Chapter 18: The Third Crossing

At the police station, the conversation between Officer Serious and me was still going on.

"A woman in a black dress, she's been stalking me, but I don't know her at all." I simply confessed, "On the day of the wedding, she appeared at the wedding scene again, right near the door. My wife suspected she knew me, so she wasn't very happy all the way. ”

"Understood." nodded solemnly, "A woman's suspicion is really deadly." ”

As he said this, he sighed softly, as if he had experienced it himself.

"You'd probably think I'd be lying, right?" I suddenly became nervous again, "But I'm telling the truth, I don't really know that woman." ”

"What does it matter if you know her or not?" Seriously raised his head and looked at me.

I was silent, and I was right when I said seriously, the woman in black was not the cause of the accident. I was the one who caused Yuting's death, why was I so excited? If only I could have restrained my emotions at the time, just let her take a taxi, why should I hold her up?

But what's the use of so many "ifs"? People are dead, and it's useless to dwell on them.

The serious questioning of me didn't last long, and soon I was let back. This time, I didn't crouch in the detention center again.

As soon as I got home, I dialed back the watch without much thought.

With the experience of the above two times, I will never be surprised by the changes that followed. Although I felt like I was cheating, I had no choice but to do so in order to save Yuting.

However, the moment I disappeared into the plane of reality, a crucial question suddenly occurred to me.

When I travel back to the past time and space, where did I go in this time and space?

"Are you sure you want to buy this watch?" The familiar voice sounded again.

In front of me, there was still the smiling shopkeeper.

On my left, the beautiful woman in black is still looking at me suspiciously.

But as soon as I saw her, my fire flared.

If it weren't for you, would I have quarreled with Yuting? If it weren't for you, would I have lost Yuting?

I glared at the woman fiercely, but. She had turned her face away, and she didn't see my face.

I didn't bother with her, but simply took out my phone and started paying, without even saying a word.

"Okay, two hundred yuan for you, this watch is mine, right?" After swiping the payment code, I expertly stuffed the watch box into my trouser pocket and was about to leave the store.

"Wait." The old man suddenly stopped me.

I was stunned and turned around.

"Remember, young man, this watch must not be called back in the past!" The old man said earnestly.

"Got it." Of course I know this line, so I don't have to ask your old man to say more.

So, I pushed the door open and walked straight out.

However, this time, instead of running straight to my house, I flashed into a corner as soon as I went out, waiting.

It didn't take long for the woman in black to come out of it.

She walked out the door, but she couldn't see me, so she had to look around.

At this point, I stepped out of hiding and rushed straight to her side.

She was startled and took two steps back.

However, instead of letting her go, I pressed over to her side, my eyes wide open, like a police interrogating a prisoner.

"You, what are you going to do?" She finally spoke.

"Please, miss, don't pretend anymore. Aren't you going to stalk me? What, scared now? I sneered.

"What? Am I tracking you? The woman was stunned, and her beautiful face suddenly turned white, and I guess she might have even broken out in a cold sweat. 、

"I ask you, do you want this watch?" I pulled the watch case out of my pocket and put it in my hand, "What do you know about this watch?" ”

"Huh?" There was a look of horror in the woman's eyes, which made me even more suspicious.

This woman in black, does she also know the secret of this watch?

However, the woman did not say a word, just bit her lip tightly, and her expression was very ugly.

"You don't say, do you? Okay, that's fine. I put the watch back in my pocket, "But remember for me that this thing is already mine, and you don't want to take it back!" ”

She still didn't say a word.

"Also, don't stalk me anymore!" I held out my finger and pointed it at her, "If the next time I see you stalking me, or if I find you in my field of vision, I won't be polite to you who you are!" ”

I spoke in a tone like one of those street hooligans. But I had no choice. If I hadn't warned this woman, she would have been in the park where I had a date with Yuting, or even in the hotel where we got married.

But maybe that doesn't change anything. If the script had been written, the woman would have been there that day. What can I do? I can't call the police and ask them to arrest this woman who has been following me, right?

Anyway, I decided to strike first. As long as I had warned her, the woman in black might not have dared to be so presumptuous. As long as she doesn't show up, my plans will go smoothly.

The woman in black still didn't say a word, and it was terrifyingly quiet.

I don't want to say anything more, there's no point in going on.

So I spread my legs and ran forward.

When I ran to the toilet, I turned around.

The woman in black disappeared, and this time, she really didn't follow me again!

Where did this guy go? Did she really learn to be obedient and stop stalking me? Still a little suspicious, I couldn't help but look over there again, but I still didn't see a single figure.

Just then, I heard a voice.

"Trouble, young man, borrow it."

