Section 270 Road Encounters
That night, Xu Yan drank too much wine, and he slept until nine o'clock the next morning. When he opened his eyes and saw the familiar room and bed at home, Xu Yan sat up from the bed and naturally shouted, "Xuan Yun, are you up?"
The room was quiet, there was no sound, and no one answered Xu Yan, Xu Yan could only hear his own echo rippling in the room.
Then, Xu Yan reacted, the girl who had been by his side, she was no longer there.
"Some friends are gone, and they will never see each other again in this life. ”
Xu Yan sat on the bed in a daze, and a burst of sadness suddenly surged in his heart. He stood up and walked into the living room of the room, staring at the other door in the living room—it was the door to the guest room.
It was also the room where Zhu Youxiang once lived.
During the time that Zhu Youxiang had stayed here, the door of this room was always tightly closed, because it was a girl's boudoir, and Xu Yan had never entered it—of course, he did not dare to go in.
When Zhu Youxiang stayed here, the closed door was mysterious and majestic to Xu Yan, even now, knowing that Zhu Youxiang had left, when he pushed open the door, Xu Yan still felt that he was in a strange mood.
The door was gently pushed open, and Xu Yan walked into the room lightly. He saw that the window of the room was closed, but the sunlight was still shining through the glass. Xu Yan looked around, and he saw that the room was neatly and delicately furnished, and the utensils on the bed—pillows, quilts, and sheets—were all neatly laid out, without a trace of wrinkles.
There was a desk in front of the window, and there were some books neatly arranged on it—all old textbooks of Chinese, mathematics, physics and chemistry that Xu Yan did not use, Japanese comic books that he had read, such as Pirate King Seven Dragon Ball Saint Seiya, and some messy magazines, science fiction magazines, and some fashion and financial chores, all of which Xu Yan bought cheaply when the library cleared its inventory. That pile of books, magazines. What used to be a mess on the table is now neatly organized and neatly folded on the edge of the desk.
Xu Yan looked in the room for a while, trying to find a trace left by Zhu Youxiang here. Then he was quickly disappointed - the room was so clean that nothing special could be seen. On the edge of the bed. The clothes I bought for Zhu Youxiang were all neatly stacked there.
Looking at the neatly folded clothes, in a trance, Xu Yan seemed to be able to feel that in every corner of this room, there was still Zhu Youxiang's orchid fragrance, and he seemed to be able to feel that the woman who was as fresh as cloves was still in this room.
Xu Yan stood in front of the window for a while. Looking at the scenery of the community outside the window, he imagined that he was Zhu Youxiang, and now he was looking at the scenery outside the window in the room, he saw the old man who was doing tai chi, the woman who was walking and playing with the child, and the young man and woman who were in and out of the line in a hurry.
Seeing this scene full of life, Xu Yan was stunned: the girl he liked left quietly. The world in front of him is still running peacefully, and the mysterious girl is withering like a flower. It was as if she had never appeared, leaving no trace in this world.
"No," looking at the world outside the window, Xu Yan shook his head: "The biggest change that Xuan Yun has left in this world is me." I am the proof that Xuan Yun has survived in this world. If I can't make a difference. If I am still as decadent and unsuccessful as before, then Xuan Yun's sacrifice will really be wasted. ”
stood in front of the window for a while, and suddenly, Xu Yan heard a mobile phone ringing from his pocket. He was stunned for a moment, then picked up his mobile phone and took a look, but it was the fat man Liu Yang who called.
"Hey, I said Yanzi, didn't you drink too much last night and couldn't get up, right?" Liu Yang's unbridled laughter came from the phone, which made people know that this guy was in a good mood, and he smiled: "Yanzi, what you said last night, doesn't that count?"
Just now he was still immersed in the thoughts of longing, Xu Yan really couldn't remember what he promised when he got drunk last night: "Ah, fat man, what are you talking about?"
The fat man shouted on the phone: "Ah? I knew it was like this, you drank like that drunk last night, and then you cried while drinking, crying so miserably, like you died -- you must have forgotten it! Yanzi, you must have forgotten about the fact that you earned 10 million last night, right?"
"Ten million?" Xu Yan frowned and thought for a while, as if remembering: "Oh, I seem to remember what you said...... What do I promise you? Oh...... I remember, I think I said to buy a car, right?
"Haha, you're not completely confused!How about it, now that you regret it, it's still too late!"
