Chapter 4: Escape
The alley is like a giant mouth, and it is impossible to get out after entering, and it is like a horror house, winding and twisting, and I don't know what ghosts will come out to scary.
The pitch-black chasers, the sound of stepping footsteps, Song Qingci helped Jiangxi to rush forward. Walk around one house after another, until you reach the big stone slab at the end. There is a dirty pool next to it, surrounded by a stone railing. They have no way out, do they have to jump into the water?
"Quickβcatch up with them. They can't run far......" The footsteps behind them were much louder, and I am afraid that it will not be long before they appear behind them.
"What do we do now...... What should I do......" Song Qingzi was anxious like an ant on a hot pot. The sweat on her forehead wet her sideburns and ran down her clothes. In less than a minute, most of her clothes were soaking wet.
Jiangxi Mu finally calmed his fear of the darkness and stood still, his cold eyes rolling around, as if he was trying to find some way out.
The voices are getting louder and louder, and it seems that they are about to turn the corner ahead!
Song Qingci swallowed her saliva, she had never encountered such a thing, and she was at a loss and didn't know what to do?
Jiangxi Mu glanced at the nervous Song Qingci, and chose the second method to avoid the pursuit for the time being. If he was the only one, then these two people would have been crippled a long time ago, so why should they come to this predicament.
Jiangxi Mu vigorously pushed open the door of a house next to the stone slab, which turned out to be hidden. An old man was met at the door, and he was stunned, looking at the stranger who had suddenly entered.
"Don't speak!" Jiangxi Muna's cold command was unquestionable. He beckoned, Song Qingci was still hesitant whether it was too contrary to his conscience, he grabbed her arm and stuffed it into the door. Then, he picked up a stone and threw it into the water, and then slammed the door shut.
It was at this time that there was a commotion outside the doorβ
"What about people? Where did you go? There is no road here at all! β
"There's a splash in the water, it's time to swim away. I can't stand this dirty water. β
"Why is there so much nonsense, damn it, let's chase it-"
Jiang Xi Mu leaned against the door, one leg on the other, and didn't seem to care. But Song Qingci was so nervous that his heart was about to jump to his throat.
The sound outside grew quieter and quieter until there was no more. The two thugs were already far away.
Song Qingci finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the small bench, panting.
The old man on the side seemed to see the reason, "Are you being followed?" β
"yes, we've been chased all the way, it's just- there's really no way around. We just came in and took shelter. Song Qingci hurriedly explained, his face was crimson, half of shame and half of gratitude, "Thank you very much." β
"Speaking of which, you better take him to the hospital." The old man pointed to Jiangxi Mu's arm and said eagerly.
Jiangxi Mu glanced at the blood on his left arm lightly and shrugged, "No." β
"How can you not use it?" Song Qingci was very anxious. The blood on his arm was blurred, mixed with glass slag, red with a hint of green, and it was very shivering when mixed together.
"The hospital is nearby, I'll take you out of this alley, so it's closer to the hospital." The old man said.
"No, you don't." Jiangxi Mu's face was still resolute. He leaned against the door, so light on the injury. The blood on his left hand was like a medal, which was awarded for his honor, but he didn't care about this honor. The evening breeze blew through his hair, and what never changed was his indifferent expression.
Looking at his resolute expression, Song Qingci swallowed the words he was about to persuade. The eyes full of emotion were full of worry, but there was nothing to be done
The old man thought of a compromise: "Otherwise, I'll take a cloth and bandage him first." β
Song Qingci looked at the enthusiastic person in front of him. He was about 50 years old, with half-white hair, and wore a white tank top and large trousers. When he went back to the house to get his medicine, he limped and apparently had a problem with his right foot.
He came out with strips of cloth and liquor. He tied a strip of cloth to the top of Jiangxi Mu's left arm to stop the bleeding. After that, a cloth dipped in white wine wiped the broken glass residue from the wound. "If you endure it, it will hurt."
Jiangxi Mu nodded, turned his head and did not speak.
In this primitive way, Song Qingci almost didn't dare to look at it directly. When I think of that hot pain, I can't help but tremble. It's like in an anti-Japanese war movie, and digging up bullets while drinking is the same concept. I don't dare to think about it.
Jiangxi Mu was surprisingly calm, the spicy smell of the liquor stained the wound, he just gritted his teeth and didn't say a word, and his hands didn't tremble, letting the old man get the glass slag on it out. The slightly frowning Sichuan eyebrows added another forbearance to the cold face.
The old man has been cleaning up very carefully, but he has made himself sweat profusely. One of the glass slags was so deep that it had to be clamped up with tweezers.
After cleaning up, the old man wiped the sweat on his head, "I want to ask you, why did you get injured like this, and what is the person chasing you." β
"I don't know." Song Qingci thought about the scene at that time, those strange people threw wine bottles at them, and then chased them desperately, feeling still afraid, I really don't know what will happen if I am chased. There are also those individuals who say that they know Jiangxi Mu because they have a festival with their Dongge.
How could Jiangxi Mu get into trouble with these people? I felt trembling when I thought about it.
