Gu Fei sat behind the cashier, playing with his cell phone while watching Li Baoguo who had been on the third round in front of the shelves. Li Baoguo had no goal, so he just turned back and forth, looking at Gu Fei from time to time.

Li Baoguo has stole things more than once, so every time he comes, Gu Fei will stare at him directly, but now there is a sudden Jiang Cheng, and he is a little bit staring at him, either.

Li Baoguo is not a thief. Sometimes he wants to buy things after he has lost his money, so he will take credit first. The main force living here are poor people at the bottom of society. There are many things like doing credit, but when Li Baoguo is on credit, he always finds ways to steal some more...

"Dafei," Li Baoguo put his hand in his pocket in his big cotton coat and pulled it out. He went to the freezer to take a bag of fish balls and walked to the cashier, "This, I'll give you money in two days? Keep up with those pieces?"

"Yes, okay," Gu Fei took a notebook from the drawer and found the page of Li Baoguo, and said, "A bag of fish balls, two beefs, big ones..."

"What? I didn't want wine." Li Baoguo said a little embarrassedly.

"The bottle in your pocket," Gu Fei glanced at him, "Uncle Li, drink less, I can't remember anything."

"Oh, oh," Li Baoguo chuckled his mouth and slapped his pockets, "Yes, I'll get a sophomore... and get me a bag of Changbaishan for me."

Gu Fei turned his hand and took Changbai Mountain with ten yuan for him, and then wrote it down.

"The words are very well written," Li Baoguo came over and looked at him, "Hey, do you know my son?"

"Of course I know Li Hui." Gu Fei said.

"Not Li Hui, my youngest son, Chengcheng," Li Baoguo held his elbow on the cashier. "I just recognized him. I couldn't afford to give him away when I was a child... He was also in No. 4 Middle School, you know him."

"Well, I seem to know." Gu Fei nodded.

Li Baoguo laughed and said, "He studied very well, unlike Xiaohui. He is a top student. Do you know the top student? You little bastards are all poor students, right? My youngest son is a good student."

Gu Fei smiled: "Yes."

"Did you remember it? I'll ask Chengcheng to come here to you in a few days," Li Baoguo looked at the notebook again and pointed it with his finger, "His words must be better than you."

"…Yes." Gu Fei continued to nod.

After Li Baoguo went out in a relaxed mood, he looked down at his words on the notebook.

He was not sure about the other words, but Jiang Cheng's handwriting... can only be a hehehehe. It is definitely the kind of person who writes everything correctly and may be deducted points because the teacher is too ugly.

At about noon, my mother came in with a thermal lunch box: "I made some braised pork."

"Didn't go out today?" Gu Fei stood up and raised the small table next to him, "Have you eaten?"

"Where am I going out? Where else can I go!" My mother looked unhappy, "Who am I going out with will not make me lose half my life! I won't eat!"

"Can't you find someone who doesn't deserve a shot?" Gu Fei said.

"Do you have someone who doesn't deserve to be beaten? When will you see others' good?" My mother said dissatisfiedly, "You don't like this, you don't like that, your mother is a widow, right?"

"I saw that someone else's body was so good that the man was good." Gu Fei opened the lid of the lunch box, took the small lunch box, and pulled half of the braised pork chop inside.

"Where is Ermiao?" asked my mother.

"I've gone to play, just leave some for her," Gu Fei said, "I'll come back to eat when I'm hungry."

My mother sighed: "Amano is so, her personality is still like that... I see her head getting bigger, what should I do in the future."

"Then don't look at it." Gu Fei sat down and started eating.

"You go there today." My mother suddenly said as she looked at him.

"Where are you going?" Gu Fei ate a piece of meat. In fact, he knew what his mother was talking about.

"You don't remember what day today!" My mother slapped the table, "You don't remember how long your dad has been dead!"

"I've been dead for a long time," said Gu Fei.

My mother stared at him without saying a word. After a while, she pulled out a tissue and started to wipe her tears.

Gu Fei never understood what kind of feelings his mother had towards her husband. When people were alive, they quarreled every day, and after they quarreled, they begged God to let this man die early and become more reborn. After they died, they cried again.

Sometimes I cry sincerely and heartbroken.

"I went to the cemetery two days ago." Gu Fei said while eating.

"It's useless, I said it's useless to go to the cemetery!" My mother looked at him, "Where did you die? I've said so many times! Otherwise, I won't be able to live in peace! If you don't want to go to me myself!"

"I'll go in the afternoon." Gu Fei sighed.

