Text Chapter 1 A text message
In Anhai City, it's night.
The night is like water, and the birch trees on both sides of the road are rustling and swaying in the cool breeze.
Guang Zhai staggered in the middle of the road, staggering, and the next second he seemed to be about to fall to the ground without being able to support it. I graduated in one year, and now as a junior at Anhai University, looking at the students and girls coming and going on the roadside, he has always been used to being alone, and he feels lonely.
Grandpa died when he was eight years old, only his hands were stained with blood in his memory, looking at his kind and slightly smiling grandfather lying quietly on the ground, his eyes were dull and confused, he didn't remember what happened at all, his mother held herself in her arms, kept stroking her hair and said: "Don't be afraid, Zhai'er, mom is here." It's okay. The father stood aside, looking at himself with gloomy eyes, as if he had seen some kind of monster. Since then, it seems that in my life, there is only my mother, and my father looks at me in silence forever. Didn't hug myself again. After that incident, the family left the village with the help of the villagers to complete the funeral of the old man.
His parents are in the business of collecting and reselling antiques, and his family is considered wealthy. Childhood experience made Guang Zhai dislike to communicate with people since he was a child, and his personality is closed and not good at words. At the age of seventeen, he has no friends of the opposite sex, and his roommates in the dormitory are just passers-by who live under the same roof as him, meeting and greeting each other, and there is no more intersection other than that.
I thought that I would not recall those dusty memories again, but my grandfather's face appeared again in my dream. Those black and white silent films, his hands were stained with blood, and his grandfather's quiet face woke him up from his sleep. He was not at a young and ignorant age, remembering his mother's murmuring and his father's gloomy eyes, he knew that his grandfather's death had something to do with him, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't remember what happened, and his mother never told him what happened back then.
When he woke up, he walked into the bathroom and turned on the faucet, rubbing his face with water in both hands, the cool ice water made his breathing stabilize, looking at the empty dormitory, thinking that the other three roommates were either going to the library to read books, do test questions, or were busy dating girls. Use a handkerchief to wipe off the water droplets on your face. So he went out to the roadside stall next to the school, drinking alone.
"Guang Zhai, why did you come out to drink alone, hey, a big smell of wine, it stinks to death. "I felt like I was slapped on the back, and I almost fell to the ground.
"Are you alright, I'm sorry... A girl with a ponytail covered her mouth in embarrassment and looked at Guang Zhai apologetically.
Guang Zhai came back to his senses and looked at the girl in front of him, as if he was thinking about who she was. For a long time, I didn't remember who the girl in front of me was, how could she know herself.
"You are?"
Seeing this boy who sleeps in class on weekdays, or is dull and in a daze, Shen Qing blushed a little and didn't know but was a little overwhelmed, and Guang Zhai usually didn't have any friends, basically didn't communicate and interact with people outside of class, and didn't participate in clubs much, no wonder he didn't have any impression of himself.
"We are in the same department, it's just that you are usually silent, so I didn't notice the classmates around you, by the way, my name is Shen Qing" Shen Qing stuck out his tongue mischievously.
Guang Zhai looked at the lively and lovely girl in front of him, his already scattered eyes became even more confused, and he shook his head, he usually had no friends, and he was suddenly slapped from behind, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he looked at Shen Qing like this.
Shen Qing looked at the boy in front of him, nearly one meter eight tall, with a refreshing face, and his eyes were blurred like a wang shui, staring at himself. She is usually good at talking, but she doesn't know how to speak. He actually looked at Guang Zhai a little blankly.
Guang Zhai saw Shen Qing looking at him in a daze, shook his head and said no more, and slowly walked back towards the dormitory.
Shen Qing saw that Guang Zhai left without replying or saying hello, a little faintly disappointed.
Forget it, he's a weirdo, and this girl won't bother with him, huh. The girl standing beside Shen Qing patted her on the shoulder, "Qingqing, what's the daze, let's go, I'll tell you, ignore that stuffy oil bottle, boring to death." Shen Qing came back to his senses and said, "Okay, we are originally from the same department, what's wrong with saying hello to him when we meet, besides, I haven't seen him talk to anyone for three years, and I don't even pay attention to people when I talk to him" Shen Qing was a little depressed. followed the girl next to me.
Shen Qing, who returned to the dormitory, was on the bed, thinking that this should be the first girl to talk to him in three years. In Anhai University, there are many talented people, and although their appearance is not ugly, they are not handsome and messy people. So no girl will take the initiative to greet herself, plus she sleeps in class, she basically doesn't show herself, and every exam is also a very ordinary score, so the teacher doesn't interfere too much with her sleeping in a daze.
