Chapter 50:

Opening his eyes again, Linyou tasted the rich floral fragrance mixed with blood in her mouth.
In order to let her sleep longer, Xiao Xiao didn't know how much pill was taken from Xiaohong. When she woke up this time, her injuries were not good, but she was much better than she was almost crippled.
Linyou touched his shoulder and neck, and with the ability to heal itself, the bite marks there had healed and disappeared.
Looking around, the fire burned out long ago. In the dark tree hole, knowing that no one would answer, Linyou still raised his voice and shouted: "Xiao Xiao--"
Her voice echoed lonely in the empty giant tree.
"..."
The right hand was still in a state of uneasiness. Linyou held up the tree wall next to him with his left hand, and when he touched something at his foot, it made a weak cry.
It is Jinbao.
It becomes the size that can be held in one hand, and the wound has been bandaged. Linyou carefully put it in her pocket, took the weapon beside her and walked out of the tree hole. It was white outside. She was struck by the bright light and raised her hand to block her eyes.
The branches were tossed, and the fine snow of the branches rustled.
Linyou heard the sound of birds fluttering, she adjusted to the strong light outside, Xiaoqing and Xiaobai wrapped in cold wind and landed in front of her, two pairs of dark eyes seemed to be worried.
"Ga--"
"quack--"
They cried softly.
Linyou opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
She has an unremarkable sense of unreality, which seems to be out of place with the entire world, and finally just waves them silently and walks down the roots of the roots.
The two birds did not keep up.
The wind stopped and the snow stopped. In the cold winter, Linyou walked in the deep snow, as if everything except him was still.
She thought of Xiao Xiaoxue's long hair. In the sun, it was whiter and more clean and flawless white than real snow. It was not as cold as winter snow, but it was just cool, and it slipped in the hand as if it was flowing. Spring water.
Heavy snow will cover up many traces.
But if you look carefully, you can also find the trail of two zombie kings fighting. Linyou followed this trail until the clue was completely disconnected, and could not find the direction for the next step.
She stood in a world wrapped in silver, calmly dazed.
Where are you going?
do not know.
Bright to the dazzling sunlight, the second sound appeared in the sky, breaking the silence at the moment: "Sister Yuzu!"
Linyou raised his head dullly, and Ginkgo gathered her black wings and fell into her arms.
She was not standing steadily and fell back directly into the snow. Ginkgo raised her face with a cry and her eyes were red: "I finally found you. Sister Yuzu hasn't come back for a long time. Hasn't she ran'Yan'?"
"..."
The girl's body was cold and cold, and her face was blushing out of cold. She didn't care if she didn't get Linyou's answer. After looking around, she asked confusedly, "What about shrimp?"
There was stark doubt in her golden eyes.
But this look seemed to restore Lin Yu's pain at this moment.
The pain of the split involved the bruise, and her fingers twitched, curling up suddenly, opening her mouth but unable to say a word, only a painful gasp.
Ginkgo panicly called her name.
Linyou could not hear her voice, nor could she see clearly the scene in front of her. She gritted her teeth tightly, her warm tears vented out, dripping onto the snow, melting a small dent.
……it hurts.
The pain from the chest is like a part of the heart that has been cut off.
"She..." Linyou took Bai Guo's arm, and even his lips were pale without blood, and said every word was like a knife blade across his throat. "Teacher Xiao Xiao... she has gone afar."
"Eh? Sister Yuzu...?"
-Trust me and wait for me to come back.
The last words left seemed to echo in my ears.
"Yes... That's right." Linyou pulled the corner of her lips, barely showing a smile-like expression to Binguo. "Trust her and wait for her to come back. So... let's go back first."
"Uh, uh..." Ginkgo looked at her, and she said.
Linyou tried to smile again, this time it seemed to succeed, and Ginguo's expression was a little more reassuring.
Lin You wanted to pick her up and walked down, only to find her body was overwhelmed when she bent down. She could only hold her hand and let her fly.
They walked back halfway, and encountered the lucky money wandering outside, and Linyou put ginkgo on its back. When I slowly walked home, the horizon was stained with Luoxia.
This is already the second day after New Year's Eve.
It turned out that this was only the next day.
After having dinner easily, I found someone to find tired Ginkgo and went back to bed.
After finishing the dishes, Linyou walked past the wind chimes under the gallery. The fire in the living room was quietly burning, but the familiar scene was empty.
She stood at the door for a long while.
In the bedroom, Ginkgo and Zhaocai slept soundly.
On the desk is Xiao Xiao's diary, Linyou turned to the last page. After they made the calendar, Xiao Xiao's diary also had a date. On December 31, 2000, the last line of her writing was:
‘Next year, we will also keep the year with Yuzu. ’
Lin Yu picked up the pen, and then wrote: January 2, 01...
How about this day? No matter what it was, she was reluctant to recall and record, and at last she could only write a word.
January 2, 01

Lin You studied Xiao Xiao and began to write a diary.

