Chapter 37: A Chance Encounter in the Grove
I drove up to the sixth floor, and in the hallway I climbed the improvised staircase. But his uncle, I don't know why the steel lid is actually locked. I pushed it for a long time and couldn't push it away.
Then I figured it out, and it was probably caused by the jumping incident at noon. Not to mention now, even if you want to go up in the future, it is estimated that it is impossible.
This makes it difficult for me to go up the sky, where will I carry out secret activities in the future?
I thought back to the whole layout of the school in my mind, are there any more hidden places? By the way, it suddenly occurred to me that if I wanted to talk about secrecy, wouldn't the grove be quite secluded now?
Since the last time the dead fat man of the teaching director was in a coma in the woods, it seems that no one will go there in the middle of the night.
It's a great location.
So I went downstairs with my bag and walked through the playground to the grove.
In the past, I would never have dared to approach there, but now it's different. I know better than anyone what is going on there.
Originally, the small pavilion was more convenient for my activities, but there was nothing around to obstruct it, and it would be difficult to say if I was accidentally seen. So I walked around the fence and finally found a corner.
It was shaded by trees on all sides, and surrounded by half-human-tall weeds. If you're careful, you're never going to be able to find out. The most important thing is that there are also a few cement bricks scattered there, which is just perfect.
I stacked a few cement bricks on top of each other, then took out the potatoes and put them on the table and put them in for incense.
I felt that it was too dark around me, and it was impossible to draw symbols like this, so I took out my newly bought phone and pressed the screen on, and chose the one that never goes out.
Speaking of my mobile phone, my grandfather paid for it for me, and it cost more than 300 oceans. Last time, the place where I hid the phone was not rainproof, but it was a coincidence that it rained in the days when I was hospitalized, so it was sacrificed.
However, it also responds to the phrase "the old does not go, the new does not come". My grandfather, who never used a mobile phone, bought one for himself after that to make it easier to contact me. And then by the way, I also bought one.
The one he bought was a relatively old model, and it didn't even have a game like Tetris except for being able to make and receive calls.
My one is different, the slider is a relatively new one. I can't remember which brand it was, but it was a time when all kinds of mobile phones were blooming. Most of the brands are English letters, and I know them all when I take them apart, so I can't do anything about them together.
But when it comes to the function, it's really good, except for the chat software QQ. There is also a browser to surf the Internet. Although this browser often has convulsions, there is no response from time to time, and it always restarts automatically. But it's a novelty for me.
This represents my official successful transition from the TXT era to the BMP era. I remember that after they saw it, they used Bluetooth to ask me to send them the installation file of the browser. It's just that in addition to being obscene, the other people's phones can't be opened after installation. So since then, the path of obscenity as a boy has gone further and further in the direction of men.
Continued above.
When I turned on my phone, I finally felt that the light around me was sufficient. So, as usual, I took out all kinds of things and started preparing. After a while, I took a deep breath and began to draw talismans.
With the pen in hand, I began to recite the mantra.
The sky is round
Chapter 9 of the Law
I'm going to write now
Ten thousand ghosts are hidden
I am ...... by the edict of the ancestors of the Three Qing Daoists.
"Who? ……。 Suddenly, there was a voice in the woods. My hand shook violently, and the brush fell on the cement brick with a click.
"Who's there? ……。 ”
There was another sound in the grove, accompanied by rustling footsteps.
I secretly complained in my heart, who from your uncle came here in the middle of the night?
I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly opened the bag, stuffed the neatly arranged things into it, and found a place to hide it in place. Then he pretended to be calm and walked out with his mobile phone.
The man noticed the movement on my side, and stopped as if he was a little scared. Holding up a cell phone like me, trying to see what I look like.
I thought to myself, why did your uncle have the audacity to go so early? Isn't it good to go back to the bed to sleep?
But when I saw the person's appearance clearly, I was a little stunned, and at the same time secretly retracted what I had just said in my heart.
What I didn't expect was that person was actually Xie Min. She was also a little stunned when she saw me, looked at me in surprise, and asked, "Why are you?" Is there something wrong with you coming here so late? ”
I smiled and said, "Ahem...... So what, I'll look at the moon ...... tonight. As I spoke, I glanced up at the sky. His uncle's darkness was pitch black, and he didn't even have a single hair, so he couldn't say any more in the middle of his words.
"Are you also coming out to relax because you can't sleep?" Xie Min saw that I didn't speak for a long time, so he asked again.
This question was on my mind, so I hurriedly nodded and said, "Mmmm, yes, yes......." ”
But coincidentally, when I think of sleeping, it may be because of the hint in my heart. As soon as I finished answering Xie Min's words, I let out a long yawn.
