Chapter 68: Quiet

Shi Rujin took the phone, put it to his ear, sorted out his emotions a little, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to encounter such an exciting thing, I just pondered for a long time, and confirmed that my luck was not too bad, Mr. Qiu actually arrived at the most critical moment, and his skills were so good, he knocked down one of the gangsters with his bare hands, but people can't rely on luck all the time, I decided, go back and report a women's self-defense class, just be prepared!"

Qiu Yuting was still looking at Shi Rujin, his eyes were a little complicated.

Huo Wei didn't interject, almost calmly listened to Shi Rujin's chatter, and then spoke: "If you are scared, you will cry, why do you have to pretend that it doesn't matter, every time." ”

"I was a little scared at the time, but now it's much better," Shi Rujin said, got up from the steps, sighed, and said, "I'm going home to sleep, or Ji Tailai, tomorrow ...... It's another day!"

Huo Wei obviously couldn't hold back and asked, "Are you really not injured?"

Shi Rujin stroked the broken hair in front of his forehead with his hand, and replied half-jokingly: "I found that I was quite beaten, and now I have come back to life with full blood!"

Without waiting for Huo Wei to ask, Shi Rujin glanced at Qiu Yuting, who stood up with her, and said to the phone: "Don't say it, you have to return the mobile phone to Mr. Qiu, it will delay too much time, Aunt Qiu will come to Rongcheng tonight, when do you take time, we always have to visit the elders." ”

"You arrange the time," Huo Wei said, and after a pause, he said, "Hang up!"

I don't know what Huo Wei is in a hurry about, Shi Rujin didn't have time to say goodbye, he had already hung up the phone.

"Mr. Qiu, hurry up and go to the hotel!" Shi Rujin returned the mobile phone to Qiu Yuting, and couldn't help urging.

Qiu Yuting raised his head and looked upstairs: "I'll send you to the door first, you still have to be cautious tonight." ”

In the end, Qiu Yuting sent Shi Rujin upstairs very gentlemanly, stood in the elevator, watched Shi Rujin enter the house, and then left.

When he got home, Shi Rujin turned on the light, put his bag and the notebook he had been holding in his arms on the shoe cabinet, and then bent down to change his shoes.

After being stunned in the living room for a moment, Shi Rujin walked into the kitchen, boiled water, and ordered a bowl of noodles for himself.

After being busy for a while, Shi Rujin brought the noodles that had been made to the living room, reached out to turn on the TV, just like Shi Chenchen usually liked, sat cross-legged on the carpet by the coffee table, and lowered his head to eat.

This is just a bowl of very ordinary noodles, with little water in the clear soup, and the only garnish is a soft-hearted poached egg spread on the noodles.

The noodles quickly bottomed out, Shi Rujin picked up the poached egg, lowered his head and took a bite.

"Eat slowly, starve to death and reincarnate!" A woman's sneer suddenly sounded in Shi Rujin's ears.

Shi Rujin raised his head sharply and looked around.

There was no one else in the room, a drink commercial was playing on TV, and the soundtrack was a boy's rap.

Shi Rujin knew that he was hallucinating.

Finally finished eating, Shi Rujin sat at the coffee table for a long time, watched TV absentmindedly for a while, and then put away the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen.

After taking a shower and lying on the gear, Shi Rujin tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep for a long time, even if he was a little sleepy later, his brain was always chaotic......

In half a sleep, Shi Rujin seemed to see that he in the snakeskin bag had completely lost his ability to resist, and was stuffed into the car by the stout gangster, and the car rushed out lifelessly, and after a while, he drove to the wilderness, and in the blink of an eye, he ran wildly on the steep mountain road.

At this moment, Shi Rujin saw a thin girl sitting at the door of a dilapidated mud house on the hillside.

In front of the girl, a group of hideous-looking men and women gathered around, pointing at her with disdain.

"She's a broom star, she hit and killed, who knows who else she wants to hurt later, don't say it's a relative, I don't raise it anyway, you can do it!"

"Since no one is happy to care, in this way, the lame man in the front mountain has always told me that if he wants a woman, a broken pot with a broken lid, just send this girl over, let him be raised until adulthood first, and then what the lame man wants, that's their business!"

"It's a shame that you can say it, it's your niece, and this is piling people up in the fire pit? That lame man is usually weird and weird, I heard that when he is drunk, he is no different from a madman, not his own daughter, so you can pit hard!"

"That's nice, she's still your niece, so you can raise it!"

"It's a way to give people to the lame, the Lin family is out of business anyway, find a place for Xiaoru to settle down, we are worthy of her old man who ate the gun, this matter is decided!"

"Hurry up and send the people away, don't let her mess with us, how to divide the land of the Lin family, the big guy will discuss it, and quickly send someone to talk to the village!"

Shi Rujin looked at these people, but she felt surprised in her heart, she remembered very well that a terrible mudslide had swallowed up the entire village, could it be that they were resurrected again, just to want to ...... Push her to the brink again?

At this time, several women had already rolled up their sleeves and were ready to come up and catch the girl.

