It was already past one o'clock in the middle of the night when the trailer came, and Chen Xiu had no choice but to beg him to help pull it to his hotel. It's a pity that the trailer master is not in this city and can't find the way. In the end, he had to settle for the next best thing and sent Chen Xiu to a hotel with a wake-up call.

This guesthouse is a 4 star hotel, near the train station, and unsurprisingly always overcrowded. Chen Xiu was lucky when he came, and there was still a room without a window. Thinking about it, I just made do for a few hours anyway and stayed.

After that, it completely exceeded her expectations, and she booked a wake-up call at six in the morning. Before the time came, someone knocked on the door.

You can't be so dedicated, right? Chen Xiu was a little annoyed, he knew earlier that he would be late, anyway, he could rest a little more if he had time. But when she opened the door, she regretted it.

Maybe it was the sleepy-eyed relationship, Chen Xiu hadn't seen who the person outside the door was, and the cold touch had already made her sober. The tip of the knife was pressed against her neck, and a low, hoarse voice rang out, "Take out all the valuable things you have on you." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll take it, I'll take it."

Chen Xiu was very afraid of death, she spread her hands, indicating that she had no weapons on her, and she had no intention of resisting, and turned to get the bag that was placed next to the pillow.

In fact, I don't have much valuable things on my body, this time I traveled in simple clothes, basically only some documents or something. Because she was worried that the robbers would not be satisfied with the amount of money they had robbed, she decided to run away the moment Chen Xiu touched the anti-wolf spray.

"Ahh The spicy tingling sensation made the kidnappers go berserk, and Chen Xiu took the opportunity to run to the door.

"Click-click-"

It couldn't be opened, and the door was locked.

At this moment, Chen Xiu was a little dizzy, and his brain was quickly calculating, his location was on the second floor, each floor was about three meters high, and there was a height of five meters from here, so he should not fall to death.

But the moment she opened the curtains, she was really dumbfounded, this room, there are no windows.

……

Hearing the police officer's description of the case, her mother was already crying, and Chen Shi had no way to comfort her.

In this time and space, because of his father's death, Chen Xiu has not been close to his mother since a few years ago. Although her mother is as good to her as ever, how can she cover her cold heart?

It's too late to deal with the problem, the whole case is an ordinary burglary, the murderer hasn't been caught yet, and the only biggest problem is those phone calls.

At first, the police thought that the mother was hiding something, but after checking the call records through telecommunications, it was found that the mother had only had a conversation with Xiuxiu for a few seconds or so before that. In Xiuxiu's mobile phone, her mother made several phone calls to her over several days.

Neither side is lying, but how can this happen? The police did not give a clear answer, only suspecting that the phone was malfunctioning.

Before leaving, Chen Shi applied whether he could take his mobile phone away, and the police officer hesitated for a while and agreed.

Although he got the mobile phone, Chen Shi was still secretly thinking in his heart, maybe this mobile phone is a key physical evidence or something, so let the family take it away, and he is not afraid of problems?

Comparing the call records of the two mobile phones, it is indeed as the police said. Chen Shi suddenly felt that everything he had been messing up since he got up in the morning was not quite right. I'm obviously from another time and space, and I have a mission, but what is the mission? Is it a burial Xiuxiu?

For some reason, the self in another time and space is a living sister slave, who responds to Xiuxiu's needs, and it seems that she can't live without her. But here, I am relying on the little bit of family affection that remains to be good to her, and I actually don't have too deep feelings.

"Jingle Bell Bell Ring~"

As soon as I got home, I simply cleaned up and rested on the sofa, I heard the familiar ringtone, Chen Shi and his mother glanced at each other, and his mother looked at the entrance.

Looking at her lazy appearance, Chen Shi took the initiative to get up to get his mobile phone, and the moment he saw the caller ID, he was shocked.

There are two big words written on the screen of her mother's mobile phone: Chen Xiu.

"Who is it?" Mother asked.

“…… Xiuxiu. Chen Shi spit out his sister's name in disbelief, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, and was quiet, as if no one had ever moved.

With a trembling hand, he clicked on the green answer button, turned on the speakerphone, and Xiuxiu's familiar impatient voice came from the other end: "What are you doing?" As soon as you turn on your phone, it's your miss. ”

Mother is very familiar with this sentence, this is the last sentence that Xiuxiu told her before her death. That day was very similar to today, and my mother always had a premonition in her heart that she didn't want to, so she dialed Xiuxiu's phone, but Xiuxiu didn't answer.

After more than an hour, Xiuxiu dialed over and said this sentence with a bad attitude. At that time, her mother felt that as a child, it was too much for her to talk to her elders with such an attitude, so she hung up. Who knows, this last conversation is actually the eternal separation of heaven and man.

“…… Xiuxiu? ”

The mother's eyes widened, trying not to let the tears fall.

"What's the matter, what are you saying, I'm driving!"

Xiuxiu's use of you here does not mean respect for her mother. It's just that she spent four years in college in the capital, and she learned this Beijing accent inexplicably.

"You...... Where to go? ”

The mother was still incredulous, and there was a tremor in her questioning tone.

"Won't I just follow you when I go out in the morning, there is an art exhibition in L City, and the agent has prepared it for me, so I have to go over and have a look tonight." Xiuxiu's attitude is as bad as ever.

At this moment, Chen Shi seemed to understand everything! True, the time was delayed by a whole day.

There was nothing wrong with the timeline of himself and his mother, it was Xiuxiu who postponed it by a day. In this way, there is an explanation for the few phone calls that came from nowhere.

"You...... Don't go, don't you...... Let's take the bus, okay? ”

Maybe her mother didn't understand the situation at all, and at this moment she just wanted to be a relative to stop things that couldn't be stopped.

"Are you crazy? My own art exhibition, I have to lose money if I break the contract. ”

Xiuxiu didn't realize that the people on the phone were almost broken, thinking that she was looking for something to do again.

"What to do...... What should I do......" The mother looked at Chen Shi helplessly with tears in her eyes. Chen Shi is also very helpless, there are many things that his mother can't open her mouth, and she has to talk about it.

"If you drive through a mountain road, and you meet someone on the road who is hitchhiking, you must not pull this person, otherwise something will happen."

Chen Shi feels that everything happens for a reason. Just like Xiuxiu, if she didn't carry this passenger, the car wouldn't necessarily break down. The car does not break down, and it will not run into the fat master who drives the pickup. If you don't run into the fat master, you won't call a tow truck because the car is stuck in the quagmire. If you don't call a tow truck, you won't choose this hotel, you live in a room without windows, and you don't have a chance to jump out of the window when you meet a robber.

"What do you say? ......" Chen Xiu didn't seem to hear clearly, and there was a murmur over there: "It's okay, I'll hang up first, the car broke down." ”
