But... the more I look at it, the more familiar it seems.
I feel like I've seen this somewhere before.
However, before I could even think of it, Jiang Zao had vanished.
Helpless, Lu Jinye could only park his car in an underground parking space and go home.
Anyway, I saw the school uniform from Zhouping No.1 Middle School, so I'll go to the school tomorrow or the day after and look for it carefully.
Having made up his mind, Lu Jinye strolled leisurely to the elevator and waited for it.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, I went inside and called my grandma to ask her to swipe her elevator card so I could get to the 18th floor.
I just hung up the phone.
The elevator doors on the first floor also opened.
The girl I just saw is walking towards me.
Having seen so many beautiful women in the entertainment industry, Lu Jinye was still thoroughly amazed by her.
It was already stunning from afar, but it looked even better up close.
As Jiang Zao stepped into the elevator, she noticed the person next to her staring intently at her. She turned her head and saw a tall man who was fully covered up.
Jiang Zao silently turned her head away.
My inner monologue is screaming: What's going on lately? Did I stumble upon a den of thieves? A while ago I ran into a thief being chased, and now I've run into another one. Who is this guy, staring at me like that? Is he seeing me as a new murder target?
In an instant, countless horror and suspense movies flashed through Jiang Zao's mind.
Even a short elevator ride of a few minutes felt incredibly long.
Looking at the little figure beside him, Lu Jinye finally understood why the child looked so familiar!
Isn't this the limping little girl he encountered in the alley when he was being chased by obsessive fans a while ago?
The situation was too tense at the time, and the lighting in the alley was poor, so I didn't get a good look at her. I only remember that she looked quite disheveled.
I never expected her to be so stunning and beautiful.
Lu Jinye was increasingly satisfied with the look. This face had to be on camera. Let those artificial beauties who claim to be beautiful every day see what it means to be all-natural and naturally beautiful.
Look at them, they're so self-conscious, always looking down on this and that.
Completely unaware of Lu Jinye's thoughts, Jiang Zao stared intently at the numbers on the elevator. Soon, they reached the 17th floor. Jiang Zao swiped her elevator card again and ran out like lightning.
Only after exiting did I turn back to look at the elevator with lingering fear.
Inside the elevator, Lu Jinye saw Jiang Zao turn around to look at her, so he smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.
This scene was even more horrifying to Jiang Zao, who was trembling with fear!
He's provoking me!?
Yes, usually when cats catch mice, they enjoy watching the mouse's panicked expression.
Jiang Zao was even more frightened, even though she was sometimes cheeky and usually seemed quite bold.
But! She was still very afraid of this kind of murderer!!
Meanwhile, Lu Jinye, the "murderer," never expected that the promising prospect he had his eye on was his downstairs neighbor.
In a better mood, Lu Jinye also stepped out of the elevator.
Lu Jinye's grandmother was waiting at the door early, watching Lu Jinye come down from the elevator.
Joyful: "Ono, you're back. Have you been tired lately?"
Lu Jinye went over and helped his grandmother up: "Grandma, why are you waiting for me at the door? Aren't you tired lately?"
Once inside the house,
Lu Jinwan also ran out of the bedroom.
Surprise: "Brother! You're back!"
As Lu Jinye watched his younger sister run out, the image of Jiang Zao, whom he had just met, flashed through his mind again.
He ruffled Lu Jinwan's hair and said, "Wanwan, you've gotten uglier again."
Lu Jinwan's happy expression froze on her face, then turned to anger: "Lu!! Jin!! Ye!!"
Lu Jinye laughed heartily at Lu Jinwan's flustered expression: "Alright, I was just teasing you. You're very beautiful."
Clearly, this perfunctory remark did not appease Lu Jinwan.
Lu Jinwan rolled up her sleeves, leaped up, and charged forward, ready to deliver a powerful dunk to Lu Jinye!
Lu Jinye had obviously anticipated Lu Jinwan's actions. He dodged left and right, turned around, and ran away.
Lu Jinwan chased after Lu Jinye and fought him all the way.
Although... I didn't hit it even once.
Grandma watched the two bickering and couldn't stop laughing; the wrinkles on her face deepened with each laugh.
"Oh, stop it, stop it."
"You two siblings always bicker and fight every time you meet."
Grandma ignored the two of them and turned to go to the kitchen to prepare a good meal for the brother and sister.
The Lu family was filled with warmth.
The Jiang family is a different story; dark clouds loom over them.
Jiang Zao let out a deep breath as soon as she entered the door; her legs were so weak with fear.
Jiang's mother sat on the sofa, looking at Jiang Zao squatting by the door, and asked curiously, "Zao Zao, what's wrong? You look so lost."
Jiang Zao jumped up and rushed over.
Jiang's mother was so frightened that her face mask almost fell off.
"What are you doing! You brat! You're going to scare your mother to death!"
Jiang Zao gripped her mother's arm tightly with both hands and shook her back and forth.
"Mom! I just saw a murderer!!"
Aunt Jiang's expression froze, then she tensed instantly: "You saw someone kill someone? Are you alright?"
Jiang's mother held Jiang Zao's hand and turned her around to check if Jiang Zao was injured.
Jiang Zao said seriously, "I didn't see him kill anyone, but his attire looked exactly like that of a psychopathic killer."
Jiang Ma stopped moving: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Zao analyzed seriously: "Just now, when I was in the elevator, I saw a man who was very tall, but he was wearing a mask and a hat, covering himself up completely. He didn't look like a good person, and I also felt that he was staring at me."
