On the eve of graduation, the counselor was busy ...
Chapter 62: Schoolgirl? Your eyes are so pretty
"What's more, sometimes people are scarier than ghosts." Chang Xile thought of the man who had brutally attacked Duobao, and her fists clenched involuntarily - she must find out who that man was.
When Duobao woke up, he was surrounded by two people, two monsters and one ghost. For a moment he thought he was dead.
It meowed weakly a few times, calling the names of Chang Xile and Yang Shu. When its gaze turned to Anping's face, it paused noticeably, and finally closed its eyes and pretended not to see.
Duobao: What a dedicated actor I am! jpg.
Since there were only two people present who understood cat language, Chang Xile glanced at Anping, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident - pretending not to know you in front of me, huh?
Anping lowered his head and said nothing, but Chang Xile no longer believed that he was the well-behaved and gentle Anping. Wessel stared at Anping with an unhappy look on his face.
The staff member nearby didn't understand the awkward atmosphere and simply asked, "We need to pay for some medical expenses. Could someone please…"
Chang Xile had just raised his hand when Anping stopped him. He pulled out a card from somewhere and said, "Let me do it."
Chang Xile slapped his bank card, took out his mobile phone, scanned the code and paid in one go.
How much money can a cat have? Please stop pretending to be rich, Anping. Chang Xile looked at Anping deeply, but Anping himself was still confused and stared at the unused bank card in his hand.
By the time Chang Xile headed to school, it was already very late, and the streets were practically empty. She kept checking her phone to check the time, her pace gradually quickening. The footsteps of those following behind her also quickened.
She couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Why are you following me?" The next second, Chang Xile quickly smiled at the frightened Yang Shu and said, "I'm not talking about you, dear." Yang Shu was now considered a ghost under her control, so it was natural for her to follow her!
"Did you hear that? I'm talking to you." Weatherall quickly sneered at Anping.
An Ping looked up at him and calmly retorted, "I'm talking about you."
"I'm talking about you two." Chang Xile waved his hand with a forced smile. "No boys allowed in the girls' dormitory. Bye."
But Chang Xile soon regretted wasting time arguing with them. She tugged at the large iron gate on the west side of the school, lowered her head in sorrow and said, "It's closed."
Yang Shu floated over smoothly, and An Ping and Wessel could easily transform and slip through the gap in the railings. Only Chang Xile, who needed to get back to the dormitory the most, was stopped outside!
Chang Xile then remembered to check the messages on her phone. The dormitory group had already been in a state of uproar - the reason was that Xiao Ai wanted to ask Chang Xile to bring back some midnight snacks, but they soon discovered that Chang Xile seemed to have no intention of returning to the dormitory.
Xiao Ai: [Will you come back, Xile? When we meet again, please be happy... Please be joyful...]
Ren Mei: [It’s almost curfew, are you coming back tonight?]
But Chang Xile didn't respond, so they just started discussing among themselves.
Xiao Ai: [Is he on a date? My friend told me today that he saw our dorm girl and a very handsome man in a suit meeting at a coffee shop.]
Ren Qing: [Staying out all night is not okay, Xile! !]
Then Fang Xinai and Ren Qing had hundreds of arguments about whether they could go out overnight with the boy they liked, which was finally interrupted by Yang Guisi.
Wang Gui: [Why don’t you guys just talk directly? Aren’t you all in the dormitory?]
Xiao Ai: [I thought you were asleep]
...often bubbling in the group with joy and sorrow
(^v^): [I was locked out of school TAT]
Xiao Ai: [No way! The dorm aunt in our building is super ruthless. If she says she won’t open the door, she really won’t open it.]
Yang Guisi sent another message to Chang Xile privately.
Wang Gui patted her (^v^) and told her that there are no ghosts in the world
Wang Gui: [How about you stay at my house tonight?]
Wang Gui: [No. It doesn't feel very safe. I don't know where that female ghost is floating right now.]
Chang Xile and Yang Shu, who was floating beside her, exchanged glances. Yang Shu suddenly asked, "Why don't you stay at my house?"
As if sensing Chang Xile's concerns, she displayed her terrifying appearance and said, "If those two bad guys dare to come again, I'll scare them away!"
Chang Xile almost closed her eyes out of habit and said, "Okay, okay, but please don't scare me like this again, okay? I have a fragile heart."
"The ghosts you'll face in the future will be much scarier than hers, this new Ghost of Death." An Ping came out again, leaning against the iron gate with his arms folded as he looked at her. He was quite critical of the agreement she had just made with the Ghost of Death, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be afraid anymore?"
"Are 'not afraid of ghosts' and 'getting scared by sudden appearances' contradictory?" Chang Xile thought of his miserable future life, and angrily said to Yang Shu, "Let's go!", and then he left.
Weatherill whistled at Anping with a gloating look and followed Chang Xile.
After walking together for a while, Chang Xile reported to the dormitory group that he was safe and had somewhere to go that night. He then turned to look at Weiser and Anping again and said, "You all should go home. It's late and it's time to rest."
This time she spoke seriously, without any intention of being angry. Wessel glanced at Anping, and seeing that he had stopped, he did not insist on moving forward.
After watching Chang Xile's back getting farther and farther away, Weiser looked at Anping and asked, "Where are you going?"
