May is the rainy season.The rain was falling all the time, like a hazy curtain from the sky to the ground, and on this hazy stage, the whole city seemed to fade from color to a silent oil painting formed by black, white and gray.In the painting, everyone walks in a hurry, walks through the door of the store, walks through the subway exit, walks through the streets and alleys, and walks through every place that has nothing to do with them.In front of the exit of the subway station, a long-haired girl with a guitar sits quietly in the corner, plucking the strings and humming a melody that no one has ever heard.Hurried steps walked in front of the girl, and no one stopped to listen to the too low and boring ballad, May stopped playing with the guitar, raised her eyelids, and looked at the gray sky.The rain seemed to freeze in her vision, and the whole world slowed down, and in her vision, the entire black, white and gray city instantly turned into a colorful still frame, in which her eyes flashed a layer of light - in the infrared visual perception of the kraken, everything became clear and clear.A moment later, May blinked, the falling rain began to fall again, and the walking pedestrians began to move again, muttering under her breath in front of the subway exit that was gradually becoming deserted: "Almost two months......
It's time to get out of the city. ”Several pedestrians left from the exit of the subway station, and a pair of parents walked in front of May with a pair of siblings, and the little girl grabbed her mother's hand and shook vigorously: "I said I would go to the zoo today!"
Say yes to go to the zoo today—" "What kind of zoo are you going to when it's raining," the mother held an umbrella and bowed her head to scold her daughter, "Don't kick the water - your skirt is wet!"
”The little girl seemed to be frustrated, and her father, who was walking next to her, bent down and pressed her hair: "Good, obedient - I will take you ......there next Monday" They gradually walked away, May looked at the back of the family from a distance, and after a moment of loneliness, she showed a faint smile: "It's so good......"
She stood up, put the guitar on her back, and popped a small drop of water in the direction of the family: "Don't forget the agreement with the child." ”With that done, she straightened the hem of her clothes, looked up at the raindrops that were still falling, and turned to leave the place.However, when she turned around, she saw a little girl she didn't know standing in front of her."
Huh?"
May tilted her head in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Bub?
”The little girl just looked at her fixedly, and after a few seconds, she suddenly burst into tears without warning: "Wow, mother......"
"Oh, don't cry!
Don't ...... you" May suddenly became scrambled, clumsily and overwhelmed to comfort the little girl who suddenly cried, "I didn't bully you......
I don't know you!
”As she spoke, she looked around in a panic, trying to find the little girl's family, but there was no one nearby, and she only heard the little girl still crying: "I'm looking for my mother......
Mother ......"
May was stunned for a moment, and turned her head to look at the little girl's face: "You and your mother are lost?"
”The little girl just cried and didn't answer her question at all.May frowned, and after a few seconds of hesitation, she raised her hand, and some raindrops falling from the sky outside the canopy immediately drifted in, and the rain quickly gathered at her fingertips, and in a moment it condensed into the shape of a crystal clear little goldfish.The little girl stopped crying in surprise and looked at the crystal goldfish that May handed her."
Don't cry," May patted the little girl's hair, "Sister will do magic tricks for you." ”The little girl took the goldfish in amazement and exclaimed happily: "Wow-" "Good, don't cry - are you lost with your mother?"
”"Hmm.""
Then ......"
May looked up at the sky again, then lowered her head, "I'll take you to your mother." ”"Hmm......
But my mother said that she couldn't go with strangers. ”May was stunned for a moment, and then showed a crying and laughing appearance: "......
Mom was right......
Shall we wait here for our mother together?
”The little girl thought hard for a while, and then didn't seem to find anything wrong, so she nodded slightly: "Okay!
”May dragged the child to her former resting place, sat down again, and let the little girl lean against her, while she untied her guitar and plucked its strings.I don't know how long it has been, but the already groggy sky outside has already darkened.The little girl blinked, she fiddled with the little goldfish in her hand, and after fiddling with it for a while, she suddenly said curiously: "Sister, you have a good smell on you." ”"Good smell?
What is it?
”"It's like rain," the little girl said in thought, and then suddenly giggled, "Sweet!
”"It's raining?"
May felt that she really couldn't understand a child's thoughts, she stretched out her hand, and some raindrops that should have fallen outside the canopy at the subway exit fell on her hand, "Is the rain sweet?"
”However, the little girl leaning on her suddenly said something that seemed to be clueless: "But the birthday cake is very sweet!"
”"Birthday cake?"
May had no idea what the kid was talking about, "Where did the birthday cake come from?"
”"It's my birthday," the little girl said happily, "and I'm on my birthday today!"
Mommy went buy me a cake......"
The little girl stopped suddenly.She seemed to suddenly think of her mother again, her eyes rapidly turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye, but May, who was beside her, was suddenly stunned.Birthday......
Buy a cake......
Lost while buying a cake?
It is impossible for such a young child to run very far......
Is there a cake shop nearby?
