I don't know how he could say this, but he was still very proud: "That's, I'm so good, who doesn't hurt me!" ”

"Xiaobao also loves her mother." Xiaobao crawled from Qiu Shishi's arms, took a sip of me, and then climbed back to sit down.

Qiu Shiren smiled lightly and rubbed Xiaobao's hair, I looked at the itchy hands, grabbed the black egg, and stroked a handful of hair, it felt very good.

……

Xia Zuo, who came to pick me up, sent me to my place first.

When I got out of the car, I handed the jade bead containing Shu'er to Qiu Shishi, and asked by the way, "Why do you keep keeping it by my side?" ”

"You...... The physique is yin, it is more beneficial for her to follow you, follow me, hehe, it will probably dissipate faster. ”

Thinking of his scorching yang energy, I nodded knowingly.

Qiu Shiren took the jade bead and threw it to Xia Zuo: "Xia Zuo will deal with it next." ”

I nodded, I couldn't find anything to say, so I could only wave to him and Xiaobao: "Then, I'm leaving?" ”

Xiaobao flattened his mouth and kept holding my hand, his eyes were wet, and his long black eyelashes were stained with moisture.

Hugging and kissing him for a while, answering him many conditions, how often will he definitely go to see him, and when he will take him to play, he will let go.

After a few more handfuls of black egg hair, I took one last look at the poet and repeated, "I, I'm leaving." ”

He nodded at me, and when I got out of the car, the car drove away without saying a word of goodbye to me.

I hummed, it was so ruthless and unjust.

When I finally got back to my nest, I called my mother and told her about my grandmother, who already knew about the murder and asked me if it didn't matter.

"Well, grandma may be healthier than you."

"I'm asking you!"

The smile froze, and I held my phone a little unsure of how to answer.

"Do you think I don't know if you don't tell anything to your family?"

"Mom......"

"Lan Lan," the old mother was seriously worried, "you said yourself, how much has happened to you since July?" Do you still want to tell me that it's all a coincidence? ”

"Maybe I've been unlucky this year, I keep encountering this kind of thing......"

"Banlan!"

I shut up, and my mother wanted to call me by name to show that she was angry.

"You're going to go home for me tomorrow, just your chicken nest, is it worth your treasure like this, go home and live, do you hear?"

Can you make my chicken nest for a lot of money if it is sold, my dear mother?

"Oh, no, Mom, I still have to go to work, it's far away from home."

"You've been fired a long time ago, when do you want to hide it? I'm angry when it comes to this, it's a blessing for my good daughter to be able to give them a job, and they dare to quit you and detain you on trumped-up charges, nemesis? Ha, you'd better go home and get a gram of me! ”

"Mom, don't talk nonsense like this." I was terrified to hear it.

"It's okay if you don't work, it's not that your family can't afford to support you, no matter how bad you are, you can go to your brother and sister to help, they are short of manpower, why use you to go out and see other people's faces."

Sitting on the carpet, listening to my mother's grievances for me, I am not unaggrieved, how good the family is, who doesn't want to go home, I still have the conditions at home.

But can I go back?

"That's it, you will come back to me tomorrow, if I can't wait for you, I will personally come to the door to arrest you, do you hear?"

"I hear you."

Just go home and take a look, stay for two days and then find a reason to come out, it should be ...... Nothing should happen, right?

Lying back on the carpet, sighing helplessly and tiredly.

When will this kind of day come to an end?

……

My mother is a dignified and elegant lady in the face of outsiders, and when she faces her own people, she is a normal ...... The spicy housewife, just look at my brother, it's completely inherited from her.

However, when outsiders also have the opportunity to see her pungency, that person is finished.

In my heart, she is a good mother, although the family has money and hired a servant, she will cook by herself when she is free, will take care of her husband and children herself, standing in the huge dining room at home, thinking that in the past, the family of five had a conversation and laughter to eat together, and my father said majestically that the food was not silent, and everyone did not speak, and he had more opinions, and he sulked alone, and asked me to coax him.

I have a happy home, I have never denied it, but I don't know who said that happiness will be overdrawn, once very happy, now how sad it will be.

"What are you doing standing stupidly, you haven't been home for too long, and you treat yourself as a guest?" My mother, who was carrying a pot of soup, put the pot on the table, came over and slapped me on the ass.

"The soup you boiled is so fragrant, I smelled it as soon as I entered the door." I hurriedly sat down, handed her the empty bowl on the table, and asked her to serve it to me.

All the pain is pressed in the bottom of my heart, I just hope that my family can be safe, even if I want to stay away from it from now on!

