Chapter 304: Strange Alley

"I'm finally done, and I can do my homework!" At half past eight in the evening, Zhang Liying finally cleaned up everything and calmed down to complete a lot of homework assigned by the teachers of various subjects.

Sophomores in high school have so much homework that they can crush people to death. Zhang Liying not only couldn't find classmates to discuss her homework, but also had two more guys who would do something from time to time to interrupt her study......

Yan'er, who has only one word "eat" in his head, is going into the refrigerator to find food, and occupying the controller, Ji Ao, who has watched cartoons for a long time, is clamoring to change the channel, and after a while, Ji Ao shouted and said that Yan'er ran into the kitchen again to make trouble...... Zhang Liying, who studies in such an environment every day, can't help but lament, why is it so difficult for her to study hard?

But no matter what, the days have finally passed safely, and nine days after the start of school, the school has been moved, and an aristocratic school is near their new campus, and Zhang Liying has slowly adapted to this new rhythm of life.

After moving to the new campus, it was really strange that her father had been discussed by his classmates for a few days because of the corruption in prison, and he had been drowned out by the new gossip that a certain class of girls had committed suicide in anger because someone did not accept her love, and the peaceful life she wanted was finally restored.

Zhang Liying goes to class on time every day, goes home on time, and does housework according to the process she set, she likes such a regular life.

If it weren't for Ji Ao's daily upset words such as "...... after you die", "...... after you become a ghost", "you are an excellent ghost candidate, so from now on, you have to prepare for your career after death......" and so on, her life would actually have nothing to find fault with.

Actually, Zhang Liying still likes Ji Ao, a "cohabitant", very much. After all, a young girl lives alone, and safety is a big concern. There is such a big man as Ji Ao in the family, even if it is not embedded in the painting, it can give her a great sense of security.

In Zhang Liying's eyes, although Ji Ao always competes with her, he is kind-hearted and cares about her safety. At night, he didn't let Zhang Liying go out alone, and since the day she lived alone, he kept vigil for her every day.

While sketching out the contents of tonight's dinner in her mind, Zhang Liying turned into an inclined alley from a three-way intersection. Crossing this alley is a little more detour, but you can avoid a railway crossing in front of you and save ten minutes of waiting for the train to pass, which is the experience she has summed up in the past few days.

Although it is an alley, most of the place is still very spacious, and the road is also very good, the location is not remote, and you are familiar with the time when the train passes, and there are many people who come from here every day to bypass the railway crossing. Therefore, when it is time for school and work, this secluded alley becomes busy and congested, and traffic jams are frequent.

It took her about ten minutes to get here on her bicycle, and now there were fewer pedestrians and cars, but the street lights were bright, and the noise came from the people playing cards and chess under the lights.

Zhang Liying followed the flow of people, carefully bypassed a table of people playing mahjong, and finally turned into a fork in the alley. There will be a lot fewer people before that, and you can breathe a sigh of relief from that road to the vegetable market.

When she usually arrives, she starts to speed up her bike so that she can get to the market before the rush hour and get fresh vegetables. But today, her trip was interrupted by a scream that resounded through the alley.

The screams came from not far ahead, and when everyone was stunned when they first heard it, there was another scream, as if someone had seen or experienced something terrible.

"Robbery?" Hearing such a shout, this thought immediately jumped out of Zhang Liying's mind

In today's society, public security is a big problem, and since the beginning of the school year, He Jiang, who is a criminal policeman, has reminded her more than 200 times, and I heard him say that a robbery gang has recently appeared, specifically targeting students. Zhang Liying's nerves tense every day, afraid that she would accidentally run into these wicked people. Now hearing these two screams, she immediately thought about it.

This is not a dark and remote area without pedestrians, how can robbery occur? However, there are many robberies in the bustling city, and it is not impossible to rob in such a place. Zhang Liying thought as she involuntarily followed the pedestrians who were alarmed by the shouting and rushed in that direction together.

When Zhang Liying and a large group of pedestrians arrived, they saw a bicycle pressed against a person on the side of the road bleeding on the roadside, and books scattered next to a schoolbag that had fallen to the ground.

Next to this person who didn't know if he was dead or not, a boy wearing Zhang Liying's school uniform like him was standing with his mouth wide open, looking stupid, and the scream just now should have been made by him.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? This kid is very badly injured, whoever has a phone, call the police!"

"Whoever has a phone, call an ambulance, call 120, 110, hurry, hurry!"

"Hey, you can't go, this is your classmate, right? What's going on?"

"Yes, you have to make things clear! You can't leave! The police will be here soon!"

"I shouldn't be dead yet, call 120, 110!" enthusiastic passers-by surrounded him, some called the police, some called an ambulance, some notified reporters, and some stopped the boy standing next to the victim, did not let him leave, and told him to explain the matter clearly.

"He's covered in blood...... Is he dead? covered in blood...... He's dead...... So many bloody ......" Although the boy standing was tall, he was not very bold, he looked stunned, his face was pale, and he only said these few words when he came and went, and he couldn't ask the reason from his mouth at all.

