My green plums are very sour

I actually didn't listen to the last class at all, anxiously waiting for the bell to ring.During class, I kept thinking about where to find A Rui.

When school was over at noon, she said she would not go home, so basically a place could be ruled out.Where else?

I'm completely out of ideas.

During those days, A Rui had very little contact with us, and we didn't know her whereabouts, so we had no way of judging her whereabouts.

Thinking of this, I feel a little restless and restless in my seat.If he went looking for her so aimlessly, when would there be any results?

Ning Ran probably sensed what I was worried about, so he touched my elbow while the teacher was writing on the blackboard, and shook his head imperceptibly with a sideways face.

I frowned, didn't make a sound, just mouthed to Ning Ran: "Where shall we find her later?"

After asking, I felt that it must be a waste of time to ask, no matter how smart Ning Ran is, it is impossible to know everything.

Sure enough, she lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, pursed her lips and did not answer, with a rare look of bewilderment and worry on her face.

We were all extremely unsteady in this class, almost in a state where one ear went in and the other ear came out, even a good student like Ning Ran, who has always been focused on nothing else, became absent-minded.

On the one hand, I was worried about A Rui, and on the other hand, I was a little annoyed by her.If there is something that is delayed, even if you give us a message, at least don't disappear without a sound.Or let us know before we go out, so we know where to find her.

Now throwing such a difficult problem to everyone, if I find her, I will beat her up to vent my anger.

Qiu Zicheng obviously didn't pay attention to the class, as soon as the bell rang, he swept the textbooks on the table into his bag and strode over, and raised his chin at us.

"Let's go."

Ning Ran and I also packed up our things together, and left before most of the students left.

When passing by Yang Le's seat, he stopped him.

I still remember that he betrayed me before because he said nothing, and now he stopped us from leaving, which made my face turn cold.

"Yang Le, what are you doing to stop us? We still have something to do, so you get out of the way first." Qiu Zicheng negotiated with him in a low voice.

"Are you going to find Zhou Sirui?" Yang Le stood up from his seat, looked around, and spoke in a low voice like Qiu Zicheng, "Actually, she's not sick at all, is she?"

"It seems that this has nothing to do with you?" Qiu Zicheng stared at Yang Le closely when he heard the question, and did not answer his question.

Yang Le didn't seem to care too much, tilted his head, and said: "I just want to help. Seeing you like this, you may not know where she is."

"I can give you a clue. But I don't guarantee that I can find her."

The three of us looked at each other, and we were still a little hesitant, but at this time, it is better to have clues than nothing, otherwise we will really search around like headless chickens, and we may not be able to find anyone after dark.

"Tell me." Qiu Zicheng tapped his index finger on the table twice, then bowed his lower body slightly in the direction of Yang Le.

"I saw her last week at the roller skating rink in the sports center. But she wasn't alone. She was with several people from other schools, both men and women. Those people looked... a little... well, not serious .” Yang Le rubbed the tip of his nose and sorted out his words.

He doesn't look like he's telling a lie.So after listening to it, we couldn't help frowning and fell silent.It seems that those people are likely to be the "friends" that A Rui mentioned.

"Okay, thank you." Ning Ran was the first to come back to his senses, nodded his thanks to Yang Le, and signaled me and Qiu Zicheng to leave, "Let's go to the roller skating rink first, and talk about it if there is no one else."

No one communicated with anyone along the way, and they rode their bikes straight to the roller skating rink.

I know that place, near the residential area where we used to live, in the sports center, you have to go down a staircase, the inside is dark, the temperature is much lower than outside, many children will go inside to enjoy the shade in summer.

But I don't have a good impression of it. It feels like a place where young people who don't learn well gather. Every time I pass by, I see them crookedly leaning against the wall outside the skating rink, or in a row. Sitting on the stairs staring at passers-by with a strange smile.

Thinking of A Rui going to this kind of place to play, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, and I didn't know if she made friends with someone there.

Ning Ran and Qiu Zicheng also looked serious.We found an open space where we could park at the entrance of the roller skating rink, set up the car and locked it.

When I bent down to lock the car, I picked up half a piece of red brick on the ground, weighed it twice, and thought it was a good fit, so I hid it secretly behind me, so that the two of them didn't find it.

I'm definitely not looking for trouble, but I still feel that I should take some self-defense.After all, the place we are going to is full of smog, and it is not certain what we will encounter. Ning Ran and I are both fragile, so it is always good to be prepared.

Standing at the top of the stairs, one could feel a gust of wind blowing towards the face, carrying a certain smell of metal corrosion, which made people want to frown uncontrollably.The stairs are about two meters wide, and the light on the corridor is not good. Standing on the top step and looking down, it is dark.Such an environment may give people a very cold feeling, but the noise coming from the ground is quite noisy.

