fight to the death

Yu Shen disappeared for almost a week.

No one in the class mentioned him, except that Lao Deng had asked Jiang Huai before, and he never said anything about Yu Shen after that.At present, all Jianghuai knows is that Yu Shen's family is seriously ill, and it is lung cancer.As for other content about Yu Shen, Jianghuai didn't know anything about it.

"This midterm exam has reflected the problems of most of the students..." Lao Deng held a lot of test papers in his hand, randomly took out two of them, and paced back and forth on the podium , he tapped on it with his finger, "The polarization is very serious. Those who do well in the exam are very good, and those who do poorly in the exam will fall to the bottom."

The students in the audience responded perfunctorily, and Jiang Huai sat on his seat and turned his head to look out the window, constantly turning a pen in his hand.In the past few days, the weather has become more and more obvious. Most of the people in the class have dug out the coats they put away for the summer. girl.

The broken fountain downstairs was already full of fallen leaves, and the students from the life department who were responsible for cleaning the land every day pouted and complained, the place just cleaned was filled with leaves again after a while.

Jiang Huai suddenly thought of Yu Shen, who often sang at the fountain, and heard from other people that every time Yu Shen wanted to sing, he would always clean up the place, which saved the life department a lot of trouble.

Bai Yang at the front desk went up to get the test paper and walked down with his head bowed. The next one was Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai raised his head in response and took the test paper handed over by Lao Deng. , Jianghuai and Wenjing in our class have full marks in Chinese..." While walking back to their seats, Bai Yang turned around and took Jianghuai's test paper, and looked at the scores written in red pen on it. , He lifted it up and compared it with his own, the difference in scores was too big, it was appalling, Bai Yang sighed, returned the test paper to Jianghuai, lay down on the table and moaned and complained that he would not even think about having dinner when he went home tonight.

With a piece of chalk in his hand, Lao Deng pushed his glasses, which had slid to the tip of his nose, and began to explain the composition questions this time.A bird flew out of the window, stopped on the window sill, tilted its head and blinked its small eyes, stared at Jiang Huai, then opened its mouth and called twice, flapped its wings, and flew out.

Jiang Huai's thoughts followed the bird and gradually flew away. He thought a lot, and the memories in his head appeared in front of him like a movie. He thought of his life in City B before, and how to separate from his parents. I even thought of the experience of being forced to wear a princess dress by the kindergarten teacher in kindergarten... Finally, those memories came to an abrupt end when I recalled Yu Shen.

Jiang Huai suddenly felt that he couldn't remember anything, as if there was a piece missing in his memory, he turned his head and looked at the empty table next to him, reached out and groped in Yu Shen's drawer a few times, and found out his half-term exam. That notebook from before.Jiang Huai turned a few pages, except for the first page which was filled with the key points mentioned by the teacher, the other few pages were full of irrelevant content.

"Did Lao Deng draw his eyebrows today? For sure! He didn't even have eyebrows before. Do you want to talk to Brother Gou... Forget it, seeing how serious he is, I'd better not bother him."

"Lin Mei's powder is too thick! When I met her this morning, I could see the powder falling off her face little by little."

"Brother hasn't eaten in the store for several days, the weather is so cold recently, it's time to put some clothes on him... Will this brat fight with the cats outside and ruin his face and dare not come back to see me! "

"The dog is so handsome, the dog is so handsome, the dog is so handsome, the dog is so handsome..."

Jiang Huai couldn't help laughing at the above content, and almost slapped the table and laughed when he saw some places. If it wasn't for class time, he probably would have done it a long time ago.When he turned to the next page, Jiang Huai almost dropped Yu Shen's notebook on the ground due to the content on it. Fortunately, he caught it in the air, otherwise the sound of the notebook falling on the ground would attract the attention of several people around him.

Yu Shen's notes ended on that page, and the rest were blank pages.Jiang Huai put the notebook back, and when he raised his head to look at Lao Deng who had finished speaking the composition questions, he felt his heart beating fast.

thump.thump.thump.

That page didn't write about the daily happenings, nor complained about the dullness of the school, but it was full of Jianghuai's name.

It's not the Gouge drawn by flaring teeth and claws, but Jianghuai who is well-behaved and stroked.

