Conservation of energy

It was already dawn, Shen Lin smoked a pack of cigarettes, went back to the room and washed his face first, the cold water froze his body, looked at the mirror with blue stubble on his face, and silently scolded himself for being shameless, waiting After gradually calming down and answering the room, Luo Xintong still had the sleeping face he had seen at night, as if he hadn't moved a bit, Shen Lin took a deep breath, pretended to lie down as if nothing had happened, closed his eyes, and was completely sleepless.

After Luo Xintong woke up, he saw Shen Lin packing up his things. Shen Lin told Luo Xintong that there was an urgent matter at home and he had to go back immediately. Luo Xintong was very sorry. After Shen Lin finished his breakfast, Luo Xintong sent Shen Lin to the station in the town. Shen Lin walked the same way that Luo Xintong came back, thinking, everything is over, and there is no going back.At the station, Luo Xintong said goodbye to Shen Lin reluctantly. Before entering the station to check the ticket, Luo Xintong gave a hug to Shen Lin who was alone this year, and then they stretched out their fists to each other's chest. Hit each other and say goodbye.

Shen Lin got into the car and clutched his chest. Luo Xintong's punch just now made his heart seem to have forgotten to beat. Shen Lin looked at the backward scenery outside the window. This was the way back with Luo Xintong. In the future, he might I will never come again, I am like a thief, stealing short-term happiness and warmth from someone, just like a farmer and a snake, until I feel a little cold on my neck, I realize that I have already burst into tears, tears I didn't even notice it dripped down my face to my neck...

When Shen Lin returned home, he found that there was no one at home. His grandparents had all gone to Hainan for the New Year, and he was the only one left in the empty room. Shen Lin felt that he was very tired, so he went to bed for a nap, and then dreamed of being with a boy again. A couplet was pasted in a yard, the boy even smeared himself with paste, and set off fireworks with the boy, the boy seemed to be talking about something, but the sound of firecrackers was too loud, it was hard to hear what the boy was saying. It wasn't until his fingers were scalded by the salute in his hand that he suddenly woke up, a familiar feeling, a sticky wetness under his body...

Shen Lin didn't dare to sleep anymore, so he slapped himself twice, and went to the Internet cafe to play games as if fleeing, often going out at night, Shen Lin didn't dare to let himself sleep at night. When dreaming, even if he sleeps at night, he will set a few alarm clocks for himself, so as not to sleep too deeply and dream about Luo Xintong. During that time, Shen Lin learned to smoke, and his pockets were no longer filled with sweet hair. Greasy sugar, but lighters and smoke.Luo Xintong sent several text messages during the period, but Shen Lin didn't reply. He wanted to delete the message, but he looked at the phone but was reluctant to delete it. But every time he saw Luo Xintong's text message, he would read it silently for a long time, word by word. Punctuated for a long time.A few days later, I simply changed my phone number.

Shen Lin didn't know the arrival of 2008 until he could hear the noise and carnival around him while wearing headphones. He took out his mobile phone and edited a "Happy New Year" text message, and looked at the two contact names of "Xintong". For a long time, but never clicked the send button, just said the words "Happy New Year" in a low voice, even I couldn't hear it, the Internet cafe was too noisy, some people were calling excitedly, some people were playing games Li was crazily shouting Happy New Year into the headset, his ears were full of noise, then he looked out of the window of the Internet cafe, there were no fireworks and firecrackers, and when he walked out of the Internet cafe, he looked at his own shadow under the orange street lights on the street, and it seemed even more deserted. The streets that had been bustling for a few days were empty at the moment, and the windows of the shops were all written on red paper with the words "Happy New Year, family reunion, and the eighth day of the Lunar New Year".Shen Lin walked aimlessly until he reached the school gate before shouting "Happy New Year" in the direction of the school teaching building.

