A pendulum clock hangs on the wall.

The big yellowed pendulum clock makes a retro 'tick-tick-tick' sound even at night.

Clean and bright.

It was the most appropriate word for what Su Mu thought about this room.

To be more specific about the current situation, Su Mu is not very clear.

But the only thing that was clear was the horrific scene.

Maybe in terms of memory, Su Mu would never forget it in this life.

The composition of the terrifying scene is actually quite simple.

I have known Su Muyuan since she was in kindergarten.

A little girl with short twin tails, always silent, quietly reading some obscure books that other children except her could not understand.

In terms of my feelings at that time, she was at most a maverick or introverted little girl.

Maybe it was a long time ago, and Su Mu couldn't remember why she was isolated to that extent.

Anyway, something happened when she was in third grade.

Specifically, it means being isolated and then bullied.

The most serious thing was that Su Mu saw a few naughty people with his own eyes - no, that was already considered evil.

She watched helplessly as several small children took out her schoolbag openly, took off her pants and peed in it while no one was around at noon.

how to say?

That kind of scene gave Su Mu a very disgusting feeling. Although he didn't have a close relationship with those people, they were still friends. But at that moment, Su Mu felt that something was breaking in his heart.

They were laughing and shouting, "Would you like to try it out? It's very fun."

Looking back, this is probably something I regret.

Because at that time, Su Mu could only stand on his seat and watch the "evil" happening. He could do nothing but watch. He even laughed in agreement because of the "collective" power.

Su Mu will always remember the expression on her face when she returned to her seat in class that afternoon and was about to take out the book from her schoolbag, but suddenly found that her schoolbag had been done that way.

Don't try to form any complicated expressions without authorization.

In fact, her little face had no expression at all. Unlike what everyone thought, she neither made a fuss nor cried. Even her eyelids never trembled in vain. She just raised her right hand very calmly.

He told the teacher that his schoolbag had been pranked.

The most profound thing shouldn't be the hysterical expression, the most unforgettable thing should be the expression that has no expression. Because you can never understand what a person who has no expression is thinking in his heart.

Until now, Su Mu still doesn't understand what she was thinking at that time.

After that, Su Mu, out of an awkward mentality, let's call it sympathy or guilt, began to contact her, talk to her, and try to be friends with her.

However, Sumu soon discovered that this was in vain.

It's not that she doesn't want to stay with Su Mu. On the contrary, she doesn't know why as long as Su Mu sits with her, she always has a slight smile on her lips. But she seldom speaks.

Even if she said it, Su Mu couldn't quite understand what she was talking about.

For example, when talking about 'death is the opposite of life' and 'self-image', as a third-grade primary school student, what can Su Mu understand when he is still memorizing multiplication tables?

"I like you."

This was the only sentence Su Mu could understand.

But at that time, Su Mu could only understand how the words were written, and could not understand what she meant by "like". He foolishly thought it was like Aunt Zhang next door saying, "This kid is so good, I like it."

like.

"I like you too, haha."

Su Mu responded to her with her own understanding, and her round eyes showed a clear smile.

He said this because Su Mu's mother once taught him that if an aunt you know says this to you, you should tell her that you like her in turn, and the other person will be very happy.

"Don't come near me again, and don't talk to me again."

One day, she suddenly said this.

"Why?"

Su Mu couldn't understand it at all.

Because there are no signs or reasons for this.

No.

Maybe there is a reason.

For example, although I was in contact with her, I never broke off the contact with the perpetrators who were later scolded by the teacher. Because in the group.

"Don't play with that freak, or you may get infected."

Some children in the "collective" warned Su Mu like this.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just playing with her."

Su Mu disliked his cunning attitude.

Maybe that's the reason why she suddenly said that.

In short, after that, due to her unilateral alienation, Su Mu had no contact with her for a year.

In the fifth grade, the class was divided into Class 1 and Class 2. She was in Class 2 and Su Mu was in Class 1. Occasionally, Su Mu could still see her. She was no different from before. She was still isolated and quiet by herself.

sitting in seat reading book.

There is an opportunity for contact.

Sumu had a conflict with the perpetrators.

The reason is that Su Mu is a little closer to a little girl that one of those people likes. Because they always walk together along the way.

At that time, Su Mu didn't understand what liking meant, and he didn't know if it counted. In short, he didn't want to listen to their threats and hastily broke off the relationship with the girl.

Think with the mentality of a child, why do you just separate in front of so many people? Isn’t that very shameless?

Therefore, it was natural that Su Mu was blocked by those people when he came home late one day from duty.

The schoolbag was thrown into the urinal.

I also received a lot of punches and kicks from them physically. That was something I asked for.

Originally, they were worried that they were friends. In other words, they were worried that Su Mu could copy their previous homework and help them do it, so they didn't think of taking action.

Some people said that as long as Sumu agreed to stay away from that girl.

But Sumu didn't agree.

He thought that the whole class knew about this matter, and it would definitely be embarrassing if he hurriedly broke off the relationship at this time.

Don't agree.

So Su Mu was beaten and his schoolbag was thrown into the urinal. Don't doubt it, children's evil will be infinite when magnified, because they lack the ability to distinguish right from wrong.

A few days after that, those people relented again. Maybe they didn't want to lose Sumu's convenient working machine, so they came to Sumu for peace talks again.

They asked Su Mu to write a love letter with the little boy who likes that girl. If she chooses Su Mu, they will not say anything about this matter.

Su Mu agreed.

In fact, that girl probably has a crush on Su Mu.

On the afternoon when they handed over their love letters together, Su Mu and the little boy chased her to ask who she should choose.

Probably knowing that she couldn't escape and had to tell the truth no matter what, she said the word "you" to Su Mu with a blushing face, and then ran away quickly.

"Ha ha."

Su Mu was immersed in joy and pride, completely unaware of the distorted face of the boy next to him.

Yes, the whole class knows this. Su Mu will be embarrassed if he loses, but the boy will also feel embarrassed if he loses.

"Su Mu, I don't think this is enough for you. You have to write a formal love letter to Su Li like in the TV series. Only then can it be considered love."

He said.

"A formal love letter?"

Su Mu couldn't understand these things at that time.

"Yeah, I watched TV dramas where adults are like this. They write a long and disgusting love letter, and then prepare a token of love, leave the address of the meeting in the love letter, and then give the token to the other person. That's it.

Engaged."

"got engaged?"

"Ah, engagement means that you agree to get married and live together when you grow up. Don't you want to live with Su Li?"

"think."

Su Mu thought, wouldn't it be very happy if he could play with her all the time?
