Is this the fat orange you dropped?

Xie Xiaobao thought about it. When He Qi got along with him, he always looked like a good man. Except when he was not smiling, he looked a little gloomy, but most of the time he was easy to get along with.

But He Yu would definitely not harm him, Xie Xiaobao nodded seriously, "I remember."

That's what he said, but He Qi helped him after all, so I should still thank him. Xie Xiaobao sent a message to He Qi, saying that he had time to invite him to dinner.

He Qi didn't seem to be looking at his phone, and didn't reply to the message until the next morning. He was not polite, and made an appointment with Xie Xiaobao for a time and place to eat.

The dinner appointment was in the afternoon, and Xie Xiaobao took a taxi there after he had finished his driving practice at noon.

He Qi drove over by himself, and arrived earlier than Xie Xiaobao. When Xie Xiaobao came in with the waiter, he was already looking at the menu.

"Here." Seeing him, He Qi raised his hand and waved.

Xie Xiaobao walked over and sat down opposite him, a little sorry for being late.

He Qi waved his hand and returned the menu to him, "It's all from my family, you're welcome."

After ordering, the two chatted while waiting for the food to be served.

He Qi is very talkative, he can talk about everything from news and current affairs to gossip and entertainment, but Xie Xiaobao has always been a listening character.

"Speaking of...have you read the latest online news?" He Qi lowered his voice.

His voice suddenly lowered, and his expression was also mysterious. Xie Xiaobao was infected by his attitude, and even his expression became a little nervous.

"What news?" Xie Xiaobao also asked in a low voice.

He Qi leaned closer to him and said, "I heard that in our district, a lot of people have disappeared for no apparent reason..."

"Some people say that at the intersection ahead, there are always people in white clothes wandering the road at night..."

"It's fake..." Xie Xiaobao got a little hairy from what he said, rubbed his arms vigorously and said, "If it's true, why haven't the police heard anything about so many people missing."

He Qi sat up straight and smiled, "Don't you believe this?"

Xie Xiaobao shook his head, and said with an upright face: "Feudal superstition is outrageous."

He Qi was amused by him and laughed, just at the moment when the waiter served the dishes, the two of them changed the subject and chatted about something else.

They chatted while eating, and it was almost six o'clock after eating. Xie Xiaobao looked at the time, and it was time for He Yu to go home from get off work.

He called the waiter over to settle the bill, and told He Qi that he had to go back first.

He Qi joked, "So punctual, did Xiao Yu set up a gate control?"

Xie Xiaobao shook his head and said no, with a shy smile.

"I'll take you back, I happened to drop by and have something to do over there." He Qi stood up and wanted to send him back.

Xie Xiaobao still remembered He Yu's words, and didn't want to trouble He Qi too much, but He Qi's attitude was very persistent, Xie Xiaobao couldn't refuse too bluntly, and finally got into the car.

"Where do you live?"

Xie Xiaobao told him the address, He Qi started the car, turned around, and drove to Xie Xiaobao's house first.

After driving for a while, when I passed an intersection, it happened to be a red light, the long traffic flow stopped, and the time sign of the red light counted down slowly.

"That's where the accident is said on the Internet." He Qi lowered the car window and pointed to the sidewalk on the left.

There are thick and lush old trees growing on both sides of the sidewalk, and the dense canopy will cover the sky tightly.

Xie Xiaobao looked at the sidewalk with chills on his back, he shrank his neck cowardly, that road is a road he often walks, he would go there every day to learn how to drive, and it is easy to ride a small yellow car Ten minutes away.

The red light turned green, and the traffic ahead started to move again. He Qi seemed to mention it casually, and concentrated on driving without saying anything more.

It was not far from Xie Xiaobao's house after crossing the intersection, He Qi parked the car at the entrance of the community, "I still have something to do, so I won't send you in."

Xie Xiaobao nodded, thanked him, and walked quickly to his apartment building.

It was just the beginning of spring, it was getting dark early, and it was already dark before seven o'clock. Xie Xiaobao remembered what He Qi said just now, and felt a little nervous. He quickened his pace and walked to a crowded place before slowing down. up the speed.

He Yu had already come back first, today Xie Xiaobao was not at home for dinner, so he casually ordered a bowl of noodles, and when Xie Xiaobao came home, he had just finished eating and was about to wash the dishes.

With a "snap", Xie Xiaobao slammed the door hard, patted his chest and exhaled.

