"...There is nothing, old lady." Qin Rui turned his head back and said with a smile: "However, what you said sounds very convincing. Shall I buy one of your amulets? How much is it?"
Old Mrs. Winster shook her head slowly, groped for the inner pocket of her old sweater, and took out an old one with only one black bead on it, and several red words written on it. , I couldn't tell which language it was, and handed it to Qin Rui.
"...I used this when I was young. It seems that you need it very much now, so I will give it to you..." Mrs. Winston said to Qin Rui without any expression on her wrinkled face .
Qin Rui took the chain, put it in his belt indifferently, took out the banknotes and gave them to Mrs. Winster, but the other party refused to accept them. After several excuses, Qin Rui had no choice but to say that he would donate the money to the church. Doing daily public welfare activities, this was able to get away and leave.
After Qin Rui hastily followed Lisa and Su Wenhao, Grandma Winster slowly looked at the empty tree and murmured in a hoarse tone: "...you...really don't want to let go That person?"
The trees were rustling by the wind, and the dust on the ground was flying. Many tourists covered their mouths and noses and walked quickly. Mrs. Winster stared at the scene for a long time, and sighed silently.
"Forget it..." Granny Winston seemed to say to the air, "Just take it as fate..."
The activities of the church ended smoothly, and a lot of money was raised, which made Lisa and his wife very happy, so that the church would have a way to help more disadvantaged groups, but although Qin Rui and Su Wenhao laughed along, they couldn't help it. On the surface, Qin Rui didn't care at all, but the old lady Winston's words and the series of unbelievable things that happened before did leave a shadow in his heart, and Su Wenhao, he took advantage of Qin Rui not to When paying attention, observe the other party carefully, showing a thoughtful and dignified expression.
One day passed like this, the next morning, the hospital was resting, but Qin Rui still had to go to work at the company, and there was a case that had to be rushed, so Qin Rui invited Lisa to come to his home to accompany Su Wenhao, and help take care of him by the way, and the other party was also very happy He readily agreed.
"Then, I'm leaving." Qin Rui kissed Su Wenhao's forehead, took the paper bag full of documents, and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, Qin Rui." Su Wenhao suddenly stopped the other party, fumbled in his pocket, and took out a delicate tie clip.
"Here, put this on." Su Wenhao smiled and handed the tie clip to the other party.
"It's so beautiful." Qin Rui stared at the tie clip in front of him. Although it is not made of precious metal, the simple design looks very generous: "Give it to me? When did you buy it?"
"Ah, Qin Rui, you are really good at joking." Su Wenhao patted Qin Rui's thigh with a smile, and explained with the other party's blank expression: "This is your first job, when you are notified of admission , I spent half a month’s wages to buy it for you. At that time, you said that you would treasure it for the rest of your life. Although at that time...you gave it back to me...but you can’t be so forgetful, right? I still wear it every day!"
"Ah! Hehe...hehe..." Qin Rui listened, and said haha: "Yes, I was joking...I wanted to ask you for a long time...but I didn't know how to say it...Wen Hao...Thank you for giving it back to me ..."
Qin Rui hurriedly put on the tie clip in front of Su Wenhao, then hugged Su Wenhao before turning and leaving the house.
"... Big liar..." As soon as Qin Rui left, the smile on Su Wenhao's face disappeared immediately. He stared at the door panel, his eyes were a little red, showing a very strange expression.
"Hi! Kiss Wen Hao! I'm here!" At this moment, the door opened quickly!Lisa stepped on the spot and came to their home. Seeing Su Wenhao's eyes were red, she squatted down worriedly and asked.
"What's the matter? Who bullied our family Wen Hao? Is it Qin Rui? Sister scold him for you!"
"No, it's not..." Su Wenhao wiped the corners of his eyes, and said to Lisa with a smile, "Just now, a sudden gust of wind blew dust into my eyes."
"Really?" Lisa forced Su Wenhao to look at her, and asked with concern: "Don't lie to my sister! You must tell me something, you know?!"
"Really, I won't hide it from you..." Su Wenhao was amused by Lisa's actions, and he said to Lisa with a gentle expression: "By the way, Sister Lisa, I have something to trouble you... "
"What trouble is it? Just say it, I'm here with my sister!" Lisa patted her chest and said proudly.
"Today...I want...to trouble...to help...this..." Su Wenhao said in a low voice beside Lisa.
"Then what's the problem!" Lisa said with a smile after listening, "Wait for me, I'll go and drive the car over."
Seeing Lisa go out to drive excitedly, Su Wenhao lowered his head, and then, a determined expression appeared in his eyes.