It didn't seem to see you a bit lost.
Even it is thinking about you, when will you come back?
March 16, 01

July 28, 01
I brought Guoguo to a family trip in S City. You are not here this year. There are aggressive mutants everywhere on the road. Fortunately, although it is very troublesome, it is still within the scope of solving.
The biggest headache is still lucky, Xiaoqing Xiaobai's cub is also very uneasy...
When will you come back to control them?
Speaking of which, there are mutants near my house that will attack me. Lucky they are still with me, but I occasionally think, are you really gone?
If there is no fruit, I will not be able to stick to this time. Did you take this into consideration before leaving me at ease?
But Xiao Xiao, the ship that would sink at any time could not bear the lives of others. Because Xiao Xiao is a trustworthy person, I believe you will honor your promises and wait until now.
However, I often feel very tired. What if I cannot support the day you return?
Come back to me quickly.
...
The tide on the beach surged gently, and Linyou dropped his pen at the seaside at night.
Sun and moon circulate, winter comes spring.
After they returned home from the city of S, in the third spring in this yard, the trees were decorated with dotted white flowers, and Xiaohong woke up from hibernation.
Linyou carried a watering can to water the potted plants in the courtyard that Xiao Xiao left behind.
She doesn't take care of plants, and her memory is not good. She can't take care of every pot like Xiao Xiao, so she can just water it. Fortunately, the vitality of these potted plants is very tenacious, and only a few pots have been fed to death this year.
The wind chimes flicked under the eaves.
Ginkgo flew in from outside the courtyard and threw a bag of bamboo shoots on the ground. His body was covered with mud, but his eyes were bright, and he circled around Linyou.
"Sister Yuzu, Sister Yuzu--"
The little girl was more and more skinned by Lucky and Xiaohong. Lin You looked at her helplessly: "Why?"
Ginkgo held bamboo leaves in her hand and showed her: "Sister Yuzu ~ blow it again, like last time."
Linyou was so entangled by her that she took two blows, and the song was not in tune or tune, but Bai Guo was very happy to hear it and learned to blow like her, but could not make a sound.
"I can't learn..." Bai Guo pouted, and said, "Sister Yuzu is so good."
Lin You said: "You Xiao Xiao blowing this is only powerful."
After a lapse of one year, she calmly mentioned the name, even if there was a pain in her heart, there was no trace on her face.
Binguo didn't notice her complicated feelings, sitting on the eaves and shaking her legs: "When will the shrimp come back?"
As soon as her voice fell, three sounds of "Dong DongDong" came from the closed courtyard door. Linyou shook the watering can in his hand and poured three times more water on the pot in front of him.
Ginkgo blinked and smiled: "Shrimp!"
Her first reaction was to flap her wings and fly towards the door, but Linyou held the pot with her pot still in place. She flew halfway and stopped, looking blankly between Linyou and the courtyard door.
"...Sister Yuzu?"
Linyou turned slowly.
Probably because I didn't wait for someone to open the door. After a while, people outside knocked a second time, tapping three times on the door, and the standard was polite.
As the old thing repeated, Linyou remembered that spring night two years ago.
She unknowingly laughed, and shed tears unconsciously, wiped away the tears on her face, and ran to the door of the courtyard to open the door--
Outside the door is a tall and thin woman, holding a white five-petal flower in her hand, the calyx is deep red. Her shirt and sports trousers were covered with a white coat, long snow-colored hair spread over her shoulders, the mask blocked the lower half of her face, and her white eyes had clear ice blue eyes.
The eyes bent slightly, and then she took off her mask to reveal a beautiful and soft face.
She said, "Can I stay?"
"……of course."
Linyou stepped forward and hugged the man tightly, feeling that the familiar cool body temperature wrapped herself, and then confirmed that this was not a dream, and raised her face to show a tearful smile:
"Welcome back, Xiao Xiao."
