Shimmer Forest

"That child...is too close to our world..." The man in the blue shirt withdrew his gaze, and his originally lonely tone suddenly rose slightly: "So, it's better to keep a distance between each other——Are you right?"

"He has clearly realized that you are coming. If you don't show up, he will definitely get to the bottom of it based on his personality." The man in Xuanyi looked away, as if deliberately avoiding his question.

"Since when did you know him so well?" The man in the green shirt reluctantly stuck to him again and continued to ask, with a hint of narrowness in his tone.

"It's not thanks to you!" The other party answered fiercely word by word, with a bit of gnashing of teeth.

"Then you have to thank me." He replied with a sneer.Before the other party broke out completely, he stopped teasing at the right time and returned to the topic: "It's okay, even if I don't explain it, he still believes in that person."

"The trust between them will not be easily disintegrated by a word from an outsider. No one can intervene in their world." After a pause, he looked at the person beside him, with the corners of his lips slightly raised: "It's like no one can It's like stepping between you and me."

"..." The man in Xuanyi looked back at him, not knowing what to say for a moment.This person always made him angry for no reason, and before he was about to explode, he would always say something nice to quench his anger.

Repeatedly like this, as if playing with him between applause.What's even more exasperating is that he was willing to accept it.

"...I really lost to you." He sighed and finally gave up struggling.The man in the green shirt seemed to have expected his reaction long ago, and the smile on his lips deepened.

Neither of them spoke anymore, they looked side by side at the end of the road.As the sun sets, the golden light spreads out, burning the clouds in the sky red.

-------------------------------------------------

At night, Su Jin sat alone by the river, looking at the sky full of stars.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard some noise from the grass behind him, so he sighed and said helplessly, "Come out."

The voice in the grass paused for a few seconds, as if hesitating whether to appear or not.After a while, Uncle Wu came out from the grass, scratched his head and smirked: "Oh, Xiao Jin, you're here too, what a coincidence..."

"You've been squatting there for an hour...Aren't your feet numb..." Looking at Uncle Wu who was pretending to be a chance encounter, Su Jin's mouth twitched, and he unceremoniously exposed him.

"...Oh, don't care about these details..." Uncle Wu didn't intend to hide any more, and sat down beside him, "Why? Thinking about life here?"

"No, it's just watching the stars. He answered casually, and looked at Uncle Wu with his knees and head tilted, and asked straightforwardly: "...Did Wu Hao ask you to come here?"

"...Oh, I really can't hide anything from you!" Uncle Wu laughed loudly when his intention was exposed, and patted him on the back forcefully: "In that case, I'll just say it straight, that coward was afraid that you would see him Not happy, so let me persuade you."

"...There's nothing to be unhappy about..." Su Jin said casually.

"You have to trust that cowardly boy. I brought him up and know him very well." Uncle Wu thought he was still depressed, so he patted his chest to persuade him: "He will never have an affair!"

"...I know..." Was it really because of this?He got dizzy when he heard the word affair.At that time, one of them lost his temper in the street, and as a result, people from the whole village came to enlighten him one by one.It's hard to hide by the river, okay, Uncle Wu came to talk about it again.

"You know why you don't want to talk to him?" Uncle Wu took out a thermos and took a sip of water, and asked patiently.He felt that this brat was really awkward and difficult to deal with. He said he didn't care, everyone saw him getting angry on the street; he said he didn't care, he looked okay now.I really don't understand the thinking of children.

"...Uncle Wu..." Su Jin stared at somewhere on the ground in a trance, and said sullenly: "I... have a friend whom I haven't seen for a long time."

"And then?" Seeing that he was really troubled, Uncle Wu guided him and motioned him to continue.

"I miss him very much... I can feel that he is by my side, but he refuses to come out to see me." Su Jin thought about it, slowly and slowly narrating, if he didn't know this matter, he would ask Uncle Wu to discuss it, Is it really appropriate.

"...Is it a friend from another world?" Uncle Wu tried to ask as if he had heard something.For a long time, he was afraid that Su Jin would get lost in the other world, so he took care of him carefully, trying to separate him from the other world.But unknowingly, he still formed a deep bond with creatures from other worlds.It's hard to tell whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, but it still worries him.

Su Jin nodded without denying it.

"Then it's for your own good that he doesn't show up." Uncle Wu rubbed his hair and comforted him softly.

"I know..." Feeling his generous and reassuring palm, Su Jin closed her eyes and murmured, "But... I really want to see him again and chat with him like before... ...so close to each other...I always feel...the distance between each other has become so far away."

"No matter how far away, he is your important friend." Uncle Wu looked at him with pity in his eyes: "Because he is a very important friend, I am afraid that you will be addicted to other worlds, so I don't want any misunderstanding between you." Too much intersection."

After a pause, he responded to Su Jin's gaze and smiled: "The reason why he appeared by your side is to tell you that he is doing well. Therefore, you should also live happily."

"Even if we don't meet, he still conveys important thoughts to you." He gently combed Su Jin's hair with his fingers, and even his voice softened: "What a gentle friend."

His restless mood was slowly calmed down by his soft words.Yes, that person came here, but avoided him so carefully, full of consideration and attention to him.However, he has been obsessed with the matter of meeting, while ignoring the important intentions of the other party.

"You're right." The corners of Su Jin's lips raised slightly, and his eyes were full of starlight. "I didn't expect that you are also very good at comforting people."

"Haha, after living for so many years, I always have some life experience and insights." Uncle Wu was not at all modest, and responded with a smile: "Okay, it's good that the troubles are relieved. I thought you were because of Wu Hao. The brat is unhappy, so it's because of others!"

"If you say that..." Su Jin shifted his gaze to the starry night, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "The person who had the affair seems to be me..."

"Pfft—" Uncle Wu spit out all the tea he drank into his mouth in one breath, originally he just wanted to persuade this kid not to make trouble, but unexpectedly, there was such a magical development.He stared at Su Jin who hadn't recovered from his shock in shock, and jumped up in fright to persuade: "No, no, no, no, Xiao Jin, is there something wrong with my kid? No, no, you have to think about it carefully." Ah, even though that kid Wu Hao has no skills, you know how good he is, right? He likes you to death, if he finds out, maybe something will happen..."

Uncle Wu persuaded him at a loss, and Su Jin, who realized what he said, finally came back to his senses, sighed and explained unhurriedly: "I didn't mean that."

"Huh?" Uncle Wu, who was still chattering and confused, finally calmed down, and asked cautiously, "What does that mean?

"

Su Jin glanced at him helplessly, sighed and said softly: "...my mind is full of other people's business... I always feel a little... sorry for the muscular man..."

"Pfft!" Uncle Wu never thought that this precocious and carefree guy would have such troubles.He couldn't help laughing, and ruffled the other party's hair more vigorously: "So you're worrying about this!"
