Chapter 61

He took the bowl and fed it very carefully, for fear of scalding me, he had to reach his mouth to blow every mouthful.I looked at this man melancholy, and suddenly felt that he was much older, with gray hair on his temples, his face was full of vicissitudes, and his expression was as tired as a traveler who had traveled a long distance... I think I have no reason to resist him. I have been by my side for several years and I owe him too much. After meeting the person I want to see, I should be able to go with him with peace of mind. If there is an end to the road I chose, then he will It should be my end, I don't care if the end is heaven or hell, even if it is a cemetery, I will recognize it, it's no different.

"Have you figured it out?" He asked after feeding the porridge.

I nodded wearily.

"Did you really promise to go to America with me after meeting him?"

I nodded again.

"Okay, it's settled." He held my face in the palm of his hand, brushed my disheveled hair, leaned down and kissed my forehead lightly, kissed again, and said softly and sadly, " It's this face, ever since I met you for the first time, I have never walked out of my dream, and in this life, I will not let you out of my dream."

Tears flowed silently down my cheeks.

"Why cry? Reluctant?"

"You are my destination, in fact, I knew it from the beginning." I replied.

"Then why have you rejected me until now?"

"The so-called destination is always known after a certain distance."

"I hope you think so, I hope you don't regard this destination as a grave..."

What a great man!

"Does he know we're here?" I changed the subject.

"do not know."

"That's good," I said with a reassuring nod. "I'm just looking at him and don't want to disturb him."

"I won't let you disturb him either." He frowned slightly, looking worried, "But I seem to be a little worried, worried that you will change your mind when you see him."

He said this, showing a very helpless look, "So now I doubt it. I sent you to see him. Is it my mistake? What if you refuse to go to the United States with me?"

I smiled weakly, "Are you so distrustful of me? Where can I go if I don't go to America with you? He has Milan by his side. For him, my existence is superfluous."

"I'm afraid that I will be the one who will be redundant." Qi Shuli sighed, leaned over to cover me with the quilt, and kissed my forehead again, "It's late, you can't be too tired, go to sleep, I will live next door to you, You can call me if you need anything."

It may be that I live in a foreign country and the environment is unfamiliar. I tossed and tossed on the "ground" until late at night. I sat up and lay down, and sat up again after lying down. I didn't turn on the light, and then I just walked around on the tatami mats barefoot. .Suddenly, there was a sound of piano in my ear.I made up my mind, and I was sure it was not a hallucination, but the sound of a piano came from outside the window.I ran over and opened the window, and the sound of the piano became more real, so familiar. Across the road, there was a light in a small Japanese-style building opposite, and the sound of the piano came from that small building.

I listened carefully, and it became more and more familiar. It wasn’t that the song was familiar, but that the feeling was familiar.Listen carefully, it is definitely not the CD played, but the sound of playing the piano. I have also learned the piano for more than a year, so I can tell the difference. It is so late, who is playing the piano?
At this time, I couldn't sleep at all. I put on my overcoat and wrapped my shawl, and tiptoed out of the room, out of the building, and walked straight across the road.The lights of the small building are on the first floor, and the door is locked. I put my body against the cold wall and listen. Suddenly, my hands and feet are cold, and the blood pours into my heart and freezes in an instant...Impossible, it cannot be him who plays the piano inside. , how could he live across from Qi Shuli?But besides him, who else in this world can play "Farewell Song" with the taste of soul, and it was this song when I first heard him play the piano!

When I woke up in the morning, it was almost ten o'clock. When I opened my eyes, I saw Qi Shuli sitting on the chair beside the bed, looking at me intently. The milk on the bedside was already cold.

"woke up?"

"woke up."

"Do you want to sleep a little longer? I see that you slept soundly. You must have been exhausted yesterday."

"Don't sleep anymore, I'm going to see him." As I said that, I stood up, thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "By the way, yesterday I seemed to hear someone playing the piano on the opposite side."

"Really, did you hear that?" He didn't seem surprised.

"It's played very well, very similar to... Geng Mochi's playing."

"It was he who played it."

"What?" I sat up on the tatami in shock, "What are you talking about, he...he lives across from you?"

"What are you making such a fuss about? Is it strange to live across from him?" He looked at me disapprovingly, "I live across from him in spring on the other side."

"You, you..."

