Chapter 38: Worship Yourself

Zhang Tingting didn't want to talk to Li Dongliang, and I had no choice, but fortunately, I pressed the speakerphone, and he should have listened to the conversation between me and Zhang Tingting word for word, so that he knew that nothing happened to Zhang Tingting.

In order to avoid his embarrassment, I didn't talk to him anymore, and hung up the phone directly, and then I sank my face and asked Zhang Tingting, why didn't I go to school for a week?

"Who are you, and why do you care about me?" Zhang Tingting raised her thin eyebrows, twisted her waist, and turned her back to me.

"You call me brother, just by virtue of this, I should also ask clearly."

After a pause, seeing that she was indifferent and didn't mean to turn around at all, I slowed down and continued: "Tingting, is there something that happened, you don't want to go to school, tell me, I will solve it for you." ”

Zhang Tingting's shoulders trembled and slowly lowered her head.

Seeing her like this, I thought of school violence, and my heart was shocked, I hurriedly walked over and held her shoulders: "Did someone bully you, did you get beaten, tell me, I will not let that person have a good time?" ”

"No one hit me, it's because I don't want to go to school, Brother Gao, don't ask, I won't tell you."

Slowly let go of my fingers, I really can't figure it out, why Zhang Tingting suddenly didn't want to go to school?

She wasn't like this before, she wrote scripts seriously, and she could be happy for several days when she was praised by the school, so how could she suddenly have resistance to the school?

I don't understand, but I know that Zhang Tingting's son is very stubborn, if she doesn't want to say it, let me break my mouth, she won't speak.

"Okay, since you don't want to say it, then I won't ask, but from today onwards, you have to promise me that you must go to school." I retreated to the next best.

Zhang Tingting hesitated for a moment and nodded.

The next morning, I asked Teacher Zhao for two hours off, I was worried that Zhang Tingting would lie to me, after breakfast, I followed Zhang Tingting all the way, until I saw her enter the school, I left with confidence.

When I went home in the evening, I went upstairs directly, and I didn't find Zhang Tingting upstairs, I was completely relieved, Tingting didn't lie to me, the reason why I couldn't find her was that she was at school.

Not long after, Zhang Tingting came back, and I happily made her something delicious, but she seemed to be in good spirits, and she looked haggard and ate a few things, so she put down her chopsticks.

I suspected she had a fever like last time, but I touched her forehead and the temperature was normal, and there was no sign of fever at all.

"Strange, you don't have a cold, why do you look so bad?" I muttered to myself.

"Brother Gao, you don't have to worry about me, it will be fine in a few days."

I nodded, stood up and put away the dishes and chopsticks, and Zhang Tingting turned upstairs.

Seeing her disappear, I went into the kitchen, turned on the faucet, and then I took out my phone and called Li Dongliang.

I went out in the morning and was fine, but when I came back in the evening, I looked haggard and looked very bad, I can almost conclude that something must have happened to Zhang Tingting in school, otherwise there would not have been such a big change.

The sound of the water overshadowed the sound of my call, the phone didn't ring a few times, Li Dongliang over there was connected, he didn't wait for me to speak, he spoke first, and said complainingly: "Senior brother, what happened yesterday, I didn't hear Zhang Tingting's voice, why did you hang up the phone?" ”

"What?" I was taken aback, I obviously used hands-free last night, and I didn't lower my voice in the conversation with Zhang Tingting, but why didn't Li Dongliang hear it?

Could it be that I remembered by mistake, in fact, I didn't turn on the hands-free last night?

However, these are not the key, the key is what Zhang Tingting encountered in school?

Thinking of this, I said: "Let's put aside last night's incident first, I want to ask you, Zhang Tingting went to school today, in the school, did anyone bully her?" ”

"She didn't go to school, where was someone bullying her? What's more, she is very popular in school, and she is beautiful, and there are more boys like me who have a crush on her, even if others want to bully her, we won't agree! ”

Listening to Li Dongliang's words, my hands trembled, Zhang Tingting didn't go to school, but I obviously saw her enter the school in the morning, is Li Dongliang lying?

But he didn't have to do this, so why bother doing it, it wouldn't do him any good.

Then what he said is true, Zhang Tingting did not go to school, she knew that I was following her, deliberately created a false impression, and when I walked away, she came out of the school again.

But why did she do it?

Hung up the phone silently, I didn't care about washing the dishes, I just wanted to ask Zhang Tingting to understand, where she went that day, why when she came back, her expression was so bad.

Walking up the stairs, I came to Zhang Tingting's door, her door was closed, I tried to push it, but the door did not move.

