Chapter Twenty-Four: Panic
The big tree hole in the suburbs got its name from the fact that there was an old tree in that area that had died.
Although this ancient tree is dead, judging from the bald branches and vigorous root system, we can imagine that when it was growing vigorously, it should have deep roots and lush leaves.
But the most striking thing about this tree is that there is a huge hole in the thick trunk surrounded by the five people, and this big hole is the cause of the death of this ancient tree.
There are different opinions about the formation of tree holes, some say that termites are hollowed out, some say that they are caused by lightning and fire, and some say that the tree reaches its life span and is corrupted and empty from the inside, but how this big hole is formed, the truth is very far away and is unknown.
In any case, this is a thousand-year-old tree, and even if it withered, the government still protected it with a fence and marked it.
The hole of this tree is large, and sometimes it is inevitable to enter some wind-blown debris, and when the weather is dry, the spark will burn, so the sanitation workers will clean it up regularly.
But in winter, due to the recent frequent snowfall, the workers are too cold and lazy, and they have not come to clean up for more than a month.
On this day, the workers on duty passed by the big tree hole, so they took cleaning tools and tried to clear the snow inside. There seemed to be some debris in the tree hole that was thrown into it, and the sanitation uncle took a shovel and pricked it in, feeling like he had shoveled on some fabric, and shoveled it a few times forward, and he didn't know what it was, and pulled out the spade, and suddenly found that there was something hanging on the edge of the shovel head, and he was scolding in his heart, which immoral thing threw the garbage and debris here, and looked at it, it was a scalp with hair, there was no blood, and the scalp was white and rubbery. He felt like a wig, rubbed it in his hand, and suddenly, as if he had seen a ghost, threw down the shovel, and crawled away.
Beihan No. 3 Middle School
Yuan Huaxing didn't listen carefully to a single lesson in all of today's classes, the first god in the grade, but in physics class, he didn't answer the question, and the physics teacher was happy.
The physics teacher wrote the electric heating formula on the blackboard, pointed to RT and asked the class what it was, she looked out the window and replied casually, it was a right angle, Xu Junfang laughed so much that she came back to her senses embarrassedly, and the physics teacher also looked helpless, looking at her with a smile.
Finally hit noon, Yuan Huaxing was listless, from last night I dreamed that Chen Xiao fell into the swamp and woke up, tossing until now, her eyelids have been fighting, she went outside the school to eat some buns, and went to the old building to feed the cat, and then returned to the dormitory, when she entered, she saw the aunt of the dormitory glance at her, and thought, "This dormitory manager really doesn't look like an aunt who cares for the door, where is it not like it?" Maybe it's because she's so pretty. ”
This time she didn't go to the fourth floor again, if Chen Xiao came back, she would definitely open the curtains, but when she saw it on the playground just now, it was still the same as in the morning.
Back in the dormitory, lying on the bed, Yuan Huaxing only thought about things for a while, and then went to sleep.
When Aunt Wan pushed open the door of bedroom 415 again, Chen Xiao had already changed her clothes, and she was bending down to pick up things under the bed, obviously her body had recovered, which made Aunt Wan impressed.
Like this kind of self-healing ability, it is unique to the Yin people, as they get older, the more time passes, the deeper the ability, like the self-healing of broken bones, Chen Xiao, a newcomer who has just become a Yin people, will take at least 2-3 days, not to mention that she has broken more than one place.
Aunt Wan secretly wondered what was going on with this girl, and how she felt a little different.
"You can go to class."
Chen Xiao responded, "Aunt Wan, there was a yin ghost last night, it was it who dragged Uncle Hai, how is it?" ”
From the time she escaped to the rooftop, when she was rescued and returned, until now, she had not seen Yu Hui's soul.
Aunt Wan shook her head and recalled that maybe she came up in a hurry last night and didn't see anyone's ghost.
At 2:40 p.m., the fog had cleared and it was still cold.
A Mitsubishi off-road vehicle stopped at the school gate, and a man with a lofty spirit got out of the car, and it was none other than Yu Haibo, director of the Public Security Bureau.
He knew who Yuan You was concerned about, and who else could he be besides Chen Xiao. If the son can commit suicide, my parents are probably not counted, otherwise how could he be so ruthless, thinking of this, Yu Haibo's heart twitched fiercely.
He walked up to the fourth floor, the students were in class, and the sound of the teacher chanting questions could be heard from time to time in the building, and the corridor was empty.
He saw the door number of the second class of liberal arts hanging on the wall, this is where his son studied before his death, and it is also the place where he has accompanied his son for the longest time.
He sighed silently, remembering that he was still in the office of Beihan No. 3 Middle School last month, and wanted to get Chen Xiao out of school, he felt ashamed in his heart, and couldn't help but clench his palms.
Students streamed out of the classroom, where some children sat in their seats, chatting, drinking, eating, and sleeping on their stomachs.
Chen Xiao was putting his left hand on the desk, and his right hand pressed the broken position that was hit by Uncle Hai last night, and there was nothing unusual, and it had recovered as before.
She had already thought about it, and she didn't take the initiative to find Yuan Huaxing first, because such a move would be too obvious and abnormal. She saw Zhuo Yixuan's seat again, which was as empty as a wilderness, which made people panic.
