Chapter 17 017 Candle
Chapter 17 017 Candle
After the earthquake, there was a wave of earthquake relief across the country. There were countless stories of tears and grief. Countless people lost everything overnight, and life and death were separated in a flash.
The school cafeteria is the only public area that is open. Where the TV has become an information platform, most people are still in shock and have a bad appetite. Even after three days, they still can't calm down the fear. If you don't face life and death, you can't understand The meaning of a lifetime.
Everyone was no longer in the mood to talk and laugh, and the rescue situation in the hardest-hit area was shown on the TV screen. There was a little girl with mud all over her face, crying, crying from the beginning to the end. The child who was just eight years old, the whole family died, and died in an instant. Died while she was still laughing with others.
She has only one expression, crying.
The leaders of the country surrounded her, comforted her, and hugged her. The girl didn't know what they said, and she could only cry.
The tears were like a sea that couldn't be drained. The little girl sank in those tears, and the students watching TV were also crying and mourning. The whole world was crying loudly because of this disaster.
Life is fragile! None of us know what we do with our fragile years.
On the day of the earthquake, Chen Ming rode an electric bike to Bincheng overnight. His girlfriend went to Bincheng from Wubei for some unknown reason, and was trapped there during the earthquake.
Tian Dong packed up Chen Ming's shoebox of candles, and even put the broken ones in it. He knew that it was Chen Ming's energy.
Wubei is not actually a disaster area. The whole building did not collapse, but it also received disaster relief items from all over the world. There are also many students in the school whose homes are in the earthquake outbreak zone. From this perspective, it is also a disaster area.
They slept on the playground all day during those few days, and they really couldn't sleep well. Tian Dong lay on the ground in his sleeping bag and couldn't sleep at all.
Without the Internet, without alcohol, there is only sadness left in this world.
Aftershocks continued, but the worst disaster was over. The school determined that there was no major damage to the teaching building and decided to resume classes.
The communication was restored, and Tian Dong called Chen Ming to come back.
The next day Chen Ming returned to Wubei City with his girlfriend, Yao Meiling.
The relationship between the two has changed, not because Yao Meiling has changed, but because Chen Ming's previous obedience has no effect anymore. In those few days, the normally energetic fat man was extremely decadent.
"What's the matter with you?" Tian Dong asked, and bought two bottles of Xiao Er outside to drink with Chen Ming.
Chen Ming drank more than him. This was the first time Chen Ming drank with Tian Dong. Because his girlfriend didn't like it, he never drank.
"Her ex-boyfriend is looking for her." Chen Ming said, "That's my former buddy!"
"It's fair, you dug someone's corner, now it's normal for him to dig back when he comes back." Tian Dong said with a smile.
"It's not fair. He dumped Meiling back then, and he treated Meiling badly."
"Chen Ming...you are just a transitional period."
Chen Ming's fat hands have returned to normal in this season, without frostbite. He is holding the wine bottle, panting, and the breath he exhales has a tingling sensation.
"I'm not!" He yelled suddenly, dropped the bottle, gathered all his strength, and ran away, disappearing in this scarred street.
Tian Dong held the wine bottle and placed it in the corner of his eyes. Through the surface of the glass bottle, he looked at the fat figure, twisting and crooked, gradually running away, and then gradually running back, standing at the bus stop at the street corner, talking on the phone, Nodding and bowing.
Tian Dong got up and followed. Just after walking a few steps, the oncoming bus stopped at the platform, and Yao Meiling got off from it with an irritable face.
Yao Meiling had a resolute expression. Facing Chen Ming, she spoke very quickly, like firing bullets, and said a lot of cruel words. Tian Dong had heard those words before.
"Stop pestering me, okay? Does a big man have any backbone?"
"You're not at a disadvantage, what are you doing pestering me?"
"Are you a man or not! I can't see you like this."
"Why cry? It will only make me look down on you even more."
Yao Meiling finally lost her patience, she turned around and got into the car.
Chen Ming chased the car with tears streaming down his face.
Tian Dong threw the wine bottle and chased after him, he accompanied the fat man who had no self-respect, he didn't persuade a word, no one knew better than him, the persuasion at this time was all in vain.He remembered that like Yao Meiling, he used to regard Dong Hai as a transitional period. He wondered if Dong Hai had experienced the same experience that Chen Ming was experiencing now. At that time, what Sun Fang scolded him at that time became the truth.
After chasing for a long distance, even though the shadow of the car had long since disappeared, they chased for several streets, and Chen Ming knew where the car was going.
In the end, Chen Ming collapsed on the road, and even though his body lost the ability to move, he opened his mouth and cried loudly.
There are no people on the street at night, the whole city is mourning, and the air is full of sadness.
Tian Dong pulled Chen Ming up, they were like two leaves of duckweed, wandering aimlessly in the streets of the city, on the way, they walked to the music square, they were attracted by the light.
