fool around

The iron door of Room 43 was only ajar, but not really closed.The street lamp under the eaves that had never been turned on was suddenly turned on tonight.

Si Yu stood on the steps in front of the door, a few moths were chasing each other under the dim light, and tiny dust particles floated in the air.

He looked up at the moths circling around the light bulb, and remembered when he was ten years old.

At that time, a particularly popular computer game emerged, and several good buddies in the class formed gangs and formed teams, calling for Si Yu to join them all day long.

Si Yu didn't have a computer, and only Si Zheng's second-hand computer was bought to write novels at home. He couldn't even access a video website, let alone bring a large online game.

He knew the situation at home, electronic products worth thousands of yuan were extremely luxurious things in their home, he didn't even dare to think about it, and he didn't mention it to Si Zheng.

But a boy in his teens is inevitably haunted by vanity. The chat topics and entertainment activities of friends are games, and Si Yu can't get involved at all. He gradually feels isolated and excluded.After school on Friday, my friends made an appointment to meet online at 07:30 in the evening, and asked Si Yu if he would come. He waved his hands and said no, he couldn't play those things.A few friends hung shoulders and joked that he was a country bumpkin who couldn't keep up with the trend.

He returned home dejectedly, only to find that Si Zheng was actually at home, still writing at his desk, the computer keyboard was making crackling noises, and there were only leftovers left over from lunch on the dinner table.

Si Zheng just found a night shift job as a community security guard a week ago, with a monthly salary of [-] and one meal included.It stands to reason that he should have been on duty at this point, why is he at home?

Si Zheng heard the voice, turned his head and smiled at Si Yu and said, "Are you back? Dad bought a bag of rice, fifty catties, enough for us and my grandfather to eat for a while."

"Why are you at home?" Si Yu said, "You're going to be late for work."

Si Zheng fingered the Enter key on the keyboard, and said casually: "Quit, this job is not suitable for me."

This is not the first time he has been fired, it is like this every time, he is fired after working in one place for a few days, the reason is that he is always talking about ghosts here, there are monsters there, and he has to be complained several times a day Second-rate.

Si Yu didn't know where the grievance came from at that moment, why couldn't he play computer games like other people of his age?Why can't he buy the latest sneakers from the store?Why can't he buy a new one after wearing a padded jacket for three years and the sleeves are getting shorter?

He slammed his schoolbag on the ground, his anger was like an erupting volcano, and the magma drenched his whole body.

He took a kitchen knife first, and slashed several times on the unopened rice bag, causing the rice grains to splash all over the floor.

Si Zheng was startled, fearing that Si Yu would hurt him, he rushed up to grab the knife.Si Yu pointed at his nose and shouted: "Why are you always like this! Can't you have a decent job! I was looked down upon because of you! It's all your fault!"

Si Zheng's lips trembled violently, and he stood there stiffly like a son being scolded by his father.

There were several change bills under the electric fan on the dining table, Si Yu touched a 20-yuan bill, turned around and ran away.He ran to an Internet cafe, bought four hours, boarded the game, and couldn't wait to join the brothers' team.

The special effects of the game are cool and dazzling, but he is restless playing.After finishing a brilliant skill, the man next door lit a cigarette, and the second-hand smoke made him cough non-stop. Thinking that Si Zheng also smoked a few years ago, he quit smoking because he was poor.

After ten o'clock, Si Yu began to regret in the lingering smoke.

For 20 yuan, you can buy a lot of spinach, a spare rib, and breakfast for a week.

He turned off the computer and planned to go home. The network administrator said that there was still more than half an hour left. Si Yu said, can I get back the money for half an hour?

The network manager looked contemptuous, probably because he felt that the boy was too poor, so he threw him five dollars.

Si Yu was carrying five yuan, thinking on the way that he didn't bring the key, what if his father got angry and didn't open the door for him, and he was too shy to knock on the door. Could it be that he really wanted to spend the night under the overpass?

He walked home thinking wildly all the way, only to find that the door of the house was not closed when he got home. The light in the corridor had been out for more than a year. At this moment, his small charging desk lamp was placed at the stairway, quietly lighting it up for him to go home way.

The scene when I was ten years old gradually overlapped with the present. There were no locked doors, no lit lamps, and I was specially waiting for the child who lost his temper and ran away from home.

Si Yu pushed open the heavy iron gate, and Qi Lu stood in the yard. He was tall and tall, with his hands folded around his chest, his back against the wall, his head slightly raised, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

"The moonlight is beautiful," Si Yu walked to him, leaned against the wall like him, and said softly, "What a big moon."

Qi Lu seemed to have guessed that he would come, and was not surprised at all. He just nodded slightly and said, "It's the full moon."

Si Yu compared two circles with both hands, made a telescope shape and put it on the eye sockets, looked at the moon in the sky for a while, and suddenly said, "Huh? Mr. Qi likes to look at the moon?"

Qi Lu also stared at the moon intently, Si Yu lightly bumped his arm with his shoulder, and asked him: "What a beautiful moon, do you like it?"

