Fu Cuo didn't know how he got all the way to that crossroads. He clearly told himself that those people had an enmity with Sui Qingchi and could say any slander, but he still couldn't explain the sudden acceleration when he heard that sentence. heartbeat.
It's like liking a cat and suddenly discovering that the cat is terribly human, and maybe he has developed a ridiculous liking for him. He wants to say that he really only likes the cat to a normal degree, and he thinks the cat must be I made a mistake, but I was also upset by this mistake. Maybe those guys said these things to him just to drive a wedge between him and Sui Qingchi, but after hearing this, he didn't have any negative emotions aroused, some were just distressed.
This kind of handle was caught by those people with malicious intentions, that's why Sui Qingchi helped them cheat. Such a proud person was caught by his weakness, and he was the weakness that made him have to compromise...
He walked to the entrance of the community with a heavy heart, stood there and called out the Abyss King numbly several times, but the black cat who would definitely show up after calling out a few times in the past has not shown up for a long time.
He recovered from the inexplicable emotion a little bit, and searched around the outside of the community, the Abyss King seemed to be missing again.
Did you run into the community? He couldn't enter the community, so he had to ask the old woman outside the community, who was sitting with a puppy under a big tree to cool off, if she had seen a black cat with a red collar around its neck.
Seeing the cat food and water in his hand, the old woman raised her head and asked with some regret, "Are you feeding that cat too?"
Fu Cuo was a little taken aback by the regretful eyes of the old man.
The old man turned his head and looked at the garbage truck of the sanitation worker on the side of the road: "When I walked the dog in the morning, I passed the garbage truck and saw the bloody cat lying in it, already dead..."
Fu Cuo was struck by lightning, and before the old man finished speaking, he ran to the garbage truck, but there was no cat's body inside.
The old man walked over leading the dog, waved his hand and said, "It's not in there anymore. Then a boy came and took it away from the garbage dump."
Fu Cuo sent Sui Qingchi a message, asking where he was, but Sui Qingchi didn't reply. It started to rain again at night, he was drenched in the rain and ran in the streets and alleys, he was still carrying cat food and water, reluctant to put it down, he always felt that it might be just a misunderstanding, he always felt that he would see the king of the abyss coming out of nowhere...
He didn't find the King of the Abyss, but he found Sui Qingchi. At the station outside the rehearsal warehouse, the lights of a bus in front lit up, and the white light passed through the misty rain. He saw Sui Qingchi sitting alone at the station.
He was still wearing that black hooded sweater and was holding something in his arms. Fu Cuo knew that there was no more luck, so he tried his best to control his expression, carrying the water and cat food that were no longer useful, and walked towards Sui Qingchi who was quietly bowing his head.
When he walked in front of him, Sui Qingchi didn't look up. Fu Cuo saw the black cat with Sui Qingchi on his lap, with his hands wrapped around it. It was wounded by a knife. He couldn't imagine what it had suffered before it was alive. torment.
He was trembling all over in the rainstorm, and after calming down over and over again, he slowly squatted down, looked up at Sui Qingchi, and said, "Let's find a place to bury it."
Sui Qingchi didn't cry, but his eyes began to waver the moment he saw him. Fu Cuo let go of his lips and took a deep breath. The sadness he wanted to shut up opened again the moment he saw Sui Qingchi's expression No, he didn't want to cry at such a time, there must be one between the two of them to be the support of the other at such a time, so he lowered his head to hide his expression and stood up, only took a step forward quietly, and held down the Sui Qingchi's shoulder.
The shoulder that was held down trembled suddenly, and it might also be because his hands were trembling too. When the two trembling bodies approached, the sadness increased.
Sui Qingchi grabbed his sleeve suddenly, pressed his head heavily on his chest, and let out a cry that Fu Cuo didn't want to hear again in his life.
It's really crying.
The pain that had been suppressed was completely vented at that moment. At that moment, he didn't spare his voice, he just wanted to let everyone hear that naked sadness that was not decorated with rhyme or lyrics.
Although two people have been feeding the Abyss King together, Fu Cuo knew that Sui Qingchi's affection for the Abyss King must be deeper than his. Sui Qingchi was the first to find the black cat and was marked by him. adopted each other. Every time I come to feed the cat, I always have to call a few times the king of the abyss before I come slowly, but when Sui Qingchi arrives, I look around in the bushes, and I can see the black cat squatting in the bushes Looking up at him with reflective eyes, as mischievous and tacit as waiting to be found by him.
