The end of the sports meeting is earlier than the usual school day, and no late self-study is arranged.
The sports students will still insist on training these few nights, after all, there will be a competition soon.
After the training, Hou Mo returned to the dormitory with the bath basket, and Ran Shu was the only one in the dormitory.
He casually asked, "Where's Brother Yu?"
Ran Shu glanced at Hou Mo, not wanting to answer, he hesitated for a while before answering: "Brother Yu, he went to read in the classroom."
Suihou Yu became the class monitor and had a spare key for the class, so he began to abuse his power, going to the classroom to read books from time to time.
It was time to turn off the lights in the dormitory, but not in the classroom. He couldn't sleep anyway, so he just stayed in the classroom and read.
Unexpectedly, there will be a sports meeting, and Suihou Yu is still very serious.
Hou Mo put away his things, and then said to Ran Shu: "Can you chat with me? Actually, you were hesitant to talk that day, which made me very concerned."
Ran Shu refused very quickly: "No."
"I know Brother Yu gave you a warning like a gag order, but I still want to know. I was not very sensible when I was young, but I just found him annoying. Thinking about it recently, I may not understand him. For example, I didn't know what mania was as a kid."
In fact, after learning of Sui Hou Yu's identity, Hou Mo also thought a lot.
Things that were once incomprehensible suddenly became understandable. I was ignorant when I was young, and I didn't know that being too noisy by myself might be due to illness or involuntary control.
Now that I think about it carefully, the sense of guilt has increased sharply.
Ran Shu was taken aback, he didn't expect Hou Mo to know about this.
Only a few people know about Sui Houyu's mania. Many people think that Sui Houyu has a bad personality, or is not normal, like a lunatic, but they don't know the secret.
Unexpectedly, Hou Mo knew it.
"How do you know?" Ran Shu sat up straight for a moment, and spoke faster to show his shock.
"So can you talk to me?"
Ran Shu slumped against the head of the bed again: "I can't."
"After all, we are roommates in the same dormitory. What if I spit in your cup, rub an unwashed peach on your quilt, and secretly pour water into your shampoo?"
Ran Shu put down his phone and looked at Hou Mo, and couldn't help but ask, "You, why are you such a dog?"
"Just chat, okay?" Hou Mo was still smiling like an angel, as if what he just said had nothing to do with him.
Ran Shu was helpless, and agreed after thinking for a while. A person came in from time to time in the dormitory, and it was not very quiet. Hou Mo took Ran Shu to the corridor of the dormitory on the fourth floor.
The bedroom floors that are not in use are much quieter, giving them room to talk.
The floor here is not tiled, the air is filled with the smell of smoke and dust, and the atmosphere is very industrial.
After Ran Shu came over, he sat on a window sill and asked him, "What do you want to ask?"
It seems that people who learn to dance are very light in body, and Ran Shu was also very relaxed when he jumped onto the window sill.
"I'm very curious about what you are hesitant to say." What Hou Mo has always cared about is these few unspoken words.
Ran Shu sighed, and then said: "Actually, Brother Yu had a very good impression of you when he was a child, because you were the only one who was willing to patiently coax him to sleep. He has struggled to sleep since he was a child. After all, he has mania... He was invited by the family. The nanny secretly gave him sleeping pills... "
"It turned out that I suddenly found out that I put him to sleep just because I was annoying him and didn't want to play with him, so he was very angry, right?"
"Sure!" After Ran Shu finished speaking, he gave Hou Mo a blank look.
But soon Ran Shu slowed down.
He has no brains to protect Sui Houyu, but after thinking about it carefully, he also understands why Hou Mo hates Sui Houyu. Suihou Yu was an abnormal child when he was a child, with a big temper, restless and talkative.
Ran Shu lowered his head slightly, and continued: "No, but it's normal for you to hate him, it's just... he had mania, and he couldn't control himself when he was a child. Brother Yu is much better now..."
"Well, I also found that he seems to have changed a lot. He used to talk a lot."
"He was not like this at the beginning." Ran Shu said, looking up at him, and said with the most serious expression so far, "Have you heard of electroshock therapy?"
"Electric shock?" Hou Mo's voice trembled when he asked this sentence.
This is a method he has only heard of in rumors.
Ran Shu shook his head again: "Actually, it doesn't count, it will be anesthetized, and then an electric current will be introduced here in the head. It will need to be hospitalized for a while, once every other day."
"A regular hospital?"
"The mental health center...is a regular hospital."
There is also a mental health center in Hou Mo's concept, but a small number of people call it a mental hospital directly.
He would pass by there sometimes, and saw someone clapping the window frantically, and then he was restrained, and occasionally he could hear someone inside shouting out the window.
He frowned slightly, with his flaxen hair slanted across his forehead, imagining how Sui Houyu received treatment.
Hou Mo didn't know much about this treatment method, but was subconsciously worried.
Ran Shu continued: "Actually, I, I think... Brother Yu can bear this kind of treatment, but what hit him the hardest was probably being treated as a mental illness by his family members. His family members didn't understand him, and felt He hates it, so after he was discharged from the hospital, he stopped laughing and talked less... Maybe he wanted to protect himself, and he didn't want to be friends with others."
"why?"
"I'm afraid that if we become friends, the friend will find out that he is not normal, and if we stay away from him, it will be even more sad."
Hou Mo suddenly understood that Sui Hou Yu's avoidance of him today was because he didn't want to get too close to him, so let's be disappointed again.
When self-protection becomes a habit, indifference can become a disguise.
Today's silence is the scab accumulated from the pain of the past, and I wish I could wrap myself in a thick shell.
