Luo Ling's suggestion was somewhat peculiar. Generally speaking, no one would think of visiting a school.
Even Felicia was a little confused. She asked, "Why do you want to visit our school?"
"I just had an idea. From talking with you, I realized that those missing people and even this accident are almost forgotten. If no one mentions this incident anymore, eventually even our relatives will slowly forget what they looked like.
So, I want to write a report to record the stories between those who have passed away and their loved ones. It is a good idea to start from Algodo. I want to walk through the places he walked, find his footprints, and then with your help, record his story on paper. Then, even if ten or twenty years have passed, you will be able to relive his story from this report. "
Felicia was moved by her almost instantly, and even felt a little touched, and felt that she had a sense of mission to make this happen. If there is such a report literature at that time, she will share it with Catherine, which is the best reward for her waiting for so many years.
"You'll write it in Spanish, right?"
"I'll translate it. I think Carmela will like it."
"Well, of course, what kind of help do you need?" Felicia asked seriously.
"Let's go visit the place where you once lived, and the place where you have memories. If it's convenient, I'd like to invite you and your husband Bermudo to dinner. I'm sure he has many stories to tell." Luo Ling said, "How about making the school where you studied together the first stop?"
"Okay. Wait a moment, I'll go close the flower shop and take you there." Felicia ran to the next door, closed the door, and hung up a sign saying it was closed. Then she took Xiao Chen and Luo Ling to their school.
The area Felicia took them through had many old houses, and they had left their footprints in many places in these neighborhoods.
As they walked through an alley, Felicia stopped in front of a stone wall and said, "Look here."
At a certain position in front of the stone wall, two hearts pierced by a bow and arrow were carved with a knife, and "a" and "c" were written on the two hearts. The carving looked quite old, and a lot of moss had grown on it. Felicia said, "This was left by Algordo and Catherine, when they had just entered middle school."
Walking past a staircase overlooking the beach, she continued, "This is where we often sit and chat after class. We say a lot of silly things here that belong to young people. We imagine what the future will be like. Sometimes we want to be a star player, sometimes we want to be a mayor, or a movie star, or a sailor. We also make all kinds of promises to travel around the world together and change the world."
"Everyone has moments like this, don't they? When you think back on these moments, you'll realize that the world is actually quite lovely," Luo Ling said.
"Isn't it cute? What you say is really interesting. However, most of these things have not come true. They are just daydreams of youth. But... some of them have come true. For example, Algodo went to China, and Bermudo married me." Felicia sighed.
The middle school they attended really looked very old. Whether it was the rust on the door or the moss on the wall, it seemed to be telling stories of the past. At this time, the students in the school had already finished school. Felicia took Xiao Chen and Luo Ling through the campus and told them one by one where their classrooms were and where they played. Algordo was scolded by the teacher in that office and cried. Bermudo used that corner as their secret camp. She had to thank the almost unchanging rhythm of the times in Europe. Many traces of her memory could still be found in this campus.
Xiao Chen listened silently, imprinting these scenes into his mind one by one.
As it was getting close to evening, Luo Ling found a restaurant recommended by many tourists on Dianping.com and invited Felicia and Bermudo to dinner.
The three of them arrived at the restaurant first. At about seven o'clock, a man in a windbreaker came to their seat. Bermudo looked much older than he did in the photo. He was a mature and steady man. He was dressed in a business-like manner. It was said that he had just returned from a visit to a client company. His brown hair was neatly combed, and the short beard left by his mouth was very manly. Under his straight eyebrows, his eyes gave people a very deep feeling. Xiao Chen's mental power was extremely strong. Even if he did not show his edge, ordinary people would feel a kind of pressure when they looked at him, and unconsciously avoided his direct gaze. However, Bermudo did not dodge at all and smiled at him.
Xiao Chen's intuition told him that this was a very powerful person. In this world, he would be a business elite. If he were in that world, as long as the opportunity was right, he would become the strongest person in that world and the enemy of all mankind. Xiao Chen had a hunch that if his brother was very similar to him in some aspects, the God of Nature would be very difficult to deal with.
No wonder among so many ancient gods, the one who had the last laugh was the brother in front of him.
"It turns out he is a friend from China. In fact, like me, Algodo, he is very interested in China. During the summer vacation of his first year studying abroad, Catherine and I went to China to see him. We traveled in China for half a month. It is a very beautiful place. If my mother had not needed care at that time, I might have gone to study abroad with him." Bermudo's words were very comfortable to hear.
After a few pleasantries, Felicia gave a basic introduction to Xiao Chen and Luo Ling, and then talked about Luo Ling's reportage plan. Bermudo listened very carefully and was very interested in Luo Ling's plan.
"You are a kind and wise person." He picked up the wine glass and gently clinked it with Luo Ling's glass while praising, "My mother and poor Catherine will definitely be grateful to you. Catherine and I have always had some connection in the book, and I can feel that she has not really come out of it, and her life is not happy. Maybe if you write something like that, it will give her a real period. I will tell you anything you need to know about Algodo."
"You know, it takes a lot of details to make a story come alive. Any details you mention can help me portray a more realistic Algodo," said Luo Ling.
Bermudo smiled and said, "Maybe we can start with some of the stupid things he did when he was a kid. There are some stories here that Felicia may not know."
