Chapter 4 Feel as free as the wind
The black cat thief slid into Su Yu's bedroom. The light was dark in the www.biquge.info bedroom, and it first went back and forth, sniffing it, licking it, and occasionally reaching out its paws to touch it. It didn't take long for it to stare at the bookcase on the floor above the bed, and when it looked at the box, it didn't find anything interesting, and then it turned around and looked up at the books on the small shelf, either textbooks or tutorial materials, which were boring. So it tiptoed to the bookcase, which was closed tightly, and it tried to stand upright to reach the doorknob, but it was always a little bit off. It had no choice but to bend down and sniff around the door.
Nothing.
The black cat stood motionless in the darkness with its head tilted, as if listening and thinking. Then it turned around and was about to go back to the other room, but it jumped back at the sound of footsteps, and swooped under the bed.
Su Yu didn't know that a thief sneaked in, and after entering the door, he habitually locked the door, and the laughter of his aunt's family of three was blocked out of the door. He touched the desk and turned on the lamp, which glowed yellowish, like a grain of light wrapped in darkness. It was only when he sat in the light that he felt at ease. So he is very devoted to reading, and the words in the book are like a clear stream flowing in his heart, and the clear stream is dancing with the melting sunshine, bringing him into a quiet and warm world.
This is the "cure". In fact, the story in the novel is not tortuous, and even a little loose and simple, but it is like soaking the cold heart in a hot spring and drying the damp emotions in the warm sun.
Maybe it's because of my own trauma?
Su Yu couldn't sleep, he held the book and read until one o'clock in the morning, until he finished reading the whole book, he rubbed his eyes and stood up, opened the locked door and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash, only to find that the light in the bathroom was on, and there was a weak humming sound from his cousin inside, as if he had eaten his stomach. He had to turn back, only to find that the hidden door had opened silently, and something seemed to be coming out of it. The thing was about to slip away, and when he saw Su Yu, he was also stunned, revealing a pair of green ghostly eyes.
Su Yu was taken aback. Usually there are no flies and mosquitoes in this house, how could such a guy jump out? Just as he was stunned, the little thing had already turned around and rushed into the living room like the wind.
Su Yu hurriedly pulled his slippers and chased after him, but he couldn't find it anymore when he looked left and right. I was surprised to feel a cool breeze blowing, but I turned around and saw a window in the living room open, reflecting the dim lights of the second half of the night in the city, the night rain was like clouds and fog, and the figure of a cat was carved on the window fence.
Su Yu was startled again, thinking to himself, why did the window open? Could it be that my aunt forgot to close it? What did this cat want to do? I was found so I wanted to jump out of the window and escape? As soon as he had a thought, he saw the cat turn its head and jump over, and suddenly disappeared into the window.
Su Yu once heard that cats are not afraid of jumping off buildings, and they often fall unscathed from several floors or even more than a dozen floors. He had been skeptical about it, and now it seems that it might be true. He walked quickly to the window, and looked downstairs against the cool breeze and cold rain, but unfortunately it was blurry outside, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but in the depths of the rainy night on the street downstairs, there was a slender figure slowly walking away, like a teenage girl.
It's a small city, and there are a lot of people who like nightlife, so it's not surprising that there are a few pedestrians on the street in the middle of the night. Su Yu thought it was strange that the cat was about the same size as the one he met in the coffee shop during the day, and it seemed to be all black, could it be the same one......? It's too fantastical. No matter how spiritual a cat is, it is unlikely that it will follow it all the way to its home. Not to mention whether cats can do it, what is the reason for doing so?
Su Yu was thinking crankily against the window, and as soon as the bathroom door opened, Zhu Yuzhe staggered out with his pants in one hand and his stomach in the other, and walked to the living room and saw a dark shadow standing in front of the window, so frightened that he shrank his neck and took two steps back, leaned against the wall and poked out, and found that it was Su Yu who came out with a sigh: "Let's just say that you have mental trauma, poke here in the middle of the night to think about life." Tell me if you have anything on your mind, and I will enlighten you!"
He originally wanted to walk over and give Su Yu a warm hug, but there was a sudden gurgling sound in his stomach, so he stretched out half of his hand and retracted it to cover his stomach, he bent down and lifted his pants, turned around and ran to the bathroom again: "No, no, no, my stomach is bad, I have to enlighten it first...... Hey Su Yu, if you block your nose and come to me, I can enlighten it and enlighten you at the same time, and you won't be delayed!"
............
The next day, Su Yu got up very early, washed his face hastily, and then ran to the living room window to look down. The road under the window was very damp, there was stagnant water shining in the low-lying areas facing the morning sun, people walked past the car, there was no shadow of a cat, whether it was a corpse or a bloodstain, there was no trace.
It seems that the little thing really didn't fall to its death, so it's okay, otherwise he would have indirectly strangled a small life.
