Sad autumn

Li Lanxiu created a WeChat group with only her, Qiu Mingchuan and Tuchun as members.The first message in the group was sent by Li Lanxiu. She asked: Who came up with the idea of ​​leaving me alone in the wilderness last time?Take the initiative to stand up, my lord does not count the faults of the villain, let the past go.

No one replied to her, and there was no movement in the group for several days, only Li Lanxiu tirelessly sent out movie coupons every day, but no one picked up the coupons. Every time Tuchun opened WeChat and saw that the coupons had expired.The police station was really busy. Xiao Zhao resigned, and Piao Zituan was pregnant. She had to have a check-up every week, and Dong Dong always had to accompany her.The weather is getting hotter day by day, taking advantage of a certain day when the baby group is going for a maternity checkup, the parents, mother-in-law and mother-in-law of the baby group come here to say hello to Gu Xiaohao. I hope that the elderly can reduce the frequency of her field trips. If the slender group is strong, they will not take the initiative to ask Gu Xiaohao to mention it. After all, the elderly are still worried that pregnancy is not easy. In case of bumps and mistakes, who will be responsible I can't get involved.

After hearing this, Gu Xiaohao agreed, and as soon as they left, he turned around and scolded Maotou for being slow, for not being able to make a cup of tea for a long time, for being passive and slow at work, for sweeping the floor and cleaning a table for a long time, he also scolded Dongdong, the report handed in was full of typos, Yonghui Supermarket was written as Aeon, and Jinmen Road was written as Jingmen Road. After cursing a few words, realizing that Dongdong was not there, Gu Xiaohao gritted his teeth, and the two fierce eyes had to align again. Maotou and Tuchun.

The police station is severely understaffed. No matter what shift he is in, Tuchun is out on the job every day, let alone checking his mobile phone. He always stands on the side of the road and picks up food in a hurry.

In the middle of the night, Li Lanxiu came and she brought snail meat and crystal meat. Tuchun happened to have not had dinner yet, so she and Gu Xiaohao took half an hour off to meet Li Lanxiu.Li Lanxiu also brought two cans of Sprite, which she said were ice. When Tuchun picked them up, the cans were sweating profusely.Li Lanxiu fanned the wind with her hands and said, "It's so hot."

She put the food on the back seat and cushion of Tuchun's bicycle, and Tuchun patronized eating and drinking without making a sound.Li Lanxiu stared at him, and said, "Are you a bit dark?"

Tuchun swallowed what was in his mouth, and touched his elbow: "Every day we are outside in the sun."

"So busy? Ah, the weather is hot, and everyone is more angry than when it is not hot?" Li Lanxiu sighed, "People are really strange. A little temperature can change their mood, hurt spring and autumn, and make themselves sentimental."

Tuchun looked up at her and said, "It should be better tomorrow, so I sent someone over to help."

Li Lanxiu said: "Then have you finished translating your translations? Ah, I want you to sort out the layout for you and print a copy at the fast printing shop as a souvenir."

Tuchun said: "There is no commemorative significance..."

Li Lanxiu stared straight: "Then why are you turning around?"

Tuchun frowned: "Three meals a day are enough for a person, and if you eat too much, you will gain weight, so why do you still eat supper?"

Li Lanxiu shrugged his shoulders, smiled, and turned his eyes: "Close to Zhu Zhechi, it seems that you have gotten very close to Xiaoqiu recently."

Tuchun hurriedly said, "I haven't seen him again."

"See you later."

Tuchun lowered his head to eat the vegetables, poured Sprite, and said softly, "Let's talk."

Li Lanxiu looked in the direction of the police station and asked Tuchun, "Hey, have you considered changing jobs?"

A strange cry like a baby's cry came from the grass, and Tuchun looked over, and saw a snow-white cat rushing to the road, and walked away silently with its tail up.Tuchun said, "Let's talk about it later."

Li Lanxiu fell silent, drank two sips of Sprite, suddenly threw up all over the floor, her face turned pale: "I'm going to die! There are bugs!!"

She also grabbed the fast food box containing snail meat and crystal meat and put it under the bright light. There were also a few small black insects on the food for this supper. Li Lanxiu suppressed a smile, filled with emotion: "People just talk too much." Just eat what you eat! Why talk so much! It’s alright now, the bugs will take the food first, after eating, don’t talk to me, let me have a good time! Tuchun, you just now If you eat so hard, you probably won’t be full of worms.”

