The drizzle fell like a thin line, and the pale yellow umbrellas and white umbrellas dripped in the rain curtain.
The pale yellow umbrella swayed, sometimes to the left, sometimes leaning back on his shoulders, sometimes standing upright, but never resting for a moment.
In contrast, the white umbrella was covered high, and he stayed by the side straight and calm.
Li Xiaogui forgot the embarrassment just now, and said with a smile to Shen Chen: "Today's dim sum is made by my brother and I together, we made two boxes! The pink one was made by my brother, and the yellow one was made by my brother. I made it! You must eat the yellow box at noon, you know!"
Shen Chen: "Well."
Li Xiaogui smiled with satisfaction.

"Little devil!" At the door of the classroom, when Chen Hong and Li Xiaogui beckoned, they saw Shen Chen rubbing Li Xiaogui's head and left.
Li Xiaogui turned his head, "Ah."
Chen Hong noticed that Li Xiaogui's coat was too large and disrespectful, and the position of the shoulder line was shifted to the arm. This was no longer a boyfriend style, it was completely like a child stealing an adult's clothes.
Especially the kid is so thin, more like a sack.
"Little devil, your coat size is too big! As soon as you sit down, your whole body is gone! It's like being eaten by your coat."
Li Xiaogui heard what Chen Hong said as soon as he sat down, stunned for a moment, and muttered softly: "You are exaggerating, what does it mean that the whole person is not the same! It's just bigger."
"No no no, it's true! Because you're too skinny! How could you buy such a big coat?"
Li Xiaogui: "This is Shen Chen's coat."
Chen Hong's eyes widened, showing an expression of interest: "Oh! So it's a boyfriend. Tsk, it's really a boyfriend style."
Chen Hong smiled strangely.
Li Xiaogui: "Hey, no, not a boyfriend."
Chen Hong: "Eh? Isn't it?"
Li Xiaogui said seriously, "No."
Chen Hong's expression became a little regretful, "I thought... but you guys really seem like, eh, do you like Shen Chen?"
Li Xiaogui's eyelids opened to both sides, a little grand: "..."
Chen Hong: "Hey, I guessed it right! I knew you had a situation! It's impossible! Hee hee kid, do you like Shen Chen?"
The voice in my ears gradually faded away.
【Do you like Shen Chen? 】
Ah, Li Xiaogui suddenly lost his mind strangely. When he remembered his graduation, it seemed that someone had asked this question.
It was Xu Li who asked. He was very strange that day. He neither deliberately found fault nor mocked her.
【Do you like Shen Chen? 】
Li Xiaogui tried his best to recall how he felt when he heard it at that time.
that time... ...
It seems that she is patronizing and wants to get rid of Xu Li after listening to Xu Li's words...
Then, I saw Shen Chen.
Then...
My heart is beating so fast, I can't think about it.
Li Xiaogui's temples swelled with the beating heart of his chest.
Until the sudden throbbing pain in her lower abdomen brought her back to her senses, she found an excuse to temporarily withdraw her emotions.
"hiss!"
Seeing the kid suddenly frown, Chen Hong stopped talking and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Li Xiaogui: "Well, my stomach hurts a bit."
Chen Hong: "Are you okay? What did you eat in the morning?"
Li Xiaogui shook his head: "I ate it at home in the morning. It's fine, just a little pain. Just bear with it."
Chen Hong looked at her worriedly. After a while, Li Xiaogui put down his hand covering his stomach: "It doesn't seem to hurt anymore."
Li Xiaogui: "The teacher is here, let's go to class."
Chen Hong nodded and turned around.
×××
At the end of the morning class, Chen Hong turned around and asked Li Xiaogui: "Little devil, are you eating alone at noon? Or with Shen Chen?"
Li Xiaogui: "Together."
"Oh, that's fine." Since we're together, we're not going to be a light bulb.
Chen Hong said: "Then I'll go to dinner first, goodbye!"
Li Xiaogui nodded, and felt a familiar pain in his lower abdomen. Ah, he wanted to go to the bathroom.
There is only one bathroom on each floor of the teaching building, and now the get out of class has just ended, and people are queuing for the bathroom. Li Xiaogui thought for a while, sent a WeChat message to Shen Chen, got up and went to the only bathroom in the impression that there might not be so many people.
Haunted restroom.
