The Spirit World

Chapter 74 IF

"Lin'er, tomorrow your uncle and aunt will come to pick you up to their home..." The deputy director's grandmother held Lin'er, who buried her head in her arms, looked at the bright light and said, "Tomorrow, you will leave this place. When you get there, you must be good. Remember to come and see grandma more often when you have time~" She touched Lin'er's head with her old hand. Lin'er felt it prickly, but a warm air spread from her hand to the back of her head, which was very comfortable.

"Well, Lin'er will definitely come back often..." Lin'er smelled the medicine on the old lady's body, bitter, but also with a little sweetness. She didn't know what would happen tomorrow. The two uncles and aunts were very kind, and she had no way to refuse. No matter what, she should leave. For her better future, the old lady would definitely send her away. Leaving this welfare home was her best destination.

"If you encounter any situation, be sure to tell the uncles and aunts, don't hold it in and solve it by yourself, okay?" The old lady touched Lin'er's head, again and again, like she was touching a lazy cat, lying on her body and acting coquettishly. This child is really like a cat with a complicated personality. Sometimes you can't even guess what she is going to do or how she will do it...

Watching her grow up little by little, the emotion in my heart also came over me little by little. Lin'er was found the night after the child was found. The expenses of the welfare home increased sharply, but the sin of abandoning children in this way could only be borne silently by those parents. Her heart has grown old. She is no longer like when she was young to denounce those evil people who do not care about life. She silently bears the payment they should have made, teaches these children kindness, and teaches these children the principles of being a human being. Her original intention was not to let the children accept such a tragic fate, but to tell them that even if life abandons you, you should not hate it. To you, you are a treasure that no one can ever have. This is very important to everyone, not just them. The sadness in the hearts of children who have suffered injustice should not follow them all their lives. They are themselves and do not belong to anyone, don't they?

She looked at the light that was almost dimming in her eyes. Her body was becoming increasingly unable to bear it. She was getting older, but she would still be present in this career.

"Grandma... Brother Yufeng, will he leave?" Lin'er's whole face was in the arms of the vice-president's grandmother. The voice she made was a little dull through the clothes. The vice-president couldn't see her face clearly. She didn't know why this child cared so much about the boy who made her even more worried. However, she had never thought of lying. But in order to reassure her, she still said those lies one by one: "He will also be picked up by his uncle and aunt, Lin'er don't worry, but when the time comes, you will all have a good home, and I won't have to worry..."

Lin'er's hand was gently placed on the old lady's clothes, and she grasped it tightly for a moment, then let go. She did not ask any more questions. The vice president held her tightly. Sometimes, such things really could not be explained. Lin'er's face was completely buried in her clothes, and no one knew what the child was thinking. She and the child seemed to have a natural, magical attraction to each other. They grew up together. Even if they were bullied occasionally, Lin'er's crying would become small because of the illness.

What a good little girl she is, so well-behaved, so kind, and able to silently endure the torture of illness. If it weren't for this difficult-to-treat disease, perhaps she would never have the chance to meet Lin'er in her life. Loving her like a granddaughter can't offset the pain in her heart. Should she be thankful that Lin'er's illness gave her the chance to meet Lin'er, or should she be sad? The deputy dean no longer understands. Some people say that the older people get, the more nostalgic they become. The days and nights when she took care of Lin'er appear in front of her eyes little by little. Deep love cannot erase Lin'er's pain, but at least it can make her understand that the people who love her are sincere in this seemingly absurd world, loving her sincerely and giving her more, more hope.

It was late at night and the deputy director left Lin'er's room. Lin'er lay quietly on the bed. The clock hands in the room moved again and again. It was a night of neither too much nor too little. Many people had not fallen asleep. The lights in the security room were still on. The chirping of summer insects reached everyone's ears. It was a dull night, but there was a cool breeze blowing. Lin'er pretended to fall asleep, and now she slowly got up from the bed again. She was eager to say goodbye to the boy. She sneaked out of the room. The lights in the corridor were a little dim. As long as she walked through this staircase, she could reach his room.

"dong dong dong"

"Is Brother Yufeng here?" Lin'er knocked on his door gently. The sound of slippers dragging on the floor came from the door. The door opened with a click. She was stunned. It was a boy she had never seen before. This boy was ordinary, even a little fat, and not as handsome as she imagined.

"What's wrong? Little sister Chen Lin..." said the fat boy. His voice was soft, but it made Lin'er very uncomfortable.

"Excuse me... Is Brother Yufeng asleep?" Lin'er wanted to look into the room, and the fat boy made way for her without hiding anything. However, he was a little confused: "I am Chang Yufeng... What's wrong, little sister Chen Lin? Are you too happy? Have you lost your memory?"

Lin'er looked at the boy who called himself Chang Yufeng in shock and took a step back as if struck by lightning: "No...you are not Brother Yufeng..."

