his kisses are sweet

Chapter 406

Ah Shu was a little strange, who could it be so late?
She turned on the light again and walked over, but she didn't open the door right away, but leaned over the cat's eye and looked out.

Unexpectedly, the corridor was empty and there was no one there.

Is it a prank?

She frowned, and waited at the door for a while, seeing that there was still no movement, she planned to go back to the bedroom, but she didn't expect that just as she reached the door of the bedroom, the doorbell rang again.

Ah Shu was suddenly a little annoyed, thinking of some psychopath who didn't sleep in the middle of the night and went to other people's houses to ring the doorbells, strode over and was about to open the door to scold people, but suddenly looked out of the cat's eyes carefully, but in sight The moment they gathered together, they saw the lights in the corridor suddenly go out, and then the vision was plunged into darkness. There seemed to be something surging in the darkness, which made people terrified for no reason.

A chill ran down Ah Shu's back, she subconsciously took a step back, her fingers holding the doorknob also trembled slightly.

Who is it?
Prank or intentional?

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and suddenly, Ah Shu's face turned pale.

Because this scene is so familiar!
When Nian Nian was just six months old, she had a very severe high fever. Ah Shu carried her to the hospital for several times to lie down, but the fever kept coming back and forth, so she couldn't get better at night almost all night. Closing his eyes, after three consecutive days of staying up, finally on the night of the third day, Nian Nian's fever finally subsided completely.

At this time, Ah Shu, who hadn't closed his eyes for almost three days and three nights, was exhausted. Just when he breathed a sigh of relief and planned to rest for a while, the circuit suddenly cut off with a "snap".

And Shen Nian who was about to fall asleep burst into tears because of this movement.

Ah Shu suddenly felt miserable, thinking that the power outage was really untimely, because Xu Ying was not at home at that time. During the publicity period, the workload was more than three times the normal amount. For this reason, Xu Ying went out early and returned late every day. For a day or two, she worked overtime and stayed late, and even stayed directly at the company. I got a text message from her telling me not to go home that day.

Shen Nian was crying violently, his voice hoarse due to high fever was like a whimpering cat, scratching Ah Shu's whole heart.

She couldn't even get away and went to the living room to find a spare candle, turned on the phone light in a hurry, and started coaxing with thoughts.

I don't know if it's because she just recovered from a serious illness, but Shen Nian's crying this time was particularly emotional, no matter what she couldn't coax her, Ah Shu tried to coax her for half an hour before she finally calmed down. When Xiaoguai fell asleep in her arms, she was already half leaning on the head of the bed, so tired that she didn't even bother to lift her fingers.

Ah Shu was extremely tired, but she was also afraid that Shen Nian's high fever would relapse after the crying just now. Although she was sleepy, she still forced herself to concentrate. She vaguely heard a knock on the door. She didn't know who was knocking on the door. Who, but she didn't have the strength to pay attention to it, and the person who knocked on the door gave up after knocking for a while without any results.

But after a while, she heard the voices of men and women talking. Due to the average sound insulation effect of the apartment, she could vaguely think that they were talking about the problem of circuit maintenance.

Ah Shu's energy suddenly became more focused. She didn't have time to charge her phone today, and the phone's power was almost exhausted due to the lighting just now. Since it was the maintenance personnel who came, she thought about asking him to check the battery of her apartment together. Circuit, in case Nian Nian has an unexpected situation, she can't find it in time.

But as soon as she moved a little, Shen Nian in her arms writhed uncomfortably, still moaning, as if she was about to cry again, Ah Shu was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and listened outside the door. It gradually became quiet, thinking that the maintenance personnel had already left, so she gave up this idea, and fell asleep with Shen Nian in her arms.

Ah Shu didn't sleep for long, when she was woken up by a loud noise, the room was still pitch black, but her phone's battery showed that it was low.

She glanced at Shen Nian who was still sleeping in her arms, checked that the temperature on her forehead was still normal, then turned off the light on her mobile phone, pressed her painful temples to get up, and wanted to quiet the people outside so as not to wake her up again My child, but I never thought that I would see such a scene when I opened the door.