"Replenishing protein." Tuchun said, using chopsticks to pick up a small flying insect on the snail, pick it up and eat it.Li Lanxiu clicked her tongue, Tuchun said: "Don't waste it."

On the other side, Gu Xiaohao came out of the police station. When he saw Li Lanxiu, his eyes shrank, he fixed his eyes on Tuchun, and said, "Have you finished eating for half an hour? There was a fight at the gate of Xinhong Garden. Let's run for a while." trip!"

Tu Chun wiped his mouth, and hurried forward to wait for Gu Xiaohao's orders.Li Lanxiu stuck out her tongue, waved her hands with Tuchun, picked up the rest of the dishes and left.

The next morning, when changing shifts, Tuchun met three new colleagues, one policeman and two auxiliary policemen.The policeman was transferred from Shilu. His surname is Jiang. He is about the same age as Gu Xiaohao. He has a beer belly and is also an old tea drinker. He also drinks hot tea from a thermos cup on a hot day. When he met Maotou, he talked about the classics of tea .The two auxiliary police officers were very young, one was surnamed Hu and the other was surnamed Wang. Xiao Hu exhausted smoke for the people present, softly, and the pack was gone in a blink of an eye. He took out another pack and put it on every desk. put two.Xiao Wang looks simple and honest, with naked eyes and a fleshy face. He looks beaming, and he calls brother when he meets everyone.

Gu Xiaohao picked up the cigarette, and Xiao Hu hurriedly lit it for him. Gu Xiaohao waved his hand carelessly, and said, "Ge, in the future, Tuchun, you take Xiao Hu and Xiao Wang with you. I will rearrange the class. Everyone leave a contact information."

Tuchun was flattered and looked at Maotou, who was smelling the tea brought by Lao Jiang. Their eyes met, Maotou smiled, and Tuchun also laughed.With Xiao Hu, Xiao Wang left a phone number, added WeChat, and he left.

Gu Xiaohao also got off work, and left the police station with Tuchun. When Tuchun was picking up his bicycle, Gu Xiaohao talked to him while biting a cigarette. He took two puffs before he spoke: "You can take others with you."

Tuchun glanced at the upstairs of the police station, there was no sound, the window was open, and a sparrow stopped on the window sill for a moment, then flapped its wings and flew away.

Gu Xiaohao said again: "Ah, mother Enduomu went to Wuzhen Baixiang?" (Did your mother go to Wuzhen to play?)

"Hey, help the little sister." (Yes, with the little sister.)

"Is things going well?" (Is things going well?)

"It's fine." (It's fine.)

Gu Xiaohao said: "If you're bored, go to Jinjin to get acquainted with each other." (If you're bored, go to Jinjin to have fun.)

Tuchun nodded, turned sideways, covered his mouth and yawned.Gu Xiaohao was still smoking, and said: "Gemelang, let's go first." (Then you go first.)

Tu Chun responded: "Well, I'll go first..." (Then I'll go first...)

Back home, Tuchun was hungry and tired, drank a cup of warm water, cooked a bowl of chicken head rice, sacrificed to Wuzang Temple, went to take a bath, and was ready to rest.He just lay down on the bed when Qiu Mingchuan called. He asked Tuchun, "Are you at work?"

Tu Chunjuan was under the quilt and said, "I just got off work."

"Is your mother cooking today?"

"Today my mother and little sister went to Wuzhen to play." Tuchun said, asking him, "What's wrong?"

Qiu Mingchuan said: "My matchmaker and junior sister said your mother's cooking is delicious."

Tuchun smiled, turned over, lay on his back, and pinched the eyebrows: "She hasn't eaten..."

"She said you did."

Tuchun still smiled and asked Qiu Mingchuan, "Where are you?"

Qiu Mingchuan said: "It's in the studio, do you want to come over and take a look? I'll send you a location."

Qiu Mingchuan's location was quickly sent out, and the location was at Ligongdi.Qiu Mingchuan sent a message asking Tuchun: Do you want to come over?