I turned around and saw that the old lady in a wheelchair had come to my side.

It turned out that I blocked the way of others.

"I'm sorry." I got out of the way.

At the same time, a bolt of lightning, a dazzling bolt of lightning pierced the sky. Then the thunder rang out. Heavy rain, it's coming down soon!

Something suddenly occurred to me, and I hurried forward to help the old lady, who had some difficulty in moving, to drive the car to the side of the road.

"Auntie, it's going to rain, you take shelter here first, the rain will stop immediately." I say.

As soon as the words fell, the rain poured down.

"Thank you, young man!" The old lady raised her head and looked at the sky, "Good people have good rewards!" ”

I smiled at her, but my eyes turned to the store.

The woman in black had indeed disappeared without a trace, and perhaps my warning had helped. Hopefully, this is the last time I'll see her.

Please don't show up again, this black-clad "Female Grim Reaper"! Please stay away from me and Yuting!

The plot behind is just like the last time. In the same way, I still followed Shiwen and then issued an ultimatum directly to him. Everything went well, and he really broke up with Yuting. Then, I showed up at Yuting's side just in time, but this time, I didn't need to jump into the river, because I stopped her before she was about to fall into the river.

My relationship with Yuting went smoothly and there were no more conflicts. She said that she was going to marry me on August 24, 2019, and I agreed, although I would actually like to change the date, but I was afraid that Yuting would disappear again this time. So, as long as she made the decision, I almost unconditionally let it go.

Of course, there is still a hidden pain in my heart, that is, the child in Yuting's belly, the child that does not belong to me.

It seems that Yuting is determined to give birth to this child, she actually concealed such an important fact, and even wanted me to be the father of this child?

This kind of thing, if it were to be changed to other men, I am afraid that they would be angry and break up with this woman immediately, and of course they would not marry her and become the father of that child.

But I didn't.

I don't know why I didn't do anything and let everything go naturally, as if I didn't know at all?

Perhaps, this is out of my love for Yuting, completely selfless love, right? Of course, it seems a bit hypocritical to say that.

But, perhaps, it was because I was helpless.

Am I going to shake this thing out? And then break up with her?

I was reluctant to break up with Yuting, and I didn't dare to force Yuting to kill this child. I know Yuting's personality very well, if she is forced to be in a hurry, she may really go to jump into the river!

Forget it, let her give birth, at most, I will have a second child in the future, and I will have a child that really belongs to me. As for this one, let's think of it as my adopted son or adopted daughter.

So, I chose to settle things and choose what others saw as a "nest".

My only wish is that Yuting can be immortal and alive.

Except for life and death, there is nothing big in life, it really is.

Sure enough, the woman in black didn't reappear, whether it was in the grove where I was dating Yuting, or somewhere else.

I always carry that magic watch with me, and I wear it on my wrist even when I sleep in the shower.

However, when I woke up one morning, I still felt as if someone had come into the house.

There was nothing missing in the room, but I found a brooch on the floor, a woman's!

At the sight of this brooch, my fire flared up again.

What's going on? Could it be that this woman has ever entered my house?

I still spend a lot of time at home, and from the perspective of time, that woman does have time to "commit crimes". In addition, there is no monitoring probe in this building, and it is a place where there are a lot of tenants, floating populations and couriers often enter and exit, so if a woman has entered this building, there is no way to find it.

But she didn't have my house key, and I didn't forget to close the door like last time, so how did she get in?

I called the landlord and asked him if he had given the keys to the house to someone else. The landlord replied that no, that is, he had given it to several agents before, and before renting, in order to be able to show potential tenants, the landlord gave the keys to the people of the agency company, but they have all been recovered.

I found another agent and they agreed with the landlord. However, the younger brother of an agent told me that in general, landlords have to change the keys for tenants, but some landlords simply do not change the keys in order to save some money. He said that it is also possible that some unscrupulous intermediaries have reserved the keys themselves, or some intermediaries have directly handed over the keys to some customers in order to save trouble, and some of those customers have secretly beaten them.

Because the landlord had as many as five intermediary companies at the beginning, he was assigned five keys each, and then there were many intermediary staff who passed by, plus there were many potential tenants who took them to see the property, so there were many "suspects" who could get this key. Obviously, it is impossible for me to investigate them one by one, let alone report the case for this matter.

In addition, the younger brother also secretly told me that some landlords have gone even further, and as long as the tenant does not bring it up, they will not even change the house key from beginning to end.

The house I live in has changed tenants several times, and I'm the one I've lived in for the longest. If the landlord has never changed the key, does that mean that the previous tenants may have the key in their hands?

Could it be that this woman used to live here? She's also a tenant here?
