After finishing the work, Lu Xi went back alone.

He walked out of the passenger ship station and was about to cross the road when he saw a familiar figure across the road through the traffic.

The young man put his hands in the pockets of his coat, looked at him timidly and flatteringly, showing a kind of embarrassment and anxiety like a fool.

Lu Xi stood in place and watched for a while.

Then, he gave a middle finger to the opposite side of the road expressionlessly.

Seeing this, the young man's eyes showed a smile, his back straightened slowly, his body was tall and straight, and in an instant, his whole aura was in full bloom.

He was just playing with Lu Xi like a prank.

Lu Xi and Xiao Qi went back by car together.

The bus is very dilapidated, and the last row can't even close the glass windows.

Xiao Qi humbly made a "please" gesture and said: "Brother, you go first."

Lu Xi: "..."

The inner seats are close to the windows, and whoever sits will block the air vents.

Lu Xi had no choice but to pull up the hood of the hoodie and put it on to block the wind.

The bus jolted into motion.

Xiao Qi was more straightforward, after he sat down, he said: "You know too much, I have to find a way to make sure you won't tell others." At the end, he added, "You can't even tell your family."

Lu Xi understood what Xiao Qi meant, but he was not a talkative person, Xiao Qi was completely overwhelmed.

But Lu Xi thought about it, this senior tenth senior has not graduated from Canglan Private Middle School for ten years, so he should know the inside story of many campus legends.

Lu Xi just wanted to prove something.

"I won't tell." Lu Xi agreed first, but then said, "But I want to know the truth."

Xiao Qi looked at Lu Xi and said bluntly, "What's the truth?"

"Is Yoko's ghost really in the abandoned school building?"

Unexpectedly, when Lu Xi opened his mouth, Xiao Qi was immediately amused.

Xiao Qi secretly laughed for a while, then asked: "What do you think?"

Because Xiao Qi is a senior figure in the school, once he said that, Lu Xi completely dispelled his doubts.

Lu Xi said, "Are you the first to find her body?"

Hearing this, the smile in Xiao Qi's eyes faded, he slid down a little, raised his leg, put his knee against the back of the chair in front, and nodded silently.

"Why did Yoko hang himself?" Lu Xi had been puzzled for a long time, and said, "Is it because of a decline in grades?"

Xiao Qi turned his face to look at Lu Xi, and said the same thing: "What do you think?"

Seeing that Xiao Qi didn't seem to want to talk about it, Lu Xi had no choice but to give up, and didn't ask any more questions.

The car was driving on the muddy road, and the wind blowing in from the window carried the smell of sea water.

The two sitting in the same row fell silent.

After a while, Xiao Qi suddenly said in a low voice: "Because of freedom."

Lu Xi was puzzled for a moment, and looked at Xiao Qi blankly.

Xiao Qi raked back his messy forehead hair, looked back at Lu Xi, his eyes were cloudy, and said with a smile: "Didn't you ask why Yoko committed suicide?"

Because of freedom.

……

Xiao Qi recalled what happened seven years ago, it felt very far away.

"She is a very hardworking girl, and she is strong in all aspects." Xiao Qi said, "Every time I take an exam, she is first and I am second. This balance has always been maintained. Although we are in the same class and we know each other's level, but The weird thing is, until the third year of high school, we didn't have a few words."

"However, in the second semester of the third year of high school, she made a mistake in the first monthly exam... It can't be said that she made a mistake. It's just two wrong questions on the answer sheet..."

Lu Xi contacted the rumors he had heard before, understood it, and said: "That time she got second in the exam, and you were first?"

Xiao Qi shook his head and said with a smile: "That's the second semester of the third year of high school... From everyone's point of view, I went crazy in the last semester, and I will go back to the exam and count down without any pressure."

"Pretend to be crazy?" Lu Xi thought for a while, and said, "Did you really stay in the Internet Rehabilitation Center for three months?"

Xiao Qi let out a "hmm".

Lu Xi waited for Xiao Qi to continue talking.

"After that monthly exam, Yoko said that the world she saw had changed..." Xiao Qi's voice gradually lowered, full of nostalgia for that girl.

***

That night when the self-study get out of class was over, Xiao Qi lingered until the last one as usual, and then procrastinatedly packed his schoolbag.

As a result, while he was packing up, a girl quietly walked to his desk.

Xiao Qi looked up dully.

The girl Qi Liuhai, with bob hair, is looking at him with bright eyes:

"Hey, Xiao Qi, how does it feel to be a fool?"

Xiao Qi: "..."

The girl is Yoko.

She sat in the front seat of Xiao Qi, smiling shyly: "I'm sorry, I lied, I have something to do today, so my mother will pick me up later, can you stay with me for a while? It's scary at night by myself."

