Around

Shen Tucheng was stunned for a moment, then remembered that Lu Zhonghui was Lu Zi.Because everyone usually called him by his nickname, so he couldn't react to the name at first glance.

"Lu Zi should be at school." Shen Tucheng thought for a while and said, "I'll go find him now."

"Wait." Liu Xia subconsciously reached out to stop him, but was bumped into by Shentucheng who had no time to stop.Just for a moment, Liu Xia felt a sharp pain in his arm.

Seeing that Liu Xia's face turned pale instantly, Shen Tucheng was also taken aback, he quickly supported the other's hand and asked, "Are you okay?"

"You...did you take the wrong medicine today..." Liu Xia rubbed her arms in pain and said through gritted teeth.

In fact, even Shentucheng himself didn't realize that when Liu Xia's hand stretched out from behind, he subconsciously struck his artery. The speed was so fast that he didn't even know he had made such a small movement. .

But Gao Jie and Lian Qiao at the side could also see clearly.Gao Jie glanced at Lian Qiaoye, his tone displeased: "What did you do to him?"

What answered him was not a sweet female voice, but a slightly deep male voice.The voice was the same as the previous few times, it floated directly into Gao Jie's ears without opening his mouth: "I didn't do anything."

"I'm not talking about Liu Xia." Gao Jie lowered his face, "I'm referring to Shentu. Since you appeared, he has become less and less like himself...he has become...he has a...a kind of , the hostility to kill gods and ghosts—what did you do to him?"

The voice didn't answer, but asked instead: "Not like himself? Do you know what he looked like before?"

"I don't want to hear your sophistry!"

"I'm not making excuses." He sighed, and his voice was stained with sorrow like water. "I just want to know what he was like before."

Gao Jie couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "At this point, you still don't admit that you know him!"

"I think I know him." He turned a blind eye to Gao Jie's anger, as if lost in memory, and said to himself, "But I really... can't remember."

"When in City W, Liu Yan called you 'Ah Hao' in his car."

"En." When he heard that name, some memories seemed to be awakened - a horse galloped on the vast grassland, the whole body was black, but there was a circle of snow-white mane above the horse's hooves.He knew that it was "Naruga", translated into the words of an ethnic group, it means "God Driving".Someone once told him that the god's car is the car of the gods, and every good man on the grassland wants to have it.

The man in the picture is galloping on the grassland with his arms around him, and then calls his name over and over again, Ah Hao, Ah Hao...

But he never saw that person's face clearly, and he still couldn't remember the name of that ethnic group.He just remembered that the man's hands were big and warm, and his arms were safe.

He misses it so much.

……

"At that time, when he called out the name, you answered." Gao Jie said coldly.

"kindness."

"You still don't know who you are?"

"... Ah Hao? My name is Ah Hao?"

Gao Jie didn't speak, and looked at the other party quietly with his hands folded, his eyes were even piercing - he felt terrible.When he was a ghost in the past, he had seen all kinds of wild ghosts and monsters. They were either broken in body or horrific in appearance, harming both people and ghosts.They are vicious, killing each other, without even the slightest bit of sympathy... He has even seen scenes of monsters swallowing people alive.However, Gao Jie has never been afraid of anything, no matter it is a ghost or a monster.

But now he felt terrified, facing such a gentle ghost, he was terrified.

He couldn't imagine the lonely years of thousands of years. This seemingly weak and deceitful man spent thousands of years alone without knowing anything about himself.

Such a long time is beyond Gao Jie's imagination. No one knows him, and he doesn't know anyone... He doesn't even know who he is.No one was with him, he didn't even have anyone to talk to.He is just like that, has always existed, and has always been lonely.

Loneliness is a terrible thing, it is different from being in a daze.When you are in a daze, time passes quickly. Gao Jie sometimes even thinks that being in a daze gives the brain a good rest.But loneliness is different, loneliness makes time stop.Sometimes I want to move, but I don't know where to go, I want to open my mouth, but I don't know who to tell.This feeling can drive people crazy.

Gao Jie once seriously imagined what he would do if he was the one who waited and searched for a thousand years.He thought about this question for less than 5 minutes, and the answer came out quickly - he would do everything possible to make himself ashes, and he didn't want to leave even a trace of breath.Or, he will go out of his way to kill.At that time, killing became a simple game to pass the time. After a long time, he would no longer feel guilty.

