Chapter 57: The Cat and the Little Boy
The night is cold and windy.
Lin Xian felt the warmth of Xu Sinian in the palm of his hand, as if there was also a warm current in his heart.
"Xu Sinian." She exclaimed softly.
"Huh?" Xu Sinian, who was focused on Alley No. 7, responded, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, I'll call you." Lin Xian tilted his little head and looked at Xu Sinian's side face.
It was not specific in the dark, but the outline of Xu Sinian's tough face was faintly revealed.
Lin Xian was fascinated, and he didn't know what he thought of for a while, and suddenly let out a sneering laugh.
The next moment, she realized that there was something wrong with her actions, and immediately lowered her head in shame, and the eyes that could not see her toes turned to stare at Xu Sinian's toes.
Because of Lin Xian's inexplicable actions beside him, Xu Sinian's heart that was worried about Alley No. 7 was suddenly retracted.
He can only hope that Xing Wangu can deal with the sudden incident as he said.
After all, if he couldn't solve it with the strength of the torture eons, it would be useless for him to go over.
"Be careful." Xu Sinian involuntarily told Lin Xian beside him, "Don't move, follow me." ”
"Oh."
Lin Xian pulled out of the somewhat charming atmosphere.
But the next moment, under the strong light of the flashlight, the turbulent waves of the black river suddenly rolled up, and the surging water vapor dissipated in the air.
When I was blown by the wind, I felt cold all over my body.
Lin Xian immediately grabbed Xu Sinian's hand and leaned his body up.
Ignoring her majesty and magnificence, the pressure on Xu Sinian's arm.
Xu Sinian didn't pay much attention to this at the moment, he shone his flashlight from afar, trying to visually gauge the width of the creek.
But he soon found that the light of the flashlight could not reach the other side at all, and it was scattered in the night.
I can only know that the creek is very wide!
But the night also seems to be hindering the penetration of bright light!
Thinking of this, Xu Sinian pulled Lin Xian to step on the dirt path that the residents walked out of, and approached the riverbank.
At the end of Qinghe Road, it is very close to the other side of the river, a distance of more than ten meters, and it is only a few steps away.
When Xu Sinian pulled the forest string and staggered on the dirt on the bank of the river, and looked up,
It was dark in the distance, and the sound of rushing water was very clear in the silent night.
The wind blowing on the surface of the water mixed with the cold air from the splash of water fell on the person, and suddenly there was a piercing cold feeling.
Xu Sinian had even felt Lin Xian's body in his arms shivering coldly, but he refused to retreat.
Sighing in his heart, Xu Sinian shone the flashlight closer, a large area of withered yellow reeds kept shaking, and from time to time a few long fish swayed and swam by, revealing the water and spitting bubbles.
The near shore of the shallows is littered with small footprints of solidified children, proving that this is indeed a place where they often play.
Wrong! Something seems to be there?!
As the light of the flashlight hit the footprints, I vaguely saw that there seemed to be a black object embedded in the footprints.
"You stand here and don't move, I'll go see what's there." Xu Sinian commanded Lin Xian.
“…… Good. Lin Xian replied weakly.
Immediately, she felt Xu Sinian's arm withdrawn from her arms, and suddenly a sense of emptiness arose.
As Xu Sinian gradually approached the river with a flashlight, Lin Xian's side became darker and darker.
She always felt something in the darkness behind her watching her, but she didn't dare to look back.
"Xu Sinian......" she shouted with a trembling voice.
"Huh?" Xu Sinian stopped, looked back at Lin Xian and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, you hurry up." Lin Xian's frightened voice unconsciously brought a crying tone, "I'm afraid ......"
If you wait at the sheriff's office and don't listen, you have to follow, and you are scared when you come.
Xu Xinnian sneered in his heart, but said on his lips, "I'll be back soon, it's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
"Hmm!"
After Lin Xian nodded heavily, Xu Sinian finally slowly approached the footprints on the shore.
Under the strong light of the flashlight, Xu Sinian slightly distinguished an object that would be wrapped in sludge.
Looks like a bottle cap?
He reached out and dug it out, took two more steps forward and squatted down by the river, and slammed it a few times.
As the mud was washed away by the current, Xu Sinian found that the thing in his hand was indeed a bottle cap!
Judging from the family economic conditions of the residents here, it is impossible for them to be willing to drink bottled water so luxuriously!
But why is there a bottle cap here?!
When Xu Sinian was puzzled, his ears suddenly moved, and there was movement underwater!
"Wow!"
The next moment, a black longtail fish jumped out of the water!
"Whew!"
A black shadow suddenly burst out of the reeds in front of the side!
In Xu Sinian's field of vision, it flashed away.
"Bang!"
The Black Shadow latched on to the longtail and fell into the water.
The moment Xu Sinian heard the movement of the falling water, he had already turned the light of the flashlight over.
The fish that was latched on was struggling to slap the water, and the killer was floating on the surface, paddling quickly on all fours.
It's a cat?!
"Ahh
As soon as Lin Xian's exclamation sounded, she hurriedly covered her mouth with her own hands.
Xu Sinian heard her muffled snort, subconsciously looked back to check her situation, and just saw this scene, his tense emotions almost burst out laughing.
But by the time he turned around again, the killer had disappeared from the water.
"Meow!"
A warning cat bark suddenly sounded from the reeds in front of the side.
The flashlight in Xu Sinian's hand suddenly turned around, and he just saw a gray-white wild cat jumping up, with a vigorous posture like a tiger and leopard.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the night.
Xu Sinian held the bottle cap tightly in his hand, immediately got up and went to Lin Xian's side, took her hand and ran wildly in the direction where the wild cat disappeared.
The burden in front of Lin Xian, trembling and swaying, seriously affected her speed.
It didn't take long for him to start panting.
"Xu ...... Xu Sinian ......"
"Whew...... Call...... You, you slow down, ......"
Xu Sinian listened to her shortness of breath, and had no choice but to stop rushing forward, "You come up." ”
"Huh?!"
With Lin Xian's exclamation, Xu Sinian picked Lin Xian on his back, turned off the flashlight and continued to run.
While running wildly, Lin Xian's big bear inevitably hit Xu Sinian's solid back.
Painful and crispy......
The strong sensory response kept hitting her central nervous system.
She gritted her teeth, kept herself from making a sound, and tried her best to suppress the strange emotions in her heart.
After running along the shore for a few minutes, Xu Sinian finally heard another cat meow.
"Meow~"
Compared with the last time, this time the cry is much softer, like a gesture of favor or coquettishness?
Xu Sinian put Lin Xian down.
I didn't care about Lin Xian, who was flushed with cheeks and thighs together.
He turned on the flashlight and shone it on the source of the sound.
The wild cat was crouching at the feet of a little boy and was arching the long-tailed fish to the little boy with his head.
But with the bright light of the flashlight, the wild cat arched his waist in an instant, the hair on his back stood up, and he bared his teeth and roared at Xu Sinian.
"Meow!"