"? You're leaving tomorrow, so you're going to play an unfamiliar game today?" The fat boy looked at the frightened little sister with a smile on his face. Even though he sometimes bullied her, she wasn't even out of the orphanage yet. Why was she so anxious to forget him?

"No... You are not Brother Yufeng..." Lin'er ran in the corridor, and the fat boy followed her anxiously. What happened to this little sister? Was she confused by the fever?

Lin'er watched the fat boy following her, puffing up her legs and trying to run faster. This man was obviously not Chang Yufeng, but he pretended to be him, which scared her. However, she could not outrun the healthy boy and was forced into a corner. The sound of running in the corridor attracted many children from the welfare home to stick their heads out. They gathered together and looked at the two people. The fat boy stood there panting, holding the wall. He anxiously looked at the very scared little sister Chen Lin to see what was wrong: "Ha... Little sister Chen Lin, what happened? What's wrong with you?"

"You are not Brother Yufeng, give me the real Brother Yufeng quickly! aaaaaaaaaaaaa" Lin'er rushed forward. She was forced into the corner. She closed her eyes and tried to push the fat boy away.

"I am really Chang Yufeng... Little sister Chen Lin, you are not really delirious due to fever..." The fat boy turned around gently and let Lin'er leave. He did not chase after her. His words were full of doubt, as if he was looking at a little fool.

"Brother Yufeng, what's wrong?" A girl with a blue bow on her head walked to the fat boy and looked at the figure who had already run downstairs, confused: "What's wrong with Chen Lin? Why is she so abnormal? She just came back from the hospital. Is she going to be admitted to a mental hospital?" Her blue bow seemed to be very much in line with her preferences and was worn very fairly, but her buck teeth made her less cute. Despite this, it seemed that the fat boy and the buck-toothed girl had a good relationship.

"Lin'er, what's going on with Chen Lin? Do you know?" The fat boy looked at the figure who had already run downstairs, and looked at the bucktooth girl in confusion. "Who knows... maybe she's really insane, she may have cancer, or even bubbles in her brain..." The bucktooth girl stopped looking at the figure who had already come downstairs, and took the fat boy's hand: "Hey, Brother Yufeng, don't pay attention to her... She will be picked up tomorrow, it's normal for her to be crazy today..."

"Lin'er, I think this person is really weird. I read a book about a man who became the top scorer in the imperial examination and then went crazy. How could Chen Lin, who was adopted by someone, also go crazy?" The fat boy looked at the girl with buck teeth, somewhat puzzled.

"If it weren't for the fact that she and I have the same name, I really wouldn't have been so nice to her before. Even if she's crazy now, it's just a bit unlucky."

"..." The fat boy looked at the figure that had disappeared, his expression complicated as if he had eaten shit, and the flesh on his face was squeezed together, looking very ugly.

Everything happened too fast. The fat boy who claimed to be Chang Yufeng was definitely not the brother Yufeng that he was looking for. Even if the room was right, the name was right, everything was right, and the whole world was right, as long as it wasn't him, it was wrong...

Lin'er hurriedly ran downstairs and ran towards the yard of the welfare home. She wanted to escape from here, this fake world...

The young man in the security room saw someone coming down and quickly followed. Lin'er was pulled back. She struggled, but she didn't have the strength to do so. She began to shout at the top of her lungs, but only a hoarse sound came out of her throat. Under the moonlight, she was taken to the vice president's room in the arms of the security man. She lay in the vice president's arms again, and she gradually calmed down.

"What's wrong? My child..." The vice president hugged her, tears streaming down his face, "Did you have a nightmare? Grandma is here... Don't be afraid..."

"Grandma, Brother Yufeng is missing..." Lin'er sobbed, shrinking her body in fear. Her voice was already hoarse. It was already midnight, and the chirping of insects seemed to drown out her voice...

"Chang Yufeng has been here all the time..." The old lady who was the deputy dean looked at Lin'er in confusion, her wrinkles slightly wrinkled under the light.

"No...that's not Brother Yufeng..." Lin'er looked up at the vice president. Although there were traces of tears in her eyes, she was very determined.

"What's wrong with you? Lin'er? Chang Yufeng has been here the whole time..."

Lin'er looked at the Vice Dean with grievance. She broke free from her arms and looked at her in disbelief. Everything seemed like an unreal dream. The Vice Dean looked at her, not knowing what was going on.

With a buzzing sound, tinnitus sounded in her head and her brain began to go blank, along with the room spinning. She suddenly saw a little boy in white clothes standing outside the window, looking at her. His heroic eyebrows and gentle eyes were even brighter under the moonlight.

Every summer, the cicadas that have been lurking underground for years will chirp endlessly.

That is summer’s dream.

That is the noise of life.
