Before I knew it, the weather was no longer as hot as it was in midsummer, and the cool breeze blew through the thin layer of clothing.
Liu Xiao looked at the sunset that was no longer dazzling in the gaps between the tall buildings, but couldn't find any difference between it and his memory.
It's like a dream.
Within a month, it was like waking up from a dream.
The scenes in the dream are getting further and further away.
If it continues, the longer it goes, the more it will resemble a dream, and the content of the dream will gradually be forgotten.
But the strange feeling every time I look in the mirror has not disappeared.
That handsome face reminds me all the time - this is not me, I don't belong here.
"Liu Xiao?"
Yuefei's voice brought him back to his senses.
Turning her head to look over, she saw a blue-green spot in her field of vision that overlapped with Yue Fei's face, making her face look unusually white.
Liu Xiao pinched her eyebrows and said nothing.
"If you are in a bad mood or have any unhappy feelings, you can talk to me."
"I……"
Liu Xiao wanted to say that she was fine, but she changed her words to "ok".
Su Gu's big eyes rolled around, looking at Liu Xiao and Yue Fei.
"Ha! If I catch you, I will tell you that there is something wrong with you two, Xiaohui, come here, Xiaohui, why are you so far away? Wait for me!"
Hui Heng was relatively shy and consciously did not approach. This made Su Gu a little dissatisfied, and the thing that hit his mouth ran away.
Watching Hui Heng receive a punch, Liu Xiao felt that the relationship between the two was very interesting.
"What are your plans for tomorrow?"
"Sleep at home."
I stayed up late the night before, fought yesterday and today, used the divinity many times, and my mental and physical strength have been exhausted, so I need a good rest.
"Then you have a good rest and I'll see you the day after tomorrow."
"See you the day after tomorrow."
Liu Xiao waved goodbye at the intersection and crossed the road embedded with tram tracks to the opposite side.
The tram came around and Liu Xiao got on.
Waning Moon Calligraphy and Painting
At the door, Liu Xiao was opening the door, and her mind moved. She felt that there was someone next to her, but it was not dangerous, so she turned around and looked over.
It's Qin Jin.
She hid at the door of the store and stuck half of her head out.
"Xiao Jin?"
"Brother Liu Xiao, I heard from my mother that you came to see me this morning?"
As he spoke, he walked out with his whole body and came not far from Liu Xiao.
"It's rare that I have free time in the morning, so I go out for a walk, but then something suddenly happens and I go on a mission."
Liu Xiao opened the door and Qin Jin also followed in.
"On a mission? My mother said that the missions of the inspection team are all dangerous. This morning...this morning someone robbed a bank on Qingwa Street! I...I saw it on TV."
She widened her eyes and pretended to be scared, but she felt slightly relieved inside.
Brother Liu Xiao was handling a robbery in the morning, so he shouldn't be at the Burnase Hotel. It would be fine if he wasn't.
"Yes, but the robber has been subdued."
"Uniform? Isn't he dead?"
Liu Xiao was stunned for a moment. Is that what the official said? Didn't many people see Ding Da being taken into the car?
"He lost a lot of blood, but he's not dead yet."
Qin Jin was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He reached out to cover his mouth and bit his fingers, feeling a little panicked.
"Hui Wuyou said that person will die, am I talking too much..."
She bit her fingers and thought to herself, not daring to speak.
Fortunately, Liu Xiao opened the store door at this moment and walked into the store without noticing her.
Liu Xiao glanced at the first floor. Since there was no business and no one would be coming, the furnishings would not change much. Except for the place where he painted in the corner, it was a little messy.
Qin Jin's concerned voice came from behind him, with a cautious tone: "The work of the inspection team is too dangerous, Brother Liu Xiao, you have to be careful."
"Um……"
Liu Xiao's voice sounded absent-minded.
He has been like this since he had some free time this afternoon.
Both physical and mental exhaustion made him feel that his future was endless.
A month has passed and nothing has progressed.
He didn't know how he got here, let alone how to get back. The affairs of the inspection team were all unanswered.
"Brother Liu Xiao, please wait for me."
Qin Jin ran out and came back with a gorgeous small box in his hand, as big as a palm. When he opened it, nine exquisite spherical pastries were placed in the black nine-square grid.
It's a bit like glutinous rice balls, but they come in nine different colors. They are pink and glutinous, making them especially cute.
"This is our country's traditional pastry, called Nine Color Tuan. It's delicious. Try it."
As he spoke, he took out a silver-white metal fork from the lid and poked a red dumpling before sending it to Liu Xiao.
Liu Xiao didn't like sweet food, but she couldn't resist her kindness, so she took it and put it in her mouth.
It is slightly sour in the mouth, and a refreshing fragrance spreads out. When you bite your teeth, it is soft and waxy, fragrant and sweet.
Not cloyingly sweet.
It didn't stick to my teeth either.
Everything is just right.
Liu Xiao's first thought was that this snack should not be cheap. Whether it was the gorgeous packaging box or the metal fork, this was clearly illustrated.
"Is it tasty?"
"Well, it's not sweet and tastes just right."
The highest rating for desserts, not sweet.
Qin Jin smiled happily: "I have something to do this morning, but I will be free tomorrow. Brother Liu Xiao, are you going to have a rest tomorrow?"