"Go to the bathroom! Let's meet Xiaojing by the way!" Li Xiaogui curved his eyes and showed a bright smile.
- "Come to see me on the toilet? What nonsense are you talking about!" The ghost in the mirror screamed in the broken mirror!
"It stinks. Fortunately, Xiaojing can't smell it."
"Mirror what mirror! Who allows you to be called Xiaojing! Did I tell you that my name is Xiaojing?"
"Then what's your name?" Li Xiaogui asked with flickering hazel eyes.
Li Xiaogui's eyes are very good-looking, with long eyelashes, curled front ends, and very pale pupils, which are very clear when seen up close. It is conceivable that if there is light in, they will be very beautiful.
As beautiful as the sun-reflecting bubbles that its memory blows when it blows bubbles.
The rain had stopped during the first class in the morning, and the sun had long been as hot as it should be at noon, shining in through the window and falling on the tiles behind Li Xiaogui.
The mirror ghost glanced at the light spot on the tile, and his eyes fell on Li Xiaogui's curled eyelashes and thin pupils.
The mirror ghost suddenly stopped being angry, it snorted and stared at Li Xiaogui's eyes: "My name is Xia Xia. There is no Xiao, and no mirror! You, you, you, don't get so close to me, to scare anyone, step back! "
"Oh." Li Xiaogui obediently took a step back.
"No, it's still too close, scary! Step back a little bit."
Li Xiaogui then took another step back.
"Go back further."
"Go back again!"
"Xia Xia, is it alright?"
Li Xiaogui finally stood under the light, looked up at the mirror ghost, the sunlight entered her eyes, and the brilliance was clear.
"Hmm. Okay."
Sunshine is in.
The mirror ghost is very satisfied.
It once blew such a beautiful bubble. It used the broken bowl, dishwashing liquid and straws that the person picked up from the garbage heap. It was dirty and simple, but the bubbles were very clean. The bubbles blew under the sun and were dyed. the color of the sun.
Very, very nice.
"So far." Li Xiaogui muttered.
The mirror ghost snorted: "This distance is just right! The mirror is broken like this, you are still standing so close, don't you know that the mirror is very scary?"
Li Xiaogui whispered, "You are so cowardly."
After she finished speaking in a low voice, she was afraid of being scolded by the mirror ghost, and immediately said, "Then do you want to change the mirror? Ah, yes, can you change the mirror? Are you an Earthbound Spirit?"
The mirror ghost said: "Of course not! I can go wherever I want! I chose the mirror in the bathroom because I can see the most beautiful girls here doing makeup and lipstick!"
It paused and said angrily: "...It should be like this, but I don't know why there are fewer and fewer people behind."
Li Xiaogui thought of those weird rumors, and looked at the mirror ghost in the broken glass with his teeth and claws in embarrassment, why else
Not scared of you.
The mirror ghost hummed angrily: "It's just right that it's broken, I'll go change the bathroom! You say, which bathroom is the most popular?"
"Well..." Li Xiaogui was a little embarrassed, she was a little worried about the girls in the bathroom who were about to be targeted, "then can you be quiet? You scared them a bit. In this way, the new bathroom will become like this again. No. Everyone dare not come."
Mirror Ghost: "Huh?" It froze for a moment, then, "I'll try... Hmph, I didn't mean to. Who would have thought that some people would just hit my magnetic field! I'm also very annoying. Well, some people see some people can't, who would like to be seen screaming!"
Li Xiaogui: "Why do you like to watch girls make up?"
The mirror ghost said excitedly: "Of course it's cute! Girls, as long as you put on lipstick, it will become bright and shiny! I haven't put on makeup for a long time, and since I died, I can't help it. Doing such a thing! I can't watch it before!"
Li Xiaogui: "Do you want to do this? Is this your obsession?"
Mirror Ghost: "Of course not! It's just a hobby! A hobby!"
Li Xiaogui: "Then what is your obsession?" She thought about it, looked around, and asked tentatively, "Is it the school?"
Jing Gui shook his head decisively, "No. My obsession is to live, not to die! I stay in school because... She... Someone wants me to study hard... Someone, I really want to. I'm at school."
Li Xiaogui: "If you want to live, do you want to die? I have a less painful way to die. It's not that kind of rough seal."
