Chapter 51: The Ballad
"How do you know that Yun Zhi disappeared when he saw that girl?" After dinner, when we sat in the car and were about to go to Shengping Building, Ling Kai suddenly asked me.
I replied truthfully, "The Xuanguang Mirror was given to me by Hua Yan when she left, and she said that it was a magic weapon that could see ......." ”
Unexpectedly, before I finished my sentence, he had already interrupted me coldly, "Where?" ”
"What?" I looked at him inexplicably, his face that had no smile seemed to have a layer of frost, and I repeated coldly, "Where is the Xuanguang Mirror?" ”
I was puzzled by the reason for his sudden change of face, but I still took out the bronze mirror from my bag and handed it to him.
He looked at the pattern on the surface of the bronze mirror, as if he thought of something, his face became more and more ugly, but he didn't say much, but casually put it in front of the front of the car, feeling very disgusted.
The car drove away, he didn't speak all the way, the atmosphere in the car was very condensed because of his emotional changes, and I was not in a good mood, let alone have no interest in talking, so the two of them were silent all the way.
More than an hour later, he parked the car at the entrance of the Shengping Building, it was nearly half past ten at this time, there was no one around, I looked up at the surrounding environment, the buildings within a radius of 100 miles were relatively low, and it seemed that the lonely Shengping Building in front of him stood out from the crowd, which was very different.
I seem to understand why it wasn't built near the busiest time square in the southern city, is it so convenient for them to do some stealing things?
"Let's go." Seeing me standing in front of the building in a daze, Ling Kai shouted in a deep voice as he passed by me.
I hurriedly followed his footsteps, watched him walk to the locked door on the first floor, stretched out his hand and swiped lightly, the blue light flashed in his palm, and the glass door opened in response, which felt very magical.
After entering the door, the sensor door automatically closed from behind, and I suppressed the tension in my heart and followed behind Ling Kai, the dark hall was filled with an extremely eerie cold silence, which made me tremble uncontrollably.
As if sensing my fear, Ling Kai, who was walking in front, paused slightly, looked back at me, did not speak, but stretched out his hand.
I looked at his hand and involuntarily reached out to hold him.
His hands were still as cold as jade, but the power gushing out of his palms always calmed my panicked heart, and we began to move on, and when we entered the elevator, he whispered to me, "Follow me, hear anything, and ignore what you see." ”
"Okay."
The elevator slowly ascended, and the automatic sensor light inside suddenly turned on, and the sudden light made my eyes very uncomfortable, so I had to close my eyes.
By the time I opened my eyes again, the elevator had stopped on the thirteenth floor.
"Will Yunzhi be here?" I watched the elevator door slowly open and a dark glass aisle appeared in front of me, and my mood became nervous again, and I asked him quietly.
"I'm not sure, but there should be an anomaly here." He pulled me out as he spoke, and I wasn't particularly scared with him, but I couldn't hide my nervousness, and the sound of my heartbeat was so clear that it was coming to my eardrums, and it seemed to jump out of my chest at any moment.
Through a small glass aisle, then into a very empty office area, through the night light outside the glass window, I vaguely distinguish the sign hanging outside the glass door "Zhiyuan Technology Company" several bronzing characters, although I have not dealt with this company before, but I have also heard its name, the signboard is louder because in the past two years designed a mobile game is very popular with white-collar workers, so even I, a person who does not like to play games, has heard its name.
Ling Kai stopped in front of the locked glass door, he let go of my hand, and his hands began to seal.
I didn't know if he was looking for clues through spells or something else, so I stood quietly behind him and waited for him.
This process is actually not long, but for me at this moment, it is very long and difficult, one is worried about the safety of Yun Zhi, and the other is worried about the safety of Hua Yan, these two people are different from Ma Ziqing and Guo Lin, one of them is my nominal brother, and the other is my best friend, if something happens to the two of them, I will be difficult to forgive myself in this life.
When I was thinking like this, a ballad suddenly appeared in my ears, there was no music, only a child was softly singing, "You shoot one, I shoot one, and the yellow finch falls on the west side of the gate." You shoot two, I shoot two, and the magpie falls outside the gate ....... ”
I was stunned and looked around in surprise, there was no one in the dark space, but the sound was still clearly entering the eardrums, like the music played on the radio in the shopping mall, like a shadow, no matter where you are in the mall, you can hear it clearly.
In such a space as silent as death and as dark as ink, anyone would be creepy when such a children's song suddenly appeared.
I couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Ling Kai......." "However, when I turned around, my whole body felt as if I had been doused with cold water, and I was stiff without a trace of heat.
The glass door is still there, still locked. The gold lacquer signboard next to it is still there, and the handwriting of "Zhiyuan Technology Company" is still clear. However, Ling Kai, who was clearly standing three steps away in front of me, was gone, as if he had disappeared out of thin air, or had evaporated from the world, and only my breath could be heard in all directions, as well as the heartbeat in his chest like a thunderous drum, and nothing else.
How can it be? How could it disappear?
I couldn't believe my eyes, and hurriedly reached out to rub them, but I rubbed my eyes and didn't see Ling Kai's figure anymore, he really seemed to have evaporated.
If someone else told me such an unbelievable thing, I would never believe it.
But tonight, at this time, I can't help but believe it.
I stood there dumbfounded, almost mentally retarded thinking that Ling Kai would not abandon me, he must have encountered something, so he would definitely come back to me, I don't have to scare myself.
Even though I thought so, my body still trembled uncontrollably, like a fallen leaf constantly drifting in the autumn wind, not knowing where to float or when it would land.
Time passed minute by minute, and the song in my ears continued: You shoot one, I shoot one, and the yellow finch falls on the west side of the gate. You shoot two, I shoot two, and the magpie falls outside the gate. You shoot three, I shoot three, and the eagle flies to Mount Emei. You shoot four, I shoot four, and four students write big characters. You shoot five, I shoot five, five guys fight tigers. You shoot six, I shoot six, six bowls of buns and six bowls of meat. You shoot seven, I shoot seven, and seven girls catch cocks. You shoot eight, I shoot eight, eight people and eight horses go forward to kill. You shoot nine, I shoot nine, nine arms and nine hands. You shoot ten, I shoot ten, ten children go to the market......
After it finished singing, it began to repeat, repeat over and over again, and I was numb at that time, like a sculpture pestle in place, calling the name of "Ling Kai" countless times in my heart, longing for him to miraculously appear in front of me, just like every time before.
