On the path away from the building, Qiu Xuan stared at the weather-beaten ravines on the face of the person opposite, and was silent for a long time without speaking.

The two of them seem to be holding a childish game where whoever moves first loses, and if you don't know, you'll think it's two performance artists.

Finally, as if she couldn't hold it anymore, the woman stared at Qiu Xuan's face for a long time and said, "You don't look like a peach at all." ”

Qiu Xuan: "I've said it, I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore." ”

"Is their family good to you?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Do you have to talk to me like that!" It was only then that the woman really showed a little anger, and she looked at Qiu Xuan with obscure eyes, but there was not complete disgust and disgust in her eyes. "No matter what, I'm also Peach's mother, I ...... I know I'm incompetent. I, I ......"

"I'm sorry."

Finally, she said. The middle-aged woman lowered her back, which had already been bent, and Qiu Xuan stood aside and looked at it coldly, pun intended: "The person you should apologize to is not me." Moreover, just a sentence of 'right not to go' can really offset all the damage? If you really think that it was Tao Tao's mother who wanted to do something for her in the end, go to Qin Nanxun's primary trial, instead of wasting time here with me. ”

“…… They were willing to keep the mountain and give him a new job. Finally she couldn't bear it anymore, and the woman's old palm covered her mouth, and cloudy tears slipped down her eyes.

Qiu Xuan didn't want to know what Tao Shan had done and who she had offended, so she didn't say a word more, and walked straight to the highway.

"You've made your choice, haven't you?"

Sitting in the car on the way back again, Qiu Xuan looked at the decay and decay speeding by outside the window with an uncertain expression. The mobile phone shook slightly, except for a message sent by Jiang Yu that "Qin Nanxun's first trial has been postponed", but he didn't expect it to be another message from Du Ruo.

Du Ruo: I wish you all a happy birthday in advance.

Qiu Xuan frowned and replied: Is there something wrong?

Du Ruo: There is nothing else, it is just that I happened to pass by the cake shop on the way out of school, so I took Qin Xiao in and went shopping, and suddenly felt it. It's nice that you two have the same birthday.

Du Ruo: How is Tao Tao's matter investigated? You wouldn't be so naïve as to think that the Tao family would testify against her, don't be stupid. The youngest son of their family committed an accident, and the original sale of the child was just for him, the remnants of feudal thought, and the girl was also unlucky.

Sure enough, the pair of "eyes" that have been looking at her all the time are Du Ruo.

Qiu Xuan held the phone and felt that the knuckles of her fingers were beginning to become congested and white. She suddenly typed a line of words: Why do you want to help Qin Nanxun?

Du Ruo: Because he is the "second uncle", no matter how animal/raw he is, we are still a family. You're just helping outsiders send their own family members to prison with your own hands? It's too cold-blooded, we're a family, Qiu Xuan...... Hehehe, forever, family.

The reply is interrupted at this point, and with the battery flashing in the upper right corner, the screen is completely black.

It's over. Qiu Xuan thought so.

It's over, she doesn't have any cash, she doesn't have money to pay for a taxi.

……

When Qiu Xuan finally persuaded the driver master to leave for a while to get the money after saying that she would never run away, she rushed into the gate of the Qin family, and then was surprised to find that there was no one in the house.

She walked to her room and pulled out the piggy bank, pausing as she caught a glimpse of the white above the pillow. A tooth that was too familiar to her to be familiar with it would not have been hidden in the pillow, but would have been placed on top of her pillow in such a high-sounding manner that it was completely provocative.

Someone else died.

After Qiu Xuan paid the money to the driver, she turned around and locked herself in the room, her eyes turning around the unconsumed puppets one by one. Nine times out of ten, the teeth were pulled out by the pair of "eyes" that monitored her, that is, the red-dressed dismemberment ghost that Lu Zhaokun turned into, although I don't know what method was used, but it was completely instructed by Du Ruo.

just asked a circle of people around her who were related to her, and they all said that they didn't know about it and felt that no one had been killed.

And to determine the identity of the deceased is actually very simple, that night Qiu Xuan swallowed a large dose of sleeping pills, and the next day, she looked at the childlike and social tattoo under the pillow The inch-headed man who formed a great contrast with the social tattoo, fell silent for a while.

