Chapter 14: Peeping
When the sky was dark, Chen Xu's dinner began.
However, when faced with a large table full of delicious dishes, Chen Xu found that he had no appetite and could not sing. Even if he threw all his clothes aside, he didn't have any mood to eat.
Why is that?
Obviously, this is a concern in my heart and I can't eat it.
So Chen Xu frowned, put on his clothes again, walked to the window, and looked.
What can be seen is that in Zhou Zifan's house, the black light is blinding, and the people have not come back yet.
But what was very strange was that when Chen Xu stared at the past like this, his troubled mind immediately calmed down quickly, and a softness appeared in his eyes.
It's like a husband waiting for his wife to come home, staring silently.
He stood there and observed - if he just carried it straight and stared at it, after Zhou Zifan came back, after a little longer, she would definitely feel that something was wrong, and then looked at each other.
It's not good, it's bad.
Chen Xu didn't want to be exposed to Zhou Zifan's sight so early.
So!
Chen Xu's eyes flashed, and he quickly had an idea, his idea was to use three sheets, or quilt covers, to cover the space on three sides of the balcony, and cut a palm-wide hole in the middle for peeping, then it would be no problem.
It doesn't matter if it's ugly or not, the most important thing is that it's practical.
There is no big problem with this project, the main thing is how to fix the sheets on the balcony. Chen Xu spent about an hour on this, and finally renovated the balcony.
Very good!
Now everything is in place, only the east wind is owed.
Chen Xu was quite satisfied with the fruits of his labor, and while he was in a happy mood, he finally felt hungry, so he moved the food to the balcony and began to chew it slowly. Because he was concerned about whether Zhou Zifan would come back, he was restless when he wanted to eat this meal. From time to time, he frowned, staring at the palm-sized hole for a long time.
This situation lasted until about 10 o'clock in the evening, when it changed. All of a sudden, the light on the other side came on.
Chen Xu's eyes also lit up at the same time.
He saw that the moon tonight was exceptionally bright, and Zhou Zifan, under the moonlight, was extraordinarily graceful, with a warm atmosphere, rushing to his face. Chen Xu's eyes quickly moistened, God, it turned out that watching a good girl from afar at night could bring tears to her eyes.
What's even more amazing is that the girl didn't even know that there was a man on the other side, looking at her enthusiastically. So after Zhou Zifan returned to the house, she didn't even hesitate at all, and kicked the shoes on her feet into the air in two or three clicks.
She was like a girl who came home, barefoot, and threw her coat and bag directly on the sofa.
Then she walked over to the water dispenser and grunted her water.
After drinking the water, Zhou Zifan went to the back room and came out in a tight suit.
She walked directly to the window and closed the curtains, and through the silhouette of the light, she could confirm that she was doing gymnastics, and the figure on the curtain was like an elf dancing.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Zhou Zifan stopped bodybuilding, her figure disappeared, she should have gone to take a shower, because when she opened the curtains again, she was already wearing a set of loose casual clothes - this is the laziest time for women. She lazily carried a bucket and a jug, watering the potted plants on the windowsill, and at this time, she was as simple as a girl next door.
Zhou Zifan used her youthful and cheerful movements to complete the watering.
All right. Zhou Zifan should be resting. She stretched, looked and looked at the mirror on the wall, then turned off the light, went to the back room, and lay down on the table, writing and drawing.
This is...... God has opened his eyes.
Is she in, writing a diary?
It seems that she is.
No, it has to be.
At this moment, Chen Xu stood on the balcony, didn't move for a long time, he was muttering: Yes, that's it, after a tiring day, it's time for you to write down something, my baby.
This moment is too important for Chen Xu.
Extremely important.
Because he had observed a miracle that he had not dared to imagine beforehand.
This week, Zifan, still have the habit of taking notes?
What a surprise!
A girl who is used to keeping a diary, for his treasure hunt, is definitely ...... The greatest gift. It doesn't get any better clue than that.
Because in those notes, if you can look through them, you are almost ninety percent sure that you can find clues related to those two treasures.
It's a big deal, it's a great joy.
Originally, in Chen Xu's plan, he didn't imagine that Zhou Zifan would have the habit of taking notes, after all, in this era, who would take notes, that is almost extinct.
But for now, the ancestors bless!
God and Buddha bless!
She actually has such a good habit.
Now that we know that she has this habit, and that we can find clues by looking through our notes, it is not too late to quickly adjust our plans.
Chen Xu turned around, reheated the meal, and then poured himself a drink, he poured himself a bottle full of frothy beer, and clinked glasses with himself against the void. He wanted to celebrate what he saw tonight. He felt that he had taken another solid step forward today, which was really gratifying.
Next, Chen Xu is also calm enough.
For more than 20 days, he spent all of his time in the town, except for a sum of cash transferred back to the city every day, showing extraordinary patience.
He is not afraid of long time.
After all, no one knew that he had rented this house just to observe, and to observe a down-and-out girl on the opposite floor.
So it doesn't matter how long he stays here. As long as he can get those notes, Chen Xu can't help but care how much time he has spent.
No matter how much time it takes, Chen Xu is not afraid of anything, but he is worried that he will be in a hurry again.
Therefore, he restrained his heart from being hot, and just silently hid in the dark like a big vole every day.
During this boring time, Chen Xu has observed and understood more and more about Zhou Zifan. It was twenty-two days of silence. Except for one time, Chen Xu met Zhou Zifan in the courtyard. Fortunately, Zhou Zifan is a good girl who doesn't like to look at people. Her gaze was gentle and lazy, and she crossed directly over Chen Xu's face, and she didn't stop at all.
However, it's still dangerous.
In case Zhou Zifan recognized Chen Xu, she would definitely be shocked and shouted, "Why are you here?"
Chen Xu has already thought of the answer. He had to say with confidence, "I'm here to ask for my cigarettes." ”
After all, it was a pack of good cigarettes worth 125 yuan, and it was normal for him to come and go, which was completely a good reason.
But fortunately, the worst thing didn't happen, Chen Xu avoided the confrontation, he became more cautious, when he went out, a peaked cap and a pair of cool sunglasses, he didn't believe it, it was like this, Zhou Zifan could still recognize him.
If he can still recognize it, then there is no way, he will strike first, raise his neck and stare at him.
"You didn't lose my pack of good cigarettes, did you?"
