fake smile lover

The place where Chen Nanhuai grew up was called Sangtun. A big river flowing down from the mountain passed by, and the water of the river was clear and cold.

Sangtun people are like steel knives out of their sheaths, and so is Xiao Nanhuai.

What Xiao Nanhuai usually looks forward to the most is to go to the town market with his elderly grandmother tremblingly, and run wildly in the village with his friends for a whole day.Although it is unavoidable to be beaten by relatives when you return home, there is always endless vitality in your young body, as if you don't take these scars seriously at all, and you can run barefoot on the street again the next day, as if A tireless foal.

The teenagers of his age did not run as fast as him; the children who ran as fast as him were not as young as him. He was stubborn and like a fighting wolf cub, and he soon became a village child. king.

At that time, Chen Nanhuai thought that those days would never pass, and someone would always be by his side, so even if his parents didn't care about him, even if the children in his class didn't like him, it didn't matter.

As the years passed, the people who originally gathered around him scattered away one by one.Some of them went to distant places to reunite with their migrant parents and study locally, far away from each other.

Some have new groups, and no longer have any intersection with Nanhuai, or even avoid it, as if they are regretting those absurd and ignorant times.

Just like that, Chen Nanhuai was the only one left in the small courtyard where laughter and laughter used to be, with the scorching sun on his head, the originally fair child had turned into a tanned boy after a few years, his presumptuous smile could no longer be changed. What he saw on his face was replaced by long-term indifference and indifference. The quiet child of the Chen family became synonymous with him.

Once, Chen Nanhuai went to the city with his grandmother to go to the market. There were huge crowds of people everywhere, and everyone was talking about a topic lively. In this city, magic, acrobatics, and circuses, these activities that have long been phased out of entertainment, are still Popular, and even everyone respects magicians.

They were talking about a circus. A circus came to the outskirts of the town. This is a small group of actors from all over the world. The toll continues on the road.

There were still many small groups like this many years ago, but they have basically disappeared now.

Chen Nanhuai is a person who is full of curiosity, even if his friends are separated, he gradually becomes silent.He sneaked away from his grandmother, followed the surging crowd, and saw the true face of the circus at sunset.

The beasts released from the cage, the animal trainer's whip, the sexy but somewhat dirty girls, and funny entertainers in funny clothes, they filled the stage, and the open-air performance was very lively.

But the sharp-eyed Chen Nanhuai saw a strange figure behind the theater.

It was a man with a red nose and a huge costume.His face was covered with pale oil paint.

That is an indispensable role in comedy and acrobatic troupes.

clown.

It was the first time for Chen Nanhuai to see such a penetrating clown. He seemed to be peeking into the big world from behind the door, but at this moment the setting sun was like blood, projecting on his exposed red nose, it was a bright red.

Suddenly, Chen Nanhuai felt that the man saw him.He didn't know why, so he quickly retreated into the crowd, and tightly covered his mouth.He seemed to have seen that man's sinister smile, and saw that clown's big, lifeless eyes suddenly contracted.And the lips under the big nose are saying in a paradoxical melody: "I see you."

Chen Nanhuai felt palpitations for no reason, he wanted to run back to his grandmother, he pushed through the crowd, but what he faced was a raging crowd.

At the end of the performance, people beat each other, and his power to dominate among children is like a drop in the ocean here, not worth mentioning.

The young man was thrown back and forth, almost falling.

At the end of the scene, he was horrified to find that he was left in place, and the huge force made it impossible for him to find Bei.After the show ended, what he saw was a tall, fat figure standing tens of meters away, with his back to the setting sun.

The sun disc gradually sank into the horizon, the man's hair was like a mess of weeds, and his figure also showed a very strange arc, not like a human body, more like a plastic sleeve cylinder.

Chen Nanhuai froze in place for a moment, but the figure staggered towards him.It was only when he got closer that Chen Nanhuai could see his face clearly.

It's the clown.

He couldn't hear what the clown was saying, he could only see the figure lip-synching to him from a distance.

"I saw you!" Such silent words suddenly entered Chen Nanhuai's mind.Chen Nanhuai wanted to escape, but his hands and feet suddenly became disobedient. His legs felt weak and he could only stand on the spot.

The clown walked up to him step by step.He pinched Chen Nanhuai's head with those big hands wearing odd-shaped gloves.Chen Nanhuai wanted to shout for help, but at this moment, he found that there were no spectators around, and the setting sun was gradually sinking into the horizon.

