Chapter 10: The Affair of a Middle School Student

Thunderstorms are one of the hallmarks of summer.

Generally speaking, thunderstorms come and go quickly.

But today's rain is a bit strange.

It's been stuffy all afternoon, but not a drop of rain has fallen.

The sweltering heat makes people hide at home, or in the office, and are reluctant to travel.

In this way, it will naturally affect my business.

There wasn't a single guest in the teahouse all afternoon.

Luckily, I've never paid much attention to the teahouse business.

When there were no customers, I moved the lounge chairs behind the bar and took a good nap.

But I don't know if it's because of the psychological effect, although I am indoors, and the air conditioner is on, but this sultry weather still makes me very uncomfortable, lying on the recliner, looking at the ceiling of the teahouse, I can't sleep.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the wind finally rose, and a thick black cloud emerged in the sky, rushing quickly, blocking all the light, making the day lose its light and fall into the night.

"Snap"

"Snap"

……

I got up from my recliner and walked out of the bar and down the aisle between the tables, one by one, turning on all the lights in the teahouse.

After turning on the lights, I just got back to the bar and sat down.

"Boom ——!"

A bolt of lightning pierced the night, and a loud thunderclap reverberated in the air.

One fat and one thin, two teenagers who looked like middle school students pushed open the door of the teahouse.

They found a table and sat down facing each other.

I stood up again, walked out of the bar, walked over, placed a tea list among them, and asked them what they wanted.

One is fat and the other is thin, and both teenagers have a cold face.

They looked at each other very unkindly.

After listening to my question, they turned to me at the same time and said in unison that they don't drink tea.

I was stunned for a moment, there were still people who didn't drink tea when I came to the teahouse.

Still, I nodded and asked them, do you want anything else?

There is not only tea in my teahouse, but also snacks.

This time, instead of answering me, the two teenagers asked me a question.

They asked me if I was the master of Tongbai Palace.

I nodded and asked them what was the matter.

The fat boy answered me first.

"I want to summon spirits!" He said.

I nodded, and turned to look at the thin boy.

The thin boy said, "I want to summon spirits too!" ”

I was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you looking for the same person?" ”

One fat and one thin, the two teenagers nodded at the same time.

"Why are you looking for his or her soul?" I asked.

Listening to my question, one fat and one thin, the two teenagers, glared at each other, snorted coldly, and then told me what they had encountered from their respective perspectives.

The fat boy is called Gao Hong, and the thin boy is called Qiao Wen.

They are both students of H City No. 2 Middle School, and they are also good friends who grew up together.

But just five days ago, a huge crack appeared in their friendship.

There is a girl named Jiang Xue, who grew up with them since she was a child, and she is also the object of mutual admiration between the two of them.

Five days ago, she committed suicide by jumping off a building.

The fat boy Gao Hong suspected that Jiang Xue committed suicide because of the thin boy Qiao Wen.

One night three months before Jiang Xue's suicide, Gao Hong once saw Jiang Xue and Qiao Wen enter a hotel together.

And, the day before Jiang Xue's suicide, Gao Hong inadvertently saw a pregnancy test stick in Jiang Xue's schoolbag.

From these two incidents, Gao Hong guessed that Qiao Wen, a brute, had enlarged Jiang Xue's belly, and he was unwilling to be responsible, so Jiang Xue committed suicide.

But Qiao Wen scoffed at Gao Hong's statement.

Qiao Wen said that he took Jiang Xue to the hotel because Jiang Xue was in a bad mood that day and didn't want to go home, and he took her to the hotel to comfort her, he had never had a relationship with Jiang Xue, let alone got her pregnant.

Gao Hong immediately retorted,

To comfort others, where can you not be comforted?

Parks, playgrounds, cinemas, where can't you go?

Why do you have to go to a hostel?

Regarding Gao Hong's questions, Qiao Wen doesn't seem to be able to think of any other reason to refute them.

He carved out another position.

He said he suspected that Ms. Jiang had committed suicide because of Ms. Gao.

On the night before Jiang Xue's suicide, that is, on the same night that Gao Hong said that he found a pregnancy test stick in Jiang Xue's schoolbag, Qiao Wen saw Jiang Xue rushing out of a hotel crying, and she was followed by Gao Hong.

From this, Qiao Wen guessed that Gao Hong, a brute, forcibly did something to Jiang Xue, and Jiang Xue couldn't accept it, so he committed suicide.

Regarding Qiao Wen's statement, Gao Hong admitted that he had taken Jiang Xue to the hotel, but did not admit that he had done anything to Jiang Xue forcibly.

Qiao Wen immediately asked him, why did he take Jiang Xue to the hotel?

Gao Hong hesitated for a moment and said, he was also to comfort Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue knew that after he saw the pregnancy test stick in her schoolbag, he was in a bad mood and was reluctant to go home.

Hearing Gao Hong's words, Qiao Wen only replied to him with the word "hehe".

The word "hehe" annoyed Gao Hong at once.

After that, the two quarreled, and neither could convince anyone.

That's why they came to me, they wanted me to help them summon Jiang Xue's ghost and point out which of them was telling the truth.

After listening to their narrations, I was in a big head.

I really didn't expect that today's middle school students would have such a complicated affair, which is more bloody than the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama at eight o'clock.

I took a sip of tea, straightened out my thoughts, and asked them, has Jiang Xue ever dated other boys?

If there really is such a boy, then everything will be explained.

Gao Hong and Qiao Wen are both pure and good children.

They took Jiang Xue to the hotel, really to comfort her.

Jiang Xue's pregnancy really has nothing to do with the two of them.

But this question of mine seems to have touched the scales of the two of them at the same time, and the two people, who were still looking at each other unpleasantly, suddenly became the same enemy, and told me loudly in unison:

No!

Jiang Xue has never been in a relationship with other boys!

I:......

When the two of them were emotionally stable again, I told them that the conjuring would require Jiang Xue's hair, nails, and other things.

Hearing my words, the two of them looked embarrassed.

They said that Jiang Xue's body had been cremated, and it was impossible to get these things again.

I thought about it and told them that they could go to Jiang Xue's house and look for it again.

Jiang Xue has only been dead for five days, and her hair, nails and other things should still be found in her house.

The two of them thought about it, seemed to agree with me, and left.

Before leaving, they said that they would come back to me when they found Jiang Xue's hair and nails.
