It's August.
Drip drip -!
The cacophony of cicadas mingled with the sound of their horns echoed through the street, which seemed to twist as the sun baked the taupe asphalt.
On the side of the road, under the shade of a few clumps of trees, several young people were clustered together, smoking cigarettes and waiting for the traffic lights.Suddenly, a young man who was puffing away seemed to have noticed something. He let out a soft exclamation and his gaze landed on a certain spot at the street corner. His companion beside him asked. The young man named Arno stared blankly at the street corner. After a while, he spoke, "How do blind people cross the road? Generally speaking, when blind people go out, they are accompanied by someone or guided by a guide dog. If it's in a more modern city, there are also voice broadcasts for traffic lights on the roadside. If all else fails, perhaps they can move forward little by little relying on sounds and a white cane."What if there's no one to look after them, no guide dog, no voice broadcast, and even the white cane is being used to carry peanut oil? Do you think you're funny? The companion rolled his eyes and followed Arno's gaze. The next moment, he froze on the spot. At the opposite corner of the road, a teenager in a black short-sleeved shirt was standing there. His eyes were wrapped with several thick layers of black fabric, blocking all the light tightly. His left hand was carrying a cheap shopping bag full of vegetables, and his right hand was holding the white cane on his shoulder, as if carrying a carrying pole. At the end of the white cane, there was a large bucket of yellowish peanut oil. "Hey, look at that guy. How strange! With so much cloth covering his eyes, can he see the road?" "Didn't you see the white cane in his hand? He's a blind person, okay?" "In this day and age, blind people basically wear sunglasses. Who would wrap their eyes with fabric on a hot day? Aren't they afraid of feeling stuffy?" 1 was shining in the sunlight. With black fabric wrapped around the wood, the white cane on the shoulder, vegetables in the left hand, and oil in the right hand. This bizarre scene immediately attracted the attention of a large group of people around. Exactly. Besides, have you ever seen a blind person walk without using a white cane?The chirping of cicadas in summer couldn't drown out the whispering of the pedestrians around. They curiously sized up the teenager, whispering and discussing whether he was really blind or not. Meanwhile, they watched the flashing red light somewhat expectantly. Just then, a clear voice rang out beside the teenager. It was a little girl in school uniform, about twelve or thirteen years old. There were a few glistening beads of sweat on her cheeks, and her pair of big black eyes were looking at the teenager worriedly, purely and simply.The teenager was slightly stunned, turned his head towards the direction of the little girl, and a smile emerged at the corner of his mouth. He hung the bag carrying vegetables on his right hand, freed his left hand to wipe the sweat on his衣角, and gently held the little girl's palm. Click. The green light came on, the teenager took a step and walked with the little girl towards the opposite side of the road. The little girl was very nervous, looking left and right at the vehicles on both sides, with cautious and timid steps. As for the teenager, he walked very steadily. In the eyes of everyone, this scene was not like a kind girl leading a blind person across the road, but rather like an older brother leading a child across the road. The road was not wide. In just over ten seconds, the two reached the other side of the road. The teenager said thank you to the little girl and then walked towards the secluded alley without looking back. Seeing this scene, Arno said firmly, "He's not blind. He must be able to see." A young man behind Arno held his chin with one hand, seemed to be thinking, and then seemed to have thought of something and suddenly realized.He is cosplaying as the Blind Monk.A big slap landed neatly on the back of his head. Arno cursed and said, "Good-for-nothing. All you do every day is play games. Who the hell has nothing better to do and cosplays as a blind monk on the main road? Don't want to live?" After a pause of 2 seconds, Arno muttered in a low voice and added, "Arno, you still scold me. Shut up." Just as the two were bickering, the young man who had been silent on the side was watching the teenager's departing figure, and his eyebrows slightly wrinkled. "What's wrong?" Arno noticed his gaze. "I know. He knows. He's not wrong." The young man nodded. "When my cousin was still in primary school, I heard that a student in their school had an accident. There was a problem with his eyes and he could only wrap wood with black satin. It was said that there were also mental problems." Arno was stunned and carefully recalled the situation just now. "I don't think there's any problem. That was 10 years ago. Maybe the person has recovered. But at that time, the incident seemed quite big. The student dropped out of school within a few days. It was said that later he transferred to a special school for the blind." Just then, another person excitedly interjected.By the way, what kind of accident was it that could make someone blind and have mental problems? Could it be possession by evil spirits? I don't know. He paused. But I heard it was something even more outrageous. It was a poor soul. Arno sighed. What was his name?
In the evening glow, Lin Qiye pushed open the door. Almost instantly, the aroma of the dishes coming from inside the house filled his nostrils. He sniffed, swallowed saliva, and walked into the house carrying things. Creak. The old door made a shrill screech, masking the sound of stir-frying coming from the kitchen. A middle-aged woman pushed open the kitchen door. Seeing Lin Qiye carrying large and small bags, she exclaimed and hurriedly walked forward. Xiao Qi, why did you carry so many things back all at once?