The disappearance of Uncle Hai and Zhuo Yixuan must be inseparable, and I don't know that Zhuo Yixuan is the murderer, but where can Uncle Hai be now? Will it have been exposed to the public eye, and after thinking about it, it shouldn't be, at least the six bureaus are not allowed.
Thinking about it, he looked up at the door unintentionally, a middle-aged man stood there and looked, and when he saw her, he waved his hand to her and motioned for her to come out. Chen Xiao was not too surprised, Yuan Huaxing had already told her, she knew the purpose of Yu Haibo's coming,
If there is enough time, Yu Haibo wants to apologize to Chen Xiao first, after all, when they met for the first time, he was in the office of the teaching director, and he didn't give a good face, and now he is a little embarrassed to ask someone for help.
But ten minutes between classes, it was about to pass in a blink of an eye, he didn't care about that face anymore, and said the reason, Chen Xiao simply agreed, which surprised him, of course, this was not because Yuan Huaxing greeted him in advance, after all, Yu Hui's death was related to her, and it was his ghost who saved her last night, which made her feel even more guilty, this favor is not called help, she has to do it, the time is agreed, it is the evening of two days later.
Soon, the second class in the afternoon, science class, physical education class.
Physical education class is what most students like, at that time, the physical education teacher was not strict, basically did the warm-up activities, and then after the roll call, you can move freely.
Sometimes, some students are not in a hurry, and when their bodies are warmed up and run around the playground, they will hide in the public toilet of the playground passing by, and the teacher will usually turn a blind eye, anyway, only a few people are like this.
Maybe it's a little cold today, so everyone just discussed it, and after a lap of 800 meters, back to the finish line, something embarrassing happened.
There were only three people standing there alone in a class, the physical education teacher was laughing and angry, and his voice was so loud on the playground that Chen Xiao could hear it in the class.
The second class of liberal arts was in history class, and when he was talking about why Wu Sangui led the Qing army into the customs, and Chong Guan's anger may have been made up by later generations, the roar of the physical education teacher on the playground made even the history teacher pause and look out.
Chen Xiao saw that there was Yuan Huaxing among the three people on the playground, her short hair and tall figure were a little conspicuous among the remaining two people, the physical education teacher was angry, and the remaining three classmates were frozen, and among the three people, Yuan Huaxing was a girl, Chen Xiao shook his head, "It's really solid!" ”
The history teacher continued: "Who is the red face of Wu Sanguiwei according to legend? She is Chen Yuanyuan, her original surname is Xing, her name is Yuan, her name is Yuanyuan, and her name is Wanfang! ”
Chen Xiao listened with interest.
After five o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xiao secretly went to the first class of science, she saw Yuan Huaxing lying on the table from the back door of the class, I don't know if she was asleep, she was a little relieved, and then returned to the class.
Soon, after the night self-study, Yuan Huaxing yawned and wiped her tears, Liu Jing sat next to her silently, staring at her with an incomprehensible expression, Yuan Huaxing opened her eyes after wiping her tears, and saw her big face, scared to wake up.
"What are you doing, scare me." Yuanhua Star Hatred Monster.
"You're a little abnormal today, you've been beating you since you were late in the morning, it's like your soul has been sucked away by someone, yawning, lethargic, absent-minded, what else can you describe, let me think, oh yes, unkempt, what's wrong with you?" Liu Jing had the expression of an elder asking a junior.
"Oh, don't bother me, look at it, what time is it, get the car and go home, you're not too cold." Yuan Huaxing said that he had already stood up and was about to go out.
Liu Jing didn't understand it anymore, "It's not normal, it's not normal." ”
She had never seen Yuan Huaxing have any troubles and sorrows, there must be something wrong with such an abnormality, and Yuan Huaxing said with a tired and somewhat bad expression on his face when he went out: "You, don't fight for righteousness, don't fight for physical education."
Liu Jing recalled it and couldn't help laughing, "The afternoon physical education class is really funny!" ”
Yuan Huaxing walked out of the teaching building, on the playground, and saw Chen Xiao's bedroom lit up from a distance, and instantly had the energy, and after waiting for a day, he was anxious, and he couldn't wait, and walked quickly to the dormitory building.
Yuan Huaxing's face is very recognizable, not a public face, the dormitory aunt seems to recognize her, as long as she passes, she will glance at her with her eyes, which makes her can't help but glance back, she didn't care much about it before, but she always felt that if she looked around like this in the future, it would be too strange, so she went backwards, looked at the dormitory aunt with a side face and said, "Sister!"
Aunt Wan sneered at her sister's call, "You kid, your mouth is quite sweet." ”
"It's not sweet, I don't think you're much older than us."
Aunt Wan thought to herself, "This kid is really not ordinary. ”
"Then what are you doing going backwards?"
"Are you misunderstanding me? Especially today. Yuan Huaxing said.
Aunt Wan smiled again, "There's no misunderstanding, just sitting here, I have to keep an eye on every student who lives on campus, it's you who are too sensitive." ”
"No, I don't feel like you're a dormitory manager."
"Why?"
"Temperament, conversation and demeanor."
"Child, I really don't mean anything else, I'm your dormitory manager! Get used to staring at students. Aunt Wan became a little serious.
"Alright! Goodbye, sister! After Yuan Huaxing finished speaking, he went upstairs.
Aunt Wan looked at her back, "Is this Yuanhua Star also a yin person?" ”