Tuchun thought for a while, then got up, changed his clothes and went to find Qiu Mingchuan.He took a taxi there, and when he was about to arrive, he asked Qiu Mingchuan if he wanted to bring him some breakfast.Qiu Mingchuan didn't return, and his car drove into the park. Tuchun saw a convenience store and asked the driver to stop in front of the store for a while. He went down and bought two steaming meat buns, two tea eggs and a large can of orange juice. .

Qiu Mingchuan's studio is located deep in Li Gongdi, next to it is a private restaurant, and next to it is a coffee shop. At this time, both the restaurant and the coffee shop are closed.Tuchun saw Qiu Mingchuan at a glance. He was sitting in front of two pitch-black wooden doors eating a cigarette. He was wearing a loose short-sleeved T-shirt and linen pants, which looked like sleeping clothes (pajamas).He bowed his back, dropped his hands, bare feet, his collarbone and insteps were bathed in the sun, and he and Tuchun waved the cigarettes in their hands.

Tuchun got out of the car and said as he walked, "I thought you didn't smoke."

Qiu Mingchuan frowned, curled his lips, and said: "I wanted to quit before, so I started to drink Coke. Later, I found that Coke was not very enjoyable, so I changed it back. I couldn't quit. I started smoking too early. If I smoked in the first two years, I would probably still drink it." Can quit."

Tu Chun shook the breakfast snack he was carrying: "I sent you a WeChat message, but you didn't reply, so I just bought some. Do you want some?"

Qiu Mingchuan raised his neck to look at Tuchun, his eyes seemed to be closed because he couldn't stand the too bright sunlight.His eyelashes are long, the bridge of his nose is high, and the corners of his upper lip are naturally turned up.He asked Tuchun, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

"Ah?" Tuchun was taken aback, and after a long pause, he said, "No..."

Qiu Mingchuan flicked the cigarette ash, still looked up at Tuchun like that: "I am 26, I will be 27 soon, I have no serious job, I don't have much else, I have a lot of money and time, I usually squeeze mud when I have time, and sell mud based on relationships , Coincidentally, I don't have a boyfriend either."

Tu Chun also didn't look away, he said: "Then is it time to enter the first round of keeping or turning off the lights for male guests?"

Qiu Mingchuan was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he stood up with his shoulders tilted, opened the two black wooden doors, put his body against the thick door panels, and showed Chun to enter.

The studio is spacious and empty, with a very high ceiling, like a cargo hold, a little movement can cause a long echo, the furnishings are extremely simple, as far as furniture is concerned, there are only a long table and a bright red single-door refrigerator.

The central air conditioner embedded in the ceiling supplied cold air, and Qiu Mingchuan walked around barefoot on the ground.

He closed all the curtains, went to the table, rummaged for a long time, found a remote control, pressed it against the south wall, and a roll of white curtains slowly lowered.There was also a laptop hidden on the table with various paints and manuscript paper. Qiu Mingchuan dug out the computer, connected it to a projector, and played a movie on the screen.

The only light source in the room comes from a floor lamp on the ground, which is far away from the curtain, and close to a towering gray mold, which is almost as high as the ceiling.There are also some plaster statues in the room, scattered in every corner, some of which look like human faces, and some look like jumping and flying animals and birds from certain angles.There were three other cardboard boxes piled up next to the table. Tuchun looked down and found a mailing information form on the cardboard box. The boxes contained items purchased from the US Amazon website.

Qiu Mingchuan was still tinkering with the projector and adjusting the volume with the remote control. Only then did Tuchun notice the speakers hanging near the curtains. The speakers were also pitch black, as if they were integrated with the dark curtains.The characters in the movie start talking, at moderate volume, the action has clearly been going on for some time, and a teacher throws a tantrum at a student without knowing it.Qiu Mingchuan laughed along with the group of children, put aside the remote control, took out a meat bun from the convenience store bag, and asked Tuchun, "Have you eaten yet?"

Tuchun nodded, then shook his head again.

Qiu Mingchuan looked at him with a smile, and stood with one hand on his hip: "Did you eat it or didn't you eat it?"

Tuchun said: "After eating a bowl of chicken head rice, I am going to bed. I want to eat it after I wake up. If you call me, I will come over."

Qiu Mingchuan said thoughtfully: "Oh, it seems that you have a high opinion of me."

