Chapter 203: Midnight Rain

In the middle of the night, Chen Chi woke up suddenly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Xu Shuang fell like a cat, shrunk in front of his chest, he reached out and touched the quilt, covering her whole body, and at the same time, a very strange sound was caught in his ears.

Chen Chi stood up and looked at the doors and windows of the four walls.

It was raining outside the window, and the raindrops were crashing on the ground. Xu Shuang was afraid of the heat, and when they slept, they only drew a thin gauze curtain, and now the gauze curtain was rolled and fluttered, and the wind poured in through the screen window, blowing their bed tents fluttering.

But the voices he heard were not these, but very close to them.

Chen Chi listened attentively for about five seconds, pulled the quilt up, covered Xu Shuang's head and face, and then stretched out his hand, turned on the bedside lamp, and quickly looked in one direction.

At first glance, it was business as usual in the room, except for the curtains blown up by the wind. But Chen Chi soon realized that something was wrong, he opened the bed tent and looked at the ceiling, and frowned.

This movement still affected Xu Shuangxia, and a vague low hum came from the bed.

Chen Chi hurriedly tucked the quilt to her neck, patted her back, rubbed his lips lightly on her forehead, and lowered his voice to soothe: "Sleep, sleep." With that, he lifted the quilt and rolled over and got out of bed.

In one of the corners of the roof near the front window, there was a large splash of water, and along the seam of the prefabricated panel, there was a line covered with water droplets, which fell down sharply, and landed on the edge of the wooden sofa, ticking and splashing, and the sound was so dense that there was no interval.

Chen Chi hurriedly walked around and closed the front and rear glass windows first, the curtains had already been wet. But he ignored it, bending down to drag the wooden couch beneath the leaky water.

The solid wood sofa was big, long, and extremely sturdy, so Chen Chi had to move it at both ends, moving it little by little, and soon, his head, back, and hands were drenched with water.

"Chi, what's wrong?"

Chen Chi looked back and saw that Xu Shuangchuan sat up in the center of the bed with the quilt in his arms, his face was full of sleep, and he still looked confused.

"Frost, the room is leaking, you can continue to sleep." With a force on Chen Chi's hand, he dragged the heavy solid wood sofa again, and the feet of the stool rubbed against the water-stained floor, making a sharp creak.

Xu Shuangchuan came to his senses, saw the water beads dripping down Chen Chi's back, as if he was in a shower, and hurriedly climbed out of bed and said, "I'll help you." ”

"Don't come here, the ground is slippery."

After Chen Chi finished speaking, Xu Shuang's plastic slippers "squeaked", his body was crooked, dangerously unstable, and his heart was pounding with fright.

"Are you alright?" Chen Chi said urgently.

Xu Shuangchuan shook her head, she got out of bed, only to see that the roof leakage was very serious, and the ceiling above Chen Chi was dripping in several places, falling down alternately, and they were about to catch up with the water curtain hole.

Her strength was simply not worth mentioning, standing at the other end of the sofa, she couldn't lift and lift, and she couldn't pull and pull, so that Chen Chi didn't dare to use force, for fear of pushing hard and pressing her toes.

"Come here." Chen Chi saw her blushing face, even if the situation was bad, he couldn't help but laugh, "Stand with me." ”

The two finally moved the bulky sofa out of the leaky area, Xu Shuangchuan panted and looked at the ceiling, and couldn't help shaking Chen Chi's wet arm: "Look." ”

The water stain marks on the walls on both sides of the roof corner are not only noticeably larger, but also stick to the wall, as if a thin layer of water is flowing down, similar to the effect of the water curtain wall.

Chen Chi went to the corner of the bed and picked up his T-shirt, wiped it on his face casually, and put it directly on his body. He quickly explained to Xu Shuangchuan: "Change clothes." As he spoke, he opened the door, "I'll go get a mop and a basin, my uncle may have to come up." ”

Chen Chi walked out quickly, and by the way, he poked into the other rooms and examined them together. The living room on the second floor is in the best condition, basically fine, but on the other side of his cousin's and sister-in-law's room is not optimistic, and there is also water seepage on the corner wall, but it is better than the guest room where he and Xu Shuang lived, at least it is not dripping like a light rain.

Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly changed out of the suspender silk pajamas, and after a while, he heard Chen Chi and Uncle Wang coming upstairs.

Wang Zhongde was wearing a round-necked old man's shirt, a pair of boxer shorts, and a pair of slippers, obviously getting up in a hurry. "Oops," he said, touching the wall and looking up at the top corner, unaware of the droplets behind him, anxious, "the drain must be plugged with bamboo leaves." ”

The edge of the Wang family's building is a bamboo forest, when there is a wind, the bamboo forest is swaying, and the ground is good, but it also brings a trouble, many bamboo leaves fall into the roof tiles, accumulate over time, and gradually block the drainage outlet.

"This leak is not a solution, there is no water outside, all in the house, I will go get a ladder to the roof." Wang Zhongde ran downstairs.

Chen Chi turned around and followed, and Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly stopped: "Chen Chi." She glanced outside, lowered her voice, and said, "Tell your uncle not to go, it's dark and rainy outside, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

"I know." Chen Chi patted the back of her hand and said softly, "Take the quilt and lie down on the sofa next door, the room is fine." I'll take a look. ”

Where can I rest in Xu Shuangxia? She watched Chen Chi run downstairs, turned around twice, and soon saw Wang Zhongde carrying a bamboo ladder up. Chen Chi held two transparent raincoats in the crook of his arm, a flashlight in his hand, and held the back of the bamboo ladder.

Xu Shuang saw this posture, this was about to go to the roof, she was so anxious to follow behind Chen Chi, waiting for an opportunity to pull the hem of his clothes.

Before she could speak, Uncle Wang shouted in front of her, "Chi Yanzi, help me open the rooftop door." ”

"Okay." Chen Chi said loudly, glanced at her, and quickly advised, "Go back and rest, don't come with me." As he spoke, he strode forward.

Xu Shuang stomped her foot darkly, biting her lip and continuing to follow.

As soon as Chen Chi pushed open the rooftop door, the wind and rain immediately swept in, and it was dark outside, and he couldn't see his fingers. He hurriedly put on a raincoat and shouted, "Uncle, I'll take out the ladder, you wear a raincoat." He was not at ease, glanced back, and saw that Xu Shuangchuan was still following in a panic, and couldn't help shouting: "Shuangshuang, don't come out." ”

Xu Shuangchuan was startled, froze in place, and after a while, he saw Chen Chi carrying a bamboo ladder and turning out, the figure flashed, and soon walked out of the illumination range of the wall lamp at the entrance of the rooftop. Wang Zhongde put on a raincoat, picked up the flashlight on the ground and turned it on, and hurriedly followed out, he also turned back and explained: "Frost, it's raining outside, don't come out." ”

Xu Shuang subconsciously let out an "oh", but his footsteps still caught up. She was standing at the door of the rooftop, and the rain flew in diagonally, hitting her face, and it was cold. In the pouring rain, I heard Wang Zhongde shouting in a loud voice: "Chi Yanzi, put it over, okay, okay." ”

She poked out, and the rain poured down her head and face, down her chin and down her neck. Xu Shuang lowered the door frame, didn't care at all, and looked intently at the other side of the rooftop, leaning under the eaves in front of the main building, in the swaying beam of the flashlight, Chen Chi and Wang Zhongde could be faintly seen holding the bamboo ladder.
