Night Labyrinth

Chapter 37 Countdown

After that day, as I promised myself, I got up early and went to bed early, adjusted the jet lag, helped my mother with housework every day, kept talking with Shuling, and occasionally went out to meet my former classmates.

Time suddenly sped up, and it was already the Spring Festival at the end of January in a blink of an eye.

On the evening of the [-]th, in addition to some text messages from some classmates, I also received a call from Shuling.

"Happy Chinese New Year!" She shouted to me from the other side, with sporadic firecrackers in the background.

"Happy Chinese New Year to you too! Another year older, and you're going to the third!" I also shouted to her.

"Get out, sister, I am forever!" The sound of firecrackers on the opposite side was a little quieter.

"Okay, ok, lord Shu Ling, the eternal youthful and beautiful girl." I responded.

"That's about the same." Shuling then asked me, "Hey, what are your plans for graduation?"

"Why is it so unsightly all of a sudden, I decided to just go with the flow." I looked up at the Spring Festival Gala on TV, and the countdown to the new year was about to begin.

"Oh, then you won't forget me?" Shuling asked.

"How is it possible? Did you forget that I said I would haunt you forever?" I replied.

"Then I'm relieved." Shu Ling seemed to be smiling, and then she called my name, "Lu Fei!"

The countdown on the TV started.

"five!"

"Four!"

"Huh? Tell me something! It's time to set off firecrackers!" I yelled at her.

"three!"

"two!"

"Lufei, I..."

"one!"

"Crackling, crackling..."

For a moment, the sound of firecrackers outside was like an explosion. I felt that my eardrums were about to be shattered. I couldn't hear anything except the deafening bombing.

There were also firecrackers on the other end of the phone.

I ran into the bedroom with my mobile phone in my hand, covered my head under the quilt, and yelled at the opposite side, "What did you say?"

There was no response, of course, or maybe there was a response I couldn't hear.

So I yelled again, "I told you to speak sooner rather than later, what should I do if I can't hear you now!"

There was still no response from the other side.

I simply stopped shouting.

Shuling didn't hang up the phone, and neither did I.

After about 2 minutes in this way, the bombing sound finally became quieter.

I yelled again "What the hell did you just say!"

"I didn't say anything! I was so noisy with the firecrackers that I forgot what to say!" Shuling also shouted.

"It's over, I'm starting to wonder!"

"Don't be curious, since you've forgotten it, it's definitely not a big deal!"

"Well, that's true! Then, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

After hanging up the phone, I looked out the window, and there was smoke everywhere, and there was a vague mess.

"New year, new atmosphere." I smiled and said to myself.

Then time flew by like an arrow.

From the first day to the fifteenth day of the junior high school, it was just a nap, and even the weather began to warm up quietly.

The only thing worth mentioning during this period is that I got lucky money!

I took it again before graduating from university, but after that, I was officially promoted to an aunt and started sending money to others.

At the end of the first month, I started the finishing work of the thesis for the second time.

Because I paused for a long time before, it took a little time to pick it up again.

I weighed my words carefully, revising and revising them carefully, as if to pass the time.

In fact, the time has passed quickly without me killing it.

At the end of last year, I was already 22 years old.

In another year, they will enter the army of the legendary "late marriage".

It's scary to think about.

In April, I finally returned to the school where I had been away for nearly half a year.

The campus is still the same, with the new back door repaired last summer, the cafeteria with a collective price increase of 5 cents, and the re-greened trees...

There is also a new teaching building that has been built for more than a year and has not been put into use. I don't think I can wait for it to open to the public.

There were already two people in the dormitory when I went back.

Shuling returned to school a week later than me because of her internship.

It didn't take long for us to enter the final process of college graduation:

Thesis, defense, taking graduation photos, attending the graduation ceremony, selling things that cannot be taken away at a low price, the last carnival, pack up and get out.

Because of the careful words and sentences before, my thesis defense went very smoothly, and then I won the excellent award without any surprise.

When taking graduation photos, we put on the long-awaited fat bachelor uniforms and pink drape, and tossed academic caps amid the shouts of the cameraman, like black birds.

Then we tried our best to try various styles of creativity and difficult moves for our own commemorative photos. As a girl in the Chinese department, it is essential to have a little freshness in literature and art. Of course, two people do it. Three people, SM and four groups It is even more unacceptable to criticize this kind of drama that makes full use of its own resources.

Everyone looked at the photos they took and laughed and liked them, and I laughed and liked them too. We all tried our best to ignore the sadness of parting, even though it was so inescapable and always with us.

We have visited the streets countless times before, went to every place we have been to, and ate every favorite snack, as if we wanted to reshape all the memories of the past four years and lock them deeply in our minds.

It is a bit of a pity that the graduation ceremony was canceled. I don't know the specific reason, but I just got a notice that it will not be held.

"It's a pity. Before we entered school, there was no freshman ceremony, and now there is no graduation ceremony when we leave school." Shuling smiled and sighed.

"We really memorized this year, so it doesn't matter what we want." I said.

"It's not that I don't want anything." Shuling looked at me, her expression became serious, "It's worth it to have you with me for four years."

"Stop talking, it's time to cry." I wiped my eyes.

After that, we sat on the ground on both sides of the path of the college under the sun, setting up street stalls like hawkers, and selling all the things we couldn't take with us.Collect the money you earn and use it to buy cold drinks and chilled watermelons.

In fact, I didn’t earn a few dollars in total. Things that used to cost hundreds of dollars can only be sold for a few dollars or even given away for free.

The things I liked so much at first, the joy when I bought them are still fresh in my memory, some are old, some are brand new, but if I can’t take them with me, I can only give them up.

Then came the most important item, which was repeated countless times by the previous seniors and sisters, and it has become like a ceremony. The last one is the carnival night.

The author has something to say:

Carnival night is about to begin~
