Chapter 36: The next moment, he twisted his body and swam out at lightning speed...

Qianqian was slightly stunned when she heard Song Keling's question. She had just become a human for a few days and had no idea that a casual word would reveal her identity.

Seeing that she didn't say a word, Song Keling put down her pen and picked up her phone. "If you don't say anything, I'll send you back to the police station."

Qianqian couldn't believe she would be so cruel to herself. She immediately stood up and said angrily, "You don't need to send me off. I can leave on my own!"

She is very mobile and can leave at any time, getting out of bed directly.

Song Keling said, "Put on your shoes."

Qianqian strode away and turned back to glare at her aggrievedly. She walked to the bed and put on her shoes. She felt even more aggrieved as she put them on. Being a human is so troublesome. Being a snake doesn't even require wearing shoes!

But just thinking about it, all the suffering and fear I experienced after becoming a human came flooding back to my mind.

Qianqian's nose felt sore. She had already put on her shoes. Her courage had only lasted ten seconds. Now she was deflated. She looked at Song Keling and whispered, "I did see the box, and that..."

Song Keling: "What?"

Qianqian walked to the table hesitantly, raised her hand and pointed at the empty breeding box on the table, and then pointed at the snake skin specimen that Song Keling had put aside halfway.

Song Keling looked at it and said nothing.

Qianqian secretly glanced at her out of the corner of her eye.

Song Keling indeed could not rule out the possibility that the little girl thought "Qianqian is actually a snake" after seeing these two things.

Because she initially thought the little girl had intellectual problems.

After actually getting along with them, I can feel that children are just a little ignorant and lack a lot of common sense, but they are not stupid.

Not only is he not stupid, he also learns things very quickly.

In fact, even if there was no reason, Song Keling would not really drive a child away in the middle of the night.

Song Keling's attitude softened a little, and Qianqian noticed it immediately. She was very sensitive to emotional changes.

She wasn't worried at all.

There was always a faint white light on Song Keling that made her feel at ease and comfortable.

People with real malicious intent are not like this.

It will be like what happened to my senior sister that night, all the light on her body will turn black in an instant.

But after she finished speaking, Song Keling didn't seem to buy it. Qianqian was unsure if it would work, so she could only say reluctantly, "Then I'm leaving now..."

Song Keling watched her turn and leave, her feet almost glued to the floor. Feeling a little helpless, she said, "Let's go tomorrow."

Qianqian immediately turned around and happily threw herself into her arms: "Great!!"

Song Keling quickly pushed her away and let her sleep.

Time passes and the lights dim.

Song Keling had finished reading the book and framed and sealed the snake skin specimen that she had not finished making.

Gently stroke with fingertips.

Song Keling knew very well in her heart that after such a long time, it was very likely that she would never find Qianqian again.

Fortunately, I still have a souvenir.

Song Keling put away the specimens, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

I don’t know if it’s because the child’s body temperature is too low, or because my emotions are too turbulent thinking about Qianqian at night, but Song Keling couldn’t fall asleep even with her eyes closed.

She slowly opened her eyes, turned to look at the little girl who was sleeping soundly on her shoulder, and then looked away.

I don’t know if I’m possessed by a demon.

She always inexplicably felt a familiar feeling of not wanting to blame the little girl.

It's as if...

It was as if I was facing Qianqian, who was of a different species.

It's really crazy.

Song Keling frowned and felt that if this continued, she would have to see a psychiatrist.

But you can't blame her, it was just such a coincidence.

I found a child near my house who looked naive and ignorant, like she had no idea about human society. She barely spoke or walked, but she insisted they knew each other. Her temperature was also abnormally low...

She has a strong learning ability. In just one day, the little girl can speak Mandarin fluently and organize the story line logically.

She also said her name was Qianqian...

Knowing that what she lost was a small snake...

Before going to sleep, Song Keling's mind was full of these strange details, so much so that after she fell asleep in a daze, she quickly started dreaming.

The face that had always been a little blurry in the dream became clear.

——Beautiful round eyes with clear black and white, thick long eyelashes, fair cheeks with a little baby fat, and wearing a white dress.

She was calling her.

Song Keling moved closer and closer, only to find that the little man in front of her was only three inches tall and was locked in a breeding box by herself.

The child angrily knocked on the wall of the box and asked her to be let out.

Song Keling watched, unmoved, and said, "No, if I let you go, you'll run around and I won't be able to find you."

If you look closely, you can see that the three-inch-tall child being held captive is not entirely human. Under the skirt, there are no human legs, but a slender, swimming snake tail.

Song Keling slowly opened her eyes and woke up. She didn't move, but looked at the ceiling and light in the bedroom.

Slowly, I remembered a dream I had long ago.

In the dream, a child pointed at Nezha’s raccoon and said he wanted it.

The child was pretty, delicate and exquisite, with big eyes and a small mouth. Apart from a pair of red vertical pupils, he was clearly a smaller version of the child she picked up.

But this is too much?

Song Keling frowned tightly. How could this be true?

She is a person who has received more than ten years of higher education.

Make her believe that the little snakes rescued casually in this world really have spirituality and may even turn into humans?

Song Keling let out a long breath and sat up. When she sat down, she found that there was no one by the bed.

I wasn't particularly surprised, as the same thing happened the morning before.

