Chapter 100: The Sound of Eight O'Clock Every Night

Somehow, the crowd gradually dispersed, and Xu Shuangchuan and the girl looked at each other, and finally stopped a passenger to ask.

"We were given a change to a bus, come on. The local lady in her fifties was quite welcoming and beckoned them to go along.

There were a lot of buses parked in the square where they went, and some temporary signs were erected next to them to mark the location. The three of them had different destinations, Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly thanked the lady who led the way, said goodbye to the American girl, and boarded a bus.

There were already eight adults on the bus, and Xu Shuangchuan found a vacant seat to sit down, feeling very worried.

She's always ready for someone to come and collect the money, or at least check the train ticket. I don't want the car to be full and start it, and the car is quiet.

Xu Shuang's eyes rolled, and he was very surprised, and he didn't even ask if it was a stranded passenger on the train, so he let them take the free bus one by one.

She rarely takes long buses and looks out the window all the way. The scenery is beautiful and open, with quiet rivers, pastures with some green stubble, and houses with white walls and red roofs. It's just that everything she saw was so unfamiliar, she couldn't even tell which towns she passed along the way, so Xu Shuangchuan couldn't appreciate it steadily.

It was nearly noon, and she was faintly hungry. But hunger is not her concern, it is nothing to miss a meal, and the next meal is full to make up for it, and she can bear this little hunger. Now she worries about how long it will take for the bus to arrive and whether she will be able to catch the train on the way back.

The car is full of strangers, if you don't talk about it, no one will take the initiative to say it. I took an unfamiliar route and went to a city that I was not familiar with.

Xu Shuang was at a loss, she looked out the window silently.

The bus takes the passengers to the train station in the destination city.

Liang Shiyun's residence is on the outskirts of the city. This is a quiet small city, in Xu Shuangzhen's view, there is no difference between the city and the outside of the city, nothing more than a city hall and a church in the middle of the city, a commercial street, and a lively supermarket. Out of the bustling area that can be walked around in half an hour, the dwellings gradually transition from dense to sparse, and then fields begin to appear, and there are even sheep intestine paths and cement bridges on the edge of the fields.

Xu Shuangchuan once came to play, Liang Shiyun borrowed a bicycle for Xu Shuangchuan, and the two girls rode all the way along the sheep intestine trail and found a big supermarket in the suburbs, which covers a larger area than the one in the central district of the city.

Xu Shuangchuan remembered that time, the cool wind blew all the way, and there were no serious crops planted in the field, maybe it was just pasture?

But thankfully, Liang Shiyun's residence is not yet in the field. After a river bay in front of her building, and around the towering deciduous trees by the river, the vision suddenly opens up and the fields appear in front of you.

From the train station to Liang Shiyun's building, it takes half an hour to walk and 15 minutes to take the car, because the line is slightly winding.

Xu Shuang waited for two or three minutes, and then decisively gave up taking the car, she believed in her own steps more. Sometimes, she is in a hurry, and she does do something stupid that is full of brute strength.

Liang Shiyun opened the door for her and asked at the first time: "Frost falls, you finally arrived safely, have you found the bomb?"

"I don't know, I'm confused today, I don't understand it, maybe it's just a threatening call or something. ”

Liang Shiyun patted her chest: "It's good if there is no danger, I heard you say before, I can't believe that there will be such a thing." She smiled and invited Xu Shuangchuan into the kitchen, "Come and drink a glass of water, when you called me just now, I had already steamed the spring rolls, but they had already been steamed at noon, and they might not be so delicious now." ”

The wrappers are crystal clear, with shredded vegetables and minced eggs and meat. Liang Shiyun is definitely a girl who can get out of the hall and into the kitchen, and a lot of thought has been put into the small spring rolls, shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, shredded lettuce, red, green and green, soft and delicious.

The two of them had just eaten, and before they could talk much, the doorbell rang, Liang Shiyun ran to open the door, and after a while, there was a sound of talking, Xu Shuangchuan didn't sound right, and went out to see.

There was a middle-aged man standing outside the door, a local, who was a lot taller than Liang Shiyun, and he was almost all in the door frame, and said with a straight face and extremely serious: "I ask you not to make noise at night, otherwise I will complain to your school again." ”

"We didn't make any sound, and I suggest you find out where the sound came from. Liang Shiyun has always been a very kind girl, with long hair and a shawl, and she always speaks softly and softly, but at this time she has no smile on her face, as if she is holding back her anger.

"I could hear it very clearly, it was coming from downstairs. The man raised his voice, his eyes were fixed on Liang Shiyun's face, and the corners of his lips pursed coldly after speaking, showing a posture of extreme restraint.

"There are several floors downstairs, and I didn't make your voice. Liang Shiyun argued.

"Do you hear a sound at night? about eight o'clock every day?" asked the man solemnly, "something like something knocking on a pipe or a wall?"

"Nope. Liang Shiyun replied with a sigh of relief.

"Well, it's your floor, then, that your apartment is right below me. ”

Liang Shiyun was stunned by this man's simple and crude logical reasoning, and her expression was a little silly.

"Maybe you or your roommate are dancing to music at night and making a lot of noise, whatever," the man said annoyedly, "I want you to stop this kind of behavior immediately and not disturb the neighbors, otherwise I will complain again until you stop making noise." ”

"I'm serious. The man warned word by word, in an unkind tone.

Liang Shiyun's face was swollen red, and she reiterated aggrieved and angry: "I didn't make a noise." ”

"Sir," Xu Shuangchuan couldn't help but help, "my friend doesn't lie, and if she says she didn't make a noise, then she doesn't." She smiled, trying to temper the stiffness, "You see, suppose she did something and ended up getting complaints again and again, that's not a smart thing to do, is it?

Xu Shuangchuan said kindly: "Sir, why don't you wait until the sound comes out tonight, and listen carefully?" My friend is as confused as you are about the source of the sound, and I think she will be very glad that you can find out the real reason and get a quiet night. ”

The man turned to stare at Xu Shuangchuan: "Who are you?"

Before Xu Shuangchuan could answer, Liang Shiyun raised her head and preemptively said, "She is my friend." ”

The entrance is narrow, and Xu Shuangchuan was originally standing behind Liang Shiyun, but with Liang Shiyun's momentum of taking the lead, it is very similar to her protecting Xu Shuangyun.

In the man's eyes, two petite girls stood in a heap, their eyes bulging, and they were angry with him alone.

"I came to visit my friend and we were having dinner on the weekend. Xu Shuangchuan smiled elegantly and explained further.

The man's gaze wandered over the two girls and he apologized stiffly, "I'm so sorry for disturbing your dinner." He paused and said, "If there is no more noise in the future, I will not complain." ”

He bowed slightly, turned and went upstairs. (To be continued.) )