Xiao Qi still had a dazed expression on his face, as if he didn't listen, but he stopped packing his schoolbag.

"Are you on the bottom of the exam again this time?" Yoko said, propping his cheek with one hand, "Your parents shouldn't blame you, right? After all, you are stupid. How can everyone ask for a fool?"

"..." Xiao Qi remained speechless in his heart, but his face still showed a bewildered expression.

"I envy you... If I was stupid too, they wouldn't blame me." Yoko sighed and said, "But I'm not stupid, and I don't know how to act."

Afterwards, Yoko treated Xiao Qi as a tree hole, and poured out his inner thoughts:

"Did you know? For a whole week, when my mother sent me to school every day, she asked me to reflect on the way, asking me why I didn't get the first place in the exam, and asked me to reflect on it when I got home, and asked me to think about it. Is my mind slack? ...It's scary. I'm not a prisoner, but I missed the first place in the exam by two points. Why do you interrogate me every day? And the teachers also look at me, very nervous, as if they are always afraid that I have done something that should not be done. What I did... But, I just didn't take the first place in the exam, is it an unforgivable sin..."

"It's funny to say, if it weren't for the wrong answer sheet this time, I didn't know that my parents would treat me like this..."

"In the past, they called me a good girl. When I was studying, they always told me to combine work and rest, relax, and not to be stressed... But after taking the No.2 exam this time... Yesterday I just sat on the sofa thinking After thinking about it for a while, my mother saw it and screamed and got angry at me, saying that the model test is about to take place and there is no time, so she must hurry up and study, and also said that if she fails in the test next time, she will be so angry... ok exaggerate……"

"My dad pushed back this week's family dinner with his business partner, saying that he wanted me to concentrate on my studies, and said that this time the child of the business partner's family did well in the exam. Now that I have passed the exam like this, he can't do it... ... But in the past, he often said in front of his uncles and aunts that I was his pride..."

While talking, Yoko slid onto the table wearily, leaning on his arm, and said, "Why did it become like this?"

"Am I worthy of being their daughter only by being the first in the exam? Is it worthy of their love only by becoming what they think? Am I a tool? Am I an accessory they use to add luster to their faces? Okay." Strange... I suddenly discovered recently that my parents seem to have never understood me, and I have never understood them... After all, since I was a child, I can study and take exams, and they are always pleasant to me... Our topic, There will always be only exams and studies.”

"I worked so hard, to get all the firsts, to please them, but they never asked me if I was tired, and never cared about what I wanted...I made a mistake once, and they felt angry and distrusted, rushed Am I venting my dissatisfaction... because I took away their glory?"

"Who the hell am I... What is the meaning of studying so hard... I always feel that I have been living for my parents, and there is no freedom at all..."

The girl's voice became lower and lower, full of confusion.

During the whole process, Xiao Qi just listened without saying a word.

Finally, before leaving that day, Yoko showed a smile and told Xiao Qi a decision:

"During the period between the mock exam and the mock exam, I have to think about what kind of person I am. I also want to see... Do my parents love me, or do they only love my image of a top student?"

In the days that followed, everyone saw Yoko studying hard.

Girls always arrive in class before six o'clock in the morning and leave at ten o'clock in the evening. Even lunch is settled with a piece of bread.

But only Xiao Qi knows that Yoko is completely letting go of himself.

Leaving early and returning late is to avoid nagging from parents. I only eat bread at noon to save time and play two more games of Fighting the Landlord. Even in class, I keep novels under my textbooks.

During that time, Yoko and Xiao Qi's contact became more and more frequent.

But most of the time, girls are talking and boys are listening.

"I read a myth last night about the thorn bird, also known as the footless bird." Yoko said with a smile, "That kind of bird is very willful and free, and only when it dies will it fall to the ground and bid farewell to the sky. "

Xiao Qi will always remember the longing look on the girl's face when she looked up at the sky.

On the day when the city's model test scores were awarded, Yoko fell below everyone's spectacles and fell to the twentieth grade.

That night after self-study and school, Yoko shook her phone towards Xiao Qi, and said with a wry smile: "My mother knows the grades, and she just sent a text message to say that I let them down very much."

At that time Xiao Qi was still obsessed with pretending to be a fool, and failed to comfort her.

Before Yoko walked out of the classroom, looking at the dark night sky outside, she took a deep breath and sighed, "I want to never land..."

After school that day, Xiao Qi was almost home, but he always felt that something was wrong.

He thought of the way the girl said the last sentence, and the more he thought about it, the more flustered he became, so he hurried back to school.

Xiao went up to the fourth floor, came to class one of three years, and saw the girl hanging outside the window sill.

For freedom, never land.

***

In the wind blowing in from the window, Lu Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw Xiao Qi's hair was blown messy, covering his eyes a little.

