Brother Jack, don't kill me!

Lotte's voice was very soft, trembling, and said, "I'm sorry, An Li."

An Li's voice stopped abruptly, she crossed her arms, turned around and stared at Lott, and then she seemed to cry, and ran out while crying, saying, "An Li don't want to be your friend anymore!"

The door was slammed shut.

"Lotte, is your popularity like this?"

Lot was silent for a while, then he shook his head and said, "No, An Li is usually a very good friend. It's just that I didn't go to lunch with her today, so—"

Xia Youjie frowned and asked, "Have you eaten your box lunch?"

Lot choked, he looked away, grabbed the quilt with both hands, and looked like he didn't want to talk.

Judging by his appearance, he must have given the box lunch to someone else.

Lott whispered, "I'm sorry, Jay."

Xia Youjie sighed, and said, "You don't have to apologize to me. You're not a child anymore, don't do this, it's worrying."

Lott gave a soft "hmm", and he said, "Understood."

"I will."

Xia Youjie lowered his head, and he asked, "Do you like her, that girl?"

Lott didn't answer.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly fell silent, and Lott lay down with his back to Xia Youjie, as if he was angry, but in fact he was not angry.

Lott grabbed the corner of the quilt, he held it so tightly that his fingers turned white, and his messy white hair was scattered on the pillowcase, making the bloodstains on it very conspicuous, because of the lying posture, a small piece The quilt slid down, exposing his smooth shoulders.

There was the sound of the package being torn open from behind.

Xia Youjie called his name softly from behind.

Lott didn't respond, he didn't know how to answer.

Then, the hospital bed seemed to sink a little bit, and an arm appeared in front of Lott's eyes. He blinked, looked up, and saw Xia Youjie's silent and serious face.

The incandescent lamps hanging high in the medical room cast pale light, and a circle of shadows was reflected on the white sheets because of people's movements.

Xia Youjie lowered his head, his tightly pressed lips opened at this moment, and he asked in a deep voice, "Lotte, do you like her?"

Lott shook his head, lowered his eyes, and said, "No."

"But—" Lott said, pointing fingers, "An Li said that I was her best friend, and she couldn't live without me. I just... Besides, she also likes Wormcats."

Xia Youjie laughed and asked, "So, do you like her?"

Luo Te was grabbed by the wrist, he had to raise his head and look up at Xia Youjie.

"Like it?"

It didn't hurt that the wrist was pinched, but it was restrained and unable to move.

Lott said: "I don't like An Li, what I like is—"

When he said "yes," Lott shut up, his eyes moving wildly.

Xia Youjie's voice did not have a sense of persecution, but was as gentle as ever. He asked, "What is it, huh?"

This kind of tone made Lotte stop talking, and he didn't want to say any more.

So he chose to remain silent.

Xia Youjie asked, "Is it because Luo Te didn't talk because he was hungry?"

Luo Te nodded. He watched Xia Youjie reach out to pick up the unpacked bread from the table next to him. Xia Youjie reached out and took out a piece of bread, saying, "Open your mouth."

Lott did as he did. The sandwich bread was stuffed into his mouth, and he chewed it subconsciously. The taste was sweet, and Lott liked sweet things very much.

Lotte quickly swallowed the piece of bread. Just as he was about to speak, Xia Youjie took his hand and wiped the bread crumbs from the corner of his mouth.

Xia Youjie asked, "Isn't it sweet?"

"Yes." Lott nodded, he laughed and said, "I like it very much, Jay."

The corners of Xia Youjie's eyes were raised, and his purple eyes were particularly eye-catching at this moment, as if they took away all the colors around them.

"Are you full?"

"Well, actually I'm not very hungry."

"Then let's get some sleep." Xia Youjie said, "I'm asking you for leave. How about I carry you back tonight?"

"it is good!"

It's the kind of treatment you get when you're a kid.

Luo Te grabbed Xia Youjie's wrist with his backhand. He raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I'll wait for you, Jie."

After saying this, Lott moved closer, he closed his eyes as he saw in the TV series, and kissed Xia Youjie on the cheek, like a superficial touch, as if to cover up , After doing all this, he got back under the sheets.

He even covered his face with a white sheet.

"Sleep well, Lot, then."

As the words fell, there was a sound of footsteps, and then the door was closed.

Lot closed his eyes, and he wiped the corner of his lips with his fingers. There was nothing, but he subconsciously felt the sweetness on his fingertips.

After all, it was the bread that Xia Youjie bought for him, and it was also Jie who fed him. He closed his eyes, trying to laugh out of nowhere, and the corners of his mouth lifted up when he didn't know it.

There seemed to be that sweet taste in his mouth all the time, like honey, obviously what he ate was just a piece of ordinary sandwich bread.

Lot closed his eyes, he couldn't sleep for a long time, turned over repeatedly, he wanted to find his own bug cat pillow, but obviously there was no such thing in the infirmary, so he fantasized about hugging himself Xia Youjie was sleeping, and he remembered that Xia Youjie would be with him when he was just sent to Xia Youjie's house.

