3. Water leakage
Chapter III
Ke Bei returned to the downstairs of the dormitory, and found that the front of the bulletin board was full of people, and squeezed in to take a look, it turned out that because of the murder of Hong Fuquan, the school issued an evacuation notice, allowing the students who stayed in the school to leave the school the day after tomorrow at the latest.
Before Ke Bei could decide whether to apply for a dormitory with the school again, she had already walked to the sixth floor, because there was a murder on the top floor, and even the entire floor was deserted, and the yellow warning strip was pulled several times, which was particularly eye-catching on the clean walkway.
I don't know if it's a mental effect, today's corridor is exceptionally quiet, not to mention human voices, I don't even know it, and the air is as if it is frozen.
Ke Bei's heart went up and down, and finally gritted her teeth and opened the bedroom door.
The room was stuffy and hot, like a cage drawer, and it was almost six o'clock, and the sun outside was still dazzling.
Quietly, nothing.
Ke Bei breathed a sigh of relief, and then subconsciously looked at the ceiling, thinking that there was a dead man lying on it, and the sound he heard last night was ...... She shivered, and her palms were cold.
Glancing at the key on the table, Ke Bei picked it up and rubbed it for a while, but still took out her mobile phone.
"Hey, senior, I want to move to the company dormitory now, are you free?"
Fang Qinghe was a little surprised: "Ouch, I thought you wanted to stay in the school permanently." ”
"I want to!" Ke Bei was a little depressed, "Who knew it would be so unlucky!" We were attacked just yesterday, and our school has another murder this morning! And guess who was killed?! ”
Ke Bei described the cause and effect vividly, as well as the hallucinations this morning, thinking about it and talking about it together, the more she talked about it, the more sad she became, and the more she talked about it, the more sad she became.
"You're definitely dazzled, you're just scared!" Fang Qinghe said: "Okay, I just got off work, I'll pick you up right away, and invite you to dinner by the way." ”
Ke Bei didn't have many things, and he heard Fang Qinghe say that the basic furniture company dormitory was all complete. In addition, now she was a little suspicious, and she just wanted to get out of here as much as possible, so she casually packed a few clothes and two quilts, and hurriedly ran downstairs to wait for someone - she felt panicked after staying on there for an extra minute.
Fang Qinghe came by the company's car, and the two had dinner by the way on the way.
It was already more than eight o'clock in the evening when I came to the happy community, but the summer nights were short and the days were long, and it was not completely dark at this time. Ke Bei's dormitory is arranged on the eighth floor, with elevator access, two households on the first floor, and it is a single room. The kitchen and bathroom are fully equipped with household appliances, and you can live in the bed by just wiping the dust.
Fang Qinghe didn't say much, picked up the broom, rolled up his sleeves and began to sweep the floor.
When it was almost ten o'clock, Ke Bei saw Fang Qinghe's face full of sweat, and his face was still a little tired, thinking that people had helped her before they had time to take a breath after work, although she was a little happy in her heart, she was really happy.
"Senior, I think it's almost over, and I'll do the rest by myself tomorrow."
Fang Qinghe looked at his watch, "Okay, I'll go back first." ”
"I'll take you downstairs." Ke Bei hurriedly put on her shoes.
The greening of the happy community is very good, the grass and trees are sparse, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, it is estimated that it is too hot, there are still many people concentrated on the grass to enjoy the coolness, from time to time there is a sparse laughter, the unique grass fragrance of summer together with the breeze, fluttering and flowing into the bottom of people's hearts.
The two walked and walked, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little ambiguous, Ke Bei also noticed it, and no one spoke for a while.
The parking lot was outside, and when he arrived at the gate of the community, Fang Qinghe refused to let Ke Bei send it again: "That's it, you pay attention to your own safety, and call me if you have anything." ”
Ke Bei opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything, just nodded.
When Fang Qinghe was gone, Ke Bei reacted and wanted to slap the two of them again-look! Such a great opportunity, I missed it again!
In fact, let's talk about appearance, although Ke Bei can't be regarded as a top-notch, but she is also a flower-level beauty - goose egg face, big eyes, small nose, plump lips, plus great-great-grandmother is Irish, although there are two generations apart, but the facial features can still be seen to be much deeper than others, and because of regular exercise, although the skin is not white, it looks particularly healthy and lively.
After three years of college, there are many people chasing after me. At first, she also tried to get one, but later found out that Nima is in love, which costs a lot of money! For a poor man whose father and mother have never provided living expenses after the age of eighteen, love is really a luxury, and it is better to work two more jobs if you have this time!
Over time, the big guys all felt that Ke Damei had a high vision, and no one could look down on him except Fang Qinghe, and there were fewer people who came to provoke him.
Ke Bei didn't mean that to Fang Qinghe at first, but when he was said like this, the fake became true.
Ke Bei entered the elevator, pressed the eighth floor, and was about to close the door, when he saw a man walking in this direction, so he waited.
When the people came in, Ke Bei found that this person was very tall, estimated to be one meter nine, standing there like a wall. When I got closer, I could vaguely smell a very special fragrance on the man's body, faint, but it smelled strange.
In these years, the gentlemen are finer than women, and they even wear perfume.