The girl seemed to react, and suddenly got up from the ground, like a lamb unwilling to die, and used her last strength to escape from the wolf's round-up.

"What are you running, what kind of mother you have, what kind of daughter you have, you were sent away, but you saved a village of men!" a woman laughed evilly, and put her hand around the girl's neck.

Before the suffocation approached, the girl, who had been silent, finally shouted hoarsely: "Mom, Mom, save me!"

Shi Rujin, who seemed to be in fear, pleased the so-called relatives in front of him, laughing wildly, scolding with foul language, and enjoying the pride of bullying a weak girl.

A soft song, accompanied by this desperate scene, resounded in the sky—

"Little flower chicken, don't crow; My family needs to sleep. The little moon hangs in the sky, and the little wicker swayes gently; My family sleeps well......"

Shi Rujin watched everything that was happening almost calmly, but the moment he heard the song, his emotions were out of control.

The girl's mother had already died innocently under her husband's knife, and no one in the world would call the girl "Nannan" anymore......

Shi Rujin woke up in his sleep and found that the pillow under his head was covered with a large patch, and turned the pillow over with his eyes closed, but he didn't expect the other side to be more damp, Shi Rujin opened his eyes and took the pillow to the side.

The sky was already bright, Shi Rujin sat up, felt astringent on his face, touched it with his hand, and his palm was stained with the tears of last night.

Shi Rujin didn't lie back again, sat at the head of the bed, his head resting on his knees, and didn't dare to sleep anymore.

That nightmare, after many years, resurfaced, still makes people feel like they have fallen into hell.

"Little flower chicken, don't crow; My family is going to sleep, little moon. Hanging in the sky; small wicker, gently shaken; My family is full of sleep......" Shi Rujin hummed unconsciously, it was the song that her mother coaxed her to sleep, Shi Rujin remembered every tune, but she sang too badly, it was so ugly to listen to...... Make her want to cry.

Tears welled up from her eyes again, Shi Rujin sniffled vigorously, she hadn't cried like this for a long time, maybe she hadn't thought about it for a long time...... His poor mother.

There was a sudden "pounding" sound outside the house, Shi Rujin was stunned, she was sure she heard the sound of the door opening.

Could it be...... Someone broke in?

After hesitating for a few seconds, Shi Rujin didn't care about wiping his tears, and quickly got out of bed, his first reaction was to run to the bedroom door and buckle the lock cylinder.

Then, Shi Rujin put his ear to the door and listened carefully to the movement outside.

A moment later, there was the sound of the toilet flushing through the door, followed by footsteps, but after a while, there was no movement.

Shi Rujin's heart began to beat wildly, cold sweat fell straight down his back, and the sorrow just now completely dissipated, replaced by the fear of being invaded.

After looking for a mobile phone in the bedroom for a long time, Shi Rujin reacted, she came home last night and forgot to take her mobile phone into the bedroom, even if she wanted to call the police now, she had to go outside to the living room.

Shi Rujin is not a person who sits still, at this time she calmly changed her clothes first, noticed that there was a long wooden strip used to build a hanger in the wardrobe, so she simply removed it and carried it in her hand, using it as a weapon for self-defense.

Shi Rujin decided to give it a go, at least get his mobile phone and call the police as soon as possible.

The sky was already white, and after leaning against the door and listening for a long time, Shi Rujin finally mustered up the courage to carefully unlock the bedroom door with a "click".

Opened the door a crack, Shi Rujin first observed the situation in the living room, and when she was sure that there was no one, she went straight to the door of the living room and roared to find her backpack on the shoe cabinet.

In a hurry, Shi Rujin took the bag in his hand, but the mobile phone inside slid out and landed directly, with a "bang", in the quiet living room, it was like a loud noise.

Shi Rujin was so frightened that she hugged her bag, and she didn't dare to move for a long time, and then she came back to her senses and moved to the door, if someone rushed over at this time, she could take the door and escape.

However, there was no terrifying scene in Shi Rujin's imagination, the room was quiet, as if Shi Rujin was alone, just like the previous movements, just her suspicions.

After a while, Shi Rujin bent down to pick up the mobile phone on the ground, and suddenly found that there was a pair of men's leather shoes lying on the ground.

After admitting for a long time, Shi Rujin exhaled with relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, hung the bag on the hanger next to him, swept his eyes around the room, and finally landed on the door of the second bedroom.

The wooden bar leaned against the wall, and Shi Rujin raised his feet and walked to the second bedroom.

Stretching out his hand to push open the door, Shi Rujin first looked at it, then lightened his steps, walked inside, and stood next to the bed where Shi Yanchen usually slept.

Huo Wei was lying there on his side, his face facing the wall, the quilt was half covered on his body, it seemed that he was sleeping soundly, Shi Rujin bent down, and he could hear his even breathing.

On the desk next to him, Huo Wei's clothes were piled up randomly, Shi Rujin noticed that Huo Wei was wearing Shi Chen's pajamas at the moment, and as for the bottom of the bed, a pair of Shi Chen's slippers were placed.

