Chapter 152: Returning Home
"And then?"
Listening to Wang Quan's thrilling narration, I squatted in the shade of the tree at the entrance of the hospital, and I was stunned by him.
"Later...... Later, I beat him up and handed him over to the police uncle~" Wang Quan said proudly while taking a sip of tea over there.
"Huh?" Listening to Wang Quan's understatement, I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart: "Since you are so chic...... Then how do you know that he belongs to the Chen family?"
Wang Quan smacked his tongue at the other end and said, "Tut-tut, I said that you kid is not brainless? Could it be that Lao Tzu can still be like those brainless youth idol dramas, while beating him, while yelling: 'Say!' -- let me tell you, that is low, and it is impossible to get any results."
Because, just this kid, if he dares to kill, then he is an outlaw. For a person like him, if you kill him for some secret reasons, he may not be able to let go. So I handed him over to the police - and let the police interrogate him, which saved me the effort.
After that, I got a little bit more up...... You know the ...... After inquiring a little bit about him, I found out that he was originally from the Chen family...... And sir, because of this, I was delayed for a day on the way, and I just met the imperial capital today. ”
"Tut-tut, okay, you! Wang Shaoxia, what a good means...... Admire!" After listening to him tell this thrilling story, I couldn't help but smack my tongue.
"Come on, don't tease me there!" said Wang Quan, who listened to my slightly playful voice, with some displeasure. Then, after a momentary change, he spoke:
"Okay, I'll tell you about me, now tell me about you too...... Why did you go to the hospital so early in the morning?"
"Alas, this thing is also a little strange, listen to me tell you slowly......"
When I think of these things, it gives me a headache. I couldn't keep my composure—so I slowly got up from the shade of the tree, kicked my numb legs, and walked slowly toward the sparsely populated area. While sorting out my thoughts, I told the king all the strange things I had experienced in the past few days......
“…… Well, all of that's it -- that's how it is. Now I'm going back to school to ask for leave and return to my hometown. ”
I talked to the king for most of the day, and my mouth was a little dry, and finally I told him all the ridiculous things I had experienced in the past few days.
After listening to my story, the kid didn't speak for a long time. After a long while, he stammered, "I said Your Majesty...... Your old experience is much more legendary than mine......"
"Come on, let's both stop making fun of each other. I smiled wryly and continued:
"Alright. Commander Wang, since you have arrived home smoothly, I am relieved, and I will go back to school now--pick up and go home to recuperate...... I'll talk to you when I get home. ”
"Cheng, then you should be careful on the road. Wang Quan said that, and hung up the phone.
Listening to the "beep-to-beep" sound on the phone, I shook my head with a wry smile again and put the phone away - but at this moment. Somehow, I suddenly felt like I was being stared at—a stab on my back, and my hairs rose all over my body.
Feeling the creepy snooping that made me creep, I didn't have the power and patience of a king—
"Who!"
I jerked my head back. I yelled - but everything was as I expected: no one was looking at me behind me. But despite this, the creepy feeling of being stared at just now still echoed in my mind, and it couldn't be dissipated for a long time......
When the chill cleared, I looked around vigilantly. I silently muttered in my heart: This place is not suitable for a long time.
After thinking about it, I hurriedly walked to the side of the road, took a taxi, and went straight to school.
Along the way, I rolled the windows as hard as I could, and the strong wind lifted all my hair and hit my face painfully. Yet I was comforted by the wind—at least, I felt better.
When I arrived at the school, I rubbed my hair that was blown messy, took Li Jiong's certificate, and silently walked to the school.
After walking all the way to the school gate, I subconsciously raised my head, looked at the red flag fluttering on the main building, and sighed slowly - although I just went home to recuperate, I don't know how long it will take to come back after saying goodbye this time......
But what can I do? In a state like mine, listening to Li Jiong's words is the most correct choice -- after all, people are professionals.
After thinking about all this mess, I shook my head helplessly, tightened the certificate sheet in my hand again, and finally dragged my tired body and walked towards the campus......
With the proof, the leave went surprisingly smoothly - the instructor gave me another "long vacation" to go home and recuperate. After politely thanking me, I went back to my dorm and began to pack my bags.
It's class time, and the roommates aren't there.
I simply packed a small suitcase and sent them a group message:
I'm going home to recuperate, don't read it.
Touch the screen with your fingertip and you're done.
I looked up at the empty dorm room and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air in my chest. Looking up at the clear blue sky outside the window, my heart was hot, I picked up the phone again and dialed the number at home:
"Hello?"
--Hearing the familiar voice of my mother-sama, my heart shook slightly.
"Hey, Mom, I'...... I'm going home. I whispered.
"You're coming back, great, I haven't seen you on vacation, my mom misses you to death, when are you home? I'll pick you up at the station......"
Hearing her trembling voice with joy, my eyes suddenly soured, and I hurriedly spoke:
"Well, I'll go back now, probably, in the evening, and I'll call you when it's time, and that's it, hang up. ”
I quickly finished my sentence and hung up the phone—because I knew that if I continued, I would cry like a dog.
After hanging up the phone, I stood at the door of the dormitory again, took a deep breath several times, and gradually eased the complicated feelings of sadness and happiness just now. I brushed away the tears hanging from the corners of my eyes with the back of my hand, gently locked the door, pulled up the suitcase, and walked out of the dormitory without looking back—it was half a year, and it was time to go home and have a look.
All the way, I stepped on the bus home.
My home is in Jixi.
A small city in the eastern part of Heilongjiang Province -- my hometown may not be famous, or it may not be prosperous, but for me, the word Jixi is the warmest place in my heart. Even if one day, I really die somewhere else, my soul will come back here, back to this remote but peaceful border city.
Looking at the rapidly regressing scenery outside the car window, my heart was extremely agitated, and I longed to go home at once, and throw away all the tiredness of the past six months - the so-called return to the heart is like an arrow, probably this feeling.
Maybe it was because of yesterday's terrible "auditory hallucinations", maybe it was because I didn't sleep all night last night, or maybe it was the sense of security that made me let go of my vigilance, so I leaned back on the back of the coach and fell into a deep sleep......
In a dream.
"I" was still immersed in the water on my back, only this time, there was no longer that nice but deadly call.
There was silence in the water - only the faint sound of running water could be heard.
And "I" body, accompanied by regular tidal fluctuations, seems to be slowly rising in the water......
I don't know how long it took - suddenly, my eyes lit up, and it seemed that the whole person of "me" had risen to the surface. I took in my surroundings carefully, but the "I" in my dream still had my eyes closed, so I couldn't see what my surroundings were like.
And "my" body seemed to be washed to the shore by the current, and lay there quietly like this, and after a long time, I did not move, and the surrounding environment was also very quiet, only the sound of the tide, which gave me a preliminary judgment.
It seems...... It's by the sea?...... (To be continued.) )