She remembered this person, one of Sister Lan's group, and at first she mistook him for the leader of this group.

It's the young man with a tattoo on his arm, Sister Lan's boyfriend (one of them?). ）

All this day, Qiu Xuan went to class as usual, and after enduring a whole morning and lunch break, the dean finally calmed down his anger a little. Seeing that it was almost over, Mediterranean hurriedly came out to play a round.

Under the strong guarantee of the Mediterranean, Qiu Xuan won himself a 2,000-word review and a demerit penalty.

"Okay, okay, let's get the kids back to class." Mediterranean patted the dean who was still in the fire, "She's always been a good child, maybe there was something urgent yesterday!" You see, she promised not to do it again next time! ”

Qiu Xuan: That's right.

Then he jumped up and climbed out of the low wall at the other end of the school.

"Suddenly find me something, didn't you negotiate the conditions, I found that you are crooked." Towards the afternoon, after the noon rush hour, there were fewer people. At a barbecue stall with a decent location, Sister Lan bit the cap of the bottle with her teeth and drank it directly to her mouth. "Do you want to?"

"Nope." After barely eating half full, Qiu Xuan wiped her mouth and cut to the point. "Isn't there a guy in your gang who has a head and a tattoo on his arm? Do you know where he went yesterday? ”

"Oh, you said Dongzi, what's wrong with you, you have a crush on him? Hey I said do you know he's me...... Well, forget it, if you really like it, you can give it to you, just make a friend. ”

Qiu Xuan...... Qiu Xuan doesn't know too much about the love methods of these bad leaders.

"I'm not talking about this, it's just, how to say it, alas, I had a dream last night that he died!"

"Huh? Are you kidding me? ”

"No, just do me a favor, okay. It's a big deal, I'll treat you to this meal. Qiu Xuan said, "You ask your little brothers to think about where he went yesterday." ”

Sister Lan still looked at her with that indescribable gaze, and finally lost in the latter's insistent expression. "Okay, okay, I can't see that you're quite ...... Ancient superstitions, just help you check, wait. ”

The weather had started to get cooler, and the girl, still in her sexy suit, started talking on the phone with her feet crossed. And after receiving it, her expression began to be solemn.

Hanging up the last phone, Sister Lan turned her head to look at Qiu Xuan, her eyes heavy.

"Dongzi is dead." She said, "I opened a scoop at the mouth of the West Alley, and the body was not found until this morning, and the brain was drained." ”

Really. Qiu Xuan stared down at the skewers on the table, seriously suspecting that this was a warning.

Maybe it's a thousand eyes, or a ghost in a red dress. Any one of them must have been aware of her plan and would have chosen one of the group to make an example of her. It's just that why is it a tattooed man, and not Sister Lan, who will obviously have a better effect?

"I ...... I suddenly remembered that something happened last night. Sister Lan said with a solemn expression: "I walked alone in the alley after drinking at night, and suddenly I saw a black shadow standing there at the entrance of the alley, obviously holding a knife. Because I was a little drunk, I watched him come towards me in a daze, and then the patrolman's searchlight came on, and the man fled. Originally, I didn't take it seriously, but suddenly I remembered that you said that it would be the same person as the murderer of Dongzi? ”

"Possibly."

Qiu Xuan took a sip of coconut water, looked at her and said, "Do you remember the content of our transaction, this matter involves a lot of complicated things, but I have a hunch that people will continue to die by various 'accidents' in the future." ”

"You mean you're hurting us?!"

"No," Qiu Xuan said, "I'm saving you." ”

……

Six days later, because I don't know who insisted, Qin Xiao and Qiu Xuan's eighteenth birthdays were still put at home. It happened to be the weekend, and Ah Lian and the kitchen were busy early in the morning, and the white smoke that rose never stopped.

It's a pity, it's a pity.

Qiu Xuan slept until she woke up naturally, got up from the bed, took a breath of the aroma of food spreading from the kitchen, and thought that she must eat her full before the mess began.

