Chapter 45 The Mysterious Tenant (End)
What happened that night was like a nightmare, always lingering in Bai Su's heart. Fortunately, Jiang Zuo, who usually seemed very unreliable, took it all his own way. Later, he didn't know what kind of relationship was used to sell the house. Take Bai Su and leave City A together.
Before leaving, Bai Su went to "One Degree Below Minus" alone to bid farewell to everyone.
Shi Yinglan was applying nail polish in front of the booth by the window. Jiang Dingzhou sat beside him and watched intently. Occasionally, Shi Yinglan accidentally smeared and stomped her feet to complain angrily. to coax her.
Jiang Dingzhou praises him outside, but he can do whatever he wants when he comes to this small cold drink shop, but he will only be rejected by others. Shi Yinglan gave him an unceremonious look, bowed her head and continued with her unfinished work.
Bai Su stood outside the window, staring enviously at the two people with pink bubbles, with a warm smile on his face, he was really happy for Jiang Dingzhou, maybe he will be able to watch the clouds and see the moon soon.
Shi Yinglan glanced at Bai Su's figure suddenly, and said in surprise: "Little idiot, you are here? Why don't you come in?"
Bai Su walked in with a smile, and with Jiang Dingzhou's gaze like silver needles, sat down beside the two of them: "I'm going to S City with Jiang Zuo in a while, so come and talk to Sister Lan."
As soon as Shi Yinglan heard this, she exploded immediately: "You are staying here well, why don't you just leave?" Jiang Dingzhou raised his head thoughtfully, secretly suppressing his excitement, and looked at Bai Su questioningly, Bai Su nodded at him invisibly, so both of them agreed.
Bai Su brought out a set of arguments that he and Jiang Zuo had hurt long ago, and managed to get rid of Shi Yinglan's enthusiastic retention.
After a brief silence, Jiang Dingzhou stared at Bai Su, and asked meaningfully, "Where's Jiang Zuo?"
Bai Su explained: "He's packing things at home, and he doesn't know when he'll be back after he left. Jiang Zuo said that he might as well sell the house, and those old furniture and discarded items may also be able to Change some money."
Jiang Dingzhou nodded lightly, lowered his eyes and remained silent.
Shi Yinglan used to have a cold face and a warm heart, and was naturally defensive, so she dragged Bai Su and chattered for a long time, for fear that he and Jiang Zuo were not familiar with each other, and would go to other places and be bullied.
At the same time, Jiang Zuo, who was supposed to stay at home, appeared in a long-abandoned factory. On the floor in front of him were piles of daily necessities, ranging from towels and toothbrushes to wardrobes and beds. all available.
Jiang Zuo is like a beast that has just woken up. Changing from his laziness and depression in the past, he walks leisurely, like a king patrolling his territory, checking everything carefully. At the end, the eyes hidden under the glasses slightly Squinting, revealing an innocent and evil smile, like a child who has succeeded in playing a prank.
In the empty factory building, a whisper came suddenly, "It's finally coming to an end..." It was not in vain for him to go from the book to the real world.
There were two long black cloth bags parked in the corner. Jiang Zuo picked up a pot of oil and walked over slowly with a slight smile on his face.
The long ropes tied above the pockets were untied one by one, and the black cloth was shaken off, revealing two pale, lifeless faces.
Jiang Zuo raised his hand and poured oil on the two corpses, and then lit it with a lighter without hesitation. The raging flames rose from the ground and spread rapidly. Another person next to him.
The man was in his 20s, with a very thin body and extremely pale skin, as if he hadn’t seen the sun all year round. He was wearing a shirt and shorts that should appear in early summer, and he was wearing flip-flops. Otaku image.
This person seemed to have been dead for a long time, but there was a thin layer of white frost sticking to his body, he should have just been removed from the low-temperature environment, and the rot was not beyond the tolerance of normal people.
Before leaving, Jiang Zuo picked up the black peaked cap on the window sill and put it on, hid his brows and eyes, and smiled at the smoky factory building, "Goodbye, Jiang Zuo."
Bai Su and the others had a great chat, and the sky gradually darkened unknowingly. Although Shi Yinglan felt unfulfilled, she knew that Bai Su and Jiang Zuo probably had a lot of things to do right now, so it was not good to delay any longer. He packed two desserts, stuffed them into Bai Su's hands, and then sent him away.
Seeing Shi Yinglan's reluctance, Jiang Dingzhou couldn't help being a little jealous, and said in a muffled voice: "It's just going to work in other places, and I will come back. Why do you make yourself so sad?"
Shi Yinglan stared blankly at the boy's fading figure outside the window, and said in a daze, "I don't know why, but I always feel that I will never see my second cousin again..."
Jiang Dingzhou looked at her worriedly: "You've been too tired recently, you've started to think wildly, you should take a good rest for a while."
"Maybe." Shi Yinglan agreed noncommittally, she didn't understand what was wrong with herself, did she start to feel sad like other girls?
It stands to reason that Shi Yinglan is not a very emotional person, most of the time she is rational and calm, and it is this that deeply attracted Jiang Dingzhou, making him unable to part with it anyway. Seeing Shi Yinglan's emotions at this time Suddenly a little down, Jiang Dingzhou suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
Suddenly, Jiang Dingzhou's eyes caught a familiar object. He pointed to a pot of spider plants placed on the windowsill, with a look of surprise on his usually rigorous and restrained face, and asked in an unsteady voice: "What is this?"
Shi Yinglan followed his line of sight and saw that pot of tender and lovely Chlorophytum stretching out its tender leaves, dancing gently in the breeze, and a small translucent card was hung on the creeping thin stem, Shi Yinglan explained : "Young people in the store like to stick wishing paper on plants and background walls. It's not surprising. As for this pot, well, it seems that my second cousin moved it from home."
Jiang Dingzhou could hardly maintain his gentlemanly demeanor, he hurriedly stood up, took off the small card, pinched it between his fingers to check it, and said excitedly: "It's this one, that's right, it must be..."
Shi Yinglan was taken aback by him: "What's wrong with you, is there something wrong with this card?"
The night wind was blowing, and the card accidentally fell on the ground. Jiang Dingzhou bent down to pick it up, but he saw something, but suddenly he looked horrified, and said in disbelief, "How could this happen, no, it won't..."
Shi Yinglan didn't take it seriously: "Isn't this the English letter j? Why are you making such a fuss?"
That's right, there are black bold traces carved on the card, extending down at a slant, and then turning a little arc, doesn't it look like the letter j?
Jiang Dingzhou picked up the card, looked at it over and over in the palm of his hand, and murmured: "Wrong, I was wrong, not l..."
There were some messy pictures in his mind, and something was about to come out. Jiang Dingzhou wanted to chase Bai Su, but that white figure had already been swallowed up by the endless night, and now it might be too late.
After that, Bai Su really left the city with Jiang Zuo and never came back...
