Wanderer

Bai Tongan and Wen Hai made an appointment on August [-]th, and it was August [-]nd when this call came.

In half a month, whether it is long or not, Wen Haizhui's American TV series has only had two more episodes.To put it short is not short, the files of the two robberies were in his hands, and when the bureau held a regular meeting, the director specially brought him up to let him make a statement.

Anyone with a discerning eye on the sidelines knew the way inside, only Wen Hai said a few perfunctory words on the platform with his eyelids downcast as if he hadn't woken up-at that time, he was full of thoughts about the day when his family would have more people in a few days How should I live, I have no intention of saying beautiful words that I plan to fight for the cause of justice for the rest of my life.

On the early morning of August [-]th, Bai Tong'an directly opened the door of Wen Hai's house with a key.

The windows in the living room are bright and clean. It doesn't look like a place where a single man lives. As far as the eye can see, there are simple to almost simple decorations. The water glasses are the simplest transparent glass, which at first glance looks like a well-decorated model room.

Wen Hai hadn't come back from the night shift yet, and Bai Tong'an took his cheap little brother swaggeringly to overwhelm the guests, and even familiarly took two cans of soda water from the refrigerator to borrow flowers to offer Buddha.

"He doesn't like to drink other drinks. If you want to drink anything in the future, you can just buy it and stuff it in." Bai Tong'an stuffed the soda water into Bai Yunqi's hand who was standing next to the sofa and refused to sit down, "Sit down."

There was no movement there for a long time, so he emphasized his tone: "Sit down quickly, can you stand here for a month and a half?"

Bai Yunqi sat down dawdly, and asked after a while, "Why do you have the key to his house?"

"Oh, he also has my house key, sometimes it's more convenient to take things and put them away." Bai Tong'an took a big sip of soda water, "Our grandpa likes this grandson, he always asks me to carry things here, look at that pile of wood The decoration was carved by my grandfather himself. He grew up in my family when he was a child, and he is half of our family. If you don’t have to be polite to him, just treat it as if you have another brother.”

"Yeah." Bai Yunqi nodded, and sat down very politely again without making a sound.The can of iced soda water was held in his hand, and the water vapor formed a layer of water droplets on the can when it was cold, and his fingers printed a few dense fingerprints on it.If you look carefully, you can see many small scars on those hands. They don't hurt at first glance, but others are very worried.

Bai Tong'an patted him on the back with encouragement and comfort, "You study here for a year, I know you don't want to go back to grandpa's house, I'll help you and tell them, but You can't delay yourself like this any longer."

Bai Yunqi thanked in a low voice, and pressed a small hole in the can with his thumb.

The two were talking, when the sound of taking the key sounded at the door, before the door was opened, the man's hoarse voice came in: "How many times have I told you not to take things from my house, Bai Tong'an Can your ears be less of a decoration?"

"Mosquito smash!" Bo Tongan got up and rushed over to give a hug to the person who was changing shoes at the door. Before he could hug him, he was kicked back. He took two steps back to catch the briefcase thrown by the person, and spread his hands and said: " You have to tell my grandma, the old man reminded you that you are busy with work, and let me bring you a local chicken to replenish your health."

Wen Hai, who was taking off his shoes, almost fell down, looked up and saw Bai Tongan's gloating smile, thousands of words converged into a "fuck me" choked in his throat, and fell to the stripped naked, dying On the native chicken who is crying out for grievances to the sky—how caring, this one still remembers to take off his feathers.

"Okay, I know you don't like making this stuff, so I'll stew it today." Bai Tong'an grabbed the older homeboy who was trying to get into the study, and pulled him to the little boy who was still staring at the soda can in a daze. Next to the old house man, he introduced himself: "This is my younger brother, Bai Yunqi. Xiaoqi, this is our grandpa's closest grandson, Wen Hai. If you have a good relationship with him, you will stand at our family's New Year's Eve dinner. Invincible."

Wen Hai and Bai Yunqi were forcibly placed together, and the involuntary silence turned into an embarrassment in duplicate.

"I'm going to wash the vegetables." Bai Tong'an patted Wen Hai's shoulder vigorously, "You two have a chat."

