[Love and Producer] Time is long

(One)

In the thick glass prison, a boy hangs his head and struggles to breathe. He picks the drip stand beside him with his fingers, silently enduring the emptiness in his belly.

"Still refusing to eat?"

"Yes, it is only maintained by intravenous injection. This kid's evol level has reached three, and he is only 11 years old. He must be an evoler above five in the future."

"Don't starve. Send him among those kids, and he'll eat."

"Yes."

(two)

A strange boy came to the orphanage.

He is older than most of the children, and his childish little face has a kind of aloofness and seriousness that is not commensurate with his age. He is always indifferent and indifferent to the other children who are noisy and fighting around him every day. A demeanor about oneself.He doesn't play with anyone, and usually spends his game time quietly facing the high wall of the orphanage, thinking about his own affairs.

"Pretentious..."

The other boys didn't like him, and this kid's out of place seemed to be only towards them, but he was especially fond of the adults who took care of them, and sometimes he would occasionally show them a childlike smile.He can always have more playtime and freedom.

The girls had polarized impressions of him, some thought he was scary, while others were curious about him.

"Youran, don't you always want to talk to him, go quickly, he's there?"

"I don't? He looks so scary..."

"Go quickly, he doesn't eat people." The little girls pushed Youran out of the corridor.

He frowned, and looked back at the movement behind him, only to see a little girl standing not far away, with a timid face, squinting at him.Seeing that he turned his head to look at her, he took a few small steps back, sticking to the wall and moving away in small steps.As if he couldn't see himself in this way...

He chuckled lightly, didn't care, just turned around and continued to think about his own affairs.

Suddenly, a small finger poked his lower back.It was the "little invisible man". "What's up?"

"Hmm... the pudding cup for lunch, don't you like it?" The little girl's question stunned him.

"What do you ask for this?"

"If you don't like it, can you give it to me?"

He had actually noticed the little girl a long time ago.Every time I eat lunch, I stare at him, and I turn out to be coveting the sweet and greasy pudding cup.Hearing her childish voice, she knew that she was a kid who was many years younger than him, and she still looked like a greedy cat in such a ghostly place, which really made him dumbfounded.

He sat on the railing, and she just looked up at him blankly.

"Aren't you tired of looking at me like this?"

"Tired, but I'm not tall enough." He took a closer look, and found that the round man really had short arms and short legs.He bowed his head and smiled, reaching out to pull her up.Seemingly seeing the contempt in his eyes, the little girl suddenly felt a little unhappy.A pair of small hands clung to the railing and wanted to kick up, but the wall was always slippery and couldn't be stepped on.

"Stupid, what are you trying to do..." He still gave her a hand, and with the help of his strength, she managed to get her foot onto the edge of the low wall, and she hugged the railing with great effort. sit up.

"I'm not a fool, I'm Youran." She puffed out her small chest, looking proud.As the cool wind blew, she flicked the hair sticking to her face, took a deep breath, squinted her eyes and showed a silly smile.

"Little devil, what are you laughing at?"

"It's very comfortable and cool here."

"Sitting so high, aren't you afraid?"

"Not afraid!"

The afterglow of light shone on her little red face, which made him feel a little funny. "Here's the pudding cup for lunch."

"Huh, really?" The little girl's eyes suddenly flashed like a greedy cat, and the little pride just now has long since disappeared.

"Dessert for dinner, too, if you stop sneaking behind me and watching me."

"I'm not sneaky, and I don't like the taste of ginger stewed eggs. I will be criticized every time I can't finish it..." The little girl wrinkled her nose unhappily.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Li Zeyan."

"Hmm... what a strange name..."

"Where?!"

"Are you an orphan too?" Leisurely looked at him, after all, he came later than himself and his friends.

"No."

"Then you have parents, why are you here?"

"Because..." He hesitated a little, thinking that for this little idiot who only thought about one more pudding cup all day long, it would be better not to know some things.After all, those people only came for themselves.

"Because my parents have gone out to work, I will live here temporarily."

"Temporarily?" A look of disappointment flashed in the little girl's eyes. "Then I won't have a second pudding cup after you leave..."

"..." He suddenly felt very worried about how such a fool survived in the orphanage.

(three)

After that, Li Zeyan had a little follower behind him.

"Yanyan, don't go so fast, wait for me!"

"How many times have I said it, don't call me Yan Yan."

"You always call me an idiot!" the little girl protested with her fists outstretched.

"You are really an idiot..." He frowned and reached out to wipe off the biscuit crumbs sticking to the corner of her mouth for her, "Call me Brother Zeyan."

"No! I just want to tell you to talk!"

"Why do you keep following me?"

"Because Yan Yan gave me delicious food."

He was speechless, so the five-year-old kid really didn't understand anything...

"Does anyone follow you when they give you food?"

"Yeah!" The little girl nodded earnestly, counting with her little fingers. "Xiao Xia gave me a pudding cup, and he and I are good friends. Xiao Ning gave me three, and I will help her clean together. Xiao Ye gave me ten milk popsicles, and Nini gave me a bag before. Christmas candy, I eat everything they don't like. Words are the best, give me the pudding cup every day, and eat the ginger ale for me. And never want me help with what..."

