Chapter 243: The Dilapidated Building
Maybe seeing that I was a little depressed, Bai Yi said to me again.
"What's in the house? Do you have to go past in the middle of the night? ”
"What's in there, you know better than I do, don't you?" I replied with my eyes closed in the passenger seat.
I haven't been back to the room where Xi Jing and I used to live, but Professor Chen and the others thought that Xi Jing would go back, and they monitored and squatted there for a long time.
Therefore, Bai Yi may be really more familiar with the layout of that room than me.
"We are pressed for time now, we don't have time to waste on your children's affairs, and to tell you the truth, there are no useful clues in that room, and besides, after she left, she never went back, and our people have been there for two years, and nothing has been found, and it seems to be demolished recently."
"Demolition?" I listened to a puff of words, "Why do you want to demolish it?" What is the value of development in that place? ”
"Some southerners took a fancy to the environment there and wanted to build a resort, and the local government sold the land"
"Fuck," I scolded in a low voice, "These miscellaneous people don't have any other skills, but their ability to sell land to make money is not small!" ”
The house where Xi Jing and I used to live was not in the city, but in the suburbs, which was more than an hour's drive from the city.
Because it is far away from the city, the air here is very good, and Xi Jing and I lived in a small four-story building here at the time.
The four-storey building is the tallest building here.
"How did you end up living here?" Bai Yi asked me again while driving.
"It's so inconvenient that this place is far away from the city, and you're going to college."
Hearing Bai Yi ask like this, a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of my mouth.
"Yes, at that time, I could only go back here on weekends, and I had to take a long-distance bus for more than an hour every time, but who cares about these things, it is worth it to meet people who are thinking about it for a long time, and to relieve the pain of not thinking about it."
Maybe what I said was a little too numb, but I saw Bai Yi's body shake, and even the body shook violently.
"Eldest sister, drive well" The sudden shaking of the body really shocked me into a cold sweat, and I hurriedly said to Bai Yi.
Bai Yi didn't pay attention to me, and he didn't speak again, and the two drove silently all the way towards their destination
Nothing to say all the way
Soon, Bai Yi drove to the destination.
It was midnight, and the modified Land Rover lights shone on the ground, reflecting a strange whiteness, probably because I had watched too many horror movies, and I was always worried that there would suddenly be something terrible with bloody flesh and blue fangs on the road under the white lights.
The four-story building was built between a low bungalow, and the road leading to the small building was not smooth and a little narrow, so Bai Yi had to slow down, and the car slowly drove towards the small building surrounded by the bungalows with the headlights swinging left and right.
After a jolting and shaking, the car finally stopped in front of the small building, and the hernia headlights at the front of the car shone on the building, reflecting a big word split.
"Here we are." Bai Yi said to me as she opened the door and got out of the car.
I reached out and grabbed her.
"Wait, something is wrong?"
When Bai Yi heard this, he stopped opening the door.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”
"It's so quiet that there's no dog barking," I said, wrinkling my eyebrows.
"Dog barking?" Bai Yi was stunned when he heard this, and after listening to it, he said to me.
"Why do you have a dog barking? I don't think I've ever heard a dog barking in my image here. ”
I listened to the eyes narrowed, "We are now in the suburbs and countryside, the people here all rely on raising dogs to prevent theft, when Xi Jing and I lived here, almost every bungalow in this area had dogs, if there was a little movement in the middle of the night, the big and small dogs would bark, but now you listen to our car all the way, there is no sound around the quiet is not too abnormal"
"What then?" Bai Yi frowned and looked out the car window and spoke.
"Are you still going up?"
"Of course, I have to go up and tell you the truth, I now think that the reason why she left back then must not be simple, maybe she will leave a clue about where she went here. The reason why I came in a hurry was to find out. ”
As I said to Bai Yi, I pulled out the Tang knife from the underground general's mansion from behind me.
This Tang knife was originally a long and a short male and female double knife, exquisite workmanship, extremely sharp, both are rare divine sharp blades.
The long knife has always been in my hand, and the short knife was lost by Chen Hudan in the Taiji Palace, and I have always felt distressed about it
"Let's go, go down and have a look," I clenched the hilt of my knife and opened my mouth to Bai Yi.
Bai Yi glanced at the Tang knife in my hand, didn't say anything, and reached out to open the car door
After I got out of the car with Bai Yi, I raised my head and looked at the four-story building in front of me.
I don't know if it's because people are asleep in the middle of the night, or because the demolition residents have moved away.
There was not a single light in sight on the small building, and the whole building looked much more dilapidated than it had been when I had left a few years ago.
"I remember that there is a communication room at the door, and there are old couples on duty living in it, I wonder if Lu Dao is still there?"
As I walked towards the door of the only unit in the small building, I asked Bai Yi beside me in a low voice.
"It's gone, the man died of illness a year ago, and his wife took his ashes back to his ancestral home, and the other residents in this building have all received the demolition money and moved out, this is an empty building"
As she spoke, Bai Yi and I had already walked to the door of the unit, as she said, the two white solid wood unit doors in my impression were now only one that was still hanging obliquely on the door frame.
I flashed my flashlight inside, only to see that the communication room on the side was also broken and the door was broken, and the room was in a mess.
I frowned even more tightly, not because of anything else, but because I remembered the good of the old couple who used to live here, this old couple had no children and no daughters, when Xi Jing and I lived here before, they really treated us as their own children, and they made anything delicious and remembered to leave us a bowl
"Let's go." I sighed secretly and hurriedly said to Bai Yi, and as I spoke, I walked up the stairs.
The dilapidated communication room, the old couple who appeared in my mind, made my mood suddenly become very bad.
I had to flee from the dilapidated communication room while I could control my emotions, and I was afraid that if I stayed there any longer, I would not have the courage to go upstairs and face the room where I had lived with her
