"The work-study alternation will end tomorrow, and I can finally go back to school."

Gu Yun, who was covered in dust and dust, had just walked out of the factory when he heard his classmates talking in the lounge. The resident teacher was also sitting there to encourage some classmates. He looked up dullly and saw that the bulletin board was about the recent news.

Some matters regarding the return to school of students who have switched from work to study.

Regarding returning to school, this was already expected and there was nothing surprising about it. However, the school originally said that the internship was for three months, but I didn't expect that it would be half a year.

From the beginning there were more than 300 students, to now, only about 40 people are still here. In the factory, the students who have been coming one after another in the past few months cannot stand it, and as soon as they leave, others also

They are all protesting.

Until now, I finally can't put it off any longer.

"Gu Yun, congratulations. You can finally go back to school. You don't have to work so hard anymore." When he sat down to eat, Uncle Wang, who was in the same position as Gu Yun, said congratulations. He knew the situation at Gu Yun's home at this time, a minor.

A student can stay in an adult's job for six months, and he and other workers admire him very much.

Gu Yun is 16 years old this year and is a student worker during the winter vacation in this small factory. He is actually just a temporary worker. He was born in a small village in City C.

Gu Yun does not have a happy family. His mother died of illness when he was young. However, his father has a decent job - sir, it is a very popular industry. No one in the ten miles and eight villages does not know his father's name.

, but in Gu Yun's impression, there were only two things in his father's life.

One is lying in the sun every day, and the other is running around with some strange people. It is common not to touch home for ten days and a half.

As for Gu Yun, he has never had normal communication with his father since he was a child.

On Gu Yun's tenth birthday, his father was basking leisurely in the sun, but a group of people pushed in the door. Surrounded by a group of suits and leather shoes, he left Gu Yun's sight. Only his back remained.

Then, not even a word was left.

This year, Gu Yun began to grow up, because his father also disappeared.

It is not that he has never resented his father, but no matter how much Gu Yun resented him, this was also his biological father, and he still did not give up the idea of ​​​​looking for his father.

The whole of China is so big. Although it is difficult to find a lost child, can a middle-aged man in his forties be abducted by others?

Publishing newspapers, missing person notices, and hot news all cost a lot of money.

Money is what Gu Yun needs most right now.

After eating, Gu Yun dragged his tired body back to the so-called staff dormitory, frowning lightly. The row of low and dilapidated small houses with more than ten square meters in front of him was where the school arranged for their students to live.

Naturally, this school will not arrange students to work in such a good environment in order to make money. It also has a reputation for being successful in adversity.

The dormitory is dilapidated and dilapidated. The room is always dark all year round. Whenever it is windy or rainy, the corners of the room are flooded with water and even the walls are covered with white dust.

It was already over December, and there was no warmth in the room. Cool breeze mixed with coldness kept blowing into the room. Air conditioning was a luxury here.

Gu Yun lay on his back on the bed. He had already adapted to the cold, but looking at the ceiling covered with spider webs, his mind felt like a mess.

The day of returning to school is imminent.

"When I return to school, I will start looking for my father in several other provinces. I don't believe that my father will leave my dear son alone. He must be delayed by something."

Gu Yun was thinking wildly in his mind, and his eyes were full of expectation, as if his father would appear in front of him in the next moment. For a long time, his eyes were full of confusion and helplessness. He didn't know when his life began to turn towards an inevitable event.

The losing bet is the same, and there is no hope of winning.

Gu Yun did not have a high level of education. When his father left him, his grades plummeted. In junior high school, he had no time to study in order to find his father. He spent almost every day reporting to dormitories, radio and television stations, and the police station.

Despite this, Gu Yun still did not give up the faint hope. After the final balance between the class teacher and him, Gu Yun did not accept the school's recommended place and instead went to a technical secondary school.

For others, this place is just a dawdle, but for Gu Yun it is different. He has a lot of time, can make extra money, go to his father, and doesn't have to worry about studying.

"Dad, I will definitely find you..." Gu Yun closed his eyes, wrapped the damp quilt again, and thought silently in his heart.

"Hoola! Hoola!"

The strong wind blew the trees outside, making loud roars. The noisy sound interrupted Gu Yun's thoughts. At this time, the temperature dropped again by many degrees.

"Damn it, I'm not letting you sleep well." Gu Yun muttered, took out his cell phone and tried to put on headphones to listen to music.

As soon as I took out the headphones, the roar of the wind outside became even more terrifying.

Click!

With an inconspicuous sound, a section of tree trunk hit Gu Yun's dilapidated roof directly from the wind. A hole appeared in an instant, and rainwater slowly dripped down the hole.

The room is small to begin with. In addition to a bed, there is a cabinet for storing clothes, and there is almost no place to stay.

