secretly

Zhou Ran waited at the gate of the police station. When he was tired from standing, he found a flower bed and sat down. He smoked one cigarette after another. He smoked for a long time without getting a taste.

When Zhou Jijun came out, Zhou Ran almost rushed forward and hugged Zhou Jijun's arm.His eyes were hot and hot, he didn't know what to say or how to say it, he just stuck his neck and shouted: "Where are others? You made a mistake! It's just..."

Zhou Jijun slapped him directly, and scolded him harshly: "F*ck, eat the inside out!"

Zhou Ran was overwhelmed by this blow. He knew that his father was not a reasonable person, so he tried in vain to reason with him: "It's really a mistake. He is my friend. He came to the store to accompany me today... "

Come with me for my birthday.

Zhou Ran suddenly felt unspeakably tired, after all his father never remembered his birthday.

So he was slapped again.Zhou Jijun clamped his left ear and dragged him away: "You treat me as dead. If the surveillance system was not broken a few days ago and called someone to fix it, I wouldn't have known that a white-eyed wolf like you had been raised at home! It's been so long , **** You treat me as a dead man! Helping people steal things? Are you trying to steal my money today? A son of a bitch!"

Zhou Ran staggered and followed: "Dad, listen to me, every time he took something, I paid for him, and the bill was correct, and he didn't miss the money. Really, there is no difference of a penny." Pass……"

Zhou Jijun slapped him backhanded, and slapped him down: "You pay?! You pay the ****? Damn it! Your money is my money! You have a fart money!"

——My secret is that one day I discovered your secret.

—I know every time you've been in the store.I hid your secrets, I became part of your secrets.

——Beloved, in such a big world, I am the only one, your only accomplice.

Zhou Ran didn't see Lou Yuchen that day.When he returned to the store, he saw a cardboard box on the right side of the iron door, but he didn't dare to go to look at it, because Zhou Jijun was right behind.

Just now Zhou Ran rushed to the police station to find someone, but the store door was not locked, and his father picked up the iron lock that fell on the ground and slapped it again.Zhou Ran was beaten up by his father since he was a child. After he went to high school, he grew taller and stronger, and his father could no longer hold him down and beat him.After he resisted a few times, his father didn't do much more.

But this time it was his own fault, Zhou Ran didn't hide, and suffered without saying a word.

Zhou Jijun tidied him up, took a breath, was tired, and didn't go to the mahjong hall again, and went to sleep on the upper half floor.Zhou Ran wiped his nosebleeds and went back to the counter to settle the accounts. The flashlight and batteries were still lying on the ground.He picked it up, and the metal shell of the flashlight touched the palm of his hand, revealing a biting cold.

After a while, Zhou Jijun's thunderous snoring came from upstairs.Zhou Ran walked lightly to the door and took the cardboard box in.

There is a takeaway note on it, and from the time on the printed paper, it should be ordered when the two of you ate Miaofu together, and the note reads: Please deliver as soon as possible, hurry up, thank you!

Zhou Ran unwrapped the package, and inside was a very beautiful cream cake with a circle of various fruits on top, and a few words "Adults also want to eat cake" written in the middle with jam, and a smiling face was drawn on the side.

Zhou Jijun whipped him so hard that his face still hurts numbly, and a tooth in the back was shaking, and it fell out after a few licks.Zhou Ran went to rinse his mouth, squatted on the ground and turned on the faucet.The water was very cold, I couldn't feel my mouth after holding it for a while, and the water I spit out was all red.He drank water mechanically, spit it out, drank it, spit it out, received it, drank it again, spit it out again...he wanted to eat the cake cleanly.

After rinsing his mouth and returning, Zhou Ran put on a candle and used all his wishes to bless Lou Yuchen that nothing would happen. It was exactly twelve o'clock when he blew out the candle.

He held up the spoon and stuffed the cake into his mouth, and ate it all in one bite. The cream and fruit mixed with the bloody smell left in his mouth was sweet and disgusting.

Going upstairs to sleep, the movement of climbing the ladder was a little louder, Zhou Jijun hummed twice in dissatisfaction, turned over heavily, and the spring bed creaked and creaked non-stop.There was still unfinished wine and unfinished dishes on the coffee table, so Zhou Ran moved the coffee table aside and slept on the floor with the quilt rolled up.

