Shen Yuluo

"If you are willing to pretend to squat down and tie your shoelaces, wait for me." This sentence stuck in Shen Yuluo's heart. He hid it for several years and could never say it to Zheng Luchen again. ………… Summer in Old Sophora City is always wrapped in the fine shade of old Sophora trees, and the evening breeze carries the fragrance of Sophora flowers through the bluestone lanes. The five children born in 2003 are the childhood bonds that bind this old street together. Narrow alleys, old trees, and mottled stone steps are filled with their shadows from childhood to adulthood. The five people with completely different personalities make up the most lively and lively scenery of the entire old street. Shen Yuluo was like a little squirrel that couldn't stop, bright and enthusiastic. She was the first person in the alley to rush out and call her friends to play. Even if his knees hurt when he fell while running, he would just rub the wounds and grin, without being squeamish at all. Zheng Luchen, who was always following her, looked completely opposite. She has a calm and reserved temperament, and is much more mature than her peers. She rarely smiles openly, but she leaves all her tenderness to Shen Yuluo. When she got into trouble or fell, others gathered around and booed her, but he quickly stepped forward and knelt down to steady her, gently patted the dust off her clothes with his fingertips, and repeated in a low voice: "Run slowly." There are three companions who grew up together. Fang Jiayuan is cheerful and outgoing, with a natural sense of responsibility, and follows Shen Yuluo to make a lot of noise all day long; Xiao Shanshan is gentle and shy, and does not like to fight, and most of the time stands quietly aside, watching everyone laughing and bowing her head slightly; Zheng Luchen's friend Wan Shiming is the pistachio of the team, a poor talker who loves to laugh, always takes the lead in organizing various games, and never stops making noises. From running around in crotchless pants to entering junior high school together, their years were both ordinary and hot. After school, we would huddle under the old locust tree and share a popsicle, chase and fight in the alley in the evening, and gather around the stone table to do homework on weekends. Wan Shiming and Fang Jiayuan bickered and joked with each other, Xiao Shanshan listened quietly, Shen Yuluo chattered and shared interesting stories, and Zheng Luchen always stayed quietly by the side, helping everyone solve problems and mediate conflicts. He was the existence that everyone subconsciously relied on. Shen Yuluo clung to him in everything, her heart and eyes were full of this young man who tolerated her. Everyone agreed that the five of them would always be together and would not be separated year after year. But an unexpected change shattered all stability. In midsummer on the second day of the lunar month, Laohaicheng experienced a rare heavy rain. The sun was still scorching during the day, but after nightfall, black clouds suddenly filled the sky of the old city, thunder shook the tile-roofed houses slightly, and pouring rain followed. The strong wind tore the branches and leaves of the old locust trees at the entrance of the alley, and the white rain curtain blocked all the fireworks in the streets. Every household closed its doors and windows and fell asleep. No one knows that this heavy rain that covers the sky hides a silent farewell. Zheng Luchen's family moved hurriedly overnight, leaving decisively and in a hurry. He didn't have time to say goodbye to Shen Yuluo, who was sleeping next door, and he didn't have time to say goodbye to his friend who had been with him for more than ten years. All the companionship and silent tenderness that we had together day and night in the past were all washed away and buried by the heavy rain all night long. All traces of his youth left on the old street disappeared overnight. One night of wind and rain, things changed and people changed. The next day it was bright and clear, the wind and rain had stopped completely, and the sky was clear and clear. The sunshine still covers the entire old street, and the old locust trees are still lush and leafy, but the familiar courtyard door next door is locked with a cold iron lock, and the courtyard is empty and deserted. I can no longer wait for the boy who will always be behind Shen Yuluo. Shen Yuluo froze in front of the courtyard door, feeling panicked for the first time. The four people ran all over the old street and searched every corner where they had stayed. No one answered the phone, and they couldn't find anything after asking around. Zheng Luchen completely disappeared from their world as if he had never appeared before. The once lively five-member team was missing its core part overnight. Year after year, the summer wind in Old Sophora City remains gentle, the leaves of Sophora japonica trees grow luxuriantly year after year, and the scenery of the old street remains unchanged. But among the group of young people who laughed wantonly and were inseparable, Zheng Luchen was forever missing. The remaining four people guarded the damp memories in the alleys, walking through familiar streets and alleys year after year, and could no longer find any trace of him.
