Chapter 43 The first reaction is of course to punch [I dream...
I never dreamed she would ask me what love is.
Is this really possible? A twenty-year-old knows nothing about this?
Tu Zhizhuo looked at his phone and laughed.
Someone was anxious, but she didn't say anything.
She remained calm and composed: "But considering what she said before, growing up in the countryside, having lost both parents, and not being very good at using a phone, isn't it normal for her to be completely unaware of these things?"
[It's impossible that you haven't come into contact with these things when you're with people your age, right? ]
Su Huaiwang on the other side of the screen was still skeptical, but Tu Zhizhuo was still trying to make excuses for the person she was not familiar with.
[It’s hard to say. Have you asked her about her educational background?]
【without】
"You didn't even ask about my education, are you really a lesbian?" Tu Zhizhuo teased, and was immediately slammed by Su Huaiwang.
[It's rude to ask such a private question right away! And I'm not the kind of person who values academic qualifications!] This sentence was taken back by the other party within two seconds of being sent.
[No, she and I are not going to be in a relationship, why do you need to know this?]
Still talking stubbornly, still talking stubbornly.
Tu Zhizhuo, holding a toothpick in his mouth, sat in the driver's seat and replied to her message.
It was completely dark, the orange street lights shone down, the unique fragrance of suburban grass drifted in the air, and the tightly locked car windows kept me outside.
"Then you can ask next time. Friends, the more you know, the better the relationship. I even know about you wetting the bed when you were three."
Shut up!
"Seriously, what if she really is oblivious to the world outside her classroom and only focuses on studying sage books? What if she attends a rural school where she's the only student?"
Seeing Tu Zhizhuo's reply, Su Huaiwang scratched his head in annoyance.
More doubts arose in my mind.
If that were the case, it didn't make sense. Furthermore, if she could easily afford a villa, her family shouldn't have been short of money for her to study in the city. Did she become rich overnight?
It seemed like something was blocking her from thinking, and Su Huaiwang couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried.
She simply buried her head in the pillow to vent her anger.
Tu Zhizhuo’s reply came again.
[Don't worry, don't be so suspicious. If you want to know something, just ask directly. She won't hide it from you.]
That's the logic, but...
Su Huaiwang was still hesitant, his fingers tapping on the screen, but he couldn't type a sentence for a long time.
Tu Zhizhuo's next sentence came out quickly.
[I'm in a hurry to get home, so I won't talk to you anymore. If I don't get back on time, the couple will get angry again.]
Yes, Tu Zhizhuo told her.
After leaving her house, I have to go back to my parents' house.
Su Huaiwang sighed, and finally deleted all the sentences after deletions and revisions, and carefully typed "Bon voyage".
Tu Zhizhuo didn't reply. Su Huaiwang turned over and looked at the ceiling dejectedly.
The other side.
Although he sent a message to Su Huaiwang that he was going to set off, Tu Zhizhuo actually did not really set off in a hurry.
Instead, he got out of the car and stretched.
She hummed a song, walked into a convenience store nearby and got a bottle of water.
She was very thirsty having just finished her meal.
While drinking water in the driver's seat, she inadvertently glanced at a black car in the rearview mirror.
The car was parked on the side of the road just like her. She didn't know if it was because the light was too dim, or if she hadn't eaten enough carrots recently and had developed a bit of night blindness.
She couldn't see the interior of the car clearly. It just felt like there was a layer of black frosted glass covering the entire car, making it look dirty and eerie.
Tu Zhizhuo felt inexplicably uncomfortable and forced himself to look away.
The unfinished water was placed in the middle parking space and she started the car.
When in Country A, the most common means of transportation is driving, so Tu Zhizhuo's driving skills are actually better than Su Huaiwang's.
Just like now, even if there are not many cars in the suburbs at night, Su Huaiwang would not dare to run all the way, but Tu Zhizhuo dared.
The car sped past, not even slowing down at the intersection with the flashing yellow light.
But even so, he still couldn't get rid of the black car that was following closely behind him.
Tu Zhizhuo's hands were shaking and his eyes couldn't help but look at the rearview mirror.
The black shadow always followed her at a certain distance.
Taking a few deep breaths, Tu Zhizhuo forced himself to calm down.
Kidnapping? Not likely. Her father had already retired from that position. What's the point of kidnapping her? Crime? That's possible. After all, you can never predict who is actually a potential psychopath.
Tu Zhizhuo gritted his teeth and stepped hard on the accelerator.
If you want to cause trouble, you have to consider your own abilities!
Her parents lived in the suburbs of the city, in the southern mountains. The road leading there was naturally winding, with tall buildings on both sides and a tunnel every few meters.
Tu Zhizhuo sped along the road where the shadows of trees swayed and the light and darkness flickered.
The sign on the oil pan lit up. Tu Zhizhuo took a quick glance and his eyes immediately widened.
Damn, out of gas?!
She swore that she had never hated her careless nature so much in the past ten years.
The remaining oil was not enough to drive her home.
Tu Zhizhuo's heart almost jumped into his throat.
She looked at the rearview mirror anxiously, only to find that the black car had disappeared.
The breath he had been holding was relieved immediately, but before the relief lasted two seconds, Tu Zhizhuo became alert again.
Maybe he was just temporarily left behind by her, and was actually still following her.
No, we can't relax.
She wanted to find a place to stay and then ask her parents to bring someone to pick her up.
It is impossible for someone to live alone in a foreign country for several years without being a little vigilant.
The car drove into the gas station.