Anping glanced at him, then turned back into the blue-eyed lion cat on the deserted street, and disappeared through the iron fence.
"Tsk." It was not convenient for Wessel to change back to his original form. He would remain lame until Chang Xile fulfilled his third wish.
However, Wessel looked at the dark night sky and slowly let out a long breath. He actually hoped that she could say the third wish later.
Chang Xile asked Yang Shu, "Where is your house key?"
"Put it in a small box inside the electrical box next to the rental house." Yang Shu was very satisfied with her idea of hiding the spare key.
Chang Xile, however, felt that this method was not very safe: "A thief could find it just by feeling around, right?"
"Don't worry, I have been staying at home since I became a ghost. No one has found my key." Yang Shu patted her chest and said affirmatively.
Chang Xile smiled as she walked with Yang Shu to the floor where the rental house was located. However, when she was halfway up the stairs, she saw a dark shadow leaning against the door through the moonlight.
Yang Guisi was staying in the dormitory, so it couldn't be her. It was so late, so it was unlikely to be a neighbor.
Chang Xile felt as if he was looking into the other person's eyes in the dark.
"That person in the woods today, was that you?" the dark figure asked faintly in the night, and he accurately called out her name, "Chang Xile?"
Chang Xile retreated and ran downstairs without any hesitation. The man in the shadow waved his hand, and two men surrounded him from behind.
Chang Xile walked back slowly until her back rested against the large glass window on the middle floor of the stairs. She looked back and saw that she was already on the fourth floor, a very high floor.
"I don't understand what you are saying." Chang Xile pretended to be stupid and calmly took out the black bell given to her by Wessel from her arms.
"At first, I thought the special thing was that little calico cat, able to actually hold a conversation with humans. But no matter how hard I tried, that damn cat just couldn't demonstrate any abilities that satisfied me." The man slowly walked down the stairs, the moonlight gradually illuminating his entire body until his face was revealed. His voice was extremely gentle, but Chang Xile could only sense a sinister aura in it. "I didn't expect it was you who was special, junior sister?"
"Chen Moxin?" Chang Xile blurted out his name after seeing the man's face clearly, "How did you know I was here?"
"Why don't you call me senior when we meet? It's really sad." Chen Moxin was holding a red wine glass in his hand. He smiled and told her slowly, "I wasn't sure at first, but I kept hearing from my subordinates that there was something strange going on in this house. I think whoever knows the whereabouts of the little cat and the girl's dead cat should also return to this place, right?"
"Has anyone ever told you that you look so beautiful when you're scared?" He raised his glass, raised it in Chang Xile's direction, and said happily, "Prosit!"
Red wine spilled down the rim of the glass. Chang Xile turned her face away, but some of it still soaked her cheeks and skirt. She gritted her teeth, without any emotion, and secretly rang the bell. But before she could even say Wessel's name, two men came forward and twisted one wrist each. The bell slipped out of her hand and fell into a corner, but because it was too dark, it didn't ring, so it went unnoticed.
Yang Shu was helpless. She roared and blocked the way of the two men, but they ignored her and walked past her.
"Is my accent more accurate this time?" Chen Moxin walked down the stairs and came in front of Chang Xile, staring at her eyes burning with anger and laughing.
"What do you want?" Chang Xile asked him, a series of countermeasures flashing through her mind, and she eliminated them one by one. Before she could come up with a solution, the only strategy was to delay.
"Would you please be my interpreter?" Chen Moxin paced in front of her with his hands behind his back, then turned to look at her. "You know, sometimes just listening to cats screaming is quite boring. I have to know what they are saying to make me feel better."
"You bastard!" Chang Xile recalled Duobao's incessant wailing in the woods today, and Xiaojia's screams of abuse on the recorder some time ago. She wondered how many innocent cats had experienced such tragedies. She was so enraged that she raised her foot to kick him, but was pushed back against the wall by the two men. "Are you the mastermind behind that Love Loan? You are completely devoid of conscience. You will not live a good life!"
"But your screams seem quite interesting." Chen Moxin looked at her, his eyes suddenly changing. He smiled and pinched her cheek, saying, "That day at the Moon Viewing Platform, I wanted to tell you that your eyes are as big and round as a cat's. I really want to dig them out and keep them as a treasure..."
The next second, the two men holding Chang Xile's hands suddenly screamed, their wrists twisting outward in an abnormal manner. Chen Moxin looked at them in confusion, and before she knew it, Chang Xile, who had regained his freedom, kicked her in the stomach.
He cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
Chang Xile sighed. Her feet were numb just now, otherwise she should have kicked him in the vitals.
"I will call the police. None of you can escape." Chang Xile picked up the bell in the corner, blew off the dust on it, and staggered downstairs.
"Do you have any evidence?" Chen Moxin was still gasping. When had he ever been humiliated? Yet, he had been slapped in the face several times by Chang Xile. He stared at Chang Xile's back with hatred, and suddenly pulled a knife from his men's waist bag and swung it at Chang Xile.
But the hilt of his knife was shaken away in the next moment, and Chen Moxin cried out in pain and fell to his knees. He raised his head and looked forward fiercely. Behind Chang Xile, a young white-haired man put his arm around her shoulders and looked at him coldly.