"It's not what you think, I have business in Nagoya, I come here occasionally, I heard that he is here by accident, I know where he lives by accident, and I moved here by accident... You know that when I live in the spring of the other side, I live every day. I can hear him playing the piano, I like it very much, but suddenly I can’t hear him, I’m not used to it.”

"So you came after me?"

"What do you mean by chasing after me? I came here because of the name." He didn't change his expression and his heart beat, and his words were unreasonable.Poor Geng Mochi!
"Then does he know you live here?"

"I don't know." He replied honestly, "I've only been here twice and stayed for less than three days."

I turned around and ran to the locker room, changing clothes as fast as I could.

"I always thought I was a lunatic, but I didn't expect you to be crazier than me!" I hurried out of the dressing room, ran to the bathroom to wash, and finally ran to the dressing table like a gust of wind, "Last night I was wondering , who else in this world can play this piano sound except him, so it is really him, you damned, so you have been watching him..."

"No, Kao'er, I actually quite approve of him, so I want to be his neighbor." He looked aggrieved, and said plausibly, "Although we are rivals in love, the so-called heroes cherish heroes. Appreciate it, he himself told me that he is very lucky to have met me, otherwise he would never be able to live today because of his illness, I gave him the courage to live."

"Then he should be very grateful to you?"

"Indeed." Qi Shuli was triumphant, and finally said, "It's getting late, it's time for us to visit him. I've lived in this house for so long, and I've never visited my old neighbor."

We walked all the way through.Followers and translators follow.

The weather is fine, and the spring sun shines warmly on every corner of Nagoya. We came here by coincidence. March is the season when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. You can see crimson cherry blossoms fluttering with the wind everywhere, and the flowers are fading and flying. Pedestrians walking on the street are like Bathing in a rain of cherry blossoms, this scene is very similar to the ending scene of the Korean movie "The Passing of Spring". Lee Young-ae is also walking on the street full of cherry blossoms like this. It is picturesque and beautiful.

The courtyard door of the small building opposite was locked, Qi Shuli went to ring the doorbell, the door was opened by a neat middle-aged woman wearing a white apron, she should be a servant, she bowed to us politely, the translator asked her if Geng Mochi was at home , she chattered a lot in Japanese, the interpreter nodded, turned to tell us that Mr. Geng went out, and seemed to go for a walk in a nearby park.

"Maybe it's the park next to Nagoya Castle." Qi Shuli said.

The translator said: "Probably."

"Then let's go to the park." Qi Shuli picked me up and walked forward.

"By car or on foot?" the interpreter asked.

"It's just across the street, let's walk."

So we walked to the park again.I kept a cold face and didn't speak along the way.Qi Shuli was in a good mood, and he had nothing to say. He introduced the human geography of Nagoya to me. He said that after being destroyed by the Allied bombs in World War II, Nagoya has now developed into the fourth largest city in Japan and is the largest city in Japan. One of the most important economic cities in Japan, Nagoya is famous in history for the birth of three of the most important historical figures: Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.It was these three who unified Japan in the early seventeenth century.It's not what I'm interested in.Of course Qi Shuli knew what I wanted to know, and he talked about his old neighbor Geng Mochi. He said that Geng Mochi was a visiting professor at a university in Nagoya during his recuperation period, teaching piano.

"He's a professor?" I was quite surprised.

"Yes, to be a professor." Qi Shuli chuckled.

"why are you laughing?"

"I'm not laughing at anything."

"Do you think it's strange for him to be a professor?"

"Don't you find it strange?"

"I feel weird too."

While we were talking, we came to a group of ancient buildings. The tall city walls were resplendent and resplendent. Could this be the famous Nagoya Castle?Qi Shuli confirmed my guess, pointed to the buildings and said to me: "That is the famous Nagoya Castle, do you know where its most famous place is, the golden animal head tiles adorning the roof of the castle tower are the most famous, you Look there... In 1612, Tokugawa Ieyasu, the Edo shogun at the time, built Nagoya Castle. Until the fall of the political reform shogunate in 1867, it was the residence of the Owari Tokugawa family, one of the three Tokugawa families. Extremely luxurious... Afterwards, it was attacked by an air raid in World War II in 1945, and most of it was burned down. In 1959, the castle tower was rebuilt and changed to a reinforced concrete building with one basement and seven floors above ground. Since then, the castle tower has been It is the symbol of Nagoya.”