"Didi", well, came back to his senses, and received a text message on his phone. "Go back quickly, there's an accident at home" Guang Zhai suddenly got up from the bed, it was a text message from his mother, why didn't he call himself? After hesitating for a long time, he pressed his father's phone, which also prompted that no one answered. Quickly stuffed a few changes of clothes into his bag, Guang Zhai took out his mobile phone and bought the fastest train ticket tonight on the app, and planned to go out.
At this time, Lin Feng, who happened to be in the dormitory, came back and saw Guang Zhai with a duffel bag on his back, "Are you going to class tomorrow?" Guang Zhai nodded, "I have something to go out." After speaking, he hurriedly went out. Lin Feng originally wanted to ask him where he was going, but before he could say anything, he saw that Guang Zhai had already left, and through the window, he saw Guang Zhai's figure slowly elongating and disappearing, and shook his head helplessly.
After leaving the school gate and seeing the figures around him, Guang Zhai hurriedly stopped a taxi, "Master, Anhai Station."
A black sedan followed the taxi at the school gate, and two men in black suits in the car took out their phones, "Master Zhang, that kid stopped the car and went out, should we continue to follow?"
"Follow him, don't let him find out, things can only be found by him for us, mistakes, you know what the consequences are. An old but powerful voice came from the other end of the line. The two men hurriedly said yes.
Guang Zhai called his mother's phone over and over again, but no one answered, what happened, his parents should have no enemies on weekdays, and the business they do is peer competition but there should be no danger. Confused, he kept thinking about it.
"Little brother, it's here. The driver saw that he had been on the phone since he got in the car, and then he was in a daze. I didn't come back to my senses when I arrived at the location. Guang Zhai took a piece of Grandpa Mao and gave it to the driver, saying that there was no need to look for it, so he hurriedly entered the station. The master shook his head and said, "Young people nowadays, are they so generous?"
The black sedan saw the taxi stop, and Guangzhai ran into the station.
"Brother Hai, what should we do? That kid has entered the station, how are we going to follow?" asked the shorter man in black.
"What's the panic, where else can he go to the station, he must be going home, let's go to the Pu'an City Railway Station to wait for him first, and then follow him, let's go." The square-faced man said calmly.
Guang Zhai felt that the time was so long, and when the train attendant reminded Pu'an City that it had arrived, please get off the train as soon as possible. Hurriedly got off the train.
Pu'an, I'm back.
Looking at this bright city, I walked for more than three years, but I never came back. His parents never urged him to go home, and he paid him living expenses on time during every holiday, and his mother often sent him pictures from the store, those antiques he received, and photos of his parents' life, and he basically took them with him at a glance. Store these photos in your phone entirely. By the way, my parents shouldn't be in the store at this point in time, so I'll go home and have a look first. Guang Zhai stopped the car and went to the happy community.
The happy community is still the same as before, and it has not changed much.
Old man Li saw Guang Zhai coming, "Hey, isn't this a child of the Guanghua family, aren't you still studying? Why did you come back, you kid hasn't seen you for more than three years, and you're so tall." ”
It turned out to be the old man Li who was the doorman of the community, and he remembered that this old man moved from his own house to this community, and he was okay. Always smiling.
"Uncle Li, I'll come back to see my parents. ”
Old man Li looked at Guang Zhai in confusion, "Your parents have rarely come back here recently, and my old man hasn't seen them come back for a week." ”
When Guang Zhai heard this, he was shocked in his heart, and he didn't care about answering, so he bypassed Old Man Li and ran home.
"Hey, you kid, what's the hurry, it's getting more and more rude, hey, by the way, I have your package here, which was sent by your parents some time ago. Hey?" Guang Zhai didn't hear what Old Man Li said at all, and had already run away. Old man Li shook his head, "Forget it, I'll send it to him later, this kid won't follow his father." ”
Guang Zhai entered the door, turned on the light in the living room, the living room was still so neat, threw the bag in his hand on the sofa, and shouted to the bedroom, "Mom, are you there?" There was no answer in the empty room. Pushed open the bedroom door, there was no one in the room, Guang Zhai had to take out his mobile phone and dial again, but there was still a beep sound, and no one answered. Guang Zhai walked on the sofa, quietly out of his mind, at this moment, he didn't know what to do?
"Knock knock", someone is knocking on the door? Could it be that my parents are back? Guang Zhai hurriedly opened the door, only to see that it was Old Man Li holding a package in his hand, a little disappointed.
