At 10:46 p.m. in the late spring of April, the ninth day after Qingming, the soft sound of the window hitting the windowsill came into the bathroom.

Gu Qi was holding the long hair all over the ground into the bathtub, when he heard the sound, he paused for a moment, and immediately stretched out the chain with the tips of his right fingers, grabbed the remaining hair like a giant claw and threw it on the bathtub, turned his head and ran, the chain tip scraped a white mark on the floor, making a harsh sound.

Rushing out of the bathroom, he stepped in three or two steps to the door of the room where the noise came, and tried to turn the doorknob, but the door locked from the inside.

There was a fourth person in the house, this fact sent chills down Gu Qi's spine, if this person came out to attack when he confronted Zeng Yun, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But now was not the time to be shocked, as he slammed the door open and broke into a strange bedroom.

The walls are also blue, lighter in color than Zeng Yun's, and there is a color gradient, close to white at the top, and darker the further down.

There is a strange lamp on the ceiling, the light is bright, but most of the light is blocked by a silver cylinder cover, the cover is full of holes in the shape of sea creatures, there are fish, shrimp, seahorses, turtles, etc., the light shines through the holes on the wall like the bottom of the sea, and touching or rotating the lampshade can liven up the whole bedroom.

In the corner, a single chuang2 is decorated with colorful coral, and on the other side is an octopus-shaped table and anemone-shaped stool, and a curtain printed with starfish is slammed open and raised high in the wind, revealing the open window at the back.

Gu Qi rushed to the window, pushed open the swaying window and looked out.

This is the third floor, and the downstairs is the green area of the community, planted with metasequoia, holly, camphor and other trees that are not easy to fall leaves, the vegetation on the ground has become sparse weeds, the branches and blades of grass swaying in the wind disturb Gu Qi's dynamic vision, after some careful search, he saw that small figure.

It was a little girl who looked to be only six or seven years old, with a long double ponytail, and a cat waist walking carefully in the corner between the building and the ground, the escape route she chose was excellent, but she was obviously inexperienced, if she stayed still in a dark corner, or hid in the stairwell of a certain unit, then Gu Qi would definitely miss it.

He lifted his right foot and pressed it on the windowsill, grabbed the edge with both hands, and jumped down.

The little girl can jump from a height of nearly ten meters, and Gu Qi can naturally do it, but on the way down, the little girl glanced back and happened to see his figure, no longer sneaking, and running wildly.

She was short in stature, but her running speed was amazing, she could step two or three meters away in one step, and the wall of the community also jumped up with only one vertical jump, she looked back at the wall again, and jumped outside with a scream.

As soon as Gu Qi landed, he began to run wildly, running in a straight line, and he had already chased close at this time, but his speed on the wall was slower, and when he jumped, he was pulled away by some distance.

Outside the wall was a path, not a single pedestrian, and the dim light illuminated the small figure in front of her, dressed in white cotton pajamas printed with cartoon characters, barefoot, carrying a light blue plush toy, which should be a dolphin in shape, with two ponytails fluttering behind her, looking eerie and wolf-like.

This situation is the last thing Gu Qi wants to see, he can't catch up with her, and she is running towards the main street, where the street lights are very bright, and there are more vehicles and pedestrians, a little girl running at such a speed must be eye-catching, and the identity of the forbidden woman may be exposed.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Gu Qi pulled up his hood, took out a cigarette and lit it, and slowed down.

This strategy proved to be successful, and when she reached the intersection, the little girl looked back and saw that he had not caught up, and slowed down.

When they came to the main street, the two had a tacit understanding of trotting and walking, always maintaining a certain distance.

However, the appearance of a barefoot girl in pajamas on the street is bound to attract attention whether she is running or walking, and after ignoring a couple and two couples, a group of young people are approaching in front of her.

Judging from their mannerisms, it is obvious that they are a group of gangsters who want to pretend to be cool but have no way to do it.

No one wanted to get close to them, but the little girl went straight to them, and since she had been seen, it was impossible to go around, so it was better to make good use of these people.

"Big brother, that guy is chasing me."

With her pitiful eyes and her arms pointing backwards, she drew the eyes and attention of this group of people to Gu Qi, and quietly stepped aside.

They will not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not only does their side have an absolute advantage in numbers, but also happens to be on the side of "justice", even if Gu Qi is beaten half to death, they don't have to be responsible, maybe they can get a certificate or something, this cute little girl can arouse anyone's desire to protect.

Seeing this, Gu Qi lowered his hood and walked in front of the other party to stop.

Things are getting more and more troublesome, and if he continues to chase, this group of people will definitely cause trouble behind him, and it will be easy to keep them around, but there is a surveillance camera on the telephone pole across the street, which is something that will cause infinite trouble.

"Boy, what's the mix?" Walking all the way in the middle, the oldest man asked, snorting with wine, a pinch of beard on his chin that was dyed yellow, and there was food scraps on it.

Gu Qi lowered his head and didn't speak, the little girl was about to disappear into the street at this time.