She suddenly raised her head and looked in a certain direction across the street.She lifted her finger and pointed to the hazy curtain of rain outside—the fluttering rain immediately writhed slightly, and the next second, a near-transparent water elemental with a vague silhouette similar to that of May appeared in the damp mist and drizzle of air.The water elemental bent slightly to May, then turned in the direction of the street, its body melting like wax, quickly merging with the water on the ground, and then a ripple that was almost imperceptible to the naked eye quickly drifted into the distance along the water on the ground, the rain and fog in mid-air, and the water on the walls.The ripple crosses the street, through the alleys, through the storefronts, and finally stops in front of a shopping street.Ripple lingers in the puddle of water on the shopping street, its almost transparent face appearing on its surface, staring at the nearest store: Xiaoyu Cake.The ripples collapsed in the puddles and turned into countless cascading waves, centered on the cake shop, spreading everywhere there was water.Where there is water, the Kraken is everywhere.…… A young woman walked anxiously down the street, shop after shop asking about her daughter's whereabouts, her clothes drenched and her hair disheveled, but she paid no attention to it.No one had ever seen a little girl walk past their door.The young woman finally stopped at the corner of the street, staring blankly at the hazy city in front of her, her eyes unfocused.The ripples in the water stopped at her feet.An almost transparent female figure emerges from the rain curtain behind the young woman, and it approaches her dejected mother, making a hallucinatory voice like a wave: "Go to the exit of Metro Line 2......
She ...... there"......
Under the canopy at the exit of the subway, the little girl, who had been crying for another round, finally saw her mother running towards her."
Mom!!"
The little girl happily threw herself into the young woman's arms, and then, without waiting for her mother to speak, turned her head, pointed to May, and exclaimed happily: "My sister can do magic!"
My sister will become a goldfish!

”May stood up and smiled at the embarrassed and frightened young woman, who didn't look like her at all — but maybe her back was a little closer: "Don't be too far away from your child next time." ”"Thank you, thank you......"
The young woman thanked again and again, and then invited in a panic, "Come and sit at my house, our family ......"
"No, I should go home too," May declined the other party's thanks and kindness, she had already put her guitar back on her back and walked towards the city where it was raining outside, before walking into the rain curtain, she turned her head and showed a bright smile to the little girl, "Happy birthday!"
”In the breeze and drizzle, a page of the calendar that drifted from nowhere fell in front of May.May looked down and saw the clear date on the calendar: May 15th."
Let's stay a few more days......" ......
In the living room of Hao Ren's house, a group of people sat around the big dining table, and Nangong May was coiled on one side of the table, shaking the tip of his tail and shaking his fingers: "Then I decided to stay a few more days—and then I was arranged by our goddess in a daze, and then I came here......
That's it. ”"Wow—" Hao Ren sighed, "there were so many things that happened before you came here. ”"And what a coincidence," sighed Vivien, "that day was also May 15th?"
Today is also May 15th. ”"Who asked me to call May?"
May laughed, the tip of her tail wagging in the air, "I'm related to May." ”"After all, the fifteenth of May—" Itzhax laughed, "in my homeland, there are human kingdoms who believe in the saying that everyone's destiny is tied to the day they were born, and that the day of their birthday is the day when fate chooses a fork in the road. ”"So......"
Yizax's voice fell, and Hao Ren and Vivien laughed at the same time, "May, birthday K......"
Before they could say anything, May already wagged her tail strangely: "But that day is not my birthday—huh?"
What did you just want to say?
”"Huh?!"
Hao Ren looked at May dumbfounded, and at the same time hurriedly and quietly stuffed the ribbon cylinder that had been taken out of his back into the carry-on space, "You are not ...... in May" "I have a lunar birthday," May's tail bent slightly, "When I was born, the country was still in the Gregorian calendar - I have been counting according to the lunar calendar since I was a child."
But my brother is more shameless - he has the Gregorian calendar and the lunar calendar, and cheats me twice a year to give gifts.What did you just want to say?
”"I didn't ......
It's nothing ......"
Vivien smiled awkwardly, and behind her, two small bats were scrambling to throw the gift box into Hao Ren's personal space.Itzax also looked embarrassed - but his face was too dark to see: "Ahem, I didn't speak." ”Behind him, the gift box that had been prepared was also thrown into Hao Ren's personal space opening.Nangong May blinked, muttering in confusion: "Why are they all strange......
Hao Ren and the others hurriedly waved their hands: "It's not strange, it's not strange......
But at this moment, the main door of the house was suddenly pushed open.Under Hao Ren's horrified gaze, Lily happily ran in from outside, and she ran all the way to May's side, pulling the ribbon tube: "Happy Birthday May!!
”In addition to the embarrassment, the scene is still embarrassing."
Birthday—" Lily yelled again, only to finally notice that something was wrong, and she looked clouded, "What's wrong?"
”Hao Ren covered his face: "She ...... in May" Vivian took the second half of the sentence: "It's a lunar birthday......"
