Fire to the Abyss

On the top floor of Chengda No. [-] Teaching, old-fashioned tiles divide the back-shaped roof into several independent areas, which are occupied by different students. Some drink, smoke, brag, and fall in love.

However, it was already January at this time, when the cold wind was at its strongest, it was hard to see depraved college students gathering together to disturb the people on the top floor, only a few smokers were leaning on the stairs to puff.

Xia Lin tightened the thin woolen cloth on his body, pulled the scarf to cover his nose, stepped carefully over the cigarette butts on the ground, and found a corner to the north, where two figures were already waiting for him.Xia Lin walked over without saying a word, and kicked Zhao Yang's black down jacket hard.

Zhao Yang patted the shoe prints on his clothes, with a look of grievance on his face, the three of them grew up together, and he was always the one who was bullied.

Liu Xiran rode on Zhao Yang's head all the year round, and over time he became territorial. He pushed away Xia Lin who was trying to ride on Zhao Yang's neck, and protected Zhao Yang behind him like an old hen guarding its cubs: "Hey, hey, Ermu, Don't bully our silly Yang, I discovered it myself, and I don't believe it was an accident. By the way, if you want to investigate this matter, why don't you tell everyone to investigate together, what can you find out if you bring a silly Yang?"

Xia Lin narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and his eyes suddenly cooled down: "Because all of you may be the murderer."

Liu Xiran stared calmly at Xia Lin's dark brown pupils: "December 12th, Saturday, the eldest and second child in the dormitory went out for Christmas with my boyfriend, and the fourth and I were in the dormitory. About 25:09, The fourth child was also called out to play by a friend. I was alone in the dormitory, and my mother sent me a video just after I took a shower. When I picked it up, I checked the time. It was ten past ten. I don't remember, but it didn't take long for the eldest and second child to come back, I didn't see Sister Xue En that day, and I didn't contact Sister Xue En either."

Liu Xiran unlocked the lock screen and handed the phone to Xia Lin: "You can read the chat history, if you still don't believe it, you can call the fourth child now."

Xia Lin took the phone blankly and flicked it quickly. Zhao Yang leaned over and whispered in his ear, "I've read it just now, and I don't think Da Ran is the murderer."

Xia Lin looked at it for a while, then returned the phone to Liu Xiran, and suddenly smiled: "Actually, I didn't doubt you very much, I just thought you were too stupid to get in the way."

Liu Xiran was so angry that he jumped up on the spot and gave Xia Lin a headbutt: "Ermu, how dare you scare your father!"

Liu Xiran, who is 1.6 meters tall, was able to jump up and hit Xia Lin's head while wearing a down jacket that seemed to weigh ten catties. Xia Lin expressed great admiration for her behavior, but she still lowered her face and said coolly: " Here I have only one father, only Xu Luo."

Liu Xiran's usual playful expression immediately returned to seriousness: "Then why do you still doubt him?"

Xia Lin: "Because he wasn't there after I went back to the dormitory that day, and he didn't come back until the next day, and he forgot to buy me beer."

Liu Xiran: "Just because of this? He has no motive?"

Xia Lin said angrily, "Zhao Yang, you didn't explain to her?"

Zhao Yang felt that he was getting smaller and smaller in Xia Lin's pupils, and he stammered, "Actually, I don't understand too much."

Xia Lin returned the hammer Liu Xiran gave him to Zhao Yang, and took a deep breath. It seemed that he still overestimated Zhao Yang's intelligence.He found a clean tile and sat down. He was careful not to scrape the rough tile surface with his scarf, and then he said slowly, "You two idiots, let me start from the beginning..."

December 12, Christmas, Saturday.The shops inside and outside the campus are filled with fruitful Christmas trees, and various festive patterns are sprayed on the clear glass windows with various colors of paint. The shop assistants also put on red Christmas hats and greeted them with smiles. Come and send, trying to create a relaxed and cheerful festive atmosphere suitable for consumption.

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, Xia Lin stirred the cappuccino on the table boredly, making the smiling faces carefully framed by the clerk completely unrecognizable.Usually at this time, he would lie paralyzed in the dormitory, playing games while waiting for Xu Luo to feed him.