Tuchun touched his ears, and turned his face to watch the movie. Qiu Mingchuan laughed in his ear. Tuchun stole a glance at him. There was still a cigarette in the bag, he chewed the meat for a while, and then ate the smoke. When the meat and the smoke were finished, he lit another one and opened the orange juice bottle with the cigarette in his mouth.

Tuchun peeled a tea egg and handed it to Qiu Mingchuan. Qiu Mingchuan ate half of one, took two glasses out of the refrigerator, put them on the table, and ran again, holding a box of cakes and a bottle Mineral water came back to the table.He pushed away the sundries on the table and moved the place for the food. Several pencils fell to the ground. Tuchun picked them up one by one. When he raised his head again, he sniffed his nose and looked at the cake, asking for revenge Ming Chuan: "This cake is durian-flavored?"

Qiu Mingchuan held up a glass bottle of mineral water and asked him, "Water or orange juice?"

"Water." Tuchun said.

Qiu Mingchuan drank orange juice and ate durian cake with his fingers. One bite of the cake and one bite of the remaining half tea egg.He ate for a while, and said to Tuchun, "You don't eat durian? That's okay, I will."

Tuchun smiled, he ate the leftover steamed stuffed bun, and broke it into two, he pushed Qiu Mingchuan down, and Qiu Mingchuan bit off the meat inside.The skin of the steamed stuffed bun was warm, so Tuchun ate it slowly with ice water.He and Qiu Mingchuan looked at the curtain together.

Tuchun couldn't understand the movie in Italian with English subtitles, and he started watching halfway through, so he had to concentrate on watching the subtitles.There were no chairs in the studio. After he stood for a while, his feet were sore and his legs were swollen, he leaned against the table and stood half leaning. Qiu Mingchuan sat directly on the table and put the cake on his lap. He suddenly spoke, in a very low voice. Ask Tuchun: "Have you seen this?"

Tuchun shook his head, lowered his voice, and asked, "Do you like watching movies?"

Qiu Mingchuan licked his fingers, wiped his hands on his clothes, and said with a smile, "I don't like watching movies, I just like to escape from reality."

He was probably full, put the cake back in the refrigerator, drank the orange juice in the glass, smoked a few cigarettes, snuffed out the butt of the cigarette on a wooden palette, grabbed a dirty apron and put it on. , There were a lot of exquisite small shovels and knives in the pocket of the apron. He walked to the three-meter-high gray model and adjusted the light of the floor lamp until the light beam was concentrated on the top of the gray model. He had just climbed a ladder erected next to the sculpture.

He sat on the ladder and stroked the dark gray statue.

Tuchun couldn't see the details of the statue clearly, and couldn't tell what it was. It looked like a human face, a humanoid figure covering half of his face, thinking about something, and like a weather-beaten stubborn stone.

Tuchun asked curiously, "Is this a portrait?"

Qiu Mingchuan said, "That's right, my image."

After saying that, he turned his head to Tuchun and made a gesture of covering the right half of his face, with his left eye slightly closed, and asked, "Does it look like it?"

Tuchun shook his head. If this statue is really a person, then this person is too ugly, with protruding eyeballs, bulbous nose, huge nostrils, a pair of thick lips that seem to never close together, and his tone may be annoying , the hair is also very sparse, the arms are thin and thin, like a child, but the body is the body of an adult, naked, with some chicken breasts.He doesn't look like Qiu Mingchuan at all, but looks like The Clock Tower Frankenstein.

Qiu Mingchuan turned back, picked some mud from the statue's eye sockets, and patted it on the back of his ear. He rubbed, twisted, gently pushed and rubbed slowly, and said, "I will be moved to a park, and I will keep watching looking at them." He pointed to his eyes, and then pointed elsewhere: "I've been looking at you all the time."

Tuchun drank water silently, but there was no sound. A pair of naked breasts suddenly appeared on the curtain, round and plump, and a little boy ran away.

Qiu Mingchuan laughed, took the cigarette from his mouth, shook off the ash, and said: "You still have to love life, you see, life will give you a pair of big breasts at any time, you will never die of beauty."

But life will also give you a death at any time.

In the movie, the boy's mother dies.

