Chapter 709: Nursery Rhymes
Jiang Futing figured it out from the first time he saw her, and judging from her current performance, there is a high probability that she encountered the same problem as Chen Yihuan at that time.
He sniffed the fragrance of tea, which was not so inferior, so he took a sip and moistened his throat.
Unlike the previous coldness at school, he spoke softly: "I didn't expect it to be you." β
Even the way of speaking was different from the feeling of indifference at school, Gao Xue raised her head slightly upwards with some surprise, looking at the person in front of her.
Jiang Futing sat upright, looking decent and elegant, and his temperament was indeed not as repulsive as when he was in school, but he had another indescribable sense of distance.
If you have to find a word, it's like a very good and perfect staff, whether it is speech or behavior, it is stuck in the best line of proportion.
He will make you feel comfortable, comfortable, and have a sense of belonging, so that people can entrust themselves wholeheartedly to him, so as to enhance the trust in the transaction and promote the completion of the order more efficiently.
And this is also one aspect of Jiang Futing's rapid growth from countless lists in the past year.
But if you want to go beyond the employment relationship and break through something in the relationship between the two, it will only be a stone sink and nothing will be gained.
Gao Xue bowed her head with some scruples in Jiang Futing's exploratory eyes.
He noticed Gao Xue's restless restraint, and patiently guided: "You can relax, collect money and money to eliminate disasters for others." That's my job. If there's anything you want to say, take your time, we have an afternoon. β
An afternoon is neither short nor long.
The two sides just stumbled and chatted a few words, and the sun, which had been hiding in the dark clouds for a whole day, finally gave up the sunshine for dozens of minutes to the earth, and then hid back in the dark clouds like a girl who saw her lover.
In short, Yang Linsheng, who came to hug his thighs, rested enough, filled his stomach with hard desserts and tea, and ran to the toilet twice halfway.
Gao Xue was finally willing to open his golden mouth, no longer detoured, and came to the 1510 tunnel.
Her slender fingers hung on the frosted cup, and every time she moved, the bone joints on the back of her hand were like thin bamboo poles, crawling on her hands, and the thinness was shocking.
Her empty eyes were soaked with cloudy and complex emotions, and the fear was finally suppressed, and the unspeakable guilt and pain began to haunt her heart again.
She opened her mouth tiredly, as long as she took a breath and said a word, it seemed that she was going to mobilize the strength of her whole body: "In fact, half a month before Chen Yihuan's disappearance, she mentioned something to me. β
The tragic past, the moment she made her voice, was once again bloody in front of her eyes.
She closed her eyes with difficulty, "As long as it is night, she always says that someone is following her, someone is trying to harm her, and she also says...... There was always a voice that said strange things and asked her strange things when she was alone. β
"But I don't believe her!" she
As soon as I said this, I hated it!
She hated her stupidity, she hated her sluggishness, she hated that she was her friend but didn't even have the trust she deserved.
Even if she doesn't believe it, if she is more careful, will Chen Yihuan not lose it? Will you be able to escape this?
Jiang Futing rarely made tea by himself, he enjoyed the elegant fragrance and made a cup for Gao Xue:
"You are just an ordinary person and a victim, don't add a needless burden to yourself. Even if you understood at the time, what do you think you can do? And how to save her? β
"If you take the liberty of telling the people around you, how many do you think will believe you? Won't they take you for madness? β
Gao Xue was speechless for a while, she sat there, her mind was like a smorgasbord of stew, and her eyes were a little distracted.
Yang Linsheng really had enough dessert on the side, took a sip of tea, and planned to take a round of nonsense to relieve himself, and interjected:
"So! It is that people have their own lives, and there is no need to encounter anything, so they will be rigid on themselves, which is the panic of idlers. As long as you have a clear conscience yourself! β
Probably because he followed Jiang Futing and participated in a lot of various types of symposiums, he suddenly drew a gourd nonsense, and he really had a decent outline.
And Jiang Futing rarely heard him speak seriously, and he didn't talk about him indiscriminately, so he pulled the topic back casually:
"So, can you tell us about yourself?"
Gao Xue's position was close to the window, and she tried to calm her mood, slowly raising her pale cheeks in the gloom shrouded in dark clouds.
She spoke slowly: "The thing that tracked Chen Yihuan before has started to follow me." β
The lifeless eyes began to tremble with the voice: "On the fifth day after her disappearance, I thought at first that it was because of Yi Huan's disappearance, which caused me to be nervous, self-substitution, and thinking too much. β
"But for days, every night, at first it was just on my way back to the dormitory, but then the thing began to become more and more unscrupulous."
