Chapter 51 The truth

The cruelty of children is more straightforward than that of adults. Because they don't know the consequences of what they do, in the face of people or things they don't like, they will only use the most violent means to express their likes and dislikes - especially in adolescence.

And Lu Zuozi is the one who is not liked.

"She was in our class at that time and was bullied very badly." Jiang Xinhong said, "Everyone hated her and regarded her as someone who didn't exist."

"You didn't take her with you when you took the class photo?" Lin Qiushi thought of the photo they had seen in the archives without one person.

"Well..." Although Jiang Xinhong hesitated, he still answered Lin Qiushi's question, "Although there are thirty-four people on the roster, our class claims to be thirty-three."

The students in that class artificially erased Lu Zuozi from their class. They refused to talk to Lu Zuozi, refused to take photos with Lu Zuozi, took her as air, and no one was willing to talk to her.

"What happened after that?" Li Dongyuan continued to ask calmly.

"There was an accident after that..." Jiang Xinhong's voice became a little difficult, and there was an unspeakable fear in his expression, "She is dead."

Both of them quietly waited for Jiang Xinhong to continue.

"She had an accident and died suddenly." Jiang Xinhong said, "Now that I think about it, it is indeed a bit too much. After she died, no one in the class showed any sadness, and even..."

"I even wrote a song." Li Dongyuan helped Jiang Xinhong to add the last sentence.

"How did you know?" Jiang Xinhong didn't expect them to know so much, and was taken aback.

"I've said it all, we know a lot." Li Dongyuan looked at Jiang Xinhong and said with a smile, "Continue."

"You probably all know what happened next." Jiang Xinhong smiled bitterly, "That song is cursed, and anyone who sings it will die."

"You haven't sang before?" Lin Qiushi asked when it finally came to the question they were most interested in.

"No." Jiang Xinhong's tone was firm, "I thought it was too much to do that, so I didn't sing..."

"The classmate you talked to just now didn't sing?" Li Dongyuan asked.

"No." Jiang Xinhong said, "The two of us played very well, so I told him not to sing."

"Interesting." Li Dongyuan smiled.

Frightened by Li Dongyuan's expression, Jiang Xinhong said anxiously, "That's all I know. Let me go. It's going to get dark soon, and I have to go back."

Lin Qiushi looked at Li Dongyuan, Li Dongyuan nodded, indicating that Jiang Xinhong could leave.

Jiang Xinhong breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed his backpack and ran all the way. Li Dongyuan looked at his back and said, "What do you think?"

Lin Qiushi: "It's not very good." Although Jiang Xinhong's rhetoric was not flawed, he had an intuition that the man was lying.

"Oh, what do you say?" Li Dongyuan asked.

"You should know better than me." After getting along for this period of time, Lin Qiushi also knew that Li Dongyuan is a person. If there is anything abnormal, he must know better than himself. Sure enough, Li Dongyuan laughed and looked at Lin Qiushi with something else in his eyes: "Are all people in Obsidian so interesting?"

Lin Qiushi: "No, I'm the most boring one."

Li Dongyuan said, "Jiang Xinhong is indeed lying, but he just doesn't know why he lied and where he lied. Do you remember what he said when he first met us?"

Of course Lin Qiushi remembered, he frowned: "Is Lu Zuozi someone who shouldn't exist?"

Li Dongyuan: "Yes."

Lin Qiushi suddenly said, "So it is."

Li Dongyuan: "Smart... I always like to work with smart people. Let's go and meet Zhu Meng and the others."

The meaning of Li Dongyuan's words is not complicated - Lu Zuozi is a person who shouldn't exist. If Jiang Xinhong really thinks he has done something wrong, then he can't say this sentence. Lu Zuozi, who was obviously a victim, became someone who should not exist in his mouth. Even though it has been several years and so many things have happened, Jiang Xinhong has no intention of repenting, and even said When he said this, there was a little bit of disgust in his fear that could not be concealed.

Of course, all of these are their inferences, which have yet to be verified. One of the most incomprehensible details is that if Jiang Xinhong hates Lu Zuozi, why didn't he sing the song that made fun of Lu Zuozi? Is it really his conscience to find out?