"You kid ran so fast, na, this was sent back by your parents some time ago, with your name written on it, and I was still wondering why I didn't send it to your school, but it just so happened that you came back and gave it to you. ”
Took the package from Old Man Li's hand, "Thank you, I'm sorry to bother you," Guang Zhai replied distractedly.
Old man Li saw it, shook his head and said, "What are you in a hurry, your parents are not children, just now I saw you in a hurry and were still thinking about what happened?"
Guang Zhai looked at Old Man Li, and originally planned to tell him about the text message on his mobile phone, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it, "It's okay, then you go back first, I'll wait for them at home." ”
Old man Li didn't say much and went back.
Looking at the package in his hand, Guang Zhai quickly opened him, huh? This is it? It looks like a bronze utensil, there is a Taoist character on it, and there is a palace. And a cow? Why did my parents send it to me? Put it in the palm of his hand, not big or small, just enough to hold, and the cold touch passed into the palm of his hand, which made his anxious heart from the beginning slowly stabilize. Forget it, I didn't want to do this, so I put it in the pocket of my jacket and fell asleep on the sofa in a daze.
Blood! Why is there so much blood on his hands? Hey, how have his hands become smaller? The warm and sticky blood began to squirm in his hands, and there was a sharp pain in his head, ah, a scream came out of his mouth and his heart was broken, grandpa! How could it be grandpa, didn't grandpa pass away? I saw grandpa sitting on a chair waving to him, his face was still so kind, he stumbled to his feet, slowly walked towards grandpa, and rushed into grandpa's arms, grandpa, why are you here? Seeing that Grandpa didn't answer, well, how do you feel a little warm in your chest, blood! How can there be blood, didn't you just have it in your hand? Grandpa...
Huh? Guang Zhai, who suddenly woke up from his dream, only felt that his head was about to explode.
I looked at my phone, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning, and I quickly rushed into the bedroom, and there was no one! Yes, I was calling, I was trying, no one answered, or no one answered, what the hell was going on, didn't you say that something happened and called me home? We can't wait any longer. Guang Zhai suddenly thought that there were still some stores that he hadn't visited, so he could only go and see. Although it was early in the morning, Guang Zhai couldn't wait any longer, and walked towards Chinatown when he went out. It was already early in the morning, and the streets were deserted, so they could only go slowly.
"He came out and followed, and we went to the house a few times, but we didn't find anything. The square-faced man said to the man next to him and got out of the car, and another man hurriedly followed.
"Brother Hai, what if he doesn't have what we want, how can I explain it to Zhang Ye?"
"Thin monkey, you and I know Zhang Ye's methods, his parents have long been targeted to death by the people of the organization, since the thing is not on them, it can only be on his son, otherwise who will they leave it to? Less nonsense, keep up. The square-faced man said grimly. The thin monkey didn't dare to say anything, so he could only follow closely behind the square-faced man.
When Chinatown arrived, I came to the front of my shop, I turned on the lights when I entered the door, and there was not much difference from the photos sent by my mother, and the cabinets were full of all kinds of antique utensils, large and small, um? It had not been open for a long time, why was there still a thin layer of dust on it? Some disheartened Guang Zhai sat on the chair, and now he had to call the police and close the door.
Walking back in a daze, he accidentally touched the stone steps, and fell to the ground, ah, it turned out to be the bronze utensil in his jacket pocket on his waist, Guang Zhai stood up, took it out and looked at it again in his hand.
"Brother Hai, could that be what we want? We have carefully checked the things in the antique shop, and we haven't seen anything in that kid's hand?" The thin monkey was excited for a while, thinking that he could complete the task, and his mood was quite happy.
The square-faced man, his eyes narrowed into a slit, it shouldn't be wrong, most of the things in the kid's hand are what Zhang Ye is looking for, Huang Fat only went to his parents' shop when he ran away, and then came out in a hurry, it was already three days later when our people caught him, according to his whereabouts, it could only be that he hid things in this store at that time, and our people have not found it, not to mention that Huang Fat Man has some friendship with his father.
I've been following for a day, this kid probably doesn't know much, and there's no point in waiting, whether it's something or not, take it and talk about it.
Guang Zhai was carefully looking at the bronze artifact in his hand at this time, his parents were missing, and this thing was in his hands again, is there anything related, but he doesn't understand bronze antiques, and he doesn't know if it's really just a fake. But since it was given to him by his parents, he definitely can't lose it. Call the police when it's dawn.
Suddenly felt a pain in the back of his neck, and Guang Zhai fell straight to the ground.
"Skinny monkey, carry him on your back, take it away. ”