Gao Xue covered her head with her hands, and her bamboo pole-like fingers were deep in her hair, as if she was about to poke her head: "It began to follow my bedroom, and several times later, when I got up in the middle of the night, there would be a dark shadow in front of the window, and I could guess that it was that thing." β
"Later, it would follow me into the bathroom, and when I washed, when I went to the toilet, it would always be behind my back, and it seemed to be hidden in my shadow. The shadow in the back would stand directly at the head of my bed, staring at me all night long! β
Gao Xue's emotions gradually lost control with the terrifying memories that appeared in her mind, and the fear in her eyes swallowed up the only reason she had little by little.
"Just two nights ago!"
She paused abruptly, staring at the teacup on the table in fear and distraction, as if something fearful would crawl out of the cup in front of her.
Jiang Futing followed her line of sight, reached out and moved the cup in front of her, interrupting her distraction: "What about the first two nights."
What's up? β
"Two nights ago......" Gao Xue muttered to herself like a repeater:
"When I was sleeping, the thing suddenly made a sound when it walked, and it slowly came to my ears, and I was so scared that I had to wrap myself in the quilt. It crouched down, put it on my head, and started talking to me. β
Jiang Futing's eyes flashed, and he seemed to have guessed the content half of the content in his heart, looked at her and asked, "What did it say?" β
"It'sβit says." Gao Xue's mouth squirmed with difficulty, as if her lips had been stitched, and she couldn't reveal what was behind.
Jiang Futing had already put his tone very softly, and guided without hurry: "What did you say?" β
But at this moment, Gao Xue seemed to be fixed there, except for desperately pulling his hair and forcibly resisting the fear in his heart, he didn't speak.
She's going to die!
She's going to die!
Yang Linsheng, who was sitting on the side, had a rare brain open, and said coldly: "It can't be the nursery rhyme that circulated, right?" β
Gao Xue seemed to have been relieved of her acupuncture, reflexively bounced her head, and looked up at him in shock and fear.
Yang Linsheng's tail almost reached the sky, and he proudly concluded: "Come on!" That's the nursery rhyme. β
Jiang Futing didn't understand what he had to be proud of such a trivial matter, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him, and continued to ask: "What about after saying that?" β
Gao Xue rubbed her eyebrows in pain, "Of course I don't respond to it, I can only pretend that I am asleep." But it appeared more and more often, and whenever I was alone, it would appear, repeating in my ear, asking me one last question. β
After she finished speaking, she finally brushed off her bangs and looked at them with helpless and desperate eyes, like a little beast that had been rounded up, driven to the end of the road.
"I really feel like I'm going to run out of it, and even if I hadn't died at its hands, I'd have gone crazy! But that thing won't let go, it certainly won't let go! I'm going to die! β
Gao Xue said the back, so excited that she was already a little incoherent.
She was struggling desperately, with all her might. She doesn't want to die so inexplicably, her life is mediocre, there is no merit, she just needs to live normally!
Jiang Futing paused, and did not immediately give her a clear answer.
After leaving the library that day, Chen Yihuan's strong ghost aura made him feel a little more careful, and he had been privately observing the strangeness of the school for the past few days, but he didn't get any results.
The campus can be said to be very clean, except for the occasional breath of lonely ghosts passing by, there is nothing suspicious.
But now it seems that there must be something hidden, but it has a means of being around, so it hides its breath.
The slender fingers knocked twice on the table, and after considering the safety of the employer from all angles, Jiang Futing said: I need to check the school carefully, but the detailed inspection will not be so fast, you don't want to be alone in the past two days, keep someone around you 24 hours a day, and contact me immediately if there is an accident. β
"But...... In case of...... In case of. Gao Xue looked at him hesitantly, as if he wanted to make some request, but he was a little embarrassed to say it.
Jiang Futing knew what she was worried about, so he took out two talismans from his bag and handed them to her: "One is a talisman and one is a requiem, it will be invalid if you use it once, but it can save your life at a critical time." β
Gao Xue was an atheist before he encountered this incident, although the three views had been subverted for several days, but now he saw the two runes pressed on the table - he still hesitated for half a second.
She's already seen how terrible things are with her, but it would be too much to say that these two pieces of yellow paper can save her life.
It was not the first time that Jiang Futing had seen someone like her who wanted to believe it or not, so he said indifferently: "Just take it, it's naturally best if you don't use it." β
But I'm not afraid of 10,000, I have to guard against that in case.
There is only one life, and it can't stand the toss and tests. If you're not careful, you'll burp!
Gao Xue pondered slowly, felt that he was reasonable, and moved slowly like an old lady, she took the rune paper, folded it carefully, and then thanked her.
After Xie Zi finished speaking, the little mouth was still open, and it seemed that he wanted to say something more, but he stuck in his throat for a long time and didn't say anything.
As a result, he was nervous and sweaty, and then picked up the cup again, moistened the gap stuck in his throat, and then asked softly: "It's convenient to ask, how long will it take to catch ......?"
She turned around for a moment when she said the next word, and finally didn't dare to say that word, and became: "Those things?" β
Jiang Futing stared at her restless face and said calmly and forcefully, "I can't give you a time at will, but I will try as soon as possible." β
