Chapter 28: If I don't see it, I'll never find my junior schoolmate again. ...
Song Keling lived on a high floor, and Qianqian had not yet recovered from the feeling of falling, and soon fell into another state of dizziness, lying listlessly in the bag, unable to move.
When all the discomfort faded away, Qianqian found that she could not hear any sound.
There was just a slight bumpy feeling.
So, where is it now?
Qianqian struggled to poke her little head out from among all the strange bottles and jars. It was pitch black all around, with only a little light above her head. She tilted her neck, and just then, a hand reached down.
Qianqian spit out her scent and discerned a fragrance, which came from the senior student who was cooking tonight.
Qianqian didn't bite her and let her catch her.
Su Yili separated from Song Keling downstairs in the community. Compared with the previous ones, tonight could be said to be quite enjoyable.
Although there was still a snake, it did not affect her mood.
The street lights in the community are very bright.
Su Yili replied to messages to her friends all the way, and only got her car keys when she was about to leave the community.
I went to the mall to buy food today and drove.
Su Yili reached into her bag and touched a hard object with a cold tentacle. She didn't know what it was, so she took it out to have a look. When she saw the twisted and coiled snake in her hand, she screamed and threw it away!
There was no carpet, and Qianqian fell heavily on the concrete floor.
It curled up in pain, and looked back, only to see that the light gray light on the senior sister's body suddenly turned dark.
Qianqian was frightened, shocked and in pain, and turned around and swam away quickly.
Su Yili shook off the snake and realized that it was the one Song Keling raised at home. She immediately shouted "Oh my God" and chased after it.
But the little snake quickly disappeared into the green grass.
Only the leaves of the bushes were shaking.
Seeing this, Su Yili chased for only two steps before stopping abruptly. She still had goose bumps all over her body. Looking at the green belt that was gradually becoming motionless, she rubbed her arms, her face full of confusion and hesitation.
This, this can't be blamed on her, right?
It was this little snake running around, and she didn't even know when it got into her bag.
Fortunately, she was not bitten when it was caught just now, otherwise she would be dead now.
Just pretend you don't know...
Su Yili thought so and looked around to see if there was any surveillance.
No monitoring.
She then quickly walked a few steps outside the community.
She opened her bag, took out her car keys, and when she unlocked the car not far away, she looked at the lit headlights and felt hesitant again.
She looked back at the neighborhood.
Is she okay? Not only is she okay, this could even be considered a good thing. Otherwise, Song Keling would be bitten sooner or later if she kept interacting with a venomous snake without any boundaries. Besides, she was supposed to release it anyway...
Su Yili hesitated in front of the car for a long time. After convincing herself, she took a deep breath, opened the door and got in.
Just then, a voice was heard from not far away - "Senior! Senior!!"
Su Yili didn't know what to feel. She quickly inserted the car key and started the car, then lowered the window and looked at Song Keling who was riding a bicycle towards her in the distance.
Song Keling parked her car inside and ran to Su Yili's car. She stood outside the car window, leaning over, panting slightly, and said anxiously, "Senior, where is your bag? Qianqian is missing. She might have fallen into your bag."
Su Yili looked a little panicked, and hurriedly picked up the bag on the passenger seat and handed it to her.
Song Keling opened the bag.
This brand-name bag has a small capacity, and a few small items of girls can be clearly seen inside.
Su Yili sat in the car and asked carefully: "Why, no?"
Song Keling frowned slightly and returned the bag to her. "Maybe it didn't fall in. I just watched the surveillance and only saw it fall off the table, but there's a blind spot, so I'm not sure if it fell into the bag. But if it's not in the bag, then it's still in the room. I'll go back and look for it."
"Just need to make sure you're here first, because it's dangerous."
After saying that, Song Keling said, "I'm going back first. Senior sister, please drive carefully."
Su Yili took the bag and said, "Oh, is that so?" Seeing Song Keling was about to leave in a hurry after she finished speaking, she couldn't help but call her to stop.
Song Keling turned around and looked at her.
Su Yili's eyes dodged slightly, and she continued, "Is it possible that it fell in and then climbed out without me knowing? Why don't we look for it along the road out of the community?"
As she said this, she pulled out the key and prepared to get out of the car.
Song Keling said, "No need. I'll go home and look for it first. If I can't find it, we'll talk later."
The residential complex covers a large area, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk along the road. If it is really lost outside, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack, so we can only hope that it is a false alarm.
Su Yili moved her lips, but she didn't say anything. She tightened her grip on the steering wheel slightly, not very naturally. "Well, whether you find the little snake or not, send me a message when you find it."
"good."
Su Yili looked at Song Keling's back as she rode away quickly, let out a long breath, and leaned back on the backrest of the driver's seat as if she had detached herself.
It's okay, it's okay.
It was originally a little snake that was rescued by accident, and now it’s gone.
Despite thinking this, Su Yili couldn't help but got off the car and returned to the community.
She wanted to look for it near the green belt where she had lost the snake before, but when she entered the community, she realized that she was too panicked just now. Now at a glance, the road and the green belt were exactly the same, and she had no idea where she had lost it.
She turned on the flashlight on her phone and squatted down to look, but there was no sign of anything.
Su Yili finally left.
