Cannon fodder meets cannon fodder

015 The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko

Ming Qifan closed his mouth, but Yu Chengze ignored him and continued with his hand movements. The atmosphere in the kitchen was weird and silent, and the atmosphere of tension gradually permeated.

Guigui obviously sensed that something was wrong between the two of them. He was anxiously circling between the two of them, his tail drooping, and the whole dog was lethargic, and whimpered softly. It's a message of "don't fight, you two."

The feeling of being cared about by a dog is a bit weird and soft-hearted, Yu Chengze's indifferent expression faded away, he bent down and rubbed Guigui's head, his tone slowed down: "Ming Shao, please wash the cucumber and put it on the chopping board Shall I come and shoot?"

Ming Qifan looked at Guigui, the coldness in his eyes faded, he remained silent, but he walked towards the refrigerator, silently took three cucumbers and washed them under the faucet.

In less than an hour, in the living room, the meals were laid out one by one, Xia Ran sighed and exaggerated: "Brother, you are so good, I usually make noodles and stir-fry potato shreds."

Yu Chengze waved his hand, and smiled gently at Xia Ran: "It's just home-cooked food, and I don't know how to make it difficult."

Ming Qifan was in a bad mood, so he scanned the "home-cooked dishes" on the table, stir-fried cabbage with shrimps, hot and sour cabbage, three cups of chicken, and then a seaweed egg drop soup and cold cucumber. They were all home-cooked, not difficult , but looking at it makes people appetite.

Ming Qifan inexplicably remembered a passage he had read somewhere, you have money, you can send 999 roses, you can invite the person you like to go to a high-end restaurant or even a Michelin star, but in the end you find out that what impresses that person It was just a daisy bush that another person picked for him on the way home, and a bowl of noodles in the kitchen for him in the middle of the night.

The colorful drinks are delicious, but the last thing you can't do without is the glass of boiled water.

Yu Chengze and Xia Ran had already sat down, and Yu Chengze put down his chopsticks to pick up several chopstick dishes for Xia Ran. When they both looked up, they found Ming Qifan standing there with a complicated expression.

"Ming Shao." Yu Chengze twitched the corners of his mouth and shouted reluctantly.

Xia Ran looked at Ming Qifan worriedly: "Young Master Ming, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ming Qifan sat down and looked at Xia Ran: "Just call me Afan."

Xia Ran was stuck, stunned for a moment and smiled: "Afan."

Ming Qifan didn't know where to go, he stretched out his chopsticks and took a bite of several dishes, Yu Chengze and Xia Ran looked at each other, the next second Ming Qifan's expression was complicated, he seemed a little unwilling but still

"I sincerely admit" expression: "Teacher Yu."

Yu Chengze's heart skipped a beat. In front of Xia Ran, this kid has turned into a gentle and polite boy again. He is really a model of carrying out double-dealing to the end.

Yu Chengze nodded with a smile on his face: "What's wrong?"

Ming Qifan smiled brightly: "Mr. Yu's cooking is really delicious. Whoever marries Mr. Yu will be lucky in the future."

This time, Yu Chengze's expression became complicated, how could Ming Qifan be so generous and praise him in front of Xia Ran.

Ming Qifan chatted with Xia Ran, chatting and laughing happily, he is knowledgeable, good at dealing with people, he can say anything, and he doesn't pay attention to the practice of "not talking when eating" at the dinner table.

Yu Chengze tends to eat quietly. He has been alone for so many years. There is only one person and a dog at home. He has long been used to being alone at the dinner table. Even though there are three people at the table now, Yu Chengze is still habitually quiet.

It's just that in the quiet crevice, Xia Ran will pick up a dish with chopsticks, and then smoothly pick up a piece of cucumber and put it in Ming Qifan's bowl.

"Don't just talk." Yu Chengze was really smooth, and he still pretended to be calm, "Eat a la carte, Ming Shao, you wash the cucumber yourself, taste it."

Ming Qifan felt that the words were a bit awkward... but he didn't think of anything awkward, he reciprocated, picked up a chopstick of cabbage and put it in Yu Chengze's bowl: "Teacher Yu, you eat too."

Of the few dishes on the table, the only thing Yu Chengze didn't touch was the hot and sour cabbage. It's not that he didn't want to eat it, but he didn't like it. Ming Qifan... Yu Chengze swallowed the cabbage with a green face, he definitely did it on purpose.

