Chapter 28: Life and Death
It's Mid-Autumn Festival.
As the second largest traditional festival after the Spring Festival, early in the morning, the whole city is shrouded in a festive atmosphere, looking from afar, the shops on the street have hung all kinds of lanterns at the door, supermarkets, food stores, etc., are also full of all kinds of brands of moon cakes, everyone has joy on their faces, or two couples, or three or five groups of family members, all go shopping, walking, shopping; Hang up the lanterns and get busy getting ready for the feast that is to come in the evening.
I sat in the bridge hole, silently watching, feeling the eager breath, without saying a word.
To be honest, I am very reluctant to this festival in my heart, others say that the Mid-Autumn Festival means reunion, but other people's families, whether they are elders working outside or children who are studying, are all back in Shatian, and they are reunited, but I am alone, lonely, incompatible with that atmosphere, and it is completely two extremes.
Therefore, although the whole city will be brightly lit that night, guessing lantern riddles, visiting the flower market, putting lanterns, appreciating osmanthus flowers, and all kinds of fun programs, I can't be interested at all, and I sleep in the bridge all day.
And just like that, in the evening.
It was about seven o'clock, and it was just getting dark, and all of a sudden, I heard someone outside calling my name, and I poked my head out, and I saw a man standing below, looking at me with a straight smile.
It turned out to be Zhou Dong!
My face sank and I said coldly, "How did you find me?"
Zhou Dong smiled and said that you didn't deliberately hide, isn't it easy to find you?
I don't want to talk nonsense with him about what you want to do?
Zhou Dong waved his hand and said that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, don't you have a sad face, okay? Lao Tzu originally wanted to tell you something interesting, it seems that you don't want to know.
My heart jumped, and I instinctively felt that something was wrong, and I got up from the ground in an instant, and I was about to jump off the bridge.
It's just that Zhou Dong immediately stopped me, saying that Lao Tzu is only one person, and he will definitely not be able to beat you, if you come down, Lao Tzu will not say anything.
I resisted the urge to kill this grandson and stood still.
Zhou Dong showed a playful expression, and said I heard that a girl from our class recently transferred to another school, named Li Shuang, who is beautiful, and has a good relationship with you?
I immediately heard that something was wrong, my face changed instantly, and I scolded: "What did you do to Li Shuang!"
Zhou Dong smiled and said It's none of my business, I'm just here to deliver the letter. As he spoke, he took out two phones from his trouser pocket and threw them at me.
I caught these two phones, and when I looked closely, my whole heart immediately sank to the bottom.
I recognized it at a glance, the mobile phone on the left hand is Li Shuang's, because the phone case is printed with her own photo, and on the right hand is Hu Jiaqi's mobile phone, I saw her take it out every day to play, even the ice sculpture-like pendant at the tail was asked by her to help install it.
At this time, a mobile phone rang in my hand, I looked down and saw that it was Li Shuang's, and immediately pressed the answer button and put it to my ear, and soon a man's feminine voice came from the phone: "Qiao An? Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
I was shocked and angry: "Zhao Peng, what did you do to Li Shuang!"
"Oh, it turns out that her name is Li Shuang?" Zhao Peng let out a lewd laugh, "Sure enough, people are as white as their name, their skin is as white as frost, and they can't stand it just by touching it." ”
As soon as the words fell, Li Shuang's frightened cry came from the other side of the phone: "Qiao An, hurry up and save me, I, I'm so scared......"
Immediately, the voice changed to Zhao Peng's, it should be that he took the phone back, and sneered: "Qiao An, I am now in the Sanctuary Amusement Park, you are limited to come over within half an hour, let's settle the past accounts, one minute in the evening, you just wait to collect Li Shuang's body." Plus, I have a lot of eyeliner, so you'd better not call the police, or you'll be responsible for the consequences!"
Before I could speak, Zhao Peng had already hung up the phone, I was six gods and had no master, and I didn't know what to do, when suddenly, Hu Jiaqi's mobile phone also rang, I trembled and pressed the answer button, and a low male voice immediately came from inside, and said with a smile: "Boy, do you recognize my voice?"
I clenched my fists and trembled with anger: "You are Xu Jian!"
