we are not human

In the blink of an eye, the New Year's Eve came, and Zhou Xiaoxiao also received a lot of New Year's greetings on his mobile phone. He read them one by one and found that there were no late names, so he was inevitably a little disappointed.

Yao Li came over and put one hand on his shoulder, bent down and said softly, "The Spring Festival Gala is not interesting, how about taking you to the suburbs to set off fireworks tonight?"

"Oh, okay," Zhou Xiaoxiao said with a full face of excitement, thinking that his mother might not agree, and then fell down, "but my mother must agree."

"Just talk to your mother," Yao Li patted his head.

"Mom!" Zhou Xiaoxiao shouted.

"What's wrong?" Li Xiaoqin's voice came from upstairs.

"My cousin and I are going to the suburbs to set off fireworks tonight, we must go!"

"Then..." Li Xiaoqin paused, "Be careful."

"Got it!" Zhou Xiaoxiao pouted, he was no longer a three-year-old child.

After dinner, Zhou Xiaoxiao hurriedly pulled Yao Li to go out.Before one leg crossed the threshold, Li Xiaoqin called her back again.

"Come on, put on the scarf to be cold outside." Li Xiaoqin wrapped Zhou Xiaoxiao up with the scarf and three coats.

Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at the full-length mirror in the corner of the living room, turned her head and blinked at Yao Li, "Look, do I look like a mummy?" Yao Li laughed silently.

Li Xiaoqin slapped him on the back of the head, "What nonsense are you talking about during the Chinese New Year?"

"You hurt me so much!" Zhou Xiaoxiao felt dizzy in her mind for a moment, thinking that Li Xiaoqin hit too hard and didn't care, she complained while covering her head.

"As long as you are delicate and fleshy," Li Xiaoqin straightened his tousled hair for him, "It hurts just for a moment, and those who don't know think I gave birth to a daughter."

Zhou Xiaoxiao frowned, obviously disapproving of her statement of "just for a while".

"Then auntie, let's go first." Seeing that Zhou Xiaoxiao was almost taken care of, Yao Li smiled and took him to say goodbye to Li Xiaoqin.

"Okay, let's go," Li Xiaoqin patted Zhou Xiaoxiao's head in satisfaction.

"Huh? Mom, dad isn't coming back today?" It's almost nine o'clock.

"He has something to do, and I just want to go to my good sister's place to play, so be careful at night," Li Xiaoqin warned worriedly.

"Don't worry, auntie, I will definitely bring back my cousin without a single hair," Yao Li replied in a good-tempered manner, and Zhou Xiaoxiao let Yao Li take him out without saying a word.

As soon as he went out, Zhou Xiaoxiao started to trot, and after two steps, he stopped slowly, "How do we get there?" The suburbs are quite far away, right?

"Look there," Yao Li pointed to a street lamp beside the road.

What are you doing looking at street lights?Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't understand, so when he saw what was under the streetlight, he found a black car parked under the streetlight. It was too dark to see what it looked like, Zhou Xiaoxiao 囧.

"Didi!" The people in the car honked their horns twice anxiously when they saw that they were delayed.

Someone in the car?Zhou Xiaoxiao was curious.

Yao Li opened the door to let Zhou Xiaoxiao go in first, then went in by himself and closed the door.

The lights in the car flickered on, and Zhou Xiaoxiao was forced to squint his eyes until he got used to the light in the car before opening them.

When he opened his eyes, the person in the driver's seat turned his head, Zhou Xiaoxiao froze for a moment, why did this person look so familiar?

This is a young man about 25 or [-] years old, with a handsome appearance, a nose and eyes, and short hair. He actually wears a black long-sleeved shirt in the cold weather.

The young man waved at him loudly, "Don't remember me? I met you at Baize Temple that day."

"I have a little impression," Zhou Xiaoxiao said truthfully.

The young man didn't care when he said that, "Then let me introduce myself again. My name is Yaoge, and I'm Yaoli's younger brother."

Zhou Xiaoxiaomo, very simple self-introduction.

"Hello," Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say after such a sentence. He is not an enthusiastic person, otherwise he wouldn't have had only Han Ai as his friend for so many years.

"Um... hello!" Yaoge didn't know what else to say, and the two of them just stared at each other.

Yao Li, who had been forgotten for a long time, couldn't bear to look at him anymore, "Don't you still drive?" This idiot is still as stupid no matter how many years he lives.

As soon as Yao Ge heard it, he turned around and started the car, muttering something, but Zhou Xiaoxiao couldn't hear it clearly.

