On a sunny day, Bai Ying printed out the photos she saved before and made them into a photo album.
Xia Lan lay on the bed, watching Bai Ying organize the photos one by one in chronological order and stuff them into the album.
Suddenly, she found a photo she had never seen before, which was Bai Ying when she was a child.
The person in this photo is small, about five or six years old, with a V-shape on his cheek with his right hand, and a shy smile.
Her face at that time was rounder than now, and her eyes were also round, like small balls.The hair is shorter than it is now, with two small knots tied on both sides of the top of the head, and the headband is decorated with strawberries.
It looks cute and well-behaved, the same as now.
Bai Ying saw that she was in a daze looking at her childhood photos, and said, "What's wrong?"
Xia Lan said, "Nothing."
Just remembered a past event.
When Xia Lan was eight years old, because her parents were well-known explorers, they were not at home all year round, so they often gave her to other relatives and friends to take care of her in turn.
During the summer vacation that year, a distant relative of my mother volunteered to take her in, and her parents handed her over to that distant relative without much thought.
But in fact, that distant relative is the leader of a cult. She volunteered to take in Xia Lan because she liked her S-level influencer aptitude and wanted to train her into a cult saint and use her power to control the cult members.
Xia Lan didn't know where she had entered until she was picked up by that person. At that time, she didn't know much about the influencer's ability, and she didn't know how to use her own ability, not to mention that the other party was also a high-level influencer. , so it can only be manipulated by the other party.
Every day, that person would let Xia Lan wear teaching uniforms, which were similar to robes, with red and white stripes, and then let her sit in the first row of the congregation and listen to her speeches, which was similar to brainwashing.
The church founded by that person is mostly adults, especially women, but there are also some children. Most of these children were brought to this church by their mothers.
One day, that person managed to lure a group of people into teaching again. Among them was a little girl who looked like five or six years old, but she didn't seem to join the teaching with her mother, because she looked so panic-stricken. She looked like she was about to cry.
Everyone else was listening to the teachings of the leader devoutly. Only she seemed to have been lured to a strange place, looking back frequently, but she was too timid to talk to others.
So much so that when everyone adjourned, everyone else left, and she was the only one who didn't know where to go, so she dared to hide behind the door timidly.
Because Xia Lan was adopted by that person, she stayed at the end.She was sitting on the futon, reciting the homework that the man assigned her today.It's nothing more than the man's custom-made teachings, a lot of prohibitions, what is not allowed to talk to strangers, not to go to strange places, not to go out alone and so on.
When Xia Lan was reciting the teachings, she felt that someone was peeping at her from behind the door. She knew it was the little girl, but she ignored her.Because it is written in the doctrine: Do not talk to strangers.
After an unknown amount of time, footsteps sounded behind her, softly, hesitantly, with a sense of temptation.The little girl walked up to her carefully, and she whispered, "Sister, do you know where the toilet is? I...I can't hold it anymore."
The little girl had tears in her eyes, as if she was about to cry.She has a round face, with two small knots on the top of her head, she looks shy and shy.
In the end, Xia Lan took her to the bathroom, because the teaching did not say that when a stranger asks for help, one cannot help her.
After the little girl went to the toilet, she probably felt embarrassed, and smiled shyly at her, then she took out some candies from her pocket, and whispered: "Sister, eat candies."
Xia Lan shook her head and said, "No, I don't like candy, you can eat it yourself."
The little girl blinked, thinking that candy is so delicious, why would anyone not like candy?
She nodded speculatively, peeled off a candy wrapper, stuffed the toffee inside into her mouth, and stuffed the remaining few candies back into her pocket.
Xia Lan felt that she had nothing to do with her now, and when she was about to leave, she found that the little girl followed her step by step.
Xia Lan glanced back from the corner of her eye, and she asked as she walked, "Where are your parents?"
The little girl lowered her head and said in a low voice: "My mother and I got separated, I don't know where she is..."
Although Xia Lan is only eight years old at the moment, she is more precocious than ordinary children. She guessed that the little girl must have accidentally encountered that person who was preaching when she was looking for her mother, and then she was brought here in a daze , and she looked like a submissive, she should have been influenced by that person at the time.
The little girl was a little scared of this strange place, she trotted two steps, held Xia Lan's hand, and said, "Sister, where are we going?"
Xia Lan felt that the hand being held was warm. She originally wanted to bring the little girl to that person and let her handle it by herself, but now she changed her mind. She said, "Go to my room."
She took the little girl to her room, and wanted to find some toys for her to play with, but the room that the man prepared for her had no toys at all except some evil/religion books were the teachings of the evil/religion.
However, when Xia Lan came here, she brought a hair clip with some diamonds inlaid on it, which was very expensive, but she didn't wear it very much, so she gave this hair clip to the little girl and said, "You can play by yourself. "
Girls at this age like shiny things the most. Holding this hairpin in both hands, she said with bright eyes, "It's so beautiful."
She seems to have completely trusted Xia Lan now, and completely forgot about her being lost. She tugged on Xia Lan's clothes and asked her for advice: "Can I wear it?"
Xia Lan said, "Okay, I'll give it to you."
The little girl laughed twice, she clipped the hair clips on her own hair, and some hair was messed up by her, she touched the top of her head and said, "Sister, do you look good?"
