Zhu Xiaozhou visited Xiaoxia's grandmother's house, turned into the path from the stop sign at the bus stop, and walked along the path.

"It's heavy—it smells weird."

Zhu Xiaozhou frowned and asked Xiao Wenxuan if he had smelled anything.

Xiao Wenxuan carefully confirmed it and said, "It's the smell of earth." ”

On ordinary paths, the smell of dirt is not surprising.

Strange to them, the smell was not quite the same as the taste of ordinary earth—

What is certain is that last night, something must have happened here.

The further you go, the more people there are.

Zhu Xiaozhou looked at the crowd of people who were busy coming and going, and was a little puzzled.

Xiao Wenxuan's reaction was similar, but what made him care more about -

It was Zhu Xiaozhou who found this dress for him.

What Zhu Xiaozhou said was that his original body was too eye-catching, and if Xiao Wenxuan wanted to go out with her, he had to change into clothes that didn't need to attract attention.

I don't know whose clothes belong to, there is always a smell of sweat that Xiao Wenxuan cares about very much.

Zhu Xiaozhou listened to the onlookers say-

Last night, a schoolgirl who lives in this neighborhood was killed on her way home from school.

said that the girl's grades have always been good, her parents are working in other places, and she lives with her grandmother. The high school entrance examination is approaching, and school is a little late, no one expected it to be like this-

"Looks like you've found the right one."

When Zhu Xiaozhou found Xiao Xia's grandmother's house, there were also police officers investigating at her house.

Xiao Xia's grandmother cried a handful of snot and tears, saying that Xiao Xia's parents had been notified and they were rushing back.

The old lady is over seventy years old, and she has only one daughter, and Xiao Xia is also her only grandson.

Xiao Xia's parents went to BJ to work a few years ago and handed Xiao Xia over to her to take care of.

She takes care of Xiaoxia's life with three meals a day, and when she is free, she plays cards with a few old ladies downstairs and chats to pass the time.

Last night......

She waited at home as usual, and after the evening self-study time, she received a call from Xiao Xia in the teacher's office, Xiao Xia said that she would make two more papers at school and go home later.

She stood at the door, listening to the movement, planning to wait for Xiao Xia to enter the door, and then give the meal to the child as soon as she heats up.

But wait, wait, wait—

It's also strange to say, at that time, Xiao Xia would have come back a long time ago.

She was tired of waiting and leaned back on the couch and took a nap.

When I woke up in a trance, the clock on the wall was already half past three!

Xiao Xia's grandmother suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Immediately searched every room and found that Xiao Xia really didn't come back. I quickly took out the notebook where I had memorized the phone number and dialed the phone number of Xiaoxia's head teacher-

The head teacher was asleep when he was woken up, and when he heard that the child had not come home, he was also shocked.

The two of them discussed on the phone that they wanted to find Xiao Xia, and the head teacher also specially told Xiao Xia's grandmother to let her get dressed and wait downstairs. I immediately went over to pick her up and went to find Xiao Xia together.

Xiao Xia's grandmother hurriedly put on her coat and went downstairs-

At the top of the stairs, she saw one of Natsu's shoes!

At that time, the whole person was stupid, holding the shoe everywhere to look for Xiao Xia, and he was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

Xiao Xia's homeroom teacher also came at this time, and after hearing about the situation, he searched for it nearby.

As a result, they saw from a distance that the lid of the classified garbage can in the community was closed, and something was stuck, revealing a gap-

They didn't know what to think, so they dared to step forward and lift the lid!

It turns out that the lid of the trash can -

It's Natsu's head.

Xiao Xia's body, thrown in the trash, was dumped on a pile of garbage, her head pressed against the lid.

A pair of eyes –

Just look through the gap and look out!

What a pale face!

Xiao Xia's homeroom teacher was so frightened that he almost went insane.

called the police, and—

Believe that she will not touch that kind of trash can again for a long time.

Xiao Xia's grandmother cried so much that she fainted several times, and I heard that Xiao Xia was far away from BJ's parents, and the situation was not much better.

Zhu Xiaozhou hesitated, not knowing how to tell Xiao Xia the news.

"You don't seem to be the same to her." Xiao Wenxuan said the question that had been baffling him, and from the moment Xiao Xia appeared in Qi Yundang, he could feel it-

Zhu Xiaozhou is different from Xiao Xia.

He asked, "Is it because you all live with your grandmother?" ”

Zhu Xiaozhou was stunned for a moment and looked at him in surprise.

Xiao Wenxuan said that he saw the one at the head of Zhu Xiaozhou's bed-

A photo with her grandmother.

“...... I'm a wild child. Zhu Xiaozhou's expression was a little unnatural, "I don't know who my parents are, when I was abandoned by my parents, I was still a baby." It was my grandmother who picked me up and pulled me with one hand. ”

"Isn't she living with you right now?"

Xiao Wenxuan didn't feel dead from that photo, that is to say-

Zhu Xiaozhou's maternal grandmother should not have died.

Since their ancestors and grandchildren have such a good relationship, there is no reason to live separately.

Zhu Xiaozhou doesn't know how many times he sighed today. I tried to be calm, but I couldn't tear the candy wrapper that helped the lollipop anyway......

Xiao Wenxuan watched the movements under her hands, took the initiative to take it, and helped her tear the candy wrapper.

Zhu Xiaozhou took the lollipop and put it in his mouth.

"She's gone. She said, one day...... If she knew she was no longer good, she would leave me and find a place where no one was waiting to die-"

Therefore, grandma has not come back for so long, and Zhu Xiaozhou naturally thinks that grandma is dead.

"She's not dead yet." Xiao Wenxuan said.

Zhu Xiaozhou looked up at him suddenly, and even forgot the sugar in his mouth.

"I didn't feel her dead air, which means that she must still be alive." Xiao Wenxuan wasn't comforting her.

"Then why didn't she come back?"

Zhu Xiaozhou was stupid.

Since Grandma is still alive, why—

Won't come back?

"Qi Yundang can break the confinement of time, and Qi Yundang's master can wander around at any time-" Xiao Wenxuan thought of a reason, "Perhaps, she is trapped in which time." ”

That's right-

That's right!

Zhu Xiaozhou suddenly!

Why hadn't she thought of it before?

"Got it, I got it!" Zhu Xiaozhou thought that his grandmother might still be alive, and suddenly smiled.

Seeing her laughing, Xiao Wenxuan was inexplicably relieved and much more relaxed.

In order to express his gratitude to Xiao Wenxuan, Zhu Xiaozhou was rare and generous, and actually invited Xiao Wenxuan to drink milk tea-

Sit on the side of the road and drink.

Xiao Wenxuan was holding a cup of warm and turbid milk tea, his expression was extremely embarrassed, but he saw Zhu Xiaozhou sucking a straw and drinking extremely satisfied-

I still couldn't help but be curious, so I leaned in.

This bite is incredible.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

"Drink it!" Zhu Xiaozhou said proudly.

Fortunately, she had already found a buy-one-get-one-free coupon from the Internet, plus a discount, which was equivalent to spending half a cup of money to buy two cups of milk tea!

"It's a strange thing in your world." Xiao Wenxuan sighed, "Milk-tea-good things!" ”

Zhu Xiaozhou looked at him as if he had never seen the world, and smiled backwards.

Sure enough, bring interesting people to drink milk tea together-

That's right.

The two of them are studying whether milk tea is milk or tea.

But I suddenly heard two girls passing by talking about the recent succession of many incidents-

The murder of a girl who returned late ......

Zhu Xiaozhou immediately thought of Xiao Xia's matter!

Could it be—

So is Natsu?
