Jiang Hexun seemed to have returned to his childhood.
She walked in the dark corridor. There was no one in the corridor, only the sound of the wind blowing.
She remembered it, it seemed to be the dormitory where she was in the third grade of elementary school.
When she was little, she was timid, afraid of the dark and afraid of ghosts.
Because there is only her father at home, but her father is an anti-drug policeman and is often away from home due to missions.
Therefore, in the third grade of elementary school, she transferred to a primary school with a managed care system.
Because there were too few students in custody, she was the only one living in her dormitory.
The lights in the dormitory go out at 9:30 p.m.
She didn't dare to sleep, and she didn't dare to close her eyes even if she was covered with a quilt.
Fu Zhiheng is already in junior high school. He doesn't live in school without telling his father. He sneaks out of the school every night and comes to her school to find her. He is afraid that she will be hungry and buys her supper.
She lived on the first floor of the dormitory, and the boy handed it to her through the guardrail of the window.
He wore a black peaked cap and had a warm and bright smile.
"Xunxun, be good, don't be afraid, I'm here."
That night, he sat outside her dormitory all night.
Stay with her and coax her to sleep.
He told her: "The night is our good friend. If we encounter bad people, we can hide in the dark and not be found by the bad people.
The dark night also allows us to find the brightest stars in the night sky and see the most beautiful scenery at night."
She couldn't help but ask: "Brother Fu, is there the brightest star in the sky now?"
"Yes, there are two."
"Then are our mothers the two brightest stars?"
"Yes, they are watching us, so Xunxun doesn't need to be afraid of the dark night, they will protect us in the sky."
Later, she was no longer afraid of the dark.
Because the brightest stars in the dark night are her and Brother Fu’s mother.
…
Jiang Hexun fell into a beautiful dream.
She couldn't go out, didn't want to go out, let alone woke up from her sweet dream.
There was her father and her brother Fu in the dream...
Dad bought her her favorite Barbie doll and a beautiful hairpin she liked.
When there is no mission, he will take her to a nearby park for a picnic or camping in the mountains...
When he was busy, Fu Zhiheng took her riding and used the money he saved to buy her her favorite Haagen-Dazs...
He took her to the snow-capped mountains, climbed the Jade Peak, and walked the most beautiful country trails...
She repeated those sweet dreams over and over again.
However, all these sweet dreams were shattered one by one.
"Xunxun, your father was shot and died. He was an upright hero. We will all be your parents from now on..."
She looked at her father lying in the coffin with a dull face, her whole body was shaking, and her eyes were dry and astringent.
The sad music kept swirling in her ears. Many people were crying, but she didn't shed a single tear. It was obvious that she was heartbroken.
She doesn't want her father to be a hero, she only wants him to be her father.
Fu Zhiheng held her in his arms and said softly: "Xunxun, don't be afraid, I will take care of you from now on."
However, he also broke his promise.
The lake water was so cold that it bit her body.
His body was covered in blood, which dispersed into the lake like smoke.
He said: "... Xun Xun, hold your breath, don't make a sound, don't make a sound... they will see..."
She was very obedient and well-behaved, and she didn't dare to make a single sound.
She hid under the lake water, covered her mouth with her hands, held her breath tightly, and watched helplessly as the young man's dead body floated further and further away...