After the meal, a few people soaked their rice bowls in the sink and ran to the living room. The three of them took the music score, Yu Chengze was the guide, Xia Ran had the best pitch, and Ming Qifan became Yu Chengze's important mentor.

Ming Qifan didn't think that Yu Chengze had "personal grudges", he looked at Yu Chengze frowning, lowered his head and sang a few words from time to time, showing him a serious expression, Ming Qifan blinked, seeing Yu Chengze being so serious I am also embarrassed to desert myself.

At the end of the practice, Ming Qifan felt that he had reached the highest level of singing in history, and Yu Chengze was the one who was reluctant, and let him go with a bit of disgust: "That's it, but the later stage must be modified. "

Ming Qifan just raised his breath with a sigh of relief and froze there, Xia Ran laughed: "Brother, we must not reach your level, Young Master Ming is already great."

Ming Qifan didn't say a word, just smiled, Yu Chengze looked at Ming Qifan, this guy looks like a smiling tiger, very pretty.

Yu Chengze's guidance was over here, it was still early, but after nine o'clock, Xia Ran had saved up a lot of plates, he picked one at random, the three of them leaned over to have a look, Guigui also stuck his head over.

"The story of dog Hatchi."

Ming Qifan read aloud.

"Have you seen it?"

Xia Ran asked Xiang Ming Qifan and Yu Chengze.

Both Ming Qifan and Yu Chengze shook their heads, Xia Ran thought for a while: "It's a very good movie, I've watched it once, brother, Ming...Afan, do you want to watch it?"

"I've heard about it all the time, but I've never seen it." Yu Chengze nodded, "Just watch this."

Ming Qifan didn't care about watching the movie, he didn't care about anything, so he nodded in agreement.

The disc is inserted/inserted into the DVD, and the movie starts. The picture is a bit dark and old, like the warm yellow tone of the movie Thrilling Heart and Amelie, not the bright high-definition that is popular now.

The 94-minute film, from when a puppy was found in Japan to being picked up by a music professor in the United States, until the professor died of a stroke halfway through the film, the rhythm is slow.

Ming Qifan was watching patiently, he and Yu Chengze were sitting on the long sofa, with Guigui in the middle, Xia Ran was sitting on the single sofa, Ming Qifan looked over, Xia Ran was already sleeping with his head on the sofa caught.

Ming Qifan stroked Guigui's hair. The light in the living room was off, only the 49-inch LCD TV was emitting light. He turned his head to look at Yu Chengze with this light, and found that Yu Chengze was watching seriously, and the lines of his profile were covered by the movie. The warm yellow-based light shone slightly, soft and... warm.

Ming Qifan retracted his gaze and focused on the film again. In the second half, the protagonist Akita Inu Hachi began to go to the station on time every day to wait for his master to get off work, but he never waited again. Ming Qifan thought it should be very touching, but the film The rhythm of the song was still slow, and he didn't feel moved at all.

Dogs are such unintelligent, stupid, old-fashioned creatures.

Ming Qifan thought silently in his heart, there are no people left, and waiting is just a waste of his life.

He was thinking like this, but he saw Yu Chengze reached out and took the boxed tissue on the coffee table into his arms, Ming Qifan thought it must be, but when he turned his head, Yu Chengze's face was shining brightly, maybe he was crying.

"Uncle..." Ming Qifan's mouth twitched, "Are you going to be so exaggerated?"

Yu Chengze ignored him, and silently wiped away his tears, and wiped his nose by the way. He really couldn't bear it anymore, so he just couldn't bear it anymore.

Ming Qifan bulged his cheeks, and found that Yu Chengze, an uncle who was about to be in his thirties, probably had a glass heart.

Time passed little by little, and the film came to an end. Yu Chengze was in the state of wiping his tears and nose all the time in the second half. Ming Qifan also felt a little emotional from the beginning. He was used to the fast pace of Hollywood blockbusters. Yes, Hachiko, the loyal dog, was not touched until the end.

In the dark night, snow piled up on the side of the road. Ten years later, Xiao Ba became an old dog. He ran to the opposite side of the station for the last time. This time, he didn’t squat down. There, he slowly closed his eyes.

The picture turned into black and white, and changed to Xiaoba's perspective. The professor came out from the station. Xiaoba threw himself into the professor's arms happily. The professor smiled and said, Xiaoba, let's go.

