"Not long after I was born, my mother passed away, so I have almost no impression of her. I can only know her existence from other people's mouths..." Ritsu Asakawa folded his hands on his knees, with a hint of sadness in his tone "Maybe because of my blood, I like the culture of your country very much. Many of the things my mother left behind were brought from country Z. When I have nothing to do on weekdays, I always go to where she lives. Help her organize her things..."

Fang Shaoyan sat quietly and listened, maybe this sick young man only had these memories to tell him.

Ritsu Asakawa spoke for a while, then suddenly turned his head, stared at Fang Shaoyan, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for making you listen to my nonsense..."

"It's okay, it will be better for you to speak out what's on your mind. Only when you're in a good mood will your body gradually get better." Fang Shaoyan comforted.

"You know why I have to tell you so much?"

Fang Shaoyan was stunned for a while.

"Because you are from country Z, just like my mother, I feel very kind. When I see you, I want to talk to you without knowing it..." Asakawa Ritsu's pale face has a slight blush, "And you She looks very similar to me, isn't it predestined for us to be destined?"

"Master Lu, in fact, before I came here, I never thought that there is another person who looks so similar to me in this world. Maybe it is really fate. If you don't dislike it, we can make friends!" Fang Shaoyan He smiled and held out his hand to him.

Asakawa Ritsu looked flattered, "Really...do you really want to make friends with me?"

"Of course!"

Ritsu Asakawa stretched out his hand, held Fang Shaoyan's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Since I was young, because of my weak health, my father never let me have contact with outsiders. You are my first friend!"

"Uh..." Looking at the other party's shining eyes, Fang Shaoyan felt a little guilty. He was leaving here tonight, maybe... he would never meet this person again!The word "friend" will probably only become his memory!

"Master Lu, it's getting late, shouldn't it be time to go back?" Fang Shaoyan looked at the fading sunlight outside the window, and said to the young man sitting in a wheelchair in front of him.

Asakawa Ritsu was a little disappointed, "Are you in such a hurry to drive me away?"

"No, no! I didn't mean that! It's just that it's past five o'clock, Master Lu, you have been out for so long, if the servant who serves you can't find you, I'm afraid you should be in a hurry!" Fang Shaoyan hurriedly explained.

"That's right..." Ritsu Asakawa laughed at himself, then turned the wheelchair and walked out the door, "It was a pleasure chatting with you. If I have a chance tomorrow, I will come again!"

Tomorrow, he might not be here long ago...

"Master Lu, let me see you off!" Fang Shaoyan walked over and pushed the wheelchair, thinking, before leaving here, let's help people to the end.

"Thank you!"

Fang Shaoyan pushed Asakawa out of the door, and the old Taoist priest and Xixi who were hiding under the bed got out.

"It's so dangerous! I was almost discovered!" The old Taoist stomped his feet and shook off a layer of dust on his body. "Who is that man? Why is he so similar to that kid Zhang, like a brother..."

Sisi shook her head, "How do I know?"

The old Taoist rubbed his chin, and said to himself: "Could it be that the kid surnamed Fang is actually a foreigner, suddenly found a brother who had been lost for many years, and suddenly discovered his own life experience, what a dramatic change it is Ah..." Xixi frowned, and couldn't help but said, "Old man, have you watched too many bloody dramas?"

Fang Shaoyan pushed Ritsu Asakawa out, then he stopped and asked, "Master Lu, where do you live?" Ritsu Asakawa lowered his head, and a smile of unknown meaning suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I think First go to the place where my mother lives, I haven’t been home for a long time, I’m afraid it’s already full of dust, I want to clean it!”

"Master Lu is really a good and filial boy!" Fang Shaoyan asked again, "Then... where does your mother live?", "My mother lives far away, and... because no one lives there for a long time Because, it's a bit gloomy, and most people are afraid of it, so I'd better go alone..."

"What are you talking about, Young Master Lu! I'm a big man anyway, and I'm still afraid that things made out of nothing will fail? Since I said I would send you off, I will definitely send you somewhere!"

"In this case, thank you first!" Ritsu Asakawa pointed to the road on the left, and said, "Go straight along here, then turn right along the garden, and then walk a few hundred meters to arrive..."

Fang Shaoyan pushed him along the route Asakawa Ritsu said for half an hour, saw a small garden, then turned to the right, and a gust of cold wind blew, making him shiver uncontrollably.

"Hiss... It seems to be a little cold here..." Fang Shaoyan tightened his clothes and asked, "Master Lu, you wear so little, why don't you go back and get a suit before you come here?"

"No need, we've come here, it's a waste of time to go back."

