Wen Qing looked at Xing Ze in a daze.
Xing Ze was standing two meters away, his posture upright. His cold brows relaxed slightly, showing a little more gentleness, as if an iceberg had melted.
He looked calm, as if he was answering an ordinary question and stating an established fact.
Wen Qing blinked, came back to his senses, and asked, "What do you mean by accompany me?"
Xing Ze's lips relaxed, and his tone was slightly amused: "It means exactly what it says."
"Just to accompany you and spend the rest of the time."
Wen Qing was still a little stunned.
Because of Xing Ze's honesty, and also because I thought of Bai Tong, Ji Junfeng and Oz.
Although the three did not tell him, what they did was the same as what Xing Ze said.
Also accompanying him.
Spend twelve hours in this world.
Wen Qing pursed his lips and asked again: "Do you know how long you can stay here?"
"Yes," Xing Ze nodded, "twelve hours."
Wen Qing responded softly, "Twelve hours."
They are the same.
Except for the time you stay in this world.
These people have another thing in common.
I like him, or rather, I am obsessed with him.
Wen Qing was distracted for a moment and realized the problem.
Io has something more important to hide from him.
Xing Ze lowered his eyes slightly and stared into Wen Qing's clear eyes. His dark pupils were a little out of focus at the moment, as if he was thinking about something or someone.
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he took two steps forward and stopped in front of Wen Qing.
Xing Ze slowly leaned over and came closer.
Even though the distance was so close that their breathing was entangled, Wen Qing did not come back to his senses.
Xing Ze looked at Wen Qing's long eyelashes trembling slightly, and felt a little angry in his heart, but more of helplessness and amusement.
She was angry that he hadn't noticed her yet, but she was helpless that Wen Qing trusted her too much, so she was in a daze even at this distance.
"Wen Qing." Xing Ze called softly.
"Hmm..." Wen Qing raised his eyes and met Xing Ze's eyes.
The other person's warm breath brushed across her cheek, feeling both hot and itchy, and Wen Qing's cheeks inevitably turned red.
Xing Ze spoke slowly: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm--" Wen Qing paused, then realized that he and Xing Ze were too close, and he almost touched Xing Ze's lips when he spoke.
Wen Qing quickly took a step back, putting some distance between them, and stammered, "No, I didn't think about anything."
Xing Ze lowered his eyes. Wen Qing didn't want to talk, so he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he said, "Can you leave the rest of the time to me?"
"Today is Saturday, you don't have to go to school."
Wen Qing pursed her lips and whispered, "Nothing happened today, but I just saw Xia Yansi and Ji Sheng downstairs."
Hearing these two names, Xing Ze frowned, he didn't know about this.
"So it was the security guard who accompanied you back just now."
"Did they see you?"
"No," Wen Qing shook his head and said briefly, "I saw them go to the next building. I'd like to trouble the security guard to investigate, but the surveillance is broken, so it's not clear where they are for now."
Hearing this, Xing Ze strode to the door, opened it, and lowered his head to check the door lock.
The door lock is a three-in-one fingerprint, password and key.
Xing Ze lowered his head to check for a moment, frowning even more tightly: "This kind of lock is not safe and can be easily broken."
"Especially for the two of them."
Wen Qing pursed her lips and asked, "They don't seem to know where I live."
Xing Ze said calmly: "Even if they don't know, they should find this place soon."
Wen Qing was stunned: "Why?"
Xing Ze raised his eyelids and said calmly: "Because we are here for you."
Wen Qing was stunned.
Xing Ze walked back to the living room and continued, "I came to see you to spend these twelve hours."
"Their goals should be the same."
"Just think of them as dogs that can find you by smell."
Xing Ze looked around and didn't find the toolbox in the living room. He turned around and asked Wen Qing: "Where is the toolbox?"
"Let me reset the door lock for you."
Wen Qing shook his head: "I don't know."
"I'm not very familiar with this place either."
Xing Ze responded and walked straight to a room at the end near the living room.
