always

Back at Xia's house, it was already dark.The family doctor took out the bullet for Xia Jiafeng and bandaged the wound.Lin Yu has been silently accompanying him by his side like this.

He fell asleep, the doctor closed the door when he left, and the warm yellow light from the bedside lamp hit Xia Jiafeng's side face softly from the side.This is the first time Lin Yu walked into his room.

The room is very simple, with a big bed, a wardrobe, and a lamp.There is no table or bench, which is in stark contrast to the extravagance and lust of his villa living room.After all, his living room looked like it would have had gold walls.But in this bedroom, even the floor is ordinary wooden floor.

Lin Yu stood up and wanted to find a piece of clothing in the closet and spend the night on the floor, but the moment he opened the closet, he was stunned by the things in the closet.

There is a distant place in the closet, and this closet is a disguised mirror.This mirror shines in this gloomy environment.

In this mirror is the emperor's feet, the imperial city is thousands of miles away, and the galaxy is brilliant.

Xia Jiafeng was woken up when he opened the closet.These years of experience made him never sleep deeply, and he was somewhat on guard at all times.

Lin Yu's mind was captured by this great river and mountain, and he didn't notice the approach of the people behind him for a moment.Until, he was embraced by the people behind him.

Xia Jiafeng hugs Lin Yu from behind.Lin Yu has been too tired these years, and no one has ever asked him to lean on him.This hug was a little warm, and he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't push it away.Xia Jiafeng hugged this person as he wished, but he didn't react for a while, and the two just hugged under the dim light.For a moment, an ambiguous atmosphere flowed between them.Lin Yu stared blankly at the hands wrapped around his shoulders, tilted his head slightly, and saw Xia Jiafeng's eyes.Xia Jiafeng is a little short-sighted, not wearing glasses made his eyes look a little out of focus, and his brown pupils are full of tenderness, like a big bear hugging a treasure.

Lin Yu suddenly became shy. As soon as he struggled, he broke free from this warm embrace.Xia Jiafeng was pulled to the wound, but he just endured it silently without saying a word.He was just in front of Lin Yu.He stretched out a hand and turned the mirror slightly.After the mirror turned away, a long tunnel appeared behind it. "Go straight down and you can get out of this community."

Lin Yu looked at him straight, Xia Jiafeng just closed the wardrobe door, then walked alone to the French window that was completely covered by curtains, and opened the curtains with a swish.

Quiet and noisy are divided into two worlds by a long wall.The neighborhood was unbearably quiet, with a few lights dimly flickering among the green plants, and the swimming pool was quiet without any ripples.But the outside world is the climax of the nightlife, young men and women singing about wealth and youth, and spilling wine everywhere.

"Lin Yu, this world has never been fair. You have a good way of life, why bother to be an unknown corpse in Beijing?"

"Mr. Xia." Just as Lin Yu said two words, he was interrupted by Xia Jiafeng. "I'm just a little older than you, don't call me Boss Xia, call me Brother Xia."

Lin Yu leaned against the foot of the bed and sat down facing the wall that almost occupied the entire floor-to-ceiling window. "Brother Xia, I can't stand it."

In this cold and strange city, Lin Yu told people about his past for the first time.

"That was ten years ago.

I was 15 years old and my brother was five years old.I am a freshman in the best high school in the city.My father digs coal underground, and my mother cooks for the people in the mine.It's not a good day, but it's okay.When I go home on weekends, my parents and younger brother will chat with me with a smile.My mother always told me, let me study hard and be admitted to college. "Lin Yu looked at the streamer outside the window, and his smile was a little illusory, like fireflies flying in the water, everything was looming." That's when I think the world is the most gentle and the future is the most hopeful. "

"It was winter. When it was almost Chinese New Year, I was taking a final exam in the classroom. The teacher walked in suddenly and gave me a call. It was from the village. The village chief said something happened to my parents and asked me to go back. I didn't Knowing how I got back, I just felt that the sky was trampled on. The coal mine owner came and gave me [-], and said that a life was [-]. He said that the coal mine suddenly stepped on. It was God who didn’t give me food, it was my father Mom's life is over, no one can blame her.

