bud

With only the moon and stars, the night is dark.The bare branches stood aside, and everything was silent.

In the early morning, the street lights in the park were all off, there was no wind, only the silvery white moonlight quietly fell on the lake, reflecting a shadow that was too fast to catch, and passed by in a flash.

With a "plop", it seemed that something fell into the lake. The bird perched on the tree was awakened, opened its eyes and spread its wings and flew around the lake.

There were ripples on the surface of the lake, as if someone had fallen into the water.

Dizzy, with fear welling up from the bottom of his heart, Jiang Yu just felt breathless.

He seemed to be grabbed by the ankle, unable to break out of the water and reach the shore.His arms struggled desperately in the water, but he fell deeper and deeper.

The water gulped from his mouth into his lungs, making his chest almost explode.He fell into the lake and couldn't breathe, but his consciousness was extremely clear. He scratched in the water with his hands, trying to catch something and save him who was dying.

Everything was overwhelmed by the darkness, and his sight became illusory—he closed his eyes, letting his body sink deeper and deeper.

The lake returned to calm, reflecting the branches, as if nothing had happened.

"Jiang Yu?" Someone was shouting, and the voice shouted again eagerly, and it seemed that the ringing of the mobile phone was still ringing in the ear, "Jiang Yu!"

Jiang Yu trembled violently, opened his eyes, and found that his entire back was soaked in sweat.

It was his alarm clock ringing next to his ear, and the sound of Zi Luo was heard outside the door.The feeling of suffocation did not dissipate when he woke up, and he had another nightmare of drowning.

Zi Luo's voice still sounded outside the door, with deep worry, as if he was about to break into the door in the next second.

"Luoluo—" Jiang Yu adjusted his breathing and responded, "I'm fine."

Opening the door, Zi Luo's figure appeared in front of his eyes, Jiang Yu smiled at him: "I didn't hear you because I was too sleepy, wait for me, I'll be fine soon."

Zi Luo saw the fine sweat on his forehead, his eyes moved with his steps, and he remained silent without making a sound.

The summer in Zhangcheng is as hot as ever. Zi Luo was blinded by the sun just a few minutes after he went out. He turned a corner on the road while riding a bicycle. After entering the school uniform, the air squeezed in and bulged up, and then slowly stuck back to the back.

The sun seemed to be roasting people, Zi Luo waited for the red light, and a bicycle finally caught up with him.Jiang Yu's cheeks were as hot as peach blossoms that had just bloomed, and when the sun shone, he could see a faint layer of water on his face.

"...Are you still angry?" Jiang Yu stopped beside Zi Luo's bicycle, squinting his eyes to watch the red light count down, "I won't make such jokes in the future, okay, Luo Luo, I know you are the most magnanimous."

Both of them have fair skin. They ride to school and back home every day. It's a miracle that they haven't been tanned by the summer sun.

The school uniform of No. [-] Middle School is not the same as before. It is dark blue and white, but light blue and white. The trousers are not all blue, but pure white fabric of the same color as the short sleeves. Light blue, like the sky, also like the sea in Yungang.

Zi Luo ignored him, saw the light turn green, kicked his long legs across the path of the horse and went straight forward.

"Hey——" Jiang Yu sighed behind him, because he was afraid of being late, he rode in a hurry all the way, and he couldn't keep up physically.

He just made a joke and said, "The girl in Class 3, Senior [-] is pretty good-looking, you can chase it for me." After Zi Luo finished talking, he didn't pay much attention to him, until now he hasn't even said a word.

Zi Luo's expression was not good when he went out, but Jiang Yu didn't want to mention his dream, he found another topic, but Zi Luo just ignored him after he finished speaking.

This wasn't the first time Jiang Yu told him these things, but it was the first time Zi Luo didn't talk to him because of these things.Jiang Yu thought, this is probably called lifting a rock and one day it will fall on his foot.

I live in a courtyard house, some distance away from the city, but it’s not too far from the school by taking a shortcut across the street, usually within ten minutes.

At the school gate, the car was not allowed to be ridden, so Zi dipped his toes on the ground and pushed the car in.Every student in the No. [-] Middle School wears a school badge on the chest of their school uniform. Because Zi Luo is tall, the school uniform pants turned into cropped trousers on his legs, revealing his white ankles.

Jiang Yu's hair was still messed up, and he was leaning against the bicycle with his head almost stuffed into his schoolbag. He stretched out his arms and turned around. Zi Luo stopped and glanced at him sideways, and didn't leave.

"Strange." Jiang Yu frowned and turned over for a while, during which time the homework book fell out, and the wind blew it a little farther away.

Zi Luo parked the bicycle, walked over and bent down to pick up the homework book. It seemed to be covered with dust. He reached out and shook it a few times, and handed it to the person who was still flipping through the schoolbag: "No school card? Exactly, put it on, go back let's go home."

