"Yo." A woman's shrill voice came from above, "Is this a star?"

"Are there any stars coming to our place?" Another woman followed her down.

"So handsome." The woman stood condescendingly on the stairs and looked at them, "Looking for someone?"

Lu Yang frowned and walked around without saying a word.

"Oh, good looks make you look down on people, don't you?" The woman with a high-pitched voice deliberately stood in the middle of the corridor, blocking the only upward exit.

"Get out of the way." Qi Shao frowned and walked up.

Seeing that the man was standing lower than her and two stairs taller than her, the woman felt a little guilty, and brushed her hair embarrassingly: "Let me go, he is so tall."

Qi Shao stared at her, and the woman took a few steps back in fright when she looked at him.

After the woman opened the door and went into the next room, Qi Shao went upstairs with Lu Yang in his arms, tilted his head and asked softly, "Are you all right?"

"I've seen a lot." Lu Yang frowned not because of this, but because he was worried about what happened to the old man. Just now the woman said that she hadn't been out for a few days and nights.

Going upstairs is the fifth floor, and room 506 is the room on the left.

This room was the only one they passed through so many rooms without piles of things in front of the door.

It's very clean, but it doesn't look very popular. The front door is all gray, and the white floor tiles are not only cracked, but also probably faded, with a matte finish.

Lu Yang stared at the door for a while, trying to hear the sound inside, but the room was obviously very quiet, and there was no sound coming out.

Qi Shao stood behind him without saying a word, and put his hand on the back of his neck and squeezed it lightly.

Lu Yang looked back at him, turned back a little nervously, raised his hand and knocked on the door hesitantly.

He knocked three times, his hands trembling when he put them down.

After ten seconds, Lu Yang didn't hear any movement except his own excessive heartbeat.

"I'll knock." Qi Shao reached out and knocked heavily on the door three times, "Is anyone there?"

There was still no response in the room, Lu Yang tilted his head and glanced at him, frowning: "What should I do?"

"It's okay." Qi Shao patted him on the back, then reached out and knocked a few more times.

There was no response in the room, and the woman downstairs who spoke sharply just ran up suddenly: "Don't knock, you two came to look for him, and he won't open the door."

"What's wrong with him?" Lu Yang asked anxiously.

"It's nothing, I guess I'm crazy." The woman had a sneer on her face, "I'm crazy, I lived here for more than a month, and I went out four times, and I went out at night every day, and I didn't see him say anything. After all, he is not only insane but also dumb."

"Can you shout it out?" Qi Shao looked at the expression on the woman's face and didn't know if it was showing off or something.

"I can! I'm his landlord, how can he refuse me?" The woman said boldly, then shrank her neck invisibly before shouting, "You're out of your mind! Come out and pay the money." !"

Lu Yang was taken aback by her suddenly raised voice, and when he realized it, he only saw her back running down the stairs quickly.

Then he heard the sound of footsteps coming from the room, it was the kind of sound of dragging on the road without putting on shoes properly.

Lu Yang became nervous in an instant. He was very familiar with the old man's way of walking. Whether he was wearing leather shoes, cloth shoes, or slippers, the old man would always walk like this, slow and procrastinated.

When the door was opened, Lu Yang even stepped back a few steps, lowering his head and not daring to look forward.

"Yangyang...?" The man's voice carried a weird and difficult sound that he hadn't spoken for a long time.

Lu Yang clenched his fists hanging by his legs, and when he heard this voice and the familiar breath rushing towards his face, his eyes turned red instantly.

"You...how did you... find it here..." The man's voice was extremely hoarse, as if there were a handful of sand in his throat.

"You are Lu Xu?" Qi Shao looked up at the gray-haired old man with wrinkles and age spots on his face, then lowered his head to grab Lu Yang's clenched fist, one finger, one finger. Carefully break it open for him.

Lu Xu looked at Lu Yang who was almost taller than him standing in front of him, with tears in his eyes, he wanted to reach out and touch this child who didn't know when he had grown up: "Come in first."

