Chapter Twenty-Five: Shock's Home

"If that's what you'd say, I'd rather have this house than a toilet in the city center." Lin Xue smiled meaningfully, and with silver hair, she looked at the house in front of her with bright eyes, which was almost the residence she wanted in her dreams.

After entering the main entrance, you will be greeted by a large living room that looks extremely simple, not as golden as imagined, and there are almost no other colors in this house except black, white and gray.

In the center of the living room are two semicircular fabric gray couches, and behind the sofa there is a large curved Y-shaped staircase, even if you haven't gone upstairs, you can already see the decoration style through the transparent glass under the railing on the second floor.

The tatami mats and low beds are instantly recognizable as Japanese-style dΓ©cor. The rest of the details are too many to be seen, and a few people after entering the house even circled around the house.

Only Ye Yao sat on the sofa without taking a few more looks.

"I really like this house so much." Lin Xue sighed more than once.

"What's the use of what you like, you're not the mistress of the house." Ma Rui was also looking at the house, and then looked at Lin Xue and tilted his head and said, "Why don't you ask Brother Xiao to see if he is interested in you." ”

"How are you talking?" Lin Xue was a little strange at Ma Rui's meaning, but her tone was a little ambiguous, and her eyes glanced at Xiao Ke unnaturally.

In fact, in the past few days, she has long had a good impression of Xiao Ke, but she always felt that Xiao Ke was not such an approachable person, although the two also communicated a lot, but when she thought about it carefully, she was actually looking for a topic to talk to him, and the other party was more like an answering machine.

At the same time as Ma Rui spoke just now, Lin Xue also wanted to see how Xiao Ke would behave, but it seemed that the other party didn't hear it, and just closed the door.

Then he raised his hand to the people and said, "You sit here for a while, and I'll go and see what else I have to eat." ”

After saying that, he walked upstairs by himself, and he didn't look back once until he disappeared from Lin Xue's field of vision.

Lin Xue lowered her head in some disappointment, put her hand on her white and tender thigh, and pinched it repeatedly.

She hadn't changed her clothes for a week, and she didn't really like the chiffon pants she was wearing now, probably because she bought them from a special store, and she always felt that the quality was terrible and she didn't feel comfortable to wear, but it was also possible that it was just psychological.

"Why haven't they come yet, Qin Kai?" Ye Yao asked suddenly.

"Yes, didn't they go ahead of us? Why hasn't it arrived yet? Marry reacted immediately, he stood up and walked to the bronze door, narrowed one eye, and then looked out into the cat's eye.

All I could see was a sliding iron door at the perimeter wall, and nothing else.

"Something must have happened, right?" Ye Yao was a little worried. After all, we have spent a lot of time together, so it is easier to feel empathy.

However, her worries only stayed for this moment, and were quickly replaced by other thoughts in her head.

Having a mayor's father is sometimes not a good thing, classmates chewing the root of their tongues behind their backs, and it is common for them to be treated with strange eyes, which is what Ye Yao has experienced since she was a child.

After entering the university, she completely concealed such a unique identity of herself.

Become a normal person and get along with classmates, and even your boyfriend doesn't know that she has such an identity. That ordinary feeling was the life she had always wanted.

I didn't expect this to happen.

The boyfriend is gone, and the world collapses overnight.

She still didn't say a word about it, and if what she thought was right, her father must have tried every means to contact her by now, and it was a sure thing to send someone to pick her up from school.

So in fact, as long as they go in the direction of the school, they will never go wrong. But Ye Yao didn't want to do this, she didn't want to live under her father's powerful background anymore.

Even if you can't live, as long as you think about not having that sense of oppression, it's still surprisingly wonderful.

I think I have already made a choice in my heart.

However, she still felt guilty, after all, if she told the actual situation, these friends who stayed with her would have a chance to be rescued.

This is equivalent to selfish self-interest, ruining everyone's hope of salvation.

The more Ye Yao thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, especially when she saw Qin Kai and the others who had not appeared for a long time, this sense of self-blame became stronger and stronger.

Time passed in a long wait.

The sunset was quietly falling, looking at the orange-red light reflected outside the window, Xiao Ke couldn't help but squint his eyes, he put his hands on the desk and slowly stood up, and then reached out and pulled up the curtain in front of him.

In the process, he accidentally touched the pen holder on the desk, and the black gel pen fell apart into a wreath pattern.

The curtains were drawn, and the room was a little darker, but the curtains were not completely opaque, so the things in the room could still be seen clearly.

Hunched over, Shook picked up the black gel pens on the table one by one, and stuffed them back into the solid black cylindrical pen holder. Then he opened the first drawer on the left-hand side of the desk, and inside lay a delicate book.