By coincidence, the hole was hitting Gu Yun's feet. It was stormy outside, but it was raining constantly inside the house.

"Damn it, this broken house is leaking again!" Gu Yun muttered, reluctantly got up from the bed, picked up a piece of wood and a hammer, rummaged around in the cabinet a few times, found two or three nails, and looked at

The culprit looked away.

It was a tree trunk, not very big. It was just that these houses were a bit old, so the wood broke through the defense and hid in.

This kind of thing has obviously not happened once or twice. There is no way. What can we do about the school pit? If the roof is not repaired tonight, it may be flooded by rainwater.

This was not a troublesome matter, but my hands were a bit cold. Within five minutes, Gu Yun successfully nailed the wooden board up, but the quilt and other items were already damp, so it was obvious that he could not sleep.

Since I couldn't sleep, I had to do something. Anyway, I was going back to school in a few days. I took out the books from the cabinet that my father had been reading before leaving home and read them carefully.

Although the books were in seal script, Gu Yun still read them with gusto. Since his father left, he had a headache when reading other books, so he was very interested in reading these few books in his hand.

His father never let Gu Yun read his books when he was a child. Now that his father has left, he didn't expect that these books about "Mr." would still be opened in the end.

The wind and rain gradually subsided, the weather turned sunny, and it was rare to see sunshine again in the Jiangnan waterland.

Gu Yun was shivering, huddled in the corner of the bed with his book dog in his arms. Because of the workload and heavy burdens on his back, he looked a little pitiful now, but he didn't look as worried as he did during the day when he was sleeping soundly.

He slept until three o'clock in the afternoon, and then Gu Yun woke up. He had a very long dream, which was so perfect that he never wanted to wake up.

His mother did not die of illness, and his father did not disappear. The family of three lived happily in the countryside, without the hustle and bustle of big cities or the feasting night markets. Only the smoke from cooking fires filled the air with the sound of flutes.

But in the end, his mother suddenly died in front of Gu Yun, and his father was taken to a dark place by a group of people.

There was no light there, only darkness, but Gu Yun's eyes could see a pile of white matter there - bones. Yes, behind his father were endless white bones.

"Dad, Dad." Gu Yun was mumbling in his dream, but the middle-aged man who was trapped on the ground reacted. The corners of his lips moved slightly, but he didn't make any sound.

Gu Yun understood it and was awakened at the same time!

"Where is that place?" I looked around and found that I was still in this dilapidated room. I didn't know whether it was a dream or reality.

Whether what the father said in the end was true, and where the father was trapped, are all unknown.

I wiped off the cold sweat on my forehead, put away the precious book in my hand, washed myself, and then started to pack my things, getting ready to leave the factory.

Gu Yun tidied everything up in more than an hour. After tidying up the entire dormitory, he ate some instant noodles and began to read through the ancient books again.

"Hey, why is there blood here?" When Gu Yun took the book, there was blood dripping from the bottom of the wooden cabinet. He didn't know what was going on, but he accidentally opened the last layer of the wooden cabinet with a hammer.

Gu Yun usually didn't pay attention to this small cabinet. Today, the cabinet was still dripping with blood, which was a strange thing. Driven by curiosity, he pulled open the lower floor that could not be opened.

A piece of big red cloth was exposed inside, with a little cinnabar powder. It turned out that what was dripping was not blood, but cinnabar-red water that dripped after getting damp. It was only the visual deception that made people mistakenly think it was blood.

I don’t know how long it has been since this piece of big red cloth. The bright red color on it has almost disappeared, and it can only be seen that it is a red cloth.

I don’t know how long it has been since I left it here. Besides the red color, it has long been covered with a thick layer of dust.

Gu Yun's curiosity that had just disappeared was brought back in an instant. This is a student dormitory. Only students can live here and no one else lives here. Who left this thing behind?

When he got it to the bed, he saw that the red cloth had been frayed all around. He blew the dust off it. The red cloth was of very good quality and was not moldy. It was just frayed around the corners.

Gu Yun opened the red cloth and looked at it, but there were some old books inside. Gu Yun opened one casually, the pages were yellowed, and there were some beautiful deeds on it. Although many years had passed, the handwriting was still clearly visible.

"Since I am allowed to show preference to one person, I am willing to spend the rest of my life being generous."

Gu Yun was stunned when he saw this. This was obviously a love story written by a girl, and he was embarrassed to continue reading. Several books were romance novels, mixed with some love poems, etc., and there was no focus.

"The girl must have forgotten it here when she was switching between working and studying."

Gu Yun shook his head in disappointment, thinking it was some kind of treasure. He was about to put the book back in his hand, but it took too long, and he accidentally tore off a section of the foreskin on the book.
Chapter completed!
