Chapter 018 I'll take you out for dinner
Lin Xi sneezed, squinting her eyes in her sleep, and then rubbed Shen Sang Ning in her arms. But Shen Sang Ning was too cold, and she was sleeping, so after rubbing twice, she pushed him away, wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and continued to sleep.
Shen Sangning wasn't angry when Lin Xi pushed her away. Perhaps the word "angry" didn't even exist in her naive mind. When Lin Xi pushed her away, she clung to him again. The quilt got in the way, so she returned to her strange state in the bathroom, overlapping with the quilt.
Lin Xi fell asleep and did not see this scene, but the audience in her live broadcast room felt like vomiting as they watched it. This kind of thing that is beyond one's own cognition can indeed easily make people feel physiologically nauseous, so everyone simply changed the live broadcast room and went to another room to watch the live broadcast.
The next morning, Lin Xi kicked off the quilt, and Shen Sang Ning returned to her physical form. Lin Xi let Shen Sang Ning return to her body, got up, brushed her teeth, and washed her face. When she arrived at the dinner table, the family of four was already seated, waiting for Lin Xi.
The younger brother stared at Lin Xi fiercely like a puppy guarding its food, afraid that Lin Xi would steal his breakfast. Lin Xi didn't even look at his younger brother, but instead looked at his parents: "Mom, I fixed the bathroom faucet last night. Don't worry, there will be no more red water flowing out of the faucet in the future."
She pronounced the word "red water" very hard. Her mother, who was drinking porridge with a spoon, was stunned for a moment, then said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After dinner, my parents went out to work, and my younger brother and sister also had to go to art class. Before leaving, my mother looked at Lin Xi, and Lin Xi immediately coughed a few times: "No, I'm not well yet, I can't go out."
Mom nodded and said, "Mom and Dad aren't home, so make yourself some instant noodles for lunch. If anyone knocks on the door, don't answer, even if it's a neighbor." This was exactly the same as what she said yesterday, and Lin Xi didn't think much of it until she added the next sentence: "Remember to take out the garbage bags in the kitchen. You have to take them out before ten o'clock."
After saying this, the four of them walked out the door.
Lin Xi looked up at the living room clock. The time was 8:36. Her brows furrowed, because her mother's words made her doubtful. Although Lin Xi was not a smart person, she was not stupid either. Her mother had made breakfast and washed the dishes in the morning, but now she left the house without taking out the trash. Instead, she told her to do it and even specified a specific time.
She definitely didn't have good intentions, but was trying to harm herself. Lin Xi was still aware of this matter.
Obviously, they were very unhappy that she was living in this family safely. Lin Xi also did not forget the fourth rule of the main rule: no one in this family is trustworthy. In other words: Mom would say
Lie, garbage should be thrown away. After all, the kitchen rules point this out, but it is not certain whether it should be thrown away at 10 o'clock.
Lin Xi remembered that her mother had taken them away yesterday when they left. She was a little suspicious. The specific time might not be ten o'clock, but nine. Besides, nine o'clock was before ten o'clock. So all Lin Xi had to do now was tie the garbage bag and go out to throw away the trash.
But the main rules say that it is dangerous outside.
This house is on the fourth floor. If you want to go downstairs, there are two ways: one is to take the stairs, and the other is to take the elevator. But in ghost stories, these two are not good places. Taking the stairs is likely to be a ghost wall, and you will always go down the same floor without changing; and this is 403, the fourth floor, where accidents often happen!
Taking the elevator, that's even more amazing, what ghost story doesn't have an elevator in it? The elevator is overloaded as soon as you get in, and there's a strange sound coming from the emergency call button. These kinds of things are very common.
After the family left, Lin Xi called Chen Sang Ning out. No matter how they took out the trash, it still had to be taken out. Lin Xi entered the kitchen, tied up the trash bag, and when she looked up, she saw the kitchen window. She walked to the window, opened it, and looked at the window, then at the trash bag in her hand.
The audience in her live broadcast room could see clearly:
[That’s right! Throw it down! Throw it right down! ]
[Although throwing objects from high places is unethical, it's too late to worry about that now!]
[I'm back from next door. Practice has proven that throwing it directly down works. Several anchors have done it directly down. It's definitely much safer than going out!]
[Ahhhh, there's another person with an SC spot? Tell Miss Lin Xi quickly!]
Lin Xi couldn't see the comments in the live broadcast room. She thought about it, but in the end she didn't put down the garbage bag in her hand. Instead, she turned her head and looked at Shen Sang Ning: "Wife, are you hungry?"
Shen Sangning tilted her head, her confused eyes reflecting Lin Xi, and she replied, "Hungry."
"Well, I'll take you to dinner."
