Chapter 8 The Story About Watching the Sunrise

"Let's watch the sunrise." Tao Ming said.

So the two of them, a turtle and a cat, started to carry their backpacks and walked towards the "Hanging Admiralty" in the eastern suburbs.The shape of the upside-down fuchsia is an iron bell hanging upside down, which looks like a blooming flower from a distance.

Tao Ming's physical strength has not been very good, and the pace of Mr. Tortoise is the same. The stray cat is much faster. From time to time, he strays into the forest to see if there are snakes and mice.As for Shen Gu, he will always be like a shadow, silent and non-existent.

Climbing halfway up the mountain, Shen Gu condescendingly gasped for breath, and raised the flashlight: "It will not be in time for the sunrise."

Tao Ming hugged Mr. Turtle: "You can watch it here, too."

Shen Gu looked around, pointed to a big rock at the corner and said, "Go over there."

The two of them, a tortoise and a cat, sat on a boulder halfway up the mountain and waited for the sunrise.

The direction Shen Gu chose is not wrong, there is nothing in front of him that can block his line of sight, and when he raises his eyes, the whole city is in front of him.

In the rising red sun, in the warm morning glow, there are flying birds that can only see black shadows.The shadows of distant buildings overlapped, comforting the lonely each other.

This is a lonely city.

People are like neatly arranged buildings, always separated by such a distance, afraid of natural disasters, man-made disasters, and fear that the other party will endanger themselves when they fall-they can only stand alone and try to straighten their backs, as for the so-called Dreams or ideals to greet the new day.

Until it becomes a neat tombstone.

So at the moment of encountering "the same kind", I will reveal the things hidden in the deepest part of my heart-because I have thought about it too many times and want to confide in others for too long, so I almost blurted it out.

Therefore, for those who have their own attachments but have not lost hope, Tao Ming's ability is invalid.

That's why he's always met with so many sad stories.

Everyone Tao Ming has encountered—from old people to children, from cats to dogs, from big trees to small grasses—all fell into a kind of extreme loneliness.They may appear tough, but there's no hiding that "whoever, talk to me" desire.

Shen Gu was different.From the first time Shen Gu looked at him, Tao Ming knew that he was different.

At the moment they met, Tao Ming clearly felt that Shen Gu was also confused by the "similar illusion".However, he didn't show any emotional fluctuations, those black eyes seemed to gather the darkness of the whole night, and he couldn't see to the end.

It's like never being surprised by anything, or sad about anything—even if you meet a "similar" that many people desire or reject.

It was the first time that Tao Ming was so eager to share a person's darkness.

Because the feeling of dull pain in my heart is so familiar.

It was as if it had been rehearsed countless times during those nights of sitting wide-eyed under the street lamps waiting for dawn.

At this time, the sun slowly rose into the sky.

Shen Gu lay down on the boulder to sleep with his eyes closed.

Tao Ming quietly took out a registration form for the Junior Software Design Competition from his backpack, put it lightly on Shen Gu's chest, and then lay down to catch up on sleep.

Not long ago, Mr. Turtle told Tao Ming that Shen Gu's mother revealed the truth when she secretly cried.Shen Gu's father changed jobs later, and the job was more dangerous and busy. Every time he went on a mission, Shen Gu's mother was very worried.Over time, Shen Gu gradually alienated Shen Gu's father, and his personality became withdrawn.

That time when the family notified Shen Gu to go home, in order not to irritate him, the words were vague, so he didn't know what happened at that time.After he really understood, apart from being doubly kind to Shen Gu's mother, he became more silent.

That time, Shen Gu was preparing for this juvenile software design competition.At that time, he was silently engaged in a cold war with his father. He vowed to learn the best, get the most awards, and live a better life when his father didn't look at him and didn't love this family anymore.

When he accidentally heard the conversation of "It's so pitiful, the bullet went through the photo of the police officer and his son..." "I heard that his son is very good and is a top student", he missed what a precious thing.

The only days that could be left with good memories were used by him for resentment.

Sorry for the first time.

When Tao Ming woke up, Shen Gu was no longer on the boulder.

Tao Ming hugged Mr. Turtle: "Is he angry?"

Mr. Turtle glanced at him and said, "After you fell asleep, he sat up and tore the piece of paper to pieces after just a few glances. He was probably angry."

The stray cat reappeared at some point, holding a thin brown mouse in its paws.It raised its head and said, "You have done nothing wrong. You must come out to live a good life." Seeing that the brown mouse was struggling under its claws, it let it go, scratched and played for a while, and said, " You are too thin, go! I will take you to find food, and I will eat you when you get fatter."

The stray cat waved to Tao Ming, and took the brown mouse away.

"What a strange cat," said Mr. Tortoise.

Tao Ming picked up Mr. Turtle and walked down the mountain while asking, "Really?"

The tortoise didn't answer, but asked, "Is that the cat that wanted to be friends with the dog?"

"Yes."

"It probably wants to be friends with the mouse this time." Mr. Tortoise said again, "What a strange cat."

"It's not surprising." Tao Ming said, "You are also friends with the rabbit."

"I was stupid only once," said Mr. Turtle. "It was stupid again and again."

"But you only made one friend." Tao Ming said, "Hui Hui made one friend after another."

Mr. Tortoise stopped talking.

Tao Ming sent Mr. Turtle back to Shen Gu's house, but Shen Gu was not there.

Tao Ming was a little sad.

He sat alone in the park watching the pigeons busy looking for food.

The pigeons never talk to him because they are all happy.

Perhaps because of his extra careful observation, Tao Ming saw a single pigeon.It was pecking and nibbling at the twig of a rose flower over and over again.

Tao Ming squatted beside it and asked, "Do you eat roses?"

"No," said the dove, and it asked, "Have you seen the Happy Prince? That prince, who gave everything away, and has nothing left."

"what?"

"A friend of mine." The pigeon said: "He gave everything to others, and now he is lying on the hospital bed alone. He used to like to tell me stories... Although he couldn't see it, he didn't know that I was the same a pigeon."

"So you want to send him a rose."

"Yes."

Tao Ming helped the pigeons to break off the roses. The bright red petals were like blooming flames, giving people a feeling of infinite vitality.

"It's a pity he can't see it, otherwise he would be happier." Tao Ming said.

"He can smell it. Goodbye, thank you." The dove flew away with the rose in its mouth.

"Idiot." Shen Gu's voice descended from the sky again.

Tao Ming looked up and saw Shen Gu standing beside the rose bush holding a ticket.

Shen Gu continued: "Picking flowers randomly, the park ranger sent it to you, remember to pay the fine."

Tao Ming was both surprised and delighted: "Are you not angry anymore?"

Shen Gu said, "You seem to have forgotten that today is Monday."

"what?"

"I went back to school and asked for leave." Shen Gu said, "You can figure it out."

"How could it be like this!" Tao Ming was frustrated: "Sure enough, he is still angry..."

"You also participate."

"what?"

"You also participate." Shen Gu took out two registration forms from his schoolbag: "I'll go."

"I do not know……"

"I teach you."

"Then I'll go back and ask for leave!"

"Actually, I invited you."

Tao Ming was pleasantly surprised: "Are you really not angry?"

"Start memorizing classic programming sentences." Shen Gu said: "Memorize a hundred sentences on the first day, and gradually increase later."

"...As expected, I'm still angry."

Shen Gu left without looking back.

Tao Ming followed quickly: "Can you have a little less?"

"No."

"Just a little bit?"

"No."