When Qin Rui arrived at the company, because today was not a working day, and he was the only one who could handle his case, no one from the whole company came except the guard in the management room on the first floor.
After hurriedly saying hello to the guard, Qin Rui pressed the elevator button, straightened his collar a little, and the elevator was slowly ascending.
Suddenly, in the middle of the journey, the elevator suddenly shook violently, and the lights began to flicker. Qin Rui jumped, and hurriedly helped the wall beside him.
Then it swayed violently again, and the elevator went up straight up like a sound, and could hear the creaking sound of the bearing rubbing against the iron cable, and then, with a whoosh, the elevator rushed past the fifth floor where Qin Rui's company was located, and stopped. On the 5th floor.
With a ding, the elevator door slowly opened, and Qin Rui stumbled out quickly. He didn't dare to stay in this elevator for a moment. crippled.
The elevator door closed slowly again, blocking the light. Only then did Qin Rui improve the environment on the 9th floor. The 9th floor has not been rented out, so it is currently idle. The building materials and waste compartments are piled up everywhere, so the 9th floor is very messy. Basically, everyone takes the elevator to and from work, and no one will come to the 9th floor.
There is no lighting at all, but fortunately it is daytime, and the light from the gaps in the windows of the building sealed with black tape does not prevent you from seeing the road at all, Qin Rui is in this pile of mess In the middle, by slowly moving forward and groping, slowly move towards the exit of the escape ladder on the 9th floor.
Qin Rui walked forward slowly, while being careful not to be tripped by the rubbish on the ground. The originally 10-minute journey took half an hour. When he reached the exit of the escape ladder, Qin Rui was already panting and sweating profusely.
Reaching out and turning the iron door of the escape ladder, Qin Rui found that it was actually locked. He couldn't help being a little annoyed, and slammed on the iron door, shouting loudly, hoping that others would listen.
"Crack...Crack..." At this moment, Qin Rui suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object rubbing against the ground behind him, making his hair stand on end, and he looked back slowly.
I saw a... strange-shaped black shadow slowly oozing out from the gap in the elevator door just now, like a sticky ball of petroleum jelly, gradually gathering into a human shape, the whole body is still moving, and then He limped with seemingly hobbled steps, pushed away the garbage on the ground, and walked straight towards Qin Rui.
"Fuck!" Qin Rui turned pale with shock, turned his head and slammed on the iron door, and kept shouting, "Come on, come on! Open the door!"
The sound from behind was getting louder and louder, which meant that the monster was getting closer and closer. Qin Rui patted harder and harder, his palms were red and bleeding, but still no one responded.
"Hey..." Suddenly there was a strange sound in his ear, Qin Rui hurriedly looked back, the slime man had come to him, he opened his mouth wide to bite himself off, but he couldn't tell what it was The liquid of the thing kept dripping on the ground, and there was a stench.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
At this time, Qin Rui's trousers pocket glowed bright red, and the light shone on the black slime man. The slime man seemed to show a painful expression, and then disappeared with a swish.
"Mr. Qin! Mr. Qin!" Qin Rui was woken up by a violent shaking, he raised his head blankly, and Jing Wei was followed by two workers, looking at him worriedly.
"I, this is...?" Qin Rui blinked and said in a daze.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qin!" The guard said apologetically, "The elevator is out of order. I saw it on the monitor. I immediately asked a worker to look at it. There was a traffic jam on the road and it was delayed... So now, the 9th floor No one uses it, in order to avoid thieves hiding in it, it is usually locked, and I locked you, I am very sorry!"
Qin Rui was helped up by several people. He turned his head to look at the messy 9th floor. The terrifying figure just now had disappeared.
"Just now... have you guys..." Qin Rui pointed at the elevator entrance tremblingly: "See something strange?"
The guard and the two workers looked at each other, and replied suspiciously: "No, Mr. Qin, when we arrived, we could only see you hugging your head, huddled at the escape door, and you didn't know what you were saying. Nothing else..."
"Ah... oh..." Qin Rui responded, and under the worried eyes of several people, he waved his hand to show that it was okay, and went downstairs by himself.
Suddenly, there was a rattling sound from the pocket of his trousers. Qin Rui took out the pocket and took out the necklace that the old lady Winster forced into him yesterday. All the symbols on the beads disappeared, and the black beads shattered into three pieces.
Qin Rui stared at the amulet for a long time, finally picked up the phone and dialed a number slowly.
"Jason, it's me, Qin Rui... Did I bother you..." Qin Rui said slowly, "Oh, no... I'm not looking for Lisa... I just want to ask you about your address and phone number... about..."
Some things always need to be resolved, Qin Rui thought to himself.