"Fatty, you really underestimate Brother Yan!" Xu Yan laughed: "Isn't it just a small car? what's the big deal, even if you want to buy a BMW Mercedes-Benz, it's a small meaning for Brother Yan!"
Seeing more of the world, Xu Yan's horizons have also broadened a lot, for him now, it is really not a big deal to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to give the fat man a small car - Gou Fugui is not forgotten, Xu Yan feels that since he has the ability and has gone to a higher level, it is natural to help his former good friends.
At that moment, Xu Yan hurriedly got dressed, drove his car out, and met Liu Yang at the front door of the school. As soon as they met, the two of them laughed and frolicked for a while, and then got into Xu Yan's car, and Xu Yan drove towards the city.
When passing near the school gate, Xu Yan suddenly saw that on the side of the street, for some reason, there was a group of people gathered there, men and women were crying and shouting, someone was holding a white cloth banner, with a line of bright red characters written on it, because the car was driving fast, Xu Yan didn't see what was written on the banner, but he could see clearly that many people in that group of people were wrapped in white cloth on their heads. Around the banner, a large crowd of students and passers-by were watching, and the road seemed very crowded.
Because Xu Yan was driving, he couldn't stop to see what he was doing, but he felt strange in his heart: this was the entrance section of Shudu University, and the usual management was very strict. The security guards are usually not even allowed to sell Malatang here, why is it that such a group of people are here to make trouble, and the security office of Shudu University and the police station of the university district don't care?
It's kind of weird.
Seeing Xu Yan slow down and look over there, Liu Yang also looked over. He sighed: "Yanzi, let's go, there's nothing to see." Concentrate on driving. ”
Xu Yan stepped on the accelerator, the car swept by, and he asked, "What's going on? Those people in white cloth are crying, what are they doing? Why don't the school care?"
Liu Yang asked Xu Yan not to look at it, but he couldn't help but look back again, and then replied to Xu Yan: "They should be Zhang Jingwan's family...... It's been almost a month since they came to the school to make trouble, and I've seen it several times, and they often put up this kind of banner around the school gate, and many people started to watch. There were so many people that even the roads were blocked. But now, they have been tossing for more than a month, and everyone is tired of watching it, so no one is watching. ”
Xu Yan was confused when he heard this: "Zhang Jingwan? Who is that? Is this person very famous?"
"Oh, I forgot, Iwako, you've been out of school for more than a month, and you don't know about this—this thing. It was a sensation in the school at the time. ”
"Ah, fatty. Tell me, what's going on?"
"Actually, this matter is also very simple, Zhang Jingwan is a girl in the third-level foreign language department of our school, and one night last month, she went to the library with two girls in the same dormitory to study at night. The three girls came out together, and someone saw them out of the library together...... As a result, on the way back to the dormitory from the library, all three girls disappeared. ”
"Missing?" Xu Yan was a little surprised: "This, I wonder where these senior sisters are traveling together, right?
Liu Yang shook his head silently. Although there were only him and Xu Yan in the car, he couldn't help but lower his voice, as if to beware of a non-existent third person, he whispered: "On the night Zhang Jingwan and their disappearance, several girls in the same dormitory saw that they hadn't come back late at night and didn't answer the phone, so they were a little worried, so they asked the counselor in the class to report the matter. But the counselor was also irresponsible, he had already fallen asleep, looking at the late days, the weather was cold, thinking that it was in the school anyway, nothing could happen, he thought that most of the girls who didn't return home at night were dating their boyfriends, right? He just called them a few times, but the phone didn't go through, so he went back to sleep.
Unexpectedly, until noon the next day, the three girls still did not come back. At this time, the counselor was in a hurry, and hurriedly went to report the situation to the college department and the school's security office, which attracted the attention of the school and notified the police station. The police station sent a few policemen to check on it, but they didn't find any clues, so they went back and registered it as an ordinary missing case.
Unexpectedly, on the third day, an old man who collected old clothes found a black bag in the garbage can on the school boulevard, and inside the bag was Zhang Jingwan......"