It was a sad time, and the characters in the movie seemed to be wandering spirits. The studio was horribly cold and seemed to be full of dead souls, and a mobile phone on the table vibrated and rang wildly.

Tuchun and Qiu Mingchuan said, "Your phone number."

"Who's calling? Take a look."

Tuchun picked it up and looked at it: "There is no note."

Qiu Mingchuan shrugged his shoulders: "It's probably for real estate sales, don't worry about it, hang it up for me."

He ate cigarettes, watched a movie quietly for a while, and quietly made the neck of the man covering his face thinner and more fragile.The man's neck became like a toothpick, as if it would break at any moment because he could not bear the weight of his big head, so he had to hold his face with his hands and cover it.He was too ugly, too ugly to bear.

Tuchun remembered something, he asked Qiu Mingchuan: "Have you seen "The Elephant Man"?"

Qiu Mingchuan laughed, his cell phone rang again, it was the same number.This time, Qiu Mingchuan climbed down from the ladder, and he answered the phone with his hands covered in plaster.He didn't speak, just listened, drank the water in Tuchun's cup, and looked at him.His eyes were flickering, and the overflowing arrogance also trembled, looming.Tuchun added some water to the cup, but Qiu Mingchuan lowered his head and continued to drink, but still remained silent.He didn't let go of his hand. After listening to the call for a while, he dropped the phone and asked Tuchun, "Are you up to date?"

"Nothing."

Qiu Mingchuan stared blankly at the ground, and continued to ask: "Then do you have to go to work tomorrow?"

Tuchun happens to be on vacation tomorrow and is free.Qiu Mingchuan smiled, looked at him and said, "Would you like to go to Taihu Lake together?"

Tuchun was puzzled, and Qiu Mingchuan didn't explain much. He took out a luggage bag from under the table, and opened the cardboard boxes beside the table. It turned out that there were all DVDs inside. He grabbed these DVDs and stuffed them into the bag.

"Take it to the boat to watch." Qiu Mingchuan said.

Tuchun was even more puzzled: "Boat?"

Qiu Mingchuan raised his head halfway, and blinked at him: "Yes, the boat."

Tuchun didn't expect that an hour later, Qiu Mingchuan really took him onto a boat—a luxury yacht moored at the wharf of a certain yacht club in Taihu Lake.

The two stood on the trestle bridge. Qiu Mingchuan was wearing slippers, an apron was still hanging around his neck, and the back of his hands was covered in mud. He slapped his chin at Tuchunnu: "Go in."

Tuchun scratched his head and scratched his head, and on the brown window glass, there were a few floating figures in the cabin.

"Go in!" Qiu Mingchuan smiled and pushed Tuchun onto the boat, almost pushing him into the cabin.

"Ah? Who's there? It's not good for me to go in like this..." Tuchun was still chattering with Qiu Mingchuan, but he had already met the men and women in the cabin.

At this time, Qiu Mingchuan jumped out from behind him, and introduced: "My dad, Qiu Lao, remember, you must not call him Lao Qiu, he sounds like an old cadre, like a politician, he is an artist, and he pays attention to the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature. , talk about spirituality, politicians are hypocritical, have no style, if you confuse them, he will be angry; my mother, Hong Se, the color of color, of course, is a stage name, in fact, her real name is Ping Ping, Ping Ping of Apple, my grandfather said a cheap name Easy to keep, he had a dog before, also called Ping Ping, don't tell my mother about Dorothy Lange because 'she was just born in the right time'; she must have three in this pocket on the side The man on the phone, my mother’s assistant, Xing Shu, likes to help others the most, and can help with anything, oh, don’t come close and smell his beard, it smells like pubic hair; Jia Jin, used to be our driver, responsible for cleaning The vomit in the car, bought skim milk for my mother, with flexible legs and feet, and a good mouth. With these two skills, my sister was soaked. Now, I still clean up the vomit every day, for the less five per 250ml Ten calories over the mountains; My sister is this sensitive pregnant woman, you see she is about to cry again; Aunt Xuexue, the cutest person here, it’s a pity that my son gambles and will continue to do it for our family He works like a horse, washes my dad's underwear, and goes to the counter once a week to help my mother carry the clothes and purses that she can't afford in her life. The money she makes every month is not enough for us to eat caviar and cows for a meal. Grilled; Uncle, Huahuahua is not as good as my dad. He switched to an organic farm and is better at raising pigs than all of us. Otherwise, if you let him look at them more, he will feel that his life will be shortened.

