Chapter 47: The Shadow of the Thief

I was suddenly stunned when I heard Sun Shiqi's words, looking at her slightly red face, lowering her head and fiddling with her clothes, like a little daughter-in-law who had just married into the door and saw her in-laws.

"You don't have to force it, it will die without my body, I want to see what it can do to me. I looked at Sun Shiqi and said, my heart was full of gratitude.

"It's all because of me, or let me do it. Sun Shiqi said softly.

"Knock knock, let the girl help you, if the shadow illusion is really out of your body, I'm afraid it will hurt you, you still seal it as soon as possible, and one day, you can wake up the shadow spirit, and then it's not too late to ask for an understanding, then it won't be able to do anything to you, now your body doesn't allow you to force you, you still have very important things to do, and the secrets of the Xian family still have you to unravel." ”

Grandpa Tai said and stood up, looked at me and Sun Shiqi and continued.

"You and the girl discuss when to go to the dream, when you fainted, I have temporarily sealed it for you, but the seal will not be too long, you go back to the city as soon as possible to find the girl's shadow, Dong Dong you should be fine after a while, I will go back first, tomorrow is the first day of the new year, you come to my house, I will give you a New Year's gift." ”

Grandpa said and walked out the door, I wanted to get up to see off Grandpa, but my body was very heavy and I couldn't get up, so I could only say to Grandpa on the bed, "You go slow on the road." ”

"Your uncle is waiting for you down there, you can rest. Grandpa said and went out.

Sun Shiqi got up and sent my grandfather downstairs, I lay on the bed and thought about what my grandfather said, is this illusion a fulfillment of me being with Sun Shiqi? I was a little excited in my heart, then the price was too great, I thought about it and fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, it was already noon, Sun Shiqi was sitting on a chair lying on the table and reading a book, she was wearing a black pullover with her hair coiled, wearing a black jumper, wearing a coat, I looked at her seriously from the sideways, I thought she was so beautiful, I just lay on the bed and stared at her, she suddenly closed the book, closed her eyes, raised her head and remembered something, her appearance reminded me of a nun in prayer.

I coughed softly, and she opened her eyes and turned her head to look at me.

"You're awake. She whispered.

"Well, what book are you reading?"

"I'm reading a novel. ”

"What novel?" I struggled to sit up.

"Norwegian Wood" by Haruki Murakami. She replied.

I secretly read this book "Norwegian Wood" when I was in junior high school, and when my mother found out because I was reading this book, she also taught me a lesson, and there are some more straightforward love descriptions in it.

"Where did you see it? Did Naoko go to the sanatorium? I asked, and there was a hint of surprise in Sun Shiqi's eyes, she didn't expect me to read the book.

"Go, knock knock, do you think memories will make you never be able to get rid of yourself?"

"Look away, don't always think about the past, or you'll never get rid of it, just like Naoko. ”

"But I just can't forget my past. Sun Shiqi said with her hands covering her face.

"I really want to go to a sanatorium like Naoko went to, isolated from the world. ”

"Can you tell me about your past?" I asked tentatively, and I knew from my grandfather that Sun Shiqi's past had many painful memories.

"Maybe it's good to say it. ”

Sun Shiqi rubbed her face with her hands, and then looked at me with a somewhat melancholy expression,

"I decided to bury my past forever in my heart until I died. ”

Sun Shiqi stood up and looked at the endless mountain peaks in the distance outside the window, and let out a long sigh.

"Knock knock, can you go? Go downstairs to eat, your mother has come up twice. ”

I tried to get out of bed, I still felt a little dizzy, but I should be able to walk, Sun Shiqi and I slowly went downstairs to the living room.

The meal was just ready, and my mother was about to go upstairs to see me again, and when she saw me coming down, my grandmother beckoned me to feel like eating and supplementing nutrition, and my mother began to babble and say some words to supplement nutrition.

I went out into the yard after dinner to bask in the sun, and as soon as it was the New Year's Day, the weather was warmer, much warmer than the first two days we had just arrived.