At the end of the play, subtitles appeared, the real Xiao Hachi was born in Odate City, Japan...

Yu Chengze wiped his nose fiercely, and his tears flowed out like a faucet. After wiping a ball of paper, he reached out to take it, and collided with Ming Qifan's hand.

Yu Chengze withdrew his hand, he looked at Ming Qifan, the boy took out a piece of paper and wiped his nose fiercely, and shrugged his shoulders, Yu Chengze wanted to laugh at it, but at the moment it was really sad, so he took a picture Pat Ming Qifan on the shoulder: "You still talk about me, don't you yourself—"

Ming Qifan turned his head, Yu Chengze's words stopped abruptly, tears were streaming down Ming Qifan's face.

In the next moment, Ming Qifan cried directly, hiccupped, and spoke incoherently: "Why are you so stupid! Wait, wait, what is there to wait for, this life, I just want to live well! Why is Xiaoba so so Stupid!"

Guigui was sandwiched between the two, raised his head in confusion by Ming Qifan's crying like a child, it saw Ming Qifan crying sadly, so it leaned its head over to lick Ming Qifan's face, and made a low sound. The sound of whining is the same as comforting people.

Yu Chengze was originally made to feel nothing by Ming Qifan's exaggerated crying, seeing the sensible Guigui here, and thinking of Guigui's lifespan, he himself couldn't help it, tears came out.

Xia Ran was woken up by the crying, rubbed his eyes and looked at Yu Chengze and Ming Qifan, Ming Qifan hiccupped while hugging Guigui, Yu Chengze's eye circles were also red, and he patted Ming Qifan's shoulder to comfort him.

Xia Ran——

He closed his eyes, thinking that this must be a dream, this scene is so weird!

Finally, at the end of the night, Xia Ran went to the balcony to carry a pinch of beer, and the three drank together. Xia Ran was the worst drinker, and fell directly on the sofa without opening his eyes.

Yu Chengze and Ming Qifan have a good capacity for alcohol, they drank cans one by one, Ming Qifan was a little dazed while drinking: "I was a little embarrassed just now, Uncle Yu, sleep and forget just now."

Yu Chengze looked at him amusedly: "I said, you didn't cry at first, why did you cry later? The crying is really scary, just like a child."

Ming Qifan gritted his teeth, was angry twice and then discouraged, only a small light was turned on in the living room, dim yellow light, this young master of the Ming family with a beautiful face lowered his head slightly, his two clumps of crow-black eye feathers were like a small brush Trembling under the warm light.

Yu Chengze felt that he had drunk too much, and he suddenly wanted to reach out and touch those two clumps of eye feathers lightly.

"Yeah, why am I crying?" Ming Qifan muttered softly.

Yu Chengze still couldn't hold back his hands, he rubbed the head of Ming Qifan twice, nothing was wrong, and there was no gap, and there was a beautiful child in front of him.

Ming Qifan was suddenly touched on the head, he didn't react for a long time, his face turned cold again, when he looked up, he saw Yu Chengze holding a can of beer in his hand, shaking it, his expression was lonely and quiet: "In front of the film It’s so plain, I almost fell asleep watching it, but afterward, Xiaoba has been waiting and waiting, everyone should be moved at this time.”

Yu Chengze said this, smiled, lowered his head and took a sip of beer, and then continued: "Everyone's tears are shed because of Xiaoba's waiting. He has been waiting for ten years, which is the same for a dog for a lifetime." Long, no matter how plain the film is, as long as it is not hard-hearted, who can hold back tears?"

Ming Qifan blinked his eyes and wanted to say Uncle Yu, you have a bad expression. The next second, Yu Chengze's voice was soft like babbling. Ming Qifan thought he was having auditory hallucinations, but he looked at Yu Chengze's expression and was sure. that is not.

"Who would want to wait for me like this?"

Yu Chengze said that just now.

"you……"

Ming Qifan opened his mouth and closed it again, Yu Chengze was drunk after all, he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the sofa in an instant, Guigui also fell into a deep sleep lying under the sofa.

Ming Qifan thought to himself, just now seemed to be a hallucination, it was the first time he saw someone showing such an expression.

How to describe it?

is lonely.

The loneliness that is as grand as the tide and has nowhere to escape.