He still remembers that once he came to feed the Abyss King outside the community, Sui Qingchi arrived a little earlier than him, when he was standing at the first red light on the road, he saw Sui Qingchi finished feeding the cat, squatting there and scratching the cat's chin for a long time, Then he got up and left, and then stopped behind a billboard on the side of the road, hid there and peeked at his black cat, the king of the abyss wagged his tail gracefully and entered its castle, Sui Qingchi really left, but After that, there was actually a little secret. At 7:30, the colorful lights at the gate of the community came on. Fu Cuo saw the King of the Abyss coming out of the bushes. He just stuck himself in the bushes and kept looking at Sui Qing. gallop away.
He likes the Abyss King so much, but he has to admit that Sui Qingchi and it are a natural match.
"I won't let them go..." Sui Qingchi choked up and trembled, "I won't let them go!!"
The body trembling of the person in the arms gradually changed, it was no longer sad and painful, it turned into anger and fury while gnashing his teeth, Fu Cuo felt that his clothes were tightened by Sui Qingchi's fist. He feels Sui Qingchi's pain, but he still doesn't want to see him like this. He likes the unruly and confident Sui Qingchi on the stage, who likes to secretly follow the King of the Abyss and give him a red collar as a confession. He knows that There are two extremely contradictory sides in Sui Qingchi's body, one side is as beautiful as the other side is crazy.
Maybe it's just for comfort, maybe just to let him calm down and not turn into a beast. When the vehicles on both sides of the street are gone, and there is nothing else around except heavy rain and street lights, he can't help but lower his head in the dim rain. , kissed Sui Qingchi's rain-drenched hair.
When he realized that Sui Qingchi was really quiet, he suddenly came back to his senses, what did he just do...
Sui Qingchi raised his head from his chest, the tears on his face were mixed with rainwater, his bangs were tangled up on his forehead in embarrassment, only those eyes looked at him with a strange light under the wet eyelashes.
Later he figured it out, that look in his eyes wasn't weird, it was himself who felt weird, because he was guilty and flustered, so he couldn't look straight at Sui Qingchi who asked him so bluntly. Obviously, it could just be out of his elder brother's concern for his younger brother. He didn't know why he was flustered and his mind went blank.
The bus behind him waded through the water, and Fu Cuo turned his head and fled to get on the bus. He didn't even dare to look at Sui Qingchi on the platform. He stood at the end of the carriage like a stiff nail, and the scenery outside the window was distorted by the heavy rain, just like him at this moment. Chaotic mind.
Sui Qingchi buried the Abyss King in a park near the community.
Covering the soil layer by layer, he stood up and threw away the branches used to dig the soil. Because the branches were thorny and hard, they had to be wrapped with sleeves. The wound was sharpened, and he looked down at the red palm. There was a dull pain in this position, but his heart seemed to be less painful.
The rain had stopped. He pulled down his hat and looked up at the cherry blossom tree: "...you sleep under it, and soon you will become the nourishment of this tree, so I can still visit you in the future."
In the end, he took two steps back, raised his mobile phone, took a picture of the tree, sent it to Fu Cuo, and wrote: I have already buried it.
Then put away the phone, turned and left.
Fu Cuo stood by the car window, and couldn't remember how many stations he had sat staring at the soaked windowpane. He took it out numbly, and saw the photo sent by Sui Qingchi.
The bus was getting off the passengers at the stop, he finally regained his sanity and ran out of the bus at the last moment.
The person who agreed to bury the Abyss King with two people, agreed to be the one who could support him, but he, the captain and brother, left this matter to such a sad Sui Qingchi.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when he came to the park. He walked to the cherry tree without comparing the photos. He stopped and turned on his phone. It turned out to be this one.
It must be because you are here, so I will feel it is kind. Fu Cuo thought to himself. He still has a lot to say to the Abyss King.
I'm sorry I couldn't bring you home sooner, I'm sorry I couldn't become an adult who can protect you sooner, I'm sorry I couldn't do anything for you until the end...
I'm sorry... I'm really sorry...
A tree branch full of mud fell on the grass. He walked over and squatted down to pick it up. Under the root of the tree, he could still see the traces of the soil being moved just now. He didn't even know how Sui Qingchi accomplished such a difficult task by himself. :
"They all think that I am very good, and that he is withdrawn and second-year-old, but I can only find courage from others, but his courage comes from himself. You are like me, we are one of the few in this world There are many good people who know him... If something like this happens, he must not be able to forgive himself, if you are watching him from heaven, please guard him."
The next day, after the rain was over, several couriers arrived. Sui Qingchi took back the couriers, sat on the sofa and took them apart one by one. The pink cat climbing frame was exposed. He stared at it for a long time. Putting down the knife in his hand, he buried his head and slowly squatted on the ground.
If we could start all over again, it would be nice if we never met each other, then I wouldn't be your disaster...
