Chapter 139: A Warm-Hearted Little Girl
On the bus, drowsy...... Three hours later, we finally arrived at the Yunlai Hotel, but the door was tightly closed, and we always felt that the situation was not right.
"You're a tourist from out of town, aren't you?" A little girl's voice came slowly, startling me.
I turned around, stroked my heart, and let out a long sigh of relief. It turned out to be a teenage girl with two long braids, and the ends of the braids were tied with red headbands. The red head rope can be used to eliminate disasters and take refuge, maybe the little girl's mother specially asked her to tie it in her hair.
The little girl's big eyes looked straight at us, and the corners of her mouth showed an elusive smile. Look at her dress, like a native of Yunyuan Town.
Yunyuan Town is a place where ethnic minorities live, and it is easy to distinguish the difference between foreign tourists and local residents from the clothes and clothing, so the little girl will recognize us as tourists from other places at a glance.
"Yes...... We have just come here and want to stay at Yunlai Hotel. But...... Why is the door closed? "I thought to myself, maybe this little girl will know about the Yunlai Hotel. So I wanted to get more useful information from her mouth.
We're really afraid that this time it's for nothing, and the twigs ...... At stake, we are in a situation where there is no way out, and it is not easy to find another village in the dark.
"Don't you know that our Yunyuan Town has been weird lately? How dare you come to us? Especially girls...... Many of the girls from other places have disappeared for no reason, and all the outsiders who went to look for these girls have disappeared. It is said that there are ghosts doing evil, even if we locals rarely go out...... "The little girl should be kind, so she will tell us these things."
And didn't Song Xiaozhi also disappear here? Could it be that there is some kind of relationship between the two? I couldn't help but think in my heart, maybe we found out the reason for this strange thing, and we can find Song Xiaozhi along the way.
"Little girl, since we are here, we will naturally not be afraid. But thank you, and for now, we want to ask one thing, do you know where the owner of this inn has gone? Why did the hotel close all of a sudden? Red Ayaxin was quick to talk and asked the question we wanted to ask.
The little girl told us that the proprietress of Yunlai Hotel had not opened the door for many days. I think it's because of the frequent disappearances of young girls recently, so there are a lot fewer people visiting here, which naturally affects her business. If you can't make ends meet every day, you can only close the door.
When Red Aya told this little girl what we thought, she shook her head again and again.
"That's not the case, the proprietress of the family is because there is a happy event at home, and she has to be busy at home all the time. I didn't have time to take care of the business, so I closed the store. The little girl played with the long braid on her chest, and from time to time she wrapped her hair around her fingers, and then loosened it, and so on, as if she was passing the boring time.
"Happy event? What's the happy event? "It's like hearing something important, and the professor's eyes light up. He would always dream that Twig was calling to him, and in front of his eyes, Twig and the male ghost in the photo would always be seen marrying him......
Will? Maybe......
"Of course Aunt Chen's son wants to get married! His son heard that he was going to get married in the next few days, and the bride heard that it was an older sister from out of town. They all say that sister is beautiful...... It seems to be love at first sight with Aunt Chen's brother Chen. Fluttershy wants to have a romantic love story like her older siblings. "Innocent and romantic, Fluttershy is at an age with a pink girly heart. She fantasizes about having such a sweet love......
However, that beautiful sister from out of town...... Could it be Song Xiaozhi? And isn't the shopkeeper's son dead? The professor has seen her son's photograph with his own eyes, and now Fluttershy says he's getting married? Isn't there something hidden in this that they don't know?
"Fluttershy, isn't the boss's son or Aunt Chen's dead? So how could he marry a new daughter-in-law? Gu Zhihan frowned, and something like a vertical and horizontal ravine had formed between his eyebrows. It seems that he didn't even figure out what happened in the middle, and we couldn't figure it out.
Now that all the joy is on Fluttershy, she can only get some information from the little girl's mouth.
When Fluttershy heard Gu Zhihan say this, she made a series of spits one after another. I, Hong Aya, Gu Zhihan, and the professor were all very puzzled, looking at this little girl in surprise, thinking to themselves why this girl was so uncivilized, why did she spit on the ground in front of us?