"Qiu Xuan, happy birthday." Du Ruo sat on the sofa, holding Qin Xiao, who didn't want to go home because he was forced to come back, and said to her with a rare face.

"Yo," Qiu Xuan walked to the table and sat down, pouring herself a cup of soy milk. "I remember that someone was righteously saying that he was going to break off the relationship, how could he come back for his birthday, wouldn't it be better to go out."

There was a muffled bang, and the old lady also sat at the dining table and glanced at Qiu Xuan with a warning look.

"My grandson, am I wrong for asking him to come back for his birthday? You don't sow discord here. ”

She looks quite energetic, as if her children and grandchildren have returned, and this family is complete for her. That's right, speaking of which, there is also Qin Nanxun who is not a human being.

It seems that since he was released on bail, he has been pretending to change his ways. I don't come to touch Qiu Xuan's door at night, and I no longer have a weird yin and yang between my words, and I water flowers and grass every day after I stop school at home, and I seem to be living an old age life in advance.

Qiu Xuan was noncommittal about this series of changes, and still wanted Yan Hui to pack him up directly to the prison every time he saw Qin Nanxun at the Qin family, never to be released. But the world is so cold, and in this matter, she can only wait for Jiang Yu's "belated justice".

"Woke up pretty early." After drinking a cup of soy milk, the slender knuckles over there naturally added another cup to it. Qin Jiuyuan walked around the chair and sat down beside her, and didn't care about the main and secondary seats according to the rules, only smiled: "Happy birthday." ”

Although this day was not Qiu Xuan's real birthday, she still smiled. "Thank you."

"Let's go to sleep for a while after breakfast," Qin Jiuyuan said, "It should be quite late tonight." ”

In the room, Qiu Xuan sent out a message. She sat on the bed, looked at Qin Xiao's puppet whose face was covered by the strange rune paper, and suddenly smiled.

At around four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Xiao suddenly received a text message, and then walked out quickly. When he returned, he was followed by about a dozen young people, dressed in ordinary and healthy baseball shirts, and they looked like a group of healthy and motivated young people.

If it weren't for the fact that the person leading the team was Sister Lan, Qiu Xuan would have really believed it.

"It's kind of like that." She sat on the couch and handed the girl a goblet, and replied to the latter's question, "What kind of wine is this?" ”

The girl who covered all the tattoos with a special concealer showed a vomiting expression when she heard this. "How dare you? Do you know how many years I haven't drunk milk, and tm with mint......"

"Okay, it's going to be done."

"Humph!"

It's just that Wu Hengyu hasn't come yet?

It was 6 p.m., which coincided with the time of attendance on the invitation letter that was sent. Wu Hengyu is not an unpunctual person, unless there is something really delayed on the road.

Qiu Xuan also saw a few familiar figures in the crowd that came to participate, all of which were friends Qin Xiao had made at school or during that time away from home. She couldn't see the future direction of these people clearly, so she had to sigh twice for them sadly.

She also saw Shen Jingxue, the man who was still dressed in fancy clothes was talking to Qin Jiuyuan with a wine glass, and noticed her gaze and smiled and walked towards this side.

"Hello, little sister, see you again."

Qiu Xuan: "Give me a reason not to do anything to you." ”

"Well, that's the reason......" He specially dragged the long tone to buy a pass, and then lifted the thing in his hand to her. Look! Didn't you say before that the original jade pendant sometimes didn't work, but in fact, because its 'potential' was almost exhausted. You know, this kind of thing can't be permanent, otherwise it's too cheating, isn't it? ”

"But it's a good thing, better than the quality I gave you before!"

Qiu Xuan silently took the piece of green jade that looked like a kappa that had been run over at the scene of a car accident, thinking to herself how could there be a jade carved like this.

"The second generation of solar rechargeable!" Shen Jingxue mysteriously lowered her voice, "On the basis of the original hidden 'living anger', the charging function has been added, that is to say, as long as there is a place where the sun exists, it can be charged and used anytime and anywhere, and there is no need to worry about running out of potential energy!" Isn't it great! ”

"Shen Jingxue, in fact, I wanted to say it from the beginning."

"What?"

"Are you the blind man under the bridge cave who tells fortunes during the day and jumps at night?"