This was embarrassing enough, but fortunately it was the middle of the night, and there was no strong light, so Xie Min didn't see my face blushing like a monkey's ass.
……。
The love of juvenile mentality seems to be still at the stage where you sneak a glance at me and I sneak a glance at you. I don't know if that's the case for everyone, but I don't have a doubt.
So in the silent woods, there were only Xie Min and I sitting in the small pavilion. We are again in a situation where we have nothing to say.
As Belly said, if I'm gay, I'm just the one who "suffers", because I'm not an introvert like a gentleman.
It was Xie Min who took the initiative to open her mouth first, and she asked me, don't you have anything to say to her?
I was silent for a moment, and finally made up my mind, plucked up the courage to look directly at her for the first time, and said, "I'm sorry, but I didn't have any other ...... that day. And I'm actually ....... ”
"I believe in you."
She interrupted me out of the blue, saying something that stunned me.
I didn't expect everything to happen so smoothly, so smoothly that I couldn't believe it. But it made me feel like I went with the flow.
She stood up, looked at me with a smile and said, "Chu Li, I believe in you." I've believed in you since you appeared here. In fact, I've been thinking a lot about it these days, and a situation like mine, maybe it's just that I don't want to accept it, as everyone says. It's that I don't dare to face myself, and I don't dare to hear a little bad about me from others. ”
"After that day, I didn't dare to sleep every night. I was afraid that I would sleepwalk again when I fell asleep. Do you know? I was afraid of the strange eyes of the people around me, and I was afraid that I was really sick. Become a psychopath in the mouth of others. ”
"Whew......."
Xie Min let out a sigh of relief and said with a relaxed smile: "But now that I've figured it out, I can't change the established facts, but I can choose how to live." Live to make yourself easy and make yourself comfortable. ”
"So you don't have to say sorry to me, speaking of which, these three words should be right for me to say to you."
After saying that, she suddenly asked me, "Tonight, you came with me, right?" ”
I finally understood why Xie Min interrupted me, and why she was talking to me so much.
I looked at her with a relaxed smile and told a lie that didn't seem to me to be a lie. He nodded and did not speak.
When she received my affirmative reply, she lowered her head. I think if I could see her face at this point, her face would be a little red.
The relationship between me and her seems to be more and more beyond the scope of friendship or classmatery, but we have not pierced the last layer of window paper, nor have we ever pierced the idea.
……。
From the very beginning when I saw Xie Min, I actually wanted to tell her my secret.
Speaking of which, Xie Min's mentality is somewhat similar to mine. It's just that her affairs don't seem like much compared to the despair that I won't live to be twenty.
I don't know why, but I'd love to talk to her about it at this point. Maybe it's because I didn't see it thoroughly. The closer I am, the more I can't show it, but when I meet someone I feel worthy of trust, I want to complain to her.
But on second thought, what are you doing with her? Maybe I'm feeling better, but what would she think? She may feel sorry for me, or she may put both of us in an awkward position because she can't find words to comfort me.
More likely, she won't believe my unscientific claims at all. In the end, I have to explain all this with all my secrets.
So I looked at her, sighed, and only one sentence remained on my lips: "Congratulations, I envy you for having such a good attitude." You're right, we can't control what other people think, just be yourself...... ”
She nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know why, after telling you this, the last bit of worry in my heart is gone." By the way, aren't you bad at English? Mine is okay, I'll teach you if you don't understand in the future. Well, it's late, go back. You should go back early, too. ”
After saying that, Xie Min turned around and walked out. I sat in the small pavilion, feeling a little indignant at her modesty and pleasantly surprised. Does this mean that in the days to come, I can get close to her justifiably?
It seems like yes.
……。
After Xie Min left, I sat in place and was stunned for a while. Then I suddenly remembered why I was here. Glancing at the time, it was already half past twelve.
So I got up and walked back to the corner from before. Anyway, you can't afford to get down to business.
But just as I turned around, I suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at me behind me.
I subconsciously turned around, took out the eye-opening charm in my pocket, and said in a deep voice: "Who?" ”
As my voice fell, there was a noise behind me from behind a tree. Suddenly, a dark shadow sprang out and ran straight out of the woods.
Is that heresy? ……。 The thought crossed my mind, and I chased after it.
But when I ran there, there was nothing there. I looked around, but unfortunately the night was so dark that I couldn't see anything. There was silence all around, as if nothing was different.
Is it because you are too nervous? I walked back in confusion.
It seems unlikely that person is right, but that feeling makes me feel wrong.
If that's the person, why is he here so late? Does he want to plant some evil formation here?
