he is afraid, he pretends

From Wu Luming's house to the town center of the town, it takes 10 minutes by bus.

Today's snow is much smaller than the previous few days.

As the bus approached the center of the town, the number of people on both sides of the road visibly increased.

Compared with sparsely populated small villages, the town center is obviously much more commercialized.

The place where the bus stopped happened to be at the entrance of a shopping mall, and the streets and alleys near the shopping mall were decorated with decorations. It was just a little dark, and the decorations on both sides of the street were lit up sporadically, giving people a glimpse of the bright lights at night.

As soon as the two of them got out of the car, Wen Siyuan heard a shout not far away: "Teacher Wen, here!"

He looked in the direction of the voice, and saw three people wearing black down jackets of the same style waving at him.

The three boys usually belonged to the category with a lot of friends in the class, so they met Wu Luming, whom they met for the first time, who was not a student at all. After greeting each other warmly, they began to talk about their plans for tonight.

"It's only good at night here. It's not dark enough now. We just talked about it and went to see a movie. It's almost time. Teacher Wen, what do you think?"

The tallest boy standing in the middle suggested that after he finished asking Wen Siyuan, he turned to look at Wu Luming and asked, "Student Wu, what do you think?"

Wen Siyuan didn't have much interest in most leisure activities, so he didn't express his opinion right away, and followed the tall man to look at Wu Luming.

Under the watchful eyes of several people, Wu Luming nodded.

"Then it's decided like this. We just watched it. There are no particularly good movies in the cinema recently. It just so happens that a movie cafe has opened nearby. A while ago there was a movie with a high rating abroad. It just so happens that the movie cafe has it. You guys If we think it’s okay, let’s pick one and go to that movie cafe to watch.”

The tall boy swiped his phone while talking, and after a while, he raised the phone to Wu Luming and Wen Siyuan, and showed them the photos of Yingca: "Yingca looks like this, the environment inside is new, we just called I asked, and there happened to be a room for 5-6 people still vacant.”

The room in the photo is sci-fi themed. There are three three-seater sofas facing the screen, and there is a round table in the middle of the sofa.

Wen Siyuan and Wu Luming had no objections, so they followed the three of them to the movie cafe near the shopping mall.

On the way there, the three boys talked to each other about the activities in the town center at night. When talking about the New Year’s Eve fireworks at zero o’clock, all three of them expressed that they must watch it together. expect.

The movie the tall boy said is a foreign thriller and suspense film. The story revolves around a serial murder case. At the beginning of the film, a work-study male high school student came home from work late at night and was stunned by a follower.

The moment the male high school student was knocked out, the screen went black.

When the screen was turned on again, the male high school student with his head covered in blood was dragged slowly on the ground by his legs with two hands, and finally dragged into a dark alley.

Thriller films abroad have always been bold, and there are not many bloody scenes that should be there.

The heating in the movie cafe was fully turned on, and several people took off their coats one after another after entering the room.

The three boys shared the two outer sofas, and Wu Luming and Wen Siyuan sat together on the inner one.

The double sofa in a movie cafe is not much different from the couple seat in a movie theater, but the boundary between them is not so clear. Although two people cannot touch each other when they sit together, as long as one of them makes a movement, even if it is very small, the other is also very close. It's hard not to notice.

Wen Siyuan wasn't very interested in this kind of movies, so he couldn't say he was fascinated by watching them, so after the movie was played for a while, he took in all the subtle anomalies of the people around him.

The first time was when the male high school student in the movie was dragged on the ground covered in blood, Wen Siyuan caught a glimpse of Wu Luming leaning back beside him from the corner of his eyes.

The second time was when the police found the body, and the camera showed a close-up of the bloody dismembered body. At that time, there was no sound in the movie, and the whole viewing room was silent. For a short period of time, he couldn't even catch Wu Luming's breathing.

When the bloody scene appeared for the third time, from the corner of the eye, Wen Siyuan caught another glimpse of the rigid body of the person beside him, and finally Wen Siyuan turned his face slightly to the side and looked at Wu Luming.

