One meter high

Yuan Yue had always been frank, but now that he was suddenly invited, he became timid, standing at the door of the bathroom, hesitantly daring to go in.

"Get out!" Zhu Qi had completely lost his patience, grabbed Yuan Yue by the collar and pulled him into the bathroom, turned around and turned on the shower to adjust the water temperature, and said viciously, "If you are sick, I won't waste money taking you to the hospital !"

Yuan Yue knew that he was caring about himself, and his heart warmed slightly, suddenly he felt that all this looking forward and backward was really boring.At this time, Zhu Qi had already adjusted the water temperature, and kicked Yuan Yue under the hot water to urge him to wash it quickly, while squatting on the bed, he took out a pack of cigarettes from the pile of crumpled and dirty clothes.

He leaned against the wall of the bathroom with a cigarette in his mouth, staring blankly at himself in the mirror.As the bathroom heated up, the mirror was gradually covered with mist, but he didn't look away.

"Why don't you light a cigarette?" Yuan Yue took a shower as fast as he could, but at the same time, he didn't let go of Zhu Qi's strangeness.

"Quit." Zhu Qi said, "This bag is from someone else."

"Quit smoking to be full?"

Zhu Qi glanced at Yuan Yue speechlessly, then looked away in disgust: "Don't point that thing at me at me."

Yuan Yue had no choice but to turn around in aggrieved manner, but he didn't close his mouth: "Did you just want to drive him away on purpose? But Man Man is so obedient and likes you very much. If you talk to him carefully, he will definitely understand you .”

"Understood? Ha, what does he understand, a brat." Zhu Qi threw away the unlit cigarette, picked up their dirty clothes and threw them into the sink to soak, "The brat doesn't know What's good or bad, I just want to play with the people I like, do what I like to do, and don't think about anything else. Hanging around with me like this will only hurt him in the end."

In fact, Yuan Yue "just wants to play with the people he likes, do what he likes to do, and don't think about anything else", and for the time being, he really wants to hang out with these two brothers, so he is guilty and silent.

Silence helps to think. When Yuan Yue washed off the foam on his body, he already figured out that the reason why Zhu Qi would rather stay in the bathroom than go out was probably because he was worried that seeing the full of sadness would shake his determination to send him away.

"I think that although he is young, in terms of feelings, he is the same as an adult." Yuan Yue said slowly, "He must be very sad now, and he will feel like a drag on you. If he hadn't been born, didn't follow When you meet, you don't have to live so hard."

"Huh?" Zhu Qi sneered disdainfully, "You have too much drama inside, boy. That little fat man is probably asleep now, when you go out, remember to cover him with a quilt."

Yuan Yue put on the discounted T-shirt and ten-yuan underpants bought by Zhu Qi, and wanted to distinguish a few words, but saw Zhu Qi bent over and took off his underwear with his back turned to him.His face burned, and he ran away.

Zhu Qi walked into the hot water, but still felt uncomfortable.The wounds on my body are still aching, the feeling of fatigue is lingering, the skin is sticky from dirt, and it is very cold.

A shower is just not as good as a bath.Zhu Qi complained.Even though the water was very hot, it still didn't warm him up.

three days left.He silently counted the dates.Three days later, Man Man will be delivered to his new home.After that, Zhu Qi could resume a carefree life.He used to be a heavy smoker, but he hasn't smoked a single cigarette since he got full.

When the time comes, let's get a pack first.

Zhu Qi tried to squeeze a sliver of fresh expectation from his life, but failed.

An unlucky child who is a bit mischievous means a lot of silly words, complete dependence, motivation when he is tired, hope for the future, and a small ball of warmth in the severe cold of winter.

The hot water spilled down, and his cheeks were full of water.

At this moment, Zhu Qi heard the bathroom door being slammed open.He wiped his face angrily, and stared angrily at the daredevil who barged in with red eyes: "You boy, are you impatient to live?!"

"It's not good." Yuan Yue swallowed his saliva, moved his gaze aside, with a very serious expression, "Manman is gone."

Zhu Qi hurriedly put on his clothes without even drying himself.

The room in this hotel is not big, Zhu Qi only took a glance, and he was sure that there is no place to hide here.

"I'll ask the front desk." He said, and hurried out, even wearing slippers on his feet.Yuan Yue grabbed him: "I've already asked, and they said that about 10 minutes ago, a little boy said he was going to help his brother with shopping, and walked out through the gate."

"Then why don't you hurry up and look for it!" Zhu Qi roared angrily, almost treating Yuan Yue as the culprit who caused Man Man to run away.

Yuan Yue just looked at him quietly: "They saw that boy stopped a taxi, but didn't write down the license plate number."

Zhu Qi stopped dejectedly, with a dazed expression on his face.

He seemed to be thinking a lot, but in fact, he didn't think about anything, his mind went blank, the temperature and voices of the whole world were far away from him, and there was only one fact that was extremely cruel in front of him——

Full is lost.

