The heavy rain hit the floral umbrella, causing water foam to streak down the edge of the umbrella. The cool air came from all directions and blew Lu Mingfei's sleeves. He could smell the city with every breath he took.

The strong smell of rain has not changed in decades, and the faint scent of shampoo from the girl next to me.

Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen were walking in the streets in the heavy rain. Behind them was the gate of Shilan Middle School that was getting further away. All kinds of luxury cars were crowded at the gate with their headlights on and their horns on. The noise of the crowd was washed away by the rain on the ground.

He paddled along the channel to a deeper place.

They turned their backs to the hustle and bustle and walked forward. Because of the heavy rain, their steps were not fast, so during the process, both of them had a lot of time to see the city and street scenes in the rain, and watch the water curtains passing by on the streets.

Car, look at the boy squatting in a daze under the eaves of the roadside with his schoolbag in hand.

"I'd like to trouble you to send it to me. The weather was fine this morning and I didn't pay attention to bringing an umbrella. I never thought it would rain so heavily in the afternoon." Lu Mingfei had a height advantage, so he held the floral umbrella and raised it over his shoulder.

It covers two people. Fortunately, both of them are not too big. They use one umbrella together and it is not so crowded that they are shoulder to shoulder. It is both a blessing and a regret.

Hearing what Lu Mingfei said, Chen Wenwen lowered her hands in front of her body and looked at the rainy street with crooked banyan trees in front of her and said, "Didn't you not go home at all last night? Didn't you quarrel with your family? How could you bring an umbrella with you?"

?”

"There are also cheap disposable umbrellas in Internet cafes. I just don't want to buy them." Lu Mingfei scratched his head and then remembered that he had lied so much. Sure enough, after telling the first lie, he would need countless lies to follow.

make up.

"What are you hiding from everyone?" Chen Wenwen gently turned her head and looked at the boy beside her. Sensing her gaze, the boy did not dare to turn his head to the side and only dared to look straight at the road in front. He walked as if he had wound up a clockwork.

It was as regular as a robot that would never deviate from the road. The limbs under the shirt were tight, revealing a sense of tension.

"I" Lu Mingfei wanted to defend something, but when he saw the girl's profile from the corner of his eye, something in his heart suddenly softened. He scratched his head with one hand and thought about something, and finally gave up on telling another lie, but

But he didn't say anything.

"It's a good thing to have your own affairs. I won't force you to ask. It will annoy people. We just want to help you. We are all classmates in the literary club. We can't meet each other without looking up.

Helping each other out before graduation is a good memory."

"Some things can't be helped just because you want to." Lu Mingfei sighed. She took the time to glance at Chen Wenwen's shoulders. This girl was still "digitized" in his eyes. There were several green characters on her shoulders.

The numerical values ​​are pitifully low, neither attack nor defense exceeds 60, but her agility is over 70. It seems that she was on the track and field team in elementary school and has no special abilities. She does not have an additional literary proficiency because of the president of the literary club.

, I want to play, play, sing, play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they are not within the scope of the cheat code.

At least even if Su Xiaoqiang said that he wanted to help him, he would still expect it. After all, there is such a big special ability there, but if Chen Wenwen said it, forget it. Will Jiji quickly run away to help him call the police for help?

He didn't really want to do anything like getting into the water.

"The literary club's micro-movie has been shot and is going to be shown to all the graduates at the graduation party." Chen Wenwen suddenly said.

"The relationship is so good. I couldn't understand when I was shooting that thing." Lu Mingfei picked up the topic that was handed to me naturally. It's like this kind of thing to talk about on the way home after the rain. It can be

It doesn't matter, the most important thing is to chat. If boys and girls are alone without a topic atmosphere, it will look a bit weird. There is only a thin line between embarrassment and ambiguity. Lu Mingfei is not sure it can be the latter, so he has to try his best.

Guarantee the former won't happen.

"At that time, before the movie is shown, someone from the literary club will need to go up and give a speech, one man and one woman."