Hiding under the quilt, I turned on the phone, clicked on the dialog box with Lou Yuchen, first wrote "Do your parents know?", deleted it, and changed it to "Where are you now", deleted it again, and changed it to "You Are you home?", then delete it, and finally send out "How are you".

——Lou Yuchen didn't reply.

Zhou Ran stared at the phone until it was out of battery, then climbed downstairs to find a power bank, connected it and continued to wait, but still did not receive a reply.Later, I fell asleep for a while clutching my phone, half asleep and half awake, my mind was in a mess, still thinking about it.

How is Lou Yuchen?Did his parents already know?How will his parents deal with it?He probably wouldn't beat him up like Zhou Jijun did, after all, his parents are cultural people...they shouldn't file a case, right?Will it leave traces in the archives?Will it affect his admission to university?

Will Lou Yuchen blame him?Did he know he was always on his side?Damn, he doesn't think that asking him to come over tonight is a trick for him, does he?No, no, he's so smart, he's the smartest head in the school.Alas, what if this clever mind fails?

Maybe it was because I ate too much cream. I woke up at three o'clock and went downstairs to vomit.When I came back and looked at my phone again, Lou Yuchen still didn't reply to the message. "How are you" hangs alone in the dialog box.

Holding the phone, Zhou Ran sent another sentence, "Thank you for the cake".

In the second half of the night, I was still waiting for the news, without closing my eyes.The place where he was beaten hurts everywhere. If it was in the past, he would definitely skip class and not go to school, but he is anxious to see Lou Yuchen. He has never been so active in school. He arrived early even if he was not late. Seeing him was like seeing a ghost.

He squatted at the door of Class 1 for a morning reading class, but Lou Yuchen didn't come.In the first Chinese class, because he didn't do his homework yesterday, Zhou Ran was kicked out of the classroom and made to stand in the corridor. He looked at Class 1 through the patio, wondering if Lou Yuchen had come.

I didn't meet him in the cafeteria at noon.During every break in the afternoon, he ran to the door of Class 1, grabbed anyone at random, rushed up and asked fiercely, "Is Lou Yuchen coming to class?", scaring a group of well-behaved students.

It was the first day without any results, followed by the same second, third day...

A week passed, and the area on Zhou Ran's back that was scratched by the iron chain had begun to scab, and Lou Yuchen still hadn't been to school.

At the same time, some rumors spread in the school, saying that Lou Yuchen was really the son of the mayor, Lou Kai, but this time he was so embarrassing, he was caught on the spot for stealing, and the amount was huge. A habitual thief.A few days later, the school elected a new president of the student union, and everyone said it must be because Lou Yuchen dropped out of school.

Zhou Ran was very irritable several times, and wanted to use force to silence those who spread rumors, but was afraid that he would be expelled before Lou Yuchen returned to school, so he had to endure it.

It was No.14 when Lou Yuchen appeared.In the last class, Zhou Ran was lying on the table playing with his mobile phone, and saw someone on WeChat saying that Lou Yuchen had returned to school, and it seemed that he had gone to the teacher's office.

Zhou Ranteng stood up and rushed out of the classroom.At the stairs on the fourth floor, he saw Lou Yuchen, who was about to go downstairs, and there were more than ten steps between them.

Zhou Ran had just been on a rampage all the way, and the moment he saw Lou Yuchen, his heart beat fast.He stopped, breathing hard, breathing hard with his hands on his knees, his throat was dry and astringent.There are too many things I want to say, and in the end they all become hundreds of unresponsive soliloquies in WeChat, so that I don’t know what to say when I meet them.

--How are you?

——Didn’t you come to school today?

- all right?

—Is the matter settled?

--Can I help you?

——When will you go back to school?

--sorry.

——What happened?

——Lou Yuchen

——Lou Yuchen

——Lou Yuchen

——Chairman, are you there?

——If you see it, please message me back.

— Where can I find you.

——Are you still coming back?

Sunlight came in through the pane behind Lou Yuchen.His shadow flowed on the stairs, past Zhou Ran's side without stopping.
