At dusk, the sun sets. The undulating hillsides in the distance are golden above the woods. The earth, in the slightly cool wind, has a subtle blue-purple color, like a young woman covered with a layer of gauze.

Ye Zi woke up, he sat up and rubbed his eyes: "Have you left yet?"

The rabbit raised his hand and took down the weeds on his hair and petals on his shoulders in a slight frown. "Hmm. Are you sleeping well?"

Ye Zi remembered that he fell asleep next to him when he was in the cinema last time. He was obviously four or five years older than him, but it felt as if he was taking care of himself, which was embarrassing enough.

He took out his cell phone, suddenly remembered Rabbit's email again, and asked, "Tell me about Zhang Shuyi, why do you want to kill her?"

Zhang Shuyi is the person that Rabbit hopes he will kill, an elderly old woman.

The rabbit looked at the sparkling pool water and said, "She is my old servant, and she is quite repulsive of my mother. She thinks she is not in good condition. She once...sold her body and entered this family just because she was pregnant. She felt that my mother was not worthy of being the hostess of this family. When I was young, she gave my mother a chronic poison. A minor illness became more and more serious and almost died!"

“…”

"After discovering it, my dad didn't punish her, but just let her leave our house. I always felt unhappy. My mom's health was getting worse and worse because of the poison. Now it's impossible for me to go out to play with my friends. I stayed at that house every day, lying in a forgotten place, and enduring my dad and other women. What's the point... All of this was caused by that old woman, so I always wanted to take revenge."

Ye Zi looked through the message in the email: "Don't she just live nearby?"

"right."

"Let's go and take a look."

The rabbit was a little surprised: "A Zi, are you going to do it?"

Ye Zi tskated: "I'm just a fool. I'm not interested in you at all, but I don't want to go back to school now. The apartment is in bad luck, and I don't want to go there. Even if I pass the time."

Yes, since the rabbit gives him the right to choose, only fools will choose to kill people.

He no longer wants to kill anyone.

Never think about it again.

In the orange-red light, flocks of birds circling and flying above their heads, leaves rustling, and unknown wild flowers blooming on the grass at their knees, layer by layer.

Ye Zi walked in front and rabbit walked behind.

Hair and clothes are rippling.

Some people wanted to complain about why the rabbit walked so slowly. When he knew where the old woman lived, Ye Zi looked back at the rabbit and wanted to urge him.

However, as soon as I looked at the rabbit, all the words in my head disappeared.

Ye Zi started to have a headache again, and he frowned slightly.

Then he heard the cicadas chirping, squeaking, squeaking, coming from his right ear.

Not far away, the rabbit wearing a long-sleeved white shirt seemed to have become smaller in an instant, and his figure also became farther away.

The picture kept rustling, like an old movie with bad signals, vague and noisy.

It was a little boy about five years old, wearing sea blue overalls, stockings and small leather boots, standing in the distance, staring at himself eagerly. In the sun, his pale hair floated, as if it was covered with a layer of gold.

In the intermittent picture, he was approaching himself, step by step.

He opened his mouth and called his name:

"A Zi."

"A Zi."

"Will you play with me, okay, A Zi."

...

Ye Zi closed his eyes suddenly.

The rabbit felt his strangeness and asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Ye Zi rubbed her temples, shook her head, and continued to walk forward.

And the rabbit grabbed his arm and said, "Be careful, there is a puddle in front of it."

As soon as I saw the puddle, the cicadas in my ears rang again, and I had a headache. The scene just now appeared again-

"A Zi."

"Will you play with me?"

A tender, familiar voice sounded, which was Ye Zi’s former voice: “I’m so annoying! Don’t always follow me!”

Then the little boy was pushed down, and he took several steps back. When his leather shoes slipped, he slipped into the puddle in a mess. The mud and water splashed high, staining his expensive sea blue overalls, beautiful white shirt and bow tie.

He sat in the mud pit, staring at himself pitifully.

His eyes were big and his eyelashes were slender, like a doll. At this moment, he suddenly frowned and his face, his mouth sagged, and his whole body was trembling. Soon, his eyes turned red and tears burst out.

He cried.

I cried in a mess and was out of breath.

While crying, he shouted: "Azi, Azi, Azi, Azi, Azi..."

His figure and his face were reflected in his tears.

The surface of the puddle that gradually calmed down reflected the blue sky and white clouds.

He cried in the blue sky and white clouds...

While crying, he called his name: A Zi.

...

…………

"A Zi? A Zi?" The rabbit shook Ye Zi several times before Ye Zi woke up.

"What's wrong with you? Your face is not very good, so you'd better go back today?"

Ye Zi was stunned for a few seconds, and everything that had just emerged became blurred, as if it was just a dream.

He shook his head and continued to move forward.

Soon, I saw several bungalows.

The rabbit took the initiative to lead the way, came to a double-story stone house, and stopped.

The iron door was wide open, and in the room, a group of men were playing mahjong, busy. An old woman sat on the threshold, burying her head in peeling beans, and a native dog was lying beside her basking in the sun, with her tongue stretching long.

The old woman is older than in the photo.

He is only sixty years old, but he looks like he is in his eighties. His hair is all white, his skin is full of wrinkles, thin, with a bowed back, and thick glasses.

Ye Zi really couldn't figure it out. Is it necessary to kill such a dying old man?

She has worked hard enough to live like this.

※※※

Ye Zi didn't plan to do anything at all. However, probably because the scenery here fascinated him, he often ran here after dinner at school, read the book in the sunset, slept for a while, and then took the last bus back to school. It was actually not bad.

He often meets old women. In fact, from a certain perspective, he is very similar to old women.

The old woman often carried a crutch and came to the river with her dog until the sun set. At this time, he often read books not far from the old woman. As long as he looked up, he could see the old woman's hunched back.

The old woman seemed to be not doing well. Once, before she came to sit for a long time, a man dragged her back. While dragging her, he scolded her, saying that she was useless and only knew how to enjoy herself and did nothing. Occasionally, someone talked to her, and she was obviously very happy. Unfortunately, those people left quickly. Because she could hardly hear, the conversation with those people was just a quarrel. She liked the children next door very much and often gave them oranges, and the children often played with her dog...

Anyway, no matter how you look at it, this old woman is kind and pitiful, and it is hard to imagine that she would poison people with her.

Before he knew it, Ye Zi felt that he had become an old friend of the old woman.

In any case, I also want to talk to the other party, talk about the young man who bullied her, talk about her past, rabbit's home, if I can, I want to help her, etc.

He sat next to the old woman and greeted her kindly.

Very ordinary way to catch up: "Mother-in-law, the weather is pretty good today."

He spoke for about five or six minutes before the old woman woke up as if she was in a dream and looked at Ye Zi, her wrinkled face was full of doubts. Then, she trembled with her dry hands and took off her thick reading glasses.

The light brown native dog shook its tail beside her and continued to sleep.

Ye Zi's heart sank when she saw her eyes.

The old woman stared at Ye Zi with wide eyes, her face full of panic, then trembled with her ugly fingers pointing at Ye Zi, opened her mouth, and yelled dryly: "You...you...you..."

Then he stood up with a crutch and was about to leave.

However, she did not leave, and she fell on the grass, rolling, rolling, rolling into the river...

The water splashed high, and the local dog screamed wildly.

Ye Zi looked at his hands blankly, unable to believe that he actually pushed the person down just now.

He ran over and wanted to pull the person up.

However, the river water was stained with blood. The old woman's forehead just hit the sharp hard rock. Blood gushed out. Her eyes were bulging, covered in blood, and she could not breathe.

Oh my God...

What exactly happened...

Why……

Why is this happening?!
