At six o'clock in the morning on August 8, the long-drought city finally ushered in the last rain of this summer, and the raindrops the size of mung beans rumbled down the sky and covered the ground.

In the evening, the rain was clear and the sky was as blue as washing.

On the expressway, a black commercial vehicle was driving at a constant speed, heading towards the busiest center of the city at a speed significantly slower than other vehicles.

In the car, Bai Chi, who was over [-] years old, was half lying on the seat, with thick blue shadows under his closed eyes. Exuding exhaustion.

Manager Zhang Yu looked at Bai Chi's peeling and chapped lips, the corners of his mouth turned up, and said angrily: "You are still in the mood to smile. With your current state, you will become the meat sent to the host's chopping board tonight. butchered."

It was inconvenient for Bai Chi to open his mouth wide. When he spoke, he had a long grin. His voice was still warm and pleasant, and his articulation was clear. "On such a special day as the 25th anniversary, there must be some explosive news to be worthy of the audience who came to the scene."

Zhang Yu's heart suddenly thumped, "What are you going to reveal? It's too exciting!"

"Don't be nervous, I have a measure." Sadness and joy appeared on Bai Chi's face at the same time, making his handsome face a little weird, "The theme of the 25th anniversary is "Trapped Beast", I will not smash his signboard. "

Zhang Yu is Bai Chi's manager, and even his good friend. No one knows everything about Bai Chi better than him, "You still can't forget him."

Bai Chi opened his eyes, his eyelashes were a little wet, and his eyes were clear, thinking of the indisputable face that was firmly engraved in his memory, he felt as if he had knocked over a seasoning bottle of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, all kinds of seasonings hadn't been mixed in yet. At the same time, the imaginary taste is probably a little bit of sweetness hidden in the bitterness, "Hmph, who made his poisonous tongue as unforgettable as his face. If I want to forget him, I will have to live another 25 years."

Zhang Yu complained in his heart, let alone 25 years, even 35 years later would be useless.

After Yu Canshang passed away, whenever Bai Chi was free, he would read Yu Canshang's photos, watch the movies he acted in, and listen to his songs.

Zhang Yu is different from Bai Chi, he has never deliberately looked at, listened to, or thought about everything related to Yu Canshang, so that when he thinks of Yu Canshang at this moment, all that comes to mind is the pair of black clothes from the last meeting. There is nothing else but the eyes that make him feel gloomy.

Zhang Yu used music to break the silence in the car that made him panic, and the music played was the song that had been played tens of thousands of times during the journey between him and Bai Chi - "Trapped Beast".

This song is almost the tangible incarnation left to Bai Chi after Yu Canshang passed away.

"... The sound of the wind tore the shadows of the trees, like a knife scraping past the ears. The gait is elegant and over the mountains, looking for flowers everywhere... The roar of the beast is high and the long tail is like a whip, and it turns into a gasp in the blink of an eye. Red blood. On the other side of the mountain, the mountains are still stretching, and on the other side of the lake, the spring water may be clear..."

Zhang Yu remembers that Bai Chi once said when he was drunk that this song contained Yu Canshang’s dreams and all his struggles, but after Yu Canshang passed away, it gradually became Bai Chi’s own struggles, and it had nothing to do with dreams anymore , Songs and songs, from the beginning to the end, Bai Chi is a trapped beast.

Zhang Yu didn't know, but there was another sentence that Bai Chi hid in his heart. After Yu Canshang passed away, he has been willing to be Yu Canshang's trapped beast, a happy and sad trapped beast.

Bai Chi's breathing gradually became lighter. The ups and downs of more than 20 years did not leave too many marks on his face. Only the fine lines at the corners of his eyes told Zhang Yu that Bai Chi had never escaped the erosion of the years, and he was also growing up little by little. As he grows old, he is finally no longer the young man who can be active in front of the camera even if he does not sleep for several days.