The woman rubbed her hands on the apron and hurriedly helped Lin Qiye take the things, muttering incessantly.
Is this a big bucket of peanut oil? Are you using government subsidies again, kid
Squeak!
The old door made a piercing screech, masking the sound of cooking coming from the kitchen. A middle-aged woman pushed open the kitchen door and saw Lin Qiye carrying big and small bags. She exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly walked forward.
Auntie gently wiped the oil bucket with her hand, her expression a little heartbroken, and whispered to herself, "This big bucket of oil is still branded... It should cost a lot of money, right
Before Lin Qiye could say anything, Aunt suddenly reacted.
Auntie, the subsidies given by the government to disabled people are for living, and I use them to buy oil to make the most of everything.
"Lin Qiye smiled and said.
Nonsense, this money is kept for you to go to college. How can you use it recklessly? Let me tell you, Auntie's income from working is actually enough to support the three of us. Don't spend money recklessly yourself.
"
Okay, okay, it seems that there are still many good people in society... Have you ever thanked them properly
Thank you.
"Lin Qiye changed the topic and said, "Auntie, where is Ajin
No... how did you bring back so many things
Oh, I ran into a few kind-hearted people on the way who helped me bring them back.
"Lin Qiye said calmly.
...
Hello, I am a doctor from Sunshine Mental Hospital, and my surname is Li.
"
He is doing homework on the balcony... By the way, the doctor who conducts routine check ups at the psychiatric hospital this year has arrived and is resting in his room. You can go show the doctor to him, and Auntie will go cook first. I'll call you when it's ready.
"
Lin Qiye's steps paused slightly, then he turned around and walked towards the bedroom.
Dr. Han was already promoted to Vice President last year.
"Dr. Li smiled, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Lin Qiye nodded slightly and exclaimed.
As Lin Qiye pushed open the door and entered, the young man sitting on the small bench in the bedroom stood up and spoke gently. He wore a pair of big black framed glasses on his face, looking very smooth.
Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "Didn't Dr. Han always come before
Sorry, as I have just arrived, I am not very familiar with your situation yet. Let me briefly understand it first.
"Dr. Li spoke apologetically.
Lin Qiye nodded.
Also, Dr. Han is quite old and has excellent medical skills. It is not surprising that he has been promoted to vice president, so it is only natural for him to have a young doctor regularly review him.
Seeing Lin Qiye sit down, Dr. Li cleared his throat and took out a stack of case files from his bag.
I am seventeen years old this year.
yes.
"
My name is Lin Qiye
That's right.
"
Dr. Li pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you changed your name
... no, why do you ask that? "Lin Qiye was stunned.
Um... according to the case, you lost both eyes ten years ago and were sent to our hospital due to some issues
That's right.
"
Lin Qiye remained silent for a long time and shook his head, saying, "No... I have never changed my name. Before I was born, my parents gave me the name Lin Qiye.
"
That's really quite... cough cough, "Dr. Li realized halfway through his words that he wasn't very polite and promptly closed his mouth.
Dr. Li scratched his head with some embarrassment and said, 'Ahem... it seems like I overthinked it.'.
"
He reached out and pointed to the age on the medical record, then to these three words ten years ago. "Look, you went blind ten years ago, when you were exactly seven years old, and your name happened to be Lin Qiye, so I thought you changed your name after you went blind
Before Lin Qiye could speak, Dr. Li quickly added, "I didn't mean to offend you. Only by understanding the patients more can we better treat them. Of course, if you don't want to say anything, I won't force it.
"
Lin Qiye sat quietly there, under the black ribbon, his eyes seemingly fixed on Dr. Li.
Quite coincidental.
"Lin Qiye spoke calmly, 'It's indeed quite a coincidence.'.
"
Dr. Li felt a bit embarrassed, but he quickly changed the topic. "Hmm... it seems that the case did not provide a detailed account of the accident that caused your blindness and mental illness. If possible, could you tell me about it
No, no, no, don't mistake our relationship for that of a doctor and a patient. This is just a normal conversation between friends and won't reach that point.
"Dr. Li said half jokingly, 'Even if you tell me that you were dragged into the alchemy furnace by the Supreme Lord, I will believe it.'.
"
Lin Qiye remained silent for a moment and nodded slightly.
After a while, he spoke slowly:
There's nothing I can't say... it's just that you may not believe it, and you might even take me back to the mental hospital.
"
That night, I lay on the eaves of my hometown house and watched the moon.
"
What did you see? Moon Rabbit? "Dr. Li smiled.
When I was a child, I loved astronomy.
"
Well, then what
Lin Qiye shook his head, and his next words made Dr. Li's smile stiff on his face.
No, I saw an angel.
"Lin Qiye spoke seriously and gestured with both hands in front of him.
A blazing angel shrouded in golden radiance, with six white wings.