"I, you already recognize me, look, everyone here looks like they want to kill me, you know how popular I am.

"My boyfriend Tuchun."

After Qiu Mingchuan finished speaking, he threw his luggage behind his shoulder, walked into the narrow aisle, and called Tuchun, "Are you coming?"

Tuchun was stunned, he only dared to swallow the whole group of Qiu Mingchuan's family and friends, and couldn't say anything, so he quickly followed Qiu Mingchuan, staggered down the first floor, and flashed into a suite.

There is no window in the room. A square glass fish tank is decorated on each of the three walls. There are jellyfish in it. The background light will change color and be dimmed. The jellyfish float leisurely.

Qiu Mingchuan went straight to the TV. There was a game console under the TV cabinet, and the two handles were plugged in for charging.Qiu Mingchuan turned on the TV, turned on the game console, picked out a Blu-ray disc from his bag, stuffed it into the game console, and sat down on the floor with the controller in his arms.He wiped his nose with the apron, rubbed his buttocks on the carpet and moved back, leaning against the end of the bed, crossed his legs, and did not move.

Tuchun sat on the bed, thought about it, and said, "I'll go say hello to your family, I'm a little embarrassed..."

Qiu Mingchuan said: "You and I are in love with a partner, not with them. I don't care what they do. They and I are only related by blood."

Tuchun said: "Blood relationship is very important."

Qiu Mingchuan grinned, and patted Tuchun's leg: "Bring me an ashtray here."

Tuchun searched inside and out for a long time but couldn't find the ashtray, and finally took out the porcelain dish with soap in the bathroom.

Qiu Mingchuan lit a cigarette and pointed to the screen: "There are two great Bressons in the world." He continued: "One my mother likes, and the other I like."

Tuchun looked at the DVD box on the floor, Bresson's "Pickpocket".He also sat down.

"Have you seen it?" Qiu Mingchuan asked, his foot touched Tuchun's leg, they both raised their eyes and looked at each other, Tuchun lit a cigarette and nodded.

Qiu Mingchuan took off his shoes and stuffed his feet under Tuchun's trousers.Tuchun got closer to him, rubbed his instep, pulled off the bed cover, covered his feet, and then, gently, covered his hands.

They watched movies one after another, some of them had been seen, some hadn’t, anyway, for a while the earth was going to be destroyed by the pods, for a while a melancholy bride was quietly waiting for the end of the world, and for a while there were only talking apes left on the earth up.There is also love, a man in love with a woman, desperately embracing each other through the complicated flow of people; a man in love with a man, and after spending a weekend together, they parted; out a hand.

Tuchun gradually couldn't tell whether it was day or night outside. He leaned against the end of the bed and squinted for a while. When he woke up, Qiu Mingchuan was watching "Xia Xia Xia", shaking with laughter while eating cigarettes.Qiu Mingchuan found that Tuchun was awake and sat on him. What Tuchun wanted to say, Qiu Mingchuan covered his mouth, rolled his eyes upwards, and looked at a place behind Tuchun. He refused to let Tuchun look back. Tuchun had no choice but to be held by him, and he heard him groan.

"Well, um... yes, that's right there, fuck me... fuck me... Tuchun... so cool..."

Tuchun's face was red and his ears were red, while Qiu Mingchuan was still screaming on the bed, which intensified, his voice was terrifyingly loud, and his voice became hoarse after a while.After he couldn't shout any more, he cleared his throat, took a puff of cigarette, and looked down at Tuchun: "Why don't you cooperate?"

"Cooperation?" Tuchun realized something, "Who is the cooperation for?"

Qiu Mingchuan said: "It's so annoying. I came to knock on the door just now. I pretended to be asleep, but now I come again. The guards are not as punctual as they are checking the post."

Tuchun was helpless, Qiu Mingchuan reached out and grabbed a wine glass to drink: "Fortunately, the wine sent is not bad."

