6. Disappearance
Chapter VI
At night, Ke Bei still lived at Yang Hui's house, and after eating takeout, the two sat on the sofa and chatted with a fan.
Yang Hui picked up a slice of watermelon and handed it to Ke Bei: "What's wrong with the fat bear?" β
"There are still no clues," Ke Bei said with an irritated face: "I went to print a cat search notice in the afternoon, and each unit building and the perimeter of the community have been posted, and I don't know if it's useful, hey, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor......"
Yang Hui also sighed.
"Oh, and," Ke Bei spat out watermelon seeds, "I asked when I went to see the surveillance, there are people living upstairs!" They moved in on the same day as me! I heard you talk so godly before, Nima scared me to death! β
"How do I know," Yang Hui spread her hands innocently and said, "Those things were also told to me by Aunt Cleaning, and I have only been back from abroad for a long time, how do I know if there is anyone living there?" Besides......"
Yang Hui took a bite of the watermelon, and said in a vague voice: "You said that some strange things happened around you, why did you see the dead man, the black shadow, oh, and the inexplicable bun that is put at the door every day, can I not think about it?" β
"Don't mention the buns!" Ke Bei looked depressed, "When I checked the surveillance today, guess what?" The person who gave me the buns turned out to be Xie Mo on the ninth floor! β
Yang Hui was stunned, then reacted, and squirted: "Oh, I'll go, people won't fall in love with you at first sight just after moving here, right?" β
Yang Hui laughed, "This flirtatious technique is too low, should he do good deeds without leaving a name?" I also send buns every day, and I'm not afraid that you will get tired of eating. β
Ke Bei: "......"
Yang Hui laughed at it as a joke for a while, then winked at Ke Bei and said, "Hey, isn't that Xie Mo handsome?" Do you have any thoughts on him? β
"What!" Ke Bei was squeezed by her and blushed a little, "We've only met once, how can you be as dirty as you think." β
"You-" Yang Huite stared at her sharply, "Shouldn't it be interesting to return the other party Qinghe?" β
Ke Bei lowered her eyelids and didn't speak.
Yang Hui said: "You have been ambiguous for almost three years, what age is this, if you really like people, go and confess!" β
"I haven't mentioned the eight characters yet, so I'll mention it first." Ke Bei smiled and diverted the topic: "Let's talk about you, I heard that you have a boyfriend in foreign affairs before, when will you show me?" β
"He's ......" Yang Hui's tone was a little strange, "I'm still abroad at this time, so I don't have anything to say." β
Ke Bei saw that her smile suddenly faded, and she didn't ask again.
β¦β¦
Ke Bei is very frightened of her house now, so Yang Hui asked her to simply move in with the two of them, anyway, Yang Hui has many rooms in that house, and there is no need for rent, and the two can still have a companion together.
Ke Bei naturally agreed without hesitation.
On Saturday, Ke Bei saw that the sun was shining, so she dared to go home and pack her things. After not being at home for a few days in a row, Ke Bei remembered that several clothes were confiscated, and when she went to the balcony, she was a little careless, and stepped on the water with a "chirp" - Nima's balcony seeped water again!
Ke Bei shook her neck and looked down, she almost didn't make her sick, and there was a dense layer of cat hair floating on the water on the floor!
It should be that the fat bear used to lose a lot of hair was hidden in the corner, and it was all out after being soaked in water.
Ke Bei was a little dense phobia, and she got goosebumps when she saw it, and hurriedly ran to get a garbage shovel to sweep away the stagnant water. In the process of mopping the floor, she saw that not only did there be cat hair on the floor, but even the walls were stained a lot, spreading to the ceiling......
ββNo, no matter how much hair you have, you can't get it on the ceiling......
The cracks in the ceiling were getting bigger and bigger, and you could still see light leaking through it. Ke Bei stepped on the chair and took a closer look, and found that the hairs were all seeping down with the water from that crack! Or-
Is there a cat upstairs? Or is it......
Ke Bei suddenly had a conjecture - could it be that the fat bear ran upstairs?
She hurriedly looked around the balcony, and there were indeed a lot of specially made convex decorations next to it, if it was a cat, she might be able to jump upstairs with these decorations!
I had an idea in my heart, and I couldn't sit still. Ke Bei immediately ran to change her shoes, planning to go upstairs and ask.
But as soon as the door was opened, Ke Bei knew that there was no need to go up and askβthe fat bear was sitting upright at the door, staring at her with a pair of yellow eyes.
Ke Bei was stunned for a moment, then ecstatic.
"Fat Bear !!!!" Grabbing its neck meat, Ke Bei was so angry that she couldn't help but give it two blows on the buttocks, "Where did the dead child go?!" I'm in a hurry, you know! β
The fat bear "meowed", shrunk his head and drilled straight into Ke Bei's arms, lying on her like a koala, which was completely different from the noble and cold in the past. Ke Bei checked it and found that it was not injured except that it was black and dirty, and the bell on its neck was missing, so she was relieved.
