  Xu Jiashen felt that he should drive away, but the figure seemed to have a special gravitational force on him that prevented him from moving his eyes away.

  Xu Jiashen stopped the car at the intersection, opened the door and walked out.

  There are no bright street lights in Caishikou. There are only a few street lights that are obviously old and yellowed over time, and they can only illuminate a small area.

  The ground was covered with dirty water and sticky mud, and vegetable leaves thrown on the ground and trampled to dust could be seen everywhere.

  Xu Jiashen approached the man little by little, and his pace slowed down involuntarily, as if he was afraid of disturbing him or scaring him away.

  When he got closer, less than two or three steps away from the man's back, Xu Jiashen could see clearly what he was doing while squatting on the ground.

  At first he thought the man was looking for something he had lost, but now Xu Jiashen saw clearly that the man was picking up vegetable leaves.

  In front of it was a pile of vegetable leaves.

  Xu Jiashen was stunned for a moment.

  He never thought that in this day and age there would still be people picking up rotten vegetable leaves at the entrance of the vegetable market, and the man looked like a young man from behind. Why didn't he go find a job and end up like this?

  Xu Jiashen was distracted and didn't notice the mineral water bottle in front of him, and stepped on it without noticing.

  The sound of plastic being squeezed is infinitely amplified in a quiet environment and is exceptionally clear.

  Xu Jiashen was startled himself and looked down to find that it was a plastic bottle.

  He didn't care and looked up again. The man was startled by the noise and had turned around.

  Xu Jiashen saw his face clearly.

  At this moment, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck him hard, and Xu Jiashen was stunned.

  Because this person was none other than Shen Gusi, whom he had been looking for for almost a month.

  It's Shen Gusi!

  Xu Jiashen widened his eyes in disbelief. He even thought that he had seen it wrong because he had been thinking about it day and night. How could the person in front of him be Shen Gusi?

Becoming too much.

  He had messy, dry hair, and his face was covered with beads of sweat and dust from somewhere, making him look dirty. His clothes were torn and old, as if they were picked up from a garbage dump. They could not keep out the cold in the deep winter. His pants were made of a thin layer of rags, and he was wearing summer slippers, revealing his toes that were frozen purple.

  How could this be Shen Gusi?

  But this is Shen Gusi.

  Xu Jiashen was not happy to find Shen Gusi. Seeing Shen Gusi like this, he felt so guilty that he wanted to tear him to pieces.

  "So so."

  He called his name, his voice trembling.

  But Shen Gusi just looked at him in confusion, as if he had never known him before. He glanced at Xu Jiashen's feet, as if he saw something, and walked towards Xu Jiashen.

  As soon as he approached, Xu Jiashen hugged him with trembling hands.

  The wind dried his eyes, leaving a red circle. Even through the clothes, he could feel that the person in his arms was so thin that he was just a bag of bones.
