Chapter 137: Thief
There were a lot of people on the subway, and Xia Chongming squeezed between the crowds, pulling her suitcase while grabbing the handrail beside her. The pulleys of the trunk were sliding around on the ground as the train moved, and it was very difficult to control.
Xia Chongming felt that the whole person had wasted a lot of effort in order to drag the suitcase back to her side, and she remembered that she didn't put anything in the suitcase! It's nothing more than some out-of-season clothes, and some daily necessities that she doesn't think she uses much......
How could this box be so heavy!
The arrival voice in the train sounded, and Xia Chongming couldn't help but feel ecstatic, it can be regarded as arriving at the station, but there is no need to squeeze around in the subway. She had never been on such a crowded subway, and she was about to turn into a paper man after this trip.
The door opened, the crowd swarmed out of the carriage, Xia Chongming was sweating profusely, his arms were sore, and he followed the crowd out.
The fresh air outside the carriage rushed to her face, and she escaped from the crowd, found a relatively open area, and took out a tissue from her pocket to wipe the sweat on her face.
Is this the rhythm of the city? It's obviously Saturday, but there are still a lot of people who go to work, but Xia Chongming saw a lot of office workers in the carriage, even on weekends, they have to run for life, and there is no time to rest.
In addition, there were many students in the carriage, and Xia Chongming knew that these students must have gone out to tutor in extracurricular classes on weekends. Dai Chuchen had mentioned to her before that he was also full of arrangements by Zhao Xueling on the weekend, and she looked at Dai Chuchen's busy appearance at that time, she was really glad that Su Jin did not arrange any courses for her, so that her life was so leisurely.
It's just that she also understands the reason why Su Jin didn't arrange it for her, because their family doesn't have that condition, whether it is manpower or material resources. When Zhao Xueling arranged those courses for Dai Chuchen, she was always by Dai Chuchen's side. But Su Jin can't, Su Jin's work needs to be on business trips all year round, and many times, Xia Chongming hasn't been able to meet Su Jin for a month.
Most of the weekends Xia Chongming spent were lonely, facing empty houses and empty homes. She went out for a walk and had no one to accompany her. She stayed at home and had no one to accompany her.
Maybe in a sense, she is very envious of Dai Chuchen, although he always seems to be busy and tired, but at least he has his family by his side, Zhao Xueling's attention to Dai Chuchen can be said to be unmatched.
In such a comparison, Xia Chongming will feel like a child who no one cares about.
No, she can't think so. Her mother, Su Jin, didn't ignore her entirely! Now the place where they live is earned by Su Jin, her college tuition is earned by Su Jin, and the food and clothing in her life are earned by Su Jin. Every time Su Jin comes back, the mother and daughter will always get together, if she has some small emotions in her mind, Su Jin will immediately notice it and help her relieve her mood.
Her mother was just too busy, too busy to take care of the house, too busy to care about herself, and put all her heart and soul into her daughter. Su Jin has always hoped that Xia Chongming can live a very happy and happy life.
Xia Chongming dragged the suitcase behind him and walked out of the subway platform. She thought about things with her head down, listening to the sound of the wheels of her suitcase scratching the ground, mixed with the hustle and bustle of the city, the noisy crowds, the honking of horns on the highway, and the occasional sound of cicadas in the trees in the distance.
She didn't know when Su Jin would come back this time, she wanted to contact Su Jin when she was in Penglai Immortal Island before, but she didn't have any communication equipment with her at that time. As soon as she came back, she fell into the trap of the dream demon, and after she finally escaped from death, she worked hard to cultivate her internal strength. This is delayed, there should be a saying that you haven't said a word to Su Jin in the past month, right?
Why didn't Mom send her a message? Is it too busy?
She also wanted to talk to Su Jin about her encounter with Su Soul in the hospital, and she also wanted to discuss what they ate for her birthday during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, and she also wanted to tell Su Jin about what she saw and heard in her new school, and she also wanted to ...... The hospital fell from the building and cultivated, forget it.
Su Jin should be worried, right? Xia Chongming touched the bronze ancient ring on his finger and pondered.
She has already thought about it, and when she gets home, she will send a video call to Su Jin using the Internet chat tool when she settles down, she really misses her so much, when will she come back?
Thinking about it, Xia Chongming had already walked downstairs to her house, she opened the unit door, walked in with her suitcase, took the elevator, and came to the floor of her house.
With a "ding dong", the elevator smoothly reached the floor where she should go, Xia Chongming walked out of the elevator, took off the backpack that had been carrying behind him, and looked for the key inside.
