I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 168 Looking at each other but not hearing each other

After talking it over with Chen Jinzhi, she agreed to her request to go home with her.

In fact, if she agreed easily, Su Chengyi would feel more relaxed.

Being in such a difficult situation just proves that she was truly aware that she was in danger last night.

Chen Jinzhi's intuition has always been accurate.

Su Chengyi thought that every time she saw through him, she would smile and say it was intuition.

The Olive Zone has a large population and is a mixed bag.

In fact, according to common sense, it should be a very common thing for some unemployed vagrants with evil intentions to follow beautiful girls.

So after morning class, Su Chengyi found an excuse to discuss the topic and went to inquire about the details with Lin Tong, an aborigine.

However, according to Lin Tong's explanation, most of those people were young boys studying in nearby vocational high schools.

At most, he just followed behind and whistled. When he was discovered, he just laughed and didn't dare to do anything.

And because of the high population density, basically every household on the roadside is an acquaintance.

Neighbors who live nearby are used to hard times. They know each other well and know the importance of staying together for warmth. They have always protected each other.

According to him, there was a gangster nearby who followed Sister Lin for more than half a month and whistled until her mouth was numb.

Sister Lin didn't even look back because she couldn't hear her at all.

But this little gangster had been ignored for so many days, and he didn't even have the guts to go up and say hello.

Later, Lin Tong happened to bump into him on his way to study in the evening, so he caught him and asked him about it.

Chen Jinzhi's home and Lin Tong's home are separated by two alleys, so the situation should not be much different.

But it had been a few months since she came here, and I had never heard her talk about such a thing before.

It happened to be last night.

Thinking of Old Peng's strange eyes and abnormal behavior during evening class last night, Su Chengyi immediately focused on him as the first suspect.

But for now it's just suspicion.

Although Old Man Peng has a worrisome character and a notorious reputation, he is still a serious people's teacher.

Shouldn't he commit such an extremely heinous act as following a female student?

Su Chengyi frowned and felt a chill in his heart.

If this is true, then there must be many victims who were harassed by him, mostly because they did not dare to speak out due to his threats.

Make sure he can't eat and walk around.

With this determination, during lunch break, after Su Chengyi came out of the cafeteria, he went to the nearby canteen and bought two bottles of mineral water.

Instead of going back to the classroom, he walked straight to the security booth at the school gate in the sunlight under the plane trees.

The door was unlocked, so out of politeness, Su Chengyi stood outside the glass window and took a look inside.

Uncle Wang was lying on an iron frame bed, sleeping soundly. A small broken electric fan was turned on to the highest setting, making a "creak" sound from time to time.

If they are acquaintances, that would be easier.

Su Chengyi opened the door and sat on the chair where Uncle Wang usually sat guarding the door, preparing to wait for him to sleep for a while.

After taking a sip of the ice water he just bought, Su Chengyi looked around at the structure of the school security room.

Fast forward life with one click and experience the working environment after graduation in advance.

A row of decent emergency props hangs on the wall behind the workbench.

Su Chengyi thought, stood up, and scanned them one by one.

It feels like visiting an equipment store in a shooting game.Of course, this row belongs to novice players who don’t spend money.

The first thing that catches your eye is the rubber stick that you can see everywhere.

To be honest, Su Chengyi always felt that this thing looked awkward and useless.

So he took it off and tried to put it on his thigh.

hiss!
That seems to be of some use.

Unfortunately, it was too conspicuous and inconvenient to carry around, so he hung the rubber stick back up.

Next to it are riot-proof steel forks of different lengths, which look a bit like harpoons.This is usually used against knife-wielding criminals. You can use this to fork him to the ground to restrict his movement.It's obviously not useful now.

Cut-proof gloves, stab-proof vests, explosion-proof shields and other self-protection equipment are neatly stacked next to them.

Su Chengyi didn't touch these because he had already seen two things that could really come in handy.

A bright flashlight and pepper spray.

These are all self-defense supplies that can be purchased through formal channels, but the effect of purchasing them privately is definitely not as good as those prepared by the security office.

Su Chengyi first checked the instructions behind the pepper water.

