[Net King + Black Basket] Seijuro, your mother calls you to go home for dinner!

On the first night of camping, Xunli didn't sleep very well. His eyes, accustomed to the darkness, stared blankly at Seijuro's angelic sleeping face, but he found that he was in a deep sleep and hugged him tightly in the posture of an octopus. Hold her hand.That arm was already numb, and she couldn't move it after trying several times.

The feeling of sweating and not being able to take a bath is terrible. Fortunately, the temperature difference between morning and evening is slightly larger, so it will not cause prickly heat.But she just didn't feel sleepy at all, probably because she used a coat instead of a pillow, and the hard grass only separated by a layer of waterproof cloth was no better than her soft bed.

It turns out that she is also very good at bed...

"Just like a pig."

She patted his cheek lightly, so quiet that she could hear the snoring as thin as a mosquito.

It was only four o'clock in the morning when the morning light appeared on the horizon.But Xunli couldn't bear it anymore, he broke Seijuro's claws with all his strength, and climbed out of the tent to get some air.

"what!"

"what."

She bumped into another person's sight head-on, and exclaimed softly.The latter was also quite surprised, shaking the hand holding the e-book.

Masashi sat gracefully by the tent entrance, his slender legs stretched and overlapped, bathed in the twilight.

Or was he the first to react, and asked softly, "Xiao Zheng is still sleeping?"

"Yes." As soon as the child was mentioned, the atmosphere between the two of them would always ease up a lot in an instant.Xun Li laughed, "I was worried that he would not get used to it before, but I didn't expect to sleep so deeply."

After chatting about Seijuro's recent situation for a while, they fell silent one after another, as if they couldn't find anything to talk about anymore.

"Today, today's weather is really nice." Xunli's technique of changing the subject needs to be reworked.As soon as she spoke, she wanted to bite off her tongue——Nimma, how can you be like the British in three sentences that cannot be separated from the weather! ?

"==" was indeed despised by Masashi.

"Cough, cough, I'll go for a walk first." She touched her head in embarrassment, and found an excuse to leave quickly.

Sure enough, it was no longer possible to be alone with him calmly like on the train.

……

The second day's itinerary is relatively easy, basically focusing on barbecue at noon and free activities.Xunli followed the other young mothers to the town to buy meat, while the fathers stayed in the small forest to collect firewood and make a fire.

Xun Li pushed a cart full of meatballs and veal steaks, and the mothers looked sideways at the checkout.

"Is this going to buy everyone's share?"

"Children are growing up and eat a lot." She waved her hands nonchalantly, never admitting that she actually wanted to eat meat.

The second day was cloudy and overcast, without the hot and dry discomfort caused by direct sunlight. The forest was cooler and more pleasant than usual, so it was perfect to choose barbecue at noon.Seijuro had been sitting by the small bonfire built with firewood early on, waiting for Kaori to return.Although I have grilled in my backyard before, I have never had a cookout outside, and it is a natural method that does not use gas and a stove.

The other children also patiently gathered in a circle, waiting for the first plate of roasted chicken legs and sweet potatoes to come out of the oven.

"Can I try it?" Akashi seemed to be more interested in the barbecue itself than eating it.

Xun Li handed him the meat skewers, "Don't get too close to the fire, turn them over after a while. When you see the surface is slightly burnt, it means it's cooked."

He learned it well, and Fuji Yuta next to him was also very interested, so he asked Xunli for a meat skewer to try for himself.

It seems that Xun Li's judgment was correct—seventeen people wiped out six boxes of meat, mushrooms, sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes.The children tasted the fruits of their labor and forced food into their stomachs.It seemed they didn't expect to have dinner anymore either.

"I can't eat anymore." Seijuro accepted it when he saw it was ready, but he was still two points fuller than usual.

Foodie Yuta has a greasy mouth, holding half a chicken leg in his hand.

"By the way, what should we do after eating?" He said vaguely.

"How about hide and seek?"

"This is good!"

The children next to him booed one after another, and Seijuro nodded in agreement.It was rare to be able to play with so many children of similar age, and a small expectation sprouted in his heart.

The adults dared not let the children go deep in the forest, so Xun Li volunteered to join the games of these youngsters.Two ghosts are selected by finger-guessing, and the rest of the children choose their hiding places within the specified time.

In the first round, Xunli pulled Seijuro into the depths, and chose a remote location with dense trees, and the branches and leaves under his feet creaked.

"Huh~ It will take a while for them to find this." She pushed Seijuro behind the thick/strong tree trunk, and the trunk that can only be surrounded by several people becomes the best protective shield.The two of them were surrounded by dense towering trees in the center, with numerous branches blocking the way, and the space for them to accommodate them was narrow.

Maybe it was because he ran too fast just now, the buzzing sound hit Seijuro's eardrums, and finally his misty eyes could only be placed on the side of Kaoru's face which was less than ten centimeters away from him.A familiar dry breath lingered on the tip of his nose, and he held his breath cautiously. This feeling of relief made him unconsciously lean against her again.

"Well, with my mother here, they can't find us." He raised his smiling face and spoke confidently.

Xunli got impatient for waiting, and squatted down to observe the pebbles of various shapes and falling leaves.

"Hey, this is the maple leaf, right? It has turned red." She was pleasantly surprised to pick up the thin maple leaf, which was half the size of a palm. color texture.She stuffed maple leaves to Seijuro, "I used to pick up leaves as bookmarks when I was a child."

