Chu Ge obviously told the child to run away quickly, thinking that the child had already run home.Unexpectedly, he was still hiding at the entrance of this messy alley and never left.

The child was silent, with a pair of dark eyes staring at him on his palm-sized face.

Most of his body was still hidden behind the alley, only half of his face was exposed.After seeing the change in Chu Ge's eyes, he was both confused and surprised, as well as vaguely afraid and fearful.

Chu Ge suddenly came to his senses. The way he was now, with blood on his hands, was extremely miserable. Maybe he scared Lu Zhinan.

He thought for a while, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, the bad guys have been beaten away by my brother."

But Lu Zhinan didn't move.

Fragments of memory flashed through his mind. Chu Ge saw the scene where Lu Zhinan was ordered to beat and scold him at home. He smiled wryly, and suddenly realized that for Lu Zhinan, the most terrifying villain in life, the source of all pain and suffering, Probably his brother.

Thinking of this, Chu Ge didn't try to make himself more gentle and amiable, but said to Lu Zhinan: "I told you to go back, why are you still wandering outside, it's late at night, don't you know how to go home?"

This was Lu Zhibei's tone, indifferently with a little impatience, as if he was bored with this little brat dangling in front of him.

Usually, when he said this, Lu Zhinan would silently accept it, and like a dumb person, he would huddle in a corner of the room, trying to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible.

Chu Ge lowered his head, he waited for Lu Zhinan to go home first.

The previous idea probably couldn't be realized, so it's okay to disappear quietly, but now that Lu Zhinan saw him in such a mess, he had to calm down the child first, so as not to scare him into a psychological shadow.

Maybe it was just for a while, or maybe after a long time, there were footsteps at the entrance of the alley.

Then you should go back first.

Chu Ge breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about how he should go back later, Lu's house is not far from here, and it would take only a few minutes to walk back, maybe he should wait for Lu Zhinan to sleep before going back, and then realized something was wrong.

The footsteps were never far away, but they were getting closer.

Street lamps illuminated the long, narrow night.

A thick shadow cast under his feet.

Lu Zhinan was thin and small, like a hesitant little animal, squatting in front of him.

Following his eyes, Chu Ge saw the bloody and somewhat deformed steel pipe, and his heart skipped a beat.

He wanted to hide it but couldn't. After he broke the skull tattooed on his head, his head hurt and he unconsciously pulled out the steel pipe.

The child's lips were trembling, trembling, and suddenly he turned to look at him again.

Chu Ge subconsciously wanted to hide his right hand behind his back, and said, "Don't look."

But I heard the weak voice of a child, like a cat, almost being blown away in the wind.

"elder brother."

Chu Ge's heart felt as if hot water had been poured into her heart, and Sarah melted instantly.

Lu Zhinan was still squatting in front of him, his face was tense, as if he had encountered a huge problem.

"Hey, brother!"

Chu Ge looked at him, held the corner of his lips, and smiled with difficulty.

He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the top of Lu Zhinan's furry hair.

The child pursed his lips, subconsciously trying to avoid it, but in the end he didn't know what happened and didn't move.

The hair attached to the forehead is thin and soft, because it has not been well taken care of, and the ends of the hair are a little yellow.

The small half of the face was soft, but it was actually a little pale, and it was because the master's mood was tense.

Chu Ge didn't touch much, so he withdrew his hand. He looked at the kid who called him "brother", and his heart softened.

Those messy thoughts melted like ice cubes under the sun, leaving no shadows, only this little guy who tried hard to sullenly ran back and waited for him at the entrance of the alley.

"Your brother is almost dead because of you, why don't you smile at your brother?"

Lu Zhinan probably seldom saw his brother so intimate, his eyes widened for a moment, and he was overwhelmed.

The child's lips moved. He didn't know what to say. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally pulled the corners of his lips hard.

As a result, his eyebrows were frowned tightly, and he smiled as if he was crying.

Chu Ge couldn't hold back all of a sudden, and burst out laughing with a "puchi".

When Lu Zhinan smiled, his smile, which was uglier than crying, disappeared, and it became the same as before, with only a pair of eyes revealing a little emotion.

Chu Ge looked at his little angry face, and suddenly felt a little distressed in his heart.Among the memory fragments he received, Lu Zhinan was like a silent shadow, silent, never knowing what a smile was.

He stretched out his good hand towards Lu Zhinan, and said, "Come on, pull brother up."

