    Game 3

    At one o’clock in the morning, Ancheng was still brightly lit, with constant traffic and pedestrians. Shen Luo walked to the Changjie Bridge. It was a very high bridge with a deep river. If he jumped, he would not even have a chance to regret it.

    Shen Luo turned his back to the front, slowly retreating and moving forward. Suddenly, a person broke into his sight. It was a girl. From the back, she looked like a young girl. She was very close to the railing. She just had to bend her waist slightly to dive in. Shen Luo couldn’t help but slow down. He kept observing the little girl. When he saw the little girl lowering her head, Shen Luo immediately stopped her.

    “Hello, little girl, can I borrow your cell phone?”

    The little girl froze when she heard his voice. She took out her cell phone and handed it over without asking any questions. Shen Luo did not answer it but continued: “It’s useless for you to give me your cell phone. I don’t know the password.”

    The little girl unlocked the phone and handed it to him again with great trust. Shen Luo still didn’t answer it but started chatting with her casually. They were standing at the intersection of two street lights. The light was very dark and not enough for both parties to see each other’s facial features clearly.

    “Are you so confident in giving me your phone?”

    “Then do you think there are more good people or more bad people in the world?”

    Shen Luo slowly moved to the position next to her, trying his best to calm her emotions.

    “How do you define a good person and a bad person? Those who are bad to you are not necessarily bad to others, and those who are good to you are not necessarily good to others. People have two sides. If two people stand side by side, they can only see one side.”

    “You’re right,” the girl put away her phone and laughed, “Then you lied to me, are you a good person or a bad person?”

    Shen Luo lay on the railing, his nose filled with the smell of lake water, and said, “Me? Why did I lie to you?”

    The girl pointed to the cell phone that lit up in Shen Luo’s pocket and said, “Then what is this?”

    “I just use bad people’s methods to do good things for people. At least my original intention is good.”

    The girl smiled and explained to him: “I’m not looking for a short-term life, I’m just too tired and came here to enjoy the wind. I really hope that a strong wind will blow me all over.”

    “Aren’t you afraid of blowing something off?”

    “Not afraid.”

    “Me too.”

    The girl looked at Shen Luo’s somewhat lonely face and said, “Are you a student of Ancheng No. 1 Middle School?”

    Shen Luo said: “Yes.”

    “Me too,” the girl said, continuing to look at the lake that shimmered like fish scales, “Maybe we have met before.”

    “Yeah, maybe,” Shen Luo took a deep breath and said, “But I probably can’t remember.”

    “My name is Jiang Wangshu. I look forward to seeing you in the new moon, and you feel comfortable in the clouds and clouds.” The girl said her name in a smooth tone, with a little expectation in her tone.

    “My name is Shen Luo, Luo from Luoyang.” Shen Luo also stood up straight, paused, and then said: “Your name is very beautiful, and it is shining there.”

    While talking, Shen Luo pointed his finger at the cold moon above his head, and then the two of them looked at his hand, their half-curved eyebrows reflecting the ripples of the lake. Jiang Wangshu was distracted for a while, until his eyes were filled with tears, he lowered his head and hid it.

    Jiang Wangshu looked at the moon in the sky and said, “Really? Someone said this before. Only if he calls this name will it not become vulgar.”

    “So, if you have any troubles, just blow the wind, because the wind brings good news.”

    “Yeah.”

    The two stood like this for ten minutes. Jiang Wangshu secretly tilted his head several times, and finally made up his mind and said, “Do you know about the recent competition in school?”

    Shen Luo nodded without making a sound.

    “Then…” Jiang Wangshu didn’t know how to ask, but thinking of how he stood on the stage shining before, he mustered up the courage to look at him secretly and asked, “Then will you go?”

    Shen Luo trembled again. He really didn’t know how to answer this question. He really wanted to go, but he really couldn’t go. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, for fear that he would not be able to suppress the feeling of loss if he opened his mouth.

    Hearing this answer, Jiang Wangshu frowned and quickly asked: “Why not go?”

    “Why do you ask that?” Shen Luo looked at his toes indifferently, a tear fell from his feet, and he looked at the lake with tearful eyes against the night sky.

    “I remember you,” Jiang Wangshu said this with some urgency. Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, he immediately explained, “Teacher Fei has great confidence in you and told us that as long as you are willing, the championship is just within your grasp.”

    After saying that, he shyly faced to the side, Shen Luo smiled comforted, and did not answer with the corner of his mouth twitching.

    It took a long time for Shen Luo to speak: “Let me take you back. We have classes tomorrow.”

    “Okay.”

    Along the way, the two walked side by side, the moon illuminated their way forward and wiped away their sorrow.