Zhang Yu hoped that Bai Chi could sleep longer, so that when he participated in the live broadcast of "A Date with a Superstar", he would be able to cheer up and deal with the host's tricky questions.

This is the first time since the show started that the three-story studio of "A Date with a Superstar" is really full of seats. The live broadcast of "A Date with a Superstar" started at 07 o'clock, and before 30:[-], the audience all arrived at the scene, and what they held in their hands were mostly Bai Chi's signed posters, promotional posters with albums, and movies, Stills from TV shows.Among them, the one that the older rice misses the most is a poster held by a middle-aged woman.

There are two young men on the poster, one of them laughs wildly and youthfully, and the other is as calm as a pool of deep water, they complement each other so well.There are two signatures on the lower right corner of the poster, Bai Chi & Yu Canshang.At that time, Bai Chi's signature was still young and immature, and he didn't see the later magnificence, but the three characters "Yu Canshang" signed next to his name already showed the air of a big man, chic and domineering.

The girl beside her looked curiously at the poster in the middle-aged woman's hand, "Sister, who is the handsome guy standing next to King Tiantian?"

The middle-aged woman said: "He is Yu Canshang, and he debuted as a group with Bai Chi back then. This is the poster of their first album "Trapped Beast". I heard that the theme of this anniversary is "Trapped Beast" , I brought this poster with me."

The girl carefully took the poster from the middle-aged woman, and stared intently at Yu Canshang's face, "He is so handsome, why have I never heard of him, did he quit the entertainment industry later?"

The middle-aged woman weighed every word carefully, fearing that she might say something wrong, disturbing the man who had been buried in the ground, and ruining his good impression on the girl, "He didn't quit the entertainment circle, and the group 'Sleepy' disbanded later After a few years, Yu Canshang died in an accident."

The word suicide leaves too much room for imagination, and it always puts various suffocating shackles on the dead.When middle-aged women talk about Yu Canshang's death, they like to use the same description as Bai Chi, who died in an accident.This way of death beyond the control of the world is full of helplessness and sadness. It breaks away the destructive conjectures of the good-for-nothings, and stops the repeated mention of scandals by the rememberers.

"What a pity," said the girl.

The middle-aged woman heaved a sigh of relief, her chest swelled with a long-lost feeling of pride after defending her idol, but when she remembered the person who left early, her eyes turned red, and she murmured: "Yes, it's a pity .”

The host's introduction was extremely lengthy. The moment Baichi took the stage, the applause of Mifensi came to him one after another like a tide, bathing in the dazzling lights on the stage, making his extremely tired body feel dizzy.Bai Chi greeted the audience calmly, exchanged a few pleasantries with the host Liu Xiao, sat upright on the red sofa, and pressed his trembling leg with his right hand.

"I'm very happy to invite Tiantian Wang to participate in our "A Date with a Superstar" and plan this episode with the theme of the 25th anniversary of his debut." Liu Xiao said with a smile, "I've always been curious, why did you use "Trapped Beast" as the theme? " as the theme this time?"

The familiar accompaniment resounded in the studio, and Bai Chi smiled gently, "Because "Trapped Beast" is the name of my first debut album, and it is also the name of the title song. Since my debut, it has always been my favorite song. song."

Liu Xiao asked, "Is it because this song was written and composed by Yu Canshang?"

Bai Chi nodded, "Of course there are reasons for this, but what is more important is the value of the song itself. I always think that the melody of "Trapped Beast" is very good, and the lyrics are also very good."

Liu Xiao took out a poster from the table. This poster was the same as the one in the middle-aged woman's hand, but it was not signed. "Would you like to talk to us about the group 'Sleepy', and talk about "Trapped Beast"?" Is this album?"

Bai Chi continued to nod, "Okay."

The MV of the song "Trapped Beast" began to play on the big screen in the studio, and the accompaniment ended. A white ruler in a suit and leather shoes stood outside the cage, wearing a leopard print suit with black spots on a white background, and his eyes were blue Yu Canshang looked at each other through the iron net, which caused the screams of the female fans at the scene, and after the screams, there was an unstoppable, small sobbing sound.

