sunk in yesterday

Chapter 68: A Gift to the Master

Children's diaries are short but focused.

It took less than a minute to read a few pages, and Xia Zhuo could see the key points at a glance.

"White Rabbit... Hey, Guan Yuzhou. I thought of what I saw in the toilet cubicle that day. The box that Qiu Yinghua opened at that time did reveal something white. I remember the appearance of that box. Be careful, I don’t want to give it to others as it is written here, it should contain the so-called ‘white rabbit’.”

Guan Yuzhou pondered for a moment, then nodded.He put the diary back to its original place, turned around and asked Lao Yu, "Does your daughter have a classmate named Feng Wenyao?"

Lao Yu should be familiar with this name, so he replied without thinking: "There is this child, and his father often teaches him how to play in the family yard."

"Where is his home?"

"In the south of the town, there is a cart under the red roof wall."

After getting the key clue, the three of them stopped staying for long.Seeing that they were about to leave, Lao Yu chased them down from the stairs and asked if this kid had something to do with his daughter's disappearance.

Xia Zhuo leaned over and said goodbye to him, saying that he would find out if it had anything to do with it tonight.When he walked halfway, he belatedly said to Guan Yuzhou: "Is it a bit ambiguous what I said? He wouldn't think that his daughter had a puppy love and then jumped out of the window in the middle of the night to go out for a private meeting."

Guan Yuzhou smiled, "I can't tell."

Until now, they finally found common ground among the missing children.

If it is really the same as what they imagined, the disappearance will never end, and Feng Wenyao who appeared in this diary is ranked first on the list of what will happen next.

Judging from the scattered clues and diaries, Qiu Yinghua should be a primary school student who was bullied and had no friends.But he also wanted friends, and even brought his treasure to school to share with others, but it turned out to be a thankless task, which made those classmates even worse.

Even more excessive demands were made, but no one really wanted to treat him well.

It was estimated that the child had an accident, so I came back to find an explanation for those classmates who took his toys.

The hearts of the three were as clear as a mirror, and they all thought of going together.

There is no need to discuss the plan anymore, Qi Qi walked south.

The townspeople on the street were scattered, and occasionally one or two came up to talk to them, asking them if they had found out where the children had gone, and when they learned that there was no progress, they walked away with a straight face.

Although I know that the attitude of the townspeople is not very good now, the atmosphere gets worse the further we go forward.

The children were dragged away by the adults in the opposite direction, and the wide-open windows along the street were closed one after another like a plague god, making it clear that they were not welcome to see them.

Guan Yuzhou guessed that this dream also had a hidden deadline.

If the participants fail to resolve the incident before reaching a certain number of missing children, I am afraid that the whole town will rush over with knives like Mrs. Yu.

I thought it would be difficult to find Feng Wenyao's house, but it turns out that there is only one house with a red roof, which can be seen at a glance in a place with a wide view.

The cart next to the wall fell off a wheel, and there were two or three sacks stacked on top of it, with a little sand exposed at the opening, which floated sparsely into the sky when the wind blew.

The sound of hitting balls and giggling came from inside the door one after another. Both father and son were at home, but when Guan Yuzhou knocked on the door, the noise inside disappeared completely, as if all the noises just now were caused by them. hallucination heard.

"Hey, another one who didn't open the door." Xia Zhuo looked in through the crack of the door, but only saw the darkness, and quickly retracted his head, muttering: "What did those people who came yesterday do? "

Guan Yuzhou didn't give up, and after a few minutes of persistence, he finally knocked on the door.

The darkness I saw just now was nothing but someone leaning against the door to block the crack.

The tall and strong middle-aged man showed half of his face from inside, and said with an unfriendly expression: "What's the matter with you, everyone in the family is taking a nap, why are people from the city so rude?"

Xia Zhuo pursed her lips, put her hips on her hips and raised her legs to stand beside Guan Yuzhou: "We walked all the way, and the other houses were quiet, but the ping-ping-pong-pong is so loud in this yard, it's not your turn to take a nap."

"you--"

"Dad? What's wrong... playing ball..."

The anger on the man's face disappeared, and he hurriedly blocked the door, "Yaoyao, go inside and don't come out."

Xia Zhuo glanced at the boy holding an old half-deflated basketball behind the door, "Did you buy this ball for him?"

"Where are balls sold in this small town?" Seeing his son entering the house, the man didn't show any good looks. "He has good motor skills, and he was given out by the No. [-] school in the sports meeting."

Xia Zhuo understood instantly, "Oh~ it must be the sports meeting held in elementary school three years ago."

The man was startled, "It's none of your business."

He was about to close the door again impatiently, but Guan Yuzhou stretched out his hand against the door with no less strength than him, and even forced him to take a step back in a daze.

"This is my home, and you are disturbing the public order of the residents! It is your duty to investigate the case, why come to our home if you are not doing business!"