I saw several police officers around the door of the apartment opposite her. They were holding flashlights, some were cordoning off, some were taking pictures, and some were on the phone.

This is an old-fashioned residential complex with limited floor space and only two houses on each floor. Ah Shu remembered that the people who lived opposite seemed to be a young couple.

What happened?
She froze and quickly asked, "Comrade policeman, what happened?"

The head of the police officer heard the movement and turned his head to look at her with a little surprise in his eyes. After he showed his police card to prove his identity, he pointed behind her and asked, "You are the resident opposite, and you have been at home all night. ?”

Ah Shu nodded, "Yes, my surname is Shen."

The police officer frowned upon hearing this, and asked her, "Miss Shen, since you've been at home, have you heard any strange noises before?"

She shook her head, "No, my child is sick. I have been coaxing her just now, and I didn't hear any strange sounds."

Hearing this, the policeman glanced into the dark door behind her, "Could it be that your home also has a power outage?"

Ah Shu didn't know why he paid attention to the problem of her home's electrical circuit, but he replied honestly: "Yes, the power went out for no reason. I saw that there was no power outage in other places, so I don't know if there is something wrong with my home's electrical circuit... But It seemed that some maintenance personnel came to overhaul it just now, but because the child was crying and making noise, I didn't go to open the door."

Hearing this, the police officer shouted behind him, "Xiao Li, go and check the main power switch on this building."

Not long after he finished speaking, he heard a young man's voice reply: "Captain Liu, the circuit of the main gate has been cut off, I'll connect it now."

Half a minute later, Ah Shu heard a soft "bang" on the top of her head, and the surrounding area was restored to light. At the same time, amidst the moving figures, she saw a large pool of red and black blood stained on the floor of the opposite apartment. , looks terrifying...

A feeling of uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart, and Ah Shu's voice trembled slightly, "Comrade policeman, is this...?"

"There was a robbery and homicide case just now."

Hearing this, Ah Shu trembled uncontrollably, "Murder?"

Liu Dui shook his head, "It should be said that it was an attempted murder. The seriously injured woman has been sent to the hospital for rescue, and her life is not out of danger. Ms. Shen, since you are the only insider of this case, I may ask you to cooperate with us." investigation."

After getting Ah Shu's promise, Team Liu began to ask her questions in a procedural manner, "First of all, I want to ask, Miss Shen, do you live here alone with your child?"

Ah Shu shook his head, "No. I still have a roommate, but she worked overtime at the company today and didn't come back, so it's just me and my child at home tonight."

"Is your roommate a girl too?"

"Yes."

"What about the circuit maintenance personnel you just mentioned?"

Ah Shu frowned and thought for a while before answering: "I'm not very clear about the specifics. My child has a high fever and is very unstable these days. After the sudden power outage scared her just now, she kept crying and fussing. When coaxing her, it seemed that there was a knock on the door outside, but the child was crying so much that I had no time to pay attention to it. Later, I vaguely heard someone talking, which seemed to be about repairing the circuit. Originally, I wanted to ask him to help me Fix it, but the child insisted that I would not let me open the door. After a while, I heard no movement outside, so I gave up, and finally I was too tired, so I fell asleep with the child."

Team Liu pursed his lips when he heard the words, and he asked her: "Miss Shen, can you take me to see your child?"

"Okay." Ah Shu brought him into the house.

On the hospital bed, Nian Nian sleeps delicately, and it's rare for her to sleep so peacefully in the past few days.

Team Liu took a look at Niannian, then turned to look at her, and said thoughtfully: "Miss Shen, I think you should be grateful for your child's illness, because she may have saved your life."

Half a month later, the case was solved and the murderer was arrested, but the information Liu Dui gave Ah Shu was enough to make her tremble with fear.

