Before going to that place, Leisurely asked Wei Qian to come over and take care of Li Zeyan, and went out for a walk by herself.Li Zeyan's birthday is still more than three months away, but now he really wants to buy him a gift.Leisurely looking at the dazzling array of small things in each small shop, she unknowingly walked around the alleys of Jiuxi Ancient Street.

"Monster, monster..." A child's voice came from a corner not far away.

"Why did you hit me!" A child shouted indistinctly, "I don't want to do this either!"

"No matter, you freak, stop following us!"

Walking over leisurely, she saw three boys surrounding a boy who had slumped in a corner, and one of them grabbed his collar and punched him in the face.Leisurely couldn't see it, she stepped forward and directly grabbed the boy's hand.

"Who are you?" The boy flicked hard and broke away from Youran.The two boys next to him also turned around and surrounded Youran, their faces were full of viciousness, showing no sign of fear at all.

"Why did you bully him?"

"He's not human! He's a monster!" A boy rushed over, grabbed the boy's hair and pulled him up, roughly turning him over.The child was in so much pain that he could only cry and beg for mercy, "Don't! Don't!"

The other child couldn't help but stretched out his hand and lifted up the child's blouse. On the child's shoulder blades were two bloody wounds.

"Let him go!" Youran pushed the two boys away and stood in front of the boy. "Did they cut you when you were hurt?"

"Sister, which eye of yours saw us touch him? Let me tell you, he is going to show his original form. He secretly cut off some strange thing in the toilet, and we discovered it!" The boy who took the lead Stepping forward, looking up at Youran, "I advise you to mind your own business, because he is actually a monster—" The last two words of monster were exaggeratedly protracted, making it extraordinarily harsh.

The child behind Youran whimpered and cried, holding on to Youran's clothes, but did not argue.

"If you don't leave, I will call the police!" You Ran threatened, her hands still firmly protecting the child behind her.The three boys confronted her for a while, but also felt that it was boring, and left after cursing a few words, and finally pointed at the child and shouted: "Be careful with us, you will feel better when you go back to school tomorrow! Freak!"

Leisurely hugged the crying child in distress.The child was thin and small, and he looked about seven or eight years old. The school uniform shirt on his back was stained with blood, which was barely covered by a dark coat.

"Don't be afraid, sister will take you to the hospital, and then ask your parents to pick you up. Don't worry, you can report to the school, if it's a big deal, transfer to another school, and they won't bully you anymore..." Youran comforted the child eagerly.

"No... that thing will grow again... I'm really a monster..." the child whimpered.

"What?" Youran didn't understand the child's words at all. "It's wings." A deep and gentle male voice came from behind, and he looked back leisurely. He was a tall man with a dark gray coat and a white high collar. His eyes were fixed on him, but the color of his eyes was light.

"wing?"

"He is also an evoler."

Leisurely looked at the child again, thinking about the wound on his back, and finally understood... "Why are you so stupid?"

"He wants to change himself to adapt to this world, but the world only responds to him with ridicule and bullying. He can be a strong man, but he chooses to participate in the game of the weak and abide by the rules made by the weak. QUEEN, how do you What do you want? To change yourself, or...to change the world?"

The man's words were like a thunderclap in the long night.Looking back leisurely, he was nowhere to be seen.

Because the child insisted not to go to the hospital, You Ran bought some simple anti-inflammatory drugs and planned to send him home for further treatment.During the conversation, she knew that the child's name was Xiaojie, and there were only her and her grandfather in the family.The two grandparents live at the foot of Jiuxi Mountain. Grandpa can do some traditional handicrafts. Every weekend, he will take the small objects he made to Jiuxi Ancient Street to sell. The money he earns is used for the two of them.

Entering this so-called home, You Ran can't help but sigh.The place where the two grandparents live is just a small four-meter-square bungalow. On the left side of the door is a simple bed. On the right side, there are some tools and some semi-finished utensils piled up on the floor. It takes up more than half of my room. There is a small table in the corner. , is a small stove connected to a liquefied gas bottle, and the wall has been blackened by smoke.Because the house is low and blocked by big trees, the whole space exudes a damp smell.

Leisurely pushed aside the quilt on the bed, let Xiaojie sit, and then unbuttoned the shirt.But seeing that he was just sitting there, unwilling to do anything for a long time, he thought he was shy, took a quilt to cover him, and said to him: "I can stop the bleeding and disinfect you if you take off your clothes first. I know you You may feel embarrassed, but wait until your grandfather comes back to apply the medicine, I am afraid the wound will be infected. If you insist, I will go and see if I can ask a male passer-by to help me."

