"I think you probably didn't figure out three things. First, Lin Xiao asked me to find you after school and said that you would send me back. But I called you and Qin Haoyu several times, but the two of you never answered. Second, because I've called you too many times, my phone is dead. Thirdly, you know how far it is from school to where you can get a taxi, and I walked a little bit to get there. And in the afternoon, Lin Xiao said that if he didn't come back, the dinner must have been prepared by me alone, so since that's the case, what's wrong with me coming back after eating out! Based on the above three things, it seems that no matter how you look at it, I am not to blame for this matter! ”

was originally a reasonable favor, but after hearing L's tirade, his momentum suddenly weakened, and the expression on his face became a little embarrassed for a while.

"Me, I forgot my phone in the classroom at the time, that's why you can't get through. I don't know what the reason is for Haoyu's. Although he explained quickly, L could see a hint of panic in his expression. Is he hiding something?

"What are you afraid of?" His gaze narrowed on Zhongyi's face, and L asked in a cold tone.

"What?" was asked so suddenly, and Zhongyi's eyes began to panic a little. He uncomfortably looked away, avoiding touching L's gaze.

"I ask you, what are you afraid of! Or should I say, what are you hiding? With his hands clasped around his chest, L leaned against the wall and asked again with a determined face.

"I, I don't understand what you're talking about. What am I afraid of! Even if you are afraid, you are afraid that you will get lost outside and will not find your way back. As he spoke, the tone of Zhong Yi fell, and he had no confidence.

L looked at him coldly and didn't say anything more. The mouth grew on him, he didn't want to say it, and he couldn't help it. Don't use violent means, pry his mouth open with your hands!

No matter what he was hiding, as long as he didn't threaten her in the end. Sighing, L walked around him, walked into the kitchen, picked up the water cup and poured himself a glass of cold water, and raised his head to drink.

"Well, I want you to know. No matter what time it was, I never wanted to hurt you. Seeing L ignore himself, Zhong Yi struggled in his heart, and finally gritted his teeth, and said with an uncomfortable expression.

After saying that, without waiting for L to say anything more, he turned around and walked up the stairs around the corner and returned to his room on the second floor.

Hearing this, L stopped drinking water. Putting down the glass of water in his hand, he turned to look thoughtfully in the direction he had left.

What does he mean by that? What the hell did he do?

At this moment, a thought crossed her mind. Could it be that Zhong knew that she was being troubled by the murderous woman today?

L frowned, his expression becoming serious. She wasn't sure if that was true. Zhong Yi didn't look like he was in a gang with the fierce-faced woman, and from the conversation between the two of them and the conversation between him and Qin Haoyu, she could see that he hated the fierce-faced girl very much. So it's impossible for him to partner with the fierce-faced woman to send someone to find trouble for him. And he also said that he never wanted to hurt her. But if he didn't know what had just happened, then why did he suddenly say something so reverie? Was it just a coincidence?

"Xiaoshuang, where have you been? Do you know that we're going crazy looking for you! I almost asked my brother to send all the officers in their police station out to find you! Just when L was still speculating about the meaning of Zhongyi's words, Qin Haoyu's voice that sounded very aggrieved just broke into her ears like this.

Before she could raise her head to look in the direction where the voice was coming from, L felt a dark shadow coming towards her quickly. Before her brain could react, her body reflexively dodged to the side.

"Hmm,,,,,, LL, how did you dodge! Oh, my waist! Because she dodged like this, Qin Haoyu didn't accidentally pounce on the dining table behind L. The waist slammed into the corner of the table.

Looking at Qin Haoyu, who was rubbing his waist on the side and shouting in pain exaggeratedly, L was suddenly a little speechless. Why is this guy always so frizzy, and he doesn't feel stable at all.

"Xiaoshuang, didn't I ask you to go to Ah Yi after school and ask him to send you back! Why didn't you go to him, and your phone was turned off! ”

At this time, Lin Xiao also walked in from the door. Seeing L standing there safe and sound, the worry in my heart immediately disappeared. But the anger in my heart followed.

