into the bosom

Chapter 148 Why are you here?

"What's the matter?" After talking for a long time, Jing Qin didn't respond, but instead frowning with a pensive expression, Jing Duo raised his elbow to him.

Jing Qin shook his head, with a dignified expression, "It's too easy! It's as if he wanted me to find out."

"So... this Banlan can't be trusted? There was no problem at first? But why did she let you find out that there is a problem?" Jing Duo was full of lawsuits when he heard it.

Jing Duo narrowed his eyes and said nothing, but his eyes were as deep and unfathomable as a deep pool.

It was night, and Banlan went back to Mingyue Residence from the main courtyard. It was obviously only a short distance, but because the night was late, and when the moon was dark and the wind was high, there was no one around. She always felt uneasy, as if someone was following behind her, making her Unconsciously, she turned her head and looked around hurriedly, and her steps became more and more urgent. Seeing that she could reach Mingyue Residence just around the corner, she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the moment she turned her head back, a black shadow flew behind her, raised her hand and slashed straight at the back of her neck with a hand knife. Her eyes darkened, and she fell limp.

In the middle of the night, the wind blew up.The study room of Ximoju was still lit, and the wind blew the trees, and the shadows of the trees were reflected on the window sash, like ghosts dancing.

Jing Qin was sitting by the window, flipping through a book in his hand with an oil lamp until he felt a slight change in the wind, he closed the book, stood up, "Let's go! Go ask questions!"

Unexpectedly, before he could take a step, the person who came came knelt down with a "plop".

Jing Qin lowered his eyes and said coldly, "What's wrong?"

The visitor put his head deep on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "This subordinate did not find Ban Lan."

"She didn't go back to Mingyue Residence? Or did she rest in the main courtyard?" Jing Qin frowned slightly.

"No..." The man's voice trembled more and more, "This subordinate waited to see her leave the main courtyard and return to Mingyue Residence, and was about to find a chance to make a move. ...and the people disappeared."

"Missing?" Jing Qin's brows furrowed deeply, "What do you mean missing?"

"It just disappeared... She didn't go back to Mingyue Residence, nor did she go back to the main courtyard, just like that... disappeared out of thin air in the Hengwu courtyard. The subordinates are waiting privately to wonder if she noticed something, so she hid herself."

Jing Qin frowned, and strode out of the deep night outside the house.

The Ban Lan who they said disappeared out of thin air slowly woke up, but when she opened her eyes, she found that there was darkness in front of her, and she couldn't move her hands and feet.

Her hands and feet were bound, and her eyes were also covered. She opened her mouth to shout, only to find that her mouth was also strangled with cloth strips, and there was no sound at all, no... yes!At first, she could hear her yelling "Uh-huh", then she stopped, and heard the sound of water, but it was "tick, tick" repeated monotonously and regularly.

At first, she felt good when she heard the sound, but as time went by, the repeated sounds made her scalp tense, and later, listening to the sound, she was about to go crazy.

I don't know how long it took, but a rustling sound was added to the ticking sound. It took Ban Lan a while to realize what that sound was, it was the sound of a knife being sharpened...

The sound of sharpening the knife made Banlan's scalp tingle.After the sound of sharpening the knife stopped, some footsteps approached her. Immediately afterwards, something cold and sharp was stuck on her cheek, and then, a sinister voice rang in her ears, "This flowery and jade-like If the face is scratched a few times, what will it look like?"

"If you cut off another ear and cut off the tongue... tsk tsk tsk, it would be a pity for such a beauty."

Banlan shook her head vigorously when she heard this, tears fell and she kept saying "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu".

"The beauty seems to have something to say? Then I have to listen. After all, if you cut off your tongue, you won't be able to hear again." The strip of cloth was untied.

Banlan didn't care about the numbness at the corner of her mouth, and hurriedly said, "What do you want to know? As long as I know, you can ask... If you ask, I will tell you everything, and tell you everything!"

When dawn broke, He Lianshu who was asleep on the couch suddenly opened his eyes.

The sound of the wind outside was soft, mixed with the occasional sound of drizzle, and the sound of footsteps that was so soft that it was almost silent was mixed with these sounds, it was inaudible, but He Lianshu heard it immediately, in the tent Zhong silently sat up.

Outside the tent, a figure knelt down and bowed his hands in salute to him, "Commander, I have asked all the questions that should be asked. The confession is all here. Please read it over."

With a snap of Helian Shu's fingers, someone from the dark came to light the lamp, he stretched out his hand from the tent, and the man who was clasped fists on the ground got up and hurriedly presented the confession page.

He Lianshu looked at the words on it, but his eyes suddenly darkened.

Xu Jiao had a very pleasant time in Zhuangzi these few days.

Every day I sleep until I wake up naturally, get up and eat breakfast, and wander around the mountains with Zhou Qiao, dig wild vegetables, or go fishing in the streams, and after returning, Zhou Qiao cooks them into delicacies.

In the afternoon, soak in the hot spring together and "learn" Fushui.Xu Jiao was really talented, within two days he became a fish in the water, writhing happily.

Zhou Qiao was very envious, but because of her timidity, she had to wait until the fourth day to swim back and forth in the pool by herself.

However, Zhou Qiao is also very satisfied. In her opinion, Sister Ajiao is much smarter than her. Naturally, she can learn everything faster and better than her. This is nothing more than normal.

Xu Jiao didn't know Zhou Qiao's psychology, if she knew, she would be ashamed.After all, she was cheating!On the contrary, it was the girl Zhou Qiao, who was quiet and well-behaved, and also had good cooking skills, which made Xu Jiao want to abduct her back home.

This day was the same, after eating Zhou Qiao's meticulously cooked dinner, Xu Jiao walked around the garden in the dark contentedly, talking to Zhou Qiao at the same time.Tired from walking, the two lay down on the deck chairs in the garden, looked at the stars in the sky, chatted and laughed, and the sweet laughter flowed under the night sky.

In Xu Jiao's laughter, there was a faint sigh, "This is a good day!" If the book and the real world have already been lived in two lives, the current life lying flat like a salted fish is what she dreams of ah!

"Sister Ajiao will have such a good day every day from now on." Zhou Qiao said with a smile.

After hearing this, Xu Jiao smiled, raised his hand to clamp the little girl's soft cheeks, and said with a smile, "This little mouth is sweet. I hope I can lend you a good word, but I seem to be a hard worker, and I don't have such a leisurely luck." !"

Xu Jiao let out a long sigh, meeting Zhou Qiao's clear but ignorant eyes, she couldn't help but smile wryly, forget it, who can understand?

It wasn't until late at night that Xu Jiao returned to the room, and yawned quietly after entering the door.

"You really live a happy life!" A voice with the cool autumn night suddenly came from the dark place, Xu Jiao yawned and choked in his throat, almost choking back.

"Why are you here?" Seeing the person walking out from the shadow of the curtain, Xu Jiao rounded his eyes in real surprise.
