31. Chapter 31
Ji Cheng's heart tightened, stretched out his hand to block the dog in his hand, and said to the man, "Hey, what are you going to do?" I made them pounce on you. β
"Don't be nervous, it's just a hemp/drunk gun."
Ji Cheng bit his lip when he heard this: "Wait, I'll let them go back." β
Wilson smiled: "Of course it's best if you're willing to cooperate." β
"I don't understand, why can I ......" After the man took the fighting dog away, Ji Cheng looked at Wilson suspiciously, "You...... Is that also the case? β
"No, I'm not."
"So, what do you want me to do with this? But this kind of thing doesn't work for you, does it? β
"Who knows." Wilson walked over to Ji Cheng, grabbed Ji Cheng's hand slowly and firmly, and leaned over slightly: "By the way, what I said at the dance that night, I was serious." β
ββββββββββββββ
After Ji Cheng came out of the bar, she ran a full two blocks before slowly stopping, holding the handbag that Wilson had given her, and sat down at a newsstand on the side of the street.
She took out her phone, the screen was dim, presumably Wilson had turned it off earlier. After opening it, I looked at the time, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon of the next day.
[This world can be very interesting or boring, and for me who is currently bored, you are one of the more interesting things, so if I want you to do anything in the future, don't resist in vain, just cooperate with me. γ
At that time, Wilson restrained Ji Cheng's arms and whispered in a small voice in her ear.
By the time he let go of his hand, Ji Cheng's originally white arm skin had already been stained with a circle of red marks because he wanted to break free.
Ji Cheng looked at the phone screen and slowly digested this fact.
So, is she in trouble?
DamnitοΌ
His arm was still aching, and the place where he had been handcuffed before was also faintly bruised, Ji Cheng looked at those marks in a daze, and suddenly wanted to cry.
After the mobile phone was turned on, Leng Buding rang a hint of a missed call, Ji Cheng thought it was Olivia who called, and was about to give her back, but found that the first few missed calls were another number with a stored name.
HB.
Henryβbrother.
Henry's older brother.
This is the name James entered when he gave her the number before.
Ji Cheng's attention was slightly distracted, and he was wondering why he called her, when he suddenly remembered something, he flipped through his call records, and found that the distress call he wanted to make before he was taken away by Wilson in the bar was to the number that James had newly entered.
No way? Ji Cheng was surprised to check the time of the phone call, the first call was five minutes after she made the call and was forced to hang up, and the second one was another hour apart.
The third one was about two o'clock this afternoon, two hours ago, and the next three were also called in these two hours.
Olivia also made several phone calls to her, as well as voice messages.
[Orange, what are you doing outside, don't just send a message, call me so I can rest assured. Olivia's message came at around one o'clock in the morning, and her tone seemed anxious.
Information? What information.
Ji Cheng had to continue to open the outbox of the phone, and then he realized: after taking her away last night, Wilson sent a message to Olivia in her name saying that he was going to spend the night outside, telling her not to worry.
Tsk, sure enough, I know her life, and I know what anyone will worry about if she really doesn't return overnight.
However, after what she told her before, Olivia probably will also notice that something is wrong, besides, in the two years of college, she has never spent the night outside.
Ji Cheng was about to call Olivia back, but the mobile phone rang again.
Caller ID: HB.
Ji Cheng hesitated at the name for a few seconds before pressing the answer button.
"Oh my God, you finally took it." The person on the other end of the line seemed relieved.
"Huh?" Ji Cheng didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Where are you? Why don't you answer the phone? Still haven't returned all night? After making sure that Ji Cheng on the other end of the phone was safe and sound, James began to have a bunch of questions.
"Y-Why do you know?"
"Henry called you today, and you still didn't answer, so I called your dorm phone, and it was your roommate who answered."
Ji Cheng was a little dazed at the beginning of hearing this sentence, but quickly strung together two things: probably Henry was looking for her to play or chat, but couldn't get through to her mobile phone, and because he liked to use his mobile phone to watch videos, sometimes his mobile phone would run out of battery, so he left Henry's dormitory phone number. Henry called, and the person who answered the phone was Olivia, who had already sensed that something was wrong.