"How old are they?" My mother scolded while taking my bowl and serving me soup, "I really don't know how you take care of yourself outside, I haven't seen you for a long time, look at your skinny, this face is not good." Did you drink those red dates and ginger tea I gave you? Did the great aunt come on time? ”

"Mom, although my brother and father are not here, you can't just ask, you won't be ashamed?"

She put the bowl in front of me and slapped me on the head: "Shame on you, do you know that women are very important." ”

"I know, I ...... every month" is normal.

I froze, like, I haven't been to that in a long time, since July.

"What?"

"It's normal, it's all normal." I tried not to change my face and lie.

Mom gave me a blank look.

Daddy came back in the evening.

Dad is a dignified middle-aged man who gives orders all year round, giving him a poker face and looking hard to please, but even so, he is a mature man full of charm.

He was a decade older than my mother, and my mother was his second wife, the first of whom died early due to illness, leaving only one daughter, my sister.

"Don't go out again when you come back," Dad and Mom agreed, his face was solemn, and he didn't allow anyone to say no to him, "It's just right, your marriage date with Yin Yan should also be set." ”

I listened to his lectures and ate without fear, my father was a paper tiger to me.

But when it came to this, my hand with chopsticks stopped in the air, and then slowly put it down: "Dad, this matter is not in a hurry." ”

"What's not in a hurry, it should have been booked on July 15, I sent the invitation, the Yin family's venue is ready, what about you, cancel it if you say it's canceled, and go abroad."

At that time, I was afraid that my parents would be worried, so my brother said that I went abroad for the seven days I disappeared, and no matter how my brother checked, he couldn't find out where I went in those seven days.

As for the cancellation of the engagement, I was absent for no reason that day, and Yin Yan helped me find an excuse, saying that the two of us had a quarrel and the engagement was delayed.

Two juniors, one did not attend, and the other made a delayed decision, and the elders could only comply.

I grew up with Yin Xiang since I was a child, and both families decided that we would be together, so even if the engagement was like child's play, no one would think that I was really separated from Yin Xiang.

The truth is that he and I may really be separated in this life.

Poking the rice with chopsticks, I said, "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, and he is not in a hurry." ”

"You're talking." Dad reprimanded me with a straight face, "Look at you, who made you hold chopsticks like this, and the etiquette you learned when you were a child has been returned?" ”

I deliberately poked it a few more times to show him.

"You ......"

The phone rang, I made a temporary truce gesture to my dad, took out the phone, ran to the living room to pick it up, and heard my dad complain behind me: "Look at your pet for her." ”

"Oh, is it just me who is spoiled, who is afraid that she will suffer and urge me to give her more money?"

I laughed, walked to the living room, and when I saw the caller ID, the corners of my mouth were pursed again.

Ban Zhi, my half-sister...... Well, I'll admit that my dad is a wonder in the world of names!

Looking at the name on the phone screen, I hesitated, and when I wanted to pick it up, the ringtone stopped because it was too long.

When I sighed and was about to put my phone back in my pocket, it rang again, and when I saw it, it was still my sister.

My sister hasn't called me since that incident, and now I'm calling twice in a row, so I think it's urgent.

This time I picked it up quickly, but after putting the phone to my ear, I was a little intimidated: "...... Feed? ”

"Ban Lan, Ban Lan," my sister's voice sounded anxious and tired, "something happened to your brother." ”

"What did you say?" I exclaimed, thinking that my parents were still in the restaurant, so I hurriedly covered my mouth and whispered, "What's wrong, what's wrong with my brother?" ”

"I don't know how to say the specifics, I really can't help it, and I don't dare to tell my dad and aunt, I can only ask you to see if you have a way."

"What the hell is going on?"

"Your brother...... He's evil! ”

“……”

After a while, after the phone hung up, I wiped my palm on my trouser leg, took a deep breath, pretended to go back to the restaurant as if nothing happened, and said first without giving my parents a chance to ask: "That, it was my sister who called me, saying that they really lack manpower over there, and asked me to go over to help them immediately, and I will go in a while." ”

"Should you be in such a hurry?" My mother glared at me coquettishly, "You want to find an excuse to slip away again, right?" What time is it, and if you want to go, you have to go tomorrow. ”

"What a slip, this is a serious matter." "Look, didn't you say it, either stay at home or go to help my brothers and sisters, I'm listening to you." Besides, my sister has already booked a ticket for me, don't worry, they will pick me up as soon as I get off the plane, you don't believe you call to ask. ”

I hurriedly finished the meal: "Okay, I'll pack my luggage and go, Mom and Dad, you eat slowly." ”

Seeing that the two of them were glaring at me angrily, I turned around and thought about it, ran back again, hugged my father, forcibly kissed him on the face, and then pounced on my mother, and gave her a mouthful, and got her fierce palm.