Qiu Zicheng moved the fastest and walked straight down.Ning Ran and I fell behind, the dim light forced us to move down step by step slowly, the air gets colder as we go down, we have to try the weight under our feet so as not to miss our feet and fall on the stairs .

"Slow down, step on the soles of your feet firmly before walking." In this environment, I couldn't see Ning Ran's appearance clearly, I only knew that she stretched out her hand to hold me.Fortunately, it was not the hand holding the brick.

"I know, you have to look at the way yourself." I nodded and remembered that she might not be able to see, so I squeezed her palm lightly.

There should be quite a few people in the roller skating rink. I heard screams and shouts from time to time. They sounded like teenagers, with high-pitched and energetic voices.

There was a tall and thin figure standing at the door, I squinted my eyes to distinguish it, it should be Qiu Zicheng waiting for us there.

He looked back and saw that we had finished descending the stairs, so he started to walk inside.

I have passed by the outside of the roller skating rink many times, but this is the first time I have entered the rink.

The entrance is a front desk, which seems to be a place to store items. There is a row of cabinets against the wall, all of which are shoe sizes.Along the side is a bench placed against the wall, and many people sit on it, smoking and bragging.The innermost part is the roller skating field, which looks almost as big as four basketball courts.

The light in the arena is provided by the glass windows on the top of the wall. The windows are opened very high, and it is estimated that the outside is the ground.I don't know where the cool wind came from, blowing over in bursts, it felt like entering a large factory building.

The whole environment is as bad as I thought, it looks like a mess.The three of us are wearing school uniforms and carrying schoolbags, and we look like aliens here.

"Let's go inside and look for it?" Qiu Zicheng had already scanned the people around us, but he didn't find A Rui, so he suggested that we go inside and look at the edge of the venue. She might be in the venue. Play.

Although I don't like the environment here very much, I am still very curious. Looking around, there are novelties everywhere.Ning Ran followed beside me, frowning and staring at the road under his feet with displeasure.Even I can't stand this place, let alone her.

Qiu Zicheng walked along the bench by the wall for about ten meters, and stopped soon, his face cleared up a little, and then darkened immediately.Ning Ran and I also stopped beside him, following his gaze, A Rui was talking and laughing with some men and women.If I guessed right, Yang Le should be talking about them.

Seeing that A Rui was fine, I couldn't help but relax a little bit. After the worries dissipated, all that was left was anger.

"A Rui?" I saw that both of them were just calm and silent, so I had to greet them myself.Even if I'm not happy, but everyone can't just stand like this?The problem still needs to be solved.

"Huh?" Hearing my voice, A Rui raised her head subconsciously, her eyes were full of surprise, but she quickly realized that she stood up and slid two steps towards us, "How did you find this place?" ?”

She was still laughing. "You still have the nerve to ask! Why don't you go to class this afternoon?" I glared at her and asked angrily.Originally, I wanted to ask her if she knew that this would make us worry, but I got stuck and forgot to say it.

A Rui looked at the three of us back and forth, but didn't take my question to heart, and still smiled, "Oh, I thought something was wrong. I just didn't think it was interesting and didn't want to go to school."

As soon as her words came out, I could clearly feel the temperature around me drop, I glanced to the two sides from the corner of my eye, Qiu Zicheng and Ning Ran both pulled the corners of their mouths down.

"you……"

"Hey, these are all your classmates?" I was about to say something like Ning Ran when a few people who were chatting with A Rui just now gathered around. Should be yellow hair.The man was not tall, and he was wearing a printed dark shirt, all the buttons were buttoned up misplaced, and he was wearing a pair of tights underneath. He looked sloppy, not like a nice person.

"Little sister, is this the first time you come out to play? Still wearing school uniform and carrying a schoolbag?" Huang Mao glanced at me and Ning Ran, and grinned.Several people who were with him also laughed after hearing this, and stared at us one after another.

"Do you want to come with us?"

At this time, many similar images popped up in my mind, all of which were written in the novels I secretly read without Ning Ran in the past - the protagonist was surrounded by a group of gangsters and made things difficult for him, and in critical moments, someone drew his sword to help when he saw injustice.Then I saw Qiu Zicheng take a step forward, blocking Ning Ran and me.Although he is very thin, he can't completely cover us, but the 1.8-meter-long man still feels oppressive when he stands upright. His angular face does not show any expression, so it is more than enough to look down on the yellow hair, which is less than 1.7 meters.

Seeing the people on the opposite side, I was stunned for a moment, and Qiu Zicheng stood in front of me, and my courage swelled up, and I pulled Ning Ran to the back to stand up by myself, and by the way, I lifted the half brick that I had been carrying in my hand.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze all of a sudden.