He handed the wine glass to Tuchun's mouth, and fed him a sip. When he drank the champagne, it was like a flower-and-fruit-flavored bubble bomb exploded, crackling and lively.Tuchun licked his lips, touched the cigarette case and lighter, and lit a cigarette.

Qiu Mingchuan was still sitting on Tuchun, his voice suddenly sank, and he asked Tuchun seriously: "Can I lick your eyes?"

Tuchun was confused: "Lick your eyes?"

Qiu Mingchuan nodded vigorously, and stretched out his hand to touch Tuchun's face. His hands smelled of everything, including smoke, wine, dirt, wind, frost, snow and rain.

"I saw a movie before that said a man and a woman licked their eyes, they were very intimate, others said it as a joke, I was always curious about what it felt like to lick their eyes, but I hated touching other people, you, you are not bad, And I'm a little drunk, when I'm drunk, I'm another person, I'm not myself anymore, I can touch you, I'm not so annoying to myself..." Qiu Mingchuan shook his body, his eyes also changed Following Luansha, he hiccupped, put his hands around Tuchun's neck, and said with a smile, "I may have a problem with my brain, I like men, but I hate them touching me, and I hate touching them, I really have a problem , the problem is big, hey, Tuchun, you don’t wear contact lenses, do you?”

Tuchun laughed, Qiu Mingchuan knocked on his head, mumbled something, he fell to the side, Tuchun supported him, Qiu Mingchuan trembled, Tuchun hesitated, and loosened his hands a little, Qiu Mingchuan laughed loudly, grabbed his collar, leaned close to him, pointed his chin towards his nose, and gently touched Xia Tuchun's eyelids with his lips.Then he touched his eyes with the tip of his tongue.

"It's so salty!" Qiu Mingchuan yelled strangely, and fell beside Tuchun.Tuchun pulled him up from the ground, let him sit down, and watched him shake his head again and again: "You are not looking for a boyfriend."

Qiu Mingchuan chuckled and said, "You don't like me? I'm not worthy of your liking? Not good-looking? Not tall enough? Not humorous enough? Not rich enough? Or am I too good-looking, too tall, too humorous, or too rich?"

Tuchun said softly, "That's not what I said."

"Then let's talk about it, let's talk about it, what is love, what is love, people who don't have enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes need love more, or people who are too full and too warm to wear are qualified to pursue love , how should I put it, pure love."

Tuchun didn't ring, Qiu Mingchuan persuaded him: "You said I'm not looking for a boyfriend, so what do you say I'm looking for?"

Tuchun still didn't speak, he looked at Qiu Mingchuan, who was lying on the ground smiling, his eyes were sincere.

Tuchun said: "I have translated a sentence, but I have not been able to translate it well. I still don't know if I have translated it correctly."

"what?"

"Love is long forgetting."

Qiu Mingchuan said, "Didn't Neruda say this?" He thought for a while, then changed his words, "No, what Neruda said was that love is too short and forgetting is too long. You know Neruda, right?"

He jumped up, rummaged in the bag for a long time, changed the dishes, they stopped watching Hong Sang-soo, and watched "Hunt for Neruda".

When Neruda with heavy make-up appeared on the TV, Qiu Mingchuan covered his eyes with wailing: "I refuse this fat man to recite poems in front of me!!"

Tuchun laughed, turned him around, turned his back to the TV, and said, "Then just listen."

"But I don't understand!" Qiu Mingchuan continued howling: "Tuchun! You won't be able to find a boyfriend like this! You will grow old alone!!"

"What's wrong with me?"

"Are you so kind to everyone? Do you know that people can't be spoiled or spoiled? If you treat him badly, he will come to please you and treat you differently. You are too kind, he I just take it for granted and have nothing to fear. You can’t talk about love like this, you have to let him worry about gains and losses. Love is not born out of collision, but out of thought, out of suspicion.” Qiu Mingchuan pointed to his head, “It’s an illusion.” He stared Looking at Tuchun's cigarette, "It's your cigarette."

Tuchun didn't make a sound, and lowered his head to eat a cigarette.

Qiu Mingchuan asked him: "Then can I still go to your house for dinner? I really want to go to your house for dinner!"

Tuchun raised his eyes and said, "My mother will be back next Wednesday, you can come."