Guan Yuzhou said lightly: "We have something to look for your son, he should know about his classmate's disappearance last night."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How can children know such things!"

"Why can't children know?"

"Hehe." The man snorted at this, "Yesterday you also went to Lao Yu's house and stayed with his daughter for so long, but Lao Yu's daughter disappeared overnight! Now everyone is talking about who's child and his daughter Anyone who has been in contact with you will be the next to disappear... Get lost, don't come to my house! We are not the parties involved, if you want to find it, go find someone else!"

The door closed with a bang, but Guan Yuzhou didn't stop this time.

He frowned, turned his head to observe the nearby terrain, pulled Xia Zhuo and led Tan Nian away.

"The people who came yesterday got the reminder, that's why they targeted the Yu family."

"Then do they already know why the child disappeared?"

"will not."

Seeing his resolute denial, Xia Zhuo was a little puzzled, "How do you know?"

Guan Yuzhou said: "The person who got the reminder is not very capable, but if he has a little brain, he will not go back to school last night."

Xia Zhuo understood.

The person who gave the reminder knew that something would happen to the Yu family's child, but he didn't know when it would happen, so he spent so much time getting along yesterday.As a result, no sign was found, but it caused some trouble for all participants.

Thinking of being yelled at by the aborigines just now and still not answering, he felt a little unhappy, "Then what should we do now, the door is not allowed, and his son can't even see him."

"Go up the hillside." Guan Yuzhou still remembered that his feet hurt, so he slowed down his pace. "There is no shelter around the house, and the whole situation can be monitored from a high place. But I am not sure when the accident happened, so I can only wait and see."

Behind the hillside is the forest. The weeds have not been cleared, and the sunlight is blocked by the towering leaves. The ground looks dark and depressing, like being covered in a gray cage.

Xia Zhuo instinctively disliked the environment, moved away, sat on the ground and played chess with Tan Nian picking up branches.

Tan Nian didn't know, he taught by hand, but after winning five games in a row, he always felt that he was bullying the children, so he calmly put some water.

After finally winning once, Tan Nian was so happy that his face blushed. Within two seconds of excitement, he sneaked a peek at Xia Zhuo's reaction, as if he was afraid that he would get angry.

Feng Wenyao and his father didn't appear in the yard again throughout the afternoon, and the three of them waited until dark.

Another moonless and starless night.

Tan Nian held a mirror and whispered not far away, Xia Zhuo couldn't disturb him, so he leaned against a tree trunk and fiddled with the flashlight.After a while, he felt his neck hurt from the cushion again, and he rubbed his buttocks to the side of Guan Yuzhou, crying pitifully for the cold.

"Cold?" Guan Yuzhou touched his hand, it was indeed a little cold.

"Yeah, I always feel that the forest behind me is chilly, and the wind is blowing out."

Guan Yuzhou's physique was much better than his, so he didn't feel anything about it, and he just let him put his hands into his arms and hug him indulgently.

Xia Zhuo sighed comfortably, and stared at the two floors downhill with half-closed eyes, "You've been looking at it for so long, so nothing has changed?"

Guan Yuzhou shook his head, "No."

"I suddenly felt that dual personalities are not bad. When I'm bored, I can chat with myself." Xia Zhuo pointed to Tan Nian who was not far away. Read the main character."

"His secondary personality doesn't come out much, and it's basically in the mirror. If it's not a very critical moment, the body is always controlled by the main personality." Guan Yuzhou paused, "If you are bored, I can also accompany you chat."

"What are you talking about?" Xia Zhuo thought for a while, and suddenly came up with an idea.He tentatively asked, "Talk about the person you want to resurrect?"

Guan Yuzhou was taken aback, "...Why are you talking about this?"

"No reason, you tell me about her."

Guan Yuzhou was speechless for a while, Xia Zhuo saw his lips tremble several times, but he didn't say a word.

Xia Zhuo really wanted to know who Guan Yuzhou was pretending to be. It's really boring to be jealous of a dead man, but he felt even more uncomfortable seeing Guan Yuzhou's hesitant appearance.

He just wasn't happy about it.

He wanted to say that you are so kind to me and you like me a little bit, but in the end you still have to work hard for another person.

But he didn't say these things, he just slowly pulled his hand out of the opponent's arms.

Guan Yuzhou lowered his head slightly as if he hadn't noticed his departure, his eyelashes cast shadows in the light of the flashlight, covering his eyes.

Xia Zhuo hugged her knees sadly, and wanted to take back the preface on the grounds of a joke.As a result, he sneezed violently as soon as he opened his mouth, and the effect on the silent hillside was undoubtedly comparable to a thunderstorm.

Guan Yuzhou was disturbed by this movement, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Xia Zhuo wrinkling his face and sniffing there, not knowing when he was more than one meter away from him.

On the ground between the two of them was the scratch left by the two of them playing chess in the afternoon, a short one, but it seemed to separate them.