The function is to immediately stop all actions of the opponent. The person who is sprayed will have tears in his eyes, sneeze and cough, and his respiratory tract will be burned like fire, which is extremely uncomfortable, and will not cause any harm to the human body.

The ingredients contained are natural strong stimulating substances such as chili pepper extract and mustard extract, which have no organic toxic or side effects on the human body.

This time Su Chengyi had no intention of committing suicide to try the effect.

A big part of the reason why he doesn't like seafood is because he doesn't like dipping it in mustard.

But you can still try a strong light flashlight.

Su Chengyi turned the flashlight and pressed the on/off button.

No kidding, it was clear and sunny, and for a moment he felt as if someone had thrown a flash bomb into the security room.

"What happened?!"

The bright light also happened to be directed at Uncle Wang, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, frightening him so much that he rolled over and screamed in panic.

The little broken electric fan was kicked to the ground by his kick, but he was still working hard.

Su Chengyi quickly turned off the flashlight, stepped forward and unplugged the fan, and said hello at the same time.

"Uncle Wang, it's me."

He stretched out his five fingers and waved them in front of Uncle Wang.

It took at least several minutes for Uncle Wang to recover. Su Chengyi unscrewed the mineral water bottle and handed it to him.

"Thank you! No, what are you doing here? Who told you to mess with things!"

Uncle Wang took a sip of water and said thank you out of habit. Only then did he realize that something was wrong, and he immediately stared and cursed angrily.

"I have something to do with you."

Su Chengyi slowly put the water bottle back on the table.

"Were you on duty last night?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Uncle Wang snorted angrily when others spoke softly.

"You know about Teacher Peng in our school, right?"

"It's necessary. Can I still know about him?"

There was some confusion on Uncle Wang's face.
"What? Do you have something to do with him?"

Although he knew this person, Uncle Wang was on the same side as the school's monkeys this time and had an extremely bad impression of him.

On the contrary, Uncle Wang felt that Su Chengyi was a good boy from the bottom of his heart, so he subconsciously did not want him to have anything to do with Old Man Peng.

Su Chengyi shook his head and replied:

"About what time did he leave school last night? Did you notice?"

Uncle Wang frowned and recalled for a while, then replied firmly:
"He drove a white BYD and left early. Evening classes hadn't even started long ago. I guess it won't be past eight o'clock at the latest."

This is a bit strange.

Old Man Peng's behavior last night clearly showed that this was the first time he met Chen Jinzhi, and he definitely had no way of knowing her home address.

If you want to follow her, you should have to start following her all the way out of school.

However, he drove away early. According to the time mentioned by Uncle Wang, he should have left shortly after the classroom incident.

In this case, Old Man Peng's suspicion would not be said to be completely cleared, but at least seven to eight points would be cleared.

Then who could it be?

Su Chengyi frowned and lost his train of thought for a moment.

Seeing that he suddenly became silent, Uncle Wang probably guessed that he was in some difficulty and asked tentatively:

"what happened?"

"It's nothing."

Su Chengyi shook his head and stood up.

"If you have any difficulty and you want to talk to Teacher Peng, I can tell you the truth quietly."

Uncle Wang pulled him over mysteriously and said in his ear:
"He is a very superstitious person, very superstitious. And he has suddenly become superstitious in the past few years. The ones hanging in the car are all densely packed with peace charms. It's scary to look at them."

Su Chengyi's heart sank when he heard this.

If a person suddenly becomes superstitious, there are probably only two possibilities.

The first is that he suddenly has a very strong desire for certain things and wants to obtain them through prayer.

For example, a celebrity wants to be popular.People who are seriously ill want to be cured of their illness and be healthy.

The second possibility is that he did something that made him feel very guilty.He had no choice but to seek refuge and spiritual stability through superstition.

It is precisely because of this mentality that those who do great evil are frequent visitors to temples.

This is the so-called "Buddha's mouth and snake's heart".

Based on Old Man Peng's daily performance, he is likely to be the second type.

The thing that made him feel guilty seemed to have some vague connection with Chen Jinzhi, otherwise he wouldn't have run away like that last night.

