Chapter Eighty-Four: She's Gone
The sound made me hold my breath for a moment, and my mouth was open, but I couldn't make a sound.
Because I don't remember Jiaci's father's voice in my memory. So I can't tell whether the person on the other end of the phone at this time is him, but I still feel that this sound of feeding is somewhat familiar in my heart, but this familiarity is mixed with a strong sense of strangeness.
Just like that, when I was holding my phone in a daze, there was another "Hey?" on the phone. ”。
The voice was a little heavier than before, and it was obvious that I was feeling a little impatient.
This feed made me panic, and I still didn't speak.
At this time, I realized that I had made a hasty call, because I didn't think about what I was going to say, and I didn't expect the call to go through so easily.
At this moment, I only felt a blank piece of my brain, and I didn't know how I was going to speak, and I didn't even know if Jiaci's father would hang up the phone directly when he heard my voice.
Fortunately, just when I was panicking, Ling Lingling, who was sitting opposite, saw that something was wrong, only to see her suddenly stand up and stretch out her hand towards me. He took my phone from my hand and whispered into my ear
"Hey.."
Her actions made me not come back to my senses for a while, and after I reacted, I saw her move her mouth again and said into the phone
"Hmm. Hello uncle. I am.. Her classmates. Because her phone couldn't get through, that's why I called you... She has something that is still in school, and our homeroom teacher wants me to ask if she still needs it? ”
Ling Lingling's face was calm when she said this, not like a person who was lying at all, the only thing that was wrong was that the word "she" at the beginning seemed a little stiff, it must be because she didn't know Wang Jiaci's name, so she said so.
At this time, I couldn't hear what Jiaci's father was saying on the phone. But since Ling Lingling has called her uncle, she must really be Jiaci's father, right? This is undoubtedly good news for me, because it at least shows that Jiaci's father has not changed his mobile phone number, and it can also be said that his chances in China are very high, and I don't believe that the mobile magic grasp can be extended abroad, so at this time I am nervous and a little uneasy.
And just when I was thinking about this, Ling Lingling's expression on the other side instantly became a little solemn, and I saw that her eyes first lit up, and then dimmed again.
Her reaction gave me a bad feeling inexplicably. Sure enough, in the next second, I saw her move, holding my mobile phone and about to walk outside the hot pot restaurant.
Seeing that she was going out to answer the phone, I came back to my senses all of a sudden, and quickly followed to stand up, but just when I stood up to follow her out, I saw Ling Lingling turn around, shook her head at me silently, and signaled me not to follow.
I was stunned when I saw her shaking her head, and my feet also took root, and I stood in place.
Ling Lingling quickly turned around and slowly walked out of the door of the store.
Seeing her figure walking out of the door, the unusually strong sense of ominousness in my heart was aggravated a little, and I looked out through the glass, a layer of warm fog made it impossible for me to see her appearance clearly. I could only see that she kept answering the phone, as if she was still talking about something.
Although I don't quite understand why she is like this, I can more or less know that she must have her reasons, even if I don't know her, and I can even say that I am not familiar with Ling Lingling, but what she has done has made me feel that she is a very reliable girl.
In this way, I looked at the direction of the door with anxiety in my heart, and after a while, Ling Lingling finally put down his phone and walked back.
As soon as I saw her walking back, I hurriedly looked at her, and when she just approached me, I couldn't help but ask
"What's going on, the guy on the phone.. Is it Jia Ci's father? What did you tell him? They didn't go abroad, did they? Did you mention Wang Jiaci? ”
As I said this, I looked at Ling Lingling's hand, and saw that she was holding my mobile phone, obviously hanging up.
At this time, she raised her hand and handed me the phone, then sat down and said
"Her name is Wang Jiaci?" It's a nice name."
Seeing that she didn't answer my question, I took the phone and looked at it, then sat down and asked nervously
"What do you say?" She... Is she okay? ”
Seeing Ling Lingling's appearance, she must have asked something, otherwise she wouldn't have been on the phone for such a long time.
Hearing me ask again, Ling Lingling seemed a little reluctant to speak, and was silent for a while before speaking
"Do you really want to know?" As I've just said, the more you expect something, the more disappointing it is."
Ling Lingling's words obviously had other deep meanings, and when I heard her say this, my heart trembled for a moment, and then I said with some depression
"So, you didn't ask for news about her... Well, even if she didn't ask, it would be fine, at least she knew her father's mobile phone number, and she could in the future..."
Unexpectedly, before I could finish speaking, Ling Lingling waved his hand and interrupted me
"No, I asked for news from her... It's just.."
"I don't really want to tell you.."
Ling Lingling's words made me stop my voice, and the whole person looked at her with some surprise.
It took a full seven or eight seconds for me to come to my senses and ask suspiciously
"You asked. . . News of her? Why don't you want to tell me? ”
As soon as these words came out, I realized the problem in my heart, and sure enough, Ling Lingling still didn't mean to open her mouth when I asked this, she just looked at me, her eyes became complicated and difficult to understand.
She and I looked at each other like this, and after a long while, she finally moved and said coldly
"When I was very young, I knew a truth. "Longitudinal craftsman's garbage.
"That's that there are some things that it's always better to know than to know, so... I don't want to tell you.."
Sure enough, Ling Lingling's words were similar to what I guessed, there must be something bad about her, so she would be like this.
I was speechless for a moment, and hesitated for a moment before I spoke to her
"Do you know any bad news?" Tell me, I want to know.."
Even he was a little surprised when his tone was slow, presumably because he was a little hesitant.
Hearing me say this, Ling Lingling's expression changed slightly, her face was a little solemn, but she still looked very calm.
After a moment she took a deep breath and spoke
"Are you sure?" I don't care, but I don't think you will. I feel in a better mood or something."
Her words made me more and more sure that something had happened to Wang Jiaci, otherwise she would have told me as soon as she came back, and she would not have been so hesitant.
Speaking of which, at this time, I didn't feel nervous, the only thing left was to feel that my body was floating, as if only a simple body was left.
After a while, I nodded and said seriously
"Well, you say it, she.. What's going on? I don't have to worry about it either. ”
It is estimated that it was my serious appearance that Ling Lingling had no reason to refuse, she lowered her head slightly, and then looked at me again, and said in a calm tone
"The person who just answered the phone is indeed her father... He told me.
"She's gone.."
Although the voice behind the words was a little small, I still heard it clearly.
I just felt like I had been struck by lightning in an instant, and all my internal organs were scorched all at once.
A sense of fear that I had never felt before swirled back and forth in my body, my body began to tremble slightly, my hair began to tingle again and again, and my limbs seemed to lose sensation.
At this time, Ling Lingling was still expressionless, her face was a little pale, and her lips were also faintly purple, looking at me without any reaction, as if she was looking at a stranger.
And I looked at her in despair, and after half a minute, I bit my lip and tears flowed out.
At the moment when I burst into tears, Ling Lingling slowly turned her head away, as if she didn't want to see me like this.