This day was different, Li Xueen asked him to meet at the cafe at [-] pm, saying that he had something important to tell him.Li Xueen is an old member of the detective agency, a senior in the Department of Chemistry. She is very beautiful, with a strong personality but takes good care of the younger members.Not long after Xia Lin joined the club as a freshman, Li Xueen proposed to date him, but Xia Lin rejected him directly.Li Xueen didn't bother anymore, and later she changed a few boyfriends, and the atmosphere between the two of them was not awkward, so Li Xueen asked him out, although he felt a little abnormal, he still agreed.

Anyway, he is a big man, so he won't be molested.I thought so.

Xia Lin drank the cup of cappuccino that was so sweet that it was too sweet, and the wind chime on the door made a crisp sound when it was hit. He looked up, and Li Xueen, who was dressed up in fancy clothes, opened the door and entered the coffee shop.Xia Lin withdrew his gaze and looked down at the time. It was 29:[-], he thought, she had better have something important to save the half hour he waited for.

Li Xueen wore a snow-white fur and was carrying a black patent leather bag. The plush bunny hanging on the bag did not match her glamorous and sexy temperament.Her skin was fair, and her ruby-like lips looked extremely alluring under the dim light of the cafe.Ever since she entered the door, several men's eyes had been glued to her.Under the scorching gaze, Li Xueen walked to Xia Lin and sat down in small steps. He put down his bag and straightened his wind-blown hair, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I'm late." No apologies.

Xia Lin suddenly couldn't connect the person in front of him with the girl who confessed to him two years ago.At that time, she seemed to be cleaner.

Xia Lin: "It's okay, what does senior sister want to tell me?"

Li Xueen didn't answer right away. She took off her scarf and took off her coat. She took out the phone in the coat and put it on the table. She called the clerk over and ordered a cup of white coffee. "The heating in this store is really on."

Li Xueen took off her jacket, and her curvy figure was immediately revealed. She straightened the clavicle chain around her neck and said, "Oh, I'm so tired from the exams these two days, Xia Lin, do you want some dessert? I'll treat."

Xia Lin lowered her head to prevent Li Xueen from seeing the unbearable expression on her face. After three seconds, she regained control of her facial muscles, put on a friendly smile and said, "Senior sister, I don't like desserts, you What can you do with me?" He just wanted to go back to the dormitory and eat the dinner his father brought him.

"What's the hurry, anyway, you'll be fine later, sit here with me for a while longer."

At this time, a male clerk in a dark brown uniform came over with a tray, gracefully put a cup of fragrant white coffee in front of Li Xueen, nodded to her, and walked away briskly.

The clerk looks pleasing to the eye, and the service attitude is considerate and thoughtful. Li Xueen is in a good mood, picks up the ceramic cup, and slowly drinks.Although her posture was considered elegant, Xia Lin was not in the mood to appreciate it.He grabbed his phone and sent a message to Xu Luo: Dad, give me another can of beer today.

A few seconds later, I received Xu Luo's concise reply: Yes.

"Xia Lin, why is it so funny to watch?" Seeing Xia Lin looking at the phone screen, Li Xueen raised her thin lips slightly, and moved her face curiously, wondering what Xia Lin was looking at more interestingly than looking at her.

Xia Lin immediately returned the phone interface to the main screen, and at the same time raised her hand to gently cover her nose. The smell of perfume on her body was too strong.

Li Xueen was rejected silently, so he could only retreat to his seat in a boring manner, and said something that made Xia Lin regret coming here today: "Xia Lin, let's date. I know you don't have a girlfriend yet, but even if you do It doesn't matter."

"Is this what you want to tell me today?" From the hormonal aura emanating from Li Xueen's body, Xia Lin did feel that she had awakened in some way, but she didn't expect that the target was him.

Li Xueen: "Yes."

Xia Lin: "Sister, I told you the first time you confessed to me, you are not my type."

At this time, Li Xueen's mobile phone on the table vibrated, and the screen lit up. Li Xueen looked down, and Xia Lin subconsciously glanced at it, but before he could fully see it, Li Xueen quickly turned off the screen, and then She raised her head and smiled mysteriously: "But it's different now, I have a reason why you must associate with me."

Xia Lin was surprised, was this threatening him?He hadn't figured out why he had to date Li Xueen, Li Xueen's delicately made-up face suddenly magnified in front of his eyes.She stretched out her hand to lift Xia Lin's chin, and quickly pushed her red lips up.

"Senior sister, please don't do this, I won't date you." Xia Lin was completely angry, and bit the word "senior sister" extremely hard, pushed Li Xueen away mercilessly, and wiped her face hard with the back of her hand. Wipe your lips, as if you want to clean something dirty.

