In fact, Liu Muchen has always wondered if there is much difference between a person and a group of people? Perhaps for him, there is not much difference between the two.

In 2019, Liu Muchen graduated from high school, and when the results came out, he was still working in the summer vacation in the water world, with a score of 521, which was just over three points in Shaanxi Province. However, Liu Muchen felt very good about himself at that time, because with his level, being able to take this test was already an extraordinary performance. After a period of difficult volunteering, Liu Muchen was finally admitted to Chengdu Normal University.

In September, Liu Muchen picked up his black suitcase and got on the high-speed train to Chengdu accompanied by his parents.

The suitcase contained a few old clothes, a power bank, a data cable, and a bag of camphor wood bars bought from the Internet. This is all his belongings, he once naively thought that these things could be used for a long time, but the reality told him very clearly that this was just wishful thinking! Dianbao disappeared in the first week after coming to school, and there were not a few Zhangmutou and his roommates left, and none of his clothes were worn out and thrown away, basically they were all worn, and he disappeared mysteriously. He still remembers when he was packing up his things at the end of his senior year, and he found a data cable that he had lost in his freshman year under his bed.

After the first semester, all he had brought from the town was the black suitcase, which he kept on the small cabinet next to his bed, and he didn't use it much for four years.

High school classmates, when they were freshmen, would often chat and complain in the class group. But by the time I was a sophomore or a junior, there was basically no one talking in the group. The only connection between each other may be that when someone sends a message in the button space, the name of the person keeps flashing on the phone screen, and then a thought will flash through that person's mind for a split second - isn't that who and who? I remember that he seems to owe me a hundred dollars (scientific research has proven that if you have an interest relationship with a person, you will remember him more clearly). Then, they don't care where that person is now or how they're doing.

In fact, not to mention junior high school classmates, even classmates who have only graduated from college for a few years, Liu Muchen's memory of them has become more and more blurred. Life is originally a movie, everyone plays the leading role in their own movie, if they can't appear in the same scene and act in the same play, even the joys and sorrows will seem redundant and impossible to exist.

Liu Muchen still remembers one of his favorite things to do at that time, which was to ride a shared bicycle alone on weekends and walk through the streets of Wenjiang, with no destination or direction, just wandering around at will. Then wait until after dark, at the familiar shop at the back door of the school, eat a meal of capers with Ye Hua.

"Old things, old people, I don't know what the difference is between the two, maybe it's just a memory of the past. Old things are things, but I think maybe people are things too, or maybe people are not as good as things? After all, if it is a thing, if you take a little care, it can still be with you for a long time. But for people, whether it's friendship, family affection, or love, giving and getting can never be contrasted, right?"

Liu Muchen still remembers that when he told He Qingyi about this idea, she first frowned, then smiled lightly, and then said, "Well, it makes sense." This can be regarded as a kind of recognition, Liu Muchen thought to himself.

For Liu Muchen, meeting He Qingyu in Chengdu was really an unexpected thing.

I remember that when the first semester of his freshman year was about to end, Liu Muchen rode his bicycle around the streets as he usually did for countless weekends, and when it was almost evening, he didn't know where he was going, so he had to take the subway back to school.

When he sat down at Aoki Station, he had been sitting in his seat and bowing his head to play with his mobile phone, and suddenly received a message,

"Look up and look to your right. ”。

Then, he saw the figure who was wearing a light blue dress, even if he hadn't seen him for many years, he could still be recognized at a glance, He Qingyi.

Liu Muchen's physical development is relatively late, when he was in elementary school, he has always been a thin and short child, his physical disadvantages and stubbornness of character make him often bullied by the boys in the class, after countless times of resistance to no avail, Liu Muchen had to choose to swallow his anger, he often thinks, such a day, when is the end.

One afternoon, he was blocked by several boys in the class, pushing and shoving him. Among them, there is a fat man, named Xu Maguo, who is also the one who bullied Liu Muchen the most, and he was the child king of their class at that time. Xu Maguo stood at the front, facing Liu Muchen, and ordered him to take off his pants, saying that if he didn't take them off, he would lock Liu Muchen outside the dormitory tonight, and several boys next to him were laughing, waiting to see the joke of this unlucky ghost.

Xu Maguo saw that Liu Muchen didn't move for a long time, pushed him hard, pushed him onto the pyre, and scolded in his mouth, "Damn, you kid can't take it off." ”

"I don't take it off. ”

"Do you say it again?" Xu Maguo also tilted his head to the side, as if he didn't hear what Liu Muchen said clearly.

"I said I wouldn't take it off. Liu Muchen has long been accustomed to it, and when he is bullied, he does not resist, but just treats what others do to him calmly.

"Hey, come on, brother, let's help him. I don't know who said it, and several other people rushed up and began to tear Liu Muchen apart.

"Stop!" At this moment, an untimely voice came out, and it was a female voice that sounded a little weak.

But it was this voice that really stopped a few boys, because for boys, although they didn't know much about love and love at that age, they also knew that they had to keep some images in front of girls, so they ran away.

He Qingyu walked up to Liu Muchen, stretched out his hand to him, pulled him up from the pyre, looking at this poor boy like himself, He Qingyu frowned, and stopped talking in his mouth, and finally just said, "Does it hurt?"

"It's okay, I'm used to it. Liu Muchen patted the dust on his body, looked at this girl who was also thin and a little dark, and said with a smile.

Liu Muchen knew that this girl used the simplest way to retain the last bit of dignity he had at that age.

That year, the boy was twelve years old and the girl was thirteen.

There is no flower before the moon, and there is no vow, two precocious children, just like this, they naturally walked together. They go to the cafeteria to eat together, clean up the fallen leaves on the playground in the early morning, and endure the bullying and cold eyes of others together.

When He Qingyu was about to go to the county seat to go to junior high school, she proposed to Liu Muchen to break up, because she might fall in love with someone else there. So, Liu Muchen hugged her for the first time in the firewood room where they met, and kissed her lightly on the forehead. This is the most sincere way for a precocious boy at that age to express his emotions. Since then, the two have parted ways.

Time is light, Liu Muchen continued to stay in the town to study the sixth grade, while He Qingyi was in the first year of junior high school in the county seat.

The more lonely one person is, the more lonely the other may be.

When Liu Muchen was in his first year of junior high school, he also went to the only middle school in the county. But his life has not changed much from before, not better, not worse, just more calm, like a clear spring. It wasn't until He Qingyu walked into his world again that he threw a stone into that clear spring, causing ripples.

One day, Liu Muchen was reading a book in the classroom, and a boy in their class suddenly found him and told him that someone was looking for him outside, and there was an indescribable meaning in his eyes when he looked at him. Liu Muchen didn't think much about it, so he walked out of the door directly.

Then, he saw He Qingyu, who was sitting at the staircase on the first floor, and smiled softly at him when he saw him coming out of the classroom.

Liu Muchen walked over, without too many words, and said to each other with a clear heart.

"Long time no see. ”

"Long time no see. ”

"There's a girl in our class who likes you. This was the second sentence He Qingyi said to Liu Muchen that day.

"What?"

"This is the letter she asked me to give you. After speaking, he didn't care about Liu Muchen, who was stunned, and turned around and left directly.