"You know quite a lot."

"I told you, I have business here, of course I understand it very well."

"Then you know him well." I turned to look at him.

"Of course," Qi Shuli was not shy at all, "I know his every move like the back of his hand, and he might treat me the same way."

"You are really the same kind." I said mockingly, and after thinking about it, I asked again, "Is Milan with him?"

"No, they've been separated. Milan even found a Japanese lover."

"Nonsense, impossible!"

"Why, don't you believe that your old lover will be cuckolded?" Qi Shuli looked at me and sneered, "Let me tell you, the little Japanese that Milan is looking for is Geng Mochi's personal assistant..."

"Stop it!" I interrupted him.

Qi Shuli ignored it and continued: "At first I thought that Milan really liked Geng Mochi and wanted to marry him, but later I found out that she didn't really like Geng Mochi, but just liked Geng Mochi's huge amount of money, and the money was exchanged for her. She is enjoying the world's top fashion week in Paris at the moment, this woman is extravagant and greedy, I really don't know how Geng Mochi married her as his wife." At the end, he added, " Fortunately, he married her as his wife..."

Talking Room Park has arrived.

"I'll take you here, you go in by yourself," Qi Shuli suddenly became very serious, and said seriously, "Kao'er, think about it, what you promised me, don't forget everything when you see him. "

I bowed my head and said nothing.

"If you have met him, you will go to the United States with me. I want you to live happily from now on, at least live a healthier life, instead of dying of illness like you are now." He patted me on the shoulder, "Go in , Remember to say hello to my old neighbor, remember... our promise."

"Don't worry, I won't die inside. Even if I don't live long, I will live longer than you love me." This is a line in "La Traviata".

Qi Shuli laughed and nodded, "It's good that you know that I love you."

I went in alone.As soon as I entered, I found that the park was quite big, and there were many people. There was a lake inside, and the cherry blossom trees were reflected on the lake, which was pink. From a distance, it looked like the shy face of a girl. The lake shore was covered with petals, like a huge pink carpet. .I walked back and forth among the cherry blossom trees, and after a while, my body and head were covered with petals.Such a beautiful weather, such a beautiful rain of cherry blossoms, but I have no time to appreciate, looking around, searching for the familiar figure in the crowd coming and going, maybe I was too nervous, as if my heart was suddenly blocked by something, and Sore and swollen, I hope it's not tears; I don't want to cry when I see him, even if he doesn't give me hope anymore, I can't express my sadness in front of him.

He is a person who likes to be quiet. I guessed that he might be hiding in some secluded corner, as if there was some power guiding him, I walked towards a wood far away from the lake, and then... who is that? !God!I saw him sitting alone on a lounge chair under a cherry blossom tree, wearing a light beige sweater and white trousers, holding a book in his hand, pink petals fluttering down on him, and he ignored it completely, All his energy was concentrated on that book, so that when I approached step by step, he didn't notice it.

At this moment, my eyes and hearts are all about the man under the cherry blossom tree. He lowered his head, and I couldn’t see his face clearly, but the melancholy and loneliness he endured still spread to my heart after a distance of ten meters. My man, do you know that I came across the ocean to see you, just to take a look at you!Although I don't know if you will give me hope again, Mochi, I have a hope in my heart that may seem humble to you. I hope you will take a good look at me. Thousands of words are not as deep as yours a glance...

God, why did I start crying again, I can’t control myself like this all the time, I can only cover my mouth and try my best to keep myself from making a sound, but I don’t have the strength to call out his name even after a distance of ten meters. I stared at him obsessively, standing there motionless like a tree, as if there was an abyss in between, I couldn’t get over it, and he couldn’t get over it either, my eyes were blurred, my chest felt a pain again, I Coughed out a sound.

He raised his head when he heard the sound——

As if I were a ghost, he squinted his eyes, his pupils shrank and then dilated, dilated and then shrunk, his expression was surprised, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't confirm that I was standing in front of him alone for a long time.

Finally he stood up slowly, the book in his hand fell to the ground, watching him approaching step by step, my heart stopped beating, I felt like I was going to die, this once tall and handsome man who is now suffering from illness is like a mountain Slowly moved towards me, eyes met, he was the first to speak.

"Is that you, Cole?"

"Is that you, Mochi?"