When he saw the bloody mouth covered in bad-quality lipstick and the foul-smelling tone, he said to him, "I've got you!" But surprisingly, the voice wasn't hideous and scary, on the contrary It was like the sound of electric current wearing a voice changer, rustling.

Chen Nanhuai felt the pair of big hands on his neck start to tighten suddenly, like an iron hoop, tightly stuck on his neck, bit by bit, slowly squeezed out the air in his body, exhausted.

His feet kicked feebly in mid-air, his hands danced, but he couldn't reach anything.The strength of the clown was astonishing, he lifted him like a chicken.Faces flashed before Chen Nanhuai's eyes, from the boy who was with him when he was a child, to his relatives, to his parents whom he had met a few times in seven years, and finally the thousands of faces suddenly returned to the original point, turning into a It has the paradoxical face of a clown.

Just when he was about to disappear into this world and his life was about to be blown out in one breath, he suddenly heard footsteps.He seemed to see a ray of light and shadow that could last forever in the sky. He kicked his feet vigorously, and with great difficulty, he kicked on the costume, and the whole costume was dented in a large piece by him.

The clown let go of his hands, and the child fell straight to the ground, and the pain spread from his back all of a sudden.His eyes gradually blurred, and he heard the sound of the strange man stepping on the gravel and leaving quickly.He gradually sat up straight, and his consciousness gradually became clearer. The chill in the town made him shiver twice.

And at this moment, an old man slowly walked in front of him.It was an old man in a Chinese tunic suit with gray hair, but he was still in good spirits.He coughed twice, and asked with a smile: "Brother, can you still stand up by yourself?" The old man's voice was quite humorous, and Chen Nanhuai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Maybe that weird person gave him too much shock, he barely stood up, still supporting his knees, with his head bowed.

The old man didn't speak, and waited until Chen Nanhuai could say, "Thank you." Then he smiled and patted the child's head.

The old man led the young man to a table and chairs. This is the ruins of an old theater troupe. There are no Goulan tile lanes, only these things are left.

"Who is that person?" Xiao Nanhuai asked.

"I don't know, old man, haha, I still want to ask you how you provoked such a pervert. If I came a little later, you wouldn't have done it!" The inseparable dark clouds.

He must know something.

But that's the world of adults, right?Xiao Nanhuai thought about it.But the old man said: "You are frightened, old man, shall I do a trick for you?" Like a craftsman living in the rivers and lakes, the old man took out three bowls and two balls from his arms like a trick, and put them on the table from his neck. He grabbed it casually and pulled out a chopstick.

"How about it, isn't it interesting? My work has been handed down from my ancestors. It has been passed down to me for five generations!"

Chen Nanhuai stared at the two balls intently.

"This trick is called 'Three Immortals Returning to the Cave'. My grandsons and granddaughters all like this handwork, little doll. Guess which one of these three bowls has the ball?"

The old man's hands moved in front of Chen Nanhuai as if wearing flowers and wrapping around a tree.

After Chen Nanhuai failed all bets three times, he wanted to ask the old man, but was told: "One day you will marry into our house, and you can still discuss it, so let's go."

Not long after, Chen Nanhuai heard the sound of grandma bringing someone over.

"A few years later, I occasionally looked through the files and found a case quite similar to this one." Chen Nanhuai recalled.

Zhou You thought for a while, and seemed to have a good impression of this clown.

"The clown murder case." He took up Chen Nanhuai's words without thinking.

"You also know about this case?" Chen Nanhuai tilted his head slightly in surprise. "This murderer is called 'Southern Wind'. However, the most important thing is that I fell in love with the little trick of 'Three Immortals Returning to the Cave' quite strangely. But that old man imitated Lei Feng and did a good deed without leaving his name. I asked later I've been to other people, and they all say they don't know each other, haven't seen it before, as if they are outsiders,

It was more like coming for Nanfeng, but after Nanfeng disappeared, he disappeared along with him. "

Zhou You didn't know what he was thinking, but just let out a low "hmm".After a long time, just said with a smile: "Then when you guessed correctly a hundred times and the Three Immortals Return to the Cave, I will marry you.

After all, you have seen through my unique skills that are under the box. If I don't take you into the room, I will kill you. I don't want to. "

The author has something to say:

Zhou You: Ah Huai is getting cuter and cuter, I have to find an excuse to marry him!
