Chapter 14: Where is Siqing?
"Suzu-" Ayton Girls' High School is out of class.
Zhao Baian stood in the corridor and waited for Yang Zichen to get out of school.
A figure flashed at the corner of the stairs, it seemed like she was coming to this class just now? I don't know why I turned back again.
"Hey~ Xiao An! It's time for school! Yang Zichen trotted out of the classroom and greeted Zhao Bai'an.
"Yes, yes." Zhao Bai'an and Zi Chen clapped their hands, "Go home?" Or is there something else going on? ”
"I'm going to join the club."
"What club?"
"It's the drama club, Siqing is the president, aren't we about to graduate, so I plan to act in a long play after graduation as the club's graduation activity. We have already agreed with the school that the venue will be lent to us in the evening after the graduation ceremony, and then the drama club plans to invite many students to come and see it. ”
"Huh? Siqing is the president? I didn't expect it, hmm...... Do you think she's a very changeable person? Zhao Baian muttered to himself.
"Oh no!" Zhao Baian was afraid that Yang Zichen would misunderstand her, so he hurriedly explained, "Just feel that your interests are particularly extensive?" For example, you specialize in English, and then she is very good at drawing, and now she is the president of the drama club or something. ”
"Hey, it's okay," Yang Zichen waved his hand, "I also asked her before why Siqing came to our English direction." She said that one is because Ayton has no drama direction, and the other seems that she studied English in order to develop abroad in the future, that is, she was admitted to a foreign university for drama direction. She really loves acting! Shakespeare's plays are her favorite, and many lines can be blurted out directly. It seems that she hopes to learn the language and learn all kinds of history at the same time, so that she can have a deeper understanding of theater. ”
"I see, it's really amazing! I used to see her draw so well, but I didn't expect her biggest interest to be theater performances. I wondered why she didn't go in the direction of painting with her sister Si Li. ”
The two walked down the stairs as they chatted.
Painting may be a talent for the two sisters, her sister seems to really love it, and Siqing feels that she likes drama more, so she doesn't go to painting. And according to herself, it's okay to have a painting direction in the house, there's no need to take the same path, and if my sister likes to paint, let my sister take the road of painting. And it's not easy for the sisters to compare the two directions. ”
"It feels like it's thought through, and it sounds like the two sisters have a pretty good relationship."
"I don't know about this, after all, I'm a little familiar with Siqing, and we don't usually talk about this matter. You know, Si Li, just... It's not very easy to get along with, so I don't know much about it. ”
"Eun, I'll just ask." The two walked out of the main building and walked to the back of the school, where the after-school activities of the drama club should be.
"But doesn't it matter about school? Let's just take part in your performance this time as a high school junior. Zhao Bai'an asked with some concern.
"It's only the beginning of October, and it's still early." Yang Zichen waved his hand.
"But it looks like you're going to have to rehearse for a long time."
"Yes, the script is still being adjusted according to the specific performance. I personally don't have any problems with academic problems, as long as I continue to maintain my current level, I can be admitted to Tsinghua University, but it's still an English department. Yang Zichen pursed her lips, and seemed not particularly satisfied with continuing her studies in English, "Then Siqing's words I just said are preparing to apply for foreign drama performance majors, and our drama performance may be able to help her." ”
After chatting, the two came to a low building.
"Hey, isn't the door open?" The door of the low building was closed, and Yang Zichen ran over and shook the doorknob again in disbelief, "Sure enough, I can't open it." ”
"It's strange, it's usually Siqing who opens the door, except for the security guard, she is the only one who has the key." Yang Zichen continued to Zhao Bai'an suspiciously.
Zhao Bai'an asked: "What about when you just got out of school?" You're in the same class, could it be that we came too early? ”
Yang Zichen tilted her head: "No, Siqingren was not there in the last class just now, I thought she came here in advance because of something rehearsing, after all, she had also skipped the last class before, we are all surprised, and the teacher also knows her ambitions, so he doesn't care." ”
"Then why don't you call her and ask?" Zhao Bai'an proposed.
