"You are in a strange place, single, it's dark, how can I not be nervous?" Chen Chi said a few words, and then stopped talking, he was afraid of scaring Xu Shuang, so he had to teach softly, "Shuangshuang, be cautious." ”

I only heard Xu Shuang laughing in a low voice, and the voice on the phone became very muffled again. Chen Chi listened with bated breath, catching every subtle sound.

There was almost no loud sound in the past fifteen minutes, and even the friction sound of Xu Shuang's clothes was very little, Chen Chi thought, she must have found a place to stand motionless, probably only quietly looking at the people around her, and then constantly looking in the direction where the car was coming.

For Chen Chi, the voice on that end was imprisoned, time seemed to stand still, and he was like being trapped in a wasteland alone.

He loosened his neckline and moved very lightly, fearing that when he twisted his neck, it would affect the hearing of his ears.

Chen Chi told Xu Shuangchuan about meeting a girl at the train station at night, but he didn't go into details, he held the girl's hand that night, and the palms of the two were full of cold sweat. After a long time, his memory of the girl's appearance was blurred, but the feeling of clammy and cold in his hands was always impressive.

At that time, in the summer, the girl was carrying a big travel bag, a short-sleeved T-shirt, and raw-edged denim shorts, and she hurriedly walked into the station, and after about five or six minutes, she walked out again, looking hesitant. Then she took out her mobile phone and looked through it, and the light of the screen illuminated her face a little blue, like a small luminous circle, which was very eye-catching.

Chen Chi stood with his arms folded against the wall, his backpack against his back, and the street lamps in the square outside the station stretched his shadow diagonally. He squinted at the girl, then at the crowd in the other place.

The girl took the phone, and Chen Chi clearly saw that she put the phone in the side pocket of the backpack. The streetlights in the square didn't illuminate the area as bright as daylight, but if you were to keep an eye on a person, it would be strong enough to see the person's size, including the silhouette of her figure, the size of her backpack, and of course, the hesitation of pausing in each direction as she turned her head to look around.

The girl turned her head slightly to his corner to observe at least three seconds longer than she had glanced at the crowd, and after a moment she shifted her footsteps and stood a little more, her head facing the other side of the square, where there was a wider main street, and it was midnight, and there was not a single pedestrian on the street, and there were no vehicles, so empty and deserted that only the projection of the lamppost remained. The supermarket on the corner of the street has even left the night shift staff to collect the entire shelf, the supermarket door is locked, and the store is pitch black.

Chen Chi didn't pay attention to the girl, he moved his gaze to a dozen meters behind her. Four or five people gathered under a tree on the edge of the station square, giggling and chatting, about the same height as him, not a single fat man, but by no means thin, very strong, all wearing dark T-shirts, in their twenties, you and I shared two cans of beer.

Chen Chi looked at it quite carefully. None of these men's black hair was dyed in a variety of colors, it was pure black, the hair on both sides of the head was shoveled flat and short, and the hair on the top was fixed with gel water and pierced to the sky. Under the reflection of the street lamp, the bright scalp exposed at the base of their heads and the thick black eyebrows on their faces are equally prominent.

These people walk on the streets during the day, no different from ordinary youths, and they are not very maverick, they can even be silent and humble, but at night, these surplus laborers, who have nowhere to vent their energy, may become gangsters who wander the streets.

One of them raised his head and took a sip of beer, handed it to the person next to him, turned his head to look at the girl, turned his head and said something, and the group laughed.

Chen Chi quietly scanned the three roads connected by the square, the main street was the brightest, leading to the commercial area in the center of the city, and the disadvantage was that there were few homes. There is a road on each side, which is narrower than the main street, and the street lamps are shaded by trees.

The bunch continued to take turns drinking beer. One took it and took a sip, looking at the angle of his neck, it seemed to be the last sip. He shook the jar in his hand, stuffed it to the next one, and took a step.

Chen Chi straightened his waist and strode towards the girl.

The girl was startled and looked at him nervously, looking wary.

"Chinese?" Chen Chi said directly in Chinese.

A flash of relaxation and surprise flashed in the girl's eyes, and she nodded quickly.

"I'm leaving, believe me and I'll come with me. He didn't dragged his feet, his eyes were on the crowd, and they were all watching him and the girl.

"......" The girl hesitated, looking at Chen Chi's hesitation.

Chen Chi's eyes drooped, and he glanced at the girl: "I have friends living here, so I can go and spend the night." Go or stay?"

The girl involuntarily looked sideways in the direction of the pile of people, and then looked at Chen Chi.

Chen Chi's gaze kept locking on their direction, and he saw one of them tilt his head towards his companion and step again.

"Here they are. Chen Chi pulled the girl up.

The girl hurriedly followed.

Chen Chi chose the direction of the main street. During the day, he and his friends were eating, chatting and drinking, and the two older boys had no interest in shopping, so he only knew that this direction led to the commercial street, and did not know the actual situation. But this road is much better than the two dimly lit winding paths, and Chen Chi hopes that on the main roads in the city, there is a high chance of encountering night patrol police, that is, there will be more psychological deterrence for the group of people behind him.

"What's your name?" the girl asked.

"Chen Chi. He squeezed the girl's hand tightly and explained succinctly, "Don't look behind you too often, remember the name of the road." ”

"What?"

"The name of the road, you can call the police. Chen Chi raised his voice slightly, and glanced behind him as he turned the corner.

The gang was tight, but they didn't run after them, and kept a speed that would never be lost, like a cat playing with mice, full of plain bad taste, some whistling, some laughing.

Chen Chi only picks up the bright places to walk, and never stops, which makes his walking seem purposeful. The palms of his hands were very cold, although the heat subsided at night, but after all, it was summer, and the two of them walked all the way, and their hands were not hot.

The commercial street is not long, and Chen Chi saw that the intersection was imminent, and he already planned to get better and run out of the street. A very vulgar curse came from behind, and then the beer cans were thrown at them, gurgling and rolling on the ground.

Chen Chi turned his head sharply, and the men stood in place, laughing and scolding, and one of them raised his arms, ran two steps, and threw a second beer can at them.

"Don't scream. Chen Chi whispered to stop the girl's exclamation that she was about to rush out, turned around expressionlessly, and dragged the girl to quickly turn the intersection. The two walked briskly in silence, Chen Chi's steps were so big that the girl even had to trot all the way.

After walking forty or fifty meters away, there happened to be a branch alley. Chen Chi paused slightly, he was not in a hurry to flash people, he looked sideways into the alley, it seemed to be very long, and then glanced at the intersection behind him, and he didn't see the figure of the group of people, and there was no laughter and shouting. He didn't hesitate too much and continued to walk straight with the girl.

After a long way, Chen Chi stopped, and the girl's face was instantly full of vigilance, looking at the surroundings and at him again.

"Do you have a place to go here?" Chen Chi asked as he let go of his hand.

The girl was silent, Chen Chi glanced at her, he could understand the girl's psychology, she was probably afraid that she would tell the truth, in case he had bad thoughts, he could have no scruples. (To be continued.) )
