Chapter Seventy-Three: Wrong Answer (I)
Chapter Seventy-Three: Wrong Answers (I)
"Yuxia hasn't come back yet, the lunch break is almost over." Shui Yin looked at the still hot bento on his table and was a little anxious.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Cheng put the empty lunch box in layers and hang it on the inside of the desk.
"Huaguang, if Teacher Yumi asks me where Yuxia and I have gone for a while, you will say that we have eaten something bad and will take some medicine in the infirmary and go back." Mizune put down her chopsticks and began to quickly put away the unfinished bento that she and Haxia had not eaten.
"You're going to find him?" Cheng felt that Shui Yin's reaction was a bit too aggressive. Wait a minute...... Why is the excuse to eat something bad again......
"Hmm." Shui Yin smiled embarrassedly, "It doesn't feel right, I'll go take a look, I'm sorry for you." Shui Yin ran to the door of the classroom to finish the three paragraphs.
Shui Yin was determined to go to him, not because of jealousy or low-level reasons such as "the other party is Yan Shan", but simply by virtue of her sixth sense - Yu Xia must have encountered something tricky if she didn't come back for so long. Although this reason is not as convincing as the first two, it is.
……
"What are the conditions?" Yu Xia was still vigilant, but his thoughts had been swayed.
"Am I such a ruthless person in your eyes?" Yan Shan asked rhetorically in a sarcastic tone.
Yu Xia didn't answer, he held the envelope between his fingers and hung down naturally.
"Friday night." Her voice was a little too quiet, and she repeated, "At ten o'clock on Friday night, there is an abandoned warehouse in the back of the furniture city that closed down a few years ago to the north of town. I will wait for your reply in class tomorrow at noon, and if you agree, please find an object that can prove that it is you and give it to me, and you know the point of doing so, without me saying that you know the point of doing so. In short, I wish her to see you on that day. As soon as Yan Shan's words fell, the bell rang at the end of the lunch break.
The amount of information for a while was too large, Yu Xia had not yet fully digested it, and even after Yan Shan had been out of his sight for a long time, he was still frozen in place, and the six gods had no master.
"Yuxia!" As soon as Shui Yin ran into the small corridor of the fire escape, he saw Yu Xia who didn't react at all to her hurried running.
Yu Xia's cervical spine turned like rust, and the angular velocity was so slow that Shui Yin had already run to his side.
"What's wrong with you?" Shui Yin saw that his face was yellow and his expression was sad.
"It's nothing ......" Yu Xia's tangled emotions have not completely dissipated, but he has temporarily closed this emotion in the depths of his heart.
Yuxia took her hand and walked back, walking quickly, for he had clearly realized that he should stay in the classroom at this time instead of standing there in a daze. "Let's talk about it when we get home." Yu Xia squeezed out a smile so that Shui Yin was not so worried.
Of course, Shui Yin was worried that since Yu Xia was going home to talk about it, it would prove that he couldn't explain this matter in a sentence or two. What can he say? She noticed the envelope in Yu Xia's hand, which must have a lot to do with this mysterious matter, but she didn't ask. With what she knew about Yu Xia, the biggest help now was to leave him the space and time to think alone.
Although Yu Xia is very self-reliant, he has never let others decide his own affairs, but this matter is different from the past, and he doesn't know which decision is the right one to make. But there is one thing he firmly believes, and that is that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Behind this meeting, there must be a person who is secretly operating with a peek at the interests involved. It's a businessman's intuition.
"Let's go, go home." At the same time as the school bell rang, Yu Xia picked up her schoolbag and led Shui Yin out of the classroom as if she had heard the call call. Fortunately, Shui Yin was prepared in advance, otherwise he wouldn't even have time to put on his coat.
On the way back, Yu Xia sent a text message to Kiri, asking her to go to No. 22 Guangtian Road tonight no matter what.