"Burn some paper," my mother wiped her tears, "That idiot is so good at losing money. I guess she is begging for food there."

"You're in the store in the afternoon," Gu Fei said, "Don't touch the money. If you dare to touch the money, I told the King of Hell that all I burned were fake coins."

"...Heartless!" My mother glared at him.

The lake where my father died was quite far away. He was in a circle and said he wanted to build a small park but he always left it on the wasteland where no one moved, because there were no residential areas nearby and few people usually went there.

In the past two years, even the water is almost gone, and no one will go there. As soon as winter comes, people will simply be unable to see them.

If the lake had no water as it was now, if the water on the lake was frozen stronger that winter... my dad wouldn't have died.

but.

When he summarized Li Baoguo to Jiang Cheng, he was a little dazed. For a moment, he thought he was introducing his father to someone else.

Sometimes I dare not think about it carefully, and I dare not face the hope that he would die in my heart, and I dare not face his heart until now, I feel that if I do it again, he still hopes that the man will die.

His heart and this lake are places he doesn't want to get close to.

If my mother hadn't asked him to come here every year to burn paper, he would never have been close to here.

Turn left from home, walk around the small factory, and then walk forward without turning or forking the road. When you walk to the time when there is no way to go, you will arrive.

After getting around from a small factory, there was no one on the way, and my eyes were full of dilapidation and loneliness, as if I had arrived in another space.

Gu Fei pulled down his hat, covered his mask, and then took out his ear bag and put it on. Maybe it was because there was no building here, or maybe it was because he was afraid, he felt cold, and felt that the wind could penetrate into his body from anywhere, and then he exuded coldness layer by layer to the outside.

There is not much snow this year, but because no one cleans it, the ground is still covered with a layer. The subtle creaking sound makes people feel panicked when they step on it.

After walking for a while, he looked down at his feet and suddenly found a series of footprints on the ground.

He was stunned for a moment, turned around and took a look on the way back and forth. There were indeed two lines of footprints, some went in, but not those who went out.

Someone actually ran to the lake in this season.

He frowned.

He doesn't want to be seen by people when he comes to the lake to burn paper, and he doesn't want people to think that he feels guilty.

He had no guilt, all he had was fear.

Although the lake is not big, the wind blows a lot faster after walking to the lake, making people's eyes hurt.

He walked through the sparse woods and walked to the lake along the pile of weeds. His previous footprints disappeared into the broken ice stubble.

He looked around and saw no one there. He hesitated for a moment and stared at the lake where many places were already exposed, but no one was there.

Of course, even if someone goes over and breaks the ice and falls... now the lake cannot be drowned, so it can only freeze to death.

He found a tree, squatted down against the trunk, threw the bag in his hand to the ground, took out a cigarette and lit it.

He wanted to wait a little longer, but he didn't want to walk along the lake anymore. This location was a must-pass place for entry and exit. He wanted to wait until that person came out before starting to burn paper.

But after waiting for almost twenty minutes, he should be frozen after not calling him for a while, and no one came out.

"Fuck." He hesitated for a moment and pinched off the cigarette and picked up the bag.

I can only walk in a little further, one is to see who has passed, and the other is to find a more hidden place.

After walking in for hundreds of meters, Gu Fei heard a crisp sound coming from the middle of the lake.

It sounds like it is not the kind of ice surface that naturally cracks, but it seems like it is being stepped on or something hits the head.

He quickly turned around and looked into the middle of the lake, but he saw no one or anything else. Everything was still.

He suddenly felt a chill on his back, and turned his head suddenly and looked behind him.

No one, nothing…that looks suspicious.

Before his head could be turned back, another crisp sound came from the lake. He turned his head suddenly, feeling that his head was almost broken.

I still didn't see anything, but this time the sound was a little more dull than the previous one.

He slowly took a few steps back and leaned against a tree. Although he was a little naive, he really had to hold something real to make his heart feel more at ease.

This time he stared at the lake.

After only a few seconds, he saw a very small stone-like thing flying out of the dead grass by the lake about a hundred meters away from here and hit the ice.

This time the sound is no longer crisp, but a dull "puff".

Someone threw a stone?

So boring?

But the speed of the thing flying out is not that you can throw it out with your hands.

Gu Fei pulled his clothes and slowly leaned over in that direction.

After walking less than twenty meters, he saw a shaking figure in the concave place of the lake rock in front. Although there was almost one person tall dead grass blocking his sight, he could still tell that it was a person.

Not a ghost.

He was actually so frightened by a person who was probably overly bored throwing stones by the lake and playing with it.

Although he thought he was ridiculous, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