"Well, it's me. The man on the other end of the phone smiled: "I think you already know the situation of another girl, I heard, it's called Li Shuang, right? You might as well tell you, it was I who told Zhao Peng her location, don't blame me for being very hearty, who let you provoke me? Do you know that since I was a child, even my parents have never beaten me, but you are such a dead poor ghost, stinky dick, you actually broke the bridge of my nose!"
On the other end of the phone, Xu Jian shouted in an almost roaring voice: "Lao Tzu has already said, don't let me catch the opportunity, otherwise you will definitely be worse than dead!" After a pause, he slowed down his tone again, and said yes, I forgot to tell you, Hu Jiaqi is in my hands, do you want to listen to her voice?"
Soon, after a rustling noise sounded over there, a sharp shout from Hu Jiaqi came: "Get out!
Then there was a crisp snap, it was obvious that Xu Jian slapped her, and then the phone changed to Xu Jian's voice again, "I don't want to talk nonsense, and I don't like to wait for people, so let's do it, I'll send you an address, and you can find this place within half an hour, of course, you can not come, anyway, Hu Jiaqi Hu Jiaqi can wait so long, it's still a question, hehe." ”
Doodoooooo –
The phone was disconnected.
I lowered my head and stared blankly at the two phones, a surge of blood, and my brain was so messed up that it seemed like it was about to explode.
Seeing me like this, Zhou Dong laughed loudly, his face was both hideous and happy, and said Qiao An, why didn't you think you would have this day, right? Let me tell you, Zhao Peng is fine, but Xu Jian is different, do you know what the rich second generation is? Oh no, he is not only the rich second generation, but I will definitely not tell you his identity, hahaha!
With a hideous face, I put away my two phones and began to climb down the bridge.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Dong immediately began to run back, laughing while running, saying that you are a dog, who is not good to provoke, you have to provoke Xu Jian, don't look at him as a student, he is ruthless, he really does everything, and after he finishes it, someone will settle it for him, you are looking for death by yourself this time, you can't blame others!
By the time I got down from the bridge to the ground, Zhou Dong had already run far away, of course I didn't chase him, but opened Li Shuang's mobile phone, found a map software from it, and searched for the words "Holy Church Amusement Park", and soon a navigation route appeared on the page, showing that it was 6 kilometers away from here, and it would take 35 minutes to run.
I didn't want to, so I ran in the direction of the navigation.
The lights are on.
Silver-white moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and crickets chirped everywhere. The scent of the night fills the air, weaving a soft net that envelops all the scenery inside. What the eye touches is covered with this soft net, and every plant or tree is not as realistic as it is in the daytime, and they all have vague, ethereal colors, each of which hides its subtleties, and keeps its secrets, giving people a dreamlike feeling.
At night, on the side of the road, I was running wildly.
Running, running, my strength was almost gone, my feet hurt, and I was panting like a cow. But looking at the navigation address on the mobile phone, it is only half of the way, and thirty minutes has passed.
My eyes felt like they were about to burst into flames, and my brain went blank.
I never imagined that Xu Jian and Zhao Peng would be so ruthless and would actually attack the people around me.
Now, Hu Jiaqi and Li Shuang are in different places, but the time given to me is only thirty minutes, which means that if I choose one of them, then the other will die!
What a painful choice.
I looked down at the phone in my hand, gritted my teeth, and ran again. I knew in my heart that at this moment, I didn't even have time to think, or rather, I didn't dare to! Because if I delayed for a second, the danger of the girl on the address would increase by a point.
My heart sank, but I couldn't help but think about the worst.
In this way, I ran for a few more minutes, and by the end of the run, my speed had become very slow, and my legs seemed to be filled with lead, heavy and heavy, but at a glance at the navigation, there was still a third of the distance left.
I had no choice but to continue running, following the navigation of my mobile phone, the route was sometimes straight, sometimes curved, going around in circles, and running for more than ten minutes.
Finally, I came to a playground, and the plaque at the entrance said "Sanctuary" on it, and my heart said that it had finally arrived.
It's just that at this moment, a large number of people are pouring out of the playground, and there is a panicked flow of people everywhere, as well as piercing screams, and the whole playground is in chaos.
I was so anxious that I grabbed a strange girl who came out of it and asked her what had happened?
The girl pointed behind her, said with a pale face, "There is a Ferris wheel in the playground that has fallen and fallen into the river next to it, and a girl is trapped in her seat and is about to sink into the water!"