It's a hardcover version of Keigo Higashino's "Shisheng", which Xiao Ke had read during the most desperate period of his life, and he liked a sentence in it - you will like all kinds of people in the future, and it is because you live that you can do this.

Xiao Ke stroked the cover of the book and sighed, "Yes, only alive can there be hope." ”

Then he picked up the book and laid it flat on the table, and underneath the original press lay an extremely heavy book, "The Perjury of Solomon."

Shook had heard the title of the book, but he had never turned it, because it was so thick that he didn't have the slightest desire to read it. He quickly took the book out, laid it flat on the desk, and opened it.

A large pit had been dug in the middle of the book, and a silver-gray Beretta 92F pistol was lying quietly inside.

Schock picked up the pistol, exited the magazine and looked at it, not a single bullet was missing, then stuffed the magazine back again, then lifted his clothes and stuck the pistol at his waist.

Then he reached into the original drawer, and instead of looking, he smeared it and smeared it and pulled it up twice, and soon there were three more pistol magazines in his hand. He turned his waistcoat outwards and pressed the three magazines against the inside of the waistcoat.

After that, he put everything back in its place, gently closed the door of the study, and walked out.

Walking up the hallway on the second floor, you can see at a glance the three people lying on the sofa downstairs. Shook coughed lightly as he walked downstairs.

The sleepy-eyed Ma Rui was awakened by the noise, and he had been sleeping deeply, but he had slept very lightly since the outbreak of the disaster.

Ma Rui rubbed his eyes, he didn't know when he fell asleep, he looked up at the ventilation window on the bronze door, it was obviously dark.

"Weird, we're all asleep, how long have you been there?" Ma Rui squinted his eyes and said, looking like he hadn't woken up yet.

"Actually, I came back early, but seeing that you were all asleep on the couch, I went to take a shower and slept for a while." As he spoke, he walked and quickly descended the stairs.

"Take a bath!?" Lin Xue, who was originally lying on the sofa on her side, immediately poked her head out, only to see that Xiao Ke had already changed out of the dirty and smelly clothes, put on trousers, put on a white shirt and a pure black vest, and the appearance of the suit and leather shoes made people look full of energy.

"I'm going to take a shower too, I'm just going crazy with the smell of myself." Lin Xue looked at Xiao Ke in front of her with bright eyes, and her eyes were full of like.

"Then you'd better hurry, there's the bathroom." Shook raised his index finger and pointed in one direction on the second floor: "Because I haven't found the backup power button yet, it's going to be dark soon." There is still electricity, but I don't know when it will be cut off. ”

When Lin Xue heard this, she immediately got up and strode towards the stairs, but halfway through, she suddenly remembered something, stopped urgently, and said, "Do you have any clothes for girls here?" ”

"Nope." Xiao Ke didn't reply, then thought for a moment and added: "You can wear my pajamas, just in my bedroom, the room next to the bathroom." ”

"Great!" Lin Xue happily continued to run upstairs.

At this time, Ma Rui turned his head and looked at Ye Yao who was leaning on the sofa with her head tilted, although her eyes still hadn't opened, but the frowns between her eyebrows from time to time showed that she was awake.

"Ye Yao." Ma Rui called her lightly and said, "Aren't you going to wash with her?" ”

"Of course, it would be nice to be able to take a shower. It's not like she's still washing, I'll just wait. Ye Yao lowered her head and leaned her head on her knees, and then sat with her hands clasped on her calves.

"Then again, what have you been doing for so long?" Ma Rui looked back for Xiao Ke's figure, only to find that he had left the living room unconsciously, he looked around, Xiao Ke did not go far, just stood in the kitchen separated by a glass wall.

"It's not such a big thing, I can't check to see if there's anything missing in the house." As he spoke, Shook opened the door to the refrigerator.

There's plenty of vodka stored in it, as well as a small amount of carbonated drinks, and there are also but not many of them, and most of them are cooked foods that can be eaten directly as long as they are slightly heated.

However, the power has not been cut off, but the refrigerator has no refrigeration function for some reason, which is not a good place to store food, and an uncomfortable smell permeates it.

Although the kitchenware in the kitchen is readily available, after all, Xiao Ke rarely cooks and eats when he lives alone, and the nature of his work is that he goes out early and returns late, except for staying home to rest on weekends, there is no condition for him to cook the rest of the time.

This has created a situation where there is only cooked food and wine in the refrigerator.

Although he knew very well what he had in his heart, Xiao Ke couldn't help but sigh when he opened the refrigerator with his own eyes and saw it, he should really stuff more food into the refrigerator instead of just putting wine in it.

At this time, there was a "bang" sound from the second floor, which seemed to be the sound of the stainless steel basin being knocked over.

The three of them stood at different angles and looked in the same direction.
