Backstreet is a block to the south of the Special Human Resources Bureau. There are many shopping malls related to dining, entertainment and shopping. It is a place for students and employees to relax. Because it is equipped with facilities by the unit, it is different from ordinary shopping malls. During class hours, the back streets are not open to the outside world.

It is the end of August, the unit has not yet started the training course, Lu Ren does not know that this so-called backstreet is not open. He turned on the phone, and a blue light dot appeared and flickered on his electronic map.

This is the tracking system activated by Secretary Song for his device, and the constantly moving blue dot is the real-time location of his monitoring target, You You.

"It's really troublesome." These words can be regarded as Lu Ren's catch phrase.

As a person with a low sense of existence, Lu Ren maintains a laissez-faire attitude of "don't care about yourself, hang up high" for most things.

He likes to be alone, likes to be quiet, and doesn't like to be noisy. This is the character that he developed when he was in the orphanage. Since he was young, he didn't like to build too close relationships with people around him.

The nurses in the orphanage and the parents who want to adopt children think that the young Lu Ren is autistic, and they often start to become compassionate after only a few exchanges. They touched Lu Ren’s little thorny head and sighed and sighed. After a while, under the leadership of the dean, he walked to the other lively and well-behaved children in the garden.

Even if he was used as a control group for other friends, Lu Ren didn't feel sad because he didn't care about adoption. Anyway, there is food to eat, bed to sleep, and school to go to in the orphanage. He has completely adapted to this dark and narrow world.

Lu Ren knows that he has no desire for superheroes like those in Marvel movies to save the world.

He is just an insignificant ordinary person, or the kind of unenterprising one.

"Wait a minute." According to the instructions of the electronic map, Lu Ren quickly found the very conspicuous mixed-race youth by the lake.

"Sign a name here." Lu Ren called the other party, took out the return-to-school form folded into tofu from his pocket, and handed it over.

"Doctor, what is this?" The young man took the form.

"Don't you—can't you read?" Lu Ren's head ached faintly.

"Um... I don't recognize it, because I'm a foreigner, doctor." Youyou touched her chin and smiled, "Don't I look like it?"

"Of course it looks like it." Lu Ren was a little skeptical, "but, it's true, your Chinese civilization clearly said it was sly, you don't have any foreign flavor at all."

"Being able to speak doesn't mean that you can write." You You shrugged, "The text here is so abstract, it's not ordinary difficult to learn."

"Well, listening to this is an application for restoring your status as a training student. The unit requires you to sign your name here." Lu Ren sighed and accepted You You's reason, pointing to the sign of the form, " Do you know how to write your Chinese name? If you really can’t sign in English, you can..."

After hearing the answer for a long time, Lu Ren raised his eyes and found that You You were not looking at the form at all, and those pale blue eyes like the sea were staring at his side face intently.

"Are you listening to me?" Lu Ren frowned.

The young man gave a soft "um", then somehow, he silently covered his face and turned away, avoiding Lu Ren's probing eyes.

"What...what are you doing?" Lu Ren couldn't understand the weird behavior of the youth, and began to wonder if there was a generation gap in communication with the other party.

"I don't want to sign." The youth's tone suddenly changed.

"Why?" Lu was puzzled.

"Because everyone doesn't want me to come back for training. And Dr. Lu... you actually don't want to enlighten dangerous people like me." The young man muttered.

Having been straightforward enough to see through his mind by the youth, Lu Ren was too embarrassed to admit that he had only a little professional ethics left in his heart that he had to say something against his heart to refute.

"You think too much. There is no such thing. Both classmates and doctors really hope that you will return to training—"

"Really?" The young man suddenly turned around, his eyes full of unbelief.

"Of course... it's true." Lu Ren had a vague premonition and bit his head.

"Then go shopping with me." The young man raised his mouth and smiled triumphantly like a fox. "It proves that the doctor really wants me to go back for training."

***

"After buying things, will you obediently sign the form?" Lu Ren pushed the metal trolley that was about to fall apart, looking at the young people who were standing in the toilet area hesitantly. They have been standing here for almost ten minutes. .

"Of course, this is our agreement." You Youzheng took two toothpaste boxes and compared them carefully. "Doctor, do you think the flavor of mint or green tea is good?"

"The taste of toothpaste is almost the same. Besides, isn't this something you use? We've wasted a lot of time." Lu Ren looked helpless, wondering why You You asked for his opinion. He felt that his illocutionary meaning was already obvious, but it might be because the other party was really a foreigner, and he didn't even notice his unpleasant mood right now.

