Chapter 96: When the Sky Falls, I'm on My Side

Jiang Huaining slowed down for a while, straightened up and walked to her, didn't say a word, just stared at her deeply, and there were things surging in that Lu Zhu couldn't understand.

The tip of his nose was sore, Lu Zhu's eyes instantly turned red, and he couldn't stop it, and big tears rolled down the corners of his eyes.

She had already cried on the way to the mall, and the tears on her face were dried by the cold wind, leaving only a tight touch. thought that people would be numb when the tears dried up, but when she saw Jiang Huaining, the grievances came back uncontrollably and magnified exponentially.

Jiang Huaining had no experience in comforting girls, and when he saw her burst into tears, he panicked all of a sudden, relying on instinct, and pressed the back of her head with one hand to circle her into his arms.

The two of them stood and sat together, Lu Zhu's face was buried in his waist and abdomen, and he felt his body temperature through the clothes, and the temperature seemed to wrap her entirely, impenetrable.

The zipper of his down jacket was open, and he was not wearing a school uniform inside, only a white sweatshirt, and tears penetrated a thin layer of fabric, clinging to his skin.

It was clearly warm, but it was as if his skin had been burned.

Jiang Huaining's eyes were lowered, her heart was tightened, her palm was on top of her head, and she comforted softly: "It's okay, I'm here." ”

Lu Zhu bit his lip at first to hold back his crying, but when he heard his voice, he couldn't suppress it completely, his teeth loosened his lips, and a low whimper came out of his swollen and sore throat.

The air around is dull, and people who come and go can't help but look at the two of them, and the good-looking and temperamental boy hugging a crying girl can easily make people have some ambiguous associations.

I don't know how long it has been, Lu Zhu has cried enough, his voice gradually stopped, like a child, his shoulders shrugged from time to time, and there was a sobbing sound in his nose.

Jiang Huaining always clasped her head with a big palm, stood motionless in front of her, gave her a human-shaped pillow, listening to her crying, he was more uncomfortable than her.

"Don't cry, okay?"

For the first time in his life, he realized that he was stupid and could not think of comforting words, or rather, his mind was so distracted that he could not organize his words at all.

Consciousness gradually returned, Lu Zhu began to feel embarrassed, his body retreated, his eyelashes wet with tears stuck together, and it took a long time for his vision to become clear.

Jiang Huaining's sweatshirt was wet with her tears and snot with a dark trace, she raised her sleeves to cover her eyes, her voice didn't belong to her anymore, and she sounded hoarse and unfamiliar: "I'm sorry, I soiled your clothes......"

Jiang Huaining sat sideways next to her, took her arm, took out a pack of handkerchief paper from his pocket, and took out one to wipe her tears: "It's okay." It's not the first time anyway. ”

Lu Zhu changed it, took the tissue from his hand, and wiped his face by himself.

Her eyes were red and swollen, like two walnuts, and the tips of her nose and cheeks were red, and she looked embarrassed even if she wiped away the tear stains.

Jiang Huaining was distressed, glanced at his watch, and asked tentatively: "Do you want to go back to school?" ”

Lu Zhu pinched the tissue in his palm and lowered his eyes, his thin shoulders fell, and after a few seconds, he shook his head slowly: "I don't want to go back." ”

She is a coward, she doesn't have the courage to face those accusatory and contemptuous eyes, and wants to explain and reason with them, but they won't believe it.

People are always willing to believe more dramatic and outrageous news than the facts.

"Then don't go back." Jiang Huaining didn't persuade her, sat on the bench with her, lowered his head and pulled a tissue and handed it over.

Lu Zhu said to himself: "I skipped class, the first time I skipped class. ”

It's sad to be like this, and I still remember skipping class, it's hard for her. Jiang Huaining was helpless, and comforted her loudly: "Run away, just run away, just one or two classes, it doesn't matter." ”

Lu Zhu turned his head to look at him, his eyelashes were wet, and his expression was tangled: "I don't want to go to the evening self-study." ”

Jiang Huaining pulled the corners of his lips and smiled silently, not caring and said: "Then escape enough at once, I will be on my side when the sky falls, and I will accompany you to escape." ”

"Why are you so good?"

A sentimental sentence overflowed from between Lu Zhu's lips, and after speaking, she was stunned for a moment, staring at the tissue ball in her hand at a loss. Because she was curious about Jiang Huaining's reaction, she quickly raised her eyes to look at him, and when she saw him laughing, her ears were a little hot.

"What's wrong with your jaw?" Lu Zhu pointed to the red on his jaw and changed the subject stiffly.

Jiang Huaining's fingertips touched the place she was pointing at, and said while recalling: "At that time, I was in a fight, and I was accidentally touched by Gu Cheng's fist, and I didn't feel anything." ”

He didn't tell the truth, the place where he was beaten actually hurt a little. Gu Chengtie was determined to teach Fang Qiaoyi a lesson, and the fist he swung out was full of anger and annoyance, leaving no room for it, and the force was extremely heavy, even if it rubbed his chin, it left a lot of traces.