"Come here." Guan Yuzhou held out his hand to him.

Xia Zhuo suddenly became obstinate, "No, I can hear you talking here."

Guan Yuzhou was a little helpless, he didn't take his hand back, and repeated the words: "It's too dark over there, come here."

"Where is it dark? It's not dark, my little tube is on."

"..."

How could he fail to hear Xia Zhuo's displeasure, but there were some things he couldn't tell the other party.

He spent some time recalling what Dr. Qin had said. He was at fault for that matter, how could he repeat the old pattern and make Xia Zhuo suffer again.

He sighed imperceptibly, stood up on the ground, and reduced the distance of one meter to zero.

Xia Zhuo planted himself like a mushroom, he didn't move when people came, he didn't look sideways, and even made a bet with himself.

It was he who took the initiative to tease Guan Yuzhou, but it was he who couldn't bear it first.

Would he be happy to pay himself back first?Of course he wasn't happy, especially since Guan Yuzhou was still so vague and let him rely on him, leading him all the way into the pit without knowing how to restrain himself.

It is true that the one who flirts first is cheap.

Anyway, very angry!

Still feel a little wronged.

He stared at the shadow under his feet and wrapped his coat tighter.

What I said earlier is true, if Guan Yuzhou doesn't want to take him with him anymore, he will be afraid.In fact, he didn't think at all when he said this, and blurted it out, like so many jokes in the past without any brains.

After thinking about it, I suddenly realized that I was really afraid.

He sniffed again and shook his head slightly.

Guan Yuzhou was looking down at him, facing the light of the flashlight, that face was clearly presented in front of his eyes, even the faint furrow between his brows could be seen at a glance.

Xia Zhuo thought, why are you frowning at this time?It seems that the man is always frowning.

He saw that Guan Yuzhou's lips moved, as if he wanted to speak, but he didn't know why he was in a panic, so he interrupted it quickly: "I don't want to know, you better stop talking."

If Guan Yuzhou really said it, maybe he was the one who made the trouble.

He even had an absurd idea for a moment, and he just kept delaying Guan Yuzhou from fulfilling his wish. It would be good for them to escape like this all the time in their dreams.

Anyway, he didn't know who he was in reality, and he forgot all the important and unimportant ones. Now he only has Guan Yuzhou, and only Guan Yuzhou.

He was like a withered bud pulled out of the darkness. He saw the light for the first time in his life, and fear was so deeply planted.He likes and yearns for that kind of warmth, so he is afraid of being swallowed by the abyss behind him again.

After Guan Yuzhou revived that person, he would definitely not be with him like he is now.At that time, this person will definitely be as happy as a fairy, so he can't control his life.

"Guan Yuzhou, I suddenly feel that I'm so selfish." He murmured angrily, "I'm not like that."

He was so heartless that he relaxed, he didn't have to think about when he would die, as if he had never lived from the beginning.

As a result, I bumped into someone like this, and I was inadvertently endowed with negative emotions, and it got deeper and deeper, and the more I thought about it, the more bitter I became.

In the end, he simply gave up thinking, and knocked the pebbles embedded in the ground in despair, "Forget it, anyway, I don't know what I was like before."

Guan Yuzhou's eyes were full of darkness.

He looked at the young man quietly for a moment, then bent his knees and squatted down in front of him.

"Xia Zhuo."

Xia Zhuo pursed his lips, still insisting on his last stubbornness.

Guan Yuzhou sighed, and said helplessly, "Why do you suddenly have a temper?"

"No, don't talk nonsense."

Don't admit it, let's see who can spend who.Anyway, the night is long and there is nothing to do now, he will never let go.

"Didn't you say it was cold?" Guan Yuzhou hesitated for a moment, clenched his knuckles slightly, and then let go.He once again raised his arms towards Xia Zhuo, but what he said seemed to have another meaning, "Do you want it?"

"...what do you want?"

Guan Yuzhou asked him warmly, "What do you think it is?"

"What do I think is what?"

"Ah."

"Then what if I think you're asking me if I want you?"

Guan Yuzhou said, "Then maybe I'll praise you for being smart again."

Xia Zhuo couldn't hold on for a moment.

Depend on!He really couldn't hold on anymore.

He felt that Guan Yuzhou was really too cunning, even more cunning than him.

He took small steps, squatting until his stiff legs leaned against him.

"I want it." He put his chin on Guan Yuzhou's shoulder, and hugged the man's neck obediently, "I really want it."

Guan Yuzhou took him into his arms, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I know." Xia Zhuo's voice was small and soft, and he had never been so weak before, "Or do you want to pretend to be confused with me?"

"I won't." Guan Yuzhou's voice was hoarse for a while, as if it was not Xia Zhuo who was cold but him, his whole arm was trembling slightly, "Don't worry, Xiao Zhuo. This time I will give you time to think clearly... ... When the dream is over, give me the answer."