Fang Shaoyan wondered, this Ritsu Asakawa is so weak, can he see the wind?In case of falling ill, it is his responsibility.

"Today's weather is good..." Ritsu Asakawa suddenly said a nonsensical remark, which made Fang Shaoyan a little confused.The sun is almost setting, and the wind is blowing. How can this kind of weather be good?

A deserted yard appeared in front of me, with weeds growing on the fence gate, and a Chinese-style courtyard appeared in front of me.

"Is it here?" Fang Shaoyan asked.

"Yes."

Ritsu Asakawa got off the wheelchair, pushed open the rusty iron door, and bursts of damp smell rushed towards him.

This is a traditional Chinese-style building. The courtyard is full of flowers and plants. Maybe it is because someone takes care of it. Except for the muddy ground, everything here looks so neat.

Asakawa went to the small building, took out a key from his pocket, opened the door, turned around and said to Fang Shaoyan: "Mr. Fang, I want to clean this place, you can leave..."

Fang Shaoyan looked up at the building in front of him and asked, "How can you clean such a big room by yourself?"

"En." Asakawa Ritsu showed a happy smile on his face, "This is the place where my mother lived, and it is my pleasure to clean this place myself..."

Fang Shaoyan saw him struggling to mop the floor with a mop, and couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "How long are you going to clean like this, let me help you..."

Fang Shaoyan walked into the room, picked up a broom and swept all the dust off the living room floor on the first floor, and then picked up a mop to mop the floor, while Ritsu Asakawa took a feather duster to clean up the dust in other places.

The things in this room are very simple, a sofa in the living room, a mahogany table, and some decorative ornaments.Fang Shaoyan felt that Ritsu Asakawa's mother must be a person who likes to be quiet, as he could tell from the few things placed here.

After cleaning the first floor, Ritsu Asakawa planned to clean the bedroom on the second floor. Unexpectedly, when he was going up the stairs, his feet suddenly slipped, he screamed, and fell down the stairs.

"Master Lu!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Fang Shaoyan hurried forward to catch him, so as not to make the young man fall directly to the ground. Even so, Asakawa Ritsu still sprained his foot.

Seeing the young man sitting on the ground twitching non-stop, Fang Shaoyan hurriedly helped him to the sofa, took off his slippers, and saw Asakawa Ritsu's feet were swollen like steamed buns, Fang Shaoyan hurriedly brought a towel, He got some hot water to apply on him, and said, "Master Lu, are you... all right?"

Asakawa Ritsuko nodded, his smooth forehead was covered with sweat, "This pain...is nothing to me! I have experienced things more painful than this..."

Fang Shaoyan felt distressed inexplicably, and after covering him with a towel, he asked, "I wonder if there is any medicine for bruises here?"

Fang Shaoyan found that although this house has not been lived in for a long time, there are many things that should be used in daily life, such as towels, hot water, etc. can be found, and some emergency medicines are not kept.

Ritsu Asakawa shook his head, "No... After all, I didn't know I would fall from upstairs..."

"Let me go and look for it!" Fang Shaoyan changed the towel on his feet and said, "Your sprain is very serious. If you don't treat it in time, with your physique, it is very likely that you will get the root cause of the disease in the future. I really can't find it." If you arrive, I will send you back immediately!"

Fang Shaoyan put Asakawa Ritsu on the sofa, then turned around on the first floor, but found no wound medicine, and then went straight to the second floor, ignoring the disrespect to the deceased, and directly broke into the bedroom on the second floor.

Because the bedroom hadn't had time to be cleaned, as soon as the door was opened, a large cloud of dust came in.

Fang Shaoyan waved his hand in front of his nose, looking at the bedroom.

Like the living room downstairs, Ritsu Asakawa's mother's bedroom is also very simple, except for a bed, a writing desk, and a guzheng placed on the desk.

Standing in the bedroom, Fang Shaoyan suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Thinking of Asakawa who was injured downstairs, Fang Shaoyan didn't care to delay, and hurriedly looked around to see if there was any wound medicine here, even if he could find a plaster, it would be good.

But Fang Shaoyan searched for a long time, but couldn't find anything useful, so he sighed, it seemed that he could only send Ritsu Asakawa back.

However, when he was about to leave, his right hand suddenly turned over something on the desk and fell to the ground.

Fang Shaoyan looked down and saw that it was a photo album.

Fang Shaoyan hurriedly picked up the photo album that fell on the floor. He didn't want to check other people's privacy, but he didn't know what was going on.

Gently flipping through the photo album with his right hand, he only glanced at it. Fang Shaoyan seemed to be frozen, his eyes were round.