The dim light of the movie blurred Wu Luming's entire outline. One-third of his small face was buried in the turtleneck sweater, his brows were slightly frowned, and there was a suppressed emotion in his eyes staring at the movie screen.

At this moment, there was a sudden scream in the movie, followed by the muffled sound of fists hitting the flesh.

Wen Siyuan turned his head to look at the screen again because of the sudden loud noise.

On the screen, a young man is being pressed to the ground by a man wearing a black mask.

The masked man smashed the young man's face hard on the ground with one punch after another, until the young man's face was covered with blood, not only did not stop, but even let out a joyful laugh.

At the moment when the laughter sounded, Wen Siyuan suddenly felt the sofa beside him lighten, he caught a glimpse of Wu Luming getting up from the corner of his eyes, and then turned his head to look at Wu Luming again.

Wu Luming seemed to want to leave directly, because he took a step directly after getting up.

But soon he stopped again, as if he had noticed Wen Siyuan's gaze.

He bowed his head and whispered to Wen Siyuan, "I'm going to the bathroom", before walking away again.

After Wu Luming left, he didn't come back for more than ten minutes.

Wen Siyuan waited for another five or six minutes, but still hadn't found anyone, so he got up and followed out of the viewing room.

He wasn't sure if Wu Luming really went to the bathroom, but he followed the signs and found Yingca's bathroom first.

Probably because it was newly opened, the bathroom of Yingcai was cleaned very cleanly, and there was still incense placed at the door, and when you approached, a scent penetrated into your nostrils.

What followed the scent was a burst of violent vomiting.

The door of the bathroom was half open. Standing at the door and looking in, the first thing you could see was the sink in the bathroom.

At this moment, in front of the sink, Wu Luming, who was wearing a red turtleneck sweater, was grabbing the collar with one hand, bending over and throwing up in front of the sink.

However, no matter how hard he vomited, he never spit out anything.

At this time, it had been more than 10 minutes since Wu Luming left the viewing room.

Under the incandescent light in the bathroom, Wu Luming's already pale face was even more bloodless than usual, there were tears in the corners of his eyes, and the same wet eyelashes were trembling non-stop.

Standing at the door, Wen Siyuan rarely reacted immediately to think of the best solution to solve a problem calmly.

He didn't quite know the reason, maybe it was because he felt in his heart that Wu Luming probably vomited here because he was afraid of horror movies, but not all.

It's not all the other reasons behind, he thinks it's not something he can ask casually.

What finally broke the deadlock was the appearance of a stranger.

"Hello, can you let me go?"

A male voice sounded behind Wen Siyuan, Wen Siyuan subconsciously stepped back to the side, and Wu Luming, who was inside the door, also seemed to be frightened, stopped vomiting and straightened up to look at the door.

His eyes were very red, and there were drops of water hanging from his mouth after rinsing.

The stranger at the door looked at the two of them strangely, and without saying anything, went into a certain cubicle in the bathroom.

It seemed that the violent vomiting had exhausted his energy, Wu Luming stood there staring at Wen Siyuan for a long time, then he seemed to finally recognize Wen Siyuan, bent down, washed his face and rinsed his mouth several times, He went out and called out.

"Brother Yuan." The voice was hoarse.

Wen Siyuan inexplicably remembered the first time Wu Luming called him Brother Yuan.

It was the afternoon when Wu Luming woke up after falling asleep while reading a book together.

At that time, the sky was completely dark, and there was only a lamp in the room.

With the help of the light at hand, Wen Siyuan saw half of the travel notes in his hand, and suddenly felt a slight itch on his neck.

Reflexively, he raised his hand to touch his neck, touched his soft hair, only to realize that it was Wu Luming who woke up.

Not even fully awake.

The boy was obviously still in a daze, and the head resting on his shoulder unconsciously rubbed against his neck twice before he slowly raised his head, half-closed his eyes and stared at him unresponsively.

Like trying to figure out who he is.

It's like trying to figure out whether it's a dream or reality.

Wu Luming, who just woke up and was confused, didn't look like his usual bland appearance. There were a little red marks on his fair face, and the hat was rubbed back and covered half of his head. His soft hair Because of the one that Wen Siyuan grabbed by mistake just now, there will be a handful of them on the top of his head, curling up messily, adding a bit of childishness to his whole body.

