    ? When I woke up from sleep again, what was shining on my face was already the morning sunshine of Guangzhou.

    It simultaneously illuminates the Haizhu Bridge and the large garden under the bridge.

    I guess, it was first photographed on the sculpture facing the bridge.  When I opened my eyes, I saw him.  He has a dry food bag, a shell gun, and a bullet belt on his body.

    I've seen him in war movies.

    He came out of the movie and turned into a stone man, a sculpture, with his head held high, a rifle in his right hand, and flowers in his left hand. He will always be on the north bank of the Pearl River, looking at us with a smile.

    As long as I turned my head, I saw him.  His heroic figure and smile on his face make people feel very happy and uplifting.

    The sun makes all the scenery come alive, and the flowers and plants are so fresh, as if they have just grown.

    I forgot how I got under the bridge.

    I walked up and down the streets of Humen, but I couldn't find Beichuan for most of the day. Until night, I had to take a bus back to Guangzhou.  After getting off the bus, I wandered around for a long time.  The scenery at night is completely different from that during the day, both strange and fresh.  Till I was exhausted at last, I pulled some paper pads under my body under a big bridge pier, and fell asleep soundly.

    I didn't really wake up when the sun was shining on my face.  I heard the sounds of the city again, they were like river water, after a night of sleep, they swelled vigorously again!  The sounds from all directions converged into a deep, thick hum of the rushing river.

    In the morning, the sound touched me cheerfully.  I stretched my numb leg and breathed in the morning air, which dried quickly and smelled of sunshine.  I fell asleep again.

    In fact, it was impossible for me to fall asleep completely.  I have been reminiscing about what I saw when I opened my eyes just now, the smile of the stone sculpture, the smile that made people suddenly enlightened.  The daytime is so bright, the whole world is red on my eyelids.  But I don't know how to start the day.

    Half asleep and half awake, I heard footsteps walking around me, and I didn't bother to pay attention.

    The man stopped next to me, squatted down, and put his hand in my face.  It suddenly dawned on me that he wanted to see if I was alive.  I opened my eyes a little and saw a pair of dirty, cracked leather shoes.  Looking up along the leather shoes, it is a dusty wage earner in jeans.  After he tried my snort, he took mineral water from his luggage, supported my head, and fed me water.  I wanted to joke with him, so I pretended to be unconscious.  The sweet water flowed down my dry and constricted throat and flowed into the dull chest cavity, and I immediately felt comfortable all over my body.  I was about to open my eyes and talk to him, and he had put me down.  After that, he rummaged through the luggage, fumbled for a while, put down something, and left.  I opened my eyes, turned around, and saw several packs of red, green and green instant noodles, as well as half a bottle of mineral water I had left.

    When I sat up, he had already walked onto the bridge facing the sun.  Judging from his back, he should be a middle-aged man, thin, with a huge nylon woven bag hanging on one shoulder, and holding the bag tightly with both hands, making his steps uneven and his body crooked.

    Tears welled up in my eyes, and I shouted hoarsely: "Dad¡ª¡ª"

    "You saw me cry. I don't usually cry. I just had a friend, and he left me again. He'll always think, I'm a liar, a thief! What if I can't find my dad?"

    He didn't speak.  I'm pretty sure he was looking at me.  Did he just smile at me, or did he smile like this all the time?  I blinked and blinked, and paused for a moment when I closed my eyes.  I closed my eyes and thought he closed them too; and when I opened them he smiled again.

    That's true.

    "Is it true that I have to introduce myself first before you are willing to express?"

    For my question, he obviously reacted, as if he had thought about it.

    "My name is Zhou Xin. However, I can only say so much. Anyway, I can only tell you this."

    He thought about it again.  I saw him nod his head slightly, serious.  I like this.  A no-nonsense attitude, which I like.  That's what I crave from all people, no-nonsense, earnest, but not aloof.  He is exactly that.

    "What's your name?"

    He grinned.  Obviously, I already knew what he was, but I still asked.

    I smiled: "Can I just call you Stone, can I call you like that?"

    He nodded, almost imperceptibly, but I felt it.

    "Okay, Stone?Do you know each other?  "

    I quickly tried to put it off: "No, no, no I don't know anyone. I just thought, the police must have caught the worst one, don't you?"

    "Yeah. It's a pity that one escaped. The villain is too cunning!"

    "Can you help me find a copy of yesterday's newspaper? This is a big event, and everyone should care about it, right?"

    "Adults care more about this. You"

    "Hey, it's nothing. I just want to know the details. The process must be like acting in a movie, don't you think?"

    "Sure!" He became excited, "Wait!"

    He ran to the opposite freezer and bought two ice creams.  He handed one to me: "Come, treat yourself!"

    "Thanks!"

    Really delicious!  I carefully licked the chocolate-flavored ice cream, for fear that it would disappear all at once.

    "My name is A Xing, the star of the stars. I graduated from elementary school and entered junior high school after the summer vacation. What about you?"

    "Ime too."

    "what's your name?"

    "Sorry, I can't tell you."

    "Why?"

    "Because, so, I can't tell you."

    "Wow, it's so mysterious!"

    After the ice cream is finished, we should be friends.  A fat middle-aged woman appeared on the street, with dark skin and wearing a loose dress. She walked a little swayingly, and shouted to this side from a long distance: "Ah Xing, Xing, who are you talking to?"

    Ah Xing immediately told me to leave: "My mother forbids me to play with bad boys."

    "I'm not a bad boy."

    "Look at your clothes, dress hurry up, she will become a bitch."

    I stepped back and asked him: "Then, are you still here tomorrow? I'll come to you, okay?"

    "Okay, I do my homework in the morning and I'm here in the afternoon. Go, she saw you!"