But this ghost named Ah Hao didn't do that, he didn't let himself be wiped out, and he didn't kill anyone—I don't know why Gao Jie was so sure that he didn't kill anyone.He seemed to be able to smell the ghost's breath, not a disgusting rancid smell, but a clear, faint smell of water.He lived his life quietly, but never gave up looking for the truth.Thousands of years have passed, and the pool of water has become deeper and clearer instead of impurities.

What a powerful spiritual power this is!

This ghost was so powerful that Gao Jie felt scared.He would never admit defeat, but today he surrendered. This ghost let him know that being physically strong is not enough. A truly strong person is one who can protect the truest self without having anything.

……

On the other side, the dispute between Liu Xia and Shen Tucheng interrupted Gao Jie's train of thought.Shen Tucheng frowned, and said with disapproval: "The email has been sent out for almost a day, and I don't have time to wait any longer."

"It's not 'I', it's 'we'." Liu Xia shook his head, "You never treat us as a whole...you never let people get close to you." He scratched his hair helplessly and said, "I'm not Worry, just think about it, what day is it today?"

Shen Tucheng was silent.The last weekend of every month is Lu Zhonghui's regular day to visit his grandmother in the countryside.

"I'm afraid he left early at this time." Liu Xia persuaded, "And as far as I know, Grandma Lu Zhonghui's village does not have an Internet cafe. That is to say, even if you want to surf the Internet, you have to wait for him to come back, right?"

Thinking that Lu Zhonghui didn't have a laptop, Shen Tucheng felt a little relieved.But what if Lu Zi read that email before returning to the country?

"Relax." Liu Xia patted Shen Tucheng on the shoulder, "I called and asked on the way back. Before the mail was sent, there was a big accident in your school, which caused a power outage in the entire area. , I didn’t recover until this afternoon.”

Shen Tucheng thought seriously: Guo Kai sent the email at 03:30 this morning, and Lu Zi never stayed up late, so he must have fallen asleep at that time.According to the past practice, Lu Zhonghui would rush to the countryside after having dinner at noon on Friday.There is a class in the morning, so it is unlikely that he has access to the computer... Even if he skipped class, the school area was cut off during that time... After thinking about it for a while, Shentucheng finally felt relieved.

"Guo Kai should be more worried now." Thinking of the vat of corpses in the toilet, Liu Xia said with a bitter face, "There are too many doubts here."

"First is QQ." Gao Jie took up the conversation, "We found out that the last QQ account used by Sun Zhizhe belonged to Guo Kai, and the same number logged in at two places at exactly the same time... Don't you think it's strange? Usually our QQ Logging in from another place, the one that was originally logged in will be forced to go offline, but they can use it at the same time."

"Then there is the method of Die Xian's killing that we have analyzed before." Liu Xia continued tacitly, "Our judgment is: in fact, Die Xian only killed one person, and then the person who was killed killed the second person— - At this point, we tend to think that the first person to be killed was Bai Lu. They used something as a medium, take 308 female dormitory as an example..." Liu Xia stopped talking halfway, and looked worriedly at Even coincidence.

"I'm fine." Lian Qiao said lightly, her expression didn't seem to be affected at all.

Liu Xia patted Lian Qiaoye's head with some distress, and was surprised to find that the other party not only didn't get angry, but even didn't care.He withdrew his hand in doubt, and continued: "We guessed that the death signal in the girls' dormitory was from the previous dead person. I remember that Qiao also said that Xiong Lingling called Bai Lu's name before she died. , Later we also found Chu Feiyan's clothes in Zhou Ying's suitcase."

"And the death signal in the boys' dormitory is even more obvious. Forums, QQ, emails... are obviously transmitted through the Internet." Liu Xia leaned against the wall, thought carefully, and said, "In this way, the problem will come. ——The girls’ dormitory dies one after the other, that is to say, the next one must die after the previous one died. So now, Guo Kai’s email has been sent..."

Does it mean that Guo Kai is dead?If so, where did his body go?

Shen Tucheng frowned, trying his best to restrain the tyrannical factors in his body.To be honest, he sympathized with the deaths of the girls, and once blamed himself for not picking up the jade plate, but he didn't feel angry at all.And when death came to the boys, he couldn't bear it anymore.In his opinion, those big boys are not only his classmates, they are his friends, his brothers.Maybe he, Shen Tucheng, is indifferent by nature, but he is definitely not heartless.

He has never let anyone walk into his heart, and he has never thought of walking into anyone's heart.But his thoughts are actually very simple - it has nothing to do with intimacy, he sincerely treats people in Shentu City, he Shentu City will definitely reciprocate with all his heart.
