Chapter 9: Tracking
There is a small clinic opposite the hospital, and the light dust has a tube of ointment in it, fifteen yuan, isn't it more than a few hundred yuan in the hospital?
After wiping some medicine in the mirror, her hands were already red from cold, and she stood in place for a while, she put away the ointment and prepared to drive her own car.
When she turned on her phone, she saw that it was already ten o'clock, and it would take at least half an hour to walk to the parking place, so after thinking about it, she still decided to take a taxi.
There are not many pedestrians on the road, she is holding her mobile phone to tinker with taxi software, and she hears from a distance that it seems that someone is calling her, and when she looks up, it is Assistant Zhou of the computer company.
"Miss Lin." He hurried over, the snow on the ground had not yet melted, and she was afraid that he would fall.
"Mr. Zhou, why are you here?"
Because he was in a hurry, he was a little gasped, "I just saw you in the hospital, I thought I recognized the wrong person, and I chased it out and found that it was really you, are you injured?" Why are you still in the hospital so late. ”
Qingchen was unforgiving, and covered his forehead unnaturally, "Little things, don't worry." ”
"How did you hit it?"
"Hit the steering wheel."
Zhou Liang wanted to pull her hand away and look at it, as if he thought of something, he put down his hand again, hanging down on both sides of the seam of his pants, "Miss Lin, go and have a look again, okay?" ”
The tone was pleading, which made Qingchen a little surprised.
"Assistant Zhou, no, I've already bought medicine." She took out the ointment she had bought in the small clinic from her pocket and showed it to Zhou Liang.
Zhou Liang was a little anxious, "Miss Lin, can you go and see Cheng again?" ”
The mobile phone showed that the car had arrived, and she said goodbye to Zhou Liang in a panic.
"Assistant Zhou, I'll go first, thank you for your kindness."
The white car stopped on the side of the road, Qingchen pulled the car door up, opened the window and waved at Zhou Liang, the street lamp hit her face, the beauty was incredible.
The car was still parked in place, and the family of three did not follow, so Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief and drove the car home.
It's eleven o'clock when I get home, and there is basically no one in the community, but fortunately, the lights in the corridor are good, which alleviates the fear of light dust, and I climb the stairs a little tired, and when I get to my floor, there is a cardboard box at her door.
Qingchen stepped forward and kicked it, but there was no movement, she opened the gap in the box and looked at it, it was full of eggs, and she looked around and didn't find anyone left, out of caution, she moved the box to the corner and left it untouched, and opened the door herself and entered the house.
The next day, Qingchen slept until noon and got up, hastily solved her supper, she went out to buy the things she needed for the New Year Although she celebrates the New Year alone, she also needs a sense of ritual, and she should have the same.
After wandering around, buying some couplets, stickers, and window grilles, she went home.
When she first arrived at the floor where she lived, there was a bag hanging on the doorknob of her own house, and she looked through the bag, it was all abrasion ointment, and then looked at the corner, the box of eggs was gone, replaced by some quick-frozen dumplings.
A chill rose from the soles of her feet, and she threw the ointment and quick-frozen dumplings together, and entered the house in a panic.
She pulled up the curtains, sat on the bed and thought for a while about whether she had offended anyone recently, there is no monitoring in the corridor of the community, and the monitoring downstairs is in disrepair all year round, and it is impossible to see the monitoring.
The person knew he was injured and gave him what he liked to eat, either from someone he knew well with or from someone who was following him.
The person who knew that he was injured, except for the family of three, was the only assistant Zhou, but if it was him, how would he know where his home was?
In a flash of light, she seemed to think of something, and immediately dialed Zhang Yi's phone.
"What's the light dust..."
"What does Duan Yi do in Tong City?"
"Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"What company?" She asked anxiously and quickly.
"I heard that it's going to be environmentally friendly."
After hearing the answer, her hanging heart relaxed, and at the same time unconsciously clenched her hands.
"Chapter 1, I have to move."
The strange one asked her, "Why do you want to move if you live well?" But I also think you should move to a better house, your neighborhood is too broken, and there is no surveillance. ”
"I may have been stalked."
"Where do you want to move? Is it a little closer to your store or how... What did you say?! Zhang, who was still babbling, screamed all of a sudden.
"Who's stalking you?"
"I don't know."
She told the ins and outs of the matter,
"I don't think it's such a coincidence, someone must be following me, and this person may know me well."
Zhang Yi seemed to have walked from indoors to outdoors, and the other end of the phone was much quieter.
"Do you suspect that Duan Yi is following you?"
Qingchen didn't respond, he just had that thought, and after hearing the answer, he didn't doubt Duan Yi anymore.
"Qingchen, otherwise you would come back to live with us these days, right?" Zhang persuaded her at first.
"No, I'll try to be as careful as possible these days, and I'll move when I find a suitable place to live in the next year."
Zhang Yi just got married, even if he and Qingchen are close again, but such a close relationship between men and women who are not related by blood will make others gossip, even if Zhang Yi's daughter-in-law is reasonable, they are both women, and Qingchen also understands that it is not pleasant.
