Chapter 38 The Devil Comes to Maple Street (2)
Zhen Ai looked at Eva's smiling face, and asked curiously and seriously, "Eva, are you happy?"

Eva was applying lip gloss, and after hearing this, she smiled even wider: "Of course."

Speaking of this, his eyes rolled, "Hmph, that freak SA is right, I brought you here just to ask your opinion." With an excited tone, "What do you think of Danny?"

"I think it's pretty good." Zhen Ai nodded, and said embarrassedly, "I don't know the details, it's just a feeling."

"Enough." Eva smiled sweetly, and suddenly leaned over to hug Zhen Ai, "Ai, thank you!"

Zhen Ai was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt warm.

In fact, she should be the one who said thank you. She has never helped a friend refer to a man's experience like this.But Eva trusted her and gave her this chance.She is the one who feels the happiest.

Since they are friends, Zhen Ai decided to say something more: "Then, I think you seem to be very cautious with Danny, you want to..."

"I want to be with him and be boyfriend and girlfriend." Eva was very happy and inadvertently interrupted Zhen Ai's words.

Zhen Ai silently closed her mouth, wondering, she thought they were going to get married.

Eva looked in the mirror: "This time I want to maintain a stable relationship with Danny. The previous ones were only physical and physical. It's a partner, not a boyfriend." Very typical American thinking.

Zhen Ai was puzzled, biological partner→boyfriend→fiance→husband, with so many procedures, wouldn't it be more convenient to go down with one person.

But she just thought about it and didn't say anything.

She is very clear that everyone has their own way of life and love, there is no good or bad, and no one is superior to another.

Her attention was quickly attracted by the glossy lip gloss in Eva's hand.Because of the lack of childhood, she has never been resistant to colorful things and children's things.

When Eva was packing her makeup bag, she caught a glimpse of Zhen Ai's straight gaze, and smiled and handed her the lip gloss: "You can apply it too."

Zhen Ai shook her head, and replied seriously: "I'm afraid I can't help but lick my lips and eat it into my stomach."

Eva chuckled, and stuffed the lip gloss into her hand: "Try it, it's sure to look good!"

Zhen Ai looked at the jelly-like color and wanted to try it in her heart.After hesitating for a moment, he picked it up and applied it to his lips in front of the mirror.

Eva stood by the sink and watched, and suddenly asked: "Ai, how are you and SA?"

Zhen Ai shook her hands, and the pink lip gloss instantly drew a gash on her fair cheeks, like a big grinning face, very funny.

"What?" She stared at Eva in surprise.

Seeing her panicked appearance, Eva smiled even more heartily, took out a tissue and handed it to her: "You two are very close, pretend not to know?"

While Zhen Ai was dumbfounded, her face heated up rapidly.

Eva also drew a square towel for herself to wipe her hands: "When we were in college, I was 16 and he was 12, and it has been 11 years now." Eva narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling a little emotional,

"I didn't even realize it. I've known each other for so many years. One Bush, one Obama... another Obama. The world has changed, and he has grown from a little freak to a big freak."

Zhen Ai was amused by her words, and the expressive Eva raised her eyebrows exaggeratedly: "Really. I haven't had even a single physical contact with his old classmates for so many years..."

Zhen Ai was wiping her face, when she heard this, her eyes almost popped out.

"Including male classmates. He doesn't have physical contact with anyone. Apart from Owen, he has very few friends..." Eva suddenly stopped, as if remembering something, the smile on her face restrained, "I almost forgot Alex, that's a genius too."

Alex?

Zhen Ai had never heard Yan Su mention it.

Eva: "It seems to be his classmate when he was studying for a PhD."

Zhen Ai came back to her senses, Yan Su mentioned that it was the one who tricked Yan Su with the white line of the bomb.

"He didn't say a word to a lot of his classmates. I'm kind of 'lucky'," Eva rolled her eyes. "That's what the narcissist said, and his exact words were, 'Diaz, Although your IQ is only 143, I don't dislike you, don't you feel honored'..."

