I Really Like That Guy!
Vol 4 Chapter 8:
When he got home from the playground, it was about five o'clock in the afternoon when Arlo got off the bus. After thinking about it, he turned around and went to Tangxin.
As soon as you enter the door, you can smell the sweet fragrance in the air, and the breath is sweet.
There was only the clerk behind the counter, and there was no person A Luo wanted to see, so she wasn't too disappointed, after all, she was used to Xie Wunian's elusive appearance.
She bought a cup of milk tea and walked home while sipping on the milk tea.
When approaching Hailan Community, several wild cats ran out of the bushes on the side of the road, chasing by A Luo, with light and silent footsteps.
The sun in late autumn is bright, but not scorching hot. The warm golden sunset shines down on houses, trees, and pedestrians, as if covering the world with a veil.
The leaves of the sycamore tree turned yellow, withered one by one, and fell on the red and green pavement, making a squeak when you stepped on it, as if you were chewing extra crispy potato chips.
There were naughty children with their heads lowered, deliberately stepping on those leaves, as if they were playing a game.
The slight wind blows, the lukewarm temperature is comfortable and pleasant, and it brings the rich cinnamon from nowhere.
A Luo just walked slowly, bathed in the gentle wind and sunshine, but his heavy heart could not be relaxed.
After listening to that story, she thought of Xie Wunian, and the younger sister he mentioned, and finally understood why he worked so hard to send her home every day.
I'm afraid it's like being bitten by a snake once and afraid of a well rope for ten years.
She couldn't describe how she was feeling at the moment. After thinking about it for a long time, she could only sum it up with the word "distressed", but she also knew that Xie Wunian didn't need her pity, he was not a weak person.
A Luo is a little tangled that she didn't know how to get along with him for a while. Now that she knows about this, can she still behave naturally in front of him in the future?
Thinking of this, fortunately, I didn't see him in the store just now.
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, a man appeared in his field of vision. He was tall and slender, dressed in a black trench coat, and only had a pair of shoes that were barely white. The man's expression was as calm and peaceful as usual, and he was walking on the sidewalk with the camera in his hand, just in front of A Luo.
Arlo's footsteps suddenly stopped, standing still.
The other party should have seen her too. He walked over step by step and stopped when he came to her.
"Thank you boss." Arlo called him naively.
Xie Wunian was always very sensitive to people's emotions, maybe it was his expressions. His black eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes squinted carefully on Arlo's face, and he replied lightly: "Well, did you not have a good time today?"
A Luo hurriedly shook his head: "No, very happy."
Hearing what she said, Xie Wunian nodded slightly and stopped asking. Even though he could already see that the other party had a heavy expression and seemed to have something on his mind.
Adolescent girls are always preoccupied and do not need to go too deep into it.
What's more, Jiang Luo didn't have a very close relationship with him. Although he sent her home every day, it was only out of a moment of sympathy, and he didn't really regard the other party as his sister.
After the close contact, Xie Wunian quickly discovered that Jiang Luo and his sister were actually very different.
In this world, no one can replace another, just like no two identical leaves can be found on a tree. Even though Jiang Luo and his sister have similar external conditions, they are two completely different people on the inside.
Jiang Luo was quiet and restrained on the surface, but if he got acquainted with her, he would let go a lot. Jiang Luo doesn't like sweets very much. Every time I go to Tangxin, I usually order fruit tea instead of milk tea. I also eat less cakes, usually for friends. Jiang Luo's cuteness is just a shell on the outside. She looks like a sensible and good girl, but she actually has a strong curiosity about the world.
She is a very standard kind of child whose nature has been suppressed. She is also a single-parent family. She has learned to disguise herself, while his sister is a girl who is truly as soft and quiet as a jasmine flower.
"Boss Xie, what are you doing every day when you go out?" In a trance, the girl's voice came from her ear.
Xie Wunian opened his eyes slightly, and saw the girl's bright and clear eyes, her eyes were always bright, containing the light of curiosity and inquiry.
He said calmly, "Go take pictures and visit some people."
"Are you a reporter?"
Xie Wunian shook his head lightly, "No."
He was concise, and seeing that he didn't want to talk about this topic in depth, A Luo naturally saw it. Combined with the information she already knew, it was easy to draw a conclusion: Xie Wunian may have been investigating the truth of his sister's death for the past two years. He walks outside every day, he should be looking for the insider of the year, or some clues in the past.
But time flies, and time has long buried the past. Can we still find any clues about the case two years ago?
A Luo was very skeptical and hesitant to tell him what Li Siqi told him today.
While hesitating, Xie Wunian said, "I'll go back if I'm fine, and you should go home early too."
A Luo pursed his lips, but in the end he didn't speak. He just watched him pass her by, the long back gradually drifting away.
When I got home, the house had been cleaned, the laundry was hanging out on the balcony, and there were cooked meals in the kitchen refrigerator. Allo needed to heat it in the microwave to eat.