The scene outside the car window is not clear at all, only the street lamps are quickly left behind, Zhou Xiaoxiao always stares at a certain street lamp until it is far behind and can no longer be seen Change to the next street light when you reach the trail.

He suddenly thought, is he like a street lamp to Chi Ming?Chi Ming has been moving forward and getting stronger.But he always stayed where he was, although Chi Ming would look at him, but if Chi Ming walked too far and could no longer see his shadow, would his eyes be replaced by someone else?

No, he is not a spotless street lamp.He wants to become stronger, he wants to one day be able to keep up with Chi Ming's pace and stand shoulder to shoulder with him.The desire to be strong has never been stronger.

Zhou Xiaoxiao leaned on the back of the chair and fell asleep without knowing why. The dream was very restless, always feeling that someone was pushing him, and someone was talking non-stop, chattering like chatter.He seemed to be locked in a closed space, because he tried to move in his dream but he was blocked no matter which direction he was in. After trying a few times, he became angry and cursed that chatterer and the person who locked him up alone. Note students.Until one day, the chatter disappeared, and the person who locked him also disappeared, and there was nothing blocking him when he walked around.So he just found a comfortable place and slept peacefully.

Zhou Xiaoxiao waved his hand, trying to open the hand that pinched his nose.

"Xiao Xiao, wake up, we are here."

Huh?Whose voice is so gentle?It seems a bit familiar!I go!Isn't that chatter! ?He is back! !

Frightened, Zhou Xiaoxiao opened her eyes suddenly, and was frightened by a face that was so close at hand. She shrank her neck in fright, only to realize that it was Yaoge.

"What are you doing!?" Scared him to death.

"Wake you up," Yao Ge made a gesture of pinching his nose.

"Okay," Yao Li patted Zhou Xiaoxiao's head, "We're here, let's get out of the car."

Outside the car... there are a lot of people.

There are several young couples showing their love openly, and the couple under the tree, I can pretend that I don't see what you are doing...

Seeing this situation, Zhou Xiaoxiao became silent.

Yao Li and Yao Ge removed several salutes from the car, and after moving away, Yao Ge lit them one by one.

The moment the salute was fired, the sky seemed to be lit up. The cannon was purple, and half of the sky was dyed purple.

Zhou Xiaoxiao's mind went blank, staring at the sky, the loud sound of the salute made him temporarily lose his ability to think.

Yaoge looked enviously at the thin boy under the night, thinking that Yaoli hadn't taken him to watch the fireworks, and then silently despised her girlish heart.

Yao Li could tell what he was thinking by looking at his expression, and tapped his head, "Don't think too much."

"Ah?" Yaoge turned his head and looked at Yaoli with a silly expression. The salute was so loud that he didn't hear Yaoli's words, but he didn't understand why Yaoli hit him again.

"Idiot!" Yao Li touched the place he hit, and smiled.

After the salute, the world was completely silent, only a few young couples were discussing the grand occasion of the fireworks.

There was no one talking in the car for a while, Zhou Xiaoxiao rubbed his ears with his hands a little uncomfortable, the noise just now suddenly quieted down, his ears were still buzzing.

After a while, Yao Li said, "Go back."

Yao Ge looked back at him, "Where are you going?"

"Send Xiaoxiao home." He took out the lighter as if he wanted to light a cigarette, but after thinking about it, he put it back.

On the way back, Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't fall asleep again, he was just thinking about a question, a question he had been thinking about since Yaoli arrived.

"You're not my cousin, right?" He had never heard of a relative named Yao in his family.

"Yes," Yao Li turned to look at him with gentle eyes, this man, what he most wanted to tell him was long time no see.There is always a kind of person in this world that you will never forget him. You may not love him, or family affection, or even friendship, but you can always feel at ease in them, no matter what they become , you can recognize him at a glance.Feng Linzhi Yu Yaoli is such a person, so, Feng Lin, long time no see.

The car stopped with a creak, Zhou Xiaoxiao opened the door and jumped off, winking at him through the window glass, "I knew it a long time ago!"

After saying this, the black car disappeared before his eyes as if it had never appeared before.

He just knew, what cousin, hum, fox.

He rang the doorbell several times, but no one came to answer the door. He took out the key and opened the door. There was no one at home.

After closing the door and taking a shower alone, he was ready to go to bed. Before going to bed, he checked his phone and found an unread message.

Chi Ming: Happy New Year, wish you grow taller.

Time: 00.00

I didn't know why, so I became happy, rolled around on the bed a few times, and replied:

Happy New Year to you too, may you become less handsome than me!

He fell asleep happily, and had no dreams all night.