This is a Sunday destined to be boring, Su Yu waited for the evening all day, read a book in the middle, made up for sleep, and was pulled by Zhu Yuzhe to watch him play games. It was easy to get dark, and after dinner, Su Yu picked up the schoolbag that he had packed up and walked out, Zhu Yuzhe blocked the way sideways, stared at him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to school for self-study. Su Yu was prepared, and threw the finished math paper into Zhu Yuzhe's arms, "I've finished writing this paper, you can take it and answer it correctly." ”
"You don't need the right answer, it's okay to check whether it's right or wrong. Zhu Yuzhe pursed his lips and put the volume away, "I won't accompany you, there is a Q&A activity arranged by the website in the evening, and there are two customers who make appointments, oops, it's really annoying." ”
Zhu Yuzhe went back to the house vigorously, without the slightest sense of being annoyed to death. Su Yu brought a bottle of water and went downstairs alone with his schoolbag.
The sky is high and the night is quiet, the stars are sparse and the moon is bright. Raise your face and take a deep breath, the world is alive and beautiful because of freedom. Su Yu ran like a pony and ran happily from the community to the school in one go. The doorman Zhang moved a stool and was guarding the school gate, checking the school cards of the students entering the school one by one. The evening self-study time is from 7 to 9 o'clock, and the school gate will be closed after 6:50 and will open again after 9 o'clock.
Su Yu panted and ran over to hand over the school card, the old man looked at the school card and then looked at Su Yu's face that was slightly red from running, and asked, "Day student, right?"
"Yes. Su Yu nodded, "Class 6 of the second year of high school." ”
"Do you have a key?"
Su Yu shook his head again. In order to facilitate management, the school's boarding students and day students are in separate classes, and day students rarely come to study in the evening, and some classes don't even have one, occasionally one or two, and they don't have a classroom key, so they can't enter the classroom door. Su Yu didn't have a key, he thought that if he couldn't do it, he would go to another class to get a seat, of course, if he could enter his own classroom, it would be the best.
Old man Zhang looked at his watch: "Go to the door of the classroom and wait, I'll open the door in five minutes." ”
"Okay! ”
Su Yu's heart was full of joy, like a little lark flying into the school gate, briskly walking through the garden path, looking up at the lights of the teaching building, but less than half of the classrooms were lit, and the remaining half was pitch black, and there was not a single student studying on his own. On the road, groups of boys and girls were walking into the building in the thick night, they were all classmates who lived in the school, Su Yu didn't know any of them, but there were exceptions, and suddenly a soft and glutinous voice came from behind: "Hi, Mr. Assistant!"
This voice and this title only belong to the fat girl Wu Xuanxuan. I only saw it in a coffee shop yesterday, and my impression is still very fresh. Su Yu turned around, and sure enough, he saw Wu Xuanxuan standing on the front steps of the building with a few books, the smile on her face swaying in the night breeze with the flower skirt, like a lotus leaf swaying lightly in the ripples. There was another girl next to her, but it wasn't Zhang Yao.
“...... Hey!" Su Yu drew a gourd in the same way and greeted shyly.
"How many classes are you coming from?" Wu Xuanxuan asked.
"Class 6 of the second year of high school. ”
"There was no one in Class 6, and it seemed like the lights were always dark. You can ask the doorman to open the door for you, or just come to our class, we have four or five empty seats. Wu Xuanxuan looked enthusiastic.
"Thanks. Uncle Zhang said that he was going to open the door, and I would wait for him for a while. ”
"Then you have your own classroom, don't be afraid that the school is haunted!"
Wu Xuanxuan said and laughed, and entered the teaching building with her female companion. From a distance, Su Yu also heard the conversation between the two people: "His name is Zhu Li?" "Uh-huh, assistant, Zhu Li......" "This name sounds weird." ”......
Su Yu then also entered the teaching building, went up to the second floor, and stood against the door in front of the classroom door, thinking that he would ask the class leader for the key tomorrow. At a glance, there were other students in the corridor who couldn't enter the classroom, each holding their schoolbags and gathering in front of their classrooms, but at least they were three or five groups, but Su Yu was the only one here. Su Yu felt that this was very good, and it was more comfortable to occupy a classroom alone. He opened the novel, read two pages by the light in the corridor, and heard the sound of jingling bells at the end of the corridor.
Old man Zhang walked upstairs with a long string of keys, and when he took a step, the keys shook and collided with each other to make a cheerful sound. He stopped every time he walked to the door of the classroom where the students were gathered, recognized the key to open the door, and then he flicked his steps to the next classroom with the sound of jingling bells.
Old man Zhang opened the door for Su Yu and advised: "Just yourself, just turn on a light and save some electricity." Then he turned to leave, and in the jingle of the bell, all I could hear was the words in his mouth: "I'll go back, I have to give advice to the principal, and the day students are just a little bit like you, and they are all left in one classroom." ”
Su Yu smiled and nodded yes, and when he saw the old man leave, he obediently did what the old man said, only turned on a chandelier in the middle of the classroom, and then closed the door and returned to sit under the lamp. Raising his head and looking around, he suddenly felt that the classroom was so big and empty. He was at the brightest place, and from him outward, the light diminished layer by layer, and disappeared layer by layer, until the blurred darkness was one by one, and it was impossible to tell what it was like. Outside the window is a blue night sky, with no impurities and no edges, making people mistakenly think that this classroom is also above the Nine Heavens.
It's quiet and comfortable, that's what Su Yu wants.
Then he opened the book and prepared to enjoy the best reading time, but just then, the classroom door was gently pushed open and creaked, and a girl poked through the crack in the door, and then walked in softly.