The moon rises above the willows.
Qianqian dragged her aching body and fled in panic, passing through tall bushes, rough stones and grass...
When we stopped, there were only countless crisscrossing wooden stakes and branches all around.
It raised its head and raised its neck and body, but it was too small and all it could see was the bushes and nothing else.
It's over.
Qianqian tried to get there, but there was no way out.
Small branches and thorns blocked the way, making it quite difficult to move through.
There was really no other way, Qianqian could only climb up a bush, but unexpectedly, her head popped up by accident.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the night is deep.
Because Qianqian was too small, her climbing movements made no sound. She stuck out her round little head, which looked smaller than the leaves of the bushes next to her.
The white body looks like the reflection of a street lamp on the leaves on a clear night.
The scarlet vertical pupils are even more difficult to identify among the continuous small bushes.
Qianqian found that she didn't recognize this place at all.
It spit out its tongue and turned its little head, looking left, right, and didn't recognize any of them.
Where is this?
Someone was coming over there. Qianqian lowered her head slightly and hid, hiding in the grass with only a pair of small horn scales above her eyes exposed.
No one would look at the extremely ordinary green belt when passing by.
People and cars coming and going.
Qianqian felt it was very dangerous and needed to find a shelter to protect herself from being seen and captured by other bad guys.
He climbed down the bushes and worked hard along the stones and grass.
But it couldn't find any scent of the junior sister in the air, and it couldn't find the direction.
More importantly, it could hardly crawl anymore.
The panic escape just now had already used up most of its energy.
Qianqian's slender body climbed to the top of the bushes again. She looked around helplessly, but there was nothing around her. She could no longer find her junior schoolmate.
In the bedroom, Song Keling almost turned the room upside down.
She had turned over the bedding and the carpet, and she even stood on a stool to check if there was anything in the air conditioner and air circulator.
The water in the vase was poured out and the flowers were thrown aside.
The sofa cushions are all turned over.
The curtains were wide open, and I searched inside and out. I turned over all the clothes in the suitcase and opened the laptop bag.
Not anywhere.
Song Keling could only force herself to calm down and watch the surveillance video repeatedly. Because it was a blind spot, she couldn't see where Qianqian was after she fell off the table.
But if there is no one in the house, then go outside.
Song Keling's eyes went dark when she thought of this worst possibility, but she still took the flashlight and went out.
Look for it in the corridor first, then in the elevator, and then in the elevator lobby on the first floor.
Walking out of the first floor, the street lights outside are bright.
Song Keling looked around and saw lights lit up high and low in the night. Those were the lights of residents living in dozens of suites in the community.
Anyone who has ever raised a snake knows that once a snake runs away, it is basically impossible to find it again.
How many sewer pipes are connected to the ground?
Even if you are lucky enough to get into someone's house, others will see the snake and those who are afraid will kill it directly, while those who are not afraid will secretly raise it.
Song Keling held a flashlight and tried to calm herself down while calling Qianqian.
But how can you stay calm when you are extremely anxious?
She searched back and forth, and searched the way out of the community three or four times. She dug up the green belts on the side of the road, looked at the trash cans at the intersection, and even shone the light into the sewer hole.
In the end, Song Keling sat on the curb with sweat all over her body chilled by the night wind.
It was late and no one was there.
Perhaps someone thought Song Keling's coming and going was suspicious and told the community security guard, who came over to ask Song Keling about her situation.
Song Keling said she lost something and was looking for it.
The security guard was puzzled and said, "Why are so many people losing things? At eight or nine o'clock, there was also a beautiful girl looking for something here."
Eight or nine o'clock?
Song Keling looked at the security guard: "Did she say what she was looking for?"
"No, she just looked along a section of the road," the security guard said. "She just used her cell phone flashlight, noticed I was looking at her, and quickly got out and drove away."
Song Keling thought it should be senior Su Yili.
But why does the senior sister want to look for it?
When she clearly said that Qianqian might still be in the bedroom, the senior student got out of the car alone and went to the roadside to look for her.
Song Keling hadn't gotten enough rest after attending academic conferences over the past two days, and she was also very tired from the round trip today. After this incident in the evening, she was completely exhausted both physically and mentally.
I remember the last time I lost a snake, it was when my senior sister came to my house.
Even though it was a false alarm at that time.
But the incident happened again and again, and Song Keling couldn't help but think about it more.
When Song Keling entered the room, she glanced at the time on her mobile phone and saw that it was already past midnight.
She rubbed her eyes tiredly and walked into the bedroom.
There was a cartoon playing on the tablet on the table.
She stopped and in a trance saw Qianqian's small body curled up in front of the tablet, watching TV attentively. She was happy, but just as she took a step forward, there was nothing in front of her.
The huge sense of disappointment made Song Keling's heart sink to the bottom.
She sat on the edge of the bed, where the bedding and sheets had been thrown off, and looked at the empty scum box on the table, the empty breeding box, and the thin little snake skin that she had not bought to fit in the frame for the specimen.
Song Keling buried her face in her palms. It took her a while to adjust her mood and go to the bathroom to take a shower.
Not long after she entered the bathroom, the phone on the table vibrated. It was a message from Su Yili.
Ask her if she found the little snake.
