All of this is fake, Yu Zhi thought on the bed after everyone left.

Maybe there was some misunderstanding, maybe that person was not killed by the senior brother?

She starts to lie to herself, but even that is hard to convince.

Silent tears fell, followed by wailing, she was about to experience the saddest parting in the world like she had just lost her mother when she was a child.

Beiping is so big that it can accommodate hundreds of thousands of families at the same time.

Beiping is also very small, so small that it is impossible to leave a place for myself and my senior brother, and it is so small that the senior brother was found early the next morning.

In fact, it shouldn't be discovered. Yu Zhi thought carefully the night before, if the senior brother hides on the mountain in the south, and then sneaks away, there is still a chance.

But who would have thought of that person, he didn't hide at all.

Early the next morning, he took a candy sold by Uncle Wang's house a few streets away, and walked into the gate of Yu Mansion openly. As soon as he entered Yu Zhi's courtyard, he was held down by the police officers who had been guarding early.

Hearing the movement, the little girl frantically knocked on her door, and the lock seemed to feel her despair, and it broke open.

There was a panic outside the courtyard, the police officers shouting everywhere formed a stark contrast to the quiet people in the center.

Seeing the girl who just came out of the room, Yu Rui's eyes seemed to light up, filled with tenderness, he smiled and said, "Come Zhizhi, senior brother has something for you."

In the past, every time Yu Zhi finished practicing, he would say this sentence to herself. At that time, she only felt extremely happy, but now when she heard this sentence, she was left with countless desolations.

She ran towards her senior brother at high speed, her body was overwhelmed by the exhaustion of several days in a row, the road that was obviously not very far seemed to be very long at this moment.

She remembered that she had walked for a long time, and even fell several times in the middle, but when she looked up, she would see the man still looking at her with a smile, as if encouraging.

When Yu Zhi arrived in front of him, the policeman next to him couldn't wait any longer and clamored to arrest him.

It was the first time the man struggled after being arrested. He was so strong that even three or four people couldn't pull him away.

Yu Rui broke free, but did not run away, he took a few steps forward, to the front of the girl.

He raised his hand to gently wipe away the tears from her face, then handed the bought candy to her, and coaxed: "Zhi Zhi doesn't cry, senior brother will come as soon as he goes."

Once he left, he would say goodbye to life and death, but let him say it lightly.

Yu Zhi exerted all her strength to stare at the person in front of her with wide eyes, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance in her heart, and never forget it.

This man, he can obviously escape to a far away place, and he will no longer be subject to these oppressive rules.

But he didn't. Compared with dying, not seeing his little girl again is obviously a more terrible thing.

So he chose to find a place to wash off all the filth on his body after fleeing for his life all night, clean and bring a gift, and come...to see her for the last time.

Tell her about your care, your nostalgia, and your love that is about to overflow.

In front of him, the bustle returned to calm, and there was no man's figure anymore, but that smile always existed in his mind.

Everything in the world seemed to disappear, leaving only the little girl who cried until she had no tears, and the deformed candy in her hands.

From then on, there was no such person as Yu Rui in Beiping.

Sometimes casual chats among the attendants would reach Yu Zhi's ears. They either described how fierce the execution scene was that day, or expressed their regret for the man who died young.

But so what, the Sri Lankan man is gone, and no amount of talking can bring it back.

Every time Yu Zhi heard it, she would be taken aback for a while, and it would take a long time before she could recover from the emptiness.

She began to force herself to forget everything that had happened, to forget the little things of the past thirteen years, and in the end she lived like a walking dead.

Will cry, will laugh, but will not pay attention.

Since then, Yu Tai has not restricted her freedom, and even the theater troupe allowed her to enter again, but Yu Zhi never stepped out of the gate of Yu Mansion and imprisoned herself here.

Finally, one month later, June 24th was also Yu Rui's birthday.

The kitchen was empty in the afternoon, and the little girl was sitting by the stove, leaning against it, and slowly resting the knife on her wrist.

With force, blood rushed out, staining the plain white dress red.

Frame by frame came to mind, all of which were Yu Rui, her senior brother.

The light disappeared from her eyes, but the little girl had a relaxed smile that she hadn't seen for a long time. She whispered: "Senior brother, if you don't come back, then Zhizhi will come to you."

On June 24th, the 31st year of the Republic of China, Yu Zhi of the Yu family committed suicide in the kitchen. She was only 18 years old, and was later listed as one of the four great actresses by later generations, which is regrettable.

At the end of the story, Mr. Lin seemed to be still immersed in the story passed down orally when he was young, and he seemed to be dreaming back to the only scene where he saw Yu Zhi on the stage for a long time.

"Now there are only a handful of people who know Yu Zhi, that's why I, the old man, reacted so strongly when I saw the little girl from just now. They look so similar. Not only the name is the same, but even the looks... like a It’s like it’s carved out of a mold.” He paused for a moment, then said in relief: “Maybe I was only 5 years old at the time, and my memory is vague. There is no such thing as reincarnation in this world. Hey, Shi Rui, I know why you all came here. Come, but now I seldom participate in these things, and my big apprentice will contact you in the future, after all, it will be your young people's world."

Shi Rui didn't react at all. The old man thought he was also caught in the story just now, so he patted the other person's shoulder and said, "Old man, I have to take a nap. I won't entertain you when I get older."

The man sat alone on the spot, like a stone sculpture, not moving for a long time.

A handful of cold water hit her face, and Yu Zhi forced herself to wake up from her memories.

The girl's eyes and nose were all red, and her eyes were even a little confused.

The feeling of being torn apart from the fake peace and showing the wounds is not very pleasant, at least now she does not have the ability to continue talking to Mr. Lin.

Taking a deep breath, he was about to take out his mobile phone to explain to Shi Rui that he was not feeling well, when he saw a message ten minutes ago that he had not checked in the future.

[SR: Waiting for you outside the bathroom door. 】

Yu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal about herself, she opened the door.

In the next second, he stared directly at the man who had been waiting for a long time.

Looking at ten thousand years, this is a reunion that has spanned more than 80 years, and it is a stare at each other after more than 30,000 days.

At that moment, she seemed to be back in the courtyard again, back to the day when her senior brother handed her candy.

Shi Rui also seemed to be a little at a loss, the high EQ in the past suddenly disappeared without a trace.

There was silence all around, the man opened his lips, and finally said with determination: "Zhizhi... am I Yu Rui?"