However, she pricked up her ears and listened for a moment, but there was no sound outside.

Song Keling got out of bed and wanted to call "Qianqian", but because she felt uncomfortable, she held back and just looked outside.

However, there were no children in the living room, kitchen, or study.

To be on the safe side, Song Keling bent down and looked under the coffee table, but there was nothing there.

Song Keling opened the wardrobe, the curtains, and every corner where someone could hide, but found nothing.

Then, she found that her behavior at this moment was so familiar, just like when she looked for Qianqian before.

She stopped abruptly.

Qianqian is a snake.

This time, the missing person was a living person.

Of course Song Keling would not believe a dream that had no basis whatsoever.

Dreams are simply the human brain fragmenting and illogically reorganizing things that people encounter in reality.

There is no mysterious meaning of "sign" or "omen".

Occasionally it really happens in reality, but that is just a probabilistic event based on rationality and is very random.

The story of "snake turning into human" is fundamentally unreasonable.

Instead of believing that the child was transformed from a snake, it is better to believe that the child discovered something from clues and deliberately create mystery to make her have such an understanding.

Song Keling called out, "Bai Qianqian."

In the empty flat, there was only her voice, no other response.

Song Keling didn't continue looking, but went back to the bedroom, picked up her mobile phone and opened the monitoring software.

Select a time point of the surveillance video.

The child was sleeping soundly beside her.

Song Keling pulls back and fast forward.

Suddenly, the child who was originally sleeping soundly tossed and turned and seemed to become restless.

Just as Song Keling was about to jump to the next time node, the entire surveillance screen suddenly became blurry and unclear.

The picture looks like the signal is interfered by some magnetic field and becomes a blur.

Song Keling frowned and quickly scrolled back, one segment after another. When the picture came back, she noticed that it was three hours later.

The video screen returned to normal, and she was the only one sleeping on the bed.

The quilt next to it still retained the shape of a sleeping child.

When Song Keling saw this, her heart skipped a beat.

Slowly, slowly, she turned her head to look at the bed.

The bedding had collapsed from being slept in.

But you can still see something.

In the quiet bedroom, the only sound that could be heard was Song Keling's own heartbeat, which was heavy and powerful, yet chaotic and disordered.

Song Keling walked lightly to the other side of the bed and suddenly pulled back the quilt!

At that moment, many images flashed through Song Keling's mind. She even imagined a scene where she didn't see anyone, but only saw a small white snake coiled around.

Hold your breath and prepare yourself mentally.

But the fact is - when you lift the quilt, there is nothing underneath.

The little snake is white and about 20 centimeters long. If it were alive, it would be very conspicuous among the light blue bedding sheets.

There just isn't.

Song Keling held her forehead and drove away the absurd years that were out of touch with reality in her mind.

Suddenly I remembered what I said last night and paused.

- Could it be that the kid left early this morning because of what he said last night?!

When Song Keling went downstairs, she asked the property manager and retrieved the building surveillance footage.

Surveillance footage showed no children were seen entering or leaving the building in the past few hours.

There is nothing abnormal in the signal.

Song Keling had no choice but to contact the police to inform them of the situation and then went to school.

Song Keling was always a little uneasy because someone had "disappeared" from her home out of nowhere.

She kept thinking about where else in the house the child could hide and whether those places would pose a danger to the child.

I often get distracted during class.

And where is Qianqian, whom Song Keling had been looking for for a long time?

It was hidden in the pocket underneath the loose overalls Song Keling was wearing.

Of course it heard its junior schoolmate calling it, but it wouldn't dare to come out even if it had a hundred guts.

My junior schoolmate Song Keling is so smart. As soon as it shows its head, the person disappears and the snake comes out. When the snake disappears, the person comes out.

Then you will definitely realize that it is Qianqian, Qianqian is it!

In order not to scare people.

Qianqian decided to follow secretly first, then find a suitable place to hide, and then pretend to be found by Song Keling.

In this way, my junior sister would think that it came here by accident and has been moving around in the nearby area, so she couldn't find it in the community.

Qianqian was smart and thought her plan was perfect. After making sure that Song Keling had settled down and was no longer moving, she quickly poked her little head out to look around, then slowly crawled out of her overalls pocket.

It fell to the ground silently.

Everywhere you look, you see human feet and shoes.

Qianqian twisted her slender body to easily avoid "obstacles" and find a way forward.

But there is no grass here, so it is not convenient to hide.

Qianqian walked along the wall of the classroom.

Just as they were about to leave, someone suddenly noticed the white reflection in the sunlight, took a closer look, and exclaimed, "What the hell is that, a snake?!"

As soon as the words fell, they caused a huge uproar.

The lecture hall suddenly became lively, and many students looked in the direction the speaker was staring.

The old professor on the podium was wearing a little bee. I don’t know if he didn’t hear it, or if he heard it, he just thought that a student in the class didn’t control the volume and mentioned something else. In any case, he didn’t take it seriously.

Qianqian, who was carefully executing her plan, heard it.

It raised its head and body and looked back.

Of course, you can't see anything at that height, just various feet and high stairs.

The classroom was quiet for a moment, and then various sounds were heard.

Qianqian paused for two seconds, and the next moment, she twisted her body and swam out at lightning speed!
