After a long time, Editor Xu sighed deeply, then raised his head and said, "Deal." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Liu Xiaowei excitedly grabbed my hand directly under the table, my spirit suddenly went into shock, and quickly regained consciousness, my hand struggled a few times, Liu Xiaowei did not let go, in order not to let Editor Xu find out, I still gave up struggling.

In fact, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but Editor Xu's reaction just now aroused my curiosity, in fact, I can see that at the beginning, Editor Xu was happy that she had received the news, but then her series of expressions seemed to tell that she was a little difficult, but her eyes did not raise to look at me at that time, and I couldn't read her heart.

"Editor Xu, can you tell us what you saw that night now?" I asked.

Editor Xu took a deep breath and slowly began to tell after a while.

It turned out that Editor Xu went downstairs immediately after receiving a call from someone else that day, but before he reached the bottom of the building, he saw a few rats scurrying around.

Editor Xu told us with certainty that there were usually no rats in the place where she lived, so the sight of rats in the corridor that day really scared her.

After going downstairs, she didn't even go far, but she saw a large group of rats around the trash can next to the entrance of the stairway, which was half the size of the rats that could be seen in the usual way, and they were eating something bloody around the trash can.

"What flesh and blood can be around the trash can?" I don't understand a little, in my understanding, there should be only garbage in the trash can, or did those rats catch something and drag it next to the trash can?

"No, the flesh and blood blur is not in the trash can, at first I thought that someone's stored meat was broken and thrown out, because it was basically unclear when it was dark, but the next day I heard the news that many cats here were missing......" Editor Xu stopped at this point, she seemed to be thinking about something.

I have to say that this editor Xu's reaction is indeed much sharper than that of ordinary people, just by this contact, she knows that I have a strong ability to observe words and feelings, so that now she will not look at me whether she is talking or thinking about things.

Maybe she didn't mean to hide anything from me, but it was just a kind of human instinct for self-preservation, which everyone has, but hers was much stronger.

I suddenly became more curious, if the disappearance of the cat had something to do with these mice, then shouldn't Editor Xu continue to track the incident the next day, which is today? Why is there no follow-up?

As if sensing my doubts, Editor Xu gently took out the newspaper she was reading just now and put it in front of my eyes, pointed to one of the passages about food and said, "Actually, this was supposed to be a follow-up to the rat incident, but under pressure, I had to stop." ”

"Pressure?" I don't understand.

"Yes, pressure." Editor Xu's eyes were a little gloomy when he said this, and after a pause, Editor Xu continued: "Regarding the news of the previous mouse, in fact, you may not know that the sensation caused is far from being as simple as you imagined, it has already caused panic among the residents, haven't you noticed that there are fewer people going out in the past two days?" ”

It occurred to me that this was indeed the case, even the place where we went to eat, the restaurant where there were usually a lot of people, there was no one today, this is the weirdest place, I didn't even take it seriously!

"So that's why your expression fluctuated so much when you got our news just now? Actually, you were very happy, but you were thinking about what the consequences would be if this report came out? I asked.

Editor Xu nodded silently, and then continued: "Actually, that report has passed, after all, rats are rats, and they can't see much during the day, just pay attention to them when you travel at night, but now I suddenly feel a little panicked, if what you said is true, can it be considered that rats have begun to attack people?" ”

Editor Xu's worries are not groundless, I had already thought of this when she said that this incident had caused a very serious panic just now, and it was indeed a bit serious.

And it seems that this thing, which had nothing to do with me in the first place, and I was just trying to satisfy Qin Xin's curiosity, unconsciously became something I had to do.

"Could you please tell us a little bit more about what you know?" I've gone from being relaxed and indifferent at the beginning to being serious and serious now.

Editor Xu shook her head and said that this is all she knows, if we really want to know what happened, we can choose to come out at night to take a look, if the severity of the matter really does not reduce but worsens, then those rats will definitely come out again at night.

This conjecture is not unreasonable, since these rats cannot be seen during the day, then they must have moved at night, perhaps alone, perhaps in groups, in short, they must have had time for their own activities.

I nodded, and walked out of the café with Liu Xiaowei, standing in the evening breeze, I suddenly felt a little itchy on my forehead, and was about to raise my hand to scratch it, but found that Liu Xiaowei was still holding my hand, it turned out that in that period of time just now, I was used to Liu Xiaowei grabbing me like this.

"Beauty, our hands...... Can you let go? "I don't know what kind of tone to use to communicate with Liu Xiaowei in this situation, and even when I finally decided to use a statement that sounded more inclined to joke, I couldn't even laugh when I said it, and the heaviness in my heart unconsciously traveled all over my body.

Liu Xiaowei also seemed to feel the depression in the air, she quietly let go of her hand, and didn't say a word superfluous.

On the way back, Liu Xiaowei has been sitting in the co-pilot and looking ahead with a dull gaze, I can see from her eyes that Liu Xiaowei has some thoughts that want to retreat, I don't know whether I should persuade her to continue to maintain her original curiosity now or persuade her to pack her luggage and go back as soon as possible, just turned her head slightly and said, "Think about it, and discuss it with them after you go home." ”

Liu Xiaowei nodded, her eyes were extremely blank......