After a while, he seemed to have finally recognized who Wen Siyuan was, and called softly, "Brother?"

Wu Luming called him brother at that time.

It's a very unfamiliar and polite address, and anyone who changes it can have the same address.

Wen Siyuan looked at Wu Luming's rare dazed look in front of him, and didn't respond for a while.

What Wen Siyuan didn't expect was that after a while, Wu Luming suddenly added another word, and called him softly and confused again: "Brother Yuan...?"

When pronouncing the word Yuan, the tongue would lightly touch the palate, and Wu Luming pronounced it in a daze, with a softness in his voice that would never appear in normal times.

The unfamiliar address and the completely different tone of speaking made Wen Siyuan look at Wu Luming for a long time and couldn't recover.

The desk lamp has not been charged for a few days, and it has been working continuously for an hour, and the light at this meeting can only be barely enough for people to see.

The weak and soft light shone on the boy who was wrapped in a blanket, casting the boy's small body into a big shadow, which was gathered on the bed.

Wen Siyuan's eyes fell on the boy for a while, and finally he agreed aloud, accepting the title.

Later, Wu Luming came to his senses completely, suppressed the fleeting childishness in his body, and returned to his usual indifferent appearance.

But this temporarily exported title has been retained.

Wen Siyuan withdrew his thoughts, looked at Wu Luming who had already walked in front of him, thought for a moment, and asked, "Can't watch horror movies?"

Wu Luming's eyes were red and watery, looking back at him, he opened his mouth to him, and in the end he just said "hmm".

"You wait for me here, I'll go back and tell them, let's go first."

Wu Luming was taken aback for a moment, and watched Wen Siyuan turn around before reacting, and quickly said: "No, a movie isn't long, I'll just wait outside for you to finish watching."

Wen Siyuan stopped and looked at him.

"You've been throwing up since you came out?"

Wu Luming remained silent and did not respond.

Wen Siyuan followed in silence for a while, and then said again: "Hand."

Wu Luming reacted for a while, and then slowly raised his hand with some doubts.

The next second, his hand was suddenly wrapped in a big warm hand.

He blinked in a daze, stared at Wen Siyuan's hand that wrapped his whole hand for a while, and then slowly raised his head to look at Wen Siyuan.

Unexpectedly, what he saw was Wen Siyuan's rare frown.

Wen Siyuan frowned because Wu Luming's hands were unbelievably cold.

Obviously the entire movie cafe has heating, but Wu Luming's hand seemed to have just been pulled out after being buried in the snow for a long time.

After Wen Siyuan let go of Wu Luming's hand, he didn't say anything else, leaving a sentence of "wait for me here", and turned back to the viewing room.

Soon he came out of the viewing room, holding Wu Luming's coat and scarf.

He walked back to Wu Luming, and handed them to Wu Luming one by one. After watching the people get dressed, he said again: "Let's go."

Wen Siyuan took two steps, and Wu Luming followed him belatedly.

He walked up to Wen Siyuan and asked aloud, "Where are we going?"

Wen Siyuan went to the front desk to settle the fee for the viewing room, and didn't answer, but asked Wu Luming instead: "Is there any place you want to go?"

Wu Luming shook his head slowly.

"Go home." Wen Siyuan replied this time.

"Didn't you say it's New Year's Eve?" Wu Luming asked softly.

"You want to celebrate the new year?" Wen Siyuan asked again.

Wu Luming didn't say whether he wanted it or not, but just looked at Wen Siyuan quietly.

Wen Siyuan met Wu Luming's gaze for a while, but didn't answer immediately, but stayed on Wu Luming's red eyes for a long time, then took a step forward, and raised his hand to touch Wu Luming's forehead.

After feeling that the temperature was normal, he raised his hand to pull the hat to the extent that it could cover the ears for Wu Luming, and said again: "Do you still feel sick?"

Wu Luming shook his head slowly.

"Then let's go out for a stroll first." Wen Siyuan said.
