Chapter 30 White Matter
Half a year has passed, the summer heat has passed and the winter has come.
The cold wind carried light rain, forcing every student to put on thick winter uniforms.
The first semester of senior high school has ended.
The students each held an umbrella and left the campus in a trot.
Luo Di was still the same, almost leaving the campus in a hurry. He didn't have the habit of carrying an umbrella. He just covered his head with the hood of his school uniform and was the last to leave the school while facing the gaze of the security guard.
It has been some time since I left school, but there was a familiar voice at the school gate that should have been clean,
“Luo Di, hello!”
Look up As I looked,
the squad leader, half of his face buried in his scarf, was standing at the curb waving frequently.
Seeing that Luo Di was still taking his time, she took the initiative to hold an umbrella over. The umbrella was just big enough to cover the two of them.
Luo Di whispered: "Isn't there a car to pick you up?"
"Uncle the driver asked for leave today because he had something to do at home, so I took a taxi back by myself. But, school ends one hour early today. So I can go home a little later.
My house seems to be on the same road as yours, so I might as well wait for you to go with me! I haven’t taken a bus for a long time, so I can try it out.”
“What a lady. The tone.”
"Hey~ at least I can let you say a few more words."
Half the people were missing in the bus in winter. Roddy was still sitting in the window seat at the end as usual, but this time he was It seems a bit crowded.
“Is your [Knife] okay?”
“It’s okay, you can occasionally hear the grinding of zombies’ teeth, but there’s nothing wrong with it during the monthly inspection by the Research Bureau. ”
“That’s good, the entrance exam will be in half a year. I can even imagine the surprise of all the students in the school when you showed this thing during the physical test. Maybe you can get it. No. 1 in the school.”
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can join the company normally, that's enough."
Luo Di stared out the window, seeming to remember something, but was quickly pulled back by a light elbow.
"Do you have any plans for the winter vacation? My family can probably give me three days of free arrangement. Do you want to organize everyone to go somewhere to have fun?"
"No." Luo Di He decisively refused. He had already arranged a thirty-day movie viewing plan and did not want to be disrupted.
"Hey~ if Xiao Gao called you, would you go? Recently I saw you two doing push-ups together every day, and you kept chatting on the way back to the classroom after dinner."
"I really don't want to go."
"Okay."
The sky seemed to be filled with chatter, and the entire back row became silent.
The squad leader also followed Luo Di's field of vision and looked out the window. Although he didn't know what to see, his heart gradually became quiet.
"The resettlement community No. 13 has arrived, and the car door will be closed in ten seconds."
"Let's go."
Rody squeezed past the squad leader's legs and skillfully circled the pole to get out of the car.
Somewhat strangely, when he got off the bus, Roddy had a feeling that he had never felt before. It seemed that such a perfunctory winter vacation farewell was not good.
So I looked back at the rear window of the bus, preparing to say a more formal goodbye to the monitor.
Unexpectedly, before the waving action started, he found that the squad leader who got off the car with him was standing behind him.
"What are you doing when you get out of the car?"
"Huh? Didn't you say before that I can go home later. Besides, you don't seem to have brought an umbrella, so I can take you back."
"You should go home first, I don't need an umbrella."
"No." Wu Wen also chose to refuse this time, with seriousness in her eyes.
“Downstairs only.”
"Okay!" The serious squad leader immediately returned to normal and walked in front with brisk steps.
The two of them had just walked not far from the resettlement community when they heard a burst of mourning and yellow paper floating over.
Looking forward,
downstairs from a residential building next to Luo Di’s house, someone was holding a funeral.
The two of them stopped chatting and passed by as quietly as possible.
It seemed that it happened not long ago, and all the relatives dressed in black at the scene burst into tears.
When passing by the mourning hall, Luo Di clasped his hands together and bowed his head in salute. The squad leader walking next to him also followed suit.