According to him, the gangster is a habitual offender. Before he attacked, he had been wandering around the neighborhood for several days to observe the situation of the residents. Because of Xu Ying's recent overtime work, the murderer mistakenly believed that she was living alone with her child and that she did not resist. Ability, selected her as the primary target, first cut off the circuit in her apartment, and then pretended to be a circuit repairer to lure her into the trap, and took the opportunity to break into the house and rob.

But the gangster didn't expect that the apartment she lived in had an old-fashioned circuit. When he cut off her circuit, he also cut off the circuit of the residents opposite. When he knocked on the door, Ah Shu didn't answer the door in time because of Nian Nian, but The knock on the door alarmed the neighbors.

The resident next door was originally a couple, but the man happened to be on a business trip that day. Seeing the girl alone, the gangster thought it was an opportunity, and wanted to defile her after taking the money. The girl resisted violently and quietly dialed her boyfriend’s number, but unexpectedly In the end, it was discovered by the gangsters, who became angry and committed murder. The girl's boyfriend quickly called the police, but when the police arrived, the girl was already dying. Fortunately, her life was saved after rescue.

In other words, if Ah Shu hadn't opened the door because of Nian Nian's crying, then that young girl's fate would be her fate!
Maybe it will only get worse, because she still has Shen Nian...

At the same time as the past was flooding in, the doorbell rang again, and Ah Shu withdrew his hand that was already holding the doorknob like an electric shock.

She looked at the door blocking the darkness in horror, her face turned pale with fright, and her feet even retreated unconsciously until she reached the sofa and had nowhere to retreat!

Who is outside?

Will he break in?

What should she do?
Ah Shu's head was in a mess, and she couldn't concentrate at all. She forced herself to calm down, and fumbled for her phone.

Call the police!

Yes, call the police!

But she rummaged through her bag for a long time but didn't find her mobile phone. Her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she left her mobile phone on Gu Rugui's car just now?

The doorbell was silent for a while and then began to ring regularly. The sharp sound pierced into Ah Shu's eardrums, like a magic sound, stimulating every nerve in her body.

The pool of blood that stained the floor of the Jiangcheng apartment almost drowned her.

With trembling fingers, Ah Shu turned off all the lights in the room, took out a fruit knife from under the coffee table, and crouched in the corner of the sofa holding her head in horror, covering her ears, refusing to listen to all the sounds.

But the doorbells seemed to be ringing endlessly, they were pervasive like moths, and then there seemed to be knocks on the door, which became more and more urgent, and finally turned into knocking on the door!
With a crisp sound of "bang", Ah Shu saw that the door was kicked open from the outside, and a tall man rushed in. She yelled in horror, holding a fruit knife, and pointed at him regardless. go.

A familiar muffled sound sounded, and the warm liquid slipped from the back of her hand. The liquid made her hand tremble.

She looked at the man in front of her, her lips could not help trembling, "Gu Rugui..."

After saying those words, a pair of powerful arms suddenly wrapped her tightly around her, and Gu Rugui's unique dark voice sounded in her ears, "It's me."

The simple two words made Ah Shu burst into tears, and she trembled like chaff from fear, "Brother Gu, there's a lot of blood... I'm afraid, I'm so afraid."

What she said was a tighter hug. At that moment, Ah Shu felt breathless, but the fear in his heart began to dissipate slowly.

"With me here, don't be afraid." Gu Rugui kissed Ah Shu's hair, comforting her softly.

In his impression, Shen Shu is not like a girl in the traditional sense, like other girls are afraid of mice, but she is the kind of person who can catch mice and play with them.

If he remembered correctly, this was the first time she said she was afraid in front of him.

For a person like her who knocked out teeth and swallowed blood to say the word "fear", it must have been frightened to the extreme.

Gu Rugui hugged the woman in his arms tightly, moved his lips from her hair to the corners of her eyes, and really tasted the salty taste.

she cried.

His heart suffocated suddenly, Gu Rugui let go of her, and patiently comforted her.

The sudden light made Ah Shu close her eyes subconsciously, and when she opened her eyes to focus on Gu Rugui, her pupils shrank violently.
