Summer is Collapsing - Section 27: Collapsing, collapsing, collapsing (Part 1) Ke Ke is doing makeup in the bathroom. She hasn’t been out formally for a long time. Those rouge and lipstick are left unused by the mirror. Now she paints lips and eyebrows, and she does not miss any steps, and then puts the inside of the wardrobe in the summer I took out the clothes I was wearing one by one, tried them on, folded them again, and put them back, feeling very loose.And the weather in early September, there is no coolness outside, not even the wind, everything is still.In the evening, it was Dawei's performance at the U2 bar. She wanted to watch it with Xiaoqiao. They had to face some things together, even if it was very, very stupid.And the summer was coming to an end, and they were all exhausted, and sometimes they just wanted to sit and let the crowd pass by.

They met at the gate of Siji New Village. Xiaoqiao was wearing a black dress and red shoes. She was beautiful and could stand out wherever she stood. It was already night, with light air and light clouds floating around, just like the beginning of this summer. At that time, nothing happened, and everything was about to happen. There were a lot of people gathered in the U2 bar that night, and there was very little business going on. Some people stood at the door and smoked. They watched everyone who entered with strange eyes. When Coco and Xiaoqiao walked through the smoke , a whistle sounded behind him, and inside, the smell of beer and sweet music rushed towards his face, and the diffused lights made Coco see David at a glance. This person seemed to be a stranger already, although in these days she I have thought of his face many times, it is close at hand, but it is not the same as what I saw in front of me. Her eyes are a little wet, so she can only hold Xiaoqiao's hand tightly, and the cold air makes goose bumps on her arms , I can only see David walking back and forth on the stage, but I can't hear any sounds around me.

On the stage, David stood on the edge of the stage holding the microphone. He bent down and approached the girls below. Batch after batch came, low-waisted jeans, large pieces of bare backs, arms, they hugged at the very front, bobbing their heads desperately, and Coco had never watched David's performance calmly like this, in the past, All the girls in the bar seem to be her enemies, they are ready to rush up to seduce her little lover at any time, she is always nervous, wary of all faces, and closely watching anyone who appears around David A girl, always ready to step up and chase them away, their over-powdered faces, their glitter.But now Coco finally felt an unprecedented ease, Dawei jumped into the crowd below with an exaggerated gesture from the stage, screaming suddenly rang out.

Ke Ke turned her head in the rushing crowd, but she saw a familiar figure flashing past behind Xiao Qiao, and before she had time to see who it was, she suddenly disappeared. During the intermission of the performance, Ke Ke went to the bathroom. She squeezed through the crowded narrow aisle. There were many boys and girls with vague faces leaning side by side on the wall there and smoking. Suddenly she felt being hugged tightly from behind by someone, the smell of smoke and perfume mixed together, and after only an abrupt minute, her body reacted to the hug, and she almost stopped breathing , clinging tightly to his body, Dawei, who was about to become a stranger, hugged Keke from behind in the crowded aisle at this time, and said in her ear: "Baby, you are here." , I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, I was looking for you on stage just now.” Ke Ke suddenly felt sick again, she pushed him away violently, the crowd around him started a little commotion, David hugged her again and leaned against the wall , his face was so close to Coco, Coco could smell the familiar mixture of alcohol and sweat in his breath.At this time, the drummer on the stage called David's name to signal him to come over, so he quickly let go of Ke Ke and walked to the stage. Ke Ke walked into the bathroom and looked at his face in the mirror. Everything that happened just now became trance Get up, but why is her face still flushed and her eyes moist.

The two of them left early, and heard David behind him say: "The following is the song turning the head of the radio." Ke Ke thinks that the bar must be very quiet now, and all the people will stop quietly to listen to Dawei on the stage singing Radiohead. His voice may not be so sad, but it is enough to make everyone All the people are quiet, their sweaty backs and arms are tightly pressed together, the forest is very peaceful, all the birds have folded their wings, only the leaves of the trees are trembling, a distant buzzing The sound spread from under the eaves.And do they really know what they want? Can they really go out so bravely?

Cocoa and Xiaoqiao are sitting next to the chai pan wonton stand near the bar. The long wooden bench is loose, and the freshly cooked wontons are filled with green onion, sesame oil, egg skin and seaweed. The small wontons have transparent skins. , a pinch of minced meat.They continued to drink beer from the bar without speaking. Xiaoqiao suddenly said: "I don't love him at all, I don't like him, never have. Keke, I'm sorry, it's only you, I can lose my temper with you like this, hurt you mercilessly, only you, just like that It's the same as when you burned your arm with a cigarette butt, it's the same, will you forgive me?"