Lin Xi didn't want to see her wife hungry, so she chose to believe her. From the first day to now, so much time has passed, and no ghost has been able to get anything good from her wife, so Lin Xi believed that her wife was definitely not weak.
Besides, she was Shen Sangning. How could Shen Sangning be weak? In Lin Xi's heart, Shen Sangning was a strong person. Although Shen Sangning was more delicate than herself and sometimes couldn't even open a bottle cap, but putting aside her physical fitness, Shen Sangning was a well-deserved strong person in terms of intelligence and endurance.
Even if Shen Sangning became a ghost, Lin Xi believed that she must be a very powerful ghost.
She had this kind of unconditional trust in Shen Sangning.
Lin Xi reached out and held Shen Sangning's hand. When they reached the door, he did not let go of Shen Sangning's hand. Instead, he put down the garbage bag first and put the key that he had placed on the shoe cabinet when he entered the house the day before into his trouser pocket. Then he picked up the garbage bag again and went out with Shen Sangning.
The security door slowly closed behind him, making a slight sound as it hit the doorframe. The corridor was dark, lit only by the green light of the secret channel. Lin Xi squeezed Shen Sangning's hand. Even if she believed, she was still afraid.
Lin Xi swallowed her saliva, pulled Shen Sang Ning and planned to walk forward. But in a moment, she didn't pull Shen Sang Ning, Lin Xi was a little confused, she turned her head: "Ning Ning?"
"Wife." Shen Sangning responded, but did not move. Instead, she raised her other hand and pointed to 404 next door. She tilted her head in the direction of 404: "I'm hungry."
The meaning is clearly: Can I eat 404?
If it was edible, Lin Xi would agree, but the problem now was that she had to go downstairs to throw away the garbage quickly. If she didn't go downstairs, it would be difficult if the time was too late.
So Lin Xi thought about it, coaxed Shen Sang Ning and said, “Leave it for now, it’s next door, it can’t run away, let’s go downstairs and eat something else first.”
What Lin Xi said made sense, Shen Sang Ning agreed, she nodded, grabbed Lin Xi's hand, and walked forward with her. Between the stairs and the elevator, Lin Xi hesitated for a moment and chose the stairs. Because there were too many ghosts involved in the elevator.
Lin Xi felt that Shen Sang Ning was very strong, but there was no need to set her up to fight a group of people alone. To be on the safe side, it was better to take the stairs first. The four floors were a piece of cake for Lin Xi, and it was no problem to go downstairs within 30 seconds.
But just as she expected, if nothing unexpected happened, it did happen, except that it wasn't a ghost wall. Lin Xi had just walked out of the secret channel when the door slowly closed behind her with an unpleasant "creaking" sound. Before she even walked down the stairs, she heard "bang bang bang bang".
Lin Xi vaguely knew what the sound was; it was the sound of a ball hitting the ground. The sound made her hair stand on end, but she managed to calm herself down and turned around to look behind the door to the secret channel. Sure enough, there was a piece of paper taped there.
It says "Secret Channel Rules".
Lin Xi ignored the sound of the ball, but took out a pen and paper and began to copy the rules.
In fact, there are not many rules in the secret channel, and they are not much different from the rules in real life, such as "close the door when you leave", "keep the channel clean and do not litter", "do not pile up debris in the channel" and so on.
Lin Xi would never do those things in real life, let alone in the world of rule-based weird stories.
After she finished copying, she put the note in her pocket and continued walking downstairs with Shen Sangning. As she walked, she didn't forget the trash bag. She was going downstairs to take out the trash, so she couldn't forget about it at the end of the journey.
Just after walking down two steps, Lin Xi saw a small red ball bouncing up from downstairs. How should I describe that small ball? It was quite pretty, just like the kind that Lin Xi would play with when she was a child. However, Lin Xi pretended not to see this weird situation.
The ball bounced around the corner of the stairs. The stairs here were pretty standard, with two flights per floor, and then you'd go down again in the other direction. The step stopped at the junction of the two floors, hit the wall, and bounced back a little, rolling towards Lin Xi.
Lin Xi hypnotized himself: I can’t see it, I can’t see it.
She pulled Shen Sang Ning downstairs and came to the ball. She pretended not to see it and walked forward. As a result, she saw the door of the secret channel on the third floor opened slightly, revealing a wretched fat man's face. He also said to Lin Xi: "Little sister, can you help me pick up the ball?"
——I’m picking up your father.
Lin Xi really wanted to curse, but Chen Sang Ning was beside her. She was confused now and had forgotten many words. Lin Xi didn't want her to learn such curse words. Seeing that Chen Sang Ning was about to rush up and eat the wretched man, Lin Xi grabbed Chen Sang Ning's hand.
No, why does my wife want to put everything into her mouth?