Wait, if you think about it, you still can't string it together, why would Olivia say this to a little child?
"I'm the one who hit me." James answered her on the other end of the phone.
ββ¦β¦ Why? β
The person on the other end of the phone sighed: "This is not important, can you tell me that something happened to you?" β
Ji Cheng opened his mouth, and suddenly he couldn't speak. The scenes in the bar shook in front of me, and my heart palpitated.
"OK, then can you tell me where you are?"
"I don't know." Ji Cheng looked around when he heard this, and then realized that he had just patronized a bar far away from Wilson, and he didn't care if she was familiar with this road or not.
"Are there any landmarks or something?"
"Here, there's a very small fountain square, and there's an advertising wall opposite." Ji Cheng said and looked at the opposite side carefully for a while, and suddenly cried after seeing something, "There's your poster on it." β
The James Walker on that poster is wearing a white t-shirt and a black denim jacket, with a bright smile, which is almost exactly the same as the dress and expression of the GIF that Ji Cheng saw the most in his previous life.
The baby is sad and wants to let the steaming on the poster hug QWQ
She began to sobbed quietly, and after the first few blows, she remembered that it was too embarrassing, so she simply hung up the phone.
Some of the passers-by looked at her strangely, while others seemed to be surprised by the sight and walked away. There was also an old man with a shopping bag who kindly walked over and tried to comfort her: "Hey, little girl, don't cry, breaking up with your boyfriend is not a big deal." β
Mother-in-law, thank you, but-I'd rather I actually broke up with my boyfriend
Ji Cheng cried even harder.
The old man didn't continue to say anything, just took out a pack of chocolate chip cookies from his shopping bag, which was estimated to have been bought for his grandson, put it next to Ji Cheng, and then slowly walked away.
And James, who was hung up at this time, was also in a somewhat complicated mood.
Originally, when he left Ji Cheng on the phone yesterday, he knew that the other party was unlikely to take the initiative to call him in the short term, but he didn't expect that less than five hours after the separation, the other party called, but he was doing something at the time, and he didn't have time to answer, and when he called again, he couldn't get through.
James felt a little strange, yes, he was sure that Ji Cheng would not take the initiative to call him, although it was not clear what the reason was, but when he saw Ji Cheng's small reactions during the day, he knew that she definitely didn't hate him, but there must be other reasons, so he put on a look that he didn't want to have too much contact with him.
Then why did she call?
After the second call didn't go through, James thought that Ji Cheng remembered the wrong number or pressed the wrong key or something. So I didn't care too much about it, and went straight to washing and sleeping.
As a result, Henry's phone call came in the morning, saying that Oreo's sister's phone couldn't get through, and he obviously said that he would play with him today.
Henry was very stubborn, James had to help him call Ji Cheng's dormitory, who knew that her roommate heard that the person who was looking for Ji Cheng was a strange man, so he was very nervous and asked him if he was Ji Cheng's friend, whether she had called him or something.
Olivia knew about Ji Cheng and Walker's family, and played with Ji Cheng in his spare time, so when he learned that little Henry was still standing on the other end of the phone, he told James that Ji Cheng had not returned overnight.
That's when James realized something was wrong.
He continued to call Ji Cheng's mobile phone and found that no one answered.
At that moment, he suddenly panicked a little inexplicably, and after calming down, he was sure that it was because of his young brother who was sitting next to him with a bitter face.
"It's okay, don't worry, Henry."
"But that sister said that Sister Oreo was targeted by bad guys." Henry was about to cry.
James thought of what the girl had just said, and his heart tightened, and he almost called the police. And before that, he made one last attempt.
Thankfully, she took it this time.
When James drove to the Fountain Square on Fifth Avenue, he saw Ji Cheng sitting next to a newsstand with his knees hugged.
He opened the car door and walked over, patting the girl on the shoulder, who was motionless like a statue.
The other party seemed to be startled, raised his head, his eyes were red, his hair was messy, and he was holding a pack of cookies in his arms that he didn't know where they came from. It's a little funny, and it's distressing.
James unconsciously stretched out his hand, touched her head, smoothed the hair that stood up, and smiled slightly: "Good, don't cry." β
