my lover is not human

At dusk in summer, the afterglow of the setting sun filled the whole city, and the streets were bustling with people. Among the crowd walking on the sidewalk, there was a slender figure with lowered eyes, not looking at the road, holding a snow-colored Cats are particularly eye-catching.

Passing through the intersection, Lin Shu walked towards the familiar route in his memory.

Under the guidance of the little white cat.

He can't see it!

That year, when I was traveling after the college entrance examination, I accidentally got into a car accident, bumped my head, damaged my optic nerve, and became blind.

His parents died early, and misfortunes never come singly. After the car accident, he missed college, spent all his savings on medical treatment for his eyes, and had a younger sister to take care of.

Now, his younger sister is an adult, and he has also found a stable job. He has no worries about food and clothing, is used to the darkness, and his daily life is not so difficult.

Turning right into a dark alley, the sound of footsteps and discussions around him suddenly became much quieter. Holding the copper ring in his hand, he walked forward dozens of steps, and the noose connected to the cat's neck was no longer tight. Stepping down, he touched the familiar doorknob, slightly curled his lips, and pushed the door open to enter.

This is the place where he works, called Po Xiang Jian, which seems to be a bar.

The cool breath hit his face, making his body eroded by the heat tremble comfortably. After entering the door, he walked [-] steps straight ahead to the right, which was the reception desk. His palm touched the cold marble surface. He groped to find a hook, and put the copper Ring up.

The hook is specially hung for him to tie the cat. The boss here is very nice.

He lowered his body and stroked the furry head of the kitten. It was soft and smooth to the touch, and he couldn't help rubbing it a few more times.

"What do you two need?"

The official greeting from the little brother at the front desk remains the same, he is obviously only one person.Because he couldn't see, his hearing was exceptionally good, and he was sure that there was no second person who came in at the same time as him.

Lin Shu raised his head, followed the direction of the sound and smiled, "Give me a glass of water."

"Please wait."

The water was prepared quickly, and it was pushed to his hand very considerately. It was warm enough to drink. Lin Shu picked it up, took a sip, and thanked him in a low voice.

His job here is simple, resident singing.

When I was young, my family was in good condition, I learned some musical instruments, I was born with a good voice, and I sang well. I never thought it was useful when I was in school. He sang on the street, and was later invited by the owner of the bar to work here.

Although the time hadn't come yet, he had to prepare first, so he turned and walked towards the performance stage.

If he could see it, he would surely find that the little white cat he had tied to the front desk had disappeared. Beside the loose noose, there was an extra figure with black hair and a silver crown, wearing a white cloud robe embroidered with black ink. With dark lines, a pair of blue eyes are as clear and bright as gemstones that see through the light.

It is incompatible with the modern setting here, and what is even more strange is that his feet have never touched the ground.

The boy at the front desk looked as usual, and he was not surprised by this. He stared at him for a while, saw that his face was pale, and poured him a glass of wine.

"……I have no money."

"Your master pays the bill."

The man's handsome face darkened: "He is not my master."

The boy at the front desk: "Your wife pays the bill."

His face became even weirder, and he took a drink from his glass.

"..."

Sitting down on the revolving high chair at the front desk, the man turned his head to look at the figure who had just stepped onto the stage and walked slowly, with extremely complicated lights shining in his eyes.

Lin Shu found a familiar place and sat down, touched the piano stand in front of him, and showed a comfortable smile.

After the eyes are blind, the sound is the only color in his life. Touching these instruments seems to have regained his own value.

There were not many guests in this bar, and it was very quiet. Although there was no applause at the end of his performance, he still felt very satisfied.

The seven o'clock reminder sounded on time, like the sound of a piano, like the song of a bird, spinning above his head, with a faint sound of flapping wings.

The clock set by the boss is really weird.

Shaking his head secretly, he raised his hand and pressed the first key with his fingertips. The melodious notes spread and gradually formed a beautiful rhythm. .

Lin Shu only wore a moon-white short-sleeved shirt today, which looked a little wrinkled due to repeated washing, and his blue jeans were also a little torn. His plain attire did not affect his charm on stage. He closed his eyes , enjoying the tune composed by himself, the corners of his lips partly raised, neither sad nor happy, the soft light hitting his face was even more exciting than the sound of the piano.

"How did you play? Meow." Seeing the man listening fascinatedly, the guy at the front desk suddenly spoke.

The man glanced at him sideways, then looked at the person who was still playing, and said solemnly: "It's not as good as his Xiao."

As if realizing something was wrong, he frowned, and said again: "My name is Xiao Min."

The guy at the front desk was noncommittal, "He doesn't play the xiao today."