What was she doing hiding in alone, and why did she lock the door?

With doubts in my heart, I went downstairs lightly, found a wire downstairs, I aimed the wire at the keyhole, turned it a few times, the door made a "click" sound, and the lock was opened by me.

This is thanks to the fact that when I was in college, I was very playful and often played late at night with a few fox friends and dogs, and as a result, General Iron locked the door and we were locked out of the school.

It was too hard to climb the iron gate, and it would make a sound, so we thought of using wire to open the lock, and at first we didn't know the essentials, but after a long time, we naturally found some doorways.

For these old locks in the mansion, I have to open them, naturally without much effort.

I quietly opened the door a crack, then squinted my eyes and looked inside.

I saw Zhang Tingting's back, she was facing a small square table, and there was a frame on the small square table, and because it was too far away, I couldn't see the picture in the frame.

Zhang Tingting stood silently against the frame, looking at it, tears slowly slipped down her cheeks, after a while, she raised her hand to wipe away her tears, sighed faintly, and then I saw her take a stick of incense from the table, light the incense, and then she held the incense in both hands and worshiped the photo.

Who is the person in the frame, why does Zhang Tingting show a sad expression, is it her mother, but she has never heard of her mother having an accident?

Who, exactly, is that?

I just felt that there were too many mysteries on Zhang Tingting's, and in order to solve these mysteries, I turned away and came downstairs.

In the kitchen, I deliberately screamed and slammed a bowl on the floor.

The movement was so loud that it startled Zhang Tingting, I heard her hurried footsteps, and soon, she appeared in front of me.

"What's wrong with you! Yes! Your fingers are bleeding so much, don't move, I'll go to Aunt Liu to see if she has any blue potion, gauze or anything like that. ”

Zhang Tingting looked panicked, there were tears flashing in her bright big eyes, she didn't stop for the slightest, and walked out like a gust of wind, and outside, the night covered the earth.

There isn't much time for me, and I have to see who is in the frame before Zhang Tingting comes back.

I broke the bowl myself, and I cut my finger myself, and it looked like it was bleeding a lot, and it seemed to be badly wounded, but only I knew that it was just a small wound.

Wrap my bleeding finger inside my clothes and not let it drip a drop of blood on the stairs, because it would reveal my whereabouts and let Zhang Tingting know that I had gone upstairs and entered her room during the short period of her absence.

ran upstairs in one breath, as I expected, hearing the movement below me, Zhang Tingting didn't even have time to close the door, so she went downstairs directly.

Without a pause, I ran into her room.

In the room, a small square table quietly placed a mirror frame, and in the frame, there was a girl in a white T-shirt, squatting next to an orchid.

She smiled and posed with a scissor hand, the sun shining on her face, and she smiled brightly and beautifully.

But when I saw her, my face turned pale, my fingers trembled, and I staggered back involuntarily, until my back hit the wall, and I stopped.

The girl in the photo is none other than Zhang Tingting, who is worshipping herself.

I went downstairs in despair, and as soon as I sat down in the living room, Zhang Tingting ran in from outside the door, and she saw that my face was as white as paper, and she didn't suspect it, thinking that it was because I had lost too much blood.

I washed my wounds, applied blue potion, and finally wrapped my injured finger in a thick layer of gauze, which she wrapped very carefully and gently, as if she would hurt me with a little more force.

"Why are you so careless that you can even hurt your fingers while washing dishes?"

I looked at Zhang Tingting with complicated eyes, and stopped talking, she lowered her head, not noticing my strangeness.

Lying on it, I couldn't fall asleep over and over, I couldn't understand why Zhang Tingting worshiped herself, so I sat up, leaned back on my head, and was quietly in a daze.

After some time, I suddenly heard the door of the next room open, followed by a sound of footsteps.

I looked down at the time, 12 midnight, the most atmospheric time of the day.

Zhang Tingting went out at this time, what did she want to do?

I got up from the top and quietly opened the door, only to see Zhang Tingting wearing pajamas, and the whole person seemed to be sleepwalking, walking towards the bathroom in a trance.

Probably go to the bathroom for a break! I thought to myself, and I didn't care, I was about to close the door, when I suddenly heard the sound of water in the bathroom, sparse, sparse, if you don't pay attention, you really can't hear it.

Didn't she take a bath, and she still put water at this time, did she want to wash it a second time?

She wouldn't really be sleepwalking, and if so, in case she bumped into it, or did something self-harming, then ......

Thinking of this, I hurriedly followed, came to the bathroom, I found that the bathroom door was not closed, gently opened a slit, and my eyes looked inside.
