The Muskingum River glistened in the sun, and scattered beams of light rippled in the water.The water is sparkling, reminiscent of the crazy gold rush or cowboys many years ago.Surrounded by cornfields and orange tomatoes, a unique product in Ohio, the crops here and those rubber trees grow crazy endlessly, making people feel tired.

Max can see the lake and the railway through the glass window.Rural scenery, the clouds overlapped and were dyed orange by the sun.The whirring of freight trains and the screaming of birds seemed to be whispering in her ear, which kept her driving distracted.

Max followed the navigation to the southwest, and they were walking on the Cumberland National Highway.Not far from here is a town called Zanesville, which is an hour's drive away.It's actually only a day's time for them to cross Ohio from here at the current pace, but they've been stuck at the deli for so long that it's going to be dark soon, and it's not safe to drive at night.

In the backseat there was food Kate had prepared for them on the road, sandwiches and caviar, with some salami and vegetables.Barry would eat some now and then, but not because he was hungry, but as a snack.Max noticed early on that Barry loved the caviar thing as much as she loved the horn donuts and the rye beer.milk?What the hell, she doesn't wear diapers.

Barry picked up the thermos and poured himself coffee.Thick and sweet, the waiter put too much sugar.He drank a few sips and felt very comfortable, which allowed him to regain some strength.Both of them were silent on this part of the road, and Esther did have some influence on their itinerary.After thinking about it, Barry decided to break the silence.He didn't like the atmosphere, and neither did Max.

"There's always something going on in my head," Barry hesitated for a moment, not sure if he should start with this passage, perhaps too deliberately, "Lightning, explosion, night, and every It will appear at night, the woman who died in front of me, who is she? Who am I? Barry Allen - there are countless people with this name in the world. Max, have you ever thought about what can destroy a person? I I often think of this sentence when I wake up.”

"The answer is the unknown, Max. People fear the unknown." Barry looked at Max.His eyes are clear, and the corners of his mouth are raised slightly, Max knows that he is not smiling, this is just Barry's habitual expression, which often appears when he is thinking or upset.They didn't get along for a long time, and Barry was silent most of the time after he came here, which caused Max to always like to observe him, slowly develop the habit, and then knew all his little expressions well.

The dark brown hair had grown back a bit, boys' hair always grows fast, they should probably go to the barber later.Max noticed that Barry was staring at him all the time. His eyes were beautiful, a pretty mint green that was addictive, but that wasn't a reason to bother her driving.

"Afraid is a better word." Max tried to reply in her usual relaxed tone. "I thought you would want to keep silent, Barry. You are sometimes as shy as a virgin or a cowering lamb. That's not a good thing."

Max stopped after saying this, she didn't actually want to say it, maybe there are better adjectives to describe him.After Barry talked about his difficulties, she was supposed to help him with soft words, but Max wasn't consoling.She knew what was wrong with her.

"I'm sorry." Max was silent for a while, and then said solemnly, "I will find a way to find your lost memory and do my best."

Barry looked at her in surprise, as if he was puzzled by what Max said.But he figured it out quickly, and then he frowned and smiled lightly. This wasn't like the smile before, but a smile from the heart.Max felt that this smile had warmth, like the warm sun in winter, she suddenly appeared when she was shivering while standing in the ice and snow, and then she was enveloped all of a sudden, the warm and beautiful little sun.

It's like an ignorant girl who has never been in a relationship and has a boy she likes for the first time.Without any sexual color, the clean and transparent heart is beating because of his every word.You should see this kind and silly boy, he really makes Max blush.

It is rare for an old driver who is full of gossip to overturn his car because of a novice, Max complained to himself in his heart.

"What are you thinking? Max." Barry leaned closer to her. He never did this a few days ago. Max didn't answer him, so Barry had to continue, "My memory, this is not your problem .I should thank you for taking me in, shouldn’t I? I bought clothes for me, and we can go shopping together next time, provided you don’t steal my sundae, even though you paid for it.”