The red-painted, lighted gas station helped her calm down.
She got out of the car, her phone clutched tightly in her hand.
The suburban gas station was empty on a weekday night, without even a car.
It was actually self-service. She didn't often see this type of service in China, and she didn't expect to encounter it in this situation.
Without caring about anything else, Tu Zhizhuo wanted to just fill up the gas and run all the way home, but he saw a black shadow out of the corner of his eye.
The car had stopped at the grass next to the gas station at some point, with the dark front window facing her, looking incredibly strange.
It never turned on the lights, whether it was in the convenience store or when it was speeding on the road with Tu Zhizhuo, it always looked like this.
Follow her, stare at her, wait for her.
Tu Zhizhuo's legs went weak and he almost instinctively ran towards the gas station convenience store.
She was walking quite fast and almost fell down on the road, but she finally pushed open the door of the convenience store successfully.
The woman gasped in an unruly manner, attracting the attention of the clerk at the counter.
"What's the matter, ma'am, is someone chasing you?"
Tu Zhizhuo looked up while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
Seeing the clerk's normal face, which also showed tension and concern, made her feel a little relieved.
She nodded: "I'll stay here for a while and wait for someone to pick me up..."
The black car that was lurking outside the window disappeared.
The woman realized the problem immediately.
But instead of feeling relieved, she felt horrified.
With a "slap", Tu Zhizhuo slapped himself on the back of the neck.
There seemed to be a real pain in the back of her neck, as if something was biting her.
The panting stopped, and even the heartbeat slowed down.
Tu Zhizhuo held her breath, although she didn't know why she was holding her breath.
A string of numbers appeared in my mind unconsciously, abruptly, but also seemed to hint at something.
41563289474.
It's clearly a string of numbers with no pattern, why does she remember it so clearly?
I repeated the number several times in my mind, but no one answered.
A cold breath blew on the back of his neck, and Tu Zhizhuo turned his head stiffly.
The clerk's face had become extremely close to her at some point, so close that Tu Zhizhuo could even see its misplaced eyeballs and maggots crawling in the gaps between its flesh and blood.
The scream was strangled in her throat.
Tu Zhizhuo punched him subconsciously.
The mechanical smiling face was easily twisted and turned ninety degrees like a puppet's head.
But the thing was not annoyed, instead it laughed.
"Guest, guest, guest, guest, guest... You seem, seem, seem..."
Like a stuck tape, the sound played repeatedly in the small convenience store.
It didn't sound like a man's voice, nor like a woman's voice, but like countless voices mixed together.
Tu Zhizhuo took the opportunity to escape, but was grabbed by the ankle by a cold big hand.
With a "bang", Tu Zhizhuo fell face down on the ground.
"Hiss!" Tu Zhizhuo couldn't help but cry out in pain.
But soon, greater pain came from the ankle.
A large hand that was totally out of proportion to the clerk's petite body tightly gripped her ankle. Tu Zhizhuo grimaced in pain. He knew without even thinking that his ankle must have been bruised from being pressed.
She cursed and used her other foot to kick the monster that was becoming less and less human.
The monster's skin seemed very fragile, and every time she kicked it, some human tissue would be scraped off. After several kicks, its face was already horrible.
But it was still laughing, spitting out its bright red tongue and wanting to lick Tu Zhizhuo's calf.
"Oh my god!" Tu Zhizhuo couldn't bear it anymore and was about to pounce on it with the intention of dying together with it.
At the critical moment, there was a loud bang, and all the lights around went out, plunging into complete darkness.
"ah!!!!!"
It wasn’t Tu Zhizhuo who shouted.
Tu Zhizhuo was so deafened by the scream that she quickly covered her ears to prevent damage to her eardrums.
The tension on her ankle has loosened, but it still hurts so much that she might not be able to walk in the near future.
A flash of lightning passed by, and Tu Zhizhuo saw the woman's flying hair.
A bolt from the blue.
The smell of burning filled the air, like a mixture of the aroma of barbecue and the stench of burning garbage, which was disgusting.
The woman in the darkness casually made a gesture to dispel the unpleasant smell.
She squatted in front of Tu Zhizhuo and gently placed her hand on her injured ankle: "Are you okay?"
A warm feeling was injected into the purple part, causing numbness and itchiness.
In the darkness, Tu Zhizhuo didn't try to control his expression: "It's quite a big deal."
The other party seemed to have raised his head. In the darkness, Tu Zhizhuo could only see the other party's eyes, which were shining with a faint golden light.
Those eyes were fixed on her, and he said sullenly, "Sorry, I'm late."
-
A flawless white hand stretched out.
From a crack.
The frowning girl then walked out of the crack.
As if disgusted, she did not set foot in this messy world.
Sniff lightly with the tip of your nose.
She captured all the smells remaining on the field.
...Haha, I was a step too late, Tu Zhizhuo was rescued.
Lin Jue looked up at the sky. There was an obvious burn mark on the top of his clumsy little world.
Those were the marks left by lightning. The other party was very impatient and violent.
Now, they even ran away without cleaning up the scene.
Lin Jue closed his eyes, and after a few seconds, he regained his composure.
She opened her eyes and the world around her had changed.
Inside the gas station, cars were refueling in groups of three or four. The convenience store clerk knew nothing about it and was still sitting behind the counter bored.
Lin Jue made a "tsk" sound, and the disgust in his eyes was clearly revealed.
Useless Taoist priest, he can't handle this little tail properly, and he still wants her to do it
——What if I miss Su Huaiwang’s bedtime?
