The old man went out, looking like a dog with its tail between its legs. The children were now afraid that Jadis would have something to say to them about what had happened in the wood. As it turned out, however, she never mentioned it either then or afterwards. I think (and Digory thinks too) that her mind was of a sort which cannot remember that quiet place at all, and however often you took her there and however long you left her there, shewould still know nothing about it. Now that she was left alone with the children, she took no notice of either of them. And that was like her too. In Charn she had taken no notice of Pony (till the very end) because Digory was the one she wanted to make use of. Now that she had Uncle Andrew, she took no notice of Digory. I expect most witches are like that. They are not interested in things or people unless they can use them; they are terribly practical. So there was silence in the room for a minute or two. But you could tell by the way Jadis tapped her foot on the floor that she was growing impatient.

“你期待的一生会是什么样的?”晚上加班时抽空看了一则微博,也许是好奇心的驱使,余忆点击了下面的评论。评论里大多数写着人们对未来的幻想,以及愿望。她的手指在手机屏幕上轻轻滑动着,最后停在了一个人的评论前:“拥有一个爱的她,直到一辈子。”看了一眼他的昵称和发布时间,余忆微微愣着——江尘风,他回国了。