Barry joked that he was in a better mood now.The wind in the evening was not too cold, but he still closed the car windows because Max was shivering a little from the wind.The sky is no longer pure blue, the moon is hidden by dark clouds, and they are very close to their destination.

"It does sound so," Max saw the reflective road sign, and she brushed her hair, pretending to skip the topic, being picked up by a boy younger than herself must never be known to the second person, "except What else are those? Road signs, familiar names, or phone numbers."

"It's just that, something holds me back, whether it's movement... or whatever, I feel like I'm being held back." Barry pursed his lips, trying to frown but he didn't, he just took another sip of his coffee , and then replied softly, "Every time I recall that episode, it will be very painful. The woman fell in a pool of blood, and the infinite self-blame and helplessness surrounded me, as if to swallow me. I don't Know who that woman is, but I should know, I forget everything and should not forget her, that must be someone very important to me."

"Those memories always appear in my mind, the woman lying in a pool of blood, the sound of the police siren, the night, I can't catch them, or I don't want to catch them." Barry hesitated for a while, and then said, "Maybe it's cowardice. I want to escape subconsciously, and I don't want to really think about it. That won't be a good thing, Max."

"It's just your guess, Barry. There's nothing to escape from, and even if I don't want to admit it, I do miss the father I never met." Max said, "I don't like running away, it's not right, Barry. No matter what has happened to you before, you must know that there are many important people in your life. They may be waiting for you in the distance now, and they are always looking forward to your return. So - face those Things you don't want to face, get back your memory."

Barry nodded thoughtfully, he only listened to half of what Max said.He is an adult, he remembers all the common sense, but he has forgotten the previous life, those people, what those things were like.Maybe my former self occasionally thinks in the middle of the night, trying to forget those bad memories and want to start a new life, but no matter who it is, it can't be like this.

Who is he?

In fact, Barry never thought he would be a normal person.It's an intuition that can't be described in words, and he knows that he is suppressed, which prevents him from fully using his power, and this powerlessness makes Barry feel painful.

There is infinite energy in this body that wants to be released, who is he——

He couldn't tell himself the answer to this question.

"Don't worry, boy. Don't be so dazed, those girls won't like a chick like you." Max teased, but it was more like a relief, a kind of concern from acquaintances, "There is nothing to worry about , I have my sister here. Magic is in hand, I have it in the world, don’t I?”

"That's right," Barry rubbed his temples, lying on the passenger seat and trying to relax his body, he has been very nervous, maybe because of the current atmosphere and the things he encountered before, he couldn't help it Really go to rest.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" Barry asked casually looking at the rural scenery outside the window.In fact, he was a little nervous when he asked this question. He didn't understand why he was like this, but he felt that if Max's answer was not what he thought, then he would be very disappointed.

"Boyfriend? Huh." Max shrugged and replied indifferently, "What's the use of that, the life in front of me is a mess, who has time to fall in love. There are guns/friends, oh, surprise! Forgot Let me tell you, little boy, you are also one of the candidates."

Barry sat up quickly, and his body, which had finally relaxed, became tense again. His blushing face seemed a little at a loss. Although Max always said some pornographic jokes, it was obvious that he still couldn't fully adapt, and was very melancholy.Max whistles at him like a gangster who flirts with girls.What a funny reaction, just a boy, Max thought.

"Hey! Barry, if you have a good figure, why can't you let me enjoy it." She likes to joke with Barry, and she likes to see him embarrassed, very cute.Although she meant it sincerely, Barry is indeed her best friend with sex.

"Don't make fun of Max like this, I won't be used to it." Barry lowered his head slightly, looking at a loss.He told himself in his heart that he couldn't do this, he said something or did something, he had to act, everything was fine, anyway, don't do it.

Max looked at Barry like this amusedly, and then reached out to touch his hair, soft, just like the heart of this amnesiac boy.This is the little lamb she picked up, a boy as mysterious as a black hole.

This is her treasure.
