[Idol trainee] please pick me up

The smoked wind dyes the moon, and the night is still young.

On a leisurely summer night, Pu Yuzhen and Chen Linong lay on the grass and looked at the stars.

Pu Yuzhen's eyes can't see how beautiful the starry sky is now, it's as if through an old filter, even the twinkling stars are extremely blurred in his eyes.

But splicing it with the night sky in my mind eight years later, it suddenly makes people yearn for the future.

"Well, it would be great if I could look at the night sky in a daze like this in the future." He stretched out his hand towards the night sky, which was close at hand but out of reach.

"That's impossible. When I become an adult, I have to do all kinds of things. I'm very tired every day. I don't have time or mood to lie here in a daze." However, the little Nongnong is more grown-up than adults. , do not expect such a future at all.

The fact is true, even the rare leisure of this night is because of the net market and cannot be exchanged for it - the precocious and poor children are not happy about this, because the family's income will be lost for another night of.

So Pu Yuzhen, who couldn't see him sighing and sitting in a daze at the desk, pulled the child out to look at the stars.Although he couldn't see it himself, lying on the grass or the playground in summer, listening to insects singing and looking at the stars, is a precious memory of many people's childhood or adolescence.

"It's better for children to have dreams, besides..."

"what?"

Although the work is very busy and life is very difficult, we did watch the night sky together in such a leisurely way, after you grow up.

"It's nothing... Anyway, it's better for a child to look like a child." Pu Yuzhen turned her head and rumpled the child's hair while grinning heartlessly.In this way, the two played around for a while, and the child, who was finally exhausted, nestled on his chest and continued to look at the stars and the moon.

What age should do what age? Although it is forced by livelihood, but such a young child has to imitate the thinking mode of adults, and even fantasies have to be suppressed in the deepest part of the heart, it is really pitiful.

As Pu Yuzhen thought about it, his chin lightly rubbed against the child's hair.

Although he was by his side, the child couldn't feel his temperature, his breathing, or his heartbeat, so he held his arm a little uneasy to confirm that this person was indeed still there.

There was no words for a while, only the sounds of insects, frogs, water and wind were left around.

Pu Yuzhen knew that in the near future, this piece of grass would be swallowed up by the surrounding night market, and then such sounds would no longer be heard.But just for now, enjoy the starry sky.

He hummed a song in a low voice and patted the child's back, originally intending it to be a lullaby for summer night, but Chen Linong, who was already drowsy in his arms, suddenly woke up.

"What song is brother singing? It's so nice." The child got up from him and asked while hugging his neck.

"You'll know later." He pressed against the child's forehead, shook his head and pushed it up, his thick and long eyelashes were almost entangled with Xiao Nong Nong's.

Because it is a song of the future, I can't tell you now.

"I also want to be a singer in the future... I sing so well like my brother." The child was a little excited and a little shy, and buried his face in his shoulder and said in a low voice.

"Well, yes, you will be a really good singer in the future. No matter in Taiwan, mainland China or abroad, everyone has heard your songs."

This is the future I see, not some words to coax children.

"Really, is this brother wanting to fulfill my wish!"

Pu Yuzhen sat up, the child was startled in his arms, thumped twice, and was grabbed by the young man so that he did not fall in panic.Although the lights were still far away and the front was still dim, Pu Yuzhen knew that he should be blushing.

"No, you realized your wish by relying on yourself, without relying on anyone, you did it yourself." So Nong Nong, it's really amazing, you have to believe that you can do it.Pu Yuzhen looked into the child's eyes and answered every word seriously.

"I, I'm so good too..." The little nongnong sat beside him, lowered his head and blushed, and quietly covered the big hand of Pu Yuzhen propped up beside him with his small hand, as if he wanted to touch his singing skills. The ability is the same.

But the hands of a nine-year-old child are still too small, how can it be completely covered?Pu Yuzhen's hand feels like it is separated by an invisible barrier.

It has shape and mass, but it can't feel the temperature of the human body as if it has no entity.The child pursed his mouth, still a little disappointed in his heart.

