In the next few days, Jiang You made two trips to the Public Security Bureau and went to Xu's house once. The rest of the time, he worked diligently, opened the door every day, picked up the Taobao store that he had forgotten for a long time, and went on a clearance promotion, and the turnover was about to break four figures.

Soon, it was the evening of December 22.

He received Wu Ya's; ——

Wu Ya stood by the door of the bungalow.

She looked out.

Thin clouds faintly obscured the moon.

The wind blows through the dry and hard fields, and the dead grass shakes and makes a stinging sound,

A black car came from near and far.

Wu Ya took a few steps forward.

The light of the headlights flickered across her face, illuminating the potholed dirt in front of the bungalow.

The car stopped beside her.

The door opened, and a man in a black jacket stepped out, followed by a chubby man holding a child and carrying a backpack from the back seat.

It's Zhang Lin and Jiang You.

The smell of incense came through, and was quickly blown away by the wind.

Wu Ya looked into the car door, and Xu Jiaqi was crooked in the back seat with her eyes closed.

Zhang Lin hugged Xu Jiaqi out with both hands, and Wu Ya closed the car door.

The lights flickered and the car locked.

"It's cold."

She heard Jiang You's voice.

She saw Jiang You wrap his left hand around Jiang Mo's waist, free his right hand to pull Jiang Mo's hat up, and tighten the small scarf around his neckline, and then he followed Zhang Lin and walked into the bungalow.

The venue has been set up.

Intricate patterns were drawn on the floor, and in the middle of the room lay a transparent rectangular container the height of a person, in which a blue-black liquid flowed.

The blue candles were placed in rows and layers, unlit.

Jiang You took out his mobile phone from his jacket pocket and took a photo of the room.

"What are you doing?"

Wu Ya's voice sounded from behind Jiang You.

The voice was tense.

Zhang Lin, who was standing in front of him and was about to place Xu Jiaqi, turned around when he heard this, and he saw the mobile phone in Jiang You's hand.

"Can't you shoot it? Then I deleted it. Jiang You deleted the picture in front of them.

Zhang Lin and Wu Ya glanced at each other.

Zhang Lin took Xu Jiaqi down, he walked to Wu Ya's side, and he whispered, "The others have already started." The important step is up to you. ”

Wu Ya nodded.

She walked forward to Xu Jiaqi's side.

Zhang Lin said to Jiang You: "Let's go outside." ”

"It's been too windy outside, and he's been having a bit of a low-grade fever lately."

"I'll watch him, you get out." Wu Ya said.

"No, he's afraid of life."

"Then you go out together." Wu Ya's tone was tough.

Jiang You hesitated, but finally he nodded, put down Jiang Mo, and followed Zhang Lin out.

The cold wind poured into his neck, and he pulled the zipper of his down jacket up.

Zhang Lin glanced at him, his eyes suddenly fell on his bulging backpack, and he asked vigilantly, "What's in the bag?" ”

"In the bag?"

Jiang You took off his backpack and pulled it to the front, unzipping it, "Thermos cup, there's hot water in it, do you want to drink it?" Potato chips and shrimp crackers really take up space, and there are two chocolate cakes, and inside this mezzanine are sitch and his phone, and here's ......"

Jiang You took out a small acrylic box from his backpack, which contained a unicorn made of pink Lego bricks, "I built it, and I built it for a long time."

Watching Jiang You show things the same, Zhang Lin didn't know what to do for a while.

"It's all his stuff." Jiang You turned around and tried to see Jiang Mo behind the door.

"How did you come up with the idea of adopting him?"

Jiang You tore open the packaging bag of the cake, took out one and handed it to Zhang Lin, Zhang Lin hesitated for a moment and took it, Jiang You took a bite of the cake, "If I don't adopt him, what will he do?" ”

"Welfare home?"

"The welfare institute provides very basic things," Jiang You couldn't help but turn his head to look at the door again, and he said, "He's fine." ”

Jiang Mo watched Wu Ya take off Xu Jiaqi's coat, leaving only her underwear and putting her in the container.

Xu Jiaqi is not thin.

After putting it in the container, Wu Ya held on to the edge of the container and gasped for a few breaths.

The blue-black liquid flooded Xu Jiaqi's face, as well as her hair.

Some bubbles popped up.

Wu Ya's face was reflected on the surface of the water, Wu Ya saw herself, she saw her face change on Xu Jiaqi's face, she turned around suddenly, Jiang Mo stood by the door and looked at him quietly.

A little crimson deep in the depths of the pupil.

Then, the candles in the room were lit at the same time in an instant.

In the candlelight, she saw the figure of the goddess.

Befall.

She knelt down, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and began to recite the goddess's name reverently.

After eating the cake, Jiang You poured a cup of hot water from the thermos cup, he took a small sip, his lips were burned, "The hot water poured when I came out is still hot, I heard that it can be kept warm for 24 hours." ”

Zhang Lin suddenly felt a little uneasy, and he said, "Really? ”

He took out his phone and glanced at the time.

Jiang You looked around, there was no place to put things, so he took the cup and blew and drank at the same time.

"I feel very sorry for Old Xu," he looked at Zhang Lin, "I remember that you were his student." ”

"That's right, he has always encouraged me to go on academically," Zhang Lin sneered, he no longer concealed it, "I was deceived by him." ”

"Liared?"

"My family conditions are very ordinary, if he really appreciates me, he should go and fight for me, but he only pays lip service to ......"

It was very cold and the temperature of the water dropped quickly.

Jiang You drank a glass of water, covered it, and put it back in his backpack, he found a cigarette and handed it to Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin refused.

Jiang You lit his own cigarette, "You used to like Jiajia?" ”

Smoke fills your fingers.

Candlelight spills out of the cracks in the door.

"I thought he had an arrangement."

"What arrangement?"

"Jiajia has this kind of eldest lady's temper, who can stand her, only I am willing to ......," he recalled, "At that time, our department had a quota to go abroad, and I told Teacher Xu that I wanted to fight for it," his voice gradually lowered, "Fortunately, I kept a hand." ”

He sneered again, "Look at her, I'm right, no one can stand her at all." ”

Xu Jiaqi opened her eyes in the water.

The candlelight on all sides fell into the water.

Wu Ya's chanting voice lingered in her ears.

A blister.

Break open in front of her.

A large blue-black finger crossed the roof, downward, toward the center of her brow.

Zhang Lin suddenly felt something, he turned around, and the goddess in the long blue dress walked out of the illusion, light, and the skirt seemed to slide through the tip of his nose.

He fell to his knees.

Began to recite her name.

Jiang You took out his mobile phone, he downloaded the deleted picture from the cloud disk and sent it to Tang Butian.

He said, "Leader, I'm going to call the police." There were strange people doing strange things and kidnapping me and my son and my friends.