Jing Gui raised his head and looked defensive: "What nonsense are you talking about! If I want to die, I'll just die when I die, why should I turn into a ghost and stay in the world! It's because I'm not reconciled! "
Jing Gui said: "I-I don't want to die yet, I'm still so young, I was only twenty years old when I died, I-I just passed the interview, don't you know, even if my face is very bad now, I can see it , I was beautiful when I was alive! A scout just signed me, the contract has been signed, and I have also passed an interview for a role, although it is an online drama, but it is the heroine, if it is on the screen, I will definitely be red!"
The mirror ghost rambled and said:
"At that time, the whole world will know me! Everyone will see me on TV, scream my name at me, and ask for my autograph! My name will spread all over the streets and everyone will know me! They will all come to me! I have a pretty face! Can you see that?"
To be honest, after a person becomes a ghost, his face is uniformly blue and white, and the eye area is a huge hole that cannot be filled, without brilliance and not good-looking. The mirror ghost is like this now, let alone hidden in the debris, showing his teeth and claws, except for making people feel terrified and fearful, there is nothing else.
"...Mingming, it's getting better soon, who would be willing to die like that!" Jing Gui said in pieces.
"But. You are already dead. Your time has stopped. If what you desire is to live, you should be reincarnated." Li Xiaogui said sharply.
Mirror Ghost looked at her grandly, but his eyes became paranoid: "No, I haven't. I'm not dead."
The ghost who just said that he was dead, now paranoid and stubbornly said, "I don't, as long as I stay here, I'm not really dead!"
Mirror Ghost: "If, if reincarnated... reincarnated, it's not me. It's not me who's alive... it's not me... Do you understand?"
Li Xiaogui looked at it and nodded, sighed, and stopped persuading.
She was not the type who strictly wanted to reincarnate ghosts. She would care about their thoughts. If she saw ghosts, she thought of sending each ghost to life, then she would be alone.
She grew up with ghosts.
The most important piece of her vitality is them.
"Then you can't get out of control. If you get out of control, I will seal you out. You have to be sensible all the time, and don't let obsessions erode all your thoughts, otherwise, once obsessions erode and get out of control, then you will also If it's not you, I will seal you back then, you understand?"
Hearing that the Sealing Mirror Ghost was not angry, he was surprised by Li Xiaogui's simple abandonment of entanglement. He was stunned for a few seconds before nodding, "Yeah."
Li Xiaogui looked at the mirror and nodded. He didn't look angry because of her words and she smiled in relief, "You just said that you stayed at school because someone wanted you to study?"
Mirror Ghost nodded, maybe it's been a long time since she hadn't found someone to chat with, and when she said it, it was like turning on the water from the tap, and she said, "Yes, yes! She has always, always wanted me to read! She wants us to go. , she, she likes school very much... But, my heart is not in school, I want to go outside, I want to go inside the TV, let the whole world see... "
"You..." Jing Gui paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "You are also an orphan... If you were raised by ghosts... it was because you didn't have parents... that you were adopted by ghosts... right? ?"
Li Xiaogui: "..."
Speaking of her suddenly, Li Xiaogui was also a little caught off guard, Jing Gui suddenly panicked when he saw her expression, "Well, that, in fact, I'm actually an orphan too! Me, my friends and I grew up in the garbage dump. It is difficult, difficult to grow up... I, I have always wanted to find my parents, I was not abandoned, I was abducted and sold, they must be panicked, maybe they are still looking for me! Have you seen Those movies? Take pictures, look for one city by one, it's pitiful! So I think... And I'm so good-looking, my parents must be beautiful... Maybe rich, you You know, beautiful people have money! Then the family will be big and warm, and I will live happily! Live well! Then I will take her and my friends in together!"
After thinking about it, Jing Gui smiled happily, "You were adopted, so you are too? Have you ever thought about finding your parents?"
Li Xiaogui said, "Actually, I haven't seriously thought about that."
The mirror ghost's expression froze.
Li Xiaogui thought about it for a while and continued: "Well, sometimes I think that I wasn't born to a ghost father or a ghost mother - although I always forget about it... I seem to be about four years old? Or five years old. At that time, I realized that I was not the same as them. At that time, it felt like the sky was falling and I kept crying. But when my parents said that I was still their baby, I was better!"
Li Xiaogui smiled: "At that time, I didn't think about my biological parents or anything. I was afraid that my parents, my grandparents, and my grandparents would not want me, so I kept crying. But once I knew it wouldn't work, it didn't matter!"