The fat bear is estimated to have suffered a lot for two days, and when he bathed it, he couldn't be well-behaved, his eyes were always on Ke Bei, and he raised his legs when he asked him to lift his legs, and he turned his belly when he turned his belly, but he was unwilling to live or die when he washed his fart.
After taking a bath and drying his hair, the fat bear shrank in Ke Bei's arms, looking like he had been insulted and had nothing to love, Ke Bei was speechless for a moment, and smoothed it with his hand: "You said you are a little female cat, what are you shy?!" β
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Ke Bei put it down and got up to open the door.
The person who came was Zhou Nannan, and both hands were full of things.
Zhou Nannan: "Hurry up, but I'm going to die!" β
Ke Bei took the things and said, "Come here when you come, why are you still bringing things?" β
"It's all sent by my mother," Zhou Nannan turned around, but couldn't find the water cup, "What about the water, I'm dying of thirst!" My mother told me to remember to send you a copy, I really don't know who her daughter is! β
Ke Bei poured her a glass of water, and then rummaged through the bag, sure enough, they were all specialties of her hometown, and there were some braised pork made by Zhou's mother herself, all of which were wrapped in vacuum packaging.
Ke Bei's heart was happy, "It's better to be an aunt, I'll call her again tonight." β
Zhou Nannan sat on the sofa and stopped talking.
Kebei: "What's wrong?" With a constipated face, what can't we say? β
Zhou Nannan: "Your dad has returned to Rongcheng." β
Ke Bei was stunned.
"My mom said she saw him when she was shopping the other dayβ"
Zhou Nannan hesitated: "With a woman and a child." β
Ke Bei pursed her lips and was silent.
Zhou Nannan looked at her like that, and felt a little uncomfortable.
Ke Bei's parents divorced when she was four years old, and Ke's mother took the divorce certificate and went abroad with a strange man the next day.
Of course, I didn't give a penny before leaving.
Grandma Ke was not in good health at that time, she was still blind in one eye, and she relied on the 500 yuan subsidized by the state every month. However, Grandma Ke's temper is also twisted, and she fights hard to take a breath, dragging her scarred body every day to pick up garbage in the morning and in the dark, and she sends Ke Bei to college!
When Grandma Ke died, Zhou Nannan still remembers it vividly - Ke Bei crouched on the top of the mountain and cried in her throat, her thin shoulders seemed to carry so much of the whole world.
But after so many years, I have never seen Ke Bei say a cruel word to her parents.
After a while.
Kebei: "He's ...... now." What does it look like? β
Zhou Nannan: "My mother didn't pay attention to it, she looked at it from a distance, it is said that she is a lot older, fatter, and she doesn't look very good." β
Ke Bei didn't answer, she was thinking about the last time she saw that so-called father, was she six or seven years old? Is that tall? Do you like to grow a beard? Is it fat or skinny? Not at all impressed.
When she was young, every time someone used her parents to talk about something, Ke Bei hated and hurt.
But now, it's so strange that I can't even hate it.
Zhou Nannan regretted mentioning this to her a little, and hurriedly smiled reluctantly: "It's all in the past, there's nothing to talk about." Let's talk about something else," she looked around, "Your dormitory is good, it's big enough, and the lighting and ventilation are good!" β
Ke Bei replied to her words, "Yes, but it's strange and lonely to live alone." β
Zhou Nannan was timid, Ke Bei didn't dare to tell her about the strange things that happened recently, but just picked and said: "I live in the door of a senior sister of our student union in the past, she has three bedrooms and two living rooms, I am packing up and planning to go to live with her, and I happen to have a companion." β
"I said why are your clothes in a mess," Zhou Nannan stood up, "Then you can clean up, Yang Fan is still downstairs, I'll go back first." β
Sending Zhou Nannan away, Ke Bei stayed on the sofa for a while, until the fat bear jumped on her and rubbed hard, and then came back to her senses - it was already dusk!
Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet dark, Ke Bei hurriedly packed up her things with the fat bear and moved to the opposite door.
Yang Hui came back in the evening and said in surprise: "Yo, the fat bear has been found?" β
Ke Bei looked at the lump of flesh sleeping in the dark on her bed, and whispered, "No, it ran back by itself." β
"I'll just say, what was eaten by the black shadow, we can't scare ourselves!" Yang Hui couldn't help but touch the fat bear's tail, "It's so fat, if I am a ghost, I won't eat it, I'm afraid of high blood pressure." β
Ke Bei: "......"
Ke Bei was very relieved to live with Yang Hui for half a month at the beginning, and Zhang Meiqi was sent on a business trip, Ke Bei changed leaders, the internship work was gradually on the right track, and there were no strange things around her, and the breakfast at the door was gone.
Not long after she was happy, Ke Bei had to move back again.
Because Yang Hui suddenly disappeared.
