Reservoir Dogs

They underestimated moving bricks, or overestimated Fu Jingsan—he wanted to go to the construction site, but based on his stature and age, the contractor might not want him.

Fu Jingsan first searched around Fallen Street, but couldn't find a part-time job; later, he passed by the wharf by accident, but managed to find a part-time job of loading and unloading goods, working from school in the afternoon to twelve o'clock in the evening.He didn't have to choose, let alone dared to choose. Every day after class, he went straight to the pier and started working without eating dinner. Often, when he was free after ten o'clock, he would buy a vegetarian meal with those middle-aged migrant workers. A meaty box lunch.

He didn't miss the weekend, so he simply found another part-time job in a beverage shop in the business district.

Fu Jingsan kept herself as busy as a spinning top, thinking that she would have no time to think about Huo Yunjiang's affairs.

But in reality, it was just the opposite. When he was doing mechanical work that didn't require thinking, Huo Yunjiang's face was haunting his mind.He could deliberately avoid all contact with Huo Yunjiang at school, but he couldn't avoid his uncontrolled thinking.

He always remembered that Huo Yunjiang said he liked him, with a firm tone and no hesitation.

Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, the May Day holiday that he once said he could accompany Huo Yunjiang crazy for a few days has passed; but Huo Yunjiang didn't look for him, and he didn't look behind him again.Fu Jingsan is sure that if he continues to be so busy, he will completely forget his inexplicable liking for Huo Yunjiang; and the other party should be bored, it's time to find new fun.

It's just that when he dragged his tired body home late at night, undressed in the small and cramped bathroom, and saw the tattoo that had grown behind him; he would suddenly feel uncomfortable, and something felt like a stick in his throat.

Just like what Huo Yunjiang said, tattoos can be washed off if you don't like them. This is no longer a mark that must accompany you for a lifetime.

But Fu Jingsan didn't think about going to the tattoo shop, and didn't even go to the tattoo shop to ask.

He didn't know why, and he didn't want to think about it.

When the winter clothes were shelved and the season for cool-loving teenagers to wear short sleeves, Huo Yunjiang suddenly didn't come to class.

When Fu Jingsan walked into the classroom in the morning, he hadn't fully recovered from his drowsiness, but he noticed his empty seat at a glance.Huo Yunjiang never came late, never left early, never asked for leave, and came earlier than him every day; and now that position is vacant, which is extremely rare.

He squeezed in from behind Luo Chen, and originally wanted to pretend nothing had happened, but within a few seconds he couldn't help but ask, "...Where's Huo Yunjiang?"

"Huh? I still want to ask you." Luo Chen said, "The bell will ring soon... Maybe he overslept today."

"..."

As a result, that day, Fu Jing didn't lie down to sleep for the first time in the morning.He would unconsciously glance at the back door every few minutes, always thinking that he would see Huo Yunjiang who had come late.He lowered his head against the cold desktop in class, took out his mobile phone pretending to be sleeping, opened the text message interface he had sent with Huo Yunjiang impulsively, and quickly typed: Why didn't you come to class?

But after typing this sentence, he stared at the flashing cursor for a long time.

That text message was neither sent nor deleted, and was saved by Fu Jingsan in the "draft box".

It wasn't until the first class in the afternoon that the class teacher walked into the classroom and greeted the class leader, "Huo Yunjiang is on sick leave."That sentence was not spoken very loudly, but it just happened to completely enter Fu Jingsan's ears.

——It turns out that Huo Yunjiang can also get sick.

Fu Jingsan's first reaction was this, and the nerves that had been tense for no reason relaxed just like that.

He was finally able to catch up on sleep by lying on the table, and he slept all afternoon until the end of the last class, and then cheered up and rushed to the pier to work as a coolie.

But what he didn't expect was that Huo Yunjiang didn't come to school for a whole week.

Some classmates began to discuss what kind of disease he had, and some speculated that he might have transferred another school quietly.Even Luo Chen came to ask him: "...you really don't know what happened to Huo Yunjiang?"

"How would I know..."

"You have a good relationship, don't you?"

"Which eye of yours sees that I have a good relationship with him?" Fu Jingsan said fiercely, "Whether he comes to class or not is none of my business?"

His sudden rage confused Luo Chen, so he could only sneer twice to smooth things over: "...I'm just talking casually, there's no other meaning..."

But after this inexplicable rage, Fu Jingsan called Huo Yunjiang on the way to the pier.In fact, he didn't think about anything, and he didn't know what to say after the call was connected - after getting to know Huo Yunjiang, many of his emotions came suddenly, without any warning.

But Huo Yunjiang saved him the effort of thinking about the opening statement: "The phone you dialed has been turned off..."

Fu Jing pressed down the phone three times, and cursed fiercely in the wild wind of the pier: "Fuck."

On the tenth day when Huo Yunjiang didn't attend class, Fu Jing pretended to be sick and skipped the afternoon class.

When he was standing in the convenience store near Huo Yunjiang's house, he was still in a daze, as if in the past hour, another person had made an advocacy for him and asked him to come here.Wearing a school uniform, he hesitated for a long time at the entrance of the convenience store, and finally turned around and went in to buy a can of coffee that Huo Yunjiang often bought.