It's ridiculous, touching Xiaoqiao's arm, it's cool. At this time, suddenly there was a crashing sound and dull panting sound from the alley behind another U2 bar on the side, and a row of bicycles parked in the alley rumbled to the ground, making a huge noise in the dark night. sound.Ke Ke and Xiao Qiao turned their heads to look, and they couldn't see anything clearly in the dark alley, but their hearts were getting more and more tightly gripped, and they heard the stagnant water in the alley pond being splashed. Get up, and there are more and more heavy moans, mixed together, panting, getting up, bumping.Xiaoqiao suddenly grasped Ke Ke's hand tightly. Both of their hands became cold in this summer night. Holding tightly, Xiaoqiao said, "Why do I think that voice sounds like Shen Han's?" At this time, Ke Ke had already stood up, dragging Xiao Qiao to run towards the alley.

They stopped at the entrance of the alley, and a gray mouse slid past in front of them. I couldn't see people clearly, but I saw two people writhing on the ground, the sound of their shirts being torn, and when a truck drove past them, an orange street light above them suddenly lit up, and they At the same time, I saw that the person who was pressed down raised a frightened face, his face was bleeding, and his whole face had become bloody, it was Shen Han, it was Shen Han who raised his bloody face, He used his hands to cover the eyes that were fascinated by the street lights that suddenly turned on, and the person on top of him had his back to them. He had already beaten people crazy, and hit Shen Han's face with his elbow hysterically. He was crazy, and there was a slight roar in his throat.

Xiaoqiao screamed: "Stop, come on!" Her voice echoed in the lonely dead alley, and the U2 bar next door was still singing and dancing, and the aroma of beer gushed out from inside, but it was as quiet as An empty city, this city was finally empty at night, and Xiaoqiao kept screaming hoarsely until her voice suddenly became hoarse, at this time the man pressing on it touched a brick from the side, and he lifted the brick She was about to hit Shen Han's face, but Shen Han avoided it, and Xiaoqiao closed her eyes in horror. When she opened her eyes, the surroundings suddenly became abnormally quiet, and the whole city fell silent.

Ke Ke held Shen Han's folding knife with a dark red handle. The sheath of the knife had been opened, and she held it on the handle with trembling hands, and the entire blade had sunk into the man's body.When the man was about to throw a brick at Shen Han for the second time, Ke Ke ran towards him out of control. She had already held the knife tightly in her hand at some point, and when she woke up, Ke Ke ran towards him. By the time she was there, the knife had pierced through his muscles. In the tension and fear, she actually felt that everything was easy, so she pulled out the knife and inserted it again.Immediately all her strength was exhausted, and she didn't know how to escape. Her legs were already weak, and she knelt in a puddle,

No one spoke, and there was such a stalemate, only blood flowed slowly from the pulled out wound. Suddenly the man turned his head, but Keke wanted to run away but couldn’t stand up, she couldn’t stand up, she watched the man turn his head slowly, this time, she was hit completely, why, why didn’t she recognize Come out of him, just now he was hugging her in the crowded corridor filled with smoke, calling her baby, baby, softly in her ear.Ke Ke almost groaned, she summoned up all her courage to stand up, summoned up all her courage to look at the bloody David lying on the ground in front of her, lying beside Shen Han, lying in the pond Inside, he even waved his hand towards Ke Ke, but he seemed unable to lift his hand anymore. In the pond, there was a picture, stained with mud. In the picture, Ke Ke was sitting quietly on the sofa, smoking a cigarette. A cigarette, that was the first time she smoked, from which day Dawei carried this photo with him. "No!" Ke Ke looked at the handle of the knife stuck in Dawei's waist, the color was dim, "No!" She bent down, looked down at the lying on the ground, and tried to reach out to his Dawei, collapse, collapse, yes She inserted the knife into David's body, her past lover, her former lover, her lover. She turned around and ran towards the bright place, she saw Xiaoqiao's flustered face flashing past her.Tears poured down her face, these are the tears of several summers, how many years, how many past, those sycamore trees cast a huge shadow on her body, she saw the huge truck with orange headlights roaring Rounding the corner, she saw that the traffic lights were off, and only the yellow lights were flashing at the crossroads. She saw that the neon lights were all off in an instant, and she saw David wearing a T-shirt with a big red five-pointed star , falling from the stage to the crowd below, no one to catch him, no one, he's going to fall, he's going to die, die.She was a murderer, a real murderer, and a voice was calling louder and louder in her ears: Quick, quick, quick! All the summers in the past are coming, hurry up, Keke covers her ears.She stopped at an intersection, and the yellow lights reflected her face flickering on and off. She turned her head and saw the neon lights of the pizzeria suddenly dimmed again, and she was reflected in the huge transparent glass. Her afro, her skinny jeans, her dirty running shoes, and her empty hand could no longer hold a knife. Ke Ke killed her lover, she suddenly heard the wind sound only in the subway tunnel, a huge hollow wind sound, with the taste of the ground, her summer has fallen straight to the ground, soundless.
