After receiving Chen Jinzhi's message, Su Chengyi was also relieved.

At the same time, I also feel that I am really a little worried, and people just took a day off.

But her message said that she would not return to school until tomorrow, so she didn't expect to see her at the school gate at this point.

There was also a girl I hadn't seen before.

"Chen Jinzhi?"

"Hmm."

After seeing him, Chen Jinzhi was stunned in place for a moment, and then unfolded a soft smile.

"Doesn't that mean that the genius is going back to school?"

Su Chengyi strode towards her.

"Well, that's a long story. What about you, why don't you study at night, what are you doing here? ”

Chen Jinzhi threw the question back to him.

Su Chengyi sighed, there was indeed a reason why he was here.

He's been secretly observing it today. The surveillance of Building A does not cover all areas of the first floor, mainly focusing on areas where students will stay for a long time, such as the library and rest area.

The bulletin board, because it is at the back of the stairs, happens to form a monitoring blind spot.

That is to say, if someone wants to do something shady, they only need to follow the flow of people around, destroy things while waiting for a while, and then follow the next wave of people to mix out, and then they can do it without knowing it.

Therefore, I had to have insufficient equipment, so I had to make up the manpower.

Su Chengyi sank his body as much as possible, and the whole person nested in the sofa in the rest area.

The back of the sofa was high, blocking him tightly.

From the other side of the stairs, the rest area is empty.

The first middle school lasts for three hours of evening self-study, and the break time in the middle is only 15 minutes.

Many students will take this time to go to the cafeteria or commissary to buy some snacks to replenish their energy.

No matter how bad it is, go out for a walk and breathe.

So the pattern is that when class ends, the crowd rushes out, and when the class time is approaching, the crowd hurries back to the classroom.

During this time of the year, the first floor is quiet and no one stays.

But the flow of people in this time period is not to mention dozens or hundreds, and it is actually difficult to check and arrest people through monitoring with blind spots.

Even if someone is the most suspected, because there is no substantial evidence, it is impossible to convict people.

Therefore, the physical evidence was not enough, and the human evidence came to make up.

This is the reason why Su Chengyi has been lying on the sofa since the beginning of the evening self-study class.

Today's evening self-study is the physics teacher's, and the physics teacher in Su Chengyi's class is different from the most common Mediterranean fat man in everyone's stereotype, he is a gentle young man with glasses, surnamed Qin, and his name is Xiaofeng.

Because of his gentle looks and notoriously good temper, he is very popular among students.

After class, Su Chengyi just told him that he was not feeling well today and wanted to go to the health room to rest for a while.

He readily agreed, and did not ask what was uncomfortable, giving the students enough free space.

This is too rare among teachers, if it is Li Lu, he must find out what is uncomfortable before he stops.

If you can't find it clearly, it means that you are pretending to be sick, and the consequences will be serious.

There are also students who want to take advantage of Qin Xiaofeng's good temper to deceive him, but he is not angry when he is deceived, and he swallows his anger even when his salary is deducted. Over time, everyone took pity on him a little, and no one cheated him anymore.

Thinking of this, Su Chengyi silently repented in his heart for three seconds.

I'm sorry Teacher Qin, it's all because the school monitoring system is not perfect.

The sofa in the lounge area is much softer than the one at home, Su Cheng thought, he realized this problem when he hid from the rain with Chen Jinzhi last time.

It's just that Chen Jinzhi was next to him that time, which made people a little uneasy, and he didn't want to sleep at all.

Now I am alone here, the whole school building is studying at night, and the surroundings are so quiet that only the faint sound of cicadas in the surrounding trees is the chirping of cicadas.

The sleepiness doubled and swept over, and Su Chengyi's eyelids gradually began to fight.

Can't sleep.

Sighing softly, he raised his hand and purred his face.

"Tanka Xing."

Anyway, there's nothing else to do, refresh your mind, and memorize ancient poems for a while.

"When you sing about wine, how much is life?. But for the sake of the king, he has been groaning so far. ”

From rebirth to the present, he has been quite effective in making up for the evil of ancient poetry. So I memorized whatever came to mind and memorized it all the way to:

"Do you say you have no clothes? with the Son"

The bell for the rest finally rang, and Su Chengyi was startled by this sharp sound, and his originally muddy brain also became clear.

With the bell ringing, students from upstairs quickly ran down one after another.

Light or heavy footsteps on the stairs, wrapped in the sound of laughter and pushing, forming an overlapping march.

Su Chengyi didn't know if the footsteps of the person he was squatting on tonight would be mixed in, but his intuition told him that if that person wanted to make a move, it must be today.

Because every minute and second that the painting survives, it will make her feel that there are ants crawling on her body.

Such emotions will gradually spread until they devour reason, until they eliminate the fear that they might be discovered, until they can ignore the warning that Su Chengyi gave in advance today.

The sound of staggered footsteps approached, and Su Chengyi casually took out a book from the shelf next to him and covered it on his face, pretending to be asleep.

As people passed by, he remained motionless, waiting for silence around him.

Finally, when everything was silent, he gently removed the book from his face.

