Chapter 2001 Slowness
But
No.
The boy didn't find Xiao Yi.
After school, the boy searched the school again.
He also found the way from school to the station several times.
He also walked back and forth several times on the bus.
After getting off the bus, the young man looked a little confused.
The sun shines on the face.
Even the afterglow of the setting sun made him slightly dazzling and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The young man took a deep breath.
We walked all the way from the station to our door.
He stood at the door of his house.
Didn't take the key to open the door.
There was even a hint of despair in my heart.
He couldn't find Xiaoyi
What should he do if he never finds Xiao Yi?
He suddenly remembered the early days when he was alienated or even ostracized by his classmates because the "identity" of the teacher's child was exposed.
At that time, he didn't seem to care.
But every time he was alone, the uncomfortable feeling was like maggots attached to the bones, which could not be driven away.
He told himself again and again that it didn't matter.
It's not his fault.
Even though there were times when he almost cried in pain.
He devoted all his energy to studying.
After class, I am either doing homework or reading.
He began to hate gym class.
I especially hate group activities.
Because no one wants to team up with him.
Although because of the number of people, he will not really be alone.
But the feeling of being rejected and having no choice but to form a team with him is really bad.
He doesn't like it.
He's annoying.
But it’s different with Xiao Yi.
No one talks to him, he can talk to Xiao Yi.
Because of Xiao Yi, he was happy to be alone.
This way, no one will look at him strangely because of his uncontrolled expression and careless words.
The door was opened from the inside.
The young man was startled.
There was even a bit of horror on his face.
The woman who opened the door also showed a frightened expression.
".Xiaoyi?!"
The two looked at each other silently for a while, and then the woman screamed.
"Why didn't you open the door when you came back?"
Because she and the child's father had irregular get off work hours, they gave the child the keys to their home when he was still in elementary school.
Seeing that the child was still in shock, the woman slowed down her tone and said, "Is this scary?"
"Who asked you to stand in a daze at the door?"
"Come first."
"Why is it so late today?"
The woman reached out and helped the child take off the schoolbag from behind.
He frowned, "Look at you, your head is full of sweat."
"Looking for something again?"
The woman thought of finding the boy at the station yesterday.
"You went to school so early today just to look for something, right?"
The woman said clearly.
"Is it something important?"
The young man slowly took off his shoes and slowly put on his slippers.
He didn't know how to answer this question.
Say no.
He has shown this.
Who is not is really unconvincing.
But if he said yes, how would he answer his mother's next question?
How was he going to explain Xiao Yi's existence?
Make up a lie?
His mind is now filled with the missing Xiao Yi and the fear of whether he can find Xiao Yi.
There are many miscellaneous associations.
He didn't have the extra energy to concoct a lie that could get away with it.
In the end, the boy just remained silent.
The woman sighed slightly.
There was a bit of worry between his eyebrows.
But she didn't say anything about it.
She didn't want to push the child.
Moreover, the more a child in adolescence is forced, the more violently he will rebound.
She patted the child on the shoulder and said, "Go back to the room and rest for a while."
“We can eat soon.”
The woman's thoughtfulness made the boy feel slightly relieved.
A feeling of gratitude arose in his heart.
In order not to come home late and make parents worry. Also in order to have more time to find primary school students
The boy asked for leave from the teacher. The next few days are basically exam paper explanations.
His grades are very good.
This time, the test results were as always first in the class and first in the grade.
The teacher agreed to his request for leave without hesitation.
Didn't even ask why.
Zhao Yihuan is a typical good student.
He has excellent grades and is responsible as a monitor.
Calm temperament.
He is a student that makes people want to describe him as perfect.
He had never asked for leave before.
There was never a single late arrival or early departure.
If you want to take leave this time, there must be a reason why you have to take leave.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he looks bad these days and is easily distracted?
The teacher smiled gently and said, "I hope you will be refreshed when you come back."
"High school has just begun."
"Your grades are very good, but you can't relax because of it."
The young man nodded seriously, "Yes."
"I know."
"Thank you, teacher."
The boy began to spend the whole day looking for Xiao Yi.
He is no longer limited to walking from home to school.
He expanded his search.
At the dinner table, the woman looked at the boy worriedly, "Xiao Yi, is it hard to study during this time?"
"Why do you look so bad?"
"Still didn't sleep well at night?"
The man also frowned, "How come you have dark circles under your eyes at such a young age?"
The young man touched his face and asked, "Are you there?"
"Any more?"
The woman filled a bowl of soup and handed it to the boy, "My face is so pale."
The boy took the soup bowl.
"It's okay."
He shook his head.
Then he picked up the soup bowl and drank the soup.
Seeing this, the woman and the man said nothing more.
But in my heart, I was planning to cook more nutritious dishes for my children.
The boy's parents' concern made him feel a little guilty.
He hasn't been to class for several days.
But
The young man clenched his fists.
There was a bit of stubbornness on his face.
He will definitely find Xiao Yi!
"But I never found Xiao Yi"
The young man lowered his head.
The hands on his knees were clenched into fists.
“I can’t find it no matter how hard I look.”
"Where did Xiaoyi go..."
There was a hint of choking in the young man's voice.
It was the first time that he told someone about his suffering and fear during this period, and the young man couldn't control his emotions.
He pursed his lips.
Open your eyes hard.
But there was still a drop of burning heat falling on the back of his hand.
He winced slightly because of the heat.
"Did you find that you were missing when you came home from school?"
Xiao Xiao murmured.
"Yeah."
The boy's voice had a nasal sound.
"You are too slow."
Meng Jixi couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
Although the boy looks very pitiful.
But
“I don’t know how long it took for you to find it after it was lost?”
Why not just wait ten days and a half before finding out?
That way you don’t even have to look for it.
The boy clenched his fists on his knees more and more.
He was also very upset about this.
I regret it even more.
yes.
Why didn't he realize that Xiao Yi was missing earlier?
Why didn't he find out earlier?
Regret and annoyance gnawed at the young man's heart.