Seeing that he pressed the ninth floor, Ke Bei thought to himself that it was the upstairs neighbor, so he wanted to see what the person was like, and as soon as he looked up, the person was already standing in the corner, and because he was sideways, he couldn't see his face at all, he could only glimpse a high nose bridge and a well-defined chin.
It is estimated that it does not look bad.
Ke Bei thought to herself, after all, they are neighbors, why don't you have a conversation? Before I could come up with a reason, the eighth floor arrived.
As soon as she entered the house, she shivered violently!
Cooling down again?
When Ke Bei changed her shoes, she found that even the floor was cold, as if she had just applied a layer of ice, and she had goosebumps on her arms.
Yawned, quickly ran to take a hot shower, then rolled up the quilt, and fell asleep in less than two minutes.
Finally slept peacefully, the next day Ke Bei woke up only to feel refreshed, saw that there were many people downstairs in the morning exercise, and was also a little excited, while the heat had not come out, he immediately changed into sneakers and went for a morning run.
waited until her clothes and pants were soaked by her, and the depression caused by Hong Fuquan in the past two days seemed to be discharged with sweat, so she walked back slowly.
When she got downstairs to the unit, she didn't take the elevator, she climbed to the eighth floor in one breath, and was just about to take out the key to open the door, only to find that she didn't know who hung a plastic bag on her doorknob.
When I picked it up, it turned out to be two buns inside.
It's still hot.
Ke Bei: "......"
Takeaway delivered to the wrong door, right?
Ke Bei turned and knocked on the opposite door.
After a while, the crack in the door cracked, and both the inside and outside were stunned!
"Beibei?!"
“…… Old Yang?! ”
Ke Bei was immediately shocked - the one who opened the door turned out to be a senior sister from the same department as her, Yang Hui!
Yang Hui is one year higher than Ke Bei, a senior this year, and both of them were from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the school back then, because they have similar personalities, so they have a special play. At this time, Yang Hui seemed to have just woken up, her hair was very messy, and her face was still covered with two marks made by mats, and her eyes were staring at Ke Bei, as if she had seen a UFO.
"Why are you here?!" Ke Bei was a little excited, "Didn't you go abroad?!" ”
Yang Hui went abroad as an exchange student in the second semester of her junior year because of her excellent grades, and Ke Bei was also busy working at that time, so the two slowly broke off contact.
"Aren't I coming back!" Yang Hui patted her head: "Look at me, come in, come in, let's sit and talk." ”
Ke Bei entered the house and found that it was different from her room, it was a three-bedroom and two-living room, but the whole room looked like a typhoon had just passed, which made people a little unbearable to look at directly.
Yang Hui was not embarrassed at all, casually pointed to the pile of clothes on the sofa and said, "Sit down, see you sweat, I'll pour water for you." ”
"I just came back last week, and the jet lag hasn't come back yet." Yang Hui handed the water to Ke Bei, "This house belongs to my sister, and it has been empty since I got married, so I lived in it anyway." What about you? What are you doing here? ”
Ke Bei said: "Why did you come here, I live next door to you, I just moved here yesterday!" ”
"No, it won't! What a coincidence! Yang Hui was startled for a moment, then raised her eyebrows ambiguously and said, "Aren't you still graduating?" Don't...... Staying with your boyfriend? ”
"What," Ke Bei said, "aren't we going to do an internship, this is what the company arranged for me!" ”
In fact, the company dormitory where Ke Bei interned was not here, but the old dormitory area was already full, and the company had just recruited a lot of newcomers recently, and he was worried that he couldn't arrange accommodation.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they chatted cracklingly, and when Yang Hui finished washing and getting dressed, Ke Bei saw the plastic bag in her hand, and then remembered and said, "I almost forgot to talk to you, this is the takeaway you ordered?" They're all sent to me. ”
"No," Yang Hui took it and opened it, "I don't like steamed buns, and I don't even have soy milk!" ”
"Whose is that?" Ke Bei wondered, "There are only two of us on this floor." ”
Yang Hui: "Whatever, if no one wants it, just throw it away." ”
Yang Hui had to go to school to go through some formalities in the afternoon, so Ke Bei had a meal with her at noon and didn't stay, anyway, the two lived opposite each other, and they wanted to get together when they wanted.
In the afternoon, Ke Bei cleaned the house again, and by the way, the gray curtains were also removed and the dirty clothes were washed. I was about to dry my clothes on the balcony to dry, but my feet slipped and I almost fell to the ground.
Ke Bei bent down to see that the balcony was full of stagnant water!
Didn't you just drag on last night?
Ke Bei followed the water stain and found that it seemed to be seeping out of the ceiling.
This building has been around for some years, the wind and the sun are blowing, there are inevitably some cracks in the ceiling, and the water on the upper floor seeps down the cracks, no wonder this is the case!
Ke Bei could only take the mop and drag it again, but there was too much water, didn't she wring out the clothes upstairs? And what kind of quality is this clothes, the fading is too strict, and the water on the floor is a faint red.
Thinking about it, I specially found a piece of plastic sheeting and nailed it to the ceiling of the balcony, just to cover the cracks, so as not to seep water from above and stain her clothes.
Although the water leak is indeed a bit of a trick, compared to the school, this place is simply satisfying, so Ke Bei didn't care much.
Puzzled, Ke Bei came back from running the next morning and found that there were two more buns hanging on the doorknob, which was a little different from yesterday, this time there was an extra cup of soy milk.