After a long time, Lu Xi said: "Yangzi's ghost stays in Class Three, is it the rumor you spread?"

Xiao Qi smiled and said: "Yes."

Lu Xi: "Why?"

"To commemorate her in my way..." Xiao Qi brushed off the creases on his trousers, and said, "She shouldn't be forgotten. Ten years, 20 years, Cang Lan is there, and Yoko is there, reminding the students, Teachers, parents, what is the meaning of education?"

Lu Xi understands that for so many years, the campus legend about Yoko has been enduring, and it is the reason why Xiao Qi is fueling the flames behind the scenes, spreading the rumors by pretending to be crazy and making specious remarks.

Lu Xi thought for a while, and said, "Are you pretending to be crazy to get revenge on your parents?"

He still remembers that because Xiao Qi was obsessed with games and his grades were stable, his parents forcibly sent him to quit Internet addiction.

Xiao Qi turned his face and looked at Lu Xi. His complexion was usually pale. He smiled slightly mockingly: "At that time, I was held down and couldn't move. When the electric current hit my temple again and again, I wondered if they wanted to Am I crazy? So I'm crazy to show them."

Lu Xi was silent for a while.

Heart said ruthlessly.

One outfit is eight years.

"Think about the entertainment industry." Lu Xi suggested conscientiously.

Xiao Qi was overjoyed.

Lu Xi asked again: "Do you want to continue like this?"

Xiao Qi was silent for a while, and said: "I will return my son to them after they learn how to be parents."

Lu Xi felt a little sad in her heart.

***

After returning to the residence, Lu Xi went directly into the room.

The room was dark with the curtains drawn.

Lu Xi got on the bed as quietly as possible, and lay down quietly facing Ji Nian's back.

Because he didn't want to disturb Ji Nian, there was a gap between Lu Xi and him.

But after a while, Ji Nian turned over and burrowed into Lu Xi's arms.

Lu Xi: "..."

He is about 1.8 meters tall, but he still insists on squeezing in front of him.

"It's alright..." Lu Xi was almost squeezed out, so she had no choice but to hug Ji Nian.

Ji Nian settled down, and his breath was full of Lu Xi's breath.

"I'm sorry..." Ji Nian said hoarsely, "I'm very useless..."

Looking at the plaster wall, Lu Xi blinked slowly, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.

Ji Nian will suddenly have a depression attack because he was stimulated because he couldn't find anyone last night.

Ji Nian always felt that he put himself in danger, so he always apologized over and over again.

Lu Xi rubbed Ji Nian's hair, and said patiently: "It's okay, I don't blame you."

Ji Nian is extremely insecure now, he choked up and said: "Do you hate me?"

Lu Xi: "No."

"Will you leave me..."

"will not."

Ji Nian: "No, you will, I am so annoying."

Lu Xi: "..."

Daringly, he just said it in vain.

Lu Xi picked Ji Nian's jaw and asked him to lift his face.

Ji Nian's eyes are red, and his beautiful face looks depressed, disturbed, and extremely fragile. His eyes seem to be covered with a layer of cellophane, a little gray, but when he looks at himself, he will reveal undisguised desire and dependence .

Lu Xi never thought that she would feel affection for a man.

Lu Xi supported his head with one hand, lowered his long and narrow eyelashes, pressed his fingertips on his lips, and said, "Will it be easier if you make it up to me?"

Chronicle nods.

"What can you make up for?" Lu Xi said, "I'm easy to talk."

Otherwise, he was worried that Ji Nian would be trapped in emotions and would not be able to get out.

With red eyes, Ji Nian said seriously, "What do you want?"

"casual."

Ji Nian was emotionally unstable. After thinking for a long time, tears gradually gathered in his eyes. As if he was suffering, he became more and more depressed and said: "But I have nothing..."

"...Why?" Lu Xi didn't expect the effect to be counterproductive, and quickly stroked the corners of Ji Nian's eyes, saying, "You are rich."

Ji Nian sobbed, and said, "But those are not precious things, they are not worthy of brother."

Lu Xi: "..."

No.

So worthy.

Now Lu Xi can only follow the calendar, and enlightened: "Think about it again, if you have something precious, give it to me."

Ji Nian thought about it for a moment, then lowered his head and unbuttoned his clothes. While weeping, I said pitifully, "Brother, I am the most precious... I will give myself to you, and I will fuck you..."

"........."

Lu Xi immediately pressed Ji Nian's hand, feeling a little indigestion, and after a long time, said: "No need, duck, no need, duck."

Although the calendar is very tempting, Lu Xi doesn't want to take advantage of others.

***

With Lu Xi's company, this year's calendar quickly came out of the depression period.

The next day, everyone packed up their things and prepared to leave the island.