Xia Lin's personal territory was violated, and she didn't show mercy. Li Xueen fell back to her seat heavily, with one side of her hair brushed against her face, looking a little embarrassed.After a while, she stretched out her hand to brush her hair, but there was a strange smile on her face: "Don't beg me later."

"Cut, boring." Xia Lin walked out of the cafe without looking back, shutting the discussions of the people behind him inside the glass door - in order to maximize the benefits of the cafe, the seats are very close together, and their conversations The guests in the surrounding circle should be able to hear and write a few words.

"Is this kid crazy, rejecting such a good-looking girl?"

"Who knows, maybe his girlfriend is prettier, after all he's pretty handsome..."

"How handsome is this slender boy, he doesn't have any muscles at first glance..."

Standing in front of the coffee shop, Xia Lin smiled helplessly, reached out and patted the collar of the coat, trying to pat off the strong smell of perfume.He thought that he really had to learn from Xu Luoduo to refuse others.

Not long after Xia Lin walked, he met Zhao Yang and three other people in his dormitory. Zhao Yang said that they were going to eat hot pot.So Xia Lin logically went to have a hot pot meal. As for the food his father prepared for him, he was very confident in his stomach capacity.

A few people ate a hot pot happily, and chatted a few words and bragged for a while.Zhao Yang just checked out and asked the big guy to leave, Xia Lin took out his mobile phone and looked at it. At 09:30, his father didn't send a message asking him why he wasn't in the dormitory.He seriously suspected that his father had a son outside.

A group of people strolled outside the low courtyard wall in the southern district. Several people who had always flouted the school rules and regulations and had long legs looked at each other and smiled. Regardless of Zhao Yang's obstruction, they climbed in through the courtyard wall one by one. Forest.Turning in from here can save at least 15 minutes of travel, and Xia Lin suddenly wants to go back earlier.

Pass through an old playground, and then pass through a few old school buildings that are out of use, and you will arrive at the 7th male dormitory.This route was developed when a few mobs in Xia Lin and Zhao Yang's dormitory secretly went to drink. This place has been abandoned for a long time. There are no people during the day, and it is even more silent at night.

Strangely, there was a person leaning against the bench next to the old playground that day.

Xia Lin glanced at her. The familiar brown hair and white fur was undoubtedly Li Xueen.He thought of Li Xueen's phrase "don't beg me later", how could she be so quick later?How did she know that she had been here?

Xia Lin just wanted to reduce the sense of presence and walk away quickly, but Zhao Yang saw the person on the bench with a casual glance, "Hey, that seems to be Sister Xue En." Xia Lin had a toothache, Zhao Yang, this person, It's just too enthusiastic. Whenever I see an acquaintance, I will happily go up to say hello, regardless of whether they are embarrassed or not.Zhao Yang called "Sister Xueen" a few times, but Li Xueen didn't respond.

Xia Lin wanted to grab Zhao Yang and leave quickly, but his hand was empty, Zhao Yang had already walked towards Li Xueen.

"Sister Xueen, why are you ignoring me?" Zhao Yang reached out and patted Li Xueen on the shoulder, and the person on the bench fell down.Zhao Yang stretched out his hand to help him, but suddenly he threw away his hand and sat on the ground exhausted, his expression became very frightened, as if he had seen a ghost.

"What's wrong?" Xia Lin sensed something was wrong immediately, and walked towards Zhao Yang quickly.

Zhao Yang said tremblingly: "She, she is good, so strange..."

Xia Lin immediately pushed back the hair on Li Xueen's face, revealing a pale and distorted face. Li Xueen's facial features were considered qualified, and could be called good-looking after makeup modification, but at this time they were all slightly shifted. It made the whole face look extremely hideous and terrifying, and judging from the time and place where she appeared, she really looked like a female ghost.

Xia Lin's pupils shrank suddenly, and after eating the hot pot, the heater scattered all over her body, and the coldness of the winter night took the opportunity to climb up.Xia Lin forced herself to calm down, and stretched out her hand to feel her breath. She couldn't detect any faint breathing, but she could vaguely smell the faint smell of bitter almonds from Li Xueen's mouth.

Xia Lin yelled at the curious people who came over: "She's dead, call the police!"

The two boys were so frightened that their legs limp and fell to their knees on the spot. The other boy was not much better, and tremblingly, he took out his mobile phone and called the police.
