Chapter Seventy-Two: Go for a Walk

My mother said to the others while protecting me, "She's still a student, and she's about to start her third year of high school!"

"Li Jingjing is a junior high school girl!"

I tightened my clothes, tears rolling in my eyes, and I hung my head to look at the pair of feet on the ground, who were still walking forward.

"Not me...... It's really not my ......."

"Then I would like to ask, in what capacity are you questioning us?"

Mother's loud words made the other people look at each other, and the look on their faces was uncertain, and my mother stopped pestering them and led me back.

"Nono, don't think about it, it's not you."

"Hmmm......"

I cowered over and followed my mother, all the same words echoing in my head, all accusing me of killing people.

"Mom, can I not go to school?"

"Okay, let's rest for a few days and then go."

Finally back at home, I unloaded my tiredness and leaned back on the sofa, staring blankly at the wall opposite.

Mother brought a bowl of noodles over and put it on the table: "Nuno, you eat something, Mom will make a call."

"Mom is going to call the school?"

Mother's hand in her pocket froze, then she turned around and said, "Yes, Mom is going to take you out for a walk."

I shook my head and said softly, "I just want to stay at home and don't want to go anywhere."

"Anyway, I'll give you a leave of absence."

I didn't want my mom to see it, so I reached out and hugged my legs, burying my whole face between them, and letting the tears run freely on my face.

There was no light at home, only a small dim lamp outside the door was on, and the mother's thin back stood under the lamp, with a mobile phone in her ear, and her lips were closed and she was talking to the other end.

The whimpering sound grew louder and louder, and I tried my best to cover my mouth to keep the sound from coming out, but my trembling shoulders still betrayed me.

I buried my head deeper at the sound of my mother's footsteps, and my mother's warm palm was on my shoulder, making an inaudible sigh.

"Nuno, don't think too much, now you eat that bowl of noodles, and Mom put eggs in it for you."

"Mom, I'm scared ......"

I sniffled and looked up at my mother through my teary eyes.

My mother's nose was sore, and tears almost burst out of her eyes: "It's okay, this matter ...... It's indirectly related to you, but we've done everything we can. ”

"But I'm just uncomfortable, I'm ...... I don't know what I'm going to do! ”

"Li Jingjing's parents only have one daughter, and you will respect them as parents in the future."

"They won't forgive me."

I don't know how long I talked to my mother, and I don't know how long I cried, until about 9 o'clock the next morning, I woke up in a daze.

"Mom......"

I lifted the covers and went to the living room, where the floor was full of luggage while my mom was still packing up in the kitchen.

"Mom, what are you doing packing up?"

My mom came out of the kitchen, wiped her hands on her apron and said, "Mom said I'll take you out for a walk."

"I don't want to go out."

"Everything is packed, tomorrow we will go out and go to the next city."

"Mom, I really don't want to go out."

"Nuno, you just listen to your mother once, go out for a walk."

Looking at my mother's somewhat anxious face, a thought flashed through my mind, so fast that I couldn't grasp it.

"Mom, are you hiding something from me?"
