Different pupils
Chapter 26
An awkward silence spread throughout the corridor.
People outside the door whispered: "Oh, it's Chinese New Year..."
"I'm seeing blood, my God..."
"I'll just talk about what he does, you guys have to meddle in your own business..."
The corners of Lin Haoren's lips were stretched into a straight line, and he coldly swept across the audience. There was an old lady with gray hair who insisted on squeezing to the door to peek in, "tsk tsk" constantly.
Lin Haoren took a step forward, blocked the door, and said, "Is there something wrong?"
Surrounded by the crowd was a man who looked to be about the same age as Lin Haoren.He has cropped hair, a cotton jacket over a sweater, and gloves. He looks very well-dressed. He only has a sign on his chest that reads "Xiaonan Street Community Sub-district Office" and his name below: Dong Chu.
The man was very tall, about the same size as Xing Yu, half a head taller than Lin Haoren; he had a serious face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a little beard on his chin. He looked very "just".
It's the kind of upright and good guy that you can often see on TV - it's the complete opposite type of Lin Haoren.At first glance, it is very popular with mothers-in-law and aunts.
"Hello." Dong Chu's voice was deep and magnetic, his eyes turned around Lin Haoren's face, and he said, "We received news that there was a sound similar to a fight in your room. Don't worry, we haven't called the police yet. I’m just looking at it on behalf of the community, after all, no one wants to go to the police station to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Sir, please cooperate.”
Lin Haoren said: "It's nothing, it's just that I drank too much and fell down."
Everyone: "..." God damn fell.
Dong Chu looked into the room: "Is there anyone else?"
Lin Haoren hesitated for a moment: "I have a friend. Don't worry, we didn't cause trouble, and you also said it's a big New Year's day."
"Then what's wrong with your hands?" The old lady by the door said, "Xiao Lin, we all know that you haven't had a regular job these years. Hey, you don't want to have a good New Year, but we all want to. You don't want to Bring some messy people..."
Lin Haoren said displeased: "That's my friend, not a mess. Granny Liu, I have a job."
"What's your attitude? I'll talk to you well!" Lin Haoren was born with a fierce face, and it was easy to be misunderstood by others, but if his tone was annoyed, it would be more likely to be annoying. The old lady had a loud voice because of the many people around her. Get up, "Hey, old Shen was still saying a few days ago that the sausages hanging on the balcony disappeared for no reason! Our community is full of old men and women, and you are the only one who lives here. Tell me, his sausages How did it disappear?"
Dong Chu hurriedly reached out his hand to stop it, and frowned: "Mother-in-law, don't talk nonsense without evidence. I'm not here to investigate this today."
"Hey, I've already asked, let him make it clear." The old lady said, "What if he brings some messy friends and affects our property safety? Everyone wants to celebrate the New Year! "
Others didn't speak, just gathered around to watch the good show, and some people kowtowed melon seeds lively, and stood a little farther away, laughing and looking over here.
Lin Haoren felt that the warmth of eating and chatting with Xing Yu just now was gradually taken away from his body, and he massaged his fingers nervously a few times, before he could speak, the door was suddenly opened.
Xing Yu stood at the door, smiling gentlemanly and elegantly, the skin on the side of his face was slightly stained red by alcohol, he frowned, as if he was not standing in a dilapidated apartment building, but in some high-end clubhouse, even in the corridor The lights from all over the place cast a soft halo on him eccentrically.
"Why so noisy?" He gently embraced Lin Haoren's shoulders, and said, "Don't you still need to tidy up the house? Your wound on your hand needs to be bandaged."
Dong Chu glanced at Xing Yu: "This is...?"
"Street office?" Xing Yu glanced at the card on his chest, and stretched out his hand, "Hello, my surname is Xing, and I am a friend of Senior Lin."
"Senior?"