After taking a shower and putting on a soft nightdress, Arlo took out his phone and sent a message to Li Siqi.
A Luo: Si Qi, is the senior sister you talked about today, do you still have the photos taken at that time? Can you send me a copy?
Li Siqi replied quickly: ? ? What do you want this for? ?
Arlo: I'm a little curious.
Li Siqi: That photo is terrifying, I dare not even look at it, do you really want it?
Alo: Really, just send it to me.
Li Siqi: Wait a minute, I'll look for it, I remember that I uploaded it to the cloud, and I have to download it again.
After a few minutes, Li Siqi sent several photos, not the one she said, but four or five in total, the scene of death taken from various angles.
A Luo didn't look carefully, and quickly saved a few photos.
Li Siqi: Have you saved them all? I withdraw. It doesn't look like an ordinary infiltrator.
Before A Luo replied, the other party quickly retracted several messages.
As if wanting to change the subject, Li Siqi said: Jiang Luo, there will be a parent-teacher meeting after the mid-term results are out. Will your mother come by then?
A Luo Hui: I don't know, I haven't asked her yet, wait for me to call and ask.
After exiting the chat software, A Luo called Mama Jiang, and the other side was quickly connected. A Luo told about the parent-teacher meeting. The receiver was silent for a while. Mama Jiang said helplessly that she might not be able to come next week. It was important that she had to go abroad to discuss a big business.
A Luo was quiet, as he has done countless times in the past, and said softly: "Then mom, you are busy, the parent-teacher meeting is not very important, don't worry about me, I have a good life here, and I can keep up with my studies. No problem."
Jiang's mother's voice was full of guilt: "Lolo, I'm sorry, my mother will definitely see you when she has time."
A Luo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your mother."
After the call was over, the phone showed that there were unread messages, and Arlo clicked in to see that it was Li Siqi who was asking her how she was doing in this exam.
A Luo: It should be not bad, if there is no accident, it should be in the top five.
Li Siqi: Niu, sister, I feel okay this time. Didn't you give me a question before the exam? You bet on several major questions correctly. You are really strong.
Arlo smiled and returned to somewhere.
The two just chatted and gag, until Li Siqi said that he was going to eat, the conversation came to an end, and A Luo exited to open the album and look at the pictures.
When she was just saving it, she took a few glances, and it was indeed as Li Siqi said, very scary.
The girl in the photo is lying on her back, as Li Siqi said. She was wearing a long white dress, probably because the skirt flew up during the fall, and when it fell, the skirt lifted up, revealing her calf and a section of thigh. The girl's flawless skin was covered with cyan and purple. Mark of.
She has a delicate face, calm facial features and soft eyebrows. She is the type that looks good at first glance. She has only one face that is terrifyingly white, like paper. She opened her eyes slightly, and under her curled eyelashes, she stared blankly at the sky.
It can be seen that there is no pain in the girl's expression. Even though she is facing death, the corner of the girl's lips is slightly raised, with a hint of a smile, and there is only peace and tranquility on her face, as if death is not terrible, but a relief.
If you ignore her twisted thin arms and the blood-red color that spreads out from the back of her head, this scene is actually very beautiful.
But it was also that dark red blood color, against the girl's snow-white dress, and her pale but smiling face, which made this picture especially eerie.
A Luo is not a professional, and I can't see anything from these photos, but my mood is getting more and more depressed. Looking at this young girl whose life was early in her teenage years, she imagined everything she had encountered. I felt a wave of sadness and anger enveloped me.
After watching for a few minutes, Arlo backed out and stored the photos in the cloud.
That night, Arlo slept very early. She was in a bad mood and didn't do much homework. She climbed into bed early and fell into a deep sleep.
She had a dream, a very strange dream.
There is a familiar person in the dream, that is, Tang Xin's boss Xie Wunian, but he looks completely different from the real boss Xie in the dream. His face is always calm and broken, and the bottom of his eyes is stained with extreme. Madness and hatred.
The man was wearing a white shirt and white slacks. Except for his black hair and black eyes, his entire body was pale.
With a sharp blade in his hand, he was slowly swiping at a person, his posture was like a piece of beef and mutton, the dripping blood dyed the hem of his clothes red, but he did not change his face, with a faint smile on his lips Intentionally, he asked in a low voice, "How do you feel about Ling Chi?"
A Luo was also in this dream, she was like a bystander, curled up in the corner to watch all this, her heart was full of boundless fear.
I don't know how long she watched, and finally, she woke up from a terrible dream, covered in cold sweat.
The nightgown was soaked with sweat, sticking to his body sticky, and a ray of morning light penetrated through the window. A Luo slowly sat up from the bed, the beating heart in his chest trembled violently, but his mind became a little dull.
Just now, she seemed to have had a nightmare, in which she had thanked the boss.
And then... what else? Seems like I can't remember clearly.