He might be bullied, abducted, living on the street like Zhu Qi, approached by someone with malicious intentions, and then... Zhu Qi shuddered.Some thick black memories flooded up, and it seemed that I heard some screams and shouts with changed tunes in my ears. When I listened carefully, it was very similar to myself, and it seemed to be full.

"Bless you."

Suddenly, a voice broke into the eardrum.Zhu Qi raised his head and saw a pair of extremely clear eyes full of concern.

Yuan Yue put a warm hand on his shoulder, looking at him worriedly.

As if awakened from a nightmare, the strength returned to the limbs, Zhu Qi let out a disdainful "tss", shook his shoulders, and shook off Yuan Yue's hand.

"Don't worry." Yuan Yue didn't feel displeased at all, but just smiled comfortingly, "You forgot who I am? I'm the best at finding people. Do you have anything close-fitting?"

Zhu Qi's eyes lighted up briefly, but then dimmed again.

Their entire belongings were flooded, and their full snack jars were also lost in the sewage. Manman was not wet or changed his clothes just now.Reluctantly, he took out his dirty clothes and touched them from the beginning to the end, and finally found that the only person who was closer to Manman seemed to be himself.

"Can you use me?" Zhu Qi cautiously asked with the last sliver of hope.

"You are not his blood relative, the location will be very vague, there will be about two or three locations." Yuan Yue thought for a while, "Let's go find them separately and gather here."

A ray of light suddenly appeared in the desperate situation, Zhu Qi nodded vigorously, so obedient that Yuan Yue thought that the person in front of him was another person.

"Wait, if you find him, how will you notify me?" Zhu Qi asked.

Yuan Yue was holding Monkey's mobile phone before, but he had left it at the scene as an important evidence.However, Yuan Yue has many solutions to this problem.

So he took out the shopping receipt that Zhu Qi had just bought clothes, folded two paper cranes flexibly with his fingertips, and handed one to Zhu Qi: "If it flies by itself, it means I found it full; if you find it Well, just bring him back here, and I'll know."

The result was slightly better than Yuan Yue expected, he only calculated two positions, one for each of them was just right.After separating from Zhu Qi, he took a taxi with the money Zhu Qi gave him.Half an hour later, he saw small figures at a glance on a deserted construction site.

He was squatting on the edge of a small soil slope, crying.

Yuan Yue heaved a sigh of relief, notified Zhu Qi immediately, walked over quickly, and sat down next to Man Man.

Man Man stopped crying, and obviously moved to the side.Yuan Yue lacked this kind of experience in getting along with children. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of what to say, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "Your brother is dying of anxiety."

Man Man just lowered his head, not believing his words at all: "You're lying, brother Man Man is no longer needed."

"His attitude was not good just now, and I have already criticized him." Yuan Yue said, "He is also very reluctant to part with you. But...but there are always more important things."

"I want to be with my brother, that's the most important thing!" Manman clenched her fists tightly, and said louder, "Manman doesn't have parents, brother is Manman's parents. If your parents I don't want you anymore, I gave you to someone else, what will happen to you?!"

Yuan Yue tilted his head, as if remembering something: "When I was very young, my parents sent me to the mountains to learn magic, and I never saw them again for more than ten years."

"Ah!" Man Man was taken aback and stared blankly at him.

"I used to feel like you that my parents didn't want me anymore." Yuan Yue smiled, "But later, I didn't feel sad anymore."

"...Why?" He asked curiously.

"No reason, it's just because I grew up." Yuan Yue said, "There are some things that I didn't understand when I was young, not because I was stupid, but because I didn't experience much pain, so even a little thing like a fall , can’t help but cry.”

"Man Man won't cry because of a fall!" Man Man said proudly.

Yuan Yue's ears turned suspiciously red.Fortunately, Manman didn't pay attention, and just asked: "When I grow up, will everything get better? My brother said that I have to go to elementary school when I'm old, but I really don't want to be separated from my brother. Do you want to wait until I'm older? Now, you don’t need to go to school, so you can stay with your brother all the time?”

"Oh, that's not true." Yuan Yue said, "When you grow up, you will get used to it."

Looking at him in shock, he shouted in disbelief: "You lied! You lied!"

"I never lie." Yuan Yue said calmly, "When I first left my parents, it was said that I was hoarse from crying every day. But I got used to it later, and even forgot what they looked like. You will be the same as me."

"No, no, you're lying! Man Man will never forget brother!" Man Man burst into tears.

Yuan Yue was at a loss, and couldn't understand the reason for Manman's sudden burst of crying. He still felt that he had comforted him very well.Just as he was considering whether to leave with his hands full, the paper crane in Yuan Yue's trouser pocket suddenly flew out, swinging anxiously and drawing horizontal numbers "8" one by one in the air.

He was secretly taken aback, picked up the bag, and rushed to the road to stop the car.

He couldn't be more clear about the message conveyed by the movement of the paper crane——

Zhu Qi had an accident!