Lu Yang came in and took a look at the whole house. It was a very ordinary layout, with a living room and a bedroom. The rooms were neat and clean.

It's so meticulous that it seems that no one has lived here, or that it doesn't leave any traces when it's convenient to leave.

Lu Xu waved to Lu Yang, motioning for them to sit on the sofa.

Lu Yang looked at him, his heart felt as if the gate of a flood dam that had been suppressed for several years had opened, and the uncontrollable emotions rushed out, but he tried his best to hold back.

"Are you...my dad?" Lu Yang asked with great difficulty, suppressing the choking in his throat.

Lu Xu frowned and said nothing, stared at his red eye sockets for a while, raised his hand to touch his head, but finally put it down, bent down and took the paper and pen from the coffee table.

- how did you find me

Lu Yang looked at the words written on the white paper, and frowned at him: "Why don't you speak?"

Lu Xu held up the white paper without moving, and then tapped on it with a pen.

"..." Lu Yang knew his temper, so he could only briefly explain how they found him.

After hearing this, Lu Xu's expression was a little bad, and he lowered his head and quickly began to write on the white paper.

- what are you looking for me for?

"I know you are looking for my mother." Lu Yang stared at him, "We can look for it together."

Lu Xu's face turned even darker, and he reached out and patted the sofa violently.

He lowered his head and began to write on the white paper.

-no!You are not allowed to go!

"I know what you're worried about. I'm fine. I have two tails. I can... I can help... I can... I..."

Lu Xu slapped hard on the sofa a few times, interrupting his speech, and then anxiously began to write on the paper.

- you are not allowed to go!Just no!

"Why?" Lu Yang frowned, "I can..."

"Wait a minute, don't get excited." Qi Shao patted his head, "I'll talk to him, you go drink some water, your voice is hoarse."

Lu Xu sized up Qi Shao, then pointed to the door of the bedroom, signaling Lu Yang to go in and drink water.

Lu Yang went into the bedroom and turned around. As expected, he saw a big black mountaineering bag at the end of the bed.

This is the habit of the old man. When they were together before, he had a black bag and the old man had a black bag. If there was any situation, he would run away with it.

There is a desk in the bedroom and a case of mineral water under the desk.

He went over and took a bottle and unscrewed it and drank it slowly.

He didn't know what Qi Shao would say to the old man, but he knew Qi Shao's intention to send him over.

After drinking half a bottle of water, Lu Yang estimated the time and put the water bottle down.

The atmosphere in the living room was good, the old man was very quiet, and he waved to him as he watched him come out.

Lu Yang walked over and stood and looked at him without sitting down: "I can help."

Lu Xu nodded, then pointed to the sofa.

Lu Yang glanced at Qi Shao, and sat down at ease after seeing his eyes.

-Who is he and why is he helping you?Lu Xu held up a white paper and asked Lu Yang.

"I'm his very good friend." Qi Shao smiled, "You don't have to worry about this."

-friend?

The question mark behind the word "friend" written by Lu Xu is very thick and heavy, obviously with disbelief.

What friends can do these things for irrelevant people, such life-threatening things.

His experience of living for decades told him that this kind of person either has other plans or is insane.

But this man's clothes are neat, he looks like a dog, and his words are quite convincing. He doesn't look sick, so there is only a little left.

There are other plans.

"No." Lu Yang turned his head to look at Qi Shao's half-held hand, then turned his head to look at the old man, then stretched out his hand towards Qi Shao's hand, the palms touched, and then slowly fingertips Closed together.

It looks like ten fingers are clasped tightly, and the hands are tightly stitched together, conveying the warmth between each other and some courage that Lu Yang can grasp.

Lu Xu frowned and watched his movements. Just as he was about to write something on the pen and paper, he heard Lu Yang's voice.

"Not a friend." Lu Yang squeezed Qi Shao's hand, which was obviously bigger than his, "He is the most important person to me, very important."

Lu Xu's face froze, he didn't even know when the pen in his hand dropped to the floor.
