Fu Cuo was woken up by the cold, and when he woke up, he found that he had fallen asleep on a park bench, which was a bit embarrassing. His shoulders were a little numb from the pressure of AK's head. He sat up a little, and something rolled down on his body. He subconsciously lowered his head and grabbed it. It was a bottle of Nongfu Spring.

He raised his head and saw Sui Qingchi sitting on the armrest of the bench with one leg slanted across the armrest. Fu Cuo saw his black guitar bag leaning against him*, Sui Qingchi held the phone in one hand, and rested on the guitar bag with the other.

There was a wrinkle in the center of the back of the boy's black T-shirt, which should have been caused by leaning against him after he fell asleep. Fu Cuo was a little embarrassed, and sat up and asked, "What time is it? Why didn't you call us?"

Sui Qingchi didn't answer him, but lowered his head to the phone, not knowing what he was thinking, his back was very silent. Fu Cuo took out his phone and looked at it, and found that he had slept for an hour: "It's three o'clock?" He looked up at Sui Qingchi again, "You just sat here watching us for an hour?"

Sui Qingchi stood up, picked up the guitar bag and carried it on her shoulder, and said, "Let's go when you wake up."

Fu Cuo felt that something was wrong, because Sui Qingchi didn't look back at him when he spoke, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, because the boy named Sui Qingchi was originally very mysterious.

Before the high school entrance examination, there is a direct entrance examination. Students who meet the standard can directly enter the high school of the school. Fu Cuo was promoted together with Tan Si back then. Later, I got to know AK, and only then did I have the fate of Xifeng. Sui Qingchi also took the direct entrance exam this year, and AK was a little surprised when he heard it: "Master, you can go to a better school with this grade, although our school is not bad..."

Fu Cuo didn't think there was anything wrong. Although Sui Qingchi's grades were good, but this kind of thing related to further education and future, we should try our best to be safe. After all, there were many top students who failed in the high school entrance examination. After observation, the fluctuation is quite large. When it is good, it can enter the top ten in the grade, and when it is not good, it can run twenty. The top ten of their school's grades can almost all enter the top high schools in the city, and they are a little bit hanging when they are over twenty, so they might as well stay in this school.

I don't know which high school Sui Qingchi plans to take, and whether it will be far away from them. Xifeng managed to have such a lead singer, which is too amazing and dazzling. AK is always looking forward to the future, but he dare not hope for a long time.

Because Sui Qingchi was going to prepare for the direct entrance exam, they stopped rehearsing and performing for a week that week. After school, Fu Cuo came to the alley where King Abyss lived with a bag of cat food. , the shop next to it was being renovated, the electric drill drilled deafeningly on the wall, the alley was piled with garbage and building materials with a strong smell, it was a mess, and the king of the abyss was nowhere to be found.

He searched all the way along that street, and every time he yelled the words "King of the Abyss", the passers-by would look sideways. The street was at the end, but the missing black cat was still not found.

He stopped at the crossroads at the end of the block, facing the suddenly open area, he suddenly felt a little at a loss, his fingers were tightly digging into the pockets of cat food, regret filled his heart, regret that he did not bring the King of the Abyss back then Family.

He may never find it again.

Until dark, Fu Cuo was still searching in that block, asking nearby shops and residents if they had seen a black cat wearing a red collar, and no one knew the whereabouts of the Abyss King.

At eight o'clock in the evening, I came out of the convenience store dejectedly, and suddenly heard Sui Qingchi's voice: "Fu wrong?"

He turned his head and saw Sui Qingchi standing by the window of the convenience store with a poke of instant noodles in his hand. When he saw him, he put the fork back into the paper cup and asked him, "What are you doing here?"

Fu Cuo looked at Sui Qingchi, as if he had lost the other party's most precious thing, and it took a long time before he said with difficulty: "...the king of the abyss is gone."

Sui Qingchi looked at him.

Fu Cuo thought in a panic, I have to find something to comfort him...

Sui Qingchi blinked suddenly, and said, "I'm not missing you." He put down the bowl of cup noodles, put his backpack on his shoulder, walked out and said, "I'll take you to find it."

