Gu Mingjing's face revealed a bit of entanglement. "Okay, if you don't want to talk anymore, remember to stop at any time."

"good."

"You just said that after you came out...you will never forget the way people outside looked at you." Gu Mingjing reminded.

As soon as he got the hint, Kong Qi immediately remembered it, and his eyes lit up, "Yes, it's here."

"When I came out, there were several people outside, standing at the door like gate gods. I almost bumped into them when I came out. Before I could move, they all took a few steps back, as if I were some kind of dirty thing. It's funny. Isn't it just coming out of the toilet? Who hasn't been to the toilet? Don't they have to go to the toilet too?"

But I'm not like you, who stays for half an hour. Gu Mingjing complained in his heart.

"That's not all. When I left the bathroom, they practically kept looking at me. Their eyes were so strange and intense, with suspicion, doubt, and even avoidance. I had no idea what they were thinking."

What are you thinking? Suspecting you have a hidden illness, wondering if you have a mental disorder. As for avoiding you? It's even simpler. Who knows if you have some strange disease? Why not stay away from you? Gu Mingjing was full of complaints.

Kong Qi continued to complain, "Later, when I was sitting in my seat, people would look at me from time to time, and some would point at me with strange looks. It made me feel very uncomfortable, like I was sitting on pins and needles."

This is not their fault. Whether they have a hidden illness or something else, it is their own business. It is really inappropriate to point fingers at them behind their backs.

"That's a bit too much." Gu Mingjing said: "Then what did you do?" Did you just endure it like that?

Kong Qi felt that he had been agreed and quickly said, "Yes, they are really too much." Isn't it just staying in the toilet for half an hour?

"Originally, I thought that since we were away from home, there was no need to make a big fuss over a small matter. Besides, they just gave me an offensive look and didn't do anything excessive, so it wouldn't be a good idea to go to their house for this." It was fake. The fact was that he was alone and the other party had several people, so he didn't dare to.

"So I thought about changing my seat so that they wouldn't see me." If you can't afford to offend me, can't you just avoid me?

"Then what? Did you find someone to exchange seats with you?" Gu Mingjing asked.

"No." Kong Qi shook his head slowly.

"No one is willing to change?" Gu Mingjing asked in surprise.

"No, I found a good person to switch seats with me, and when I changed seats, I found that my luggage had been stolen." Kong Qi's face was full of grief and indignation. His luggage contained his clothes, food, and money, and they were all gone.

If he hadn't listened to his mother and separated the money and notes and hid most of them on his body, he would probably have starved to death and would not have been able to go back.

"Ah, this... My condolences." Gu Mingjing was truly amazed.

Good boy, this is really good boy, is there anything more unlucky than this? First, he was thought to be mentally ill, then he was pointed at and criticized, and finally his luggage was stolen. I am afraid this is the reincarnation of the god of bad luck.

No, Gu Mingjing suddenly realized that this was clearly all his fault and he was wrongly accusing the unlucky god.

If he hadn't gone off to study... for half an hour, he wouldn't have been criticized as mentally ill. If he hadn't put his luggage down and ran away as soon as he got on the bus, how could he have been stolen so easily? Wouldn't that have created an opportunity for thieves? I'm afraid the thieves would be very happy.

As if he could hear the silence in Gu Mingjing's words, Kong Qi couldn't hold it in any longer. "Brother Gu, you think I'm stupid too, right?"

"Uh, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"The truth."

"A little." Gu Mingjing still tried his best to give him face. He felt it was really stupid.

Kong Qisheng slumped down on the table, feeling hopeless. "I feel the same way. My mom clearly warned me before I got on the train, but once I got on, I got so excited that I forgot everything. If I hadn't had the letter of introduction with me, I would have been finished."

"After losing everything, I lived on the little money I had hidden on me. I spent every penny very carefully, eating only one meal a day, and barely managed to get home. When I got home, I was so shabby. My clothes were wrinkled from not having changed for days. My mother almost didn't recognize me when she saw me."

"What about those people? You didn't care about them?" Gu Mingjing asked curiously.

When talking about this, Kong Qi instantly became excited. "How is it possible? How can it be so simple?"

"When the things were lost, I was furious and anxious. Now those people were still talking about it, just adding fuel to the fire. How could I bear it?"

"Don't they like to gossip and point fingers behind people's backs? I'll give them a taste of their own medicine. I'll pull the comrades next to me and start a low conversation, staring at them with strange eyes while chatting. Don't you like to watch? Then let's watch together and see who can outsmart the other. Whoever moves away first loses."

"Brother Gu, you don't know, at that time my fighting power was off the charts. Compared to me, those people were all trash." Kong Qi said with a beaming face.

Gu Mingjing's mouth twitched, "Then you are really amazing."

"That's right." Kong Qi said proudly, "Besides that, I also deliberately walked back and forth in front of them. Didn't they think there was something dirty about me and wanted to stay away from me? But I insisted on getting close to them. There were so many people in the car that they had nowhere to run. I still remember how frustrated they felt."

He had a big appetite that day, so he ate two meals despite their expressions. Although this also caused him to overspend, he had to save more and more afterwards.

…

After a long silence, Gu Mingjing considered carefully before speaking, "Your experience is truly...wonderful."

"Yeah, it was only on the way back that things went smoothly, otherwise I would have developed a negative impression of trains." Kong Qi said.

Gu Mingjing: “…” You have no money left, you are a pauper, what else can happen?

"So the reason you don't want us to have new people here is because of this? Are you worried about thieves or..." Is someone thinking you are mentally ill again?

Kong Qi shook his head, "It's not just because of this."

"I'd like to hear more about it." Is this another rumor? Gu Mingjing became interested again.

Kong Qi began to complain, "I don't know if it was because I didn't have a smooth train ride the first time, but every time I took a train, there would be problems."

"As I said before, when I first started going out, I sat in hard seats where there were a lot of people, and then I always ran into all kinds of problems."

"Can you elaborate on this? Take your time, don't be impatient." Gu Mingjing poured another glass of water for Kong Qi.

But this time he refused and refused to drink it no matter what. It was obvious that he still remembered the lesson from the previous incident.

Gu Mingjing had no choice but to give up with regret.