The atmosphere of quiet and peace lasted for a long time, so long that Su Chengyi thought that nothing would happen today.

Suddenly, I heard a very slight "bang", like the sound of some spray bottle.

What should have come is still coming.

Su Chengyi stood up quietly and walked slowly to the back of the stairs.

As we got closer, the pungent smell of paint was already in the air.

The man seemed to be very involved in the matter, holding the paint spray in both hands, and his movements gradually became exaggerated from initial caution, as if he was doing some kind of crazy dance uncontrollably.

Su Chengyi put his hands in his pockets and stood behind her for a while.

Obviously, this bottle of paint is very inferior, and the smell is so big that it is estimated that the whole building can smell it.

The plan was the same as he had envisioned, but the prop was a bit too casual.

When I go back to the classroom, I smell of paint, what is the difference between this and not recruiting myself?

Su Chengyi was thinking like this in his mind, his nasal cavity was stimulated, and he suddenly sneezed defenselessly.

"Hello!"

The man was so frightened by him that he couldn't hold the paint bottle in his hand steadily, and it fell on the tiled floor with a "clang" sound.

Turning her head and staring at each other, her first instinct was to run away.

"Zhu Zhu."

Su Chengyi quickly shouted to stop her.

Zhu Zhu's face was pale, but he still pulled out a stiff smile.

Her performance may be due to the last luck in her heart, such as you just saw it, but there is no evidence; For example, pretending to be a white lotus, framing it, and so on and a series of coping measures.

But Su Chengyi didn't leave her with this glimmer of hope, but directly raised his hand to show the video that was playing on his phone.

The whole thing she danced and sprayed paint on the bulletin board was recorded.

Seeing himself just now from someone else's perspective, Zhu Zhu's face suddenly showed a bit of disgust.

Su Chengyi turned off his mobile phone and said slowly:

"I know what you're thinking. Maybe I'm thinking of some tricks to clear my name, so that I can hide this matter for you. Maybe you want to make up some kind of lie, such as being coerced to do such a thing? ”

He looked up at the sea of pink flowers that had been tarnished beyond recognition.

Bright red, somewhat glaring.

"But unfortunately, none of this will work."

All of Zhu Zhu's thoughts were dissected word by word by the expressionless boy in front of her, she gritted her teeth and asked in a dumb voice:

"Why do you doubt me?"

Su Chengyi raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, then took two steps forward and picked up the paint bottle that rolled to the ground.

"It's almost class, you don't want to be bumped into like this, do you? Going for a walk outside? ”

Zhu Zhu looked at him with a stunned expression, but Su Chengyi didn't wait for her answer, and had already raised his feet and walked out.

Now that people are stabbing her as fish and meat, she has to keep up.

The two walked on the sycamore path under the street lamp, Su Chengyi shook the paint bottle in his hand casually, and asked slowly:

"You just asked me why I doubted you, and in fact I suspected a lot of people. The other object of suspicion was even her closer friend, and I don't think there was anything wrong with that.

Because if you want to believe a person's words, the first thing you have to cross is to doubt it. Belief without the baptism of doubt is nothing more than self-deception.

So, I want to know why you are sleeping like this to Chu. ”

Zhu Zhu had already guessed that he would ask this question, and the corners of his mouth smiled like twitches.

"You're so smart, why can't you guess? You've been watching me for a long time, why? Do you like her? Also, there is no one in the world who doesn't like her. ”

Su Chengyi ignored her question about "liking", his eyes were still looking at the street lamp that could extend farthest, and he couldn't hear any emotion in his tone.

"Even if there are some guessing ideas, you need to confirm them with the person concerned. I don't think people like Chu Tianmian will do anything to hurt you and make you hold a grudge to this point, but people's malice towards people may be like this, and they don't need any legitimate reasons. ”

In this matter, Freud put forward the theory that human beings have a tendency to self-destructive, and some people will impose this desire for destruction on others, which we call psychopaths.

What I've learned so far is that you've attacked her by changing paper at the Thousand Masters Pledge Conference and destroying the paintings that you worked so hard to make. Is there anything else you've done? ”

Zhu Zhu couldn't listen to the academic language of what he was talking about, Freud and self-destructive tendencies, and her heart was filled with the anxiety that the ugly things she had done were about to be exposed.

Su Chengyi's tone of voice was also very calm, even a little gentle, and there was no threat or questioning at all. But it's very strange that in the face of the question of his last sentence, Zhu Zhu almost shuddered before he spoke:

"Nope."

After getting the answer, Su Chengyi nodded, and then said just now:

"I've learned from others, you and Chu Tianmian have been in the same school since childhood.

When you didn't finish your homework, she helped you explain it to the teacher; When you were charged protection money by the spiritual guy and sister in the society, it was she who led her classmates to help you out; Your family background is not very good, when you were in junior high school, your parents almost did their best to send you to another school, and when you couldn't pay the tuition and miscellaneous fees, Chu Tianmian directly helped you pay them together.

And so on, and so on, and so on, right? ”

"Yes."

