In the summer when she was 19 years old, Lin Sanqian had her first blue lipstick as an adult.

The mirror image in the dream was right, he really believed in "himself", and really wanted to meet "himself".

After buying the lipstick, Lin Sanqian remembered that she was always wearing unsuitable women's clothing, and suddenly had the idea of ​​dressing up "the other party", so she walked towards the women's clothing counter again.

During college, he received a scholarship every year because of his excellent grades. In addition, half of his spare time is spent on part-time jobs, and he doesn’t usually have much to spend money on. At the age of 19, he already has a considerable savings.

The salesperson gave a warm reception: "Sir, do you want to buy a gift for your female friend? Do you want me to recommend it for you?"

Lin Sanqian didn't have much experience in dealing with women, so she was not sure about dressing up, so she nodded: "Is it possible? I'm in trouble."

The salesman looked at this pretty little boy with a cute embarrassed look: "No trouble, please tell me the general information of the other party, such as height, body shape, skin color, hair color, usual dressing style, etc."

Lin Sanqian thought for a while: "He... probably looks like me."

The salesman was slightly stunned, and looked up at Lin Sanqian's 1.8-meter stature: "You mean... is that woman about as tall as you?"

Lin Sanqian nodded: "Height, body shape, skin color and hair color are similar to mine. He is my...twin sister...I can't tell you about his usual dressing style."

He made up a reason casually, thought for a while and added, "I often wear blue lipstick."

While envious of the other party's gentle brother, the salesperson sighed sincerely: "Then your sister must be very beautiful."

Lin Sanqian was taken aback for a moment: "Well, it's very beautiful."

"Nowadays young girls like playful styles. Your sister's skin is very suitable for this blue skirt. It rains a lot in this season and the temperature difference is big, so it is very suitable to match with a denim jacket..." The salesperson spared no effort to recommend, "Tall Girls can choose these handmade flat leather shoes, which are comfortable and look good..."

Finally, under the recommendation of the salesman, Lin Sanqian bought a skirt, denim jacket, leather shoes, and a denim choker of the same color.

He came out of the department store with big bags and bought a shoulder-length black wig, a bottle of perfume, a pack of women's cigarettes and a lighter when he passed the night market on the underground street.

After returning to the residence, Lin Sanqian drew the curtains and locked the door.

The fluorescent light made the person's complexion a little pale, Lin Sanqian looked up at the mirror slightly, and applied the blue lipstick jerky. The protruding Adam's apple formed a stark contrast with the blue lips.

Contradictory, sexy and charming.

Then he changed into a wig, skirt, and jacket one by one, and stepped on the ground in stockings. The person in the mirror seemed to be a tall girl.

Lin Sanqian didn't have a talent for makeup, but his face didn't need to be deliberately decorated, it would present a gender-ambiguous beauty.

He took out a slender lady's cigarette, but didn't put it in his mouth. He just lit it and held it in his hand to burn quietly.

He thought of his mother who often waited to comb her hair before going out before being sent to the orphanage, and his mother also had such slender cigarettes.

At that time, my mother was afraid that he would be bored by himself, so she always gave him a lollipop to pass the time. In June, the hydrangeas in the yard bloomed very well. He sat by the window and sucked the sweet candy. Look at the hydrangeas outside the window, and look at the mother with lipstick in the vanity mirror for a while.

"She would smile at me in the mirror when she caught me getting impatient."

Lin Sanqian described it to the mirror, only to realize that she was also laughing in the mirror.

The cigarette in my hand was almost burned out before I knew it.

Lin Sanqian leaned forward slightly, his breath quickly covered a layer of white mist between him and the mirror image.

Now the "self" in women's clothing in the mirror looks much better than when she was bullied by three gangsters.

I don't know if the "other party" will be satisfied with such a dress, and whether he will keep his promise and come out to meet him again.

Lin Sanqian raised his head slightly in this posture, and he stared at the mirror image very closely, as if the other party had an independent soul.

"Can I call you 'Blue'? "

Lin Sanqian knew that the mirror would not answer him, but he waited patiently for a long time, finally smiled a little disappointed, and extinguished the cigarette in his hand at the end of the mirror's eyes.

The position where the soot remains, at first glance, looks like a mole of tears.

Three days passed, and Lin Sanqian didn't wait for his "Lan" to walk out of the mirror, and didn't even dream about the "other party".

It seems to be cheated again.

But Lin Sanqian wasn't angry, just a little habitually lost, followed by a sense of loss.

Like a child hiding in a closet playing a secret role-playing game, he began to conceive various details about "Blue".

For example, "Lan" is very different from his quiet and boring self. He has a strong personality, likes new and dangerous things, and is a bit narcissistic and even conceited. He plays pranks on those he cares about, and has a dangerous and attractive aura about him.

For example, "Blue" should like alcohol and sweets, and hate unpleasant taste experiences, such as bitter and sour foods; like foods with warm or strange colors, and dislike green and white foods; like cold things, not hot Food, so basically bid farewell to the hot pot cuisine...

For example, "Lan" has a tendency to be extremely stubborn. He will take revenge and is very good at fighting. He can quietly kill all those who try to bully him. He is not afraid of anything, but he seems a little afraid of the dark...

According to his own understanding and imagination, Lin Sanqian endowed "Lan" with personality, preferences and soul, just like carefully crafting a work of art that belongs only to him.

On the last day of the trip to Xiacheng, the "Mirror" bar on Cotton Road in Beicheng District held a June beer music party. Lin Sanqian got the bar's leaflet. He thought that if "Blue" really existed, he might want to go and see it.