You You was silent for a moment: "If the doctor wants to end it soon, please help me choose."

Lu Ren glanced roughly at the many shelves, and said in a perfunctory tone: "That peach blossom is better."

"Sweet peach blossom flavor? The doctor's choice was really unexpected. I thought you would prefer a refreshing flavor." You You picked up the peach blossom toothpaste from the shelf and raised his eyebrows slightly, and said thoughtfully.

"My preference has nothing to do with you. If you don't like it, you can change to another one without referring to what I said." Lu Ren pushed the cart alone and left the shelf full of daily necessities.

Lu Ren was in a bad mood. This is a very rare situation. He is a person who hardly loses his temper, but somehow just now, it may be that the young man's tone of teasing is too annoying, and he has a feeling of being maliciously teased.

In short, borrowing from the old ancestor's theory, from the first meeting, he had a premonition that he and this extraordinary returning student were absolutely incompatible.

"Doctor, why did you suddenly walk so fast, don't wait for me—" Youyou's voice came from behind.

Lu Ren remained silent, ignored the young man, and pushed the car to the place of payment. Probably because of his enthusiasm, his throat was so dry, he took a can of blue Coke from the freezer and put it on the payment counter.

"Is the doctor thirsty? I'll ask the doctor to drink it." It seemed that Lu Ren's tone was not very good, and the voice of You You who was standing next to him softened a lot.

"No." Lu Ren took out two coins directly from his pocket, "I don't want to owe you."

"It's okay, I'm willing to ask the doctor to drink—"

"I don't want to." Lu Ren took a deep breath, interrupting the young man's unfinished words and went straight to the mall. He no longer wanted to be led by the nose, "You You, don’t forget. , Today is our first meeting."

"How about the first meeting?" You You quickly followed after paying the money.

"So, we are not familiar at all. It makes no difference to say that it is a stranger." Lu Ren turned and stared at the beautiful young man carrying a plastic bag in front of him, and said indifferently, "Even if you are a foreigner, you should behave when you come here. Know how to score."

The inexplicable atmosphere between the two was broken, as if someone scratched the blackboard with their nails, making a sore sound.

In the brief silence, Lu Ren witnessed the pleasing smile on the young man's face disappearing, and the corners of his mouth were squeezed into a cold line with difficulty. So far, he still doesn't like this troublesome returning student in his heart, but at this moment he suddenly feels that he is speaking too much.

"What is proper measure? I don't understand. However, since the doctor said this, he hates me just like everyone else, right?" You You lowered his head, and his brown hair covered his expression.

Lu Ren opened his mouth, even though it was far from annoying, he did not explain in the end.

"Needless to say the doctor, I know." You You raised her head expressionlessly, and the gaze looking at Lu Ren was no longer shining, and became plain and unfamiliar. "If you say this, I will pay attention to it in the future."

"It's fine if you understand." Lu Ren opened the can to hide his embarrassment. Seeing that they had nothing to say, he turned around and wanted to leave, but the other party raised his arm to stop him.

Lu Ren raised his eyelids and clenched his fists slightly, thinking that the other party was finally about to show his true colors.

"Doctor, don't you want me to sign the form?" You You's voice was calm, "Give me a pen."

"Are you willing to sign now?"

"Um."

Lu Ren was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the other party's attitude to become so cooperative, and took out the form and black pen that he carried with him.

"I am not very proficient in writing. There is no table here. Can I borrow the doctor's shoulder?" You You opened the form and took off the pen cap.

There is no table, you can write on the wall. Lu Ren thought to himself, and finally nodded and acquiesced to the youth to walk behind him.

Lu Ren stood stiffly on the spot, he could feel You You spread the form on his back, and a warm hand gently supporting his shoulder.

Why is it so slow? Does it take so long to sign two characters? Lu couldn't get used to the intimate touch of others, and swallowed uncomfortably. When he was thinking about it, something sharp and cold suddenly slipped past the skin of his neck like water.

"What did you do! What the hell?" Out of self-defense instinct, Lu Ren backhanded the people behind him severely.

"Listen to the doctor, sign it." The young man hit the hard white wall with his back, and slowly fell to the ground, his throat let out a low smile.

Yes, it was indeed a signature, but he signed his name on Lu Ren's neck.

"Neurotic." Lu Ren couldn't bear it completely. He looked at the unidentified figure in the corner of his eyes, his face was cold.

He didn't give the other side more gazes anymore, and left without turning back, clutching his neck.