It seems that Yu Shen has never called him by his name, but sometimes he will call him Jiang Xueba. Suddenly, a strong desire arises in Jiang Huai's heart, and he wants Yu Shen to call his name once. Jiang Huai really wants to know. What kind of feeling does it feel when Shen calls out the word "Jianghuai".

At this moment, all the lost memories came back.

"Jiang Huai! Jiang Huai!" Jiang Huai came back to his senses, turned his head to look in the direction of the voice, and saw Zhang Bin throwing a ball of paper in his hand while Old Deng was turning around to write.

As expected, it hit Jiang Huai on the head.Jiang Huai bent down to pick up the ball of paper from the ground, and gave Zhang Bin a middle finger. Zhang Bin scratched his head and smiled, pointed at the ball of paper, and then turned back to sit upright and looked at Lao Deng. Old Deng turned around and saw that the students in the audience were so serious, and he was also very satisfied. Jiang Huai felt goosebumps all over his body under the approving gaze of Old Deng.

He unfolded the ball of paper, and the words on it were uglier than Yu Shen's.

Jiang Huai frowned in disgust.

- I heard that Yu Shen is a resident singer in the bar on the West Street, do you want to see it?

Jiang Huai raised his eyes to stare at the back of Zhang Bin's head, propped his chin with one hand and crumpled the paper into a ball again with the other, then gently threw it backwards and fell into the trash can behind him.

The sky was getting dark, and tonight there was a half moon in the sky. The newly opened bar across the road had been open for half an hour, and the street lamps on the side of the road had already been lit. It is endless darkness.Jiang Huai glanced at Zhang Bin, who was next to him with a cigarette in his mouth, and twitched the corner of his mouth. Passers-by looked at the two teenagers squatting on the side of the road strangely. Jiang Huai raised his head and met the passerby's eyes.

"We..." When Zhang Bin took out the fourth cigarette, Jiang Huai was stared awkwardly by passers-by, and couldn't help but said, "How long will we stay here? Don't you think, I Are they like two hundred and five?"

Zhang Bin stuffed back the cigarette he had just taken out, rubbed it too hard and accidentally cramped his leg, grinned and squatted down in embarrassment, rubbed his faintly painful leg, Jiang Huai He twitched the corner of his mouth again, stood up and took a deep breath.

"Actually, I was waiting for you to go in." Zhang Bin said shyly, "I dare not go in."

After Jiang Huai heard this, he didn't stand still and almost fell down. He glanced at Zhang Bin and was speechless for a while. How dare this kid pretend to be a gangster?

He took a step forward, stepped back and grabbed Zhang Bin. Zhang Bin was forced to jump across the road with one foot, and almost collided with a car head-on on the way.The driver's cursing gradually faded away, and standing in front of them was a transparent glass door with the word "Push" pasted on it, the lights inside were constantly flashing, and the group of people wriggling to the music in the center, Compared with the quiet outside, it is so abrupt, two worlds one mile and one outside.

Zhang Bin hesitantly opened the door, and the music that was separated from the outside was magnified several times in an instant, and the red, green, and yellow lights above his head were projected on Jiang Huai's face again and again. Jiang Huai only felt his head swell, Feeling dizzy, Zhang Bin next to him looks calm, but his legs are trembling.Right in front of the two of them, a woman with scantily dressed clothes, red lipstick and smoky makeup came towards her. She looked like the owner of this bar. She stopped in front of the two teenagers and looked up and down. After a while, he pointed to a sentence posted on the wall, which read "Minors are not allowed to enter."

"Aunt... no, sister, we are here to find someone." Because the music was too loud, Jiang Huai had no choice but to yell, "I found it and left immediately."

Zhang Bin nodded in agreement.

"You are so young, who can I find?" The boss lit a cigarette, leaned against the edge of the bar and asked casually, "This is not the place you should come to, children, you should leave quickly."

As he spoke, he made a "please" gesture.

Jiang Huai stood still, frowning slightly, and said, "We are really looking for someone, and besides, we are not children anymore."

"Oh?" The boss smiled after hearing this, put his fingertips lightly on his bright red lips, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the bar, lit it and handed it to Jiang Huai, "If not, then you can smoke Right? Handsome guy?"