But finally, the two elders had smiles on their faces.

Carrying simple luggage, I walked out of the door of the house, and when I turned around, my parents were standing at the door watching, I waved my hand at them, suppressed the sourness in my heart, and turned to walk towards the driver's parked car.

I don't know when the next time I come back, it will be.

I closed my eyes and opened them again to make myself stronger, and the first priority was to make sure that my brother would come back safely.

Let's just say that something is wrong with him lately, that he has less contact with me, and that he obviously has something to hide from me.

I asked the driver to take me to Qiu Shishi's house, however, I knocked on the door for a long time and no one opened it, called him to remind him to turn off the phone, and now it's nine o'clock in the evening, where did he and Xiaobao go?

I called Yan Bin again and asked him if he knew the contact information of the special department, and he first asked me if I had encountered something again, and after I repeatedly assured me that I was fine, he gave me Xia You's phone number.

"Boss? He went on a mission, it was urgent, and he left last night. What's the matter, Xiao Lanlan, you can tell me anything, click. "The voice in the back is the voice of her eating.

After thinking about it, I told her about my brother again.

Ban Zhi only told me a little bit, it was really inconvenient on the phone, and I could guess from those messages that things were not simple, I had to think that the "trouble" had already found my brother, and I couldn't solve it on my own, and Qiu Shishi was not there.

I just thought, the people in the special department are originally specialized in dealing with this kind of weird case, they may really be able to help, isn't Xia Zuo and Xia Right also very powerful?

"Hmm," Xia You groaned, "Xiao Zuo and I have had something to do recently, so let's do it, you give me your brother's address, and someone will help you." ”

"Really? Thank you then. ”

"What's polite, I can't let you have something to do, otherwise the boss will come back and find out, and he will definitely exploit my snacks."

This foodie!

"Who's that guy helping me?"

"Well, you'll know then."

After hanging up the phone, I sighed helplessly, it seemed that I had to go to M City by myself.

M City, a border area between my country and other countries, which is rich in jade, my family has a mine there, which has been passed down by my ancestors, but recently, that area is very chaotic, it was originally my sister who was responsible, my brother urgently went to help, until now, the two have not returned.

The ticket at 11 o'clock is a little faster to the city of M.

When I got on the plane, I held the only half of the jade bottle I had left, and I didn't know how long I could last.

I took a nap on the way, dreamed about what happened on the day of the family gathering on July 13th, and I heard a conversation between my crying sister and my fiancé Yin Yu outside the bathroom......

The weightlessness woke me up to find that the plane had already begun to land.

After getting out of the passage and taking my luggage, I met my sister who came to pick me up in person.

She is still the one who dresses neatly and fashionably, heroic and feminine, and is the Ban Zhi that many men want to pursue and conquer.

In my memory, my sister is a very generous and atmospheric woman, smart, and very good at everything, I have regarded her as my idol since I was a child, and I think she is more dazzling and beautiful than those big stars.

I haven't seen her for a long time, she looks a little thin, and she can't see her face with light makeup, but her eyebrows are full of exhaustion.

The two were relatively silent, and after a while, my sister took the initiative to break this embarrassment and came over to pick up my luggage more naturally: "Coming?" Let's go back to where we live. ”

I nodded, not letting her touch my luggage: "I'll do it myself, I've grown up." ”

She smiled, "yes." ”

She looked behind me: "Didn't you say that you invited a master to come over, why didn't you see it?" ”

"Well, the master is a little mysterious, I have already given her the address, and I will come over in the next two days."

"Okay then."

The two resumed their silence and walked out side by side, arm to arm, a man's distance from each other.

I couldn't get too close to her, not just because it happened, but because of the indescribable fear that as soon as she got too close to me, my heart immediately tightened and palpitated.

Including Yin Yan, so did I repeatedly avoid his approach.

It's like they're holding butcher's knives and coming at me.

I asked the psychiatrist and she said it could be the after-effects of trauma.

Ban Zhi didn't have to be close to me, maybe, she also felt that keeping a certain distance from me would be good for each other.

We have a house in M city, a set in the city center, and a set in the suburbs near the mine, a three-story ordinary villa with a front yard, mainly close to the mine, convenient mining, workers occasionally come here to rest, anyway, this villa is an ordinary decoration, there are no important items in it, there are a lot of rooms, when it was built, it was considered that many people may come to live.

But listen to my sister, there is no one else in the villa, Ban Zhi temporarily forbade the workers to come to the villa because of her brother's affairs, they have a special dormitory for workers.

