After thinking about it three times, I finally dialed the phone.The first time I picked up the receiver, I immediately put it down. The second and third times, I hung up after dialing the numbers of the first two local bureaus.For the fourth time, I stopped thinking, just like opening a combination lock, looking at the string of numbers on the roster, and pressing the buttons on the phone one by one.With a click, the lock opened. "I'm sorry to interrupt you suddenly. I want to meet you. I won't ask to go to your house. Can we meet somewhere outside?" I didn't even mention my name, so I finished speaking in one breath.But there was no answer from the microphone.

"Please." I said, "Please." Yuuki still didn't answer.I'm going to wait until I hear him say "yes".I heard a small sound on the other end of the phone, the sound of the alarm clock going off.Click, click, click, it sounded like footsteps constantly marching on a predestined road. "See you at the university tomorrow." Yuuki finally broke the long silence. "Anyway, I have to go to the school. The student department came to the notice, saying that if you really want to drop out of school, you need to confirm it in person." "See you at the playground?"

"OK." After hanging up the phone, I took a warm shower.I soaked my whole body in the bathtub, then closed my eyes tightly, and rubbed my face heavily.Once, twice, three times, I kept repeating. Save the child! At that time, it was my mother's cry for help that brought my hazy consciousness back to reality.I was surrounded in total darkness, and my body had just received a huge impact.Eager to call for help from my mother, I turned my head in the direction of the call.I saw a bright light in that direction.By this light, I saw a foot lying in front of my eyes.There was a shoe on that foot, and I knew it was my sister's foot.But my sister was covered by something, and I could only see her feet.I finally began to understand the danger of the situation before me.The car that our family of four were traveling in was involved in a car accident. The car was knocked over and overturned, and we were tightly pressed inside the upside-down body.The beam of light shone on my sister's feet, and I tried to move in the direction of the light, but I couldn't move at all.I want to call, I want to call "Mom" loudly, but I can't make a sound.

Quickly save the child!Kids in the car, please everyone! I heard my mother screaming again.At the other end of the light, I saw a man's face, a face I didn't recognize.The man seemed to be lying on the ground with his whole body. He looked around in the dark car, turned his head and screamed. "Really, there's another person in the car." There is one more person?My mind is spinning. What the man saw must be his sister who was closer to him.What about me? The man stretched out his hand, and it seemed that he was about to touch his sister's feet, but he was still a little away. The man turned his face to the other side and stretched his shoulders into the car.This hand, groping in the dark, looked like a very strange object.I think if I miss this hand, I will die.This is the last chance.I didn't think about my sister.I stretched out my hand as hard as I could, and at the moment when the man's hand was about to touch my sister's foot, my hand was inserted between the two.The man grabbed my wrist and yelled:

"I got it." I heard the man's shout, and I was pulled out of the car with a strong force. The man who pulled me out of the car hugged me and took me to my mother who was supported and sitting at a distance from the car.The mother seemed to be unable to move her legs, and she sat with difficulty, trying not to let the weight of her body rest on her right leg.The father was lying beside the mother, his eyes were closed tightly, and his whole body was motionless.In the middle of the road was the overturned car. All traffic stopped, and people jumped out of the car and came to my father, mother and me to help us.The ambulance hadn't arrived yet, and there were anxious reproaches all around.The car started to smoke.Danger, danger, someone yelled, and I hugged my mother tightly.Just then, there was a loud explosion behind me.When I looked back, the place where I was just now was already on fire.It must have been blown away by the huge impact of the explosion. A pair of red shoes - those were my sister's shoes, rolled to the side of the burning car.I hugged my mother even tighter.My mother took a deep breath and let out a speechless scream. Her long, miserable scream shook my eardrums strongly.