Bai Chi was silent for a moment, until the coldness in his chest was warmed by the full of memories, and then he said briskly: "In this mv, someone needs to wear a leopard print suit and walk in the snow with all fours. When supporting the MV, neither of us wanted to play this role, and we had a fight."

Liu Xiao guessed, "You won the quarrel?"

On the screen, Yu Canshang dressed up as a snow leopard, stepped on the snow step by step, Bai Chi looked at the figure with burning eyes, "No, we were punished by the manager to learn to walk on all fours together, because Canshang walked The posture perfectly met the director's expectations, and he insisted that Shenshang play the snow leopard. By the way, the director who filmed the MV for "Trapped Beast" was Sun Liang."

Everyone sighed for a while, time flies, at that time, Sun Liang has become a famous director who must win awards for making movies, and Bai Chi has also become a superstar in film and television, who has won various awards, and only Yu Canshang has become the only one who can only exist. A black and white figure on the screen.

The atmosphere at the scene was too dull. Liu Xiao took out a hand-painted poster. Yu Canshang, wearing a waistcoat and a long skirt, stood sideways in the yard in front of the villa, with a red rose pinned to his left ear. His movements are unrestrained and provocative.Standing in front of the window sill, Bai Chi only exposed his upper body, resting his chin on his hands, staring down at Yu Canshang with a smile on his lips.

Liu Xiao asked: "Do you still remember the scene in which MV is drawn on this hand-painted poster?"

This poster is drawn so realistically, as if it brought Yu Canshang back in front of Bai Chi's eyes, he couldn't help but leaned forward and took the poster in Liu Xiao's hand, "It's "Rain Dance". We fought too."

Liu Xiao said, "Did you and Yu Canshang always quarrel?"

"Well, the number of quarrels is much more than that of friends, and a little less than that of enemies. Many Mi Fensi joked that our popularity is due to quarreling." Bai Chi, who was immersed in memories, showed a childish smile, "No way At that time, we were young and frivolous, and no one would wear women’s clothes to dance this kind of dance in front of each other. But we started to dance in women’s clothes after arguing. I was worried that someone would treat us as if he wore women’s clothes. A combination of men and women, as for why he suddenly changed his gender, I don't even think about it now."

Liu Xiao thought for a while and said, "Is it because he dances in women's clothing later on because his movements are better than yours?"

Bai Chipo looked at the face of the young boy in the poster, and said with a smile: "How is it possible, he was chosen because the director thinks he looks better in skirts than me."

Liu Xiao said emotionally: "Today is also Yu Canshang's birthday, if he is still here, what would you like to say to him?"

"Let's set up another group and sing. I promise, no matter what you say to hurt me, I will never quarrel with you again. Following you is like following my wife." Bai Chi was dizzy badly, instinctively Saying such a sentence caused several old rice fans to cry.

Saying goodbye to the sad atmosphere, Bai Chi and Liu Xiao stopped talking about Yu Canshang and "The Trapped Beast", and followed Bai Chi's career development track from the past to the present, until they talked about his new movie " After Rebirth".

At the end of the show, Liu Xiao asked a question that Bai Chi would be asked every time he appeared on the show in recent years, "Bai Chi, do you have someone you like? Fans and movie fans are very concerned about when you will get married."

At this moment, Bai Chi was in a daze, only the word liking kept replaying in his mind, "The person I like is Yu Canshang, but he is already dead...I was the one who killed him... ..."

"what!"

"My God! What's going on!"

……

A sentence that was so low that it was difficult to hear it caused a thousand waves in the studio. However, it was not the blockbuster words themselves that caused panic and uproar.

All the hustle and bustle is just because of——Bai Chi, this generation of superstars who are almost born for performance and music, are busy with their careers all day long, brought them a lot of happiness, and made them feel happy. At that time, he fell on the stage and never woke up again.