Just when the two of them lowered their heads together,
Hu~
A gust of cold wind blew by, and with the blessing of winter, it seemed to be able to penetrate into the skin and blow on the surface of the bones.
The coldness forced the two of them to speed up and walk through the funeral area. In front of them was a building in the deepest part of the resettlement community, where Luo Di lived.
The squad leader had no intention of pushing the envelope further and stopped.
The two of them stood under the umbrella together, with their arms touching each other.
The monitor reached out and pulled down the scarf in front of her, bringing her moist lips as close as possible, almost touching Roddy's. Ear, whisper:
"Hey~ did you see it just now? The portrait hanging in the mourning hall seems to be that of a young girl."
"I see, stop talking about trivial matters."
Ugh~ The squad leader quickly covered his mouth, but immediately whispered: "What should I do~ I'm a little scared, how about you take me back to the bus stop? "You should be braver than me, right?"
"Tsk~ I just want to talk to you more. After all, I can only stay with the tutor for the next month, which is really boring!
By the way, I have three days during the winter vacation, so I can Wouldn’t it like to come to your house and do homework together?”
"No."
"Hey...bye, see you next semester."
The monitor stopped insisting and pulled on the scarf again, and when he turned to leave, his eyes seemed to have lost some luster.
Not long after she left, an unclear voice came from behind,
“If you want to do your homework... you can make an appointment at a fast food restaurant not too far away. It’s not convenient at home. .”
"Okay."
The monitor just replied quietly without looking back.
On the way back to the bus stop alone, the monitor passed by the mourning hall door again, feeling even colder, as if something was urging her to leave.
And Luo Di has reached the top floor,
"Dad, Mom, sister, I am back."
"How did you do in the exam?" Father's voice came from the kitchen.
"Same as usual."
"Come and eat, I'll wait for you."
"I'm going to wash my hands."
Luo When Di went to the bathroom to wash his hands, he also looked outside through the window here. His eyes turned to the bus stop outside the resettlement community. After catching the familiar figure and the color of the umbrella, he turned and left.
Go back to the dinner table and sit with your family.
"Brother, we are going out for the holidays, are you going?"
"No."
"Great! Then the important task of guarding the house is It's up to you."
"I know, be careful on the road."
Luo Di likes living alone the most, and he has even begun to fantasize about the happiness of watching movies, lifting dumbbells, and eating homemade sesame seeds at the same time.
……
【New Year's Day】
There are still ten days left until the end of the winter vacation.
My family has already embarked on the journey yesterday. Roddy also officially started his happy solo time.
When he got up early in the morning, he was munching on steamed buns and cleaning the house, just when everything was done and he was about to do his homework.
Boom!
A series of heavy knocks on the door suddenly came.
Luo Di looked at the time on his bracelet [08:40], and the community went to work at nine o'clock, and would never work at this time. Click to find the door.
He looked outside the door through the peephole, but there was no one outside.
"Did you hear that wrong?"
Just when Rody turned around and left, he was about to go back to do his homework.
Boom!
There was another knock on the door,
Luo Di rushed back to the bedroom and took out the machete wrapped in the shroud under the bed.
There was still no one looking through the cat's eyes,
It was just that this time Roddy did not leave, but held the doorknob with one hand and waited quietly.
Boom!
When it rang for the third time, he opened the door suddenly and swung the blade wrapped in white cloth.
His movement stopped in mid-air, and he saw a female high school student squatting at the door, already making a surrender gesture.
"Luo Di, why don't you be so cautious... It scares me to death."
"Monitor!?"
Luo Di subconsciously pulled back the door to block the situation inside the room.
“Don’t worry~ I won’t go in without your permission.
Didn’t you say before that we could go to a fast food restaurant to do homework? I guess if I call you, you will definitely be ignored. I refused immediately, so I came directly.
Go? It doesn’t matter if you don’t go, I’ll just make an appointment with Anna. "
"Go, wait for me. ”
