embrace the moon

Several children entered the hospital, and there were only two people left in the car.

Xiao Xiao was silent for a long time, Li Ke did not speak, and waited quietly for him to speak.

After a while, I heard him say: "Li Ke, do you remember when we first met, in Vladivostok, I fought over a little girl?"

There was a voice beside him, "Remember."

The lights in the hospital were still bright, and he watched the windows of the inpatient department go dark one by one, leaning back on his seat with his head thrown back.

Rao Xiao Xiao, who was always playing around all day long, suddenly calmed down at this moment.

There was cold wind blowing from the balcony outside the hospital, Gu Yu dragged someone out neatly.The two stood together on the balcony, looking at each other tensely.

The dim light made those eyes more indifferent and cruel, shining slyly like a fox.His face was blue and purple, and he looked this way without fear.

Gu Yu also stared at him frankly, only feeling angry, unable to vent his anger.Straight forward strode forward and pushed him, Qi Zirui staggered and was pushed against the wall.

"Yes, I checked you. I also know a lot about you. I may know you better than yourself," Gu Yu said in a low voice, "You clearly know that Jian Qiao has an important date today, and you deliberately I asked him out for dinner on the way, and I found a place where it was uneasy, so I just hoped that something would happen? Are you happy now?"

Yes, Gu Yu was right.At first, Qi Zirui really thought so.He didn't want Jianqiao to get this great opportunity, he hoped that he would miss the art exhibition, and that his career would be rough and unsatisfactory.But from beginning to end, he never wanted to hurt Jian Qiao at all.

With his back against the cold wall, Qi Zirui stared fixedly into his eyes, speechless.

Gu Yu knew what kind of psychology he was motivated by, selfish possessive desire, strong desire to win and lose, and distorted desire to protect.

Based on what Gu Yu knew, he could basically conclude that why Qi Zirui went to the deserted ward in the first place, and why the deserted ward was discovered by the public so quickly, was mostly because of him as a hindrance.He was just jealous, envious, and admiring in disguise.

"I'm the one Jian Qiao likes. You should be jealous of me, why don't you come after me?" Gu Yu's eyes were red, and the hand that was tightly clutching the front of his shirt was even left with a row of deep and shallow marks by the zipper.

"Nonsense!" Qi Zirui broke free from his grasp, as if in a daze, "Since I was a child, Jian Qiao has always been kind to me. What are you? What are you?!"

"If you have any more ideas about Jian Qiao, let him suffer even a little bit of harm," Gu Yu gritted his teeth angrily, "I will definitely repay you double."

There was a knock on the door in the quiet ward, and the people in the room answered.The door opened, and a figure walked in, reached out and turned on the light, illuminating the whole room.The bright light instantly made people squint their eyes, and when they saw clearly again, it was Xiao Xiao who sent them to the hospital in front of them.

Jian Qiao was sitting by the window, staring at him at this moment, and before he could speak, he only heard him ask: "Is it dealt with? Is it serious?"

"Okay, it's not serious," Jian Qiao replied. He didn't know why he came to him. He probably planned to send them back out of kindness. "Thank you, I'm sorry."

Xiao Xiao sat down on the edge of the bed, ignored any polite words, drove straight in and asked him, "Listen to Lu Xun, is your surname Jane?"

Jian Qiao nodded and responded again.Xiao Xiao stared absently at the plaster cast on his hand, and after a while stared at his face intently for a long time, carefully examining every part of his facial features.

I don't know why he was stared at by such scorching eyes, and Jian Qiao was so frightened.And because Gu Yu specially reminded him, knowing that he is a spy who goes through life and death every day, he was watched and kept silent.

After a long while, the two were silent for a long time, and Jian Qiao even planned to find an excuse to visit Gu Yu in order to escape the current predicament.The door was suddenly opened gently, and Jian Qiao looked up, but Xiao Xiao seemed not to have heard him, looking straight at him, and said with great difficulty, "Do you know a girl who looks very similar to you?" Like...especially the eyes. Her name is Yueyue."

When Jian Qiao heard this, there was a buzz in his head, and his heart sank suddenly.Gu Yu stood at the door, his eyes widened, and he closed the door behind him.The ward suddenly fell silent, as if a thin layer of frost had spread, and the bone-piercing cold made people feel frightened.

know?Of course we know each other.

Where is it just acquaintance, he has been looking for her for 15 years.