A few traces of obvious regret appeared on Zhu Zhu's face, and tears almost oozed from his eyes.

Su Chengyi calmly watched her expression change, and suddenly stopped,

"You don't have to pretend to be like this in front of me, I know you don't have the slightest regret in your heart.

You grew up together, but why should she be better than you? The better she is, the less your life will be. Everyone's attention and praise for her makes her shine even more, and you hate her even more.

Everything she does to you, you think is charity, but while you take it for granted, the fire of jealousy is getting stronger and stronger. Chu Qianmian's kindness is like your malice, adding but not dying. ”

When he said this, Zhu Zhu finally understood that Su Chengyi might be the first person in the world to understand her motives.

There is nothing wrong with Chu Qianmian, it is difficult to find someone more perfect and better than her in the world, but this will make her who lives in a dark corner infinitely derive hatred for her.

"As for your motives, I think I've already confirmed them. So what are you going to do about it? ”

Zhu Zhu saw that things had reached the point of no return, she looked at Su Chengyi's hand that had been inserted in the pocket of her school uniform, and asked coldly:

"Your phone, it's recording, right?"

It seemed that she didn't expect to find out, Su Chengyi was stunned for a moment.

His hand froze in his pocket for a few seconds, then he took out his phone and deleted the recording in front of her.

This discovery made Zhu Zhu feel that she had won back a city, and her ordinary face suddenly showed a little triumphant.

"See the street lights? How far can this light shine at most, and it will eventually be swallowed up in darkness. I just can't see her go so well, why? Send me two copper plates like Hanako, and I'll have to surround her like a dog, like everyone else? Dream on. ”

Su Chengyi asked thoughtfully,

"So you hurt her, through this shady way, but on the surface you want to maintain a good friend relationship with her."

"yes, that's funny. said to the culprit how sad she was, saying that no matter who did it, she wanted to know why, whether it was because she hurt others to be retaliated against like this. Isn't it ridiculous? ”

"It's ridiculous."

Su Chengyi nodded.

Then Zhu Zhu heard the hoarse voice that he had just been so excited that it came out of his pocket.

He took out a pen and shook at her the red light that was on, which looked like the red eyes of some kind of ferocious beast in the shadow of the street lamp.

All the dark mental activities were watched clean by this eye, and Zhu Zhu suddenly felt that his knees were a little weak.

Su Chengyi shook the paint bottle in his hand,

"I know you don't feel guilty about what you've done. So, let's replace guilt with fear. ”

Fear?

Zhu Zhu looked at his eyes with no warmth, and actually had a ridiculous feeling that he might be killed here.

"Don't worry, there's surveillance."

As if seeing her thoughts, Su Chengyi raised his finger and pointed ahead.

I don't know why, after hearing this, Zhu Zhu's heart was inexplicably cold.

"If I'm not prepared, I'll probably spray the rest of this bottle of paint all over you."

Su Chengyi's serious look didn't look like he was joking.

Zhu Zhu seemed to smell the pungent smell of paint in his nose again, and swallowed nervously.

Su Chengyi narrowed his eyes slightly, aimed at a trash can in front of him, and threw the paint bottle in his hand into it.

"However, I asked the teacher this afternoon to add a plastic film to the painting for protection. So, unfortunately, your graffiti creations seem to be painted on that layer of plastic. ”

Zhu Zhu listened to the sound of the paint bottle falling into the empty trash can, and her brain was a little dazed.

So?

What did she do tonight?

"But I'm not going to report you. It's not that I expect you to have the understanding of turning back, but I don't think she can understand your motives like I do. She might doubt herself because of this, and I don't want to see that effect. ”

Su Chengyi raised his head and looked at the swarms of mosquitoes under the street lamp.

The phototaxis of the genes makes these mosquitoes surround the lampshade, even if they are burned to ashes by the temperature.

"In the meantime, what I want you to do with me is to stay away from her. If you do something like this again, it may not end up being a child's affair like spraying paint. Can it be done? ”

He even said this in a slightly uplifted tone, as if a kindergarten teacher was guiding students to do their homework.

Zhu Zhu took a few steps back and nodded.

Su Chengyi also nodded neatly, and turned around to leave.

"Why are you. To do these things for her? Now that you know my motives, what about yours? ”

In the end, Zhu Zhu still mustered up the courage to ask this question again.

She and Chu Qianmian have known each other since they were very young, and Chu Qianmian's obsession with Su Chengyi has always existed.

But in Zhu Zhu's memory, the relationship between the two has always been Chu Qianmian chasing after Su Chengyi.

She once thought that this relationship would last, and secretly gained a lot of relief.

Thinking that Chu Qianmian also had things that he couldn't love, Zhu Zhu felt that life was fair to some extent.

But I don't know when it started, Su Chengyi suddenly turned around and saw Chu Tianmian behind him. The distance between the two was instantly shortened, and he would even negotiate with him for her.

All this made Zhu Zhu a little difficult to accept.

Hearing this question, Su Chengyi stopped and seemed to be thinking seriously.

After a while, he spoke slowly:

"Because I love it."

He paused, then continued:

"The painting."