"You'd better go to the hospital and be careful of infection." The old man persuaded.
Song Qingci said gratefully: "Haven't asked grandpa your name yet?" Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we might ......."
"I, I'm just a security guard in the Academy." The old man waved his hand.
When Song Qingci heard that it was from the academy, he was a little excited: "We are students of the Academy, why haven't we seen you." β
The old man smiled, "I am the security guard of the gymnasium in the teacher's college, and there are many school security guards, how can I have seen them all." β
After saying goodbye to the old man, the two walked in the alley. Although there is no thrilling tracking, this dark alley still makes people feel scared. The mossy stone slabs stretched out to the front, sticking out of the trunks leading to other roads, and the quiet atmosphere was not eerie.
It's normal to get lost here, and the two of them go around and around and encounter many dead ends. It took about 20 minutes to appear opposite the entrance of the Normal Academy.
It's a good feeling to be reborn after a catastrophe.
"Let's go to the hospital." Song Qingci looked at his left hand, bloody and dazzling.
Jiangxi Mu decisively refused, but put forward a new suggestion: "Do you have a medical book with the school?" You can go there and see it. β
"Huh?" Song Qingci covered her mouth, very surprised. She really felt that Jiangxi Mu was so strange, the hospital had such good conditions not to go, so she had to use liquor to remove glass slag and receive treatment in the school's medical center. She couldn't help but ask why.
Jiangxi Mu turned his face sideways, and the shadows were full of ruthlessness, "I just don't want to use my ID card, just to be safe." β
Song Qingzi was even more puzzled, "Don't you have it?" Or is it lost? β
"It'sβlost." Jiangxi Mu walked in the direction of the campus and said perfunctorily.
Song Qingci caught up and asked the question in one go: "Also, those gangsters know you, is this true?" You have a pistol, is this also true? β
"You don't have to believe their words." Jiangxi Mu Leng snorted: "I have nothing to do with those scum. β
In this case, Song Qingci is still very puzzled. Jiangxi Mu clearly did not answer these questions, and even concealed many things.
Jiangxi Mu in front of him, who is it!
Song Qingci had a cold war - could it be that he was related to those gangsters and came to study for refuge? Cold sweat crept up her forehead.
But she denied her thoughts. If you are a gangster, how can you get into school? Obviously, Jiangxi Mu's temperament is very different from those gangsters. I've never seen anything happen to him at school, and his expression and behavior are just strange. Nature should not be bad.
The medical center of the Normal Hospital was more than 100 meters away from the school gate, and it was already 9:20 at that time, close to the time when the doctor got off work. When the two entered the doctor's office, the doctor was startled. "Your hand hurts so badly, what's the matter?"
Jiang Xi Mu sat on the wooden bench and looked at the white room with an indifferent expression. When Song Qingci told about this incident, he was still very flustered.
The doctor frowned, "I suggest going to the people's hospital next to it." β
"I don't want to go." Jiangxi Mu half-closed his eyes and said.
"I can't handle such a serious injury." The doctor patiently explained: "If you go to the People's Hospital for treatment, you can be partially reimbursed for the money." β
"You can wrap gauze." Jiang Xi Mu glanced at his left hand, as if he had nothing to do with himself.
The doctor thought that this person was a strange person, and that some hospitals did not go to bandage here. He was also in a hurry to get off work, too lazy to be verbose, so he casually disinfected with alcohol, and bandaged it with gauze.
Song Qingci took out the medical book from his bag, and the doctor didn't want to ask "why doesn't he have a medical book", so he signed it directly. However, the doctor still reminded: "Remember to go to the People's Hospital for a check-up." β
Out of the medical center, Song Qingci followed behind Jiangxi Mu. She looked at Jiang Jiangmu, his body half in the light of the street lamp, half in the shadow of the shadows of the trees. No matter how you look at it, it's so mysterious, like the Sphinx's puzzle, how to solve it is wrong, because you don't know this person at all.
Tonight's events add another layer of mystery to him.
Jiangxi Mu, what kind of person is he?
When he arrived at the door of the dormitory, Jiangxi Mu said to Song Qingci: "You go back." β
Song Qingci nodded and walked in the direction of her dormitory. She turned around, thinking that Jiangxi Mu would say something thankful, but she did think too much. Jiang Jiang Mu walked into the door of the dormitory and didn't look back.
Tonight's events are so bizarre. Song Qingci couldn't help but shudder again, and clamped Betty's crossbody bag.
When Jiangxi Mu returned to the dormitory, the people in the room were stunned and hurriedly asked what was going on.
"Just a few thugs." Jiangxi Mu climbed into the bed and said coldly.
Seeing him so calm and calm, Wu Meng and Wangshugui had no choice but to shake their heads and did not say anything comforting. And Gao Taiyang, who was on his lower bunk, snorted coldly several times, very gloating.
Jiangxi Mu was on the top bunk, taking his ID card and looking at it. He has two ID cards, one is Singaporean, named Zhang Qifu, and the other is a mainland ID card, but the name on the identity is written - Jiangcheng, and even the avatar is very vague.
He frowned and put his ID away. Absolutely not to use unless absolutely necessary!