A moment later, he came out carrying a toolbox.
The whole process took less than five minutes.
Wen Qing's eyelashes trembled: "How do you know where it is?"
Xing Ze seemed to know this place better than he did.
"I don't know, I'm just guessing," Xing Ze said truthfully. He walked to the door and removed the electronic lock while saying, "Since the toolbox is not in the living room, it must be in the adjacent room."
“Even though you won’t use it, there will definitely be a day when you need it, so it will be placed in a conspicuous place so it’s easy to find.”
Wen Qing pursed her lips, and suddenly the words 001 had said popped into her ears.
【Do you like him? 】
[What do you think of the final punishment? ]
[The punishment you saw before clearing the dungeon. 】
…………
Wen Qing tilted his head and looked at Xing Ze who was fiddling with the door lock seriously.
An incredible thought flashed through my mind.
He walked quickly to the table, picked up his phone which was still charging, and tried to contact Io.
But the phone only had a little bit of power and couldn't be turned on.
Wen Qing is not very dependent on his mobile phone. He has been using this phone for many years and has never changed it.
It fails at the critical moment.
Wen Qing gritted his teeth and thought that he must get a new phone later.
Suddenly, the video intercom on the wall rang.
Wen Qing glanced outside. The door was open and he could see at a glance that there was no one outside.
Xing Ze put down the screwdriver, stood up and answered the phone.
The face of the security guard was shown on the videophone screen. He was sitting in the property office and said with a smile, "Mr. Wen, our captain has caught the younger of the two people you just mentioned."
"He broke into someone's house and was knocked down. The captain has contacted the police, but he is being sent to the hospital first."
Wen Qing walked forward quickly and asked, "Did you only catch the younger ones?"
"Yes," the security guard nodded, "It seems that it was because he ran slowly. Another older man said that he had already run out of the community."
Wen Qing was a little surprised. He didn't expect the community security guard to be so reliable.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, not hard at all." The security guard responded with a smile.
"If there is any follow-up, please let me know."
"Okay, okay, no problem." The security guard patted his chest and assured.
He had just hung up the phone when a cold voice sounded in front of him: "Thank you for your hard work. Are you reporting the situation to the resident who provided the clue?"
"Yes," the security guard scratched his head and looked up at the indifferent man in front of him, "He doesn't look very old. He was scared at the time."
"Now that we've caught one, at least he can feel at ease."
"Uncle security guard, you guys are so good, you will definitely catch the other one soon." Another teenager said with a smile.
The security guard was so flattered that he couldn't stop smiling and said, "Oh, it's mainly because our captain is so good."
"Of course, the most amazing thing is you guys, you subdued those two criminals."
Ji Sheng said with a smile: "If you hadn't arrived in time, maybe my father and I would have been subdued."
The security guard looked at Ji Sheng and then at Xia Yansi.
This father and son looked quite similar to the two suspicious individuals described by Wen Qing, but they were dressed completely differently.
He said curiously, "I seem to rarely see you in the neighborhood."
Ji Sheng smiled and said calmly, "We rarely live in this neighborhood."
"I just happened to come over for a look today, and I didn't expect to run into something like this."
The security guard said "oh" twice and didn't think any more about it.
The residents of Nancheng Community are all wealthy people, it is impossible for them to have only one house.
Xia Yansi glanced at the videophone next to the security guard, wrote down the building number, and said to Ji Sheng, "Let's go."
"Okay, let's go home." Ji Sheng curled his lips and skipped out.
"Little Dad, we have to thank our brother."
"Um."
"How should I thank him? There's not much time left."
…………
The other side
Xing Ze fixed the door lock and debugged it successfully before he put away the toolbox and said to Wen Qing, "It's done."
"Let's go out."
Wen Qing was stunned for a moment: "Go out?"
He thought Xing Ze had locked the house to keep them safer at home.
Seeing what he was thinking, Xing Ze said casually: "It's not just to protect against Xia Yansi and Ji Sheng."
"It's to make you live here more safely."