But when I saw my parents, they were just lying on the ground, their faces and bodies were all black.In fact, I knew at that time that they didn't die from the mine collapse at all, but someone killed them. "After many years, Lin Yu was still a little emotional when he brought up the past again. He raised his head and rubbed his face. Xia Jiafeng sat beside him at some point and listened quietly to him .

"At that time, I saw a small knife on the village chief's table. I wanted to stab the boss to death and pay my parents' life. But my younger brother wandered in through the door. He was five years old at the time, and it was almost Chinese New Year. , he also put on new clothes, and his face was blushing brightly. I suddenly lost the courage to take the knife. If I am gone, who will take care of my brother?

I took the 6 yuan, lived frugally, and took care of my younger brother to go to elementary school in the village.I originally thought that after I passed the college entrance examination, I would start a work-study program and send my younger brother to study in the city.Three years have passed and everything is going well.I thought our family's bad luck was finally over, but, I was wrong.Life has never let me go.

It happened during the winter vacation of the third year of high school.That winter, I stayed at school to prepare for the college entrance examination.I left a letter to my aunt in the village asking her to take care of my brother.But that aunt left my brother in the house without paying attention to him after bringing him meals. How could an eight-year-old child live in that small room every day.It just so happened that many outsiders came to the village that winter.When I came home in March, there was nothing left in the house.The last one was gone.I looked for my brother everywhere with a knife, and the aunt knelt on the ground and said she was sorry for not taking good care of my brother.But my brother, how could he only be worth a word of sorry?

Later, the aunt's husband's family also came out.My aunt also changed the subject, saying that this matter has nothing to do with her, only those outsiders can be blamed.

I took out all the money and wanted to find my brother.I took my brother's photo and searched village by village.This is my last relative.In April, someone finally said they had seen my brother.I kept looking for this news, but when the news reached Beijing, it was cut off.Beijing is too big.

In June, I went back to school to take the college entrance examination.I knew that this was the only way I could find my brother.I passed the exam in Beijing, and for seven years, I have been looking for him, looking for my younger brother. "Lin Yu's emotions suddenly collapsed. Tears finally couldn't hold back, and they rushed out crazily. Tears dripped down his chin. A hand stretched out from the side to catch his tears.

Lin Yu grabbed that hand, crying uncontrollably. "I'm actually very scared, I'm very afraid of the ending I guessed. When I saw those children being taken to that club, I thought of my younger brother. My younger brother was kidnapped to Beijing, and I dare not think about what he went through. I dare not even think about whether he is still alive." Xia Jiafeng covered Lin Yu's eyes, and Lin Yu finally vomited the pain that had been stagnant in his heart for seven years, and the terrible guesses that had been circling in his mind for seven years. It is very difficult to breathe.

He held that hand tightly, as if he had finally caught a piece of floating wood in the vast ocean. "I'm afraid that my brother is dead, and I'm also afraid that he is alive in that kind of place. I'm afraid that when I see him, he will ask me: "Brother, why did you come here?" "I can't answer him. If I knew, I would definitely spend that Spring Festival with him. I don't know, whether I can still see him, buy him a popsicle, make him a dumpling filled with pork and cabbage, etc. Put meat and less vegetables." Lin Yu didn't know what he was talking about, his whole mind was his eight-year-old brother, those fleshy hands, those eyes with stars in them .

Hands moved away from his eyes.The owner of those hands picked him up and put him on the bed, then he grabbed the quilt with both hands and raised it, separating the two worlds.

He hugged the bloody young man inside through the quilt, and said, "Don't worry, no one will know inside, and no one will hear what you say."

you will be safe.