"I'm not like some big baby who still has a partial eclipse at the age of five." He didn't know whether to be happy or worried. "Partial eclipse is not good for your health, and I can't always eat for you..."

"Why?" The little girl pouted, "I don't want to walk away, I want Yanyan to keep giving me the pudding cup! Hmph—"

As long as this matter is mentioned recently, the little guy is immediately unhappy.The way she expresses her displeasure is to half-hang on him like a koala, letting him half-drag her forward.

"Don't be like this, you are very heavy, you know that?"

"No! I just want to cling to you! See if you don't give me the pudding cup!"

(four)

"You were arrested too, right?"

Li Zeyan could tell that it was the boy named Xiao Ye leisurely, who always looked like a fool all day long, didn't talk much, looked thinner than other children, but had clever eyes.

"Also?" He grasped the key point of that sentence at once.

"Escape. How about cooperating with me?"

Li Zeyan doesn't like him, but it has been a month, and he has observed every place and every schedule in this orphanage, and he has not found a way to sneak out. Now that someone mentions it, he might as well listen to it. explain:

"What kind of cooperation law?"

"Christmas is another month away, and the teachers in the orphanage will be on vacation that week, and they will temporarily invite people from outside to watch us..." Xiaoye leaned into Li Zeyan's ear, "Use your evol to add What I know here, I won't have a problem running out."

"You..." He watched Xiao Ye's secretive smile vigilantly, he actually knew that he was an evoler...

"What about the rest?"

"Others?" Xiao Ye sneered, "Those children are different from us. They don't have parents, and no one will miss them if they stay here. Maybe they are safer here, and children with evol are found outside. die."

For this boy's maturity and even cruelty beyond his age, his intuition told him that it was necessary to keep a certain distance from him.Also, according to his hint, all the children here are evolers?

He was thinking about how to respond when the little follower came over.In his hand, he held a bunch of small purple and white wild flowers in a mess.The top of the little yellow skirt was dusty, and her feet were also stained with mud.

"Yanyan, is it pretty?"

"Where did it get so dirty?" Li Zeyan frowned and looked at her embarrassed look. He reached out and picked out two large pieces of broken leaves on her head, and there were countless pieces wrapped in her hair, like a bird's nest. I don't know. Where did it go just now?

Suddenly, he noticed a dried bloodstain on her forehead, as if it had hit some sharp corner.

"Xiaoxia took me to explore the old courtyard, and saw that I found a lot of flowers. Are they beautiful?" She smiled and piled a bouquet full of flowers in front of him, but he frowned and remained silent.

"Yanyan, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't you feel pain when you hit your head?" He stretched out his hand and pressed hard on the bruise beside the scar on her forehead, and she squinted her eyes and let out an ouch.

"pain……"

"You deserve it. How old are you and you still run around like crazy!" He suddenly felt agitated, and his tone was unusually severe.I don't know if I'm angry at her recklessness and not knowing how to take care of herself, or at the escape plan that seems to come a little too soon.He turned his back and didn't look at her again.

"You...why are you so fierce..." The little girl whimpered from behind.

"The flowers Xiao Youran picked are beautiful!..." It was Xiao Ye's voice, "Don't cry, I'll take you to find a bottle to raise the flowers."

"Um……"

After a while, he managed to suppress the unruly anguish in his heart.Turning around, I saw the back of Xiao Ye holding her hand and leaving.

"Sure enough, he's a kid who can go away with anyone who coaxes him..." He sighed, talking to himself, but somehow he felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.I'm used to being entangled by this little koala, and it feels strange to see her dragging others away.

As if feeling the gaze behind her, You Ran suddenly turned her head, wanting to confirm whether Yan Yan really ignored her.The moment I turned around, I found that he was also standing there looking at me.

"Xiao Ye, thank you, but you don't need to take me to find the bottle." She let go of Xiao Ye's hand, and flew back to his side in a small trot.The dirty little face was mixed with the tears and snot that hadn't been wiped off just now, and he was crying and laughing at the same time.

"Yan Yan, big bastard!"

"Idiot, how many times have I told you not to ask me to talk..." His nose was also a little sour, and he had completely given up his white shirt, so he casually raised his sleeve and wiped her face like a little cat.

"Yanyan, Yanyan, Yanyan!" She threw herself on him so hard that she almost knocked him down.Somehow, the straw rope binding the wildflowers was broken, and those slender wildflowers were scattered all over the ground.

"Look at you..." He nodded her soft little nose, and knelt down to tidy her up.Just now watching her run towards him, the sunlight behind her surrounded her small body in a circle of golden color, and the smile on that dirty little face was like a gust of warm wind, making him feel warm again. He couldn't bring his face up to her either.

"Didn't you just go with whoever was nice to you? Why did you run back again?" After closing the flowers for her again, he took her hand and walked back slowly.

"Hmm --" You Ran bit her finger and thought, with a sly smile on her face, "Yan Yan, do you really think I'm a fool? I can still tell who gives me more cups of pudding..."