After Bai Tong'an got into the kitchen, the embarrassment in the living room was about to turn into a solid body and hit the heads of the two of them. Wen Hai secretly reflected on himself, he said that he was an adult, and he couldn't embarrass the child on this occasion. Brashly picking up the topic: "Bo Yunqi... right? Just call me a mosquito just like your brother."

Bai Yunqi put down the can of soda, awkwardly wiped his beaded hands on his jeans, and said softly, "Uncle Wen..."

"..." Wen Hai struggled in his heart, and finally opened his mouth under the evil vanity: "Then what... I am half a year younger than your brother, so there is no need to raise my seniority."

Bai Yunqi immediately changed his words: "Brother Wen, I have troubled you these few days."

Wen Hai nodded perfunctorily, nodded a few times and found something was wrong, and added: "It's nothing, my family was busy with work when I was young, and I grew up in Bai's family, so you don't need to be alienated from me, just treat this place as your brother's home. "

Bai Tong'an answered in the kitchen: "That's right, Xiao Qi, I bought the sofa you're sitting on now, it's the same style as ours."

Wen Hai choked for a moment, and shouted to the kitchen: "Calm down for a while, who carried your bed and TV cabinet upstairs for you?" Turning around, he said to Bai Yunqi: "This is probably the case , neither your brother nor I treat each other as outsiders, and you live here in peace, so if you need anything, just say it, don't wrong yourself."

Bai Yunqi said "um", and after a few seconds of silence, he said: "I'm not very familiar with the road here, I may trouble you a few days before school starts."

"No. 176 Middle School is not far from here. You usually take bus No. 09 during the day and go directly to the school gate." Wen Hai had already prepared, "I will pick you up directly after the evening self-study get out of class. I asked, class ends at 30:[-], Just wait for me at the school gate."

Bai Yunqi blinked a few times, and quickly said, "I'll just walk back, and you can just show me the way a few days ago."

Wen Hai's patience limit for strangers ended here, and he glanced at Bai Yunqi lightly, and ended the conversation with three words neatly - "Listen to me."

Sensing the impatient tone of Wen Hai's tone, Bai Yunqi's reaction was unexpectedly strong, and the look that flashed in his eyes was almost frightened.

He is not at all like his unlucky father as Bai Yunqi said. Those peach blossom eyes are probably the true biography of Bo Kang, who was considered a pretty boy when he was young. Such a beautiful boy should be so panic-stricken. Looking at him with eyes that made Wen Hai feel inexplicably guilty of "I'm bullying others".

"I usually go out in the morning and come home in the evening. The food in the cafeteria of No. [-] Middle School is not bad. You can eat in the cafeteria. I will cook whatever you want on Saturday and Sunday. My cooking skills are not as good as your brother's. You Please bear with me." Wen Hai doesn't know how to coax people, so he can only change the subject abruptly, "Also, sometimes I may get a little irritable when I encounter problems in a case, I try not to bring the fire home, if you see If I look bad, stay away."

Bai Yunqi's expression froze when Wen Hai said "I'll be a little irritable", lowered his eyes and nodded, nervously rubbed his palms on his jeans a few times, and said again: "I'm sorry for your trouble these days. "

Wen Hai finally pulled out a half-dead smile: "I said it's nothing, just treat you as an extra cheap brother, and you can use Bai Tong'an as you like."

Bai Tong'an's grandson's dog ears didn't know how to grow, and he stood up when he heard a little movement, and he answered the conversation a few meters away in the kitchen: "You think everyone orders your brother and me like you, Xiaoqi is more sensible than you too much."

Wen Hai handed them two words: "Fart."

"Come and help me peel the garlic." Bai Tong'an slapped himself in the face before his last words fell to the ground, "Come over to work if you want to eat early."

"I go."

"coming."

Wen Hai and Bai Yunqi stood up at the same time, they were about the same height, just happened to have a historic meeting where their eyes collided, Bai Yunqi turned his face away like a ghost the moment the two faced each other, He lowered his head and hurried to the kitchen.