"Damn, Brother Yuan asked you, are you dumb?" The tall thin man standing next to Yellowbeard stepped forward and waved his hand to knock down Gu Qi's hood.

Gu Qi turned his head to avoid it, and suddenly put his right hand into the pocket of his clothes, this action looked like he was going to pull out a weapon, which startled the thin and tall man, and hurriedly retreated, looking at him with a wary face.

I said...... What do you want? The yellow-bearded man known as Brother Yuan spat at Gu Qi's feet, and several other people walked around behind Gu Qi and sandwiched him in the middle.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Gu Qi's hands, if he took out a weapon, they would rush up and carry out the most essential siege; If it's something else, you can wait, and the cat won't eat the mouse so quickly when it catches it.

Gu Qi slowly pulled out his hand, clenched his fist, and the back of his hand went down, reaching out to Brother Yuan.

What can be held in the palm of the hand, even if it is a weapon, is not too lethal, this group of people relaxed.

"Damn, you're playing tricks, aren't you?" The thin and tall man breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the retreat just now was too embarrassing, and he became angry, and opened Gu Qi's hand with a "horn", and took advantage of the situation to lift the hood again.

Gu Qi took a step sideways, avoided it again, and spread his palm in front of Brother Yuan's face, there were two crumpled banknotes in his palm, one for ten yuan and one for one yuan.

This scene looked like a robbery, but the amount of money was miserable, and the group of people stared blankly at the eleven dollars, with different expressions, trying to remember which part made this kid misunderstand.

Gu Qi's words prolonged their hair time: "If you do it with me, you will be injured." ”

The cold tone and low tone made Brother Yuan couldn't help but shudder, the wine dissipated cleanly, he suddenly remembered something, and glanced back, there were people not far away looking over here, and the little girl who asked them for help had disappeared.

Unfortunately, he was the only one who noticed the anomaly.

The thin and tall man clasped Gu Qi's hand bowl with one hand, and the other hand reached for the hood again, this time he would not let Gu Qi dodge again, and planned to grab it directly, and then tear it off.

In the next second, two balls of banknotes fell to the ground, the tall and thin man bent down, as if he was bowing, Gu Qi clenched his fists again, his feet were apart, his waist was hunched and his head was bowed, the back of his hand was still facing down, and his fist was sunk into the upper abdomen of the tall and thin man.

The stomach is the best place to strike, it can be greatly stretched and narrowed, much tougher than the other internal organs, and the reaction is strong immediately after a heavy blow, the thin and tall eyes are round, the tongue becomes extremely stiff, and a terrible gasp from the depths of the throat is released.

The drama has been done enough, the surveillance camera can't record, and the picture of "robbery" and the thin and tall man doing it has been filmed, and what happened after that can be explained by self-defense, the only thing that needs to be paid attention to is just the strength of the blow, just make these people uncomfortable for a few days, there is no need to kill.

The attack came too suddenly, and it wasn't until Gu Qi's fist was withdrawn and the tall and thin man fell to the ground retching that the people around him reacted and started to move their hands with a scolding.

The counterattack was ineffective, everyone only had one chance to make a move, but whether it was a punch or a kick, Gu Qi's right fist kept repeating the same action, constantly hooking into the opponent's abdomen, and it only took more than ten seconds for the group of people to fall halfway, some lying on their sides, some kneeling, some rolling around, collectively covering their stomachs.

Brother Yuan took two steps back in surprise, hurriedly pulled out the belt, and aimed at the top of Gu Qi's head, his belt style is older, and the outside is decorated with metal rings, both offensive and defensive, it is the most suitable for such an occasion.

The belt smashed down on his head, it was urgent and fierce, Gu Qi didn't have time to dodge, he raised his hand to block it, and the edge of the belt was cut on the back of his hand, Brother Yuan was happy at first, and then frowned.

He has hit many people with this belt, but he has never felt like this today, the belt hit it is not like **, it is more like hitting a hard object, but there is nothing on the back of Gu Qi's hand, and that hand is not a prosthetic.

Only Brother Yuan's stomach was hurt, Gu Qi felt his abdominal muscles, and added two more hooks, and after three punches, Brother Yuan vomited, rolled his eyes and fainted.

In less than twenty seconds, more than ten people fell to the ground, and it was only at this time that people who loved to watch the excitement came over excitedly, Gu Qi sorted out his clothes, pulled up his hood, and walked briskly in the direction of the little girl's escape with his head down.

While regretting that they were too slow to react and didn't take a wonderful shot, the onlookers held their mobile phones high and filmed Brother Yuan's painful expressions, and three of them deliberately lowered their mobile phones to shoot his face when they passed by Gu Qi, but unfortunately they failed to do so, the lens on their mobile phones was inexplicably broken and could not be repaired.

The little girl was long gone, but Gu Qi was not in a hurry, he walked to the intersection and stopped, stood still for two seconds, and looked up at the top of the fence of the sidewalk, which was empty.