Zhang Yi sighed, "You pay more attention these days, and call me immediately if you have something." ”
Light dust should be.
Zhang Yi hung up the phone, turned around and glanced at his wife in the house, and the little daughter-in-law smiled at him.
"I'll call again." He said.
The daughter-in-law nodded obediently, lowered her head and continued to knit the scarf in her hand.
Qingchen didn't dare to go out at night, there was nothing to eat in the refrigerator, she ordered a takeout, the takeaway brother knocked on the door, she also cautiously let people put it outside, and only went out to get takeout after a few minutes.
Halfway through the takeout, there was a rustling sound outside the door, similar to the sound of a plastic bag, and he hurriedly put down his chopsticks, took out the mop from the bathroom, and quietly walked to the door step by step.
When she walked to the door, there was no sound, she also held her breath and listened carefully, suddenly there was a man's cough, the mop in her hand gradually tightened, she bent down to look outside through the cat's eye, her eyes just arrived at the cat's eye, the knock on the door suddenly sounded, Qingchen was startled, and the mop slammed on the door.
The knocking on the door stopped,
"Qingchen, what are you doing?"
It's a translation.
All of a sudden, Qingchen's eyes were wet, and she put down the mop to open the door, "What are you doing here?" ”
Duan Yi was carrying several bags in his hand, and a few tomatoes could be seen in one of the bags.
"Zhang Yi called me at noon, and you were followed?"
Qingchen picked up the door frame and looked at the corner of the wall, Duan Yi followed her line of sight, it was empty, there was nothing.
"What's wrong?"
Qingchen shook his head with red eyes, "You come in." ”
Duan Yi put the things into the kitchen with ease, and Qingchen continued to eat takeout.
"Cool, isn't it? I'll make you something to eat again. ”
"No, why did Zhang Yi call you." She asked, stirring the noodles in the fast-food box.
"He heard that you were being followed, and he was in a hurry, and you refused to go back, so he asked me to come and see you."
"Oh."
"Do you want to call the police?"
Qingchen gave him a strange look, "I don't know who is following me, what's the use of calling the police?" Maybe people still think I'm obstructing official business. ”
Duan Yi didn't speak, watching her stir the noodles in the bowl vigorously,
"I can't find a suitable house for a while, otherwise you will go to the hotel?"
Qingchen shook her head quickly, purely because she was distressed and reluctant to live in the hotel, and she had lived here for several years, and she also had feelings, and it was sad to go to the hotel to live alone during the Chinese New Year.
"And what do you think?"
Qingchen put down his chopsticks, "He seems to be just sending me something, and it hasn't risen to a personal threat for the time being, and I'll immediately look for a new house after the New Year here." ”
"How do you know that the person who is following you won't do anything threatening to you? Lin Qingchen, you are a woman, if something really happens, what will you do? What can you do alone? ”
His tone was a little bad, frowning, which was Qingchen's least favorite look.
Qingchen stared at him with red eyes, "What should I do for you?" Who are you? Why did you come to my house to murder me? What's wrong with me, even if I die, it has nothing to do with your Duan Yi! ”
As soon as the words fell, the tears were brushed and left, she hurriedly looked for tissues, tears blurred her vision, and the face on the table was accidentally knocked over, and she dropped a pair of pants.
This time the crying is even more fierce.
She scolded herself in her heart, Lin Qingchen, you are really useless.
A white hand suddenly stretched out in front of her, and Duan Yi took the paper to wipe the dirt on her pants.
"Don't cry, I shouldn't have killed you, I'm just afraid that something will happen to you."
Qingchen was still sobbing and choking, but he didn't cry as fiercely as he just now, and he reacted and knew that he was ashamed, so he took the paper and wiped it.
"I'm sorry." She apologized.
"It's fine."
He understands her, understands her fear, understands that no one can share this fear, so he can ignore her duplicity and unscrupulous words.
"Are you scared?"
Qingchen nodded,
"Why don't you stay in a hotel?"
She was silent for a while, and replied a little embarrassed, "I don't want to spend so much money." ”
This answer was something that Duan Yi didn't expect,
He laughed angrily, "Is money more important or people more important?" ”
She muttered, "It's not your money, of course you don't feel distressed." ”
"Can I go to the hotel after the Chinese New Year?" She still understands the truth, and she can't joke with life.
Duan Yi pondered, the day after tomorrow Chinese New Year's Eve, "After Chinese New Year's Eve, I will go to the hotel, I don't go to the hotel, I happen to have a vacant room, free to stay." ”
Qingchen wiped his pants for a moment, stared at him with wide eyes, and quickly shook his head, "I'd rather go to a hotel." ”
"Why? Afraid you won't be able to hold it? He teased her.
"No, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out if I get into the tiger's den, you're more terrible than a stalker."
When she said this, her expression was extremely serious, and Duan Yi felt a little heartbroken.
"I'm just so scared of you?"
