Collapse Simulator, why are we drifting apart?

Number 10, number 15, number 20...

It was the end of May, the day of departure.

The sun was shining and the weather was hot. I don't know when the flower shop had installed air conditioning, and the outside was a sea of ​​red.

"Kafka, come out for a walk with me!"

"No, big brother, there are a lot of customers in the store today."

After these days, she has become accustomed to working in the flower shop, and there is an indescribable smell on her body, including the scent of various flowers and the smell of soil.

Unlike the previous times, Fan Mu did not give way this time.

"Let's walk with you, big brother!" He smiled and said, "The company gave me a job and I will be away for a long time. It will be a long time before we meet again!"

Hearing this, she hesitated for a moment, looked at the guests around her, her eyes quickly became firm, and she opened her mouth to refuse.

"Xiao Ka!" At this time, a reprimanding voice sounded.

Fang Yi walked over, looked at her with dissatisfaction, and forcefully took her hand and put it into Fan Mu's hand.

"Go! Don't come back today!" Her tone was unyielding, like a grandmother scolding her naughty granddaughter.

"Today is your day off. Go spend some time with your brother. He's been complaining to me every day that you don't kiss him anymore!"

Kafka looked at her hand being held, then looked at Fanmu's kind smile, and said nothing, which was considered as her tacit agreement.

Fan Mu nodded at her.

Did he complain? He hasn't had his period for almost half a month. Did grandma notice something?

"Then we'll leave first!" He waved goodbye while holding Kafka's hand.

As soon as we walked out of the store, we let go of each other's hands.

Neither of them expressed anything.

Two people walked on the street, one big and one small, as if they had returned to the past.

"Big brother, where are we going?" Kafka asked.

"Come walk with me, we'll be back soon!" Fan Mu looked around. It was very hot today and there were not many pedestrians on the street.

He really didn't lie, he was just walking around casually without any other intentions. He had not planned to come today, but considering that he might be gone for several years, he thought it was necessary to explain it in advance.

So he came, but after he came, another idea came to his mind, why not go out for a walk, so he came here.

The two of them just walked like this, passing by a fruit store, a clothing store, and so on... They walked for quite a long time without stopping or entering any store.

"Let's go back!" Fan Mu said softly. This walk was meaningless. He didn't feel anything except the heat.

Kafka said nothing.

He chose another way back. When passing by a store, a melodious voice came into his ears and Fan Mu stopped.

It was a violin. He didn't know how to play an instrument but had been fortunate enough to have touched one before, so he recognized it immediately.

Looking into the store through the smooth glass, I saw that it was a shopping mall. Several performers were standing on the wide ground, playing musical instruments that were easy to carry.

Fan Mu just stood at the door and listened for a short while, less than a minute, and then left!

Kafka, who was following behind, looked between the two and took the initiative to speak the first sentence.

"Does Big Brother like music?"

Fan Mu didn't expect her to suddenly start a conversation, so he smiled and shook his head, "I don't like it anymore! But I still like to listen to it."

If you don’t like it anymore, it proves that you liked it before.

"Why?" She then asked: "Why don't you like it anymore!"

"Because I couldn't learn it... I gave up after studying for a few days!" He spread his hands, indicating that this was God's will.

"What musical instrument did you like best, big brother?" Kafka continued to ask.

Although I didn't know why I suddenly asked him such a question, I thought about it and answered: "Violin!"

"There was a most amazing musician in the past, and the first piece of music I ever heard was played by her on the violin."

It was also the instrument he hated the most.

"Ah."

After that, the journey was quiet again until they returned to the flower shop. A cool breeze blew in their faces, and Kafka changed her clothes immediately.

"Why are you back?" Fang Yi walked out from the back door and saw the two people coming back with a look of confusion on her face.

"I'll be back when I'm done walking."

Fang Yi looked at Kafka, who was arranging flowers very naturally. She first turned on the air conditioner and then quietly pulled him into the back door.

"Didn't you want to go out for a walk? Why are you back so soon? Are you having a conflict again?" Fang Yi looked at him without surprise.

"Did you make Xiaoka angry again?"

"Maybe."

If you count the fact that I didn't want to go with him just now, but forced him to go,

"You...ah!" Fang Yi wanted to blame him, but thinking that he was about to leave, she didn't say anything.

"How long will you be gone this time?"

"Probably two or three years. If I'm lucky, I'll be back in a year." Fan Mu had no intention of hiding anything. If he wanted to hide it, he wouldn't have come here in the first place.

"So long?" Fang Yi frowned, her brows twisted into a ball, "What about Xiao Ka?"

"Then I'll trouble you to take care of me for a while. I'll transfer the money to you later!"

"That's it."

She didn't refuse the money.

"Can't you bring your little card with you on this trip?"

"Well, the place we are going is a bit dangerous." Fan Mu nodded and replied. It is impossible for the universe to be without danger.

What's more, the Starry Sky Train was born for exploration, and the road ahead is full of thick fog and unknown.

"Since you're going to be gone for so long, why are you coming back so early?" There was a hint of complaint in Fang Yi's voice, but she soon sighed and rarely spoke up for Kafka.

"A 14-year-old is in her rebellious period. Don't get angry with her. She will figure it out when she grows up."

"Yeah, I know, I'm not angry." Fan Mu shook his head.

"Would you like to stay and have dinner together?"

"No, I'll leave tonight, maybe even earlier!"

"Okay, go and say goodbye to Xiaoka. I will take good care of her. I have treated her as my own granddaughter over the years."

"This is enough."

Fan Mu had already seen through her attitude, but hearing the reassurance with his own ears was still different, at least it comforted him in his heart.

"I go first!"

He opened the back door, came to Kafka who was working at the cash register, and said, "Goodbye."

Just two words, very simple, yet seem to contain thousands of words.

"Well, goodbye, big brother, have a safe journey."

Hearing the farewell, Fan Mu stopped and waved his hand. In fact, he didn't expect to hear a farewell at the beginning.

"By the way, don't forget the redbud flowers at home!"

The sunset is brilliant, as bright as gold, and the world is beautiful, shining like stars.

"I'm confirming with you one last time. Are you sure you want to join our train? Think carefully before answering. It will be too late to regret after you get on the train!"

Ji Zi changed her usual gentleness and asked him seriously.

"Yes, I'm sure!" Fan Mu answered without hesitation.

"Okay, then welcome to the Starry Sky Train, Fanmu! Please take care of me in the future, we are all family now!"

Ji Zi smiled and stretched out her hand to him!

Looking at this familiar face, Fan Mu also smiled, reached out and gently held it, but let go in less than a second.

"Well, please take care of me in the future."