With such doubts, Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu reunited again.

I don't know what happened to Ruan Nanzhu and Xia Rubei when they were alone. Xia Rubei had tears in her eyes, and when she saw Li Dongyuan, she came over aggrievedly and called Meng Ge.

"What happened?" Li Dongyuan asked her.

Xia Rubei glanced resentfully at Ruan Nanzhu, who was full of innocent eyes: "He scared me..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Hey, don't talk nonsense, I'm also very timid, how can you say that I scare you."

Xia Rubei: "You were telling ghost stories just now!"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Where's the evidence?"

Xia Rubei: "...what evidence is needed for this?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Brother Lin Lin, she still wants to slander me without evidence—"

Lin Qiushi and Li Dongyuan both had headaches on their faces. In the end, Li Dongyuan couldn't take it anymore and made a stop gesture, saying Mengmeng, can we not care about the little girl.

Ruan Nanzhu: "What do you mean? You mean I'm not a little girl anymore?"

Li Dongyuan still had a strong desire to survive, and said, "No no no, I mean you are a great beauty!"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Tsk."

Lin Qiushi quickly changed the topic and told Ruan Nanzhu what they had just talked to Jiang Xinhong. Ruan Nanzhu felt similar to them after hearing it. They all felt that Jiang Xinhong had a big problem, but it was impossible to know the specific problem for the time being.

"Let's go, it's getting dark, let's go back and talk about it first." It was originally school time, but after such a delay, the sky gradually darkened.

They talked and walked all the way, and returned to their place of residence before it was completely dark.

As soon as arrived at the residence, it was completely dark outside, and the silent campus was shrouded in darkness.

Lin Qiushi was standing in the corridor smoking a cigarette and thinking about something, when someone tapped his shoulder, he turned his head and saw Li Dongyuan.

"Borrow a fire." Li Dongyuan said.

Lin Qiushi snorted and saw Li Dongyuan come over and lit the cigarette in his mouth with the sparks on his cigarette.

"What are you thinking?" Li Dongyuan asked.

Lin Qiushi shook his head, indicating that he didn't think about anything. He felt a little tired today and didn't want to talk much.

"When did you join Obsidian?" Li Dongyuan's voice was nice, gentle, and magnetic, and the tone of the question seemed to be whispering a lullaby, "How long have you been in?"

"Not long, a few months." Lin Qiushi exhaled.

"Who brought you in?" Li Dongyuan continued to ask.

"Ruan Nanzhu." Lin Qiushi felt a little dazed. This state is very strange, like standing in a soft cloud, warm and comfortable, which makes people involuntarily relax their body.

"Where's Zhu Meng, do you know her?" Li Dongyuan's question continued.

"Know." Lin Qiushi felt something was wrong, and he wanted to struggle to get out of this state.

Li Dongyuan also seemed to be aware of Lin Qiushi's struggle. He stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly on Lin Qiushi's shoulder: "Don't be nervous, I won't ask too much questions." He leaned into Lin Qiushi's ear and whispered, " Who is Zhu Meng?"

Lin Qiushi opened his mouth uncontrollably, just when he felt that he was about to hold on and was about to say the answer, he reached out and heard Ruan Nanzhu's indifferent voice: "Li Dongyuan, you treat me like this? "

Li Dongyuan retracted his hand and smiled.

Lin Qiushi woke up suddenly, aware of his strange state just now, he threw away the cigarette, and became angry for the first time: "Li Dongyuan, what did you do to me just now!"

Li Dongyuan still had a cigarette in his mouth, and spread his hands in an innocent gesture.

Ruan Nanzhu applauded: "Awesome, as expected of the leader of White Deer, but if this thought was used in the door, we would probably have gone out long ago."

Li Dongyuan: "Mengmeng, don't be so fierce."

"Go, Lin Lin." Ruan Nanzhu was very unhappy, "stay away from this person in the future."

Lin Qiushi nodded, turned and walked to Ruan Nanzhu.