No more expectations, no more injuries.
Ran Shu looked at Hou Mo's appearance, and didn't know if what he said was right.
He began to talk about the past: "Brother Yu, he was hospitalized for several months. This is just one of the treatment methods. I don't know what else I have experienced. I asked him and he didn't say anything. During the semester, the school wanted him to stay for the first grade, but Brother Yu spent a month studying by himself, and his test scores were better than those who stayed in the school, so he stayed."
After a pause, he continued: "He is, it is for me. He is afraid that I will be bullied by myself, and he will not be able to protect me. He was not good at studying, and he suddenly got better after that."
After thinking for a while, he said again: "I, I heard from brother Yu that I can fall asleep next to you. I think maybe brother Yu hasn't recognized you yet, but my body remembers you, so I can fall asleep when I get close to you. "
After speaking, I felt something was wrong.
The body remembers him
Why is that weird
Hou Mo was also reminded, and suddenly realized: "So it is."
Ran Shu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Since, since he can fall asleep by your side, can you sleep with my brother Yu?"
"Huh?!" Hou Mo was taken aback by this sudden turn.
"Brother Yu has developed to the point where you need to inject drugs to fall asleep. Later, the drugs are no longer effective. You are better than taking medicine, so you can help me out. At worst, I will give you a hundred yuan for sleeping. You Open WeChat, I will transfer you three thousand first, and come with a monthly subscription."
There were too many slots, and Hou Mo didn't know where to start to refute for a while, so he asked, "I'll give you one hundred for sleeping with me?"
"No, I don't need you to do anything. Besides, if you did it, our brother Yu is still unwilling. You are at best a pillow, a prop! You are not considered a sex buddy, at most you are a sleeping buddy. Besides, we have a large amount Ah! We're taking the amount!"
"No..." Hou Mo said again, "It's not about the money, the problem is that Brother Yu doesn't talk to me now."
"Then I have nothing to do."
"How did you become friends with him?" Hou Mo could only find another way.
"I, I played with him cutely when I was young, but I didn't coax him to sleep. If I do, can it be your turn?"
"What about Su Anyi?"
"She helped Brother Yu fight."
"A girl helping fight?"
"Hehe—" Ran Shu suddenly laughed, "Brother Yu can't beat Su Anyi, didn't you expect that?"
Hou Mo was really stunned.
He and Suihou Yu will be able to fight to a tie, but Suihouyu can't beat Su Anyi
"The two of them actually fought?" Hou Mo couldn't help being curious.
"It's just a sparring, but Su Anyi's brother Yu is more capable of carrying it. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stop Su Anyi's three moves."
Hou Mo couldn't help rubbing his head: "I'll think of a way. He... added me on WeChat before, just to be friends with me, right?"
"Yeah, but you ignored him, and now you're bothering him and lying. You just stepped on brother Yu's thunder point and did a tap dance at that point."
"I see, thank you for being willing to tell me this."
Ran Shu jumped off the window sill, patted his buttocks and went back upstairs.
Hou Mo walked around the dormitory building alone, and then quietly ran to the teaching building.
The teaching building was very quiet, like a behemoth that had entered a state of hibernation.
Hou Mo deliberately walked lightly in the corridor, and finally looked in through the vertical window at the door of the class, and saw that Sui Hou Yu had unlocked a new reading posture—plank reading.
Sui Hou Yu put a school uniform jacket under his arm, and at the same time read the book seriously.
His hair was really thick. In this posture, Hou Mo couldn't even see his face, only the tip of his nose could be vaguely seen.
Hou Mo hesitated whether to go in and say something with Hou Yu.
As a result, Sui Hou Yu seemed to have noticed him, looked up at the door, then got up, walked over to open the door, and asked, "Want to come in?"
"Well, get something." Hou Mo replied subconsciously.
After answering, I wish I could bite my tongue.
Can't you just say that you came to find him? Hou Mo walked into the classroom, rummaged through his seat in a dignified manner, and then took a book.
Suihou Yu also returned to her place, packed her bags and left.
Hou Mo immediately followed him out of the classroom, not forgetting to turn off the lights and lock the classroom door before leaving.
The two walked out of the teaching building one after the other.
Sui Houyu was wearing a T-shirt and black baggy shorts. Hou Mo kept staring at his slender legs. He always felt that Sui Houyu's legs were too slender, making his shoes look too big, as if a child was secretly wearing an adult's shoes.
Maybe it's because the sky is extraordinarily bright in the suburbs.
A silver line poured from the sky, and on the line was a river of falling stars. The stars are dotted, hidden in the ripples of the soft clouds from time to time.
Suihou Yu's pace was fast, he walked quickly into the night, his thin and slender body tore apart the silent night scene.
Look at the galaxy, there are many stars.
But there is always an extraordinary encounter between a star and a star.
Perhaps, that dim star will become radiant because of another star.
Hou Mo hurried to catch up with Hou Yu, obviously staggered by a position, but in the shadow of the street lamp, the two seemed to be walking side by side and intimately, and the height difference made up for this part.
The shadow gradually elongated and shortened, and then elongated again when it was within the range of the next light, as if it was always cuddling.
Sui Hou Yu seemed to have noticed, and looked back at Hou Mo.
Hou Mo met his gaze and smiled gently at him.
Hou Mo's eyes were very light in color, and under the illumination of the street lamp, they were coated with a layer of orange light, like glass, with a soft light, so gentle.
He said softly: "Actually, I didn't go to the classroom to pick up books, I was looking for you."
Suihou Yu asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"Well, there is something."