Speaking of Gu Cheng, Jiang Huaining suddenly remembered that he hadn't told anyone else about finding Lu Zhu, and they might still be looking for people everywhere.

"Gu Cheng, Shen Huan, and the squad leader have all come out to find you, let me send a message to them?" Considering Lu Zhu's emotions, Jiang Huaining first consulted her meaning.

Lu Zhu looked at him in surprise and said in disbelief: "They all came out?" ”

"Hmm."

"Then you let them go back." Skipping class by herself, even if she delays other people's time, she is very reluctant to go.

"Don't want Gu Cheng to come over?"

Lu Zhu was silent. To be precise, she didn't want to see anyone. If Jiang Huaining hadn't found this place, she would probably have stayed there for a long, long time until she figured it out and then went back.

Jiang Huaining saw her silence in his eyes, and understood what she meant, took out his mobile phone and sent a message to the three people, saying that the person had been found and asked them to go back to the class first.

He didn't say where he found Lu Zhu.

The other two are easy to talk to, and Gu Cheng is afraid that it is not so easy to dismiss......

This thought just flashed through his mind, and sure enough, Gu Cheng made a phone call.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Huaining looked at Lu Zhu's face, didn't avoid her, and answered the phone: "Hey." ”

"Where are you?" On the other side of the phone was Gu Cheng's heavy wheezing voice, which probably ran several places without stopping, and his voice was very urgent.

Compared with the two, Jiang Huaining's tone was much calmer, and he stated lightly: "She is not emotionally stable and doesn't want to go back to school for the time being, I am with you here, you can go back first." ”

"I ask you ......"

Jiang Huaining hung up the phone, thought about it, and pressed the power off button on the side of the phone with his thumb.

A few seconds later, the screen went black, he stuffed the phone back into the pocket of his down jacket, looked back at Lu Zhu, and found that she was staring diagonally diagonally in a daze.

There was a restroom, a safe passage behind an iron gate, and an orange fire box hung on the snow-white wall.

Jiang Huaining lowered his upper body, leaned closer and asked her, "What's wrong?" ”

"My dad works as a security guard here, he has always been very serious about such a simple job, and the year before last he was praised by the police for catching a thief who committed theft, he couldn't do that kind of thing." Lu Zhu said intermittently, because his thoughts were confused, and he was a little incoherent, "I don't know why others slander him, he is such a good person." Jiang Huaining, I'm so sad, I can't do anything...... Why did the camera break down on that day, why did it just break this layer, why can't God let good people have good rewards......"

Seeing that she was about to fall into that sad mood again, close herself, and then torture herself, Jiang Huaining couldn't sit still, held her hand and stood up.

Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment, forced to get up, and followed him forward, not knowing where he was going to take him.

"Let's go to the monitoring room and ask someone."

Jiang Huaining wanted to help her, even if it might not work, he had to do something.

Lu Zhu didn't want to splash him with cold water, but he had to tell him: "It's useless, the surveillance police on the upper and lower floors have been called, but I haven't found any useful pictures." ”

The two were walking, and several young men and women were standing around the corner fiddling with two cameras.

The short girl with a ponytail tiptoed, looked at this camera, then at that one, and said happily: "Is there enough material for this time?" ”

"I took out all the treasures at the bottom of the box, and I filmed them for several days, so I was able to cut out a video. Wait, our group will win the prize. Another boy in a short dark blue down jacket raised eyebrows as he spoke.

Several people were in excitement, and the volume of the conversation was not low, and when Jiang Huaining heard it, he immediately thought of Lu Zhu's father.

He didn't let go of Lu Zhu's hand, pulled her forward, and stood next to one of the cameras: "Hello, I want to ask, is your camera fixed every day?" ”

He saw that both cameras were set up with stable tripods facing different angles.

Several students looked at him warily, and one of the boys said: "We said hello to the mall manager in advance, and they agreed to shoot it, and we didn't shoot you, just some clips of life." ”

Jiang Huaining smiled: "I didn't mean that. ”

He briefly explained his intentions, and several college students looked at each other, not expecting that the video he took was likely to become evidence of the innocence of others.

The long-haired girl had a lively personality and was easier to speak, and when she heard this, she smiled slightly: "We're not sure if we have captured what you want, besides, there are hundreds of videos taken in the past few days, and it is very troublesome to screen, can you wait?" ”

Lu Zhu instantly understood what Jiang Huaining was going to do, hope rekindled in his eyes, and he nodded gratefully: "Yes, yes." ”

She was so excited that she almost cried again.

Jiang Huaining knew that it was a blessing that people could agree to help, and it was not good to make an inch, but he had to think about Lu Zhu. For her, every minute and every second of waiting was torment, and he didn't want to see her sad again.

After some struggle, Jiang Huaining's voice carried pleading and apologetic: "I'm sorry, this evidence is really important to us, my friend's father is still being detained in the police station." Can you send me all the videos if it's convenient? I screened it and promised not to leak anything else in the video. ”
