I accompanied the flowers that year

No matter how sad I feel, I have to cheer myself up. I wiped away my tears, even though I couldn’t dry them, so I took a pot of water from the faucet in the yard with tears all over my face. There was no hot water in the pot. Fortunately, the water was not very cold. There was a towel on the water pipe, which was already tattered and covered with dust. I had to pump it in the water many times before it was cleaned. I went back to the house with the basin, lifted the quilt, He still didn't resist. I used a towel to gently wipe the marks left by the man on Xiaoyu's body, and wiped them along the spine bit by bit. There are also obvious burns, which are burns from cigarette butts, on arms, thighs, waist, everywhere.

Oh my God, Xiao Yu, what kind of inhuman treatment have you experienced during the year I was away?

My heart was so painful that I couldn't breathe.

I dare not use force, he is too thin, as if he would break if he exerted force, except for that thin layer of skin, there is not even a bit of flesh on his body, just like a walking dead, with only a skeleton.

I turned Xiaoyu over and carefully cleaned the dirt in the backyard. The moment I touched it, I clearly felt Xiaoyu trembling. I thought I hurt him, but immediately, I couldn’t feel anything. When we arrived, Xiaoyu closed his eyes tightly, and grabbed the only blanket around him with both hands. Enduring the pain in my heart, I washed every part of Xiaoyu's body. How I wish I could wash away this nightmare and let Xiaoyu return to that carefree teenager.

Wiping and wiping, my tears came surging again.

That summer, that elf, that happy angel, when I thought I gave him the best choice, did he push him into hell instead?

If, at the beginning, I could have been more firm, I could have been calmer, and I could have faced the feelings in my heart, would it not have ended like this?

After cleaning, I put a blanket on him and went to look for clothes. There were clothes in the room, but they were all tattered and spread on the floor. It's clothes, but I don't know about the other places. The room next door is also empty, there is only a big earthen kang, and there is a box on the kang. When I opened it, a musty smell came to my nostrils. A sneeze, most of them were filled with a few quilts and a few old clothes, such clothes can not be worn, there is no way, I went back to Xiaoyu's room, took off my autumn clothes inside, let him wear them, Xiaoyu himself She was small and petite, and now she is even skinnier with only a skeleton left. This dress obviously doesn't fit, the sleeves grow out to a large extent, and the neckline slides down the shoulders, but something is better than nothing, and it's late autumn now. If you don’t wear anything, you will be unable to carry your body. Although the neckline is too big for him and the waist is too wide, the thermal effect is not very good. Fortunately, he didn’t resist. I put the clothes on him carefully, afraid of touching him Although the wound on his body should have scabbed over, he always felt that his whole body would shatter if he touched it. After putting on his clothes, he gently put him on the bed and covered him with a quilt.

I saw some scattered money on the table in Xiaoyu's room, ranging from ten yuan to five yuan, as well as steamed buns and vegetables, but the steamed buns were already hard and moldy, and the vegetables were so rotten that they couldn't be eaten at all. I helped him put the money in the drawer. There was nothing to eat at home. Although I just brought some over, they were all snacks and could not be eaten as meals.

I think, he must not have eaten yet. There is a canteen near Xiaoyu’s house. I basically ran into the canteen to buy some simple dishes. I didn’t dare to rest. I ran back quickly, afraid to leave Something unexpected will happen in a while. When I came back, Xiao Yu had already fallen asleep. I didn’t wake him up and started cooking in the kitchen. , It seems that it has been useless for a long time, and I feel faintly uneasy again in my heart.

I started looking for a lighter and firewood to start a fire. The stove wasn’t too big, but it couldn’t be fired at first. I was busy for a while, and finally chose to give up. I took out the bread I bought, grabbed a small piece, and handed it to Xiao Yu mouthed, "Xiao Yu, shall we have dinner?"

Now Xiaoyu, I really don't know what words to use, I don't say a word, I don't seem to know anyone, more like a kind of mental closure, or a kind of amnesia, but I also I am not an expert, so I dare not draw conclusions casually. Deep down in my heart, I prefer to think that he was temporarily hit and unwilling to speak.

I hugged Xiaoyu and let him sit on my lap. I broke the bread into small pieces, and when the bread reached my mouth, Xiaoyu would open his mouth, like a programmed robot.

When I was feeding Xiaoyu, my aunt called me and asked me where I was, and said that it was getting late and I should go home early. I dealt with it casually and ended the call because I subconsciously didn’t want my aunt to know that I was in Xiaoyu. here.

I only ate a few mouthfuls of bread, not even one-fifth of the bread. I coaxed him back and forth, but Xiaoyu refused to eat, so I had to hug him to the bed and let him sleep.

I can't stay here tonight. There are still many things I don't understand. I want to know how Xiaoyu became what he is now. There are still many things I don't understand. I have to find out.

I don't worry about letting him live here alone. What if that person came back again?

But where can I send him?

"Xiaoyu, I'm going out now, I'll be back later, you lock the lock of this house, if it's not for me, don't open the door, okay?"

Seeing Xiaoyu's dumbfounded appearance made me really worried. If someone came, I'm afraid Xiaoyu would not have the consciousness to resist at all. In the end, I added a lock on the outside of the door. It is the kind of person who locks his lover in a cage in order to protect his lover. Some people say that such a person is a natural desire to protect, and some people say that this is a kind of psychopathy, but if there is such a situation, it is like What I saw just now, I understand instead, because I also have such an impulse, I don't want him to be hurt, and I want to do my best to protect him, even if I put him in a cage.

I locked him because there are some things that I need to ask, and Xiaoyu's current state is obvious, and he can't answer my questions.

Along the way, my heart was very disturbed, as if things were developing too fast, and I was caught off guard. What's more, these things were too unexpected and messy. If it wasn't for Xiaoyu's body temperature, I would Mistaking it for a dream, a nightmare that disturbed my mind.