Zhen Ai listened and chuckled lightly, it really was his style.

She was suddenly very happy, if only one whole day could be dedicated to listening to Eva talk about the past.She really wanted to know what he looked like when he was in school.

But Eva changed the subject: "Ai, think about it carefully, is it normal for him to take you around?" She smiled, "Although SA treats you like we normal people communicate with each other, considering that he has never been normal , so, do you know how special you are to him?"

Zhen Ai's ears were warmed by her words, and she hurriedly washed her face with water on the pretext of washing off the lip gloss.

Eva followed closely: "Besides, at Wharton High School that day, I saw him holding your hand."

Zhen Ai was startled, that night, he didn't hold her hand, he pinched her breast, okay?Zhen Ai turned her head away and muttered softly: "It's because I almost fell."

After hearing her explanation, Eva recalled the past, and her face immediately turned gray: "I also slipped my feet last year, but when he stood on the stairs, his first reaction was not to pull me, but to take out his mobile phone and call 911 to call an ambulance."

Zhen Ai burst out laughing and quickly held back.

Eva didn't care: "The steps are only 10 steps, and there are no scratches. But he is a freak, I hate him for the rest of my life!"

Zhen Ai couldn't hold back her laughter again.

When she was about to go out, Zhen Ai suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, Eva, can I borrow your mobile phone to surf the Internet? I forgot to bring it."

Eva handed her the phone.

Zhen Ai kept thinking about Harvey's words in her heart, but the emergency mobile phone she brought couldn't access the Internet, and it was hard to ask Yan Su for an excuse for fear of his suspicion.Now I took Eva's mobile phone, and immediately searched for keywords, thousand miles, my medicine on the BBS of each campus.

I quickly found a post in many forums, titled tips to impress your girl (how to win a girl's heart), which listed a lot of love words.Among them are a lot of things that Zhen Ai is familiar with, and in her view, they are all threats.

The post first appeared 5 years ago in the high school where Zhen Ai had concealed her identity, and then spread around.

Zhen Ai looked at the content that had been reposted thousands of times, and didn't know whether to feel hopeless or relax.He said these words as early as N years ago, and he actually put them on the Internet for the students around her to learn.Everyday when someone talks about it, it reminds her of the old things all the time.

Heh, it took so much pains to frighten her and remind her in this way.

However, after thinking about it, could it be a coincidence that these few incidents happened?
But Jason's black and white lines were still unexplainable.

Although Zhen Ai could not be said to be worried at this moment, she was not very clear about it either.If it wasn't a coincidence that he found her, why didn't he just come and arrest her like before?
She couldn't figure it out, silently returned the phone to Eva, and went out with her.

The bathroom was quiet, and after a while, footsteps sounded.Someone walked up to the mirror and stood still, with dark eyes.His slender hands picked up a paper towel from the wastebasket next to the sink, and there was still a touch of pink lip gloss on it.

He held it in front of his lips, took a deep breath, and the corners of his lips seemed to have tasted the sweetest air, and the corners of his lips curled up wantonly and madly.

After a while, he took out a lipstick from his pocket with his other hand, and slowly wrote a string of words on the glass in the bathroom: for you, a thousand miles!

When Zhen Ai returned to his seat, Yan Su was very satisfied that he had completed the task excellently. He looked away, blinked his eyes, felt a little sore from staring for a long time, and raised his hand to rub again.

Zhen Ai was surprised: "Your eyes hurt?"

"No." Yan Su raised his eyes, and bumped into Zhen Aiyin's blushing face, he was weird for a while, and asked, "Why does your face look like tomato sauce?"

Zhen Ai: "..."

Is it okay to not add the sauce at the back...

Zhen Ai didn't answer, she looked embarrassed, but Eva looked satisfied, with the corners of her lips curled up.

Yan Su frowned and thought for a while, then asked in a deep voice, "Did Diaz hit you?"

Zhen Ai: "..."