In the center of the square, someone organized mourning activities, and countless white candles were lit in the shape of a heart, with 4.17 written in the middle.
The participants bowed their heads and looked down. They looked benevolent. They didn't know anyone at first. They clasped their hands on their chests, closed their eyes and mourned silently, with kindness and blessings.
Tian Dong pushed Chen Ming in front of the candlelight, instead of praying, he sat by the candlelight.
No one is asking them to have to pray because they have enough sad expressions!
Chen Ming's tears broke everyone's heart, they acquiesced, and lit more candles, leaving enough warmth for this fat man they didn't know.
Tian Dong said: "The candle flame is like a human heart. When it is lit, it will come alive. This is the truth told to me by a fat man!" He looked at the candle flame and smiled softly.
Chen Ming looked at him and cried even harder, as if he had exhausted all the joys and sorrows.
After that night, the grief didn't stop.
Chen Ming was also a paranoid person, so he continued to pester Yao Meiling and went to Yao Meiling's residence to stay overnight.
Tian Dong didn't stop him, and he didn't even give any extra persuasion. Only after suffering all the pain, and only when all the sense organs were shattered into powder, could the grief stop.
In half a month, Chen Ming's obsession finally stopped. This was a tragic scar in his life, and this scar would easily change.
Tian Dong has a strong rival, and he is about to give up the title of Internet Cafe All-night King.
Chen Ming's game is really smooth, and only Tian Dong can see that he is not indulging, but just escaping, just trying to empty out the thoughts in his mind, find a world that doesn't exist, and bury his easily shaky heart .
"Chen Ming, go to work. You can also play power leveling, and you can earn some living expenses." Tian Dong said that, watching the fat man next to him operate superbly on the keyboard.
"What occupation?" Chen Ming didn't know what Tian Dong was talking about, he was only getting close to Tian Dong now.
"E-sports career."
The so-called talent is applicable to all fields, and Tian Dong feels that this fat man who has never played games before belongs to this category.
"Are you kidding? My parents are waiting for me to find a business unit after graduating from college." After finishing the kill, Chen Ming lighted a cigarette easily.
Tian Dong chuckled: "Public institutions? Are you sure you're still able to squeeze in there? Or, you still have the mentality to live a life of self-improvement? If that's the case, of course it's best."
Chen Ming didn't speak, and took a long breath of smoke, which hovered over his head in a disorderly manner.
Tian Dong: "Try it, create a transition period for yourself, even if you achieve nothing, it's better than rotten in an Internet cafe now."
It turned out that the transition period was like this. In the second semester, Tian Dong looked like two different people because of this reason.
Chen Ming sighed and looked at Tian Dong: "You rarely persuade me, Tian Dong, I'm already rotten from the inside out... I'm a typical left-behind child, isolated from my parents, I don't know what a family is... …Mei Ling and I have known each other since elementary school, I have always thought that Mei Ling is a perfect woman, I like her, I put all my feelings on her..."
That night in the Internet cafe, Chen Ming talked about his past like that for the first time since he broke up with him.Time flies, he said until dawn.
"I want to fill the whole village's feasts when I get married...and have a baby with Meiling, I will give everything to him, watch cartoons with my children every day, cook with my wife..."
"Do you want to get married?" Chen Ming asked midway.
Tian Dong chuckled, he often had this expression: "I will never have it! Chen Ming, I am not in the same world as you."
"Why not? We're all rotten."
"That's it."
"Ha ha……"
Because of the same pain, the two laughed wildly.
When the sky is about to dawn, the sky is black and blue, which is called dawn. It is a bit cold at this time, which makes the whole early summer season cool.
On Chen Ming's computer screen, a private message was sent from the game interface.
"Hi, my name is Vision, how old are you?"
Tian Dong took a look and raised his eyebrows at Chen Ming: "Not bad, there is a girl hooking up!"
Chen Ming replied amusedly: "I don't date online!"
-_-||: "No, I work in a professional power leveling studio. After seeing your record and operation, it is very good. Are you interested in coming to the studio for power leveling?"
Chen Ming was taken aback, and immediately replied viciously: "Damn liar, I have no money!"
-_-#: "Magli Studio, I will give you a phone number and an email address. You can check it right away when you are at the computer! You can call me now and talk to me."
Soon, the contact information and information broke out there. Tian Dong helped to check on the Internet, and also contacted me by phone, and even confirmed the studio.
Even though it was absurd, Tian Dong agreed to accompany Chen Ming to take a look, since he had nothing to do. With a nonchalant attitude, he changed the environment by the way, and changed the way of corruption.
Homeless people are not afraid of being cheated at all. They already have nothing to lose.
It's not that they feel sorry for each other, they just share loneliness.