The fat man paused, his tone suddenly became gloomy, and at the same time, he stared at Xu Yan with blazing eyes, as if expecting to see Xu Yan's startled and frightened look: "...... of the head. ”
To Liu Yang's disappointment, when he suddenly heard such a terrifying thing, Xu Yan's only reaction was to raise his eyebrows slightly-if it was Xu Yan, a former otaku, maybe he was really frightened by the fat man's gloomy tone. But the problem is that Xu Yan now is completely different from him a month ago. In Wang Zhongmao's case alone, he has seen the human body and wreckage torn apart by the monster several times, and on the Japanese side, he has also killed people with his own hands.
Now Xu Yan, his psychological quality is very strong, just a head, that can't scare him.
After listening to the fat man's story, Xu Yan raised his eyebrows lightly and asked softly, "Only her head?"
Seeing Xu Yan's calm tone, the fat man himself lost interest in selling Guanzi, pouted and said, "I heard that this is the case." He was also playing basketball nearby, and he said that the old man who was picking up garbage was so frightened that he almost collapsed on the spot, crying and shouting 'help'. Seeing that the old man was scared away, Dashi and they didn't know why, and they also went to see the excitement, but they saw the head on the garbage can, and heard that the voice and appearance were still lifelike, and even the expression was very clear, so scared that he and a few buddies who played ball were scared on the spot, and it took a long time to dial 110 - later, Dashi told me, he said that it was good that it was during the day, and there were so many companions on the scene, even so, he went back at night and had nightmares for several nights in a row. He said that if he saw it alone at night, he would have been scared to death on the spot. ”
Xu Yan smacked his lips: "I cut off my head...... It's brutal. In this case, Zhang Jingwan was killed, but what about her two roommates who disappeared together?
"Well, I don't know. Anyway, the police came to check several times, and I also saw it that day, and there were a lot of policemen at the scene where the body was found, blocking a large area to search, and also brought police dogs, exploration instruments and other high-tech to come over, and searched busily for two whole days - but now, I heard that Zhang Jingwan's body was still not found, and the two girls with her were still missing, and everyone estimated that it had been almost a month, and they had not shown up, and it was estimated that there was more luck than luck. ”
The fat man sighed: "This kind of thing, think about it, a girl who is good at home, the family sent her to school, but she died in school inexplicably, and died so miserably, such a thing, the family must not agree." So, what you saw over there just now is someone from Senior Sister Zhang's family, and there are also people from the other two girls' families...... They have been making a fuss over there for several days, waving bloody red banners of 'return my daughter' and 'grass and human life', crying and shouting for injustice, making a lot of trouble!"
"Ah, they are so noisy at the school gate, and the school doesn't care?"
"School...... Hehe, how dare they take care of this matter? The school has already handled some problems, and the family members insist that the school's security measures are not strict, resulting in the murder of their daughter. In addition, the school's response was also problematic after the incident, and when the report was received that night, no measures were taken, delaying the most precious rescue time.
The family said that that night, if the counselor had reported the student that he had not returned home at night, and the school had immediately organized a search and rescue operation, perhaps the murderer would have been caught red-handed and their daughter had been rescued.
Xu Yan shook his head and said, "It's impossible." The situation in our school -- well, not to mention our school, is that in any university now, students don't go back to the dormitory at night to sleep, and there are many such things.
In our dormitory, including me, there were four people who rented houses outside the school, and there were too many boyfriends and girlfriends to live together and open houses. If there is a student who does not come back at night and has to organize a search and rescue team to rescue, then let alone the school's security office, I am afraid that all the police forces of the entire Jincheng Public Security Bureau have been transferred to our school, and I am afraid that it will not be enough!"
The fat man slapped his thigh and sighed: "Yes, everyone knows this truth, but you can't make sense with the family of the deceased! ”
Xu Yan pouted - although he was very sympathetic to the murdered senior sister and felt sad for their family, but Xu Yan really couldn't agree with their reasons - sympathy is one thing, but you also have to be reasonable, you can't say that because your experience is miserable and pitiful, what you do is reasonable.
Xu Yan said lightly: "This one is responsible...... Anyway, it's a loss of money, isn't it? How much does this family cost?"
"Hehe, they are really cheeky, and the number is really scared to death!" The fat man said happily: "10 million! The family of the deceased is determined to ask our school to pay 10 million, and their family - uh?!"
Halfway through the words, the fat man already knew that something was wrong, he quickly stopped, and glanced at Xu Yan embarrassedly, both of them saw embarrassment in each other's eyes - it also happened that the claim of the victim's family happened to be exactly the same as Xu Yan's lion opening last night......!