"Now that I've grown up..." She closed her eyes, as if she had been brought up now, so she began to think seriously. After thinking for ten seconds, she said earnestly word by word: "I'm not the same as you. I am When I was a baby, I was thrown at the door of an uninhabited house. So, my parents actually wanted me to die, so I didn't actually want to go to them. "
She opened her eyes and said, "Ah, I just heard that you kept looking for the photos, I imagined it a little and felt a little touched. I also tried to think about the situation. If it is like that... What should I do? I will listen carefully to their explanations, it is best to bring a younger brother or sister over with me, and then I will comfort them and tell them that I forgive them. Then I will play with them and visit them occasionally to reassure them I'm doing very well."
Mirror Ghost listened carefully, as if caught in the scene she set.
"That's about it. My biological parents would say I'm good, good, strange and careful, and of course I will. But I'm not going to live there because I'm nineteen and I'll find them when I find them. Or it will be bigger, they have other people to take care of, they are used to living without me, and I have my own life, everyone has grown up. We will keep in touch, but not live together.”
"I will go home quietly, because I can't imagine a day when I won't see my grandpa reading the newspaper, my grandma knitting a sweater and arranging flowers, my brother cooking with me, my mother sleeping late at home, and my father watching TV with me. La!"
After imagining it, she said soberly: "However, that kind of situation shouldn't happen! To be honest, although it's a bit selfish, I actually think it would be better if it didn't happen..."
The mirror ghost was stunned by the picture she painted: "But, don't you think it's better to be with people than ghosts? After all, you are different from them. The living and the dead are It's different, you know, dead people are clocks with no batteries, living people are hourglasses... you..."
Li Xiaogui shook his head and said, "I know, it's so good, they stop there, and I'll never see them leave before me. Every time I hear someone discussing that my parents' hair has turned white again. What, I can't help but be very happy!"
Her expression was innocent and light-like devotion: "Speaking of which, I have already thought about what the future will be like, do you want to listen to it? I have thought about it for a long time, but I may have to update it recently. I didn't think about it... Maybe one more person... "
she mumbled.
The mirror ghost nodded, so Li Xiaogui told it the scene in her dream. In dreams, there are shadows, rocking chairs, flowers, and gray hair...
It listened and listened, followed her words and imagined it, with a longing and gentle expression.
Li Xiaogui: "By the way, do you want me to help you find things about your parents?"
Jing Gui was stunned for a while, and after listening to Li Xiaogui's words, it couldn't help but have fantasies about people and ghosts, but it couldn't help being a little hesitant and timid, and it finally shook its head. It's too hard to find.
And the human ghost that Li Xiaogui just described feels so good, it is afraid of being compared, afraid that after finding it, it will not be as beautiful as what he said.
Li Xiaogui: "Then do you have someone you want to meet? That friend of yours? In fact, with someone important, it will be easier to hold on and not get out of control."
Mirror Ghost hesitated, it thought of a person, hesitantly said: "...Yes."
Li Xiaogui: "That's great! Do you know where she is? Do you want me to help you?"
Mirror Ghost hesitated: "I know, but... but... I'm afraid. I don't dare."
Li Xiaogui: "What are you afraid of? We can look at her from a distance, but she can't see you."
Mirror Ghost: "I'm just afraid! I won't go! I won't go! I dare not go!"
Jing Gui angrily looked at Li Xiaogui Guangcai Liuli's pupils, but his expression clearly said he wanted to go.
Li Xiaogui coaxed it softly: "Don't be afraid, I'll accompany you! Two people, you won't be so afraid! If you tremble, I can hold your hand, hold you, and recharge your courage at any time. Oh."
Li Xiaogui stretched out her hand, Shen Chen's wide sleeves just fit into the palm of her hand, and even grew a lot, falling down, she said softly, "I have a way, even if it is a ghost, you can hold it. Hug! The test is effective, do you want to try it
Xia Xia. "
The mirror ghost looked at the bubbles in the sun, as if bewitched, stretched out his hand, his pale and withered fingers poured out of the broken mirror and spread out little by little.
Then came the black shadow, with pale ankles, slowly stepping on the floor tiles, like a creature in a gloomy sewer that has never seen light before, instinctively creeping towards the light.
The hand passed through the light and clung to the thin cloth, and then was clenched.
"That's fine then." Li Xiaogui said.
