Shao Chenfeng squatted on the ground with his hands handcuffed behind his back. The lower half of his face and the front of his chest were covered with bright red nosebleeds. No one would have thought that the once talented young painter with an artist-like expression in his eyebrows and eyes would become what he is today.

He was willing to fall into the abyss and destroy himself with his own hands.

Wei Hongzhi didn't look at him again. Who would like to look at garbage?Holding Que Ning's shoulders and walking out of the room, Que Ning looked back. The painter who was stroking his face and pouring out his heart a few hours ago was sanctioned. What a relief.

As if feeling something, Shao Chenfeng raised his head and looked at Que Ning. In addition to the intertwined despair and madness, there was also a thrilling obsession in his eyes. Even at this point, he still regarded Que Ning as some kind of irreplaceable personal item.Que Ning looked at him calmly for a few seconds, then looked away and followed Wei Hongzhi out the door.

The sun made him squint his eyes, and the sun was slowly setting towards the west, dyeing the clouds in brilliant colors.Wei Hongzhi stood at the door and turned his head to see Meng Changdong ten meters behind him.

He stood there alone, wearing the sportswear jacket that Wei Hongzhi called away from the video game city yesterday, tied around his waist, with a white bandage wrapped around his left hand, looking lonely at the two who were about to leave side by side.

"Would you like to have a meal together?" Wei Hongzhi asked, "I'm treating guests, you can eat whatever you want."

Those dark green eyes suddenly showed joy, Meng Changdong subconsciously took a small step forward, stopped the car again, looked at the silent Que Ning, and asked with his eyes.

Que Ning smiled at him, beckoned and said, "Come on."

So Meng Changdong happily ran to the two of them, he opened his arms, hugged Que Ning hard, and then let go, "That's great, I've been worried to death all day long, it's great that brother Que Ning is fine gone."

Que Ning rubbed his hair, and said with a smile: "It's been hard work, Dongdong, but fortunately you have the positioning, otherwise the situation would be terrible."

"Where did you hide your earrings?" Wei Hongzhi asked, he had noticed from the beginning that there were only two small holes left on Que Ning's earlobe, but he hadn't had time to ask.

"you guess."

"Hiding in that room?"

"No." Que Ning shook his head. He and Wei Hongzhi sat in the back row, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I ate it."

Wei Hongzhi:? ? ?

Wei Hongzhi: "What?!"

"Don't worry, I just swallowed the needle, nothing will happen, it will come out after a while." Que Ning squeezed the empty earlobe, "I'm afraid Shao Chenfeng will find it when he cleans the room. , I used the safest method, after I secretly swallowed one of them, he took the other one too."

"He was thrown away." Meng Changdong, the front co-pilot, heard the last sentence, and said, "The signal we first tracked has been moving since this morning, and finally stopped at the garbage disposal plant."

Que Ning breathed a sigh of relief, thankful for his decision at the time, if he hadn't handled the earrings well and let Shao Chenfeng throw them away, he would never have been rescued so quickly.

Because he was not very familiar with Mengcheng, Wei Hongzhi asked the driver to find a restaurant in the city. All three of them were starving. Although Que Ning had Shao Chenfeng to deliver the food, he didn't eat much at all. Including the driver, there were four people in total. , almost ate up the entire table.

Satisfied with food and drink, tired, they found a hotel nearby. Que Ning's ID card was not with them, but fortunately they had a certificate issued by the police, and they could stay in. They booked two rooms, the driver and Meng Changdong. Between Wei Hongzhi and Que Ning.

The moment he lay on the soft bed, exhaustion surged from every cell in his limbs, and Wei Hongzhi collapsed into big characters. He took a deep, deep breath, feeling the depression of the bed beside him, Looking sideways, Que Ning was kneeling beside him, reaching out to touch his chin.

The new stubble that grew overnight was not shaved off in time, and it was hard and sticky. Que Ning clearly saw the blood in Wei Hongzhi's eyes from lack of sleep, and his nose was sore. During the period of his disappearance, Brother Hong must have been looking for him.

"Go to sleep for a while." He said softly, "Your eyes are red."

"Okay." Wei Hongzhi took off his shoes, untied his clothes, and the curtains were drawn to cover the lights on the side of the street after twilight. Que Ning covered Wei Hongzhi with a quilt. He didn't lie down, just sat on his knees like this , looking down at the tired lover.

Obviously, I haven't seen each other for only one day, but I miss it as if we have been apart for months and years. I wish I could engrave each other's eyebrows and the frequency of breathing in the depths of my soul.Que Ning leaned down, pressed a kiss on the corner of Wei Hong's lips, and said, "Good night."

Wei Hongzhi's heart finally settled down completely. He closed his eyes, groped to find Que Ning's hand, held it tightly, and fell into a deep sleep accompanied by the strength of the opponent's back grip and the humming sound of the air conditioner.

Finally can rest.

The expected dream came true, but this time, Wei Hongzhi no longer stood from the perspective of a bystander, observing himself controlled by Wei Hong. In this dream, there was no bustling metropolis, no busy work, and no There is no great pressure of life, because in this dream, he returned to his boyhood.

