Chapter 3: Dead Ends
Early the next morning, Ji Yao got up early. Today is the weekend, and she originally wanted to spend a day at home, but now it is impossible.
Drive to the cinema area, which is almost the center of the city, with several commercial pedestrian streets staggered and juxtaposed, so every day is crowded. There are a lot of young people like Qiao Hao, and students from several colleges and universities around them will run here when they are fine.
The life of young people, Ji Yao looked at the girls in front of her who were wearing short skirts and walking side by side, each of them was smiling like a flower, Ji Yao missed the time of her girlhood a little, and suddenly, she saw a baby wrapped around the legs of one of the girls, the translucent body was swaying and hanging, and the girls lifted their shrunken socks up from time to time.
All ghosts will not haunt someone for no reason, ghosts that do not go to reincarnation have a persistent purpose, and a few lost ghosts are just because they simply don't remember what they want to do, and when the time comes, they will also know their purpose.
Seeing that the little baby was very infatuated with this girl, all Ji Yao could think of was that this girl was the mother of the baby.
"There are a lot of such ghosts, so there's no need to mix them up. Qiao Hao said coldly on the side.
Ji Yao nodded, she didn't have the time to care about others now.
Qiao Hao pointed to the road and took Ji Yao to the place where he had an accident.
The alley during the day is not as eerie as it is at night, and the alley is flanked by high walls, and two or three windows are sparsely pulled at the top of the wall, which should be the windows of the attic. Ordinary people walking on the street outside will simply ignore this side. Ji Yao has also been here a few times, but it is the first time she has noticed this small alley.
"You said you heard someone calling you?" Ji Yao asked Qiao Hao, who was floating behind, puzzled.
"Hmm. Qiao Hao recalled.
Soon, Ji Yao walked to the bottom of the alley. It's a dead end, and at the end there's a pile of useless furniture, which should have been thrown here by someone nearby.
"You didn't see a single figure after you came in?" Turning around, she asked Qiao Hao with a frown.
"There was no one, except for a white shadow before passing out. Qiao Hao is sure that although his memory is a bit messy when he first becomes a ghost, he will not be wrong about this.
"That's not right, you heard someone call you, you walked in, and then you were stunned just as soon as you wanted to turn around, and there is no door to hide in this alley......" Ji Yao lowered her head and thought about it, these are not logical.
"Could it be that the other party is not a person at all?" Ji Yao looked up at Qiao Hao.
Qiao Hao lowered his head, his face blurred like the surface of a lake where stones had been thrown.
No matter what the other party is, he must figure it out, otherwise, the underworld will not be able to get by.
......
After returning home for dinner, Ji Yao lay on the sofa in the living room in a daze. Qiao Hao's affairs are not easy to handle, the alley has been carefully checked several times, and the people around him have also asked, but there is no new discovery. Qiao Hao floated back and forth on the side, and from time to time he plunged into the wall. Ji Yao thought for a while, but she couldn't figure out a clue, she rubbed her temples, this matter has to be considered in the long run. After a while, Ji Yao's thoughts deserted. She remembered someone.
Jiang attack.
Ji Yao blinked her eyes and shook her head, don't think about it. It's just a relationship, and she doesn't think she is so natural. Ji Yao tried hard to get Jiang Xian's figure out of her mind, but she found that it was getting clearer and clearer the more she hurried, and she picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table and looked at it in distraught, it was only one o'clock in the afternoon.
Do you want to go to the bar and sit down?Thinking about it, Ji Yao had already picked up the key. Qiao Hao consciously followed.
The bar during the day is not as crowded as at night, and the bar music is soothing. Ji Yao walked to the bar and sat down.
"What do you need?" asked Ji Yao with a smile as the handsome waiter at the bar asked.
"I don't drink, let's have a drink. ”
Taking the lemonade handed over by the waiter, Ji Yao drank it slowly, turned the chair and looked around, but did not see the figure in hope.
"Who are you looking for, Jiang Xian?" Qiao Hao suddenly asked.
"Nope. Ji Yao turned her head and said to Qiao Hao.
"Miss, what's wrong?" asked the waiter at the bar, puzzled.
"Oh hehe, nothing. Ji Yao smiled awkwardly, she almost forgot that everyone else couldn't see Qiao Hao.
"Your heart is beating fast. Qiao Hao stood in the bar, his body passing through several rows of wine, colorful. Ji Yao ignored him, she couldn't talk to Qiao Hao, otherwise people would treat her as insane. When she was a child, she was ignorant and made several mistakes, causing others to treat her as a freak, and that loneliness was something she couldn't forget in her life.
After drinking the drink in her hand, she was about to go home, put down the cup and just wanted to get up, a new glass of lemonade was placed in her hand. She looked at the waiter strangely, and this glance made her whole body crash into those eyes.
In the deep eyes, there are a little bit of starlight, dark like the night sky, and the long eyelashes are slightly drooping, bent into a very beautiful arc. She felt her heart skip a beat.
"This cup pleases you. The man smiled slightly, his thin lips were faintly red, and with this fair face, it was clean and beautiful.
"Ah, that, thank you. "It's Jiang Xian, Ji Yao doesn't look at him, she is afraid that if she looks at it any longer, her face will burn, and she already feels that her face is heating up. Jiang Xi wiped the wine bottle, and the wine bottle on the wine shelf was sparkling, glowing with a faint light, reflecting on his slender fingertips, which was unexpectedly good-looking. Qiao Hao was still standing in the wine rack just now, and he didn't know where to go.
"My name is Jiang Xian, sheep girl Jiang, what about you?" Jiang Xian walked to the opposite side of Ji Yao's bar and leaned forward slightly.
"Me?" Ji Yao was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Jiang Xi to suddenly talk to her. "Oh, my name is Ji Yao, Ji of Ji Fa, Yao of Yao Chi. Jiang Xi leaned over and looked at her with his head bowed slightly, a pair of eyes, dark and bottomless.
Ji Yao was panicked by him: "What's the matter, I have ash on my face?" reached out and touched his face unconsciously.
"No, nice name. Jiang Xi retracted, "I haven't seen you before, so I don't come here often, do you?"
"Well, it's the second time I've come today. ”
"That was the first time I came last night. Jiang Xian's thick eyebrows raised slightly, "Do you like Xue Chen's songs?"
"I like it, he sings very well. In fact, she had forgotten what Xue Chen had sang.
"I saw that you were absent-minded last night, and I thought I didn't like it. Jiang Xi said lightly.
Karma ...... Last night he noticed that he was looking at him? Is there a hole, she wants to get in.
"I'm thinking about work, and I'm a little upset. Ji Yao said casually.
"Oh, what does Miss Ji do?" Jiang Xi asked along with her.
"Let's call me Xiao Yao. Ji Yao waved her hand again and again, Miss Ji, Miss Ji, she couldn't tell the difference, "Makeup artist, put makeup on others." "It's a makeup artist, but the other party is a dead person, and a dead person is also a human being.
Jiang Xian listened, and the corners of his eyes were slightly curved: "That's good." ”
......
When I got home, I saw that Qiao Hao was already in the living room.
"Did you come back by yourself?" Ji Yao asked in surprise, usually Qiao Hao followed her every step when she went out, but this time when she went home, she found that he was not in the car, and it turned out that she floated home first.
"He can see me. Qiao Hao said quietly.