So you are out of earshot.

As he said that, he turned around and put the person aside, and went to wipe the goblet that had already been polished in his hand.

Xiao Ming: "..."

The performance on the stage was still going on, and it wasn't just the sound of the piano that came into my ears, the man couldn't help humming a little song along with the tune, Xiao Ming stared at him for a moment, then looked away lightly.

"His eyes... why are they like this?"

"Car accident."

"..."

He didn't turn his head back, Xiao Ming knew that he deliberately refused to tell, so he didn't ask again.

Lin Shu worked here for two hours a day, and he only stayed here for two hours. Sitting in front of the curved bar, he could see endless scenery in the lobby.

Entering through the solid wooden retro-style gate, the place closest to the reception is where Lin Shu is now. Under the performance stage, several round tables with flowers and trees are arranged neatly. There is a simple stairwell on one side of the corridor for guests to go to the accommodation floor. The setting could not be simpler, except for the door, there are no walls.

It looks like a bar, but it's actually an inn.

An inn connecting the three realms.

The gate leading to the human world is opposite to the long corridor. On both sides are black and white vortexes, respectively connecting the demon world and the god world. Apart from that, there is endless darkness, as if you will be swallowed if you look at it too much.

But it didn't affect Lin Shu, he didn't even notice the birds flying around above his head.

Immersed in his own music world, two hours passed quickly, and the weird alarm sounded above his head again. Lin Shu looked up, and the birdsong stopped instantly.

The red bird flapped its wings and flew away, accidentally shaking off a piece of its tail feathers, circling and floating down from mid-air, and landed on the stage at Lin Shu's feet.

After closing the piano cover, Lin Shu stood up slowly, moved inch by inch from the performance stage to the edge, and carefully stepped down the steps.

No one would help him, not in the first place.

Xiao Min stared intently at his feet, with his hands clasped at his sides, and he unconsciously let out a sigh of relief when he walked down the steps smoothly.

"Xiao Miao, go back."

The down-to-earth address instantly attracted the inquiring attention of the younger brother at the front desk.

Xiao Ming got up from the high chair without changing his face, and under the contemptuous gaze of the boy at the front desk, he instantly turned into a white cat and appeared in the noose under the hook.

Lin Shu took off the brass ring and put it on his hand: "I'll come back tomorrow."

The guy at the front desk smiled and said, "The boss isn't here these two days, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come, I won't complain to you."

"Thanks, bye."

Smiling and nodding, Lin Shu was dragged out of the gate by Xiaomiao.

Lin Shu's home is in the most inconspicuous apartment building in Xingfu Community, and he lives on the fifth floor.

From the gate of the community to the downstairs, he walked for seven or eight years. Even if he couldn't see him, he would not get lost, let alone a small thing to guide the way.

This cat was picked up in the corridor by him three months ago.

When he stepped into the corridor, the small group suddenly rushed forward, circling around his feet, calling out one after another, as if he had suffered a great grievance, which softened his heart.

But he can't and can't afford it.

He couldn't even feed himself.

I asked the neighbors to help find the owner of the cat or someone who wanted to raise a cat, but the neighbors promised, but they didn't care much about the cat of unknown origin, so until now, no one has taken over the cat.

After three months of getting along, the idea of ​​sending the cat away is not as strong as it was at first, and even just thinking of sending the cat away, he began to feel reluctant.

The cat is very smart. I just took him from home to the bar, and he wrote down the way and started to lead him.

The boss also said that this is a spiritual cat.

Climbing up to the fifth floor with ease, Lin Shu reached the familiar door frame. Lin Shu squatted down, untied the noose around the kitten's neck, smoothed the hair on his neck, stood up, and took out the key to open the door. , As soon as a crack was pushed open, the kitten got in impatiently.

"Xiao Miao, come here." Hearing the sound of light footsteps running in, Lin Shu quickly called the cat to stop, bent down and took a towel from the shoe rack, and wiped the soles of the cat's feet before letting him in. , I also took my slippers, and after changing, I walked in from the entrance.

He changed into a pair of sandals and slippers, and instead of going to the living room, he went straight to the bathroom.

The kitten turned its head from under the sofa, trotted up and followed it, looked up to see him take off his clothes one by one, revealing his thin and slender body, and was about to sneak in after him, facing a cold translucent glass door, accurately greeted him on the bridge of his nose.

Xiao Ming: "..."

What door do you need to close when you live alone in the shower?

Rubbing his sore nose, he raised the cat's paw, scratched on the door frame in dissatisfaction for a while, turned around and went into the bedroom, jumped onto the bed, and nestled on the soft pillow.