That was the only time Lin Sanqian appeared in public in women's clothing.

Lin Sanqian knew that such a state was a bit dangerous, but he had already made plans. After this trip to Xiacheng, he would burn all the women's clothes and everything about Lan, so as to get his life back on track, so this night was equivalent to The last carnival before the end.

The "Mirror" bar invited several bands that night, and music fans from nearby towns also came to this music party, and the bar was packed with people.

Lin Sanqian ordered wine very low-key, and found a relatively dark corner to stay. Even so, Lin Sanqian in women's clothing quickly became the focus of everyone's attention. Lin Sanqian touched the choker worn around his neck, pretending to be dumb and ignoring all the invitations, and the little boys who tried to strike up a conversation all hit a wall.

The biggest feature of "Mirror" is the grotesque arrangement like a mirror maze. The location Lin Sanqian chose was facing the bar aisle, and the surrounding mirrors reflected the bustling figures and "Blue". Lin Sanqian listened to the band's performance while Drinking in front of the "blue" in the mirror in all directions until the middle of the night, the performance ended and the people who came to the party left one after another. Lin Sanqian was about to check out and leave when the bartender lady pushed a glass of blue cocktail in front of him .

Lin Sanqian was confused, unable to make a sound, he typed a line on the phone——

"Did I make a mistake, I didn't order this glass of wine"

"Can I buy you a glass of wine?" The young lady seemed a little embarrassed, and whispered while staring into Lin Sanqian's eyes.

Just as Lin Sanqian was about to say no, the young lady seemed to have expected it and hurriedly said: "Don't rush to reject me, I'm a new bartender at "Mirror", and I want to find someone to try this blue shark, so... I want to Please help me with this. "

Lin Sanqian's typing hands stopped, he deleted the edited words before, and simply typed four words again: "Okay, thank you"

The young lady smiled: "Please use it slowly."

Lin Sanqian took a sip under her expectant eyes: "It tastes very good."

"Thank you for the compliment," the young lady blushed a little with joy, "That...it's a little presumptuous...because you are so beautiful...I want to take a photo of you..."

The young lady pointed to the Polaroid she had placed under the bar, "I'm just asking, I want to fight for it, I'm sorry if it makes you uncomfortable, you can refuse..."

Lin Sanqian thought for a while, and edited a line of words on the phone: "It's possible, but I can only take one photo, and the photo belongs to me, okay?"

The young lady observed all night and knew that this beautiful "girl" would not accept flirting with her. She didn't have any hope at first, but unexpectedly the other party let go, she was stunned for a moment and nodded vigorously: "Okay, okay! No problem at all!"

The young lady raised the Polaroid, and Lin Sanqian kept his original posture and turned his face slightly. Half of his face was illuminated by the soft light of the bar, and the other side was sunk in the shadows. Behind him were countless overlapping mirror images.

Therefore, in just a few days from the birth to the end of "Blue", only this one photo was left.

After Lin Sanqian took the photo and left the bar, he changed his clothes and wiped off his lipstick in the mixed-use public toilet a few blocks away, and came out of the public toilet after recovering his clean boy appearance.

He walked all the way to the open space under the bridge, threw skirts, denim jackets, leather shoes, chokers, and wigs into a pile on the ground, lit them, and the fire quickly engulfed these objects.

At that time, it was already 03:30 in the morning, and the whole Xiacheng was silent. Occasionally, the sound of rolling wheels could be heard from the bridge above the head, like thunder rolling against the sky on a stormy night.

The street lamps along the river were turned off early, and the mist rising from the river overflowed the banks. The blooming hydrangeas by the river were shrouded in mist, like countless flowing blue luminous bodies connected together, illuminating the moonless night.

Lin Sanqian buried the ashes emitting residual heat with sand and was about to turn around and leave when he heard a creepy meow.

The black cat, which was sleeping among the hydrangea bushes, suddenly stood up, and stared behind Lin Sanqian's ears with wide eyes. The dark green eyes were full of vigilance. Lin Sanqian was going to appease it, but only took a step forward. , the black cat's fur exploded as if under a huge threat, Lin Sanqian stopped moving immediately, the black cat confronted him for a moment, its limbs bent and retreated slightly, Lin Sanqian realized something, and he also took a step back, the black cat just Panting and terrified, he rushed into the flowers again and disappeared.

Lin Sanqian frowned. Although he has never been welcomed by cats, the little black cat's blatant fear and disgust towards him tonight was really hurtful. Lin Sanqian turned depressedly in the direction where the wild cat disappeared. Crooked head.

There was no one on the street. Before returning to the orphanage, Lin Sanqian took the only Polaroid photo of "Lan" in his hand, looked at it under the streetlight for a long time, and finally said goodbye to the other party in his heart: "Lan" ,Bye now."

He lit the photo and watched "Blue" curl up, deform, and turn into ashes in the flames. Lin Sanqian threw the blue lipstick, cigarettes, and perfume into the roadside trash can.

The absurd summer of 19 years old is over, and all traces of "Blue" are burned.

Lin Sanqian's life returned to stagnant calm, until seven years later, objects that could prove the existence of "Lan" appeared in front of him one by one.

When the train stopped at Xiacheng platform, Lin Sanqian put the photo with "blue" in his pocket, pushed his luggage out of the station, and hailed a taxi.

"Where is sir going?"

"Mirror Bar on Cotton Road, Beicheng District, thank you. "

The author has something to say: Lan: Why is it set that I don’t like hot pot

Sanqian: What kind of hot pot do you eat with a mirror? It’s so expensive

Blue: QAQ