"Oh, don't talk nonsense! In our case, foreigners will die if they talk nonsense. Fortunately, I understand how to crack this, but fortunately, my mother-in-law told me about it, if I didn't know, Brother Chen would have been killed by you! Fluttershy pouts at us, much to our awkwardness.
Did we say the wrong thing just now? The dust brother in Fluttershy's mouth must be the shopkeeper's son, who is also the son of Aunt Chen, according to Fluttershy, he is a big living person, and he is still alive and well. Just now we inadvertently questioned the fact that he was still alive, which violated their taboo here.
Fluttershy spits three mouthfuls on the ground, presumably in response to our outrageous words. And that's what she called the way to crack it.
"I'm sorry, we didn't mean to...... Fluttershy, do you know where there are hotels? It's not getting early, and we'll have to stay here for a day or two. It's inconvenient to not have a place to live......" I sincerely apologized to Fluttershy, as if the professor wanted to say something, but Gu Zhihan touched him with his hand and shook his head at him, and the professor's blurted out words immediately swallowed back.
Don't think about it, I know what he's trying to say. It's like what happened on the train, and it was clear that it was what I saw, but the others didn't know anything, and it was different from what I said. In this way, the heart is naturally uncomfortable. As for the professor, he saw the son of the innkeeper appear in the posthumous photo, but the fact is that the son of the other family is alive and well, and there is nothing wrong at all.
Don't......
"Aunt Chen has two sons?" The voices of me, the professor, and Gu Zhihan came out almost at the same time. It's the only possibility we can think of, and if one of our two sons died, it wouldn't be strange that the other was still alive, wasn't it?
"Why! Aunt Chen only has one son, Brother Chen, and I like to play with Brother Chen since I was a child, and he treats me well......" Fluttershy smiled and looked ...... casually glanced at Gu Zhihan.
And when Fluttershy looks at Gu Zhihan, her face flushes slightly. My intuition tells me that this little girl is interesting to Gu Zhihan, but according to the temperament of Gu Zhihan, she will definitely not be emotional to such a little girl. Besides, Fluttershy is really too small......
"Oh......" the professor replied disappointedly, and I heard a sense of despair and sadness in his tone, as if the only dream in my heart had been shattered. Seeing him sad and sad, my heart was not good. But now for the four of us, the most important thing is our accommodation tonight. Where exactly are we going to live?
"We're very small in Yunyuan Town, so there's only one hotel in town......" Fluttershy looks at us as if embarrassed. Maybe it's because I feel like I'm not helping us, and I'm feeling very frustrated.
However, we don't blame her, after all, it's not her fault.
"So what do we do? God, earth, give me a good solution! Ah, why don't we buy a tent and find a grove to set up? "Red Aya's eyes were shining, I felt like I was in such a cold situation, and I didn't know what danger would be around me, and only the brain of this girl could come up with such a strange way.
However, what Red Aya said is also a solution. And I didn't even come up with such a solution...... Gu Zhihan was pondering and did not speak. The professor may be worried about the twigs, so he doesn't have time to think about them.
"Why don't you stay at my house? There are only two people in my house, me and my mother-in-law, and it will definitely be more lively if you go. But...... If you don't dislike it, because ...... My family is not in a good condition, so naturally I can't compare to where you big brothers and sisters from the big city live......" Fluttershy blushes and blinks at us with big beautiful eyes.
And the place where her gaze swept was already the place where Gu Zhihan's gaze touched. It seems that Gu Zhihan also felt that this little girl looked at him differently, he quickly escaped her gaze, and then looked away - it was me.
He actually smiled at me! By the way, I returned to my place and leaned in......
A black line immediately appeared in front of my eyes, and I naturally understood his thoughts. He's probably trying to make Fluttershy misunderstand the relationship between the two of us, so that he can save a lot of trouble, presumably mainly to cut off Fluttershy's thoughts about him.
This trick is really clever enough.
However, it always feels a bit cruel for a young girl like Fluttershy, who is just starting to fall in love. However, I knew that the short-term pain that was now might not be the best solution for her.
People grow up in pain, and I think Fluttershy will do the same.