In the past few days, he called Huo Yunjiang several times, but the phone of the other party kept shutting down, and the text messages he sent to ask about the situation were also ignored and there was no response.

The rumored "Huo Yunjiang transferred to another school" became more and more real, so real that Fu Jingsan couldn't bear it any longer, and just wanted to verify it quickly.

He was carrying coffee, drinking while walking, following the route he walked once in memory, and quickly found Huo Yunjiang's "luxury house".Iron fences surround the house, and the well-tended flowers are sprouting in the yard, and everything looks normal.

Fu Jingsan hesitated for a long time, and after several deep breaths, he stretched out his hand and rang the doorbell next to the iron gate.

"Ding-dong-ding-dong-"

"Hello, who are you looking for?" A middle-aged woman's voice came from the doorbell intercom.

He was stunned for a moment, not sure if it was Huo Yunjiang's mother or their servant: "I...I'm looking for Huo Yunjiang, I'm his classmate..."

"Yunjiang, your classmate is looking for you." The middle-aged woman said, "Go and pick your classmate in?"

Immediately afterwards, Huo Yunjiang's deep voice came from far to near: "It should be that there is something wrong in the school, I'll go out and ask."

Before Fu Jing could say anything more, the intercom hung up.Realizing that the woman was probably Huo Yunjiang's parent, he became even more embarrassed and even wanted to run away.But Huo Yunjiang moved very quickly, before he could change his pace, the door of the villa was already opened.

Huo Yunjiang's hair seemed to grow long after not seeing him for such a long time.He walked fast, and didn't give Fu Jingsan any time to escape from the scene. After half a minute, he opened the iron gate and stood in front of Fu Jingsan.

"... Huo Yunjiang, what about me..." Fu Jingsan was thinking about what to say, and avoided the other party's gaze unnaturally.

Who knew that Huo Yunjiang suddenly grabbed his wrist with astonishing strength: "Come with me."

His voice was cold, with some anger hidden in it.

Before Fu Jingsan had time to struggle, he was dragged to the gap between the two houses opposite.

"What are you doing here?" Huo Yunjiang raised his chin slightly, lowered his eyes because of the height difference, and asked arrogantly.

"... Let me see if you are dead." He said, "Didn't you ask for sick leave? I think you are very energetic?"

The two of them faced each other in a small space, so close that Huo Yunjiang could kiss him as long as he lowered his head.

"I asked you what you are here for?" Huo Yunjiang said, "Don't you want to draw a line with me? You are working hard, working as a coolie and a waiter, and you want to return the money you saved? What are you doing now? Show me good?"

"how do you know……"

"You don't care how I know."

Probably because these words were too impactful, when Huo Yunjiang reached out to pinch his chin, he forgot to dodge.The opponent's actions were extremely aggressive, and that fierce aura told Fu Jingsan that he was really angry.

"You just tell me what you are looking for me now." He suddenly lowered his voice and whispered.

"It's okay if I'm fucking sick?" Fu Jingsan subconsciously opened his hand, and he was so angry that he was short of breath, "I'm leaving, what do you like!"

——At that time, Fu Jing San had a vague feeling that behind Huo Yunjiang's anger, there was a huge haze shrouded in it.It's just that he couldn't stand the other party's slanderous words, every sentence seemed to mock him for being too devoted to Huo Yunjiang.

He turned his head to leave, but was caught by Huo Yunjiang in the next second.

"My parents are at home," Huo Yunjiang said, "I will come to see you in two days."

Fu Jing turned her head three times and looked at Huo Yunjiang's lonely face at that moment.How should I describe that expression? In his opinion, it was absolutely impossible to appear on Huo Yunjiang's face...but it really appeared, although it was only for a short moment.

He is different from others, he knows that Huo Yunjiang's seemingly glamorous family background is actually rotten, like the remnants of the feudal era.

Before this, Huo Yunjiang should have been driven here with his mother as a concubine and the son of a concubine; so now, the "parents" Huo Yunjiang mentioned has a profound meaning.Even if he didn't explain the matter more clearly, Fu Jingsan still understood the complexity.

He softened immediately.

He nodded, and used his impatience to cover up his extra thoughts: "...Oh, I'm leaving **Y_Q_Z_W_5_C_O_M**."

Huo Yunjiang didn't follow, he glanced there intentionally or unintentionally at the corner of the road, and saw him standing in the gap just now, his bangs covered his eyebrows and eyes.

Fu Jingsan thought that "after two days", or two or three days, Huo Yunjiang should go back to school - but what that person did always surprised him.

At two o'clock in the morning that night, Fu Jingsan had just fallen asleep with his tired body, when the phone vibrated crazily next to the pillow, directly waking him up.He touched the phone with his eyes closed, and it took a lot of effort to open his eyes; during this process, the phone kept vibrating, and new blank text messages kept pouring in one after another.

The other party seemed to have figured out that he should be woken up at this time, and before he could take the next step, the call came in again.

"Hello..." Fu Jingsan was so tired that he could hardly make a sound, his voice was so hoarse that it was scary.

"I'm downstairs at your house." It's still the same concise words.

"...wait."