"..." He was really not happy with this kind of answer, and he was really not sure if this guy would be cheated by a huge pudding cup one day.

He actually wanted to take this idiot away with him a little bit.

(Fives)

When the game time was over, no one saw Youran appearing again.

"You all go back first, we will look for her." The two security guards pulled all the children back into the hall, the sky outside gradually darkened, and there was a heavy cloud in the sky, as if a thunderstorm was about to come.

"Have you heard any ghost stories about the old courtyard here?" An older girl mentioned it first, her voice was low, and her face was secretive.

"Don't talk about this, it's scary!" Xiao Xia frowned and complained, "Youran is still outside!"

"That's why I want to say it. It is said that the ghost is specially catching little girls with long hair, cutting off their hair, and then making them into dolls..."

"Oh...don't say any more, it's too scary..." Another timid child covered his ears with his hands and hid beside the other friends.

A horrific lightning bolt fell from the sky, splitting a crack in the dense dark gray clouds, followed by an explosion of thunder, which frightened the already tense child into crying.

"Everyone, get out of the window!" The aunt who took care of the children stretched out her hand and closed the window.But I saw Xiao Zeyan was still looking at the pouring rain outside.

"Don't be afraid, Auntie will take you to lunch!" She touched the little boy's head and bowed to hold his little hand.

Then, as if for a moment, the fingers closed into empty fists, and the little boy disappeared in front of his eyes out of thin air.

(six)

He didn't know where the little guy hid, he only knew that she was terrified of the sound of thunder.There was also a thunderstorm one night before, and she hugged her little rabbit and nestled under her bed.

It was raining heavily, and he knew that it would not be long before the guards of the entire orphanage would be dispatched to find him and Youran, and his evol could only last for a short time.The cold water dripped into his back along the nape of his neck. He had never felt so cold before, as if he had been thrown into an ice cave and floated up and down several times. The coldness penetrated through every pore. The deepest part of the bone replaces every trace of body temperature with a stinging chill.

As if by will, they made it to the old compound where they last saw her.Raindrops dripped from the dilapidated eaves into a dense water curtain. The doors of the courtyard house, which had been abandoned for many years, were locked tightly. Through the small old and vague windows, only a few dusty and dilapidated tables and chairs near the window sill could be seen. , and then inside is a mass of darkness.

"Youran—" He called out the little guy's name cautiously, always looking around to see if there were guards who were also looking for him.Rounding the front porch, he suddenly noticed a light on the ground ahead.It was coming from a window almost touching the ground.

"How did you discuss with him?" The voice of a strange elderly man.

"He hasn't agreed yet." A boy's voice, Li Zeyan could tell it was Xiao Ye's voice.

"He's gotten very close to that kid named Youran recently."

"Also... not at all."

"Xiao Ye, lying is not a good boy's behavior." The man's cold voice carried a hint of threat.

"He can't get along with anyone, I will..."

Rustle -- ah sneeze -- a sneezing sound with a girl's coquettish voice was especially harsh in the continuous rain.

"Who?!" It was the man's voice, followed by the sound of climbing stairs.

Li Zeyan turned his head nervously to look in the direction of the sneezing sound, only to see a small bright yellow ribbon tail protruding from the short bush.I thought it was bad, but it was too late to think about the past.I saw that the man had slowly come out from the narrow and dark stairs next to him, wearing a white coat and a gray beard.Li Zeyan recognized at a glance that it was the man who had been interrogating him before he was caught.

The man squinted his eyes and looked around. Under the heavy rain, he seemed to be unable to find the direction of the sound just now.Li Zeyan lowered his head and carefully hid his body behind a wooden pillar next to him, secretly watching his movements, praying in his heart that the guy would not make any weird noises at this time.

The surroundings were so quiet that only his beating heartbeat and the continuous sound of rain remained.

Suddenly, a gust of cool wind blew by, and the coolness in his body seemed to intensify several times in an instant.He took a deep breath, opened his mouth subconsciously, and silenced the sound of his upper teeth hitting his lower teeth.

Ah, sneezing—another soft sneezing sound, which made the man who was about to leave find the direction of the bush this time.He approached slowly, slowly stretching out his hand in the air, like a cunning and cruel fox's hand, with a greedy smile on the corner of his mouth.

"do not move--"

You Ran suddenly felt that someone was hugging her from behind, and then covered her mouth.Feeling cold and frightened, she lowered her head subconsciously, and bit the man's tiger's mouth with all her strength.

"Ah—hiss—" The severe pain made the man let go of her, but the growl from behind sounded familiar.

"Yanyan—" She looked in surprise at the boy who was not far behind him with his head bowed and kept shaking his hands.Two rows of arc-shaped tooth marks were left on his tiger's mouth, and blood had already oozed from several places. "How did you scare me..." She didn't know whether it was fear or worry, she couldn't help crying.

"Don't cry yet, come with me..." He lowered his voice, stretched out his hand to take her little hand, and started running to the depths of the woods in the backyard.

Time will start running again at any moment.
