When they were in college, Gu Song and Xia Shi were rivals. The two of them are naturally incompatible, and they don't like each other since they first met, and they often fight to the death because of various things.

In their junior year, they both fell in love with a girl at the same time. The girl's name is Chu Xinlei, a law student, and she is also recognized by her classmates as the school flower.

At that time, Xia Shi had a great chance of winning, and his classmates felt that he and Chu Xinlei were very compatible together.

Xia Shi has a steady personality, works seriously, and has a sense of reliability all over his body. His father is the director of the R City Public Security Bureau, his mother is the vice president of a state-owned bank, and his family is wealthy, and I don't know how many girls think of Prince Charming (although his skin is not white at all).

However, it turns out that Chu Xinlei still likes Gu Song, who is outstanding in appearance and has a complex and changeable personality. In her own words, she probably felt that Xia Shi was too rigid and serious, and it was better to be happier and more emotional with Gu Song.

Chu Xinlei's choice caused the relationship between Gu Song and Xia Shi to be more tense than before. However, this is not someone's fault, it's just that fate has arranged it this way, and they are quite helpless.

Seeing that Gu Song and Chu Xinlei often appeared in pairs on campus, Xia Shi's heart was both envious and jealous. Although the victory and defeat were divided, Xia Shi did not give up easily. For someone like him, who has to persevere to the end once he has recognized something, he feels that everything has room to turn around until the last minute.

It's a pity that just a few months later, for some reason, Chu Xinlei suddenly disappeared from the school, and she has not been heard from since. Not only that, Gu Song's appearance has also become very abnormal, he has always been lively and cheerful, he has become silent, gloomy and indifferent, often hiding alone in the corner, showing an attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away.

Xia Shi knew that Gu Song's transformation must be related to Chu Xinlei's "disappearance", but after several attempts, he was never able to ask any answer from Gu Song's mouth.

One night in early July, it was pouring rain outside. Gu Song was lying on the bed, listening to music while thinking about the murder that happened in the public toilet not long ago. Although he is not qualified to participate in solving the case, because it is something he has personally experienced, he cannot ignore it.

Suddenly, the door to the dormitory was slammed open. Gu Song was taken aback, opened his eyes and looked at the door. I saw that Xia Shi was drenched in rain from head to toe, like a chicken in soup, walking towards him angrily, his bloodshot eyes faintly revealing killing intent.

Gu Song's roommates all knew that the relationship between the two was very poor, and they got together to ensure that nothing good would happen. The good-natured boss was afraid that they would have a dispute, so he hurriedly blocked Xia Shi's way, and said in a round game: "The third child is not feeling well, if you want to find him alone, let's change the day." ”

"You all get out of the way, and no one gets in the way!" Xia Shi shouted angrily at the boss, pushed him away before the other party could react, walked quickly to Gu Song's bed, and dragged him off the bed.

From a short distance, Gu Song smelled a bad smell of wine on Xia Shi's body, and his heart suddenly sank, feeling that the situation was not good. Sure enough, Xia Shi didn't say a word, dragged him to the outside of the dormitory, and his strength was amazing, and he couldn't break it off.

"The surname is Xia, what are you going to do? We have something to say, do you have to do it? Gu Song yelled angrily. He knew why Xia Shi came to him, but he was a little unhappy when he made such a big noise.

Out of the dormitory, Xia Shi pressed Gu Song against the wall, glared at him angrily, and asked sharply, "Tell me, where did Xinlei go?" ”

"I've said it so many times, I really don't know."

"You don't lie to me. June 18th is the weekend, and Xinlei is obviously going out on a date with you. Why hasn't Xinlei been seen since that day? You're her boyfriend, how could you not know where she went? ”

"Does a boyfriend have to know all about her? Didn't the school leaders say that she dropped out of school, maybe there was something urgent at her family, and she didn't have time to say hello to us......"

"You fart!" Xia Shi glared at Gu Song viciously, "If the situation is as you say, with your character, you will definitely do everything you can to find out her whereabouts." You can't fool me, you know why she left school. Either you tell me the truth now, or ......"

"Or what?" Gu Song asked defiantly.

"I went to the city bureau to find my dad and asked him to help me investigate."

"Director Xia won't help you." Gu Song said with great conviction. Because Chu Xinlei's parents didn't want anyone to know about their daughter's mental disorder, they asked the police and the school to keep it a secret for them. Chu Xinlei's father is a well-known medical professor with extensive connections and good relationships with many leaders. So even if Xia Shi went to ask Director Xia for help, he would definitely not be able to ask why.

"How do you know that Director Xia won't help me?" Xia Shi's face became even more ugly, and he gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Song and said, "Bastard, you really still know something, don't you?" ”

"I know it has nothing to do with you, don't pester me anymore."

"On the 18th, where did you and Xinlei go?"

"It's our privacy, I don't have to tell you. If you're worried that I've done something bad and hurt Xinlei, then I can only say that you're thinking too much. I didn't hurt her, and I never will. ”

"Why should I believe you."