After arriving home, the two went upstairs directly, and Yu Xia took out the envelope from her schoolbag and slumped on the sofa.
Now Shui Yin finally knows what happened in the ten minutes of noon.
"Wait, there's a question, why are you meeting Auntie so secretively, and how did Xia Huo know?" Shui Yin didn't know the truth of the matter yet, and this was exactly what Yu Xia wanted to confess to her.
"That's what I'm going to say to you......" Although Zao Ming didn't ask Yu Xia to keep this matter a secret, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better, and being slowly forgotten by those in the know over time is the best way to deal with this matter. Now, this matter has to be mentioned.
"Me and ......" Mizuni pointed to herself, she didn't know that Yu Xia had contacted Kiri.
"Sister Wu, she should be ...... soon"
There was a raining knock on the door downstairs.
"Here we are." Haxia got up and went to open the door.
The three of them gathered together, looking solemn, as if they were planning an earth-shattering bank robbery.
Yu Xia first repeated the events of noon to the fog, and then got straight to the point.
It took about twenty minutes, and the old story silenced the room like a resting note.
When Yu Xia reached the end, he picked up the envelope on the side, gently opened it, and took out the photo paper inside. First, he wanted to confirm whether the peach and royal wing in Yan Shan's mouth were really his mother (maybe it wasn't necessary); Second, he wanted to get acquainted with his mother's current face.
- But the moment she saw the photo, Yu Xia was stupid.
The woman in the photo is unconscious on the hospital bed in a hospital gown, her right hand on a drip, and her face is haggard.
Seeing Yu Xia's pupils dilated, he stood up reflexively like the sound of water and the fog.
Then, the picture seen by the trio becomes the second resting note.
After a while, Kiri comforted him and said, "Yu Xia, maybe this is just a fake photo specially designed to shake your determination. ”
"What if it's true......" Yu Xia gently stroked the haggard cheek of the strange but kind woman in the photo with her thumb. He couldn't imagine how she had survived all these years alone, looking at her emaciated mother in the photo, Yu Xia's heart was stabbed into a leak.
Now it seems that it is no longer relevant to discuss the issue of Yan Shan, and the only thing they can do now is to make a decision that they will not regret. The three of them sat around the coffee table, and no one could make a decision, because as long as there was a slight mistake, not only Yu Xia's mother would lose her place, but even Yu Xia would be implicated, and no one could afford this consequence.
"I'm going to see her......" Yu Xia's hands scraped his forehead vigorously, and the intense longing occupied his brain and his reason.
"Don't go to ......," said the fog almost at the same time. She bit her lip, her purple hair messing up on her chest.
"It's too risky!" Kiri raised her head and strengthened her tone.
"But what if it's the only chance......" Yu Xia's trembling body made Shui Yin's heart worry, and she gently hugged him, wanting to provide him with the only support he had to stabilize his emotions.
"It's not called 'chance'! Zaoming won't approve of you going! As he said this, a tear slipped from the corner of his eye.
"His decision is not always right!" The emotions in Yu Xia's heart burst out.
"There's no way Mai Ousti will let her out so easily, lifelong political protection! If you think about it, someone must be taking advantage of you! The two of them grew louder and more emotional.
The more Yuxia was excited, the harder Shui Yin hugged him, this argument was bound to happen, and there was nothing else she could do.
"Then I'll go see her in Maigosti!" Yuxia is out of control.
"How do you see her! If I could see it, Zaoming would have gone a long time ago! Mai Ou is so big, how do you know where she is, maybe ......" Misty fortunately did not continue, the trembling voice made the tears zigzag down the water.
"Xia Huo must know! I asked her and it was okay! Haxia's tears also broke down, and he shouted hoarsely into the fog.
A stream of hot tears flowed down from the fog, and seeing Yu Xia's painful expression, she couldn't say a word to stop him anymore......
"I don't care! Whatever you want! After using the last of her reason to shout this sentence to him, Kiri shook off and left......