According to the wooden desks placed side by side in twos and threes, only six rows are enough for a class of students in this small county school. The overhead fan rotates slowly, stirring up the dull summer air, and the cicadas are chirping in the woods outside the window. Screaming, making his heart hotter, he packed his schoolbag and carried it on one shoulder. Before leaving, he wiped off the writing on the blackboard of linear equations in two variables, locked the door of the classroom, and walked out of the teaching building as the last group of students to leave.

It's as if the dean's math teacher stood at the school gate and watched every student leave. In this small school, the few teachers take turns to be on duty every day.

"It's so late." The math teacher said to him with a smile.

"Today is on duty." He said goodbye to the teacher, turned into the small shop next to him after leaving the school gate, bought a pack of sweet ice cubes for fifty cents, opened them and put a piece in his mouth.

As dusk fell, the senior students who were playing basketball on the playground saw him and shouted, "Wei Hongzhi! Don't play basketball!"

"No, I have to go home for dinner. My mother leaves work early today." He declined the invitation, turned into the alley of the residential building in front of the school, found his bicycle, and rode home leisurely.

This small town built on coal mines has a population of only 3. A school, a formal hospital, a medium-sized supermarket, and four residential quarters are lined up on both sides of the main road. The wasteland was brought to life, towns were built, and 1 people had jobs to support their families.

Weihong's father is an underground excavator. Although he has the highest salary in the mine except for the leader, he is so tired that he can't even lift his hands every time he finishes work. He almost sleeps for most of the day. His mother is a ground worker. Leisurely, with a salary that is as scarce as the workload, but one of them goes to the well, so a dual-career family can live a prosperous life in a small town.

Cycling from the school on the west side of the main road to the residential area on the east side, after 5 minutes, Wei Hongzhi parked the car downstairs at home and went upstairs with the key. He opened the door to find his dad sitting in the living room watching TV.

"Dad, what about my mom?"

"Cooking." His father saw him changing shoes at the door, and suddenly asked, "Xiaohong, what do you think your parents will give you a younger brother and sister?"

"It's not good." He said without even raising his head, "I hate children. The day before yesterday my cousin brought the child over and almost annoyed me to death. My head hurts from crying. If you want to live, you might as well give birth to a kitten." Dogs, I like them."

Father didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Look at what you said."

"I don't care, anyway, I don't like it, if I give birth, I might beat her secretly." Wei Hongzhi walked into his small bedroom with his schoolbag in his hand, "Going to do my homework, call me for dinner."

At that time, he was 13 years old, in the first year of junior high school, and in the rebellious period. He naively thought that this small town could allow him to live his whole life. He liked kittens and puppies, and wanted to be the only child in the family.

Wei Hongzhi never thought that there would be a day when he could recall the past 20 years ago in his dreams, just as he never thought that one day he would settle in a super-first-tier big city. The coal mines that once nourished them were gradually exhausted due to mining, and the ground The subsidence became a sinkhole, reeds grew, fish and waterfowl settled in it, and more and more people left for a more open world, just like him.

The moment he woke up, Wei Hongzhi felt as if he had passed away.

It was pitch black outside, and the electronic clock on the wall showed 4:12. He slept for a full ten hours, his mouth was dry, and he was a little dizzy from the dream.Que Ning was lying next to him and fell asleep, still hooking his fingers and did not let go, Wei Hongzhi stared at him, only softness remained in his heart, he rolled over lightly and got out of bed, went to the bathroom, came back and lay down again When he got down, Que Ning hugged his arm.

"Woke you up?" he asked softly.

"I didn't sleep too deeply, not too sleepy." Que Ning leaned on his shoulder, this was the most peaceful moment of the night, the outside was so quiet that there was no sound of vehicles passing by, "I want to go home. "

"We'll go back after dawn." Wei Hongzhi didn't tell Que Ning about Wang Shumei's illness for the time being, otherwise Que Ning would definitely not be able to show up and go back. He has just been rescued, so it's better to calm down.

For a while, neither of them felt sleepy anymore. Wei Hongzhi turned on the night light by the bed, and wanted to take a bath. He was so dizzy that he was so busy that he sweated and dried again and again. Hand, face stuck to his arm.

The air conditioner was a bit cold. He took the remote control to increase the temperature, and saw the ultra-thin Okamoto digital on the bedside table. After resting, those longings surged up again. After a brief separation, the final crisis was resolved. He He desperately wants to confirm that Que Ning is indeed still by his side through some other means.

Wei Hongzhi forced himself to look away from the pink box and said, "Then I'll take a shower."

The warm water washed away the sweat stains, and finally they were no longer sticky. Wei Hongzhi wiped his hair half dry, wiped off the white mist on the mirror, looked at himself for a while, opened the door and went out.

Que Ning had also sat up, and was pressing one hand on the bedside table as if studying something. He looked at Wei Hongzhi, blinked, and opened the pink packing box that caught Wei Hongzhi's attention 10 minutes ago, saying:

"Maybe I have to pay a part of the rent, you don't mind?"