Jiang Huai stared at the sparking cigarette with an expression of a sun-dried dog. Anyone who knew him, Brother Huai, knew that although Brother Huai didn't smoke or drink, his fighting skills were still among the top six.The boss looked up at him with interest, shook his hand holding the cigarette, and continued: "Hold it, I'm tired of lifting my hand."

Zhang Bin looked at Jiang Huai without blinking his eyes. Jiang Huai took the cigarette handed over by the boss, put it in his mouth and took a puff.

"Cough cough!" Jiang Huai coughed for a long time due to choking, and quickly spit out the smoke in his mouth and stamped it out with his feet. He held his chest and didn't recover for a while. There was an indescribable smell, and the boss couldn't help laughing when he saw Jiang Huai's expression.

"Okay, I'm teasing you." She said, she turned and walked in, and before leaving, she told Jiang Huai a few words, "Find someone quickly, don't provoke people who shouldn't be provoked, people here are better than others." The chaos you imagine."

Jiang Huai looked at the back of the boss leaving until he could no longer see him.Someone patted his shoulder, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Bin, and then walked to the place with the most people.

This bar is not very big, and it is newly opened, but for some reason, it attracts a lot of young people. There are other bars on West Street, but the popularity is far less than this one.The men and women who are constantly twisting with the music, in Jiang Huai’s eyes, they are a group of people dancing wildly, not as good as the aunt in the square. He closed his eyes and told himself not to look at this place with normal eyes. After a while, he got used to it. It's just that when he saw a man and a woman kissing intimately on the sofa, Jiang Huai only felt a churn in his stomach, an indescribable discomfort.

Right in front of the group of people was a raised stage, there was no one on it at the moment, only a few speakers were played, the music switched one after another, Jiang Huai walked around without seeing Yu Shen Just when Zhang Bin began to doubt whether his news was wrong, the disturbing music finally stopped, and the others sat on the chairs, ordered a cocktail or other drink, and carefully shook the glass. Taste it.

The music became softer, and several people removed the redundant speakers, leaving only two left and one right. The lights of the whole venue were dimmed, and the only bright light was the one on the stage. The white light is so bright that even the bright Jianghuai can see the flying dust in it.

"I heard that there is a new resident singer? It seems to be a high school student?"

"Where are you new here? You've been here for more than half a month. He's a high school student. He looks really good."

"A lot of people came here for him. Today I must get his WeChat."

"..."

Several girls sitting next to Jiang Huai lowered their heads and discussed with each other. At this moment, a person carrying a guitar walked up from the stage, and Jiang Huai recognized it at a glance. It was Yu Shen.He faced the people in the audience and sat on the chair in the middle of the stage. His posture was exactly the same as that in the art performance before. He was wearing a clean white shirt and a pair of simple jeans, with the guitar on his lap, and the lights shrouded Yu Shen The whole person, the shadow covered Yu Shen's eyes, Jiang Huai couldn't see Yu Shen's expression now, and didn't know if Yu Shen saw him.

He plucked the strings a few times, and there were one or two screams from the audience. Yu Shen looked up, then lowered his head and continued playing. After a while, he stopped, leaned forward, and held the piano in front of him. Microphone, lips pursed, the clear voice spread through the microphone throughout the bar, hovering over everyone's head, and sometimes it seemed to be whispering in the ear, which was intoxicating.The audience silently watched Yu Shen on the stage, no one spoke, and some even pursed their lips to echo quietly, Jiang Huai couldn't help but stare dumbfounded.

What kind of feeling is that?

He has heard Yu Shen sing, but it only exists when Yu Shen roars at the fountain. Compared with the present, the flamboyant and unrestrained appearance is like two people.

At the end of the song, Yu Shen slowly raised his head to look at the audience, and there was thunderous applause instantly. He stood up and smiled, then stared blankly at the dark place below the audience.

There seemed to be a very familiar person there, the only reason was that the place was so dark that Yu Shen couldn't see clearly at all.

Jiang Huai felt something, when Yu Shen looked up, he was looking at this side, he stood up, stared at Yu Shen on the stage, until Yu Shen turned his head, and then stepped off the stage.

At this second, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

He suddenly felt that he was very close to Yu Shen.

And far, far away.