"Ah, we are old classmates." Xing Yu stretched out his hand and looked at his watch, deliberately revealing the golden logo. He was wearing a shirt and trousers, with a graceful demeanor, it was difficult to connect him with Lin Haoren, "Do you have something to do with the senior? It's getting late, can we talk about it tomorrow?"
Dong Chu said: "That's right, someone heard the sound of fighting in Mr. Lin's house, so..."
"Fighting sound? Oh, it must be a misunderstanding." Xing Yu stepped back generously, pointing to the messy ground in the house, "The senior is going to move after the New Year, and I will accompany him to pack things. Didn't the power go out suddenly just now? At home It was a mess, and I didn't know where I kicked it, and I knocked down all the things I packed. Well, the senior's hand was scratched in the same way."
The neighbors didn't believe it: "It's Chinese New Year, pack up now?"
"Hey, you don't know about that." Xing Yu smiled. He seemed to have a good family etiquette, and his voice was clear and pleasant, which was very convincing. Sprinkle rice at the door, and then use orange peels to wear small lights to guide the way, and sprinkle some millet on the road, so that you can tell your ancestors where you have gone, let them follow, and continue to guard the house, suppress evil spirits and exorcise ghosts."
Most of the people in the community are old men and women, and they were stunned when they heard this: "Huh? Is there such a saying?"
"Isn't it?" Xing Yu said nonsense in a serious manner, "Many people have been unlucky after moving. Some people lose money, and some even threaten their lives. Think about it for yourself, has this happened to everyone around you? It was fine before moving, but it will be bad once you move?"
Everyone was stunned to hear this, and then heard Xing Yu say: "I only found out when I was helping the senior to pack things, alas, the feng shui of his house is not very good, and it has a sharp corner. No wonder the senior has had bad luck in the past few years. Always encounter villains."
Some of them heard the way, gave Xing Yu a glance, turned and left, and some didn't hear the voice, and wanted to ask more questions.
"Hey young man, are you a Feng Shui student?"
"How much do you think this is? Can you come to my house and have a look?"
"Is this line of business good money?"
"Closed during the Chinese New Year." Xing Yu pulled Lin Haoren into the house, and said to Dong Chu, "I'm sorry to let you go. Happy New Year."
Dong Chu nodded, closed the door for them, turned around and whispered comfort to the old ladies who were still reluctant.
Blocking the voices outside the door, Lin Haoren glanced at Xing Yu and said in a low voice, "Why are you talking so much nonsense with them?"
"You don't like to explain, let me explain for you." Xing Yu blinked, and pulled the senior to sit on the sofa, "These people are watching people order dishes, and it's Chinese New Year. I don't want your mood to be affected."
He rummaged for iodine and anti-inflammatory ointment, took gauze and bandages, and said, "Give me your hand."
Lin Haoren stretched out his hand, the wound was long but not deep, the blood flowed down the fingers to the palm, it was shocking to see.
Xing Yu was comfortable dealing with outsiders, but now he frowned, and said with guilt in his eyes: "Sorry, I got you in trouble."
Lin Haoren's annoyed mood immediately softened, especially when Xing Yu scolded someone around the corner for him, he said gratefully: "Thank you just now. I'm fine, just a little injury. What happened to that thing?" What? Followed you?"
"It should be." Xing Yu glanced at the messy floor and the overturned dishes before finishing eating, and sighed, "Aren't you suspicious of the whereabouts of those ancient relics? I will send someone there the next day After checking, I searched around the place where the blue light appeared, and found nothing strange. Later, I asked something in the farmhouse at the foot of the mountain. After that, my uncle and I went to the farmhouse for one night. There was an accident and I was admitted to the hospital."
"What?" Lin Haoren was startled, "What happened? Is it important?"
"My dad showed up in time and rescued the person." Xing Yu said, "There has been something following me since then."
Lin Haoren became serious, and grabbed Xing Yu's hand: "What about you? Are you okay?"