Passing through the intersection, there is a residential area on the opposite side. The wrought-iron fence next to the gate of the community is adjacent to the flower bed below. A row of lights are lit at the bottom of the flower bed, illuminating the neatly built grove about one meter high. Sui Qingchi took him over, squatted there and called the Abyss King. After a while, Fu Cuo saw the black cats coming out of the bushes, wearing their red collars, still very proud.

It turned out that there was only one street away, Fu Cuo thought to himself, it made me worry to death. At that moment, I felt as if I was facing a life and death, and my nose was sore.

Sui Qingchi squatted there scratching the cat's chin, looked back at him, and said, "It's being renovated over there, it's noisy and dirty."

Fu Cuo asked: "Did you bring it here?"

Sui Qingchi shook his head: "It came by itself, I just followed behind it."

"As expected of the king of the abyss..." Fu Cuo smiled and looked at the black cat.

Sui Qingchi looked up and saw that there seemed to be a layer of water in Fu Cuo's eyes. Because they were illuminated by the street lights, those eyes became particularly bright and clean, as if those moved and thankful emotions had turned into trembling lights in the eyes. , he unconsciously cared a little bit, and wanted to say "Do you think it's dead", but felt that this was too cruel, maybe the eighteen-year-old brother could really shed tears when he said it, and closed his mouth after struggling and struggling.

Fu Cuo walked to Sui Qingchi and squatted down, grabbed a handful of cat food and fed it to the king of the abyss, looked up at the new residence, and said to the cat: "You have a good vision, this place looks like a castle."

Sui Qingchi also looked back, there were towering spires, lawns and bushes, and twinkling lights, it really looked like a miniature version of Swan Castle.

Fu Cuo bowed his head and asked the Abyss King: "Do you want to live in the castle or go home with me?"

The cat only cared about eating and ignored him. Instead, Sui Qingchi looked at him and asked, "Your house is rented, can you keep cats?"

Sui Qingchi's guess was right, the landlord gave repeated orders not to keep pets in the house, not even a guinea pig, let alone a cat, but Fu Cuo was very afraid that he would not be able to find the Abyss King next time, even if he really couldn't. He really wants to keep it.

Sui Qingchi looked down at Fu Cuo's hand, which was handsome and sexy for playing the guitar, yet so gentle towards the cat... "Or I'll keep it," he said.

Fu Cuo froze for a moment: "... can I?"

"I'll try," Sui Qingchi said, "Talk to them and see if it works."

Who are they referring to? Fu Cuo thought, not talking about family members, not talking about parents, just "they"... Although Sui Qingchi said it so lightly, he could hear that it was not easy at all: "No, don't force it, I will find a way."

"Just try it." Sui Qingchi said.

Fu Cuo looked at him, but Sui Qingchi didn't look at him, and his voice sounded lacklustre for the first time.

Sui Qingchi returned home, and behind the opened door was a dark living room, with a backpack hanging down his calf, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned on the light by the door, lowered his head and slowly changed his shoes, walked in The living room threw the backpack on the sofa.

It is said that he has returned to China, but it has been a week and no one has come back. He is worried every day when he goes home, for fear of opening the door and seeing the lights on in the house.

Because he only ate two mouthfuls of the instant noodles, the nanny asked for leave again. On the way back, he bought a piece of toast, took out a can of Laoganma from the refrigerator, spread it on the toast with a razor blade, and ate it.

Lying on the kitchen counter, biting the piece of toast in a daze, when he was a child, he raised a guinea pig, but it ended up being thrown out of the window. At that time, he had nothing to do but feel uncomfortable, but now he is sixteen years old , if you can't even protect your own pets, then it's really boring...

What's more, he almost lives in this house alone, and his mother plays everywhere all year round. This time, she will fly away after returning to China, so she shouldn't care about what he raises, as long as the nanny and auntie don't complain.

Tomorrow he will face the direct entrance exam, but he was distracted by such things. Before he left, Fu Cuo asked him how he was preparing for tomorrow's exam, and he replied absent-mindedly, "Don't worry about it." Not ready.

His life has always been a mess, no amount of preparation is useless, only when the mess is entangled, he resigns himself to untie the knots one by one.
