Reality is a kind of evil existence, often when you are happier,
The more unexpected developments that make you unhappy will happen.
It's like being caught off guard when going to a concert for the first time, like a trip to a gourmet paradise that should be eating, drinking and having fun,
Just like that vague 'coincidence', Fangran has been wondering if this is some kind of bad joke that fate played on him,
He always makes sneak attacks when he is happiest and relaxed, when he doesn't think about all kinds of complicated things, and abruptly turns his face to look directly at those crises, forcing him to make choices in a short time.
It's like the fear and remorse we met when we ran happily and worry-free in the streets of the magic city, like the light spots that show insufficient power and go out in the bonfire night that extends from the lively daily life...
On the sixth day of wandering in London, Fangran, who had gotten used to the status quo and even looked forward to working every day, felt very happy. After completely solving the financial problem, he was enjoying the massage and new clothes in comfort.
He heard a voice asking him to return and leave the real world.
"Ma'am...let me pick you up."
At the moment when he was wondering why such a man would come to the supermarket, Fangran heard him lower his voice and speak in a deep voice, his eyes froze for a second, then he slowly lowered his eyes...
The action of counting the goods in his hands did not stop, as if he was receiving customers as usual, at the same time Fangran calmly glanced around with lowered eyes, Tang Bing's figure was still busy on the shelf, and another cashier was playing with his mobile phone to abscond, There were no other customers in line either.
"Well, I see."
There seemed to be no surprise at all in a calm tone, as if he had been waiting, the moment he heard the other party's words, about the mysterious plan under the surface of the national war, about everyone still trapped in the scene of the night scene, as if he had switched his thinking, Fang Ran's voice He spoke in a low voice, which made the man slightly taken aback.
"You don't doubt my identity..."
"The only one who can find me here is Grandma Shui, and..."
When handing him the item, he had already changed into the look that the cashier should have, which was the complete opposite of the calm and whispered words.
"If you are those people, there is no need to do so much."
Then, before getting up and leaving the cash register after saying this, he glanced back at him and said:
"Give me some time, I still have something to deal with, and it's troublesome if it's still bright."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you in the car on the nearby street."
The short conversation was not noticed by anyone, as if it was a very ordinary checkout scene, Fangran glanced at his position behind the cashier, then turned and left.
"Ah, junior sister!"
"Huh? What's the matter, senior?"
Tang Bing, who was holding a pile of toothpaste and putting it on the shelf, looked at Fangran who suddenly came to his side in a strange way, and then saw his expression of sighing that his long-cherished wish had been fulfilled.
"Ah~ I got a call just now, someone finally came to get me..."
"Eh!? So you're going back to Peking University, senior?"
Tang Bing, who was quite surprised when he heard this, blinked, then scratched his head in a super-fake, super-artificial way, and smiled shyly in a long and shy tone.
"Hey~~ah~~~, I was thinking that senior, you come to London once in a while, and I will take you out to some interesting places when you have time~ I didn't expect you to go back so soon... What a pity "
"Then today's work is almost over anyway, let's go out for a walk in the evening."
"Σ(°?°*)eh..."
"Σ(?Д?*) ehhhhhhh?!?!?"
Senior... at night... ask me out... go out... go around!
...
Dusk is over, and it is the moment of darkness.
One side of the sky was completely dark, but the other side was still faintly transparent.
"That senior..."
"Well, so soon, your work is done? Here, here you are."
At the entrance of the supermarket in Stratford, Fangran, who worked shorter hours than Tang Bing, was wearing a hood, biting the edge of a can of hot cocoa and watching.
Tang Bing came out of the supermarket hesitantly with his schoolbag on his back, and said unexpectedly that he gave her the hot coffee in his hand.
"Ah! Thank you senior, um... um... I just told Mrs. Isis to go back early today..."
The usually sunny and lively school girl didn't know why she suddenly became honest at this time, so Fangran stared at her silently for a while, and forced Tang Bing to stare at her with a smile, then raised her eyebrows and asked incomprehensibly:
"Why are you carrying a schoolbag?"
"Uh... ahem! Well... I just have something to take back with me..."
Tang Bing's eyes drifted upwards, explaining with a guilty conscience, and then quickly changed the topic to try to guide the direction of the proposal:
"Hey, senior, where are we going now? How about I take you to the Financial City!? Senior, you haven't been there, right? There are many high-rise buildings that are rare in London. There are many places to visit..."
"No."
Why did you reject it so quickly...
Looking at Fangran who refused to go to crowded places in seconds, Tang Bing's expression froze like an old-fashioned machine stuck, Fangran looked at her in a slightly strange way and asked:
"Speaking of which, junior, why did you seem to be very nervous from just now?"
"Eh... the one in my family who won't let me go to the bar, and Mrs. Isis can't go back too late..."
"Oh yes, but why bring this up all of a sudden?"
Hearing Fangran's nonchalant answer, and remembering the meaningful smile when Mrs. Isis handed him her schoolbag just now, Tang Bing grabbed the neckline and looked up at Fangran. His face was reddish because of embarrassment, and he whispered vigilantly:
"Senior, you asked me out at night, don't you... have some unreasonable idea...."
"It's not you big head ghost"
Finally figured out what this guy was nervous about, and Fang Ran, who had almost gotten used to her character, sighed long, and hit her head with a hand knife, and immediately struck Tang Bing with his head in his arms, jumping out of his hair, cried out tearfully:
"?(>д
How should I put it, she was completely helpless for the schoolgirl she picked up, and Fangran sighed while holding her forehead speechlessly:
"I just want to treat you to a meal and thank you before I leave."
And school girl, don't you think you can't count in your heart...
"Really!!??"
As soon as he heard that someone invited him to dinner, Tang Bing immediately returned to his usual appearance with high spirits. All the nervousness and fried hair disappeared, and only the slight blush on his cheeks spread slightly in the night wind...
"Well, whatever you choose, I'll pay..."
On the streets of London at night, the young man in the white hood looked at the lively and happy cheering of the girl in the bright red cartoon jacket in front of him, and smiled helplessly at her.
"It just so happens that I recently found out about a nice store, it's nearby, let's go, senior!"
Following her bright red cartoon jacket, she walked through the streets and alleys of England all the way, just like when he was standing at the crossroads of this huge maze because of the language barrier at the beginning,
The first meeting that led the way for him... .
