It wasn't until the evening that she found that the peach hairpin was missing, and after searching the house to no avail, she hurried out of the door, activated the experimental luminous lighting of the warning floating screen, and touched her shore for a while, but to no avail.

The bamboo forest on the left is silent, and the occasional wisp of night wind blows, making the sound of brushing leaves. The lights in the living room on the ground floor of the three-person villa opposite were turned off, and only two of the three bedrooms in a row on the second floor were lit up.

Scarlet stared at the river. The experimental nightlight illuminated the surface of the river green, and the anemone leaves lay motionless on the surface of the river, and she couldn't help but shudder when she thought of the black snake, and prayed in her heart that it would not fall to the bottom of the river.

Before deciding on a course of action, she must first determine the whereabouts of the peach hairpin.

"Shang Tan'an, I want to ask you something." Scarlet was not surprised to see the other party's astonishment on the projection screen, this time point is indeed not suitable for two unfamiliar people to chat on video.

Shang Tan'an came back to his senses quickly and replied politely: "Classmate Yan, please speak." ”

"Have you seen my peach hairpin?"

"Peach hairpin?" Shang Tan'an repeated puzzled.

"Did you notice a wooden hairpin stuck in my head when I was doing the experiment?"

Shang Tan'an pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "When you were doing the experiment, I was far away and didn't notice, but your hair should be coiled, and then in the water, I didn't pay much attention to it, but after you went ashore, your hair was scattered, and there was nothing." ”

"Are you sure?" Scarlet asked again, this is really the worst outcome, according to Shang Tan'an's statement, her peach hairpin must have fallen into the water.

"Well, your hair was hanging down when we were talking on the shore," Shang Tan'an nodded affirmatively, he couldn't help but be relieved when he saw that Scarlet looked very anxious when he saw that his eyebrows were tightly locked, "Maybe it's still on the shore, you look for it on the shore." ”

"I'm looking, thank you, excuse me."

Scarlet cut off the video and lowered her head to search carefully, but she was not very hopeful.

Shang Tan'an actually had the same idea as Scarlet, Miss Yan's peach hairpin was afraid that it would fall to the bottom of the river, he sighed lightly, this Miss Yan had a cold face, and she was extremely arrogant when she spoke, and her face was anxious when she asked about the peach hairpin, and her voice was also gentle, and she spoke with rare politeness, maybe the peach hairpin was very important to her.

He thought about the water snake in the river and didn't know if he had dealt with it, Miss Yan was scared like this today, she must not dare to dive into the river, since this matter was bumped into by him, he should not let a girl go down to the river to fish by herself.

Five minutes later, Shang Tan'an dialed the video: "Classmate Yan, are you still looking for it?" ”

"Hmm." Scarlet nodded, she looked at Shang Tan'an suspiciously, maybe he remembered some details.

Shang Tan'an looked at the leaves on the hanging strips of the silk willow behind him, the leaves were bright and white, but it was pitch black after that, he looked at the time and persuaded: "Classmate Yan, let's look for it tomorrow, if it falls on the shore, it doesn't matter if it stays overnight." ”

Scarlet was slightly disappointed: "I know, thank you." ”

"What about the water snake?" Shang Tan'an thought about it, and still brought it up to ask, but she was afraid of causing her discomfort for no reason, so her tone was very sincere and gentle, "Have you notified the dormitory office?" ”

"Yes. In the afternoon, the security robot came to probe, but there was no more. ”

"That's good." Shang Tan'an saw that Scarlet didn't show his face, and said in a good voice, "Classmate Yan, if you can't find it on the shore tomorrow, you tell me, I can take a time to help you go down to the river in the afternoon." ”

Scarlet was obviously stunned, looked at Shang Tan'an, and bowed slightly for a while: "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome, I have a class in the morning, you can give me a video at noon."

The scarlet is clear from wrong, she left this peach hairpin has little to do with Shang Tan'an, the main reason is that she can't stabilize herself, although she was angry and blamed him for not bringing people here, but the researcher of the simulated experiment has never been able to care about things outside the experimental area, and must have a certain psychological quality of anti-interference, her quality is not too hard, and she has not passed, so she fell into the river.

She thought that Shang Tan'an was not bad, but she didn't really want to trouble him.

The next day, Scarlet got up early in the morning and searched the lawn on the shore again, completely dead. She went back to her room to change the water, and stood by the water's edge with a numb scalp.

The security robot did not detect the water snake in this section of the river, nor did it detect the snake burrow on the shore wall. It shows that it makes holes elsewhere, and it can swim to and fro, and of course it can swim back.

To be down or not to be down?

She has no choice, the peach hairpin must be found, and this set of friendly sponsored retro costumes needs to be returned to the ancient culture experience center.

Besides, while the anemone was still messy at this time, she didn't worry about it when she went to the bottom of the water for a while, and after a few days the anemone returned to its original state, and it would be even more difficult to search.

"It's not poisonous, it's ugly."

"It's not its fault that it's ugly, and in its world, maybe it's still good."

"It's because they are of different species and don't know how to appreciate each other's beauty."

Scarlet comforted herself in a mess, until at last she realized that she couldn't think about it anymore, and the more she did this, the more she couldn't jump.

Taking a deep breath, Scarlet stabbed down with a fierce slam. The river was clear, full of anemone stems and leaves, and she looked around underneath, and at the interval, she floated up to breathe.

The peach hairpin is dark brown and falls to the bottom of the river with the silt, which is not easy to distinguish.

Scarlet was ventilated more than ten times in a row, and she was on high alert all the time, and gradually became a little unable to hold on. She searched every inch near the water point yesterday, but there was no trace of the peach hairpin, and this area was gradually cloudy when she touched it.

Scarlet had no choice but to get out of the water, leaning against the trunk of the silk willow and panting for breath.

Last night she had nightmares, dreaming that her whole body was bound and she couldn't move, and the black snake came up around her neck. When I woke up at that moment, I was dripping with cold sweat, and then I almost didn't dare to sleep, and I sat on the bed until dawn with my eyes closed. At this moment, the wind and the sun are beautiful, the breeze is blowing, the surroundings are so bright, the scarlet is tired and tired and can't help relaxing, originally just wanted to close his eyes for a while, and he didn't know anymore after falling asleep.

It's sweet.

Shang Tan'an had a good class, and went to the restaurant on the second floor of the Guibu with Qi Wei to eat, remembering that the progress of the peach hairpin of their neighbor on the other side of the river was still unknown. After the meal, everyone went back to their respective studios, but he still hadn't received the video message, thinking that she might have found it successfully, so he took the initiative to dial over to confirm. After a long time, the video was picked up.

"Classmate Yan, have you found your peach hairpin?"

"Not yet, I'm looking." Scarlet shook her head. She had just woken up in a trance, and she was weak to speak.

In the projection screen, two or three thin willow sticks fluttered lightly on her head, and Miss Yan, who was indifferent and cold in the past, leaned against the trunk of the tree, as if she was not in good spirits, but she seemed much more peaceful.

"I'll come over now and help you see it." Shang Tanan said.

"No, I can do it myself." Scarlet regained her aura in a few words, and refused quite simply. She is not used to owing favors, not to mention that she is even more afraid that Shang Tanan will further damage the anemone.

Shang Tan'an looked at Scarlet Eyes, Miss Yan was strong and assertive, he had already understood it deeply, and at this time, he thought that if she really didn't like people to help, he would go with her. didn't have time to make any other suggestions, but only heard Scarlet said: "Thank you, that's all, goodbye." ”

The portrait of the projection screen faded away.

Shang Tan'an shook his head slightly and picked up the work on the case.