Hearing this, L turned around. I saw that Lin Xiao's face had lost its former gentleness, and his expression was slightly angry and glared at him. It was the first time she had seen on his face a look other than gentleness. Even if he was dissatisfied before, the expression on his face did not change. But this time, the angry expression completely appeared on his face, and it seemed that he was really angry this time.

"What? Someone found? ”

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door. A trace of doubt flashed in L's heart, is anyone else coming? During this period, except for Qin Haoyu and the three of them, I haven't seen anyone else here, who could it be? But why is this sound so familiar? It's like I've heard it somewhere.

Soon, a sound of footsteps came from far to near. L followed the voice and looked at the door.

It's him!

L didn't expect to meet the cold man from yesterday here, this person's expression is still so cold.

Qin Haoxuan was the last to come in. Originally, he was going to have a dinner with his friends in the evening for a few drinks, but a phone call was made by Lin Xiao and his younger brother. Saying that they have a friend who is lost and has to ask him to help find him. It takes 24 hours for a missing person to be filed, but for the sake of these two people, he used his connections. I went to adjust the video footage at that time, and sent a few people to find it on the way to the school. But it was all for nothing.

However, when he saw from the surveillance video that the person his brother was looking for was the girl from yesterday, his expression was slightly surprised. He didn't expect this woman to have a relationship with his younger brother and they still live together. But he soon realized that something was wrong.

Except for the fact that the woman was seen when she left the school gate at the beginning, she was not found for the rest of the video. There were several surveillance devices on the road to the school, but no one could be found in the video. He asked someone to check it, and no one had ever tampered with this video. There is only one way from school to the city, but why can't you see her here? I can't say that this is what made him encounter the supernatural.

This woman is very suspicious, her skills, her demeanor. Each one is suspicious. Qin Haoyu decided to talk to Lin Xiao about this matter in private, and his younger brother didn't dare to count on it. Because of a woman, who has no reason at all, even asked him to transfer all the police officers in the police station, he is lost as the leader of the country! I really thought of a play is a play.

"I called Zhong Yi and Qin Haoyu, but neither of them answered my phone. And just like that, my phone ran out of battery at the end. I thought about it, you said I was there in the evening, so I just ate out and came back. In just a few seconds, L's gaze left Qin Haoxuan's body, returned to Lin Xiao, and said to him calmly.

It's not her fault at all, why are these two people accusing her with words!

"Did you call?" Lin Xiao asked with some uncertainty.

"yes, and many times."

With an affirmative answer, his expression became a little silent, and his brow furrowed. Looking at the other two people, their expressions also changed slightly.

What's wrong with them? Is there really something she doesn't know? Seeing them like this, the doubts in L's heart became serious.

"Brother Xiao, I like that guy"

"Haoyu!"

Just when Qin Haoyu wanted to say something, Qin Haoxuan on the side stopped him, shook his head at him, and motioned for him not to continue.

Receiving Qin Haoxuan's meaning, Qin Haoyu pursed his lips, lowered his head and said nothing with a gloomy expression.

All these actions were watched by L. What are they hiding one by one? Qin Haoyu mentioned Zhongyi in his words just now, combined with the strange words that Zhongyi said to himself just now, this matter must be related to Zhongyi, who had already returned to the room. But what is it?

"Xiaoshuang, this time it was my mistake. Thankfully, you're home safely now. But next time, if you encounter this situation again, you should come back early. It's very unsafe for you to be out at such a late age from a girl's house. If you don't have teeth at home, you can order takeout. When you go out in the future, remember to bring a power bank in your bag. This way you can charge it when you need it, and you won't have to shut down and find no one anymore. Hiding the doubts in his heart, Lin Xiao's face returned to a gentle expression, and his tone became a little better than just now.

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Qin Haoyu also echoed on the side.

"That's right! Right! Brother Xiao is right. When you go out in the future, you have to bring a power bank! Also, it's too late to stay outside so that you won't be safe. Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Qin Haoyu also echoed on the side.

"Haoyu, I think your friend, no matter how late he is outside, should be safe." Qin Haoxuan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, stared at L's eyes tightly, and said meaningfully.