"Yes."
Liu Xiao's mind was spinning, and she considered using tomorrow's time to find an opportunity to investigate Qin Jin. It would be best to have physical contact and check the history.
Qin Jin's eyes were shining, but she didn't mention it directly, but said: "You should have a good rest tomorrow morning, or in the afternoon...or evening, can I take you out for a walk?"
"Ah? Lead me?"
"Yes, you have lost your memory. You should be unfamiliar with Jinluo. I will take you out to play."
Oh yes, there is also this thing.
Liu Xiao thought for a moment: "Tomorrow morning."
"morning?"
"Yes, at nine o'clock in the morning, I will wait for you here and follow your arrangements tomorrow."
Qin Jin was delighted, with happiness written all over his face.
"Okay, Brother Liu Xiao, I won't disturb your rest. I'll leave this for you to eat."
After saying that, he skipped away.
Liu Xiao raised her eyebrows and poked another dumpling with her fork.
The picture flashed in the field of vision, and it was a pair of hands, delivering the brocade box to Qin Jin's hand.
It turned out to be a gift from someone else.
Liu Xiao didn't look much at it.
If it has nothing to do with extraordinary things, don't pry into other people's privacy.
Putting the dumpling into his mouth, he put down his fork and stood up, closing the door.
Liu Xiao no longer cares about doing business.
Just let it happen.
Whenever I no longer want to sell anything, I clean up the first floor and use it as a studio exclusively for painting.
Thinking of painting.
Liu Xiao walked to the corner, where there was an unfolded easel. There was a lot of dry paint on the edge of the easel, which looked dirty.
This was the night when I gained my divinity for the first time. In the blur of consciousness, I painted randomly on the canvas and stained it on the drawing board.
That painting should be in the temple now.
Didn't come back.
I don’t know if it has become an extraordinary item.
I picked up another piece of paper and pasted it on the drawing board, selected some paints from the shelf, took a portion of each and started mixing colors.
As the brush is stained with paint and smeared on the paper, irregular color blocks are piled up, and a low-pixel landscape appears on the white paper.
Liu Xiao did not outline the scenery in detail, but instead placed the brush on the center of the painting.
There was an aqua blue patch in the middle, like a human figure, wearing a long skirt and long black hair.
At this point in the painting, Liu Xiao suddenly stopped.
He realized what he was drawing.
Who are you drawing?
He did not continue, but threw away the brush, turned around and left, went upstairs to take a shower and went to sleep.
Some thoughts are like extravagant wishes.
Extravagant thoughts should not exist in the first place.
Since it is elusive but elusive.
It's better to cut it off as early as possible.
…
Early the next morning, Liu Xiao woke up early.
I looked at the time, it was only seven o'clock
The alarm clock hasn't gone off yet.
He set the alarm for eight o'clock.
After calculating the time, I went to bed early last night and slept for a full ten hours.
I got up, stood in front of the window, looked in the direction of Jinluo Academy of Fine Arts, and stretched. It was another refreshing day.
After washing up, I went out to buy breakfast.
A cup of soy milk and a cereal pastry.
The soy milk was brought by Su Gu yesterday. After tasting it, he thought it tasted good and even gave him a familiar feeling.
Cereal pastries are purely for filling the stomach.
In fact, Liu Xiao wanted to eat fried dough sticks and steamed buns more.
With the store door open, Liu Xiao squinted for a while, and didn't open her eyes again until there were slight footsteps entering the door.
It was Qin Jin who came, not a client.
It looks like she has been dressed up carefully. Although she is obviously still bare-faced, her hair and clothes are carefully chosen.
The hair on both sides was braided back into two small braids and fixed on more loose long hair. Paired with a light pink dress, it looked a bit sweet.
Hmm...this feels a bit like Su Gu.
"Brother Liu Xiao, good morning."
"Good morning Xiaojin."
"If you're sleepy, we can go out later."
"I'm just going back to sleep."
"what is that?"
"When I wake up and go back to sleep, I don't necessarily feel sleepy, but I feel very comfortable."
"Very comfortable? Why do you still want to sleep when you're not sleepy?"
Liu Xiao didn't know how to explain it. After thinking for a moment, he said:
"Just like a pet, when it wakes up in the morning and has nothing to do, it goes back to its cage and sleeps again. In its view, the cage is not a place to restrict itself, but a safe and stable home.
You can go wherever you want, isn't that comfortable?"
"It does sound very comfortable, shall I join?"
"ah?"
Qin Jin walked around the first floor and found only two stools and no chairs. The only chair was the one Liu Xiao was sitting on.
"Why don't we forget it and let's go."
Liu Xiao made a gesture to get up, but Qin Jin stretched out his hand to stop him.
"No, I also want to go back to sleep."
"There is it upstairs."
Qin Jin went upstairs to bring a chair and put it next to Liu Xiao, then he followed Liu Xiao's example and lay down, and even really closed his eyes.
Liu Xiao opened her eyes.
It feels weird.
Qin Jin's character may have changed more than he imagined.
We must find out the reason, or in other words, try to ensure her safety in extraordinary events.
This can be regarded as repaying the favor of a meal.
"Brother Liu Xiao."
"Um?"
"Do I have to fall asleep when I go back to the cage?"
