Chapter 2020 Small Bamboo Forest
"Xiaoyi...found it?"
This was something he had thought about countless times.
In the past few days, he took out his mobile phone to look at it from time to time.
Staring at the phone screen in a daze.
Numerous fantasy phone calls.
Then Master Xiao’s voice came
That's what he heard just now.
Exactly the same.
Xiao Yi found it.
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao's determined tone finally made the young man's heart return to its true state.
"We found Xiao Yi."
The moment these words hit his ears, the corners of the young man's eyes turned red for some reason.
The hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
He took a deep breath.
"Master Xiao, we found Xiao Yi..."
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao said tirelessly, "We found Xiao Yi."
"...so good..."
The young man murmured.
"Great!"
The boy shouted loudly.
It attracted students and passers-by nearby to look over.
Some students who knew the boy looked strange.
In their impression, the young man was silent and somewhat indifferent.
But the results are good.
He is also very capable as a monitor.
They had never seen the boy show such emotion.
Rather, they never thought that the boy would shout out like this.
There was a smile in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
Are you finally relieved?
"Master Xiao, have you found Xiao Yi?!"
"Where is Xiaoyi?"
"Is it okay?"
"Is it hurt?"
"It..."
The silence and silence before seemed like an illusion.
The young man looked excited and spoke quickly.
In his excitement, he unconsciously spun around in circles.
Eyes raised.
He was so happy.
Xiaoyi found it!
Really found it!
……
"These are questions you can ask yourself."
Xiao Xiao's words made the young man even more excited.
"Where?"
"Master Xiao, where are you?"
"I'm coming to find you now!"
"I'd better come over."
Xiao Xiao was worried that in this state of the young man, something might happen easily.
"Is there a park near your home?"
"Yeah."
The young man nodded.
My heart moved.
Sure enough-
"Let's make an appointment to meet in the park."
"You go and take the bus now."
"Be careful."
"When walking, pay attention to the front and sides."
Although Xiao Xiao walked the road from the juvenile school to the bus station last time, he knew that this section of the road was just a few minutes' walk away from the school gate and turning left.
No need to cross the street.
However, the young man still needs to be reminded.
The young man has a "criminal record".
"I know."
The boy was a little embarrassed.
He is no longer a child.
What happened before...
He is also not easy to defend.
It was indeed his negligence.
But he won't make the same mistake again.
……
Xiao Xiao put away his phone.
He lowered his eyes, a faint smile appeared on his face, "Let's go."
"You will be returned to your original owner soon."
Just...
"Returning the jade to Zhao intact" is beyond words.
I hope that when the boy sees Xiaoyi, he won’t feel too distressed.
……
"I'm out."
Xiao Xiao said hello and walked out of the dormitory.
When he reached the school gate, the car he ordered slowly stopped.
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows are slightly curved.
The time is just right.
……
Xiao Xiao got out of the car.
Looking up, he saw the young man running towards the entrance of the park.
The boy also saw him.
"Master Xiao!"
The boy yelled.
The pace of his steps quickened a little more. The schoolbag on my back hit my back, making a "pop" sound.
……
"Be careful."
Xiao Xiao took the young man's arm and pulled him a little to the side.
A bicycle speeds by.
"Thank you."
After thanking him, the young man realized something was wrong.
Why?
When did Master Xiao come to his side?
Weren't you at the park gate just now?
But these doubts were quickly overshadowed by the joy of seeing Xiao Yi.
"Xiaoyi!"
The young man saw the monster on Master Xiao's wrist at a glance.
The eyes that suddenly opened wide were filled with bright light.
"Xiaoyi!"
It’s really Xiaoyi!
The young man was surprised and happy.
The corners of his eyes felt vaguely hot.
"Xiaoyi, where have you been?"
The young man seemed to be complaining.
But there was a cheerful smile in his voice.
"I've been looking for you for a long time."
The young man stretched out his hand.
The vines stretched and wrapped around the boy's wrist.
Then, the branches on Xiao Xiao's arms faded.
Xiaoyi arrived on the boy's body.
……
The boy raised his arms.
The gloom between his eyebrows and eyes for many days was swept away.
The whole face was shining with too vivid joy.
"Xiaoyi-"
Xiao Xiao stopped the young man's next words.
"Let's talk somewhere else."
"Huh?"
The young man was stunned.
Then he nodded hurriedly, "Okay."
He also noticed the non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians passing by.
After all, it is the peak period when students are out of school and people are getting off work.
……
"Follow me."
The young man understood Master Xiao's intention to change places, and he took Master Xiao to a secret base he discovered when he was a child.
A bamboo forest.
It’s not another larger bamboo forest outside the park that everyone knows
It is a small bamboo forest in a more remote location where few people come.
For a while, he always came to this bamboo forest alone.
It's for homework.
Observe and record the shape and growth process of bamboo.
……
"This is it."
After wandering around the park for a long time, the boy started to get anxious.
The small bamboo forest in his memory finally appeared in front of him, and the young man breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the last time he came to this bamboo forest was during his summer vacation after graduating from elementary school.
He had not been here for several years, and he almost thought he would not be able to find this small bamboo forest.
fortunately.
He found it.
"Master Xiao, let's go and chat in the bamboo forest."
"Basically no one comes to this small bamboo forest."
"If you want to see bamboo, you will also go to the big bamboo forest that you just passed by."
……
"Okay."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
He found that the bamboo forest was also a highly "used" conversation location.
He has been to the bamboo forests in many parks.
Shaking his head in amusement, Xiao Xiao followed the young man into the bamboo forest.
……
"Xiaoyi..."
There was the sound of rustling bamboo leaves all around, and the young man finally felt at ease.
Looking at the monster on his wrist, he narrowed his eyes with a smile.
"...where have you been?"
After staring at Xiao Yi for a long time, the familiar touch on his arm that spread to his wrist finally made him feel something real.
The real feeling of returning as a primary school student.
He spoke slowly.
"Why did you disappear suddenly?"
"I'm sorry."
The boy suddenly apologized.
The smile on his face turned into guilt and regret.
"I'm too slow."
"I didn't realize you were missing the first time."
"If only I had found out earlier..."
"It's useless if you find it."
After hearing its words, the boy became more and more depressed, and Xiao Yi's body froze.
Xiao Xiao laughed.
"Xiao Yi means that you don't have to blame yourself."
After all, even if the boy discovered it at the first time, it would not help the outcome.