I thought that I would spend a period of childhood with my children in peace of mind, and then one day I was suddenly reminded of black and white impermanence or angels and devils to the world after death.Although getting along with the children makes him feel more and more reluctant to part with the separation that may come at any time, but Pu Yuzhen has long been mentally prepared to welcome this day.

However, such a slightly unnerving but extremely warm and peaceful daily life was completely disrupted when a second person who could see Pu Yuzhen appeared.

"You can see me too?" The girl in front of the spinning paper pinwheel booth on the street corner and Pu Yuzhen exclaimed at the same time.

"Ah, you are also a 'Wishing Star'."

After confirming that the other party could indeed see her, the girl looked him up and down, and said in a very sure tone.

"'Wishing Star'?" Pu Yuzhen was confused.

"That's what the child called me... that is, someone who specializes in fulfilling other people's wishes."

Pu Yuzhen then learned from her that the so-called wishing star, that is, the elf in the mouth of the child, is actually an existence that can really fulfill the wish of the child.

Without the wishes of the children, they cannot be liberated.

The so-called liberation is death.No, it should be a more terrifying ending than death, that is, disappearing completely.After fulfilling the wishes of the children, they will disappear like stars in an instant without the meaning of existence. From then on, there will be no traces of their existence in the world, no matter in the past, in the future or in the present.

The girl has seen the disappearance of several companions, so it can be said that she is very familiar with the process.

They all came here from the past or the future, but from ancient times to the present, little elves like them have no hope of returning to their own time - after all, they have been wandering in the cracks of time and space for too long to find way back.

But the girl still wants to be relieved - even though the world is so prosperous, she can't see, touch, or smell it, and everything in this world seems to have nothing to do with her.These elves will wander alone in the world, with no connection to the world except the only child who can see themselves.

But the girl also has her own troubles. She has grown from a small child to a tall and straight young man. The child she guards has been slow to make a wish, and has been slow to give her a final sentence. It seems that a huge ambition and wish is brewing. This made her no longer like such a young man, and by the way, she no longer liked this kind of world—she wanted to be freed as soon as possible.

Pu Yuzhen was also shaken, but because of other reasons: he didn't want to and couldn't accompany Chen Linong to spend his whole life.

His existence made Chen Linong have to carefully switch between other people's daily life and his own. The communication between children and normal human society has decreased, which is definitely not a good thing.What's more, he, who is of no benefit to the child's life, will also witness all the sufferings of the child's future life, but he will be unable to help. He will experience his own powerlessness again and again, and he wants to escape.

"Nongnong, what is your wish?"

After knowing that he could really fulfill the child's wish, he hesitated for several days. After countless battles between heaven and man, he still took the initiative to ask such a question.

The little Chen Linong was taken aback by his sudden question, and then bit his lower lip as if he sensed something very keenly, his eyes seemed to be filled with mist.

"Brother...are you starting to hate me?" In fact, what I want to ask is not hate, but boredom, but there are no accurate words in the child's vocabulary to express it.

"Of course not, it's just... just asking casually, but you have to think carefully before answering me!" There is only one chance to make a wish, don't waste it on things that are not worth it.He hurried to appease, but for the first time he was resisted by the child.

"Then I won't make a wish. I don't want to make a wish. If I make a wish, my brother will leave and never come back again, right?" the child said angrily.

His Nongnong is indeed the smartest in the world.Whether it is now or in the future.

However, there is no reward for guessing correctly.Pu Yuzhen didn't know whether to smile bitterly or not.

If Chen Linong didn't make a wish, they could only consume each other.So in the endless chatting, Pu Yuzhen was finally willing to reveal a little bit of his own story—for example, he came from the future, for example, he also knew the smart and powerful big-sized Nongnong in the future.

He was still instigating and tempting the little Chen Linong to make a wish, but he only concealed one thing, that is, once he made a wish, he would disappear forever.

Although, for the little boy, there is no essential difference between the guess of "never see you again" and the fact of "disappearing forever".

