, ranging from small children holding metal game helmets to nurses wearing long-tailed nightcaps, cute big-headed dolls and big stars who can't sleep with dark eyes.

"Huh?"

The toy villain who was held in Gao Ming's hand seemed to have his eyes rolling, he reached out and touched the other party's eye sockets, the male star was very rough in workmanship, and he didn't even have eyelids, which made people feel uncomfortable to look at.

There are many similar toys, they don't look like they were bought from the market, they are more like old toys that other people don't want, collected by middle-aged women.

"Those were all played by Situ An when he was a child, I sorted them out, and I wanted to give them to the children in the courtyard, but Situ An disagreed, how old he is, and his personality is still the same as when he was a child." The middle-aged woman walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of rice: "Let's wait while eating." ”

Middle-aged women look out the window from time to time, the early summer sun is not dazzling, the window is full of greenery, and the time in the old apartment building seems to flow very slowly.

The food has been served, but those who should have come back have not returned, and those who should have sat down did not dare to sit down.

One is waiting for his son to come home, and the other is waiting for something to happen.

"Do you have children at home?" The middle-aged woman suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong?" Gao Ming turned around and found that the woman was holding a spoon and had brought out some of the stewed ribs and vegetables, and placed them on a separate plate, which seemed to have been reserved for Situ An.

"You've been looking at those toys, and I thought you were going to buy some for your own kids." The middle-aged woman covered the food for Situ An with a hood: "Let's eat first." ”

This is the second time that a woman has euphemistically let Gao Ming come close to the table and come over for dinner.

The scent brought back memories of the past, and Gao Ming's body involuntarily approached the table, he didn't perceive any danger, as if he had really returned to a noon many years ago.

As he got closer to the dining table, he vaguely heard someone calling his name, but the voice was quickly muffled by the ringing of the phone from the bottom of his heart.

Coming to the side of the dining table, Gao Ming seemed to be sitting in Situ An's position.

The middle-aged woman opposite him was also in a trance, muttering to herself, "This child is similar to my child." ”

The good meal is placed in front of Gao Ming, and the middle-aged woman has a very good personality, a kind heart, and never seems to have bad intentions.

"Situ An doesn't have many friends, that kid always works too hard, wants to be the first in everything, and doesn't know how to get along with others." The middle-aged woman sighed softly: "Other families hope that their children will study hard and get ahead in the future, but I hope that Situ An can stop working so hard and be safe and healthy." ”

Seeing that Gao Ming was looking at herself, the middle-aged woman pushed the stewed pork ribs to Gao Ming's side: "Eat vegetables, try Auntie's stewed pork ribs, Situ An used to like to eat the dishes I made the most, and praised me every day, so that I sometimes feel that I am really good at cooking." ”

Gao Ming picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of ribs and put it in the bowl, he didn't eat the meal on the table, but recalled the words that the middle-aged woman said inadvertently.

Situ An's favorite food to eat my cooking before?

She said this to show that Situ An didn't like to eat her food now, or that Situ An hadn't come back to eat her food for a long time.

Gao Ming grasped this small language loophole and instantly understood one thing.

The middle-aged woman was deceiving herself, she knew that Situ An would not come back!

Since he knew that Situ An would not come back, and the other party still warmly entertained him, it means that the other party wanted to let him stay and stay in this "home" forever.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

The knock on the door suddenly sounded, and Gao Ming put down his chopsticks: "Is Situ An back?" I'm going to open the door. ”

He trotted away from the table, and the middle-aged woman also stood up, looking at the door expectantly, she was looking forward to Situ An's coming home more than anyone else.

Grabbing the doorknob, Takamei opened the heavy door, the early summer wind blew into the house wrapped in warm sunlight, the long black hair slid down his cheeks, and the smell of rice in the air was washed away a little.

The skirt fell, the cicada seemed to disappear, the world became quiet, and the woman outside the door stood face to face with Gao Ming.

Looking at the other party's familiar cheeks, Gao Ming didn't expect that he would be here, seeing each other in such a way.

"Xuanwen?"

Gao Ming's voice was low, so low that only he could hear it.

Xuan Wen at the door was a little surprised, but she didn't seem to know Gao Ming at all, so she just took a step back out of politeness.

"Hello."

"Well, hello."

Gao Ming didn't say much, he nodded very cooperatively, as if this was the first time the two met.

The phone ringing in his heart was a little noisy, and Gao Ming made a way: "Do you want to enter this house too?" ”