The car was driving in the night, and it was almost two o'clock now.

It stands to reason that at this point in time, it is very dangerous for me, the chance of hitting a ghost is 100%, I can walk from the airport, so far I haven't seen a single Ah Piao, I dare to look out the window, it is so quiet outside that I can hardly see other vehicles, and there is no ...... Other geistes.

What's going on, M City has been in chaos recently, and there have been terrorist attacks, normally, there should be a lot of geists here, why haven't you seen any of them?

Abnormality is a demon, and my heart is even more uneasy.

The car was parked in the garage of the villa, and when I walked into the hall, I found the pancake sitting on the sofa with a frown, leaning against the back of the sofa with one hand pressed on the temple.

When I first saw Ban Zhi, I thought she was a little thin, but the most obvious thing about thinness was my brother, whose already three-dimensional facial features were more prominent, and the muscles on her arms were still there, but she didn't feel so strong, and her face was even worse, and there were black circles under her eyelids, which were slightly blue.

"Coming back?" He heard the voice, slowly opened his eyes, and became angry when he saw that it was me, "What are you doing here?" ”

Then he glared at my sister: "You told her?" ”

Ban Zhi walked over, poured a glass of water from the table and gave it to him, looking at him with worried eyes: "Isn't there anything I can't do." ”

"There's a way to find her?"

"But I don't know who to turn to!" Ban Zhi put one hand on the arm of the pan halberd, flashing with tears, "Panji, I am real, really ......"

Seeing his sister, who has always been strong, like this, Pan's face softened, but he still insisted: "In short, Ban Lan can't stay here." ”

"But this matter has something to do with her after all......

"Ban Zhi!" Panji shouted to stop Ban Zhi's words, but I already heard them.

was still standing idly waiting for them to fight for a result, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but take two steps forward: "What do you mean, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Panji's face was ugly: "What do you ask, book a ticket immediately, and go back immediately." ”

"I don't!" Throwing down my luggage, I sat down on the couch next to me, "I didn't plan to leave when I came." ”

"Ban Lan, now is not the time for you to be willful, and this is not the place for you to play!"

"Who's playing around? You still treat me as a child, in your heart, I've never been so ignorant, have I, I've never only known to play, right? "I've been holding back all the way, and I'm also on fire.

I especially remember that day, my sister cried and shouted at me: "Ban Lan, you were spoiled and grew up, you don't understand anything at all!" ”

What do I not understand? First, I didn't learn to eat, drink and have fun like a gangster, second, I didn't split my legs and play with other people's feelings, third, I didn't spend the family's money all the time, and fourth, the person who did the wrong thing was not me, why am I the one who is being criticized?

I know that my family loves me, including my more irritable brother, but from childhood to adulthood, they look at me closely, for fear that I will be hit by a car as soon as I go out, as if I will be hit by a car and killed, I can't wait to tie a rope to my body, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, there are people watching me every minute and every second.

After 18 years of struggle, I was finally able to go to a university and live in a dormitory by myself, and after I was finally free, I was an idiot all my life, and I used the four years of the most leisurely college to learn how people can survive.

In the end, they blamed me for being ignorant?

Blame me for messing around?

Blame me for not understanding anything?

Still thinking about being the first to push me away!

Is this protection?

"If you're really sensible, you should stay at home honestly!"

"If you call me a white lotus in a greenhouse again, I am happy, but you have to live desperately outside and suffer a lot?" After sneering, I looked at my sister with a little regret, and she awkwardly avoided my gaze.

I didn't want to break up the matter with my sister, everyone deliberately chose to avoid it, and now that I think about it, that incident hit me too hard, and I was blown up by my brother at one point.

My brother was also stunned, glanced at Ban Zhi, and was silent for a moment: "I didn't mean that...... Even if you stay here, you won't be able to solve the problem here. ”

"Who said I couldn't solve it." I snorted, "Isn't it just evil, isn't it possible to be haunted, I don't have much knowledge, the only thing I see a lot is ghosts!" ”

That's the big truth.

But my brother and sister obviously didn't believe it.

Panhalberd is really not in good spirits, not as energetic as before and has nowhere to put it, if it was to be put in the past, he just carried me up and threw it at the airport, maybe he would get on the plane with me, and he would come back after sending me to the door.

And now, after only a couple of arguments with me, he sat back on the couch and continued to rub his temples, looking uncomfortable.

I wanted to ask him what was wrong, but I couldn't ask because he looked so tired, why hadn't he gone to sleep yet?

Then the three of them sat in the living room until the clock struck three o'clock.

"When~~When~~When~~"