Although I don’t know if the tailing incident is related to this, it is always right to have more effective information.

Su Chengyi nodded and said:

"Thank you, Uncle Wang. I understand. I will bring you some good tea next time."

Uncle Wang immediately waved his hand:
"Ouch, how can this be so embarrassing! What kind of tea, Yunnan Pu'er or West Lake Longjing? It really doesn't work Anxi Tieguanyin."

"It's Dongting Biluochun."

Su Chengyi smiled and pocketed the chili pepper water and bright flashlight.

"Oh hehehe, what a wonderful feeling! Dongting Biluochun is fragrant and fresh and elegant. Do you know what people called it in ancient times? Why don't you, kid, put it in your pocket?"

Uncle Wang struggled out of his thoughts about Biluochun and stretched out his hand to stop his movement.

"Borrow it."

Su Chengyi took two steps back to avoid his hand, zipped up the pocket of his school uniform, and said sincerely:

"The two I chose can be purchased from legal channels for self-defense. It's just that if I buy them now, it's too late. I might use them tonight.

I can assure you that I am doing this for self-protection and will never use it in a wrong way. "

Uncle Wang and the young man looked at each other firmly for a long time, sighed, and retracted his hand to stop them.

"As a student, no matter what happens to you, you must first seek help from your parents and school, and don't be too stubborn."

"I know, thank you."

Su Chengyi returned to the classroom with the loot.

The original intention was just to find out from Uncle Wang the time when Old Man Peng left school last night, but he didn't expect to gain a lot.

The lunch break is not over yet, and the classroom is quiet.

From a distance, he saw Chen Jinzhi burying his face in his arms, probably falling asleep again.

Su Chengyi slowed down, picked up the chair gently, and put it down carefully.

Listening to the rustling sound of writing around him, Su Chengyi returned his gaze to the "Collection of Ancient Poems" lying flat on the desk.

There is a big difference visible to the naked eye between Chu Qingmian's book and his own.

The cover of the book is a little wrinkled. It has obviously been read over and over again, and the notes are densely packed.The other one didn't even have his name written on it, just some random underlines with a red pen.

Su Chengyi flipped through it a few times, but soon discovered some clues.

From time to time, among the seemingly serious notes, a few words that Chu Qingmian added on his own whim would appear.

There are some poems that she deliberately mixed together in a weird way.

"A friend comes from afar, even if he is far away, he will be killed!"

"Sit up in shock while dying and ask the guest with a smile where he came from."

"Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, a group of egrets ascended the sky."

Su Chengyi read it several times and almost couldn't remember what the original sentence was.

Just write like this during the exam. Could this be a trap set by Chu Qingmian to take away No. 1?
Some of them were lyrics that were successfully mixed into the notes, and it looked like she was copying notes while listening to the song.

"This landscape poem describes the quiet scenery in the evening and expresses the poet's contentment. The beauty of the poem is that once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time. The movement contrasts with the stillness, and the part contrasts with the overall situation."

"The poet used a question-and-answer technique to vividly describe Zhong's anxious mood as he searched for the scene where he could not travel through time."

"The first sentence is beautifully worded, the sky is blue, waiting for mist and rain, and I'm waiting for you, showing the luxurious style of a feast."

Good guy, don’t mention it. If you don’t look carefully, you really can’t tell what the problem is.

Not only the text, but also almost every illustration in the book has been reshaped by her.

The old man with a long beard held a cane in one hand and held an AK steady in the other; the cowherd boy turned into a cowherd girl, with long hair flying and a face full of peach blossoms; Su Zi and his guests went boating under the Red Cliff, and what they floated was not a boat, but an aircraft carrier.

She even used special pencils, and all the illustrations were drawn outrageously yet with a hint of reasonableness.

However, the details and composition of each painting are truly remarkable.

The structure of the AK47 gun body is as accurate as the schematic diagram; the righteous cowherd boy was sketched by her with a few strokes, and his expression immediately became that of a young girl; the aircraft carrier was also drawn so lifelike that you would definitely not be able to draw it if you had not carefully read the relevant popular science.

