Actually, this scene of fallen leaves is very beautiful.
But it also makes people feel a little sad.
Although the leaves fall and return to their roots, the leaves that grow again will not be the same ones after all.
...
The noodles that arrived were no longer hot.
Xiao Xiao stirred it a few times with chopsticks.
After thinking about it, based on the principle of not wasting food, Xiao Xiao started.
The noodles in your mouth are still slightly warm.
The taste is naturally not very good, but it is not as bad as expected.
However, it was really the first time for him to dine with the background sound of crying at such a close distance.
What a... novel experience.
…
Xiao Xiao put down his chopsticks.
He tilted his head and looked diagonally in front of him, where the fungus was sitting on the table, probably exhausted from crying.
The eyes were red and swollen like walnuts.
Tears continued to flow from the corners of his eyes.
He was suddenly worried, wouldn't this fungus become dehydrated if he kept crying?
Because, the current fungi looks... like a dry... shiitake mushroom.
Although it was a bit inappropriate, Xiao Xiao still raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
He took the chopstick holder and placed it behind the fungus.
The fungus couldn't help but look up because of his actions.
His face was stained with tears, and his expression of grief paused for a moment.
Xiao Xiao used the chopsticks to cover his head, stretched out his fingers and gently touched the fungus's head, and said in a low voice, "Stop crying."
"If I keep crying, I might have to ask the waiter for a glass of water."
Because of the sudden weight and temperature on his head, the bacterial man's brain suddenly fell into a panic state, and he could not hear clearly what the human in front of him said.
However, the tears stopped because of this.
The bacterial man has a blank expression and his whole body is stiff.
Why?
Hey~~?!
…
Xiao Xiao slightly poked the mushroom man's head with his finger in a funny way.
"Silly?"
"Gu?!"
The fungus let out a sharp cry.
Then he covered his mouth with both hands and looked at the human in front of him with a horrified expression.
Xiao Xiao:......?
He put his forehead on one hand and lowered his eyes to look at a particularly pitiful monster, "I'm sorry, did I scare you?"
"Gugu~"
The fungus made several vague sounds.
It's just too surprising.
This human being can really see it.
The first time it encountered humans...the first time it was encountered by humans.
The strange feeling made him forget his sadness for a moment.
The human took his hand back.
The fungus tilted his head, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his head, where he had just been touched by a human.
There is no warm feeling just now.
It's a bit disappointing.
…
"Bacteria man, do you want to follow me?"
Xiao Xiao stretched out his hand to the fungus, with a gentle smile on his eyes and eyebrows, "Let's talk somewhere else."
He has finished eating his noodles.
It's not easy for him to stay here for too long.
After all, a noodle shop is not a place to spend time like a coffee shop or a teahouse.
"Perhaps, I can help you find a new shiitake mushroom that you like."
The bacteria man's eyes lit up.
Does it like new shiitake mushrooms?
It had just cried a lot, and a lot of the sadness in its heart had dissipated.
Already weak due to the loss of its accompanying shiitake mushrooms, it felt even more weak all over its body.
New it likes shiitake mushrooms…
It likes shiitake mushrooms…
The fungus slowly extended his hand to Xiao Xiao.
Just when the bacteria man's fingertips touched Xiao Xiao's fingertips, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, feeling warm.
The next second, "Boom~"
The fungus fell forward.
Xiao Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he stretched his hand forward faster than he realized, catching the fungus who fell face down.
Feeling the weight in his palm, a wry smile appeared on his face.
He is really a monster who only loves to show off his strength.
I really worked hard to get the mushrooms back.
Cried again.
It's time to be exhausted.
Xiao Xiao carefully put the fungus into his jacket pocket.
Then, he got up and left the noodle shop.
…
Xiao Xiao walked towards the school.
The fungus will probably have to sleep for a while.
When it wakes up, I wonder if it is willing to meet its companions?
The fungus in the yard will be very happy to see this fungus, right?
…
Back in the dormitory, Xiao Xiao made a simple nest using cardboard boxes and handkerchiefs.
Then put the fungus in.
Zhang Bo and others who were watching the whole process went from being confused at first to thoughtful later on.
"Lao San, this..."
Zhang Bo subconsciously lowered his voice.
"A sleeping little monster."
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, he reached out and covered the fungus with his handkerchief.
Then he placed the nest in the grid above the desk.
"oh."
Everyone was stunned.
…
The next day, looking at the unchanged nest, Zhuge Yun couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Lao San, it hasn't woken up yet?"
"It probably needs to sleep a little longer."
Xiao Xiao glanced at the fungus' peaceful sleeping face.
…
It's been three days and there's still no sign of the bacteria waking up.
Xiao Xiao was a little worried.
"Ajiu, has it slept for too long?"
The little white fox lazily raised his eyelids, "How long is this?"
"It's only three days."
"Hiss~"
White Snake raised his head and said, "Master Xiao Xiao, this monster has lost a lot of its power and will not wake up so soon."
"For monsters, it's normal to sleep for any length of time."
"It'll be okay."
"Yeah?"
Xiao Xiao carefully looked at the fungus's face.
The tan skin makes it difficult to judge the status of this monster from the other person's face.
However, the little monster's quiet and peaceful expression made Xiao Xiao put aside some of the worries that had arisen before.
"I see."
…
The weather is getting colder.
It is already late autumn.
There are a lot less fallen leaves on the streets.
The strong branches stretched towards the gray and obscure sky, showing some cold edges and corners.
Xiao Xiao, who was jogging on the playground in the morning, suddenly stopped.
He raised his head as if aware.
A snowflake fell lightly on his face, and a bit of coolness spread.
Snowing.
Surprised shouts from students rang out all around.
After all, this is the first snow of the year.
It came so early.
It's bound to make people excited.
…
Snowflakes seemed to glow under the gray-blue sky.
Light up the whole world.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier.
It almost covered up the original color of the sky, leaving only white.
The campus was in a state of excitement.
…
Naturally, such heavy snow is not suitable for morning jogging.
Xiao Xiao walked towards the bedroom.
"Coffee~"
Philip stood up, his silver-blue eyes reflected the snowflakes in the sky, just like the sky at this time.
"Woo~"
Taotie waved his paw impatiently, bringing up a small whirlwind, and the snowflakes were caught in it, flying.
Feeling the movement above his head, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
"Hiss~ The first snow this year is relatively early compared to previous years."
The white snake opened its bright red vertical pupils.
