The more people grow up, the more they recognize the world, and the longings and fantasies they once had will be shattered by reality one by one.

What we once worshipped, once obsessed, and once longed for, seems to gradually dissipate, but it can never be erased, but it is hidden in the bottom of our hearts, protected by stubborn walls, and we do not want to be invaded by reality, which is our garden of illusions, magnificent, strange, absurd, but full of joy and vitality.

- Wandering toad

A group of young people struggled to carry things to a van, dressed in very exaggerated costumes, each smiling and full of joy.

As long as you are a little familiar with pop elements, you can see that this group of young people is a group of cosplay, people who know a lot about pop culture, and you can also see that they are playing characters in a popular novel.

The girl wearing Xiaolian's costume, with a round face, does not have the queen fan in the original book, but cute, is the most lively in this group of young people, anyone will say cute when they see it, but it is the second heroine Huang'er, who was originally a famous fairy, with a demure temperament, but with a little cold, and almost no expression on the beautiful face.

A handsome guy clapped his hands, smiled and shouted loudly: "Our performance this time is very good, we will go to Wanghailou in a while, I have a treat, no one is allowed to make an excuse to go first." ”

A group of young people cheered, the atmosphere was extremely lively, like the stars holding the moon, surrounded the handsome guys who wanted to treat, shouting and shouting were all compliments, and there were also foodies who kept reporting the name of the dish, so they had to have a good meal.

Xu smiled honestly, tried to move the last box of props into the car, and was about to get on the bus to find a seat, when the handsome guy who wanted to treat him saw him, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, separated the crowd, came over to stop him, and said gently: "Thank you for helping our club to do coolies, I should have invited you to eat together tonight, but there are too many things in our car and too many people, there is no place, you better go first, and save a squeeze with us." ”

Xu had a round and chubby face, a sincere smile stiffened slightly, and he glanced at the Huang'er actor who was still far away from the crowd and had no expression. Qu Lei, who played Huang'er, didn't seem to pay attention to this side at all, her starry eyes were slightly closed, leaning against a big tree, and she seemed to be resting.

Xu quickly turned his head, and a sincere smile appeared on his face again, and he smiled: "I have to go home early today, and I can't eat with you, so I'll leave first." ”

Xu waved his hand at everyone, but soon he found that no one looked at him at all, and he had done useless work in vain, so he could only put down his hand and reluctantly leave the group.

When Xu walked away, laughter suddenly broke out in the group of young people, and someone shouted: "That little fat man actually fell in love with Qu Lei, and he chased after him, and came to join us in the club, I'm afraid he doesn't even know what role we play today, right?"

Someone started the conversation, and immediately someone picked up the conversation and laughed: "Just like his bear, fat as Zhu Bajie, Qu Lei will take a fancy to him! Qu Lei and the head of our family are a couple!"

Qu Lei, who played Huang'er, heard this, frowned slightly, and said a little unhappily: "I have nothing to do with Gao Wenhu, please don't mess with cp." I also have something to do, I have to go first, and I can't eat with everyone. ”

Qu Lei didn't explain to everyone, so she left in a hurry, and she didn't even have time to change her clothes.

The handsome guy who wanted to invite everyone to dinner, that is, Gao Wenhu, the head of this cos club, immediately turned ugly, and without saying a word, he got into the car. The atmosphere was a little depressed for a while, and soon someone blamed Xu on this kind of thing, and cursed in a low voice, saying extremely ugly.

Xu wiped his hands, a little depressed, he and Qu Lei were junior high school classmates, when he first entered the school, he couldn't help but be attracted by this girl's temperament, but his personality was too far from Qu Lei, and because he was too fat, it was difficult to get into the love of playing cos, in the eyes of Qu Lei, who was a little bit of a Yan control party, even though he worked hard, he still couldn't attract the attention of the goddess.

This time, he also came to join in the fun with a shy face, and he was busy for a few days, and he made a lot of efforts, but he was still excluded by the people of Qu Lei's club.

The place where he participated in the event was in the exhibition center, very far away from Xu Li's home, and when he was calculating how to go to the subway first and then transfer to the bus, he reached out and wiped his pocket, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his whole face became bitter.

"Oh no! I forgot to bring money when I went out, so I can't take the subway!"

Xu Li wanted to go back and beg the club to take him for a ride, but he saw the van speeding in front of him, and he didn't even remember to say hello, only the dust tail was left for him, which made Xu Li's face even more bitter.

"It seems that I can only walk back, it seems to be more than 20 kilometers from here home, I don't know if I can walk back tonight. ”

Xu rubbed his hands, but he had no choice but to embark on the long journey home.

More than four hours later, it was completely dark, and Xu Li was still trudging on the way home, but fortunately, his physical strength was not bad, thanks to his usual exercise.

When he was in the first year of junior high school, he pursued Qu Lei, and Qu Lei said: "I don't like fat people, if you can lose 120 pounds, I'll consider it." He worked hard and started a three-year weight loss program.

I ran every morning and evening, did push-ups and horizontal bars between classes, and even jumped up all the stairs, even if I was ridiculed by my classmates, I never wavered.

It's a pity that a lot of exercise and the growth period, his height actually began to grow wildly, and his height increased from 156 cm to 175 cm in the second year of junior high school. Xu found that the basketball players were very "thin", and he also stupidly joined the school basketball team in the second year of junior high school, of course...... This didn't have any effect, but when he was in his third year of junior high school, his height increased to 183 cm, and although his weight had lost more than 30 catties, he still had 160 catties, which was still far from Qu Lei's requirements. Even though he has already exercised eight-pack abs under his clothes, he still looks like a round little fat man because of his naturally chubby face and thick skeleton.

Xu was already tired, he looked at the stars in the sky, the bright starlight, so that his mood was a lot better, he liked to look up at the starry sky since he was a child, every time he saw the starry sky would feel a lot better, but with urbanization, it is rare to see such a night sky.

He looked at it for a while, lowered his head slightly, but the next second, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked up at the night sky again, only to see the stars, like the brilliant fireworks of the festival, the Milky Way in the sky, and the stars in the row......

But...... How is it possible to see such a starry sky in an extremely polluted city sky?
