Chapter 19: The Silent Truth

【Senior 3】

After the 100-day pledge meeting, the study entered a more intense state, because my home is far away from the school, in order not to delay the time on the way to and from school every day, my mother rented me a house in the YH community near the school.

The neighbor across the door is a grandmother in her 60s, and on the day I moved in, I happened to meet her shopping for groceries and came home. She greeted us warmly.

My mother asked her to borrow a broom, and she put down the dishes and followed my mother into my house, and was very eager to help clean up the house.

During the chat, I learned that my grandmother only had a son at the age of 40, and she was a single seedling, and the family was very precious, and she was obedient to her only child.

I also heard my grandmother say that her son didn't like to study since he was a child, so he stopped studying after graduating from high school and found a job as a waiter in a restaurant.

The day after I moved in, I went back to my apartment for self-study the next night and saw my grandmother's son.

He was opening the door with the key, and I said hello to him, "Coming back?" He turned his mask-wearing half of his face and nodded to me, but didn't speak.

After that, I met him almost every day at the elevator entrance, and I smiled politely at him, but he still just nodded, and I nicknamed him "dumb" in my heart.

Also, he always wears a black cap and mask, and the cap is pressed very low, so I never know what he looks like.

I think the "dumb" probably likes to pretend to be handsome and cool, and is shy and introverted, but I think it's funny, after all, he works in a restaurant, he is in the service industry, how can he serve good customers like that.

Once in a while, I met my grandmother again, and I talked and joked with her that her son went out fully armed and looked like a big star.

When my grandmother heard this, she praised me for being a girl who could really speak, and said with a sad face that the child was older, and she was too old to control him, and she couldn't understand him.

…………………………………………………………………………………………

After the beginning of summer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, I put on a beautiful little dress, one day, get up early to go to school, and meet at the elevator entrance, I waved to the "dumb" and asked hi, he talked to me for the first time, "you look good in a skirt", I was a little embarrassed for a while, blushed, and surprised, it turned out that he would also say a word to someone.

"The community group sent a message that there will be a power outage at 9 o'clock tonight," he pulled his mask on the bridge of his nose again.

I'm afraid of the dark, so I have to sleep with the light on at night. As soon as I heard the power outage, I panicked, and then I thought that I would study at nine o'clock next night, and I was even more panicked, "Oh, when is the call?" ”

"It's about ten o'clock."

I thought that I could stay in the school until 10 o'clock and then go back to my residence, but I didn't expect that our school to the YH community I rented was actually using a way of electricity.

From the entrance of our school to the west to the intersection, about 200 meters to the north to the end, and then turn right is the YH community, usually four or five minutes away.

But the street to the north struck me as scary, with our school fence on one side and a few car washes on the other. The old sycamores on both sides are luxuriant, and even when there is electricity, the street lamps will be hidden by them a little bright, but fortunately, it is not so dark that you can't see the potholes on the road.

And that night, I stood at the corner of the street, and as far as I could see, it was pitch black, and there were occasional pedestrians, who were also riding electric cars, bumping and bumping, and then quickly disappeared.

I really hated our evil high school at that moment, and I wasn't even allowed to bring a flashlight, otherwise I would have been able to shine on.

I made up my mind to go back in the 100-meter sprint, but I was still scared.

Just when I was sincerely frightened and at a loss, suddenly a male classmate walked in front of me with a flashlight.

I didn't have time to think about how much he dared to "commit crimes against the wind" with a flashlight, and the teacher found out that he would record the prohibited items in the file, just thinking that there was a dead-end road ahead anyway, so he must also go to the YH community, so I followed him.

I saw the "dumb" at the top of the staircase, and I asked him, "Why don't you go up?" He looked at the back of his male classmate and ignored me.

I looked embarrassed, so I hurriedly left first and followed the male classmate up the stairs. Of course, I was still a little angry in my heart, thinking about how the "dumb" could be so dragged.

The male student stopped in the corner between the fourth and fifth floors, bent down to tie his shoes, and as I passed, I saw him erect a flashlight in the corner of the wall, and two seconds later, the light shone on the roof.

I'm afraid that after a while, the male classmate will tie his shoes and take them away, and he will be in the dark again, after all, the "dumb" is always cold, and the dick will not necessarily care about me, so he quickly rushed to the door by the light.

Looking back at the flashlight with the handle downward, it was quite interesting, after all, most people put their heads down or flat. However, it is precisely because of this placement that I and the "dumb" can take advantage of the light at the door.

I opened the door and entered the house with a key, and when I closed the door, my human body sensing night light lit up, and I instantly felt that my life was back.

Later, there were a few power outages, the scene was basically similar, I followed the male classmate's flashlight home with joy in my heart, never thought much about it, just thought about living in a community anyway, that is, by the way.

"Zhao Xiaoyue, do you say you're stupid?" Men don caps and masks.

"You?! It's you?! "I almost broke down.

"It's me! Hahaha...... "The man laughed so hard that his hairs stood on end.

"If it weren't for him, you would have been mine by then!" The man pointed at Li Sen, shook off his hat, and threw away his mask.

"Shut the fuck, pervert!" Li Sen became more and more agitated, and brought out the sound of the chair.

I suddenly realized that I hadn't met the male classmate at all when the power was running normally.

"Leeson? The male classmate with the flashlight...... Is it Li Sen you? "I cried so much that I couldn't stop crying.

"Yes, he's like a ghost, following us both every day, oh, no, no, it's following me, protecting you." Sun Haoning snorted and laughed evilly.

Protect me! It's been so many years, and I didn't know that there was such a person who silently guarded me and treated me so well, that I couldn't repay it in my life.

"When the power goes out, give you lighting and lead the way, and you usually fucking follow me every day, otherwise, at that time, I would have done you ten times eight times."

"Your uncle, Sun Haoning! You son of a bitch! Li Sen's face turned purple and his neck tendons were exposed, and he tried his best to break free from the rope.

Sun Haoning signaled again, and I was pushed heavily onto the sofa by the two "non-mainstream".

"Zhao Da beauty, do you know how many photos I have taken under your little skirt?" Sun Haoning pressed my whole body against the sofa and smiled in my ear.

I'm almost going crazy with such torture, little skirt? Photograph? For a moment, my mind was full of shameful images, and my heart hurt like a knife, but I wanted to cry without tears.

"The photos are all in Li Sen's hands, has he shown them to you? Hahaha"

I suddenly recalled that I had never seen a "dumb person" since late May of that year, and the last time I encountered a power outage was two days before the college entrance examination, and I found that the male classmate walked like he had broken his foot.

And for a long time, there were rumors in the community that there were several people fighting, one seemed to have psychological problems, loved to take intimate photos of girls, and was broken by two students in the third year of high school, one of whom was a senior in high school, and the injury was not light, and it is estimated that he will not be able to take the college entrance examination.

Oh my God, for a moment, I suddenly didn't know how to bear this unforgettable, life-defying feeling.

No words can describe how I felt. Li Sen, this fool! Idiot! Why, why is it so nice to me?

What an idiot I am! How can you be so stupid? I hate myself so much, I hate myself for being stupid, stupid, naïve!

"Sun Haoning! You let her go...... If you dare to move her finger, Lao Tzu wants your life! Leeson roared until his voice was hoarse.

"I'm going to let you watch today, see how I ...... her"

"203, rounds!" There was a knock at the door.