After eating, saying goodbye to Danny Eva, Zhen Ai suddenly remembered that she had agreed with Owen to leave the laboratory at ten o'clock in the evening.It is now 09:30.

Zhen Ai's cell phone ran out of battery, so she still didn't borrow Yan Su's cell phone, so she hurried to the telephone booth on the side of the road to call Owen, and when the call was connected, she whispered: "Owen, you don't need to pick me up."

"Are you in New York?" He looked at the phone display.

"Well, I handed over the rest of the research procedures to Ryan." Zhen Ai's voice lacked confidence, she had never left work and ran around like today, she always felt that she was dereliction of duty and felt ashamed.

Owen heard her helplessness, softened his voice, and comforted: "It's okay, Ai, you can do whatever you want."

Zhen Ai blushed, and defended in a softer voice: "I didn't run around, I just," when lying, people's brains always turn very fast, "I came here because I'm going to be tried tomorrow. Just last time Hitting a police car."

Owen smiled: "If you don't want to appear in court, I can help you..."

"No need." She looked at the tall and thin black figure waiting for her outside the phone booth, she turned around while holding the phone, and when she lowered her head, she saw Yan Su's shadow stretched extremely long by the street lights, and his shoulder was leaning against at her feet.

Inexplicable feelings were rippling in her heart: "No need, I don't want to be special, just like ordinary people. Besides... Yan Su, come with me."

The last sentence made her ears warm again.

Owen's attention was on the word "ordinary person", and his heartstrings seemed to be plucked, and he suddenly felt emotional, yes, if Zhen Ai became an ordinary little girl, going to school and working without any worries Laughing loudly, that would be great.

Perhaps, she is also looking forward to it.

Owen didn't stop her, but he wanted to encourage her but couldn't, so he repeated stupidly: "Well, you can do whatever you want."

The next day was the trial day for the case of Yan Su and Zhen Ai crashing into a police car.It was only later that Zhen Ai discovered that being on trial with Yan Su was not a good memory.

In fact, Zhen Ai was quite nervous, and she didn't feel ashamed to sit in the waiting area of ​​the small court.

The banquet was full of people, all of whom were drunk driving, assaulting the police, smoking marijuana, making disturbances in the street and destroying official duties, and everyone was waiting to be judged in an orderly manner.

When she sat down, Zhen Ai saw the young people who were locked in the detention room with them at the beginning.They also recognized Zhen Ai and Yan Su, and the stunned young men were as excited as meeting old friends from other places, and ran over to say hello to Zhen Ai: "Hey, what a coincidence!"

Zhen Ai thought it was fun and agreed.

Yan Su was very calm, as if nothing happened, he just sat there in a daze.

The young man glanced curiously. Now that they were awake, they saw that Yan Su didn't look like someone who lifted someone's skirt, so they asked Zhen Ai in a low voice, "Why are you locked up?"

"Oh, we crashed two police cars." Zhen Ai was very sincere.

The boys all stared wide-eyed. After a while, they raised their thumbs up and praised: "Cool!"

Zhen Ai felt more and more that they were too pleasant, so she laughed, and just about to say something, Yan Su's cold voice came over, ordering Zhen Ai: "Don't listen to what they say."

Hum, what's so funny about what they said.Look at your cheerful and silly look.

Zhen Ai didn't understand, so: "Why?"

Yan Su pursed his lips tightly, his expression was very calm, but he could also see a bit of discomfort from the lightly furrowed brows.

Zhen Ai didn't understand why he lost his temper suddenly and thought about it for a while, oh, it couldn't be the last time in the detention room, these young people said he lifted someone's skirt, right?

Zhen Ai was immediately amused, and just about to make fun of Yan Su, she never thought that before she spoke, he would categorically despise her: "Hmph, because they are stupid."

A few young Jons grimaced and waved their hands to show their presence: "Uh, we can hear you!"