Luo Xintong watched the Spring Festival Gala watching the TV with his family. When he saw "Fancy Basketball", he remembered Shen Lin's performance at the welcome party. Thinking of Shen Lin, Luo Xintong had an imperceptible smile on his lips. Immediately, he sent a text message to Shen Lin, "He is not as handsome as you in turning the ball with his arms", but Shen Lin did not respond for a long time. What Luo Xintong didn't know was that Shen Lin had changed his mobile phone number, and he didn't know that the other party would not see this message. Information, just think that people have something to do at home and don’t check their mobile phones during the Chinese New Year, so I can’t help but feel a little disappointed.Then I heard Shen Lin's favorite singer Jay Chou singing ""Blue is waiting for misty rain and I'm waiting for you"-"Blue and White Porcelain". Luo Xintong only felt that the lyrics were beautifully written, which made people feel very happy. Lin was humming a song while watching TV, feeling a little regretful that Shen Lin did not celebrate the New Year at his home, otherwise the two would definitely share the joy together. The host on the TV is already counting down the New Year, and Luo Xintong took He took out his mobile phone and sent Shen Lin a "Happy New Year" text message. It happened to be midnight. Luo Xintong went to the yard to play fireworks with his younger siblings.

One space, two lives.

Luo Xintong and Luo Sensen's family did not meet Shen Lin in the community when they returned to the city. Turn off the phone, and school will start soon, Luo Xintong and Luo Sensen came downstairs on the first day, but still did not see Shen Lin, searched everywhere, but found no trace.Luo Sensen also curiously asked why he didn't see Shen Lin. Luo Xintong shook his head blankly. He came out from behind the wall, watched the two people walking away from a distance, and then pushed out his mountain bike from behind the wall.The two of them had never met anywhere in the school, but Rosenson told his brother that Shen Lin seemed to be quite haggard when he came home at night, and he was not in the classroom except for class time, he seemed very busy, and he didn't know what he was busy with. .The next day, Luo Xintong was carrying a big bag and planned to send him the special products for Shen Lin, but when he got downstairs, Luo Sensen asked Luo Xintong to give him the things and asked her to pass them on to Shen Lin.

Shen Lin received the gift from Luo Xintong, and secretly opened it when he got home. It was a box of candy made from sweet potatoes in the country. The pieces were about the size of two fingers, and they were golden. They looked very attractive. Shen Lin Lin opened one, it was very sweet and soft, like the piece that Luo Xintong picked off from the corner of Luo Xintong's mouth when the two were roasting sweet potatoes... Luo Xintong, I'm a fucking scum, can you stop appearing in front of me , and then angrily threw all the candy into the trash can. After a long time, Shen Lin felt that it was not the candy that should be thrown into the trash can but himself, the scum, so he carefully picked up the candy from the trash can, and then Packaged in a toffee box and put in a drawer.

The first time the two met since the start of school was almost a month later at the door of Luo Zhengwen's office. Luo Xintong seized the time to hide secretly at the corner of the office door. When he came out soon, he happened to see Luo Xintong standing at the door, and Shen Lin's face was a bit haggard. Shen Lin saw Luo Xintong with a smile on his face, and Luo Xintong took the initiative to say hello, except for "um". With a sound, but without any further meaning, they proposed to play basketball together. Shen Lin agreed, and the two went to the basketball court to play for a while.The two of them walked to the big peach tree behind the basketball court, and went to rest under the peach tree. The weather in March had begun to warm up, and the green leaves showed a faint pink color. A breeze brought a faint fragrance of peach blossoms to the air. , a few petals fell on the shoulders of the two with the wind.Luo Xintong wanted to ask Shen Lin a lot of questions, and he just asked the first question, "I haven't seen you recently, what are you up to?" Shen Lin just smiled and said indifferently that he was not busy, he was about to be divided into subjects, and he was too nervous to study.Then he said that he would eat first when he was hungry, and we would talk next time. Before Luo Xin could speak, he saw that Shen Lin had already left.

Luo Xintong stood in the same place, feeling that something had changed, as if something was gradually moving away from him. It was only the Spring Festival, and Shen Lin seemed to be a different person, and the smile on his face became perfunctory and unfamiliar. It's fun to be together for a whole day even if the two of them don't speak, but now the two of them even say hello and feel that the air is full of embarrassment, as if they are deliberately alienating themselves?Shen Lin was not like this before, Luo Xintong was a little at a loss, Shen Lin used to be a person who could say whatever he wanted, and would make fun for himself when he was in a bad mood, as he himself said, eating sweets would make people He is in a good mood. He is a person who knows how to regulate himself. Occasionally he likes to make some harmless jokes to entertain others and fool himself. Will he see shadows, sunshine and warmth in places with him? What happened this Spring Festival?