Xing Yu smiled contentedly: "Are you worried about me?"
Lin Haoren glared at him.
Xing Yu shrugged: "I'm fine, don't you think it's all right? There's no injury at all. It's just that things are a little troublesome..."
"Does it have something to do with the disappearing ancient objects? Or something from the Ghost Sect?"
"I can't be sure, but the possibility is very high." Xing Yu said, "We have set up a magic circle outside the farmhouse where the accident happened, and the people from the Xing family are guarding it. Nothing will happen for the time being."
"Is this all right?" Lin Haoren pointed to the mess on the ground.
Xing Yu: "...it was an accident."
Lin Haoren crossed his arms and looked at him: "You left alone on purpose, right? If you want to trick, then lure that thing out to find you?"
"Senior is smart." Xing Yu clapped his hands, "It will not appear under the surveillance of the Xing family, so I came to you... But this is only one of the reasons, I really want to celebrate the New Year with you."
"Two birds with one stone, easy to calculate." Lin Haoren said, "Are all of you doing business like this? Have you ever thought about what to do if something really happens?"
Seeing that Lin Haoren turned to leave, Xing Yu hurriedly got up to follow, grabbed his wrist and said lazily, "Senior, don't be angry. I really plan to accompany you. Didn't I invite you to my house at the beginning? Yes You didn't go by yourself."
"Is it my fault?!"
"No, no!" Xing Yu hurriedly said, "I thought it might not come out at the time, and with you and me working together, how could something happen?"
"I don't know anything!" Lin Haoren remembered that he was controlled in an instant, and still had lingering fears, "You think too highly of me."
"It's my fault." Xing Yu hurt Lin Haoren, and he really regrets it.That's why he directly destroyed the thing in a fit of anger, instead of taking it back mercilessly and asking for clarification.
When I go back, I still don't know how to explain to my father and uncle.
Hey, headache.
Lin Haoren looked at the man's guilty look, pursed his lips and said awkwardly: "You...what did you meet? Are you safe now?"
"Not necessarily. In my opinion, it was just an ordinary ghost just now. It was a bit resentful, but there was no reason to kill me. It might be a higher-level ghost."
"Is it still possible?"
"There are also levels among lonely ghosts. The most powerful is the ghost king, who dominates all yin things." Xing Yu said, "It's just that there may not be a ghost king in ten thousand years, and the ghost king will not be allowed to appear in the underworld. It is easy to disturb the boundary between the yang and the underworld. , causing trouble."
Lin Haoren was confused, and made a stop gesture: "What are you going to do next?"
"Isn't the senior afraid of trouble?" Xing Yu shook his head, "Just leave this matter to our professional people, you don't need to know."
Lin Haoren: "..."
Lin Haoren is sure that this guy did it on purpose.The blue light was discovered by him and Xing Yu, and the investigation of the antiquities was also based on his suspicion, and he almost killed Uncle Xing's family.
Now that he has witnessed the death of a wronged soul with his own eyes, his appetite has also been whetted, but the other party lightly said "you don't need to know".
If he was really a heartless, cold-hearted person, he might just let it go.
But he is not!
Xing Yu had saved him several times before, but now he knew that the other party was in danger and was in trouble, how could he act as if he didn't know?
What a hassle!
Lin Haoren wailed inwardly, rubbed his hair fiercely, and said viciously: "I'm not afraid of trouble. Didn't you say that? We will be more efficient if we work together. I can help you."
It was obviously a good intention, but he said it with such a vicious expression, as if he wanted to kill someone to silence him.
Standing under the light, Xing Yu held the medicine in one hand and Lin Haoren's wrist in the other, leaned forward slightly, and smiled softly and proudly.
"Senior, you are so kind."
"……"hateful!
People outside the door whispered: "Oh, it's Chinese New Year..."
"I'm seeing blood, my God..."
"I'll just talk about what he does, you guys have to meddle in your own business..."