Qiu Mingchuan smiled. He stretched himself and sat back beside Tuchun. He leaned against him, breathing slowly, and fell asleep.Tuchun took the cigarette in his hand, put a pillow on him, covered him with a quilt, got up quietly, and went outside to get some air.

It was getting dark, and Tuchun climbed to the upper floor. On the deck, he met Qiu Mingchuan's sister. This pregnant woman had long limbs, only her belly was high, her cheeks were even sunken, and her collarbone was protruding. , the ribs on the chest are very obvious.The woman was lighting a cigarette. When she saw Tuchun, she put down the cigarette, smiled, and said, "Are you hungry? I asked the kitchen to bring you something to eat." You, but Xiao Chuan didn’t want it, others are a bit self-willed, please bear with me.”

She led Tuchun to the restaurant, and asked, "Where do you work? Are you from Suzhou?"

Tuchun followed her into the dining room. The woman arranged for Tuchun to sit down and walked around behind the refrigerator. After a while, she came out, followed by the "Aunt Xuexue" that Qiu Mingchuan called. This middle-aged woman had obviously fallen asleep. When she got off, she was wearing sleepy clothes, slippers, and her hair was disheveled. She looked at Tuchun while she was combing her hair.

Tuchun stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know... that... I'll just get something to eat myself, don't bother me."

Qiu Mingchuan's elder sister said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? Sit down, sit down."

Aunt Xuexue has opened the refrigerator and is busy.Tuchun said, "I still don't know how to call it..."

Qiu Mingchuan's elder sister blinked. She stood holding on to the chair, standing very unsteadily, and said after a while, "You can call me Lisa."

Lisa sat opposite Qiu Mingchuan. Aunt Xuexue quickly arranged two bowls of noodles. Tuchun went to help bring the two bowls of noodles to the table. Lisa folded her arms and said with a wrinkled face: "The next bowl will be fine." , why bother? All right, all right, go to sleep. "

Tuchun took the two bowls of noodles, smiled, and said, "The noodles are quite delicious. I don't think one bowl is enough for me. Thank you, auntie."

Aunt Xuexue made no noise, turned around and walked away.

Lisa lit a cigarette, she watched Tuchun eat the noodles, Tuchun stared at the noodles, and occasionally looked at the night scene, a string of arch bridge-shaped neon lights were far away, and some mountain shadows were far away, everything was dark and far away , everything is retreating to both sides.The night wind blew up some waves, the boat was very stable, but the noodle soup was swaying, as if it would spill out at any moment, Tuchun quickly picked up the bowl and drank the soup.When he put down the bowl, Lisa suddenly burst into tears. She looked at Tuchun with tears in her eyes and said, "Xiao Chuan worked very hard too. Today is actually to help him celebrate his birthday." She wiped her tears with a finger, " He worked very hard."

Lisa ate a cigarette tremblingly: "The scariest thing is to do some things when you don't understand anything. When you grow up, you will realize that they are very wrong, very wrong things. These things will torture you for the rest of your life." Lisa held the picture Chun's hand, emotionally agitated, unable to hold back: "It's the first time he brought his boyfriend to see us, he must have thought about your relationship carefully, can you be nicer to Xiao Chuan? I can't help it, I can't..."

Her expression seemed to be sleepwalking, and what she said seemed to be raving, Tuchun nodded silently, Lisa wiped away her tears, leaned on the table and the wall and walked out.

Seeing this, Tuchun said, "Do you want me to take you back?"

Lisa shook her head vigorously: "Eat, eat."

Tuchun had no choice but to give up, watched her go out, took a rest, finished the second bowl of noodles, washed the dishes, found some bread and chocolates in the kitchen, and took them back to the room.

Qiu Mingchuan was still asleep, and many jellyfish sank to the bottom of the tank, leaving only their tentacles shaking.Tuchun said softly to Qiu Mingchuan: "I brought some bread or something. If you are hungry, get up and eat some."

Qiu Mingchuan pulled up the quilt, wrapped his body tightly, and hugged Tuchun's arm. After a while, he began to speak, slightly and softly. Tuchun could hear clearly, but couldn't understand. Maybe it was Italian. , It sounds like crying, like confessing.

This whole night, Tuchun didn't sleep well. He always had dreams. He dreamed that the elephant man was lying on the bed and died.