I had only seen her oil paintings before, but I didn't expect her pencil drawings to be so good.

Chu Qingmian really has some talent.

Su Chengyi couldn't help but sigh in her heart while flipping through her book.

Not only her painting skills, but her natural imagination and creativity are really valuable.

He took out his mobile phone and wanted to take a picture of the Su Zi Pan aircraft carrier and save it. Unexpectedly, as soon as he unlocked the lock screen, several WeChat messages popped up.

2 minutes ago.

It was a message from Chu Qingmian.

Before Su Chengyi had time to read the specific content, he hurriedly typed a line and sent it before starting to read it in detail.

The reflection arc reaches the moon:
"I won't borrow it! Hum, you can't open my drawer anyway."

A photo of a piece of scratch paper filled with calculations.

"Oh my god, where did you find such a perverted question!!! I don't want to do it anymore!"

Su Chengyi clicked on the steps she wrote and took a look. Yes, the idea is completely correct.

But the calculation error caused it to go far from the fourth step.

"This photo expresses the photographer's longing for Miss Chu Qingmian ~ right?"

A photo of the moon from an angle somewhat similar to the one he took.

The crescent moon was crescent, and Su Cheng realized the look in Chu Qingmian's eyes when she smiled.

Each message corresponds to the message he sent before, and every message has a response.

Apparently she had seen the message she had sent a long time ago and had edited the reply, but she had not had the chance to send it out until just now.

Then there was the one that Su Chengyi had just sent out in a hurry.

"When are you going back to school?"

The other party's status changed to typing, and a few seconds later, she replied:
"Hurry~"

Su Chengyi thought for a while, then took a picture of the Suzi Pan aircraft carrier she drew and sent it to her.

"!!!"

"You actually opened my drawer!"

"Idiot, I thought you would never think that the password requires your birthday."

Su Chengyi couldn't help but smile, and while still wanting to reply, the other party sent another message:
"Okay~ See you at school. PS: Even if we meet soon, you still miss me."

Ah, probably the free time is over.

So Su Chengyi's fingers that were about to type paused, and he suddenly felt a little lost.

After staring at the chat box for a long time, his palm suddenly vibrated and a new message appeared on the screen.

"PPS: Since classmate Su Chengyi misses me so much, I will reward him by turning to the last page of my "Encyclopedia of Ancient Poetry and Prose"~"

This is also considered a reward. Now that I have got the book, I will see it sooner or later.

The last page of a book is usually a blank piece of paper. I feel that with Chu Qingmian's temperament, he might write something like "The person he saw is a little pig" at the back.

Su Chengyi opened the book with a defensive mind ready to say "rebound", but what came into view was a painting.

Compared with the many prank graffiti in the past, this page was obviously drawn seriously by Chu Qingmian.

The scene is very familiar, it is this classroom, but all other seats are empty.

The curtains were blown up by the evening breeze, making it look a little lonely.

The boy in school uniform sat on his seat, holding his chin and looking out the window.

A huge full moon was rising slowly, and the moonlight reflected on him, stretching the thin shadow very long.

Chu Qingmian's painting style is always whimsical and full of romanticism.

For example, on this huge moon, she even drew the texture of the craters on the moon's surface very clearly, giving a realistic sketch a bit of science fiction.

The moonlight was very stingy and unscientific, and it only fell on the young man.

So the theme of the whole painting changed from a lonely boy to a boy and the moon looking at each other from a distance.

There is a line of small words in the lower right corner, which is Chu Qingmian's handwriting.

"At this time, we look at each other but don't hear each other. May the moonlight shine on you."

I don’t know when it was painted, but it somehow fits my current state of mind.

Su Chengyi lowered his head and replied to Chu Qingmian:
"like very much."

He knew the reply wouldn't come quickly, but he wasn't anxious about it.

　Thanks to book friend Low Power for the reward, and thank you all for your subscription and voting support!

　　Since each chapter is about 5k, it is a bit overwhelming to add more in the current state.
　　So there will be an extra episode added on the Chinese Valentine’s Day! (Before I start writing) If you have any ideas you want to see, you can leave a message here~~