Zhang Liying saw that they were from the same school as herself, so she couldn't help but watch it for a while. She didn't know either boy, so they weren't supposed to be sophomores.

When she saw passers-by stop a taxi that was willing to help and carry the injured person up, she relaxed a little and dispersed with most of the people watching the excitement.

When she left, the tall boy was still clutching his bag, muttering that he didn't know what he was talking about. Until the police came to take him into the police car, he still looked like he was scared out of his mind.

Probably robbed by him and his classmates, his tall figure couldn't protect his classmates...... It seems that you will have to be careful when you take this road in the future, Zhang Liying thought, and accelerated the speed of pedaling.

Suddenly, just as she was about to ride to the entrance of the alley, a piercing chill came from her wrist, and she let out a low cry of fright and almost fell off the bike. She only felt a chill spread down her arms and throughout her body, as if she had entered the harsh winter.

She immediately realized that the cold was coming from the bracelet on her wrist. It is an ordinary-looking bracelet with two small beads on it, tied with a red string. If someone knows the material of the bracelet, they will sneer at her who is always dissatisfied with social security, and the two beads on her bracelet are the two evil ghosts that were originally possessed by people, and they were subdued by her and Ji Ao, and condensed into ghost beads.

This ghost bead has always maintained this appearance of sealing evil ghosts, and only after getting it to the underworld will it be restored to its original state, and then face the judgment of the underworld. At any time, these ghost beads are cool and can be used as a "miniature air conditioner" in the hot season, so Zhang Liying made them into a bracelet and wore them on her hand.

Didn't Ji Ao say that as long as they didn't return to the Yin Cao, they wouldn't change? Why did this happen? Now the bracelet turned into an ice cave, constantly emitting cold air. She didn't have time to think about it, and she reached out to rip the bracelet off her wrist......

But the moment her fingers touched the bracelet, all the cold feeling suddenly disappeared and everything returned to normal. She was still in a hot evening, as if nothing had happened. If it weren't for the chill-stirred goosebumps on her arms, she would have thought it was all just her own delusion.

Zhang Liying held her wrist blankly and stood in the alley for a long time, she still had a lingering fear of events related to evil spirits, so her heart fell into chaos.

It wasn't until there were fewer and fewer pedestrians around her that she suddenly remembered that she was standing at the scene of a robbery that had just taken place and injured someone, and she immediately jumped on her bicycle and fled to her home as fast as she could.

As soon as she entered, her mood immediately calmed down. Ji Ao asked her what was wrong, she just said that there was a traffic jam, and she didn't say anything about the abnormal temperature of the ghost bead. If he did, he would definitely take the opportunity to pester her and say a lot of things about ghost hunting in the underworld.

Before she put the ghost bead on her wrist, she had consulted him again and again, and he assured and assured that as long as he didn't return to the underworld, even if the heavenly gods and the Western Buddha came, there was no way to change the ghost bead.

It must be because I'm too nervous, it must be because Ghost Bead senses that I'm in an anxious mood and wants to cool myself down, but it's too much, it must be like this...... Zhang Li thought about it again and decided to keep the ghost bead on her wrist.

"Have you heard......" As soon as Zhang Liying walked to the door of the classroom, she saw Tan Yiping, Zhang Weilin and Mu Qiuli talking together.

As soon as she came in, Tan Yiping immediately began to gossip with a mysterious face: "Yesterday afternoon, a student from our school was robbed, and now he is still in the hospital!"

"Ah, is the injury serious?" Zhang Liying was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that classmate's injury was so serious, and she had been in the hospital for a night, and she was not out of danger.

"The injury is serious, and I am still rescuing, and I heard from the teacher in the morning that I have not passed the dangerous period. The teacher said that it may be that the recent robbery against the students just happened to catch him up, and it was really unlucky. Mu Qiuli also hurriedly interjected, saying that she knew no less than Tan Yiping.

Since Mu Qiuli shouted at her and Su Yun loudly, she has been walking around when she saw Zhang Liying for several days. Maybe it's because she has a cheerful personality and doesn't hold grudges, so she took the initiative to talk to Zhang Liying a few days later.

Zhang Liying had few friends, and there were not many classmates who could even talk about it, and Mu Qiuli was quite close to her in the class. After she figured it out, she took the initiative to apologize to Mu Qiuli, and now the two of them are not only reconciled, but also seem closer than before on the surface.

"Have you found the murderer?" Zhang Liying anxiously took over the conversation, and Mu Qiuli and Tan Yiping shook their heads together.

"Poor King of Hearts, he was the first to find the wounded, he was too timid, but he frightened him, he didn't come to school today, I heard that he was scared sick. Zhang Weilin sighed.

"Who is the King of Hearts?" Zhang Liying blinked, threw her schoolbag on the table, squeezed into them and sat down.

"Tao Zhe, in our basketball team, he has the tallest face like a peach blossom, so he is called so. ”