"Ah? Oh, what do you mean?" Lu Mingfei was startled.

"The speech clip is not too long, but it has to be unscripted, so I have to memorize it in advance. I think you have done this kind of work in the literary club before, right? I hope that someone with more experience will complete this last literary club activity.

The curtain call." Chen Wenwen said.

"I have experience. I have always had experience. After all, I have done many things in the literary club." Lu Mingfei scratched his head.

"There are usually a lot of things for you to do, so I think the last opportunity to show your face should always be reserved for the person who worries the most, right?" Chen Wenwen nodded and expressed her true thoughts.

"No problem, no problem. Just message me privately about the lines of your speech. You will definitely not miss the mark." Lu Mingfei wanted to reassure her, but because she was holding an umbrella, her movements were too big and the rain would come in, so she gave up and replaced it with

A more ceremonial clenching of fists.

"Actually, to be honest, Mingfei, everyone is quite relieved to leave some matters in the literary club to you." Chen Wenwen said suddenly, "Although you may have some accidents sometimes, in the end no matter what, you will still take care of it.

Things get done, but the results are often somewhat unsatisfactory.”

"Really?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head.

"Remember that time of long-distance running? No boy in the class signed up for the 5,000-meter race, but you were the only one who signed up."

"Can you not mention that time? It was so embarrassing. I was so exhausted after the warm-up. In the end, you asked Lin Nian to win the award. I am the only one who won the participation award." Lu Mingfei couldn't help but look at the sky but only looked at it.

The flowers on the umbrella arrived.

"Will you? I don't think so. At least you signed up, otherwise our class would have passed that project." Chen Wenwen shook her head and said, "I have always thought that you are actually a courageous person, but sometimes you are a little too courageous.

Being slow will result in the results not being perfect every time. You just need to get rid of this bad habit. After all, people will grow."

"So it's the same this time. Although I don't know what kind of trouble you are in, I think as long as you are willing to deal with it, you can always get over this troublesome matter." The girl looked at him and said seriously, before she spoke.

Something in his eyes felt much lighter, as if he was able to say something he had been unable to say.

Lu Mingfei was slightly startled and turned slightly to look at the bus passing by on the rainy street with a low curtain of water. What did Chen Wenwen really think? When everyone thought he was extremely embarrassed, even he felt so.

I can see him from such a good angle and praise him for his courage.

But does he really seem to be a courageous person? The registration that time was just a spur of the moment when he saw Chen Wenwen registering for a girl's 5,000 meters. Rather than courage, he would rather say that it was an impulse, which made him faint.

, but now that other girls praise themselves so much, those self-deprecating words can only be swallowed.

No wait, are you really praising yourself? Rather than implying something?

A car passed by at a medium speed and raised a relatively large water curtain. The water flow on the ground was disturbed and bounced on the roadside. Chen Wenwen leaned slightly towards Lu Mingfei to avoid the stagnant water. This movement brought her closer.

The distance between the two of them was not too big. Lu Mingfei, who was still thinking blankly, smelled the smell of shampoo more clearly. It was like bubbles floating upward in deep water. How could he hide it in the rain?

Can't hide it either.

You smell so good. Lu Mingfei suddenly wanted to say this, but couldn't.

The mood is a bit timid, like the shoulders on the edge of the umbrella that are afraid of getting wet and try their best to shrink to a safe place. But the more timid the smell becomes, the clearer the smell becomes, making it difficult to maintain a stable state of mind, like a puddle disturbed by water droplets.

Everyone says that people are visual animals, but in fact, it is better to remember a person's smell than sight, because vision will gradually become blurred after years of dilution, just like a distorted photo. But smell is different, and the impression of a person is the same.

If there is a smell, no matter how long it takes, it will still have a specific image in your mind, and it will even be clear to a certain scene, such as the present on a rainy day.