Seijuro silently held the leaf and looked at it carefully, as if it were some valuable treasure, and then carefully put it in his pocket for preservation.

"Look, nature has given us a lot, so we must learn to protect the environment." Xun Li did not forget to take this opportunity to give him a lesson and pat his furry head.

"Ok!"

……

The pair were discovered last, when the game was over and the children who had been caught earlier were all looking for them.

"Let me be the ghost this time." Xun Li volunteered, and for the sake of fairness, let her be the only ghost to catch the children hiding in the forest.

She covered her eyes and started counting down, "Thirty...29...ten...nine..."

At first I could still hear their panicked footsteps and screams, but when I counted to "one", I couldn't see half of them when I opened my eyes again.

"Cut, it flashes pretty fast~" Xun Li calmly searched for it from nearby, and these impatient children would automatically show their feet after a while.

At first, Seijuro planned to act alone. On the way, he met Fuji Shusuke who was walking away from his younger brother. The two exchanged glances and found the same hiding place by coincidence.

"Tick, tick..."

Drops of water came from nowhere and fell on the feet. I thought it was an auditory hallucination, but the sound became more and more cool.Seijuro looked up at the gloomy sky.

"It's raining."

The chirping of cicadas still reverberates in the deep shade of the dense foliage. There are trees on the left and a 45-degree slope on the right. Below is a small cliff almost two meters high made of rubble.

He shook his head towards Zhou Zhu, saying that this place is too dangerous, so he should hide on the other side.

"What about the tree?"

"The trunk is too slippery." He glanced at the straight trunk, which was not suitable for climbing. The leaves and branches were not too dense, and even if he climbed up, he could not cover his body.

They sat side by side under the tree, with their arms around their shoulders, waiting for the ghost to come.

The rain became more and more intense, the original "tick" sound was replaced by "crash", the cold touch fell on the clothes and mixed with sweat, it was so slippery that Seijuro felt uncomfortable all over.

The soil on the ground was desperately absorbing water, he didn't want to get his pants dirty, so fortunately he stood up and leaned against the tree trunk.

Zhou Zhu tugged at the corner of his clothes and shook his head disapprovingly. "You'd better sit down, it's too dangerous."

There is a landslide below, and small stones mixed with soil roll down the small cliff along the rainwater, making "pop" sounds from time to time.

"……Oops!"

Seijuro swayed, and the maple leaf Xunri gave him just now fell from his small pocket, was blown away by an unfortunate gust of wind, and landed on the edge of a steep cliff.

He subconsciously moved forward, and when his flat shoes slipped on the wet ground, he fell forward uncontrollably!

"Seijuro!"

Accidentally appeared in the blink of an eye!

Zhou Zhu, who had always been calm and calm, didn't even realize that the red head disappeared from his sight in an instant!

Seijuro's mind was blurred, he only remembered being thrown violently when he fell off a small cliff.The surrounding scenes seemed to be pressed backwards, and they all slid upwards.The strong wind created by the free fall sank past the redhead and scratched his cheek.

"pain……"

He let out a muffled grunt, his thin body was firmly placed on the soft mud floor, his internal organs and six lungs were knocked out of place, and the pain like bone shattering exploded from his left leg bone!

"Seijuro, hold on first! I'll go find my lord right away!"

Zhou Zhu's smile froze on his face, replaced by astonishment.He panicked and ran to the camp for help.And Seijuro couldn't hear his exclamation clearly, his fingertips became cold, his limbs were as heavy as lead, and he couldn't use his strength anymore.

A bright red maple leaf slanted on his hair, and after being wet by water, it showed a bloody scarlet color.

Seijuro tried hard to open his eyes, but a sense of sleepiness gripped him, and he was suffocated by the pain from his left leg.

Fortunately, there are thick leaves and soft mud underneath, so a fall from a height of two meters will not be life-threatening.He remembered that his left side of the body hit the ground first, so it was no wonder that the left side of his body could not move now.

"So that's how it feels to be hurt..." He thought with some self-mockery.

The dense heavy rain suddenly weakened, and the pattering raindrops kissed his cheeks, and the air was filled with the fragrance of fresh soil.

Fortunately, Seijuro squinted his eyes, believing that his parents would find him soon - he must have been inevitably criticized by his mother and severely criticized by his father.

The wounds on the child seemed to have grown on the parents themselves. Just imagining the heartbroken eyes and tone mixed with worry, pity and anger gave Seijuro a sense of pleasure full of evil.

"If I get hurt, they will care more about me, right? Be by my side all the time..."

"That's actually a good thing."

Seijuro's thoughts were in a mess, and to be honest, he was taken aback by his own thoughts.

Deep in my heart, I long for the care of my parents too much, even if they are within my reach, even this is not enough.Because of this, I have been trying my best to be an excellent and motivated child who will not be rejected.

—He was too greedy.

"Xiao Zheng!!"

Are you hallucinating?

I was imagining the faces of my parents in my mind, and they appeared.

The man carved out of the same mold as himself jumped down without hesitation, supported Seijuro's thin body with his hands, and passed him to the person squatting on the edge of the cliff.

"Mom, Dad..." Why did you find me now?It's getting late—you see, the rain has stopped.

Seijuro covered his head in Xunli's arms, his eyes were too dry to shed a tear.

"Xiao Zheng, don't be afraid." She gently patted him on the back, comforting him softly, but there was an imperceptible tremor in her voice. "I will find you no matter what, and I will never forget you."

His family is his constant support.
