In the late 1990s, an accident led to the tragic death of Law Yiu-fai, the most popular bassist of this legendary Hong Kong rock band. For a time, the music world was trembling with tremors, and fans burst into tears.
What he left for the others was endless grief, guilt and self-blame; as well as endless arguments, disagreements and quarrels.
Then, some people choose to leave, and some people choose to quit.
Li Jinxian was the one who left, or left without saying goodbye. She is not an insider and does not belong to the band. Perhaps now it seems that she is just a bystander and nothing more.
Ten years later, she returned to her hometown, but because they were about to separate, they each went solo.
At the farewell concert, she sat in the seat she had bought with her meager savings over the years, wearing a mask and crying throughout the performance.
The man was standing on the stage playing guitar and singing, only a dozen rows away from her.
After the performance, she returned to the hotel in disbelief. The text message alert on the phone suddenly rang. When I opened it, it was a strange number. The content was as short as only four words and one symbol——
"When will you leave Hong Kong?"
Li Jinxian looked at the time and replied: "Today."
