Chapter 2 The Angel On The Moon

The room fell into a brief silence.

A few seconds later, Dr. Li came back to his senses, “Angel?”

“right.”

“What was he doing?”

“Doing nothing, He was like a golden sculpture, sitting in the middle of a huge moon crater, looking up at the earth, as if he was… Watching?”

Dr. Li rubbed the corners of his eyes, and said helplessly, “Qiye, do you know how far the moon is from the earth?”

“Nearly 400,000 kilometres.” Lin Qiye said calmly.

“Nearly 400,000 kilometres.” Dr. Li repeated, “Even with the most advanced astronomical telescope, you can barely see the surface of the moon, but when you were seven years old, you were just lying on the eaves of your hometown, and you saw an angel on the moon with the naked eye?”

“I didn’t see him.” Lin Qiye said quietly, “It was he who saw me, I just raised my head, my eyes seemed to be dragged by him through the space, and looked at him.”

“So, he forced you?”

“Sort of, otherwise how would I see the surface of the moon? I don’t have clairvoyance.”

“But if there is an angel on the moon, why hasn’t it been discovered by humans for so many years?”

“I don’t know.” Lin Qiye shook his head, “Perhaps that angel doesn’t want to be observed, let alone… do humans really understand the moon?”

Lin Qiye said very sincerely, so sincerely that Dr. Li immediately wanted to call a car to drag him back to the mental hospital.

After all, Dr. Li is a doctor who specialises in treating mental illness. He has seen many kinds of mental illnesses. He has summed up a rule in his medical career. The more serious nonsense and it sounds reasonable, the more the sickness is not light.

“What about your eyes? What’s the matter?”

Lin Qiye stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the black satin on his eyes. There was no emotion in his words, “That day, I looked at Him for a moment, and then… I became blind.”

Dr. Li opened his mouth, looked down at the case in his hand, and fell silent.

In the column on the cause of blindness, only four words were written.

— The reason is unknown.

So… what happened back then?

Could it be that as Lin Qiye said, he saw the angel on the moon? How else to explain sudden blindness?

This thought only appeared for a moment, and was directly killed by Dr. Li.

It’s so dangerous, he was almost led astray by a mental patient!

He could almost imagine how exciting the expressions of the doctors were when Lin Qiye, who was blind ten years ago, said what he just said in front of the doctors.

It’s no wonder that the child was forcibly admitted to the hospital. No matter how you look at it, what he said was what a mental patient would say.

There are quite a few people like this in the yard. Some claim to be the reincarnation of Sun Monkey and hang on the horizontal bar in a daze every day. Some think they are a coat rack standing in the room all night. Some see that everyone is like their husbands, and they secretly rub other people’s asses at every turn…

Well, the last patient was a forty-year-old greasy uncle.

“The things you said were all in the past, what about now? What do you think about this matter?” Dr. Li adjusted his mood and continued to review the process.

“It’s all a delusion.” Lin Qiye said calmly, “That day, I just accidentally rolled off the eaves and hit my head on the ground. As for the eyes, it may be that a certain nerve was damaged, so I lost my sight.”

He didn’t know how many times he had said this, skillfully and calmly.

Dr. Li raised his eyebrows, wrote something in the medical record, and then chatted with Lin Qiye about daily life. After about twenty minutes, he looked at the time and stood up with a smile.

“Okay, let’s go here first for the re-examination. There is nothing wrong with your illness. I hope you can adjust your mentality and live a good life.” Doctor Li shook hands with Lin Qiye and said encouragingly.

Lin Qiye smiled and nodded slightly.

“Hey, Dr. Li, please stay and have a meal.” Seeing Dr. Li leave, the aunt enthusiastically persuades him to stay.

“No, no, I have another patient to see, so I won’t bother.”

Dr. Li politely said goodbye to his aunt, then opened the door and left.

The moment the door closed, Lin Qiye’s smile disappeared, as if it had never existed.

“Delusion… is it…” he muttered to himself.

“Brother, it’s time to eat!” Cousin Yang Jin walked out of the kitchen with the dishes and shouted.

Yang Jin is the son of his aunt, who is four years younger than Lin Qiye. He just entered junior high school. Since Lin Qiye’s parents disappeared and stayed at his aunt’s house, the two have grown up together, and their relationship is closer than brothers.

“Here we come.” Lin Qiye responded.

Just as Lin Qiye sat down at the small dining table, a sudden warmth came from the soles of his feet, he was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Cousin Yang Jin glanced under the table, laughed and cursed:

“Well, you little black man, you are usually lazy and motionless, but when it’s time to eat, you come faster than anyone else.”

A little black mangy dog ​​poked its head out from under the table, with its tongue lolling out of its teeth, exhaling heat, and came to Lin Qiye’s side, and licked his feet again, his face full of flattery.

Three people, one dog, this is a home.

Simple, difficult, but inexplicably reassuring.

For ten years.

Lin Qiye patted its head, picked out one of the few pieces of meat on the plate, and put it in his cousin Yang Jin’s bowl.

“Give it a bone.”

Yang Jin didn’t refuse. With their brotherly friendship, it would be too much to say any more.

He was concerned with another matter.

“Brother, are your eyes really good enough?”

Lin Qiye smiled slightly, “Well, I can see now, but I can’t see the light yet. This black satin will have to be wrapped for a few more days.”

“What a few days, Xiao Qi, aunt told you that eyes are too important, even if you can see now, don’t rush to pick off this black satin, just in case… What a pity if it is damaged by the sun again, Let’s be more steady and take it for a while longer!” His aunt hurriedly ordered.

“Got it, Auntie.”

“By the way, brother, I saved up some money to buy you a pair of stylish sunglasses, and I’ll show them later!” Yang Jin seemed to have thought of something and said excitedly.

Lin Qiye smiled and shook his head, “Ah Jin, although sunglasses can block light, but the effect is far worse than black satin, I can’t wear them now.”

“Okay…” Yang Jin was a little disappointed.

“But when my eyes are completely healed, I’ll take it shopping every day, and when the time comes, I’ll buy you a pair, and we’ll go together.”

Hearing these, Yang Jin’s eyes lit up again, and he hummed heavily.

“By the way, Xiaoqi, the transfer matter has been prepared for you to transfer schools. When this semester starts, you will be able to transfer from a special school to an ordinary high school.” His aunt seemed to have thought of something, and said, “However, you Have you figured it out? Ordinary high schools are different from special schools. In your situation, in case…”

“There’s no chance, aunt.” Lin Qiye interrupted her, “My eyes are already healed, and if I want to be admitted to a good university, I have to stand on the same starting line as other people.”

“You child…even if you don’t get into a good university, it’s okay. The big deal is that your aunt will always support you!”

“Brother, I can support you too!”

Lin Qiye’s body trembled slightly, his eyes under the black satin did not know what they look like, his lips pursed, and another smile appeared.

Shaking his head firmly.

He didn’t speak, but both Yang Jin and his aunt felt his determination.

Even the little black skinny under his feet rubbed against Lin Qiye’s ankle.

“—Wow!”