A boy who was the same age as him, but a little older, leaned against the back of the bed, holding a story book, and softly told himself a bedtime story. Lott had completely forgotten what the story was, and he only remembered the moonlight that night It was beautiful, the moonlight cast a small circle of silvery white spots through the curtains, illuminating half of Xia Youjie's profile.

It was a handsome face with a gentle smile, very beautiful.

Lot thought, the irritability just now subsided, and he fell asleep after a few minutes.

"Mr. Wiltshire." The Pythian sitting on the oracle smiled and spit out the words, "We meet again. It is rare to see you twice a day."

Lott propped himself up on the ground and stood up. He found himself back in the dream space, such a dark space, only the blood-red light from the wriggling oracle in front of him illuminated everything around him.

When he saw Frey, Lott realized that time had passed, which meant that Xia Youjie would be leaving soon. When he realized this, he couldn't help but clenched his lower lip.

Frey narrowed his four eyes, and said, as if smiling, "You look a little lost to see me, Mr. Lotte Wiltshire."

"No." Lott said, "It's not because of you."

Frey stood up, standing on top of the oracle, his black hair blown by the wind blowing from the oracle's squirming motion.

Frey seemed to be curious, and he asked, "Why is that?"

"Because Xia Youjie is leaving."

"Well, it sounds like your human friend is leaving. Is he dead, broken in two, or fell from a tall building and turned into a mass of organic tissue?"

"certainly not!"

Lot looked up, and he looked at Frey angrily, and said, "You can't curse Jay!"

Frey laughed and said, "You're so cute, Lott. It looks like you're just gone, but what's there to be sad about?"

Lotte's voice was low, and his messy white hair seemed to be hanging down. He said in a muffled voice, "Because Jie is leaving, Jie will not be with me, he will know others, and he may even forget me."

"But he has to go, and I also hope that he can be with his kind." Lott said, "not an ordinary person like me."

Frey covered his mouth and laughed, and he said, "But, when he was around, you didn't want to spend more time with him, did you?"

"That's because Jie has other things to do, and I don't want to disturb him!"

"After all, his departure is not that important to you, is it?"

Lot shook his head and said, "It's very important. Don't you Pythians know how to like it? I—"

Lot covered his mouth, he didn't want to say any more.

This Pythian will definitely not understand, Lott thought, just like the childhood story told by his mother, their entire race is connected spiritually through the oracle, they have never been separated, so naturally they don't know What is the pain of separation.

"In this way, think about the food you eat on the table. Isn't it sad when a chicken is separated from its males and sent to slaughter, and it has been sent to you after countless tortures. from our table."

Frey waved his hand and said, "Of course, you will definitely say, this is different."

"I didn't say that."

Lott said: "You are connected together through the oracle, and you didn't know this kind of relationship at first, because you never separated."

Frey opened his eyes, the smile on his face disappeared, and he said, "Really, do you really think that we all voluntarily connected with the oracle?"

"Not all Pythias are willing to share the emotions in their minds. It was a very long process that eventually led to the destruction of everything."

Lot lowered his eyes and said, "Sorry."

"You are really a good boy." Frey covered his mouth and laughed, "I will give a reminder to the good boy, before you experience emotional problems in adolescence, you'd better solve this oracle on your body."

"It's like a parasite in your brain that takes over and changes you from the inside out until you become one with it."

……

When Luo Te woke up in a daze, he was already being carried by Xia Youjie.

Lot raised his head, and he saw the sun hanging in the sky that was about to fall. The blood-stained sunset covered a large area of ​​the sky, and the lights on the street were turned on.

Luo Te lowered his head, he put his arms around Xia Youjie's neck, found a comfortable position, and put it on Xia Youjie's shoulder again.

Xia Youjie laughed, and at this moment he asked, "Lotte, do you want some apple candy?"

"Hey." Lott's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is it okay?"

"Ah."

"I want to eat, I really want to."

After hearing the answer, Xia Youjie bought a fruit candy from the shopkeeper next to him, and listened to her nagging, the spring festival will be soon, and after that, summer will come soon.

Luo Te thought, and when the cicadas sounded, there was no delay, it was time for Xia Youjie to leave.

Lot held the apple candy in his mouth, and the sweet taste permeated his mouth. He suddenly felt his eyes a little sour, so he lowered his head, hugged Xia Youjie's neck, and asked, "Jie, do you want to eat it?" ?”

Xia Youjie shook his head and said, "No need."

"Jay!"

"OK then."

Xia Youjie came over and bit off a piece. The hard shell of the apple candy shattered a little, and a small part of the sugar residue landed on the corner of Xia Youjie's lips. Lott turned his head and saw it.

"Jie, you got it on your mouth too. If your mother saw it, she would laugh and let's eat candy again."

As Luo Te said, he wiped off the sugar residue at the corner of Xia Youjie's mouth with his hand, and took another bite of the apple candy himself.

Lott looked at the bright red candy apple in his palm, and suddenly he seemed to remember something, he smiled, his brows and eyes curved.

"Jay."

Luo Te came closer, he lay on Xia Youjie's shoulder, bit his earlobe, and spoke seriously.
