The countryside is particularly quiet in the afternoon.
Ye Chuxia walked out of the door without thinking about anything or anyone to contact. Contacting anyone would be in vain.
I no longer stagger when walking.
As if something was guiding or attracting her, she walked uncontrollably towards the secluded path.
The greening around here is very good, and there are dedicated personnel to maintain it every once in a while. After all, the money you have to pay to live here is not a small amount, so this environment must be guaranteed.
"ha···"
First, take steps.
Then try to take a staggering step faster.
Two steps.
Three steps.
Then he started running with full enthusiasm.
East?
West?
Or the north?
Ye Chuxia looked around in a panic.
"Wow..."
The grass was also turned over.
Not a single thing had fallen on the branches.
Did it blow far away with the wind? Although Ye Chuxia's inherent knowledge told her that it was impossible, how could two such heavy exercise books be blown away by the wind? It was not a typhoon.
But I can't find it.
Can't find it anywhere.
If you can't find it, you have to look for it, no matter where you are. It's all you have now.
"Snapped!"
Ye Chuxia's left foot tripped on something raised, and Ye Chuxia's whole body suddenly fell into a low bush.
My calves are hot.
There was a burning feeling on my cheeks.
Ye Chuxia stretched out her hand and touched her calf. It was just blood, nothing serious.
"nothing···"
"Ah ha ha."
Ye Chuxia touched her cheek, smiled, got up and continued searching.
If you can't find something important, you won't even have the right to cry.
It must be retribution.
Because I threw away the gift from my senior, I suffered retribution. I deserved it when my little heart was stuffed into the trash can.
Just find the gift, just find it.
Ye Chuxia couldn't feel anything.
hunger.
tired.
Blood from the wound.
My throat felt as dry as a knife.
They are all ranked after "find", which is greater than physiological needs.
The phone rings, just hang up.
Ringed again?
Just throw it away.
"thump."
Ye Chuxia threw away her phone and concentrated on looking for it.
The sky gradually darkened.
Her eyes were hollow and her whole body was unkempt. This was of course true. No matter how green the environment was in the suburbs, the people crawling around inside could only be dirty.
Suddenly, she saw the small truck that collects garbage at 5pm every day arrived, and two workers got out of the truck.
Ye Chuxia suddenly remembered that they worked in two shifts in the morning and evening, and each shift would carefully clean up the area, which meant that it was very possible that important things had been transported to the garbage dump by their morning shift.
"Uncle, uncle..."
Ye Chuxia walked towards the two workers.
The two workers were startled by the black shadow that suddenly crawled out of the bushes. They were relieved when they saw that it was a girl.
They looked at the girl in front of them warily.
Although her hair was unkempt and her clothes were dirty, it was obvious that she was wearing high-quality goods. Although she only had one shoe, the other one didn't look like she had picked it up. She didn't look like one either.
What a tramp.
Could it be that something happened and he was abandoned here?
"Have you ever seen two exercise books?"
Just when the two of them were about to speak, Ye Chuxia spoke first.
"Exercise booklet?"
The two workers looked at each other and both noticed the other's confusion.
"It's a brand-new textbook that contains one hundred questions for the College Entrance Examination. The other is an old textbook that I took a lot of notes on."
Ye Chuxia's lips were cracked and peeling, and she said motionlessly: "Have you seen it? It should be nearby here."
"College entrance exam sprint?"
One of them glanced at the other.
He remembered that in the morning, the man held two books and said that he had picked up something good and wasted it, saying that he wanted to use it for his son, who was a sophomore in high school.
"Have you ever seen it?!"
"Have it?"
"Uncle, I beg you, those two books are very important to me!"
"Can I give you money? Help me recall it!"
Ye Chuxia reached into her pocket and realized she didn't have any money at all.
Even if I have it, it's still in my phone, but it's a pity that my phone has been thrown away.
"this···"
"At my place."
The worker sighed and said, "I'll bring it to you tomorrow."
Originally, he thought it was just something that the ungrateful young man living here didn't want, but now that the owner was so anxious to find it, he couldn't just keep it as his own with peace of mind.
"Can I get it now? I want it immediately. Can I...?"
do not know why.
Ye Chuxia burst into tears all of a sudden, and big drops of tears fell uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry, I'm not... Wow, I'm sorry!"
"I just...oooo."
"I want to... woo, I want to see you."
"I'm sorry, senior, I... ugh."
The more she tried to control, the more she got out of control and kept sobbing.
"All right."
One worker patted another on the shoulder and said, "Old Wang, please go back and I'll clean up here."
The worker who was called Lao Wang quietly got into the pickup truck and drove away.
"Little girl, if that kind of thing is so important to you, why would you throw it away?"
the worker asked.
"I...wu...ah..."
"Woooo..."
Ye Chuxia wanted to say that that was not what she wanted to do.
I'm just jealous.
Just because I shouldn't have it, I have no right to be angry and jealous and throw away important things.
But she couldn't utter a complete sentence at all, and could do nothing but sob.
"Actually, crying is not that miserable. If you can cry, you will feel a lot better."
The worker turned around, lit a cigarette with his back to her, and silently went about his work.
Ye Chuxia just stood there, looking up at the invisible sky, crying softly and uncontrollably.
It's raining.
It wasn't until tiny moist particles began to fall into her eyes that Ye Chuxia slowly stopped crying.
She looked up at the sky where there was nothing. Not even a star.
Something suddenly occurred to me.
Even if you get something important back, what's the use?
There is nothing left, not senior's words, not senior's touch, not senior's ridicule, not senior's habit of always asking 'are you hungry?', there is nothing.
The worker who went back to pick up the things probably didn't live too far away, so he came back in a small truck soon and returned the textbooks to her.
"This must be your cell phone too, right? It keeps ringing."
Even another uncle who was cleaning up the nearby garbage helped Ye Chuxia find her cell phone.
"Thanks."
"Thank you, uncle, thank you."
Ye Chuxia held the two lost things and couldn't stop thanking them.
"You're welcome. Go back and take a shower and have a good sleep. After a good sleep, everything will be fine."
Two kind-hearted uncles held umbrellas and continued their work.
Ye Chuxia grabbed the phone and wiped the water droplets on the screen vigorously on her clothes, then quickly opened WeChat, text messages, and QQ on the screen. There were many little red dots.
There is Xiao Sensen, there is Sen Xiaolu, there is Su Ma, and there are several roommates.
"Ah...ha..."
But as expected, I searched everywhere but couldn't find any seniors.
Too.
How could she get the care of her seniors when she was like a lost dog? She thought seriously.