Xia Lan glanced at her head twice, feeling a bit ugly in her heart, but she said, "It's pretty."
The little girl smiled contentedly.She leaned against Xia Lan's body, touched her loose blond hair, and said, "Sister, your hair looks beautiful."
Then he blinked and stared at her face for a while, and suddenly blushed a little, this sister's face was also pretty.
They didn't play in the room for long, because Xia Lan was randomly checked by that person every day, so she sat on the carpet and recited the teachings. When she recited, the little girl sat next to her body, Be obedient and don't make trouble.
Maybe the voice of her reciting was too lullaby, and the little girl fell asleep leaning on her shoulder not long after.
After a while, when the man was about to check her homework, Xia Lan pushed the little girl awake.The little girl rubbed her eyes, woke up sleepily, and muttered, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Xia Lan stood up, she opened the closet in the room, and said to the little girl, "Shh, don't talk, you hide here first."
Although the little girl didn't know why, she did so anyway. She squatted in the bottom compartment of the closet. Seeing that she was hiding, Xia Lan said in a low voice, "Hide here obediently, don't make a sound."
The little girl covered her mouth and nodded, expressing that she would be obedient.
After Xia Lan closed the closet, as expected, someone knocked on the door soon, but before Xia Lan opened the door, the door opened from the outside.
The man appeared.
Perhaps Xia Lan deliberately closed this memory, that person will always be a blurred face in Xia Lan's memory, and he doesn't even remember his name.All I could vaguely think of were saggy skin, slightly dry lips and slightly curly hair.
Sure enough, the man started to randomly check Xia Lan's homework, and Xia Lan began to recite the teachings that need to be memorized today.She had a good memory and didn't make a single word wrong. The man was obviously satisfied and left quickly without finding that there was another person hiding in the closet.
After the man left, Xia Lan released the little girl from the closet.
At night, the two slept together on Xia Lan's bed, the little girl clinging to Xia Lan's body, hugging her waist.
After a while, the breathing in her ears gradually became steady. Xia Lan thought the little girl was asleep. She turned her head and found tears in the corners of the little girl's eyes. She murmured softly: "I want mom..."
Xia Lan sat up, she looked at her quietly for a while, then suddenly pushed her awake and said, "Let's go find your mother."
The house is huge, like a castle.Even though it was late at night and the man had already fallen asleep, there were still several congregants standing watch, and the guards were very strict.
However, Xia Lan knew that there was a secret dog hole in this house that could lead to the outside, but there was a church member guarding the place that must be passed to the dog hole.
But now Xia Lan has learned how to use the influencer's power. Although there is only a little bit, it is enough.
She took the little girl's hand, came to the congregation, and smiled sweetly at her. She looked into the eyes of the congregation, opened her lips lightly, and said, "Auntie, you are sleepy now and want to sleep very much." right?"
The congregation's eyes were a little blurred, and she said vaguely: "Yes, I am very sleepy now, and I want to sleep." So she walked towards her room like sleepwalking.
The two took the opportunity to sneak in front of the dog hole, Xia Lan pushed the little girl out of the dog hole, and then climbed out by herself.
Holding the little girl's hand, she looked at the dark street and said, "Do you remember where your home is?"
The little girl thought for a while, and said angrily, "I don't remember."
Xia Lan said, "Then do you remember what's near your house?"
The little girl thought about it again, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said, "I remember that there is a building opposite my house, and that building will turn on a red light every night."
According to this feature, the two searched all the way, and finally came to the little girl's house after searching for most of the night.The little girl's parents were obviously also searching for her. The lights shone on the two of them. A young woman cried when she saw the little girl, and exclaimed, "Yingying."
She ran up to the little girl, knelt on the ground and hugged her tightly in her arms, rebuked while thanking that she finally found her, "Where did you go..."
When the little girl turned her head to look at Xia Lan, she found that she had already run away, and her small figure was hidden in the darkness.
Of course, not long after, the mother and daughter who were fooled by that man were exposed because they set fire to each other, Xia Lan was also rescued, and her parents blamed themselves very much.
Xia Lan herself didn't feel much. After all, that person didn't really hurt her, and even treated her very well. However, she rarely recalled her childhood, so she sealed this past in the depths of her memory.
But now that I see this picture, I think about it again.
It turns out that the fate between them started earlier than they thought.
Bai Ying watched her finger lightly brush her face in that photo, there was a trace of nostalgia in her eyes, and she said softly: "You were very cute when you were young."
Bai Ying's lips bulged, dissatisfied: "Am I not cute now?"
Xia Lan pressed her down, pinched her face, and said, "It's cute too."
……
Not long after, when Bai Ying was sorting out her old things, she found the hairpin from an iron box. She said to Xia Lan in surprise, "I thought I lost it, so it's here."
She explained to Xia Lan: "This was given to me by a young lady when I was a child." She doesn't remember much about when she was a child, she only vaguely had a young lady who gave her this hairpin.
She glanced at Xia Lan's blond hair, and said, "It's a blond lady like Senior Sister."
The barrette was still new, and the diamonds on it glistened.
Bai Ying put the hair clip on her hair and asked Xia Lan, "Does it look good?"
Xia Lan laughed and commented: "Stupid."