"Director Zhu put me down like this, you learned from him, right?" It should have been taken down and put on the table when he was sleeping at noon, Jiang Yu stuffed his homework into his bag, avoided the guard's gaze, and turned his side slightly Body, "Luoluo, remember the iron railing over there? I'll wait for you there."

It wasn't the first time that Jiang Yu didn't bring his school badge, and it wasn't that he couldn't enter, but he had to wait until the class teacher was notified to pick him up.Their homeroom teacher's surname is Hu, and Jiang Yu thinks his surname should be Xu, because he babbles like he is chanting scriptures. "Xu" has another meaning in Zhangcheng, which means a lot of nonsense.

The students around me walked by with their schoolbags on their backs, occasionally turning their heads to look at them.Zi Luo had long been used to his carelessness, and there was a place on the school railing wall where the two of them specially used to pass the school badge.

Zi Luo raised his chin to signal him to wait, and then Jiang Yu pushed the cart back.

No. [-] Middle School does not use walls, but iron railings.The top is sharp, and Hou Yi, a classmate in his class, scratched his pants when he turned them over. He covered them all afternoon and asked his aunt to sew them after school. The seam is still very conspicuous.

Zi Luo parked his bicycle, took off the school badge and walked inside, looked around to make sure he didn't see Director Zhu patrolling back and forth, and handed it to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu's bicycle was still parked by the side of the road. Standing among a pile of lush green flowers and trees, his forehead was sweating from the heat, and he said, "Wait for me."

Zi Luo raised his head slightly, not knowing whether to agree or not.

"Brother Luo!"

Someone shouted in the distance, Zi Luo looked back and saw Hou Yi running towards him a few steps, with a long seam on his trousers, which was particularly eye-catching.

Hou Yi just got out of his car and turned on the air conditioner from home to the car. He didn't feel too hot at the moment, so he walked up to Zi Luo and asked, "Jiang Yu forgot to bring his school card again?"

Zi Luo put his hands in his trouser pockets, nodded and walked in.

There are dense sycamore trees planted in the two rows at the entrance of one east gate, and there are cicadas on the trees, which can't stop singing in summer, which is annoying to hear too much.

The leaves cover part of the bright sun, and the fine sunlight hangs down through the gaps and forms silhouettes on the ground.The wind swayed again and again, giving the illusion that the ground was shaking.

Zi Luo walked slowly, very slowly.He was about to look back, but when he looked up, he saw two or three people not far away. One was carrying a video camera, the other was holding a stack of papers, and another girl was interviewing passing students with a microphone.

Hou Yi also saw it, clicked his tongue, and said, "Why did the guard let them in again? Come back every once in a while, and Director Zhu actually allows it? Can it be done?"

It's not the first time for these people to come here, at least they have seen this program group since the beginning of Zi Luogao.It is an entertaining program dedicated to interviewing students, and almost all of the questions asked have nothing to do with learning.The questions are similar to "what kind of behavior of your roommate can't bear the most", "who do you think is better-looking, star xxx or xxxx, and why", "what kind of behavior from your boyfriend/girlfriend will make you crazy instantly", "the first time you How is the person you like now?" and so on, the students thought it was quite novel, and they were very happy to answer it every time.

Zi Luo was interviewed once, and the question he was asked was—how much do you think hairstyle affects appearance?

Very boring.Zi Luo replied: "I don't know, because I'm handsome even with a bald head."

After finishing speaking, only an extremely chic back was left behind. After that, everyone who saw this program group took a detour.

The sun was covered by the shade of the trees, and many students did not leave, standing under the trees talking or waiting for someone.Zi Luo wanted to look back to see why Jiang Yu hadn't come yet, so he wouldn't be spotted by the guard, but he didn't turn around because he saw three people from the program group running towards him.

The girl with the microphone had her hair slightly curled, and she ran over to him and said, "Is this handsome guy accepting an interview?"

The camera just took pictures of him, and Zi Luo looked up, but he didn't have time to answer, because the girl had already asked, "What do you think secret love is?"

Crush?what else?It's just a crush.

How could he always come across such a boring question, but Zi Luo didn't answer this time, or in other words, he couldn't think of an answer to this boring question.

Hou thought he didn't talk, and he was very face-saving, and broke up a bunch of things with a smile: "Secret love, one person's business, one person starts and one person ends, one person turbulent waves to one person shed two lines of tears, from the beginning to the end. It just touched me."

Seeing that Zi Luo didn't speak, the girl pointed the microphone at Hou Yi, and asked again: "It's so emotional, it seems that you have experienced it before?"

"No." Hou Yi wondered if it was you who asked, "Secret love is so boring, I always confess directly."

The girl smiled, but she seemed to be more interested in Zi Luo, and handed the microphone to him again, and the camera returned to directly in front of him.

"What do you think it's like to be in love?"

Zi Luo was silent.

He has no answer.