"No..." Xiaojie held You Ran back, "Aren't you afraid? I'm so strange..."

Leisurely heard his worries, and couldn't help feeling sad again, she held his shoulder and said, "If I tell you, my sister is also like you?"

Xiaojie's eyes were wide open, as if looking at Youran in disbelief, "How did you hide that thing?"

"My sister is luckier than you. My ability is not exposed. But remember, you are not a monster, you are just different. There is a word to describe those of us who are different from ordinary people, called evoler."

"Evoler?" Xiaojie imitated and said it leisurely, but still frowned, "Sister, have you ever been bullied?"

The smile on Youran's face froze, and those terrible memories flooded back in his heart instantly, "Well, there were too."

"Then how did you survive?" Xiaojie's face was full of anticipation, "I feel scared every day, I don't know how long I can endure like this..."

With tears in your eyes, You Ran stretched out her arms to hug the skinny child: "Elder sister doesn't know how she survived. Thinking about it now, maybe it's because fate arranged for me to do something."

"Oh..." Xiaojie was a little disappointed, nodded with a half-understanding, and slowly unbuttoned his body.Those two bowl-sized bloody wounds were still shocking.Leisurely put the disinfecting potion on it gently, and heard the hissing sound of the child desperately holding back.

Xiaojie's grandfather came back after Youran bandaged the child up. Youran only said that Xiaojie tripped and scratched his face on the road, so he sent him back, and didn't mention the wound on his back.The old man was very grateful, and must let Youran choose one of the things she made as a thank you gift.You Ran felt that it was not easy to retreat, so she carefully looked at the large box of small metal objects that the old man took out.

Those small objects are all made of brass, including old-fashioned pipes, snuff boxes, women's small mirrors with lids, toy rickshaws, etc., all of which are exquisitely made.Suddenly, leisurely eyes were attracted by a delicate pocket watch, and she couldn't help holding it in her hand and looking at it carefully.

"Girl has good eyesight. This is a good thing, but I didn't make it. It was given to me by a friend." The old man said with a smile.

"Since it was given to you by someone else, then..." You Ran still put down the pocket watch.

"No, no, take it, if you like it, take it." The old man put the pocket watch back into Youran's hand again, "The friend who made the watch told me, let me give you a watch. There is still a small piece of glass left. You see, this way, it can be removed."

The old man opened the watch, and sure enough, there was a small mechanism on the inside of the case, and a small piece of glass could be taken out with just a light tap of a fingertip. "The guy said, let me put the photo of my beloved girl in it, and then wear it every day, and open it up to take a look when I miss her. At that time, I was married to my wife, and she was shy and refused to let me put it Put her picture in."

The old man spoke happily, and gestured with his hands, "This is all our older generation's thing, now you young people see each other every day, cuddling and hugging each other, it doesn't matter if you want to kiss on the street, No one has the patience to hide these small thoughts anymore..."

Xiaojie tugged at the corner of his grandfather's clothes, glanced sideways, and muttered in a low voice, "Grandpa, you've gone too far."

"Oh... ha, ha, yes, yes, look at me, what are you talking about." The old man patted his head, took the pocket watch from Youran's hand, sat on his work table and started to take it. Wipe it carefully with a soft cloth.He carefully adjusted the time again, took out a small wooden box, put a soft cloth inside, and put the pocket watch in it carefully.

"Girl, it's rare that you like this pocket watch, so I'll give it to you."

Leisurely took the box, nodded, resisted the choking in her throat, and said thank you.

********

Li Zeyan woke up the next morning after Leisurely left.Wei Qian was crying and laughing in front of him with two panda eyes on his face, he picked his eyelids, touched his forehead, jumped up and down like he was going crazy.

"What happened?" Li Zeyan only felt sore all over his body, and when he took a closer look, he found himself lying on a water bed.

"President, you have been in a coma for two whole days and two nights. I have searched all the doctors I can think of in the world, but I can't find the reason. Now you are finally awake, Amitabha, Christ has appeared..."

Li Zeyan didn't care about his incoherent speech, looked around the room, and asked, "Where's Youran?"

"She..." Wei Qian's face froze suddenly, he dropped his hands and took two steps back by his side, he hesitated for a long time without saying a word.