This action was a bit too intimate for Qi Lu, he took a step to the side uncomfortably, tilted his head and saw Si Yu's soft side face again, the ear pinna showed an ivory-like texture under the moonlight.

——What a beautiful human being.

It was as if someone tapped his heart twice with a small hammer, and he didn't know what was going on with him, only that his body seemed to lose control, and he moved back half a step in a mysterious way.

Si Yu turned his head towards him, with a telescope made of hands on his face, looking a little silly.

Qi Lu subconsciously turned his gaze away, avoiding his eyes.

"I told Xiaofu just now that if you like the moon, you should tell it." Si Yu's eyes hidden behind the telescope were bent into the shape of an arch bridge, and there was a soft smile in his voice, "If you like someone, you should tell him too. "

Qi Lu kept his back straight and remained silent.

He wore very little, only a thin nightgown, and the wind poured in through the wide cuffs, stretching the sleeves into a bulging shape.

From Si Yu's point of view, such Qi Lu had lost his usual indifference and sharpness, and seemed a little lonely.

He had sudden heart palpitations, and the steadiness of skin-to-skin contact on the sofa in the afternoon still clearly remained in his memory. He stood a little further away from Qi Lu calmly, put his hands in his pockets, and said with a smile: "Little boy, Just like the moon, trying to shine brightly to the person you like. If you just stare at him from a distance, he won't feel it."

"Like the moon?"

Qi Lu raised his head slightly, and repeated it very softly, with a slight rise in the end.

"Well, like the moon." Si Yu nodded, stretched out a hand from his pocket and raised it high, fingers spread out, palm up, "You have to get close to him like this, so that you can feel his temperature and make him feel your turn."

Qi Lu frowned slightly, raised one hand, and held the moonlight in his palm, the veins of each palm print were clearly reflected.

"Did you feel it?" Si Yu turned to ask him, "The temperature of the moon."

Qi Lu also turned his head sideways, and Si Yu's eyes also had a moon, which was clear and bright, and it was bright and warm when he smiled.

He felt his fingertips burn, and his five fingers curled up slightly.

He seemed to feel the temperature of the moon.

"Has Mr. Qi ever liked anyone?" Si Yu blinked and asked him suddenly.

Qi Lu was taken aback, he was very slow in some aspects, for example, now, he couldn't guess what kind of mood Si Yu had in asking him this question, he only saw himself reflected in Si Yu's pupils, flustered It is clear.

He raised one hand and put his arm on his forehead, trying to cover up his sudden panic at this moment.He pursed his lips and said, "Never."

"No wonder." Si Yu snapped his fingers, his voice was clear and crisp, "Mr. Qi doesn't seem to know how to like someone."

Qi Lu heard his messy breathing, some long and some short, some light and some heavy.

"But it doesn't matter." Si Yu lowered his head and chuckled, clenched his fists, raised his head again after mustering up the courage, "I am a teacher, and I will teach you."

The small hammer hit Qi Lu's heart with a "bang", which was so powerful that the blood in his whole body began to roar, and waves of heat came from his fingertips.

In the middle of a beating heartbeat he said, "Teach me what? What is this human being going to teach me?"

The moonlight cast a deep shadow between his browbones. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Si Yu's auricle, which was no longer as white as ivory, but a peach-like red.

Qi Lu's Adam's apple rolled violently, he closed his eyes, thinking that what Lin Mubai said was right, this human being was indeed tempting him.

The problem-solving steps in his head were completely disrupted, and Si Yu was like this, step by step, leading him to a wrong answer.

After Si Yu finished speaking, he waited anxiously for a moment, but Qi Lu still didn't respond at all.

He sighed in his heart, changed the subject and said: "Xiaofu will be back in a while, as long as Mr. Qi hugs him, he will be very happy."

"Yeah." Qi Lu replied softly.

Si Yu walked out the door and was about to reach the iron gate. He turned around and smiled at Qi Lu: "Thank you, Mr. Qi."

"What?" Qi Lu didn't respond.

"Thank you for opening the door and turning on the light." Si Yu's nose was sore, he sniffed, "It reminds me of some... very happy past."

"You're welcome."

"Go back, good night, Mr. Qi."

"Ah."

Si Yu returned to his room, and Xiao Fu hugged the small pillow and waited restlessly in the room.

Seeing him coming, the little guy threw himself into his arms, raised his face and asked, "Did brother coax the master well?"

"Coax it," Si Yu picked up the little guy, "Master is easy to coax."

"Really?" Xiao Fu blinked his big eyes and asked in a daze.

"Really," Si Yu leaned into Xiaofu's ear, "As long as Xiaofu says loudly to Master—Master, Master, I like you so much, Master will be happy."

"Wow!" Xiaofu clapped his hands, his voice was clear and crisp, "It's so simple! Did my brother tell the master the same way!"

Si Yu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile: "No, brother's method of coaxing master is different from Xiaofu's."