Perhaps long after graduation, Lu Mingfei started working in society and started a family. One night by chance, he looked at the heavy rain in the city, and the smell of shampoo quietly emerged from the rain, and the girl's image naturally became...

Outlined by the smell, the white dress, the black hair, and the kitten's hairpin. Maybe at that time, Lu Mingfei, who was already an adult and in his thirties, would light a Zhongnanhai stick. He would take a puff from the wind,

What swirled in the swirling smoke was all his regret for the past. If he had been a bit more manly at that time, he would have directly held the hand of the girl next to him and confessed to her with the city's river view, no, the city's rain scene.

Will the trajectory of life be different in the future?

Isn't this the late courage that Chen Wenwen just talked about?

In fact, it is difficult to call courage late. After all, some things require a moment of decisiveness and a sense of responsibility. If you retreat at that time, it will be difficult to make up for many things later, even if you have the courage. Lu Mingfei suddenly realized

At this point, she turned to look at Chen Wenwen. Feeling his gaze, Chen Wenwen also subconsciously looked up at him and noticed that something had changed in the boy's eyesight. She was startled by his first active farewell.

He opened his eyes and said, "The bus stop is just ahead."

Lu Mingfei turned around and looked. They were about to reach their destination unknowingly. The bus stop was not far from Shilan High School. There were no people on the bus stop. As long as they walked there, Chen Wenwen would say goodbye to him, leaving behind

He was waiting alone on the platform for the next bus, but did he really want to go on like this? Or should he say something before arriving at the bus stop, something he should have said long ago during his third year in high school.

Courage, yes, courage, isn't now the time to prove his courage?

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt blessed. He felt that the heavy rain was not too bad. The girl's words meant something, and he seemed a little ready to make a move. He just lacked the courage to make a decisive move. In this kind of atmosphere full of gossip,

In the scene, he narrated the words that had been drafted for three years. He could guarantee that the president of the literary club would never see the lines that had been drafted for three years. After all, those lines were mixed up with him, Lu Mingfei.

A masterpiece composed of sour water stirred countless times after adding literature, quoting Shelley's poems, Aunt Eileen's misery, and even Margaret Duras's desolation on the ferry, no matter which one it is.

The girl will cry after hearing this, right? Even if she refuses, she will give him a hug, right?

If you don’t say it now, when will you wait? The time, place, people and people are perfect. If you want to meet such a good environment, you may have to wait until the monkey year and horse month. There is no monkey year and horse month. Just like the girl said, courage is such a thing, if it happens to happen

If it is suddenly thrown away, then picking it up again can only be the self-comfort of the evader.

"Wenwen, actually I" Lu Mingfei turned to look at Chen Wenwen, words came to his mouth. At this moment, an express train passed by on the street beside them, raising a huge water curtain, and the sound of water flow

covered his voice.

Under the umbrella, Chen Wenwen only heard Lu Mingfei seeming to call her. The voice was not very loud and was disturbed, so she could not hear the special title clearly. When she turned to look at the boy, she found that the boy's expression was particularly strange. It was not the usual one.

The embarrassment we often see is a kind of stiffness, a stiffness whose color is close to today's color.

Lu Mingfei's eyes were not on Chen Wenwen, but on the street not far from them, where there was a man wearing a black coat and a mask, walking quietly holding a black umbrella, and the other party's

His eyes met Lu Mingfei's by coincidence, or it could be said that he had been looking at the boy and girl, but Lu Mingfei quietly turned his head and noticed his gaze.

This was not the most important thing. What frightened Lu Mingfei the most was that, probably out of habit, he always looked at anyone's shoulders today, and it was no exception when he saw this man in a black coat.

, and just by looking at it, he almost lost his soul.

"Attack:120

Defense:110

Agility:70

Special ability: Deadpool transformation (10%)"

The color of these characters is not the usual green but an unsettling bright red. When the rain passes by, it disturbs the virtual characters. The red is more like blood. The eyes on the mask next to the bloody characters are shaking.