"Because I'm still standing here dignified and not being taken away by the police, that's the best proof of that."

Xia Shi sneered and said disdainfully: "People like you, even if you do something bad, you won't let the police catch you." ”

"Summer time, you've gone too far!" Gu Song finally couldn't bear it anymore. In the face of such slander and personal attacks, he is not a man if he gives in. "You let go of your hands!" He said to Xia Shi in a warning tone.

Xia Shi obediently did so, but in an instant, he swung his fist and smashed it towards Gu Song's face. Gu Song was caught off guard and was punched heavily, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.

"Damn, you're really doing it?" Gu Song wiped the corners of his mouth with his hand, and was about to rush towards Xia Shi, when the boss and the fourth child in the dormitory grabbed him together, and persuaded him: "Third child, you control it, don't be like him, if you make a big fuss, you will be demerited." ”

If it was in normal times, Gu Song wanted to fight with Xia Shi, and the nine cows didn't want to pull him back. But this time, he really felt guilty in his heart, and he couldn't say that he was completely irresponsible for what happened to Xinlei.

After calming down for a moment, he glanced at the lively students in the corridor with a cold and sharp gaze and said, "Whatever you see, go back to sleep, and don't fight today." With that, he was dragged back to the dormitory by the boss.

The moment he closed the door, he suddenly remembered that today was Xinlei's birthday. No wonder I was in a bad mood in the summer and drank so much wine.

Actually, Xia Shi has always liked Xinlei very much, and even cares about her more than me. Thinking of this, Gu Song sighed sadly, and his mood became heavier and more complicated......

Gu Song's memories ended here. After five years, Xia Shi still learned Xinlei's secret.

Qi Ruonan looked at the two of them in a daze, and only after a while did he ask again: "Senior brother, on the night of June 18th, why did you and Sister Xinlei appear in that kind of place?" ”

Gu Song smiled bitterly, and the expression on his face was even entangled. "Do you remember that in 2011, when we were in college, there was a terrible news in R City. A six-year-old girl had been missing for more than half a month, and the police finally found the girl's mutilated body in an abandoned school. After an autopsy, the police found that the girl had been imprisoned for several days and had been subjected to very severe abuse. ”

"I know about that case." Qi Ruonan frowned in disgust and said, "The murderer is an acquaintance of the victim's father, and he has a grudge with the man because of a debt dispute, and the problem between the two sides has not been resolved for a long time. To vent their anger, the killers kidnapped the man's six-year-old daughter, brutally tortured her to death, and dumped her body in an abandoned school. It is said that after the girl's body was discovered, the school began to be haunted, and every night there were unusually terrifying sounds, and some people saw the girl's ghost nearby. ”

"It was later confirmed that those claims were all rumors." Xia Shi also remembered the news from a few years ago. For a while, they often talked about it at school, and some even said that they wanted to go to the scene to find out.

"The truth of the matter is that there was a madman who ran out of a mental hospital and wandered to that place, and her crazy words happened to be heard by a passer-by who passed by late at night, and then after various associations and processing, it slowly turned into a haunted rumor. But the case was not solved until the rumors were confirmed. I was worried about whether that rumor would have anything to do with the homicide, so I ......"

"So......" Qi Ruonan asked in disbelief with his round and big eyes, "Senior brother, you didn't go there to investigate without permission, and you brought Sister Xinlei with you, right?" ”

"Yes." Gu Song nodded ashamedly, "You know, I'm too curious, and there are many people in the school talking about it, even Xinlei has shown great interest in it. Actually, she doesn't have a lot of courage, but she likes to take risks with me. We discussed it and decided to spend the weekend looking at the haunted school in hopes of finding out what was going on.

"On the night of June 18th, we arrived at our destination around 11 o'clock and walked around the school and didn't notice anything unusual. Next to the school is a messy shantytown, which was ...... five years ago."

"You bastard!" Before Gu Song could finish speaking, Xia Shi couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and stood up from the bed suddenly. If it weren't for Qi Ruonan's quick eyes and his quick hand and his timely hugging of Xia Shi's arm, his fist would have smashed on the bridge of Gu Song's tall nose.

Gu Song dodged backwards and shouted with a grin: "Didn't you say that you are not allowed to hit people?" Why did you regret it so quickly? ”

"I ......" Xia Shi gritted his teeth in resentment, and sat back on the bed, his clenched fists still trembling slightly. Gu Song, are you okay, you actually hid such a big matter from me for five whole years? If it weren't for another similar case in Jinshui County, I might not have known the true situation of Xinlei in my life. ”

"What can I do? This kind of thing is not something that I can just say casually. Gu Song saw Xia Shi's worried expression, and knew that this guy still missed Xinlei, and couldn't help but admire his infatuation.

"How is she now? Is it getting better? ”

"I don't know, I haven't been to see her in a long time." Gu Song lowered her head, sighed deeply and said, "Her family thinks that I hurt her and won't let me ......."

"You know where she lives, right?"

"Yes."

"Okay, you tell me her address, and the grudge between us will be written off."