A long time passed like this, and when he was about to forget, the girl who led him in finally appeared in front of him again, but this time it was to say goodbye—the girl was about to disappear.

"I want to tell you at the end, in fact, we can go back, we can go back to the original world—" The girl's body became translucent, with light penetrating through her thin body, her voice carried Crying, but they can't shed tears in their current state of either life or death. She cried and laughed, "Although my little boy has been a bear for so many years, he is indeed a gentle person..."

However, before he finished speaking, Pu Yuzhen witnessed the disappearance of the girl who was his companion—just like turning off the projector, the moment the golden light scattered, there was no trace of her existence in the world anymore.

Ah, sooner or later, he will face the same ending.He looked at the scene in front of him and blinked, but he also silently accepted the end.

go back?Compared with realizing the wish of the little boy, it seems not so important.

He had already made up his mind, but one day his child suddenly became enlightened and decided to make a wish.

"I've decided—I'm going to make a wish."

Pu Yuzhen was gratified that his children had finally figured it out, but also saddened by their imminent separation.

But as long as he is happy, no matter what kind of wish he makes, he will be happy.

Pu Yuzhen smiled and waited for his wish.

"I hope, brother can return to the original world."

Pu Yuzhen was stunned.

That's right.

It turns out that wanting to go back is such a simple thing.

Suddenly he understood what the girl meant by being able to go back, and his heart suddenly felt sore and aching as if he had been pinched by someone. He looked at the child who was only waist-high in front of him, and even felt an urge to cry when he was moved.

"Because my brother said that I will become a great singer and a great person in the future, and earn a lot of money... I don't want to rely on my wishes, I will work hard to achieve it," the child forced a smile while wiping tears Swear, "Since my brother met me when I grew up, then if I work hard to grow up, I will be able to meet my brother again."

"Yes, we will definitely meet again."

"Brother is leaving?" The child reached out to touch him, but it passed through Pu Yuzhen's fingers.

It's out of reach.

"Well, but I will wait for you in the future."

Pu Yuzhen's body has become more and more transparent, and he began to feel that his mind and body are rapidly weakening, like every dying person.But he touched the child's head with a warm smile, and said the lines of the hero in the first story told to children.

"I'll go right away, I'll run."

The boy's expression was about to cry, but after hearing his words, he showed an incomparably brilliant canine smile showing a whole row of white teeth, and responded by saying the girl's lines in the story.

Pu Yuzhen's body began to become translucent, the body was seen through the light, and the distance to disappear completely was only about one breath away.

In fact, he was very scared, afraid of disappearing forever, afraid of eternal darkness, afraid of the eternal "nothing", afraid of never seeing the child's cute smile again, but——he believed that the child's wish would be fulfilled by the world.So Pu Yuzhen winked at the child playfully, and gradually merged into the blurred white light.

The stardust was scattered, and there was no trace of his existence left in this world.

However, this is not the whole end of the story——

Just like someone who just woke up.Starting from the brain, his body resumed functioning, and his consciousness slowly returned.

The morning sun shines on his face through the mist, which is colorful.

He was stunned for a few minutes without being able to focus his eyes on the spot, and even reached out his hand to touch the light that seemed to have a substance, and Pu Yuzhen's consciousness returned to reality.

There are no little boys here, and it is not Kaohsiung now more than ten years ago.

However, there is a boy who has quietly grown into a boy that he can't see.

He turned his head to look at Chen Linong's face in front of him, and tears suddenly fell from his eyes unstoppably.

"What's the matter, brother?" Chen Linong put down the chopsticks in his hand in shock, and quickly handed him a tissue.

Pu Yuzhen wiped his eyes with a smile, there were still tears in the corners of his eyes.

"It's okay, the sun is too dazzling, it's coming."

He replied.

The author has something to say:

Although irrelevant, the song Mr. Park hummed was Please don'tgo by Joel Adams.

The story is based on the story of the eight-tailed cat mentioned before. It comes from "A Scary Story Every Night" I read when I was a child.