At this time, an unknown woman walked into the courtyard of my grandfather's house, and when she came in, she shouted:

"Uncle Xian, have you lost something recently, our man caught a thief yesterday. ”

I looked at this woman in amazement, probably in her forties, slightly chubby, not tall, wearing a beige coat, black pants, and freshly permed hair.

The woman looked at me, smiled at me, and walked into the living room, out of which Grandpa walked.

"Zhang's daughter-in-law, you came over like this, you said Xiaobin caught the thief?" said the grandfather, looking at the woman.

Grandpa let the woman into the living room, and I followed in curiously.

Sun Shiqi and her grandmother had already gone upstairs, and there were parents sitting in the living room, and the woman nodded when she saw her parents smiling, and stood at the door of the living room without sitting down.

"Yesterday afternoon, my man and his brother chased the car, the three people in the car were thieves, and when they arrived at the deserted temple in the mountains, there was no road, and the road was steep when it was dark, and the car broke into the stone statue in front of the temple, and the two people in the car ran away, and the remaining one was knocked unconscious, and was tied up by my man and his brother, and brought back the things in the car. ”

The woman's eyebrows fluttered, and her hands kept being alive.

"My family recently lost a wooden sword, you've seen it, and there's a painting. ”

Grandpa sighed as he spoke.

"Wooden sword, there is a wooden sword that I brought back, but there is no painting, you go with me to see if it was lost by your family. ”

When Grandpa heard this, a smile appeared on his face and he said:

"Quick, take me to see it, it's my family's ancestral wooden sword.

The woman said as she walked out the door, and as she walked, she said:

"Uncle Xian, you go and take a look first, everything is in my house, and that person is still tied up in my house, and he will be sent to the police station in a while. I'll go to a few of them and ask again. ”

Grandpa put on his coat and told Dad to go to the woman's house, I followed curiously, crossed two streets, came to the woman's house, there were many people around the door, I followed Grandpa and Dad into the courtyard gate.

"Uncle Xian, are you here, do you have anything you lost?" said a man.

"Xiaobin, let me take a look at the wooden sword. Grandpa said anxiously.

"Wooden sword, there is one, you come with me, and I will send it out for registration in a while. ”

We followed Zhang Bin into the door of the house, and saw a pile of things on the table, a wooden sword pressed underneath, Zhang Bin took out the wooden sword and showed it to his grandfather.

"This is not my wooden sword. Grandpa said disappointedly.

This wooden sword is well made, but it doesn't look the same as my wooden sword.

"I'll take a look at the thief. Grandpa said.

"The thief locked it up in the storeroom in the backyard, and my brother guarded it. If you see me take you. Zhang Bin said and led us to the backyard.

When we arrived in the backyard, we saw that the door of the warehouse was open, and Zhang Bin immediately ran in, and heard shouts from inside.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you, come on, the thief has run away. ”

A few of us hurried to the storeroom, which was a little dark, with a mess of miscellaneous items, a rope on the ground, and a middle-aged man lying on the ground.

Zhang Bin and we helped his brother up and asked him to sit on the stool, and the grandfather pinched his man, only to see that the man took a deep breath, his eyes slowly opened, and there was a look of fear in his eyes

"Brother, I saw a ghost. ”

We looked at him, and Grandpa said:

"Second, you make it clear, what did you see, that thief. ”

"Uncle Xian, after the thief woke up, he said that he wanted to drink water, and I came in with the water to feed him a drink, but when I was feeding him water, a ghost suddenly appeared in the shadow behind him and pounced on me, pinching my neck, and then I fainted. ”

"Illusion. I said to myself.

Grandpa gave me one look and told me not to say anything about the illusion.

"Can you tell me about the thief you caught?" said Grandpa.

"There is a photo, I took a photo of him with my mobile phone and sent it to Officer Zhang at the police station. Zhang Bin said and took out his mobile phone and opened the photo album to show his grandfather.

Grandpa squinted his eyes and looked at the photo on his phone, and suddenly said with a shocked expression on his face.

"That's him. ”