Yan Suli ignored them, just looked at Zhen Ai, with an expression of resentment: "And you, you are already stupid enough. Talking to people with lower IQ than you, you will be even more stupid. "

The implication is, look at me, look at me, look at me, I have a high IQ, you should talk to me more.

But Zhen Ai didn't hear it...

She said to him: "You, you can talk about your IQ. If you have the ability, talk about something else!"

Yan Su discussed with her seriously:
"Miss Zhen Ai, what I just said is actually very easy to refute. You just need to say 'hmph, my IQ is lower than yours, you have been talking to me for so many days, have you become stupid?'... In this way, I will will be speechless."

"And you, because I have nothing to say, will gain a sense of accomplishment in logic and verbal contests. In this way," he rubbed his nose shyly, "you will be very happy, and then you can smile at me Yes. Cough, this kind of smile is meaningful."

After all, he gave those young men a cold look, which meant that it was meaningless to laugh at them and should be avoided!
Having said that, Yan Su sighed for his thoughtfulness.However, although he created such an excellent condition, Zhen Ai didn't appreciate it, and he had to maintain his dignity.

He shook his head regretfully, and his tone was full of compassion, "I managed to say something illogical and unreasonable. You didn't catch this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Miss Zhen Ai, I deeply regret it."

The hairs of the boys sitting in front of them stood on end: This man's mind is definitely not normal!

Zhen Ai: "..."

He was trying to annoy her, no, he wasn't that boring; Zhen Ai could predict that he really wanted to collide with her words.It's just that his way of thinking and communicating is really... irritating.

Zhen Ai put on a dull face and stopped talking.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Yan Su frowned deeply, what's wrong with her?
He sat up straight and thought about it for a long time. After collecting all disciplines of social psychology, logic, code, biochemistry, he still couldn't analyze it.

He frowned, and touched her arm slightly: "Zhen Ai."

The latter stared ahead, ignoring him.

After a second, he pushed her: "Zhen Ai."

After a second, she bumped again: "Zhen Ai."

Zhen Ai turned her head impatiently: "What are you doing?"

Yan Su was taken aback, blinked, and said, "What I meant just now was not to despise your IQ."

Zhen Ai continued to remain expressionless: "...this sentence is really comforting."

Yan Su thought for a while, then slowly said: "Well, I can tell that this sentence is ironic."

Zhen Ai immediately glared at him angrily,

He was taken aback for another moment, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, he coughed, and continued to explain:

"You see, in my most beloved subject, I leave you with my least likely logical errors to contradict me. What a, ahem, kinship. Well, you're my friend , in fact, I am, um, expressing... intimacy to you."

The boys at the front looked at each other in horror: I have searched all over the world, has anyone expressed intimacy like this! ! ! !

But Zhen Ai had already understood his psychology long ago, and she was just arrogantly angry.Now he was coaxing her in a low voice, and he explained it so clearly, she secretly rejoiced, her face was dyed very light red, she pouted and looked away to the other side, and snorted: "You freak!"

But there was a bit of reproach and clumsiness in the words, and as soon as I heard it, I knew I was reconciled.

The boys burst into tears: This is unscientific!
Seeing that she had recovered, Yan Su slightly curled the corners of his lips, and continued to think about his own affairs.

Zhen Ai obediently sat in her seat, waiting for the trial.

Sitting and sitting, the original relaxed mood gradually disappeared.In front of so many people, the judge has to read out the mistakes made by the defendant and the result of the punishment.This is too... embarrassing.

Although everyone made small mistakes, looking at the entire court, she is the only woman who is waiting for trial today.No matter how late she was, as time went by step by step, she only felt red in the face.

Just as she was hesitating whether to run away, the judge had already read their names:
"SA Yan, Ai Zhen."

That's too late.

Zhen Ai stood up bravely, and walked to the trial platform in the center of the court together with Yan Su. Under the eyes of the whole court, she wished she could lower her head to the ground.

Different from her, Yan Su actually stood up straight, tall and straight like a tree, strong and energetic, totally ignorant of his situation.