When Xiao Xiao saw the little girl for the first time, he was rescued from a trafficker during a business trip.At that time, she was covered in mud, her eyes were watery, and she looked at him timidly in the dilapidated dark room.

After saving her, she was sick for a long time and had a high fever for several days. When she woke up, she only remembered her name was Yueyue.Xiao Xiao felt sorry for her, and took her back to the south, where she was fostered in a children's welfare home according to the organization's regulations.

So Xiao Xiao often went to see her, until one summer, Yueyue was adopted by a couple who worked underground.Some time later, during a family outing, Yueyue disappeared mysteriously again.After verification, it was the opponents at work who made trouble for them and threatened them.

A few of them searched day and night, but there was no news.

Even when the couple had no choice but to give up, Xiao Xiao continued to investigate like crazy until he found overseas.When he arrived, he realized that the threat to his family failed, and Yueyue had already been sold on the black market.

Xiao Xiao and Li Ke met once in Vladivostok when they met not long ago.It was then that they attended Yueyue's funeral together.

……funeral.

Although she had been worried for a long time, worrying that she would encounter accidents day and night, why did she ever think that she would be involved in other people's complicated disputes?

...She must be very scared, right?

That bleak and airtight hut, those smoky trading places...

She must be... terrified, right?

Why not him?Why not himself...

"You are chasing after me, don't play tricks!"

"Brother, have you changed your teeth yet?"

"Wait for me, I'll buy you candy."

"Qiaoqiao don't cry, I won't cry when I fall down."

"younger brother!"

"younger brother."

"younger brother--"

"Qiaoqiao, welcome, you are my younger brother."

Jian Qiao's face became paler, her thin lips trembled slightly, but she couldn't say anything after all.

He was trembling with despair, feeling out of breath, bitingly cold, dizzy, and almost lost consciousness.Sitting weakly on the chair, curled up into a ball, buried his head in his knees, and covered his ears.

Xiao Xiao's eyes were already red, and he walked out of the door without a word.The door was closed again, Gu Yu stood motionless by the door, staring at his figure, clenched his fists tightly.

Gu Yu probably knew about this matter.

When Qi Zirui reminded him why he didn't check out one of Jianqiao's family members, he asked Lu Xun to help him check someone out, which was Jian Mingyue.

Since the information he knew was very limited, after comparing the time when he was lost and found, Lu Xun finally gave him dozens of girls' information.One of them was "Yueyue" who had been in an orphanage for a while.

Every other girl is alive and well, having a life of sorts.Whether it is depression or happiness, they all live their own lives.

Only this one died prematurely on the streets abroad.

After learning about these results, Gu Yuzeng frequently guessed which Yueyue belonged to Jianqiao.Is it the college student studying medicine, or the hairdresser who opened a small shop, or the waiter working in the bar...

He never thought that he was the only one who died.

It was only then that he recalled the blurry profile photo in the file, and at this moment, thinking about it, he and Jian Qiao had the same facial features carved out of a mold.

Gu Yu didn't want to tell Jian Qiao, and originally planned to spend time meeting every "Yue Yue" to make sure who Jian Qiao was looking for.Unexpectedly, the one that should really be seen has long since disappeared.

Only then did he realize that it was her that Jian Qiao called in his sleep, and that it was her that he wanted to see, tossing and turning, thinking about her, and looking for her in newspapers every day.

Looking at the thin figure curled up into a ball and trembling uncontrollably by the window, Gu Yu's heart ached like it was being tightly clenched.After all, he still failed to muster up the courage to walk over, open the door, and walk outside.

The door was ajar, revealing a bright light.After a long time, a suppressed sob came from inside.

Gu Yu's eyes were dull, his heart ached, and he squatted down exhausted.

The author has something to say: This girl was mentioned in the first episode of "Thirst".

Although the story adds drama, the lost people in the world are found in the hearts of countless people every day.

When I started writing this story, I had already thought about the ending of everyone.I often walk alone on the stone path at night, listening to the song "Waiting for Me" repeatedly, feeling sorry for Jianqiao who is looking forward to the missing family members day and night.

I don't care how many years I want to find you

no matter where you are in the world

You have to wait for me to push through the sea of ​​people

come to your side and never leave

let me run to you look at your face

How do I say how much I miss you

let me run to you and hold your face

Tears are all over my face yet

I just hope that everyone, no matter what the reason, will not be separated from their loved ones.

I also very much hope that the missing person notice in Jianqiao's deepest heart has never had anyone's name.