Is...... Familiar with the way!

Looking at the mobile phone still held in the palm of his hand, it was not yet five o'clock, Shi Rujin didn't intend to disturb people's dreams, and turned around to go out.

"What are you doing standing here?" Huo Wei suddenly opened his mouth, and after a long yawn, he said again: "It's not dawn, you want to be scary!"

"Woke you up?" Shi Rujin stopped and asked Huo Wei, who was looking at her with a sleepy face.

"What time is it?" Huo Wei turned over and sat up and asked.

"It's still early, you can sleep again!" Shi Rujin said, in fact, he wanted to ask how Huo Wei came in, but for the sake of him being too sleepy, Shi Rujin kept his mouth shut.

Huo Wei lay down again and asked, "Crying all night?"

"Who is crying?" Shi Rujin replied casually, but touched his face weakly.

Huo Wei said "um" noncommittally, hugged the quilt, and fell asleep.

Shi Rujin gently closed the door of the last bedroom, walked into the bathroom, and looked at herself in the mirror carefully, no wonder Huo Wei asked this, her eyes were red and swollen, and overnight, her face seemed to have gained weight.

After washing, he applied cold water to his face, and Shi Rujin decided to go downstairs to slow down a few laps to make himself sweat and remove the edema on his face.

Shi Rujin walked out of the doorway of the unit building, looked around, the steps were swept clean, and the road in front of him was also full of cars of various styles.

The scene that happened last night is no longer visible.

Walking down the steps quickly, Shi Rujin went to the edge of a grass field in front of him and began to warm up.

In the early morning community, the wind and the sun are beautiful, the greenery is verdant, because the sky is still early, most of the people who come out are exercising early, they are familiar with each other to say hello, chat a few words, the children who wake up early are being held by adults in a walk, there are puppies running with joy, and the owner pulls the rope to chase behind.

The quiet years around him have eased Shi Rujin's mood a little bit.

The two security guards walked not far from Shi Rujin and looked at her in unison.

Shi Rujin noticed people, and wondered because of last night's incident, and now she has become a celebrity in the community?

"Miss Shi, it's morning!" one of the security guards walked up to Shi Rujin.

"Good morning!" Shi Rujin responded politely.

"Miss Shi, let me ask you, your boyfriend's surname is Huo?" said the security guard, pointing to a gray car in front of him: "That car is his, right?"

Shi Rujin glanced in the direction that people pointed out, and vaguely remembered that it was one of Huo Wei's cars, but the security guard's question was a little difficult for her to answer, and her expression was embarrassed.

"When Mr. Huo came over last night, it was almost twelve o'clock, we weren't allowed to enter, Mr. Huo's attitude was really good, he took the initiative to show his ID card, and took out the key to your house and the access card, explaining that his girlfriend was frightened today, he was not at ease, and came to accompany him," the security guard smiled and said: "Later, I went to your house with him and watched him open the door." ”

Shi Rujin: "......"

"He's your boyfriend, right?" the other party didn't get an answer, obviously refusing to give up.

"Yes...... Friend. Shi Rujin said authentically, and his face turned red unconsciously.

"That's okay, I'll let him register at the sentry box when I go back, and next time your boyfriend can come in directly, we started last night, non-owners of the community entered, all registered ID cards, we officially received a notice, once a suspicious person is found, we must follow up the whole process, you can rest assured, there will be no more things like last night." ”

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work!" Shi Rujin immediately thanked others.

The security guard was a little embarrassed: "Miss Shi, we were negligent last night, and there was almost a big incident, by the way, our leader contacted the police early in the morning, it is said that another gangster has been caught, and the police have locked up the mastermind, not to mention, now the police are handling the case quickly!"

"Really?" Shi Rujin was also quite surprised, and then breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he would call the police station to ask about the situation later, who was the person with such a vicious mind.

After jogging a few laps in the community, Shi Rujin went outside to buy breakfast again, and when he got home, Huo Wei had already gotten up and was leaning on the sofa, lazily watching the morning news on TV.

"How do you have the key to my house?" Shi Rujin changed his shoes and asked directly.

Huo Wei turned his head to look at Shi Rujin: "Before Shi Chenchen went abroad, he solemnly handed over the key to me and arranged for me to take care of you." ”

"It turns out that kid," Shi Rujin laughed, and said casually: "When you go back, remember to leave the key." ”

"What do you mean?" Huo Wei looked a little unhappy.

"Someone suddenly enters your house at night, everyone has to be scared to death!" Shi Rujin said, putting breakfast on the coffee table.

"Therefore, girls are not suitable for living alone," Huo Wei looked at Shi Rujin who opened the breakfast in front of him, and did not go to help, staring at her and said: "Otherwise, I will move over, Shi Chen's bed will sleep quite comfortably." ”

"What are you kidding!" Shi Rujin said without raising his head.

"What do you think, I didn't say I wanted to live in your room. Huo Wei laughed out loud.

"Shut up!" Shi Rujin immediately screamed, feeling a little hot at the base of his ears.