He Yu asked strangely: "What's wrong?" Why did he look shocked.

Xie Xiaobao stepped forward and hugged his waist, buried his face in his chest, felt He Yu's warm warmth, he was a little relieved, and murmured to him the strange story He Qi said, "You said what He Qi said is that true?"

He Yu had also heard about this matter, but it was all rumors on the Internet. There was no movement from the paper media or the local police, and no one knew if it was true or not.

"Just don't go there in the future. How can there be such a ghost? Even if it's true, it's probably someone pretending to be a ghost." He Yu patted him on the back, still a little puzzled, "Isn't your second brother just doing Fengshui? of?"

I have been fascinated by it since I was a child, so why am I afraid of becoming like this.

Xie Xiaobao let go of him, and said unconvinced: "Feng Shui doesn't see ghosts every day."

He Yu laughed, reached out and rubbed his head, "Okay, I won't go there anymore, I'll ask the driver at home to take you off?"

Xie Xiaobao shook his head, he was a little hairy when he walked in a place with few people at night, there is nothing to be afraid of in broad daylight, and he is not such a hypocritical cat.

"Don't be so troublesome, I just don't go that way in the future."

He Yu pinched his face, and said with a smile: "It's not bad to let me send you off for a while."

Xie Xiaobao kicked his calf with a puffy face.

He Yu laughed, bent down and kissed him, then went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

……

The next day at four o'clock in the afternoon, Xie Xiaobao went to practice driving as usual, but rejected He Yu's proposal to come back to pick him up, and Xie Xiaobao went to the driving school on the little yellow car again, humming.

The driving school is only ten minutes away from the community. When crossing the intersection, Xie Xiaobao looked at the shady sidewalk and remembered those white figures floating in the middle of the night. He rubbed his arms, took out his mobile phone and checked the time. There is still plenty of time for the appointment, so I decided to go another way.

There are two roads to the driving school. The road he has been taking is facing the main road. There are many cars, the sidewalk is wide and the woods are lush, and there are big trees for shade along the way.

The other road had to detour a bit, but it wasn't too far, and the weather was not bad today, Xie Xiaobao hesitated for a moment, then turned to ride to the other side.

This road deviates from the main road, and the flow of vehicles and people has decreased a lot. Xie Xiaobao rode forward for a certain distance, and there were almost no people or cars passing by.

Striding on the little yellow car, Xie Xiaobao took out his mobile phone with one hand to check the time, but suddenly his eyes widened.

Half an hour has passed since he crossed the intersection. When he was checking the time at the intersection, it was still ten past four, but now it is four forty-two.

He has walked this road twice, and it is a straight road. After riding forward for 10 minutes, he can see the training ground of the driving school after turning a corner.

But now, the body is still stepping on the pedals due to instinct, and the wheels make a clear turning sound. The road ahead is one diameter long, and the turning intersection is nowhere in sight.

Xie Xiaobao slammed down the brakes, and the little yellow car rushed forward in inertia. He stabilized his body with one foot on the ground, and looked back in panic.

The road when we came was the same as the one ahead, a big road leading straight through, except for the scenery on both sides, there was no human voice.

Holding the handle of the car tightly, Xie Xiaobao swallowed nervously, parked the car on the side of the road, groped on both sides of the road, and found that those houses looked very close, but after walking past, he would find that they were always there Where you can touch it but you can't touch it.

Like some kind of hallucination.

Xie Xiaobao got on the bike again, and tried to walk forward.

He kicked the pedals, the wheels rolled over the ground and made a clear friction sound, the little yellow car creaked forward, but suddenly there was an identical creaking sound from behind.

Xie Xiaobao paused, turned his head in horror, and saw a small yellow car riding forward from far behind.

The person was too far away, Xie Xiaobao couldn't see clearly, but it seemed that he was also a pedestrian who strayed into this place like him.

Xie Xiaobao tried to call out to the people behind, "Hey, are you trapped too?"

The person riding the yellow bike seemed to raise his head, Xie Xiaobao couldn't see his face clearly, anyway, he couldn't get out for a while, so the people parked behind followed up.

The little yellow car was getting closer, Xie Xiaobao fanned the wind with his hands, covered his forehead with his hands, and squinted at the people who were getting closer to him.

The people in the yellow car were wearing a large black sportswear and a peaked cap. Xie Xiaobao waved at him, and the people in the car raised their heads to look at him, revealing their faces under the cap.