She had already placed the key in an easy place for her to reach, and she only rummaged through the door for a moment before finding the key and preparing to open the door and enter. She inserted the key into the lockhole, but suddenly something felt wrong, because she knew that the lock was not locked! This door is actually open!
What's going on? How could the door of their house be open, could it be that Su Jin has returned? It shouldn't be! If Su Jin came back, why didn't he tell her? If Su Jin came back, then Su Jin would definitely call her and tell her to go home quickly.
It's definitely not that Su Jin is back, so what's the situation? Who entered the house when there was no one in their house?
Could it be that their family was robbed? Someone broke in and stole something while no one was in their house?
As soon as this idea came out, Xia Chongming immediately became alert. It's not impossible, it's the most likely thing right now! It's not like this kind of similar case has never happened in the community where they live, after all, the property management level of their community is average, and every year there are thieves who take advantage of the owner's absence to steal things!
Xia Chongming hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and opened the emergency call dialing page in case of emergency. Often, you can't panic at this time, because you don't know the specific situation in the house, you don't know how many robbers there are, and you don't know if those robbers are likely to cause you harm.
Be sure to ensure your personal safety to the greatest extent possible, and then seize the opportunity to call the police as soon as possible!
She leaned her suitcase against the wall of the hallway, and then quietly approached her door, but she didn't open the door much, and she didn't make any sound at all. Hopefully, the people in the house haven't noticed that she, the owner of the house, has returned, and she shouldn't have scared the snake yet.
Xia Chongming's mobile phone has already dialed the alarm number, and he only needs to press the dial button when the time comes, and he can call the police. After experiencing those previous dangers, she has become extremely alert, and her ability to adapt to situations is much higher than before.
She walked to the door, put her ear to the door, and listened carefully to the movement inside the room. There seemed to be someone walking in the room, but the sound of walking was far away from the doorway, and it seemed that she was correct not to open the door rashly, and the person should not have noticed it.
Xia Chongming gently twisted the doorknob, trying not to make a sound. With the experience of escaping in the dream space of the dream demon last time, she also knew how to adjust the breath on her body to achieve the maximum state of "quietness".
She quietly opened the door a crack, and looked into the door along the crack, and what caught her eye was the dining table in their living room, as well as the closed doors of the two bedrooms, Xia Chongming listened to the footsteps and seemed to be in the direction of the balcony in the living room, so she tentatively opened the door a little more, and slowly poked her whole head in.
Her hands were covered with sweat, and the mobile phone became slippery in her hand, Xia Chongming slowly looked in, swallowed his saliva, and was panicked in his heart.
She was ready to call the police immediately as soon as she saw the situation in the house, figured out how many people the "thief" was, and immediately called the police when she saw what the "thief" was doing, without a trace of hesitation, not a minute or a second late. If it was too late, it was likely that the thief would have fled, or rushed over to kill her.
Although she is not afraid of death after going to the netherworld, she doesn't want to die again! Who knows if she'll be alive this time! And if Feng Qingyan finds out that she has gone to the netherworld again, she will definitely seize this opportunity to make her soul scatter!
Don't be careless! Everything has to wait to see the situation at home and make a decision at the moment!
She followed the footsteps, and gradually saw a pair of slender legs retreating step by step, wearing Su Jin's cotton slippers, bending over and walking backwards. Xia Chongming looked up from the bottom and finally saw clearly, the man was wearing Su Jin's pajamas, with short hair, and was mopping the ground with their mop in his hand.
Her back looked extremely similar to Su Jin, so much so that Xia Chongming was stunned when he saw it for the first time, isn't this Su Jin? Her hand, which was about to press the dial button, suddenly stopped, but fortunately, she almost dialed it out. , If she knew that her mother came back and reported to the police station that there was a thief at home, the police uncle would definitely give her a fifteen-day detention for disturbing the peace.
It's just that Xia Chongming, who looked at this back, was very puzzled, saying that it was Su Jin's appearance, but he didn't look like Su Jin at all, especially the short hair at that end, she clearly remembered that Su Jin had long hair, when did it become short hair? It's just that she is indeed wearing Su Jin's clothes and Su Jin's slippers, and her back is really the same.
It's just that Su Jin is back, why didn't he tell her? She thought that her home had been burglarized, and she was about to call the police.
She stood at the door, gradually opened the door, and said hesitantly, "Mom? You...... I...... I am back! ”
Xia Chongming originally wanted to ask Su Jin why he came back, but when the words came to his lips, it became "I'm back", this is a potential habit in the depths of her body, and it is the first thing she must say every time she goes home, even if she has more questions in her heart, she still habitually says this sentence first.
