Zhou Wei had another night of dreams. In the dream, her professor pointed at her nose and scolded her for not seeking to make progress, but to eat and wait for death.This dream was so real that when she woke up, she lay in bed for a long time and couldn't recover.When she was finally able to move her legs and arms, she first took a look at the Nokia on the bedside - it was already nine o'clock.

At this time, there was a knock on her door, and then Ms. Yanzhi's bluffing voice came: "Xiao Zhou, are you up yet?"

"Oh!" Zhou Wei opened his mouth in response.

"Get up and have something to eat, the car will pick you up at ten o'clock." After she finished speaking, she walked away, and the sound of her footsteps going away sounded extraordinarily cheerful.

Zhou Wei finally moved her body, she stretched first, then turned over - fell to the bottom of the bed with a "plop".

There was a rug on the floor next to the bed, and she didn't hurt from the fall.It was just the cold winter and the backache when she woke up early in the morning, so she simply lay down on the ground and rested for a while.

Lying on the ground motionless was too boring, she wanted to have some fun for herself, so she turned her head to look under the bed.It was empty under the bed, and when I took a breath, I could still see the dust flying up.The big bed is like a fuzzy dividing line, enclosing the space under the bed into a secret compartment, separating it from the space outside the bed, so that the well water does not interfere with the river water.

Could something suddenly appear there?A dog, a cat, or a black human face?Such conjectures aroused Zhou Wei's interest, she grabbed the camera from the bedside table and took a picture of it.

The space in the lens is still empty, the only thing there is the hanging quilt and the choking dust.

So Zhou Wei lost interest again, got up from the ground, and began to put on clothes slowly.

On the way to Town Y, Zhou Wei sat in the co-pilot, checking the photos in the camera with the noisy voices of the two people in the back seat—to be exact, Ms. Yanzhi said ten sentences, and Ms. Jiayi replied one sentence.Their argument was naive and boring, but the relaxed and happy mood of the parties was revealed from the inside out, which made the listeners smile.

Zhou Wei flipped through the photos one by one, and when he found one of them, his fingers stopped.

Young brunette girl in glasses wearing aqua blue cotton linen shirt and black trousers with work name tag around her neck holding a notebook and smiling coyly.The middle-aged woman in red standing next to her is in her 40s and slightly shorter than the young girl.Her expression was very serious, her lips were tightly pursed, and her hands folded in front of her body showed the traces of years of wind and rain.

This is Lu Lin and her teacher.This photo was taken by Zhou Wei. At that time, she was still in the photography studio, following a senior to shoot a popular artist.She still clearly remembers that the artist with exquisite make-up was very impatient and called the staff back and forth in a rough voice - when she returned to the studio later, the colleagues who entered the studio at the same time were very surprised to hear her description ——She said that the artist has always looked like a gentle and caring prince on the screen.

Look, this is a human being, full of duplicity.

After work, she took the camera and wandered into the street. She was very unhappy with the artist's shooting cooperation-so she planned to take some landscapes to soothe her restless heart.

Then she was treated as a black photography of a tourist attraction.

After running 500 meters with the camera, she stopped, remembering the funny experience just now, laughing up and down in the square.The people around looked at her in surprise, avoiding her like a maniac.

At this time, she met Lu Lin.

Lu Lin said that she came to a meeting with her teacher-she is a reporter and has attended countless meetings.Lu Lin also said that it was her first time here and asked her to help take pictures of them.

Fortunately, I met you, what a coincidence.Lu Lin said.

Yeah, what a coincidence.Zhou Wei agreed and pressed the shutter.

Later, Lu Lin said that she had found her direction marker. After saying this, she followed her teacher to the war-torn country S.

Lu's parents were furious and threatened to sever the parent-child relationship with her if she didn't go home.As soon as Lu Lin's mobile phone was turned off and the number was changed, there was no more trouble in the world.

There is nothing wrong with the Lu family's parents. All they want is the safety of their only daughter, but the young Zhang Yang's heart is full of distance.

Zhou Wei couldn't understand, but it wasn't because he couldn't understand Lu Lin, but because he couldn't understand Lu Lin's teacher.No matter how arrogant Lu Lin is, there is a reason why she is young. Her teacher is in her 40s, about the same age as her parents.Most of the women and men who have reached this age have been smoothed by life, and they only wait for retirement wholeheartedly.What is she trying to figure out?

Zhou Wei only has photography in her life, and she is only interested in photography.In order to take satisfactory photos, she can jump off a cliff with a parachute on her back, or dive into the deep sea with an oxygen cylinder on her back.But she is not sure that when she reaches that age, she will still have such enthusiasm and courage.

She looked at the photo in her hand, Lu Lin and her teacher's eyes were burning, like a dazzling light, even after such a long time, it still hurt her head.

"Is this your friend?" Yanzhi stopped chatting with her girlfriend at some point, leaned her head in front of her from the back seat, and asked while looking at the photo on the screen.

Zhou Wei's shoulders trembled imperceptibly.Seeing her silence, Yanzhi hastily apologized: "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked for your permission..."

"It's okay," Zhou Wei exhaled, "It's okay."

"This is my best friend and her teacher."

"They look very determined and energetic." Yanzhi said.

Her female companion grabbed her by the back of the collar and pushed her back to the seat, and said angrily, "You're talking nonsense again."

It's not nonsense, what she said couldn't be more reasonable.

Thinking so, Zhou Wei cast her eyes out of the car window. City F is located on a plain, and outside the window is a large area of ​​corn and sorghum fields. It is just that it is dormant because of the winter cold, and it is ambitiously waiting for the next spring.

They got off the car in front of a school, which looked like a weather-beaten old school, with an iron sign reading "Town Y Experimental Middle School" hanging in front of the door.It was the weekend, and there was no one on campus, only the cold wind was blowing.

"Ah, alma mater, alma mater!" Yanzhi ran towards the school gate, her back full of vigor like a middle school student.

"Luo Jiayi! Look, Rhubarb!" She pointed to the little yellow dog who was eating at the door of the guard room.

Her female companion shook her head helplessly: "It's been 20 years, how could it be rhubarb."

"That's Da Huang's daughter!" Yan Zhi waved at the little yellow dog, "Hey, come here!"

The little yellow dog ran towards them wagging its tail.

"A male dog." Yanzhi's voice was full of disappointment.

Ms. Jiayi finally couldn't help laughing.