"Oh! Xiao An, you have a point! Yang Zichen took out his mobile phone and found Siqing's number.
"No, still no one ......answers" Yang Zichen called three times in a row, and could only hear a long beep, "Either she's busy, but it's also possible that the school signal is not good." ”
"It's just really weird," Yang Zichen closed her phone, "where will she go at this time?" I used to rehearse here every day. ”
Zhao Bai'an made another suggestion: "Then either let's find her?" Or do you just go back first? ”
"It's better to look for it, after all, it's a bit abnormal, what if something happens. And today, our class is early, and the other students who are participating in the rehearsal will also come, so I will definitely be as confused as me. It would be best if you could find Siqing. ”
"Then where do you think Siqing might be?"
Listening to Zhao Bai'an's question, Yang Zichen fell into deep thought: "En..."
Zhao Bai'an suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Is it possible that Siqing is in this building?" ”
She pointed forward, "Is it possible that she opened the door and went to rehearsal first, and then the door was closed again for some reason......
"By the way, first of all, you have to take a look at this door ......" Zhao Bai'an walked into the low building and carefully observed the door lock structure, "That's right, it is indeed the type of door lock that will automatically lock when closed." ”
"Eh~ I've never noticed it, maybe you have a point." Yang Zichen also leaned his head up and took a closer look at the door lock.
"When I came before, it seemed that this door would be blocked by a door blocker......" Yang Zichen held his chin with one hand and recalled carefully, "Then I'll call the security guard to open the door now~"
When the door opened, a clammy and cold breath rushed in, and the air inside seemed to flow at a different speed than outside, just like the air in an old house that had been sealed for a long time, making people feel frozen and flowing very slowly. Only the action of the two of them opening the door gave some agitation to the stagnant air.
As soon as she entered the door, Zhao Bai'an had a hunch that her flash of inspiration just now was wrong, the air here was not vibrant, and Siqing was not here.
But the doors are open, and they have to be looked.
"Siqing~" Yang Zichen trotted all the way into the room with the largest door on the first floor.
It is a small auditorium, and there is a big stage at the front, but there are not many audience seats at the back, only about a dozen rows, and it seems that this is the main place for their usual rehearsals.
"Well...... Siqing is not here...... That ......" Yang Zichen trotted directly to the side of the stage from the front door, then jumped onto the big stage and walked directly to the left inside.
Backstage is piled up with miscellaneous performance props, tables and chairs. The structure of the low building is strange, there is a back door in the background, and when it opens, you will be presented with a narrow corridor with windows on one side and small doors on the other.
Originally, there was another space behind the stage, and the structure of this low building was equivalent to a small auditorium with a large stage that almost ran through the entire building, and the other rooms that could be accessed at the entrance were only half the width of the low building, and only through the back door of the large auditorium could you find out where the other half of the room was.
"Eh~ Xiao An, Siqing is not in the room where we usually read the lines." Yang Zichen closed a door in the corner.
Zhao Bai'an opened the door next to the back door, there were many kinds of wigs and costumes in the room, and several wigs fell to the ground, but there was still no one.
"Ahh This is one of the garment rooms. Hey? Was there such a mess before? Yang Zichen poked his head in, "Except for the auditorium and the line room, we don't usually go to other rooms when we rehearse." ”
But to be on the safe side, the two of them checked every room.
Consistent with Zhao Bai'an's feelings when he stood at the gate, Siqing was not here.
Yang Zichen couldn't help but feel a little lost: "Hey~ Where will Siqing be?" She's always here at this time, so I can't think of anything else. ”
"Shall we go back to the main building and have a second look?" Zhao Bai'an suggested that if the main building could not be found, it might be a waste of time to look for it again.
"Yes, good!" Yang Zichen nodded.
She agreed, and the two walked back the way they had come.
Ah, there's a figure at the top of the stairs of the main building.
Is it Siqing?