"Where did she go?" Li Zeyan stood up, lying down for a long time made him a little unsteady, Wei Qian stepped forward to support him. "President, please slow down."

"Let me ask you, where did she go?" Li Zeyan's voice turned hurried.

"I don't know." Wei Qian bit the bullet and could only tell the truth, "She has been guarding you since noon yesterday, and then...Luo Jia came..."

"What did they talk about?"

"I didn't hear it. They talked alone in the study, and then went out leisurely for an afternoon, came back at dinner time, wiped your body once, and went out again."

"Did she tell you where she went?"

"No... But, it was strange when she left."

"What do you mean?" Li Zeyan felt a chill in his heart.

"She gave me a box and asked me to give it to you on your birthday. Also, don't let me tell you in advance..." Obviously, Wei Qian did not keep his promise.

Li Zeyan took the box Wei Qian handed over, which contained an old-fashioned brass pocket watch.Open it, and the cover on the right is the photo of leisurely wearing a wedding dress looking back at herself while shooting a charity calendar, and a small pink card was carefully hidden beside the box, with six simple words written on it:

"Li Zeyan, happy birthday."

"Idiot..." Li Zeyan shook the pocket watch in his hand, his eyes were red.

******

This is the first time Li Zeyan knocked on Luo Jia's door.Luo Jia's face was rare without makeup, the sharpness of the still beautiful face was missing, and the slightly red eye sockets were rather pitiful.She was only wearing a white one-piece dress, no different from ordinary people.

"Are you awake?" She leaned against the door frame, not hiding the concern in her eyes.

"Well. I came to ask you, where did she go?" Li Zeyan pursed his lips, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and kept a distance from her.

"Not even greetings?" Luo Jia's eyes flashed a moment of deep disappointment: "I just opened my mouth to ask her... Come and sit first."

Li Zeyan hesitated for a moment, but still stepped into her house.

"any drinks?"

"I don't have much time, what do you want?" Li Zeyan ignored her question.

"You just recovered from illness, let me make you a cup of tea." Luo Jia's tone seemed to be that of a gentle girlfriend, and she tiptoed to take a neatly packaged tea set from the top of the cupboard, "This tea set is the first time Open, I hope it will be useful..."

"Answer me!" Li Zeyan took her hand.She looked up at him, still smiling gently: "Don't worry, take your time."

"You..." Li Zeyan held back the anger in his heart, and let go of her hand, "What exactly do you want? Let me ask you the conditions, I must know where she is right away..."

"Her? Which one are you talking about?" Luo Jia's voice carried a hint of sarcasm. "The dark one is still the bright one..."

"I don't have time for word games with you. Conditions!"

Lorgar wrapped her arms around his neck and tiptoed to kiss his tight lips. "You know what I want?"

"Is this interesting?" He frowned and stared at her face, without any waves on his expression.

"Why are you doing this? It's been ten years. Haven't I saved you yet? Haven't I been good enough to you?" Luo Jia grabbed his lapel, his tone becoming a little agitated.

"I can repay you in other ways."

"Is it your money? Or more movie and TV commercial endorsements, give me all the fame a female star can get..."

"I can promise you all of these."

Luo Jia hugged Li Zeyan, but no matter how tightly she hugged her, there seemed to be a deep gap between them.His face was still cold and serious, and there was no tenderness in his eyes.

"I don't want these...you don't know how scared I am every time I go on stage...I try to be a star so that one day I can become successful enough to stand by your side, Be a woman worthy of you..."

"Didn't I tell you that I'm not interested?"

"You liar!" Luo Jia's hand holding his sleeve trembled slightly, "You fell in love with her, and you gave her all your tenderness! Even if she became dark, gloomy and cruel, you still I don’t want to leave her! To tell you the truth, your she has been swallowed by that dark self forever, forever, forever, she will never think of you again, she will sink into the painful past and destroy the whole world!”

"Where is she?!" Li Zeyan pinched her arm and asked the hysterical woman loudly.

"I won't tell you..." Luo Jia raised his head slightly, with a malicious smile on his lips, "Even if you kill me, I won't let you find her again!"

"Do you think I can't do anything..." Li Zeyan let go of her, allowing her to fall powerlessly to the ground.He raised his hand, and the silver light in his palm flickered.

Luo Jia sneered and raised his hand: "What I want to do is not let you go back..."