Lu Zhinan looked at him hesitantly, and mumbled, "You... can you wake up?"

Chu Ge didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said helplessly, "The blood is from someone else's beating, not from your brother or me."

Lu Zhinan struggled for a while, then stretched out his small hand and placed it in Chu Ge's palm.

Originally, Chu Ge was just teasing him, but after resting for a while, he has regained some strength.Holding the small hand in the palm of his hand, he stood up with all his strength.

His head was a little dizzy, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them, he saw Lu Zhinan raised his head, with a little worry in his eyes.

Lu Zhinan whispered, "Where are you going?"

"Of course I'm going home."

The so-called "home" is the house left by Lu Zhibei's mother.

Whenever night falls, Yan Xiaoling dresses up beautifully and goes out to fool around. Her professional tradition is long, and she can get money faster than anything else with her legs. What's more, she has a face that is more beautiful than flowers, and a pair that is more beautiful than Huang Ying. Also mellow voice.

But now, she was gone, and she couldn't be more dead, leaving behind two children, probably the evidence that she had survived in this world.

Messy memories circled in his mind, and he led Chu Ge through the dark and narrow alleys.

In the evening of early autumn, the temperature has dropped and the wind is bleak.

The hand in the palm trembled a little, Chu Ge said: "Brother is here, don't be afraid."

He was actually a little scared in his heart, but he still held a child in his hand, so he couldn't show it.

Urban shanty towns have always been chaotic and noisy. Below the tube building is a messy garbage dump, and the tube building above is full of residents.

The voice-activated lights in the corridor are the same as the fruits on sale, which may be good or bad.There are several doors scattered at the end of the back and forth aisle, and the loosely tied garbage bags are thrown by the door. If someone accidentally steps on it, keeping it is a lottery.

Chu Ge's spirit was as tense as a string, he led Lu Zhinan, carefully bypassed various obstacles, and went up to the door of the house on the third floor.

He reached for his purse.

have to.

I don't know where the key went.

He was blocked by someone in a small alley earlier, and he smashed his head with a steel pipe. He reckoned that the key was thrown there at that time.

Unable to go home, he could only find the keys on the road. Thinking of the long, dark alley, Chu Ge's scalp felt numb.

But I can't help but look for it.

He discussed with Lu Zhinan, "Brother, wait here, brother go out for a while."

Lu Zhinan's palms were dripping with sweat, he held him tightly, he was taken aback when he heard it, and said, "You want to go?"

Chu Ge said: "The key is left there, I have to go and pick it up, otherwise we won't be able to enter the door today."

The child was still holding him, unwilling to let go at all.Chu Ge yelled twice at the top of his voice, but there was no movement at all. The voice-activated lights on this floor were broken.

It's no wonder that he was scared when he threw a child at the door in a blind way, but Chu Ge always wanted to go out and get the key back.He didn't know where the key was left, who knew when he would find it, so he couldn't take Lu Zhinan out to look for it again.

Chu Ge suffered from headaches, and he discussed with the system: "Tongzi, show me where the keys are?"

The system responded quickly, and began to search for him.

In the darkness, only the light from the window at the end of the corridor is faint, but the iron fence is more gloomy.

Lu Zhinan snuggled up beside him, his palms were cool, Chu Ge thought it was because he was afraid, so he took the child to him.

"Brother, brother will go out to find the key later, you stay here, brother will be back in a while."

The child's face was pressed against him, and the whole body leaned against him desperately, as if it was about to shrink into his arms, still trembling non-stop.

His small body seemed to bear a huge burden, and he was too scared, and his thin arms hugged Chu Ge's waist tightly.

Chu Ge wanted to let go and pat him on the back, but Lu Zhinan trembled more violently as if he had been frightened.

"what happened?"

Chu Ge asked, he stretched out his injured hand, bent it up, and patted Lu Zhinan with the back of his hand that was still clean.

"Hey, don't be afraid, brother is here..."

He comforted him softly, thinking that Lu Zhinan was frightened today.The body trembling in his arms finally calmed down, as if hesitating.

Chu Ge patted him gently, waiting patiently for him to speak.

Lu Zhinan didn't speak, his small body twisted and he raised his arms.

"elder brother."

"I'm here."

The child was still hesitating, but after a while, he finally made up his mind.

Chu Ge felt his trouser pocket move, as if something light fell into it, and the pocket sank.

At the same time, a rustling electric sound sounded in his mind, and the system was extremely pleasantly surprised: "The key is found!"

Chu Ge: "..."
