57

In the cafeteria, apart from the two of us, there were a few doctors who worked the night shift, and each of them sat far away. The ground had just been washed with water, like dozens of mirrors, reflecting the lights on the dome. The chirping of insects came in through the cracks in the windows and spread through the air, and it was the dead of night. The clouds in the sky chase the waning moon. I fetched food for Tao Yao. She lay on the table as if she had lost her soul.

"My eyes cry like peaches, and it won't look good if I cry again," I half-joking, half-comforting her.

"Why do you want to look good!" she replied to me as she leaned on the table.

"It's useless to look good, it's always useful to eat, let's eat something first." "I pushed the food in front of her.

"I don't want to eat, I'm not in the mood. She turned her head to the other side.

I waited for a while, and when I saw that Tao Yao still didn't want to move, I went to the cafeteria aunt to borrow a thermos box and put the food inside. put it into a plastic bag again, and then sat opposite Tao Yao, looking at her quietly.

Time passed slowly, the dark clouds swallowed the moon a few times, and the doctors who worked the night shift had left. Tao Yao suddenly asked me: "No, what do you say is love?"

I was overwhelmed by her sudden question.

"Love - love is probably ......." I have a lot of answers in my head, but if I think about the answers carefully, there are always some loopholes.

"Probably what?" asked Tao Yao.

"I can't think of it, or I think of a lot of answers that have been rejected by myself, such as...."

"For example?" she asked.

"For example, I think love is selfless giving, but I think selfless giving itself is not valid, even if the mother must have pinned hope on the child. ”

"So what?" she asked like a child.

"So love should also be a relationship of interest. ”

"It turns out that love is so utilitarian!" she sighed as if she understood a truth.

"Then you say that love is a relationship of interests, and it should be regardless of gender. She asked me excitedly.

"Theoretically, why do you ask this?"

"If love knows no gender, then there should be love between women and women. ”

"Ahh

"Then why can't women and women love each other? ”

"Maybe it's because of the times, it takes .....time to change," I can only reply.

Tao Yao lay on the table again in disappointment. Let's go back first, I say. She nodded, but listless.

When we reached the door, we were greeted by two men and a woman, and the woman walked in front, wearing an off-white trench coat. Looking at the age should be similar to us, combing the bangs, and the skin is thin and white like a shelled egg.

She didn't seem to be in a good mood and frowned. The second man followed behind, a bald head, sword eyebrows, as strong as an ox, and his eyes were bright.

A straw-haired, sleepless, hunched back, thin as dead wood, as if it would fall down at the slightest touch. Such a peculiar combination makes people inevitably feel strange, not like a family member who is full of sorrow.

I passed them and the girl suddenly turned her head.

"Wait a minute," she looked us up and down, "You're a student at White Hart Academy?"

"How do you know?" I said, looking at her very vigilantly.

She pointed and motioned for me to carry something on my chest. There were so many things I had to worry about that I forgot to take off my badge.

"Is there anything going on?" I asked her.

"It's nothing, just asking, I heard that the four major colleges are now assassinating each other very seriously. I didn't expect anyone to dare to wear a badge so blatantly. ”

After she finished speaking, she smiled softly as if sarcastically, and walked towards the cafeteria aunt.

"Who are they?" asked me.

"I don't know, let's go back first" I reflexively put my arms around Taoyao's emaciated shoulders and protected her in my arms.

Tao Yao took a bath, ate something, and lay down on the bed to rest. I took a stool and sat on the balcony. The wind is blowing in the forest, and the shadows of the trees are swaying. Suddenly, a dragon roar came from the depths of the dense forest, swaying into the clouds, and disappeared without a trace in an instant. I thought to myself, dragons probably have their sad moments.

The dragon's groans pulled me out of Taoyao's world. I suddenly became vigilant, assassinations were so frequent, Tao Yao would definitely be implicated because of my identity. I think I'll have to change the room for Tao Yao tomorrow so that no one knows where she lives, and things have to be done very secretively.