A voice came from behind, with a smile, and naughty: "Ask the wrong person, he is so handsome, do you think he may have a crush on someone else, it's someone else who has a crush on him."

Zi Luo's shoulders sank, and he knew who it was without looking back.He glanced at the half of his arm sticking out on the right. There was a small mole on the forearm. Zi Luo knew that Jiang Yu had this mole since he was a child.

"Ah—" This girl was probably on the job for the first time, and finally realized, "That's true."

Zi Luo is handsome and tall, Jiang Yu is as tall as him, but different from Zi Luo in handsome, he has a bit of ruffian, Zi Luo has a bit of madness.Both of them are outstanding in appearance in the same class, standing together is even more eye-catching, and many girls looked over along the way.

Can't waste time, because Hou Yi still has a few math homework questions to write, so he dragged Ziluo to go back to the classroom, complaining as he walked: "I ask such boring questions every time, red nose is not the most annoying thing that has nothing to do with learning Why, why do you let these people in every time?"

The red nose is Director Zhu. This name was not given by them, but has been handed down from the previous high school seniors. Because Director Zhu has a red nose, and when he was arrested, he became even redder when he was angry. If it matches, just call it like that, and get used to it over time.

Jiang Yu walked into the teaching building with his hands in his pockets, and said, "I'm sure I'll give you some benefits. Standing there and asking a few questions without delaying class, he won't suffer."

In the classroom, Hou Yi took away the leftover homework, and a circle of people copied the homework there.Jiang Yu sat in front of Zi Luo, put his homework on the table, looked back at Zi Luo, and said, "You're not angry with me, are you?"

Ziluo had never been really angry with him since he was a child. He leaned on the chair and said, "If I were really angry, you are still basking in the sun at the school gate and waiting for Lao Hu to pick you up."

The fan above his head was whistling, Jiang Yu put his arms on his desk, and explained: "I'm just kidding, I'm not interested in them."

Zi Luo didn't want to talk about this topic with him, so he opened his mouth and uttered a word: "Oh."

A man rushed in at the door, holding his schoolbag, and ran to Zi Luo, "Brother! Help, copy your math homework!"

Zi Luo raised his chin towards Hou Yi, Zhou Shuosuo looked back, Hou Yi was overwhelmed by many students.

"I'm dizzy, I'm a little late." Zhou Shuosuo looked down at Jiang Yu's homework, and was about to take it, but hesitated, "Did you do it yourself or did you copy it?"

Jiang Yu turned to look at him: "Although my grades are not as good as Zi Luo's, I'm better than you no matter what, copy if you like, or get out if you don't."

Zhou Shuosuo was still a little hesitant, and Jiang Yu shook the homework book in his hand a few times: "I did it at noon under the guidance of the top three gods in our grade. If you don't copy it, then I will give it to Meng Shu. I am looking forward to it." with me."

Zhou Shuosuo looked back, Zi Luo also looked up, and Meng Shu with two pigtails was staring at it, holding a math exercise book in her hand.

"I believe Ziluo." After Zhou Shuosuo finished speaking, he returned to his seat with his homework book, and Meng Shu followed immediately.

Jiang Yu laughed: "Take my homework and say that I believe you, it's really good enough."

The fan was blowing hot air, and Zi Luo fanned the book a few times: "You tell him you wrote it yourself, and he probably won't take it."

"You're underwhelmed again." Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes and became more aggressive, "You know how to hate me, and you won't have the energy if you don't hate me someday."

Zi Luo laughed, and looked at the time, it was only 10 minutes before class, and two groups of people in the class were copying their homework.

Squad leader Zhong Tian squeezed out from the crowd after finishing the question, walked up to Zi Luo with his math homework book, and said, "After reading your question, I realized how wrong I was. I was troubled for a long time when I was doing it at noon. , I knew I would send you a message to ask you."

Zi Luo didn't speak, reached out to take his homework book and draft, glanced at it and began to explain the idea of ​​the problem to him.

The second year of high school is just the beginning, and the atmosphere of Class A is like entering the third year of high school.Jiang Yu propped his chin and watched in silence, and Zi Luo also talked to him in the same way at noon. The top three student in the grade exuded charm when he was serious.

Every time a friend from another class or Zi Luo is not familiar with praises Zi Luo, Jiang Yu will be very proud to tell them: "Zi Luo, you are so awesome, I am a child, and I can play the piano with good grades. "

Jiang Yu and Zi Luo were born only one day apart, and the two families were only separated by a wall. Their relationship couldn't be better.Zi Luo's grades have been excellent since he was a child. His own grades are not bad, but they are not as good as Zi Luo's.

But Jiang Yu didn't have "other people's children" in his childhood, all he heard was "Look at Zi Luo", and then he was driven to study in Zi's compound.

They grew up together, wore the same underpants, slept in the same bed, not as biological as biological.

This is the No.17 year they grew up together.