Wen Hai, who was standing there, turned half a circle in place, and said in his heart: "The children grow so tall now, what do they eat to grow up?"

After dinner, Bai Tong'an and Wen Hai played a few games of XBOX, and the "love warning" came on the cell phone of the married man. I didn't forget to nag Bai Yunqi and Wen Hai again.

Unbearable, Wen Hai kicked him out of the door, and even locked those mothers-in-law and chattering outside the anti-theft door.

Bai Yunqi stood at the end of the porch corridor, silently watching Bai Tongan and Wen Hai quarreling through a door, and suddenly felt a little funny——Wen Hai gave him a very cold and hard first impression, neither talking much nor expressing much, No matter standing or sitting, he keeps his back straight, and every move has a serious and mechanical sense formed after long-term training. However, when this "tough guy" meets Bai Tong'an, his brain circuit is connected to the stage, and he transforms into a middle school boy in a second. , and the one who also took the wrong medicine are committed to attacking and abusing each other, and their combined ages can't reach double digits.

"Haihai——" Bai Tong'an sighed three times through the anti-theft door, "You see half of your body buried in the ground and you haven't given up yet, so I'm really worried about it."

Wen Hai: "Did Xiao Xin ask you to hand in your salary card?"

Bai Tong'an: "..."

Wen Hai pretended to be sorry: "It's really pitiful."

After the angry Bai Tong'an ejected away, Wen Hai turned his head and saw Bai Yunqi standing there restlessly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Your brother is so serious every day that he looks like a dog, and he is doing good deeds with me today, isn't it pretty cool?" Fun?"

Bai Yunqi didn't seem to understand the teasing meaning in his words, and shook his head in a panic.

Wen Hai vaguely felt that the child in front of him seemed to be in a state of high nervousness all the time. He remembered that Bai Tong'an had mentioned something about Bai Yunqi, so he couldn't help but frowned. When he raised his eyes to look at Bai Yunqi again, he found that the other party It turned into that helpless and panicked look.

"Oh, he thought he made me unhappy." Wen Hai thought, and walked straight over. Just as he was about to comfort Bai Yunqi's shoulders, the child trembled violently, and took a step back in extreme fear.

Wen Hai's eyes flashed, "What's wrong with you?"

Bai Yunqi didn't dare to look Wen Hai directly in the eyes, and shook his head again.

"Take you to see your room." Wen Hai stroked the back of Bai Yunqi's head, not only felt the child's instant stiffness, but also touched a scar that had healed, further confirming his guess, he turned his head and saw The other party pretended to be calm, and smiled lightly, "Hair is a bit long, I'll take you to have it cut tomorrow... You don't have a lot of clothes with you, do you want clothes?"

He still had to finish the second half of the sentence - Bai Yunqi didn't bring many clothes, but all of them were big-name goods.

Bai Yunqi said in a low voice: "No need, the clothes I... Mom... bought for me just now." The syllable he stuttered was picked out from between his teeth.

Wen Hai nodded unsurprisingly—he didn't ask where Bai Yunqi's previous clothes went. Bai Tong'an told him before that the place where Bai Yunqi used to live was caught in a fire, and the grandmother who raised him was killed. Burned to death, if it didn't happen, his parents probably wouldn't remember that they had a child 19 years ago.

Wen Hai's guest room was used as a utility room, and he was too busy to tidy it up, so he had to temporarily set up a bed in the study.He stood at the door and said, "Here is an old-fashioned desktop computer. It is not very good at playing games. It is no problem to check information. You will live here this month. You can read the books in the bookcase casually, and it is also convenient for you to study."

Although Bai Yunqi doesn't know how to play computers and doesn't like to read extracurricular books, he can also realize that this person has completely blocked his way of "doing nothing" in advance, so he glanced at him funny, but just in time to catch up with that person Looking at his gaze, he hurriedly turned his head back.

"Okay, you can do your work." Wen Hai patted him on the shoulder, "Say good night to you in advance, and work hard."

After nearly half a minute, when Wen Hai got into his bedroom, Bai Yunqi recovered from his stupefaction, and said softly, "Good night, good night."

The author has something to say:

good Morning.