Ruan Nanzhu stretched out his hand and patted Lin Qiushi's shoulder carefully, as if there was something dirty on his shoulder - this place was touched by Li Dongyuan just now.

Li Dongyuan wasn't annoyed, he still smiled.

After the filming was clean, Ruan Nanzhu led Lin Qiushi back to sleep without talking to Li Dongyuan the whole time.

The twilight was dark, the lights went out, and the room fell into silence, only the sound of even breathing after a few people fell asleep.

Lin Qiushi was a little tired. He thought he would fall asleep soon, but he couldn't fall asleep even after tossing and turning.

He finally fell asleep, but in the middle of being half asleep, he was woken up by another sound.

After Lin Qiushi woke up, he quickly found the source of the sound...it was his upper bunk.

Crunching, like Ruan Nanzhu tossing and turning on the bed, Lin Qiushi was about to whisper, but the crunching stopped suddenly.

Just above Lin Qiushi's head, a bed away, suddenly there was a singing voice: It's ridiculous that Sachiko called herself Zuozi since she was a child. She likes bananas very much, but she can only eat half a banana at a time, so pitiful, Zuozi is gone. I should be forgotten in the distance, so lonely Sako...

This song is a girl's voice, a little immature, but the lyrics sing, make people feel cold all over.

Lin Qiushi didn't dare to move, he closed his eyes and faced the wall.

The singing became louder and louder from top to bottom, as if something singing had climbed down the bed.

"It's ridiculous that Sachiko called himself Sachiko since he was a child..." The singing sounded behind Lin Qiushi, and he felt that his body began to get cold, and the thin bedding lost its function of keeping out the cold.

Boom...boom...boom...the thing behind him started to jump on the floor, getting closer and closer to Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiushi finally couldn't hold back, opened his eyes, sat up and leaned towards the wall behind him. But after leaning in, he felt something was wrong. Through the bright moonlight, he saw that the wall behind him was smeared in a mess, and it was covered with all kinds of vicious curses. The most striking one was red. The three words Lu Zuozi were written by the pen.

Lin Qiushi also saw the person standing in front of his bed.

No, that cannot be called a person at all.

The girl in the school uniform had her hair loose and her body twisted to a weird extent. She only had one foot, and the place where the other was empty was empty. At this moment, she was bouncing on the floor with her only foot. sing that song...

She originally had her back to Lin Qiushi, but after hearing Lin Qiushi sitting up, she turned her head 180 degrees and looked at Lin Qiushi.

"Can you hear?" she asked.

Lin Qiushi felt cold all over, not knowing how to answer.

"Can you hear that?" she continued.

"What did you hear? Your singing?" Lin Qiushi forced himself to calm down. Everyone else in the room was still sound asleep, but he was the only one who woke up from his sleep because of the sound.

"Crying, she's crying," she said. "She's crying so sadly, why no one hears her."

Lin Qiushi: "Who is she, is it you?"

The thing in front of her didn't answer, she just said: "She obviously didn't do anything, why did they treat her like that.

After she said these words, Lin Qiushi actually heard the cry. The cry came from outside the window. It was extremely miserable, and it was also mourning, like a seriously injured person.

"It hurts, it hurts, please save me, please..." The cry was mixed with pleading, "Don't go, don't go."

Lin Qiushi's eyes widened when he heard these words, and he finally understood.

Sure enough, the next moment he heard a familiar voice: "Let's go, let's go, leave her alone, she's hurt like that, how could there be any help."

"But..." The other person hesitated.

"Help me, save me—" The girl heard their conversation and begged even more desperate, "Don't go, I don't want to die, I don't want to die."

"Let's go!! If others find out, we will be arrested and put in prison. Do you want to spend the rest of your life in prison?" !"

"Okay, okay." The companion finally compromised, and there were hurried footsteps, as if the two had left.

"Woo woo, woo woo woo..." The girl who was thrown on the spot cried loudly, the fear of pain and death enveloped her, her cry became more and more desperate and weaker, and finally the voice finally faded. inaudible.

Lin Qiushi listened to all this, and a cold sweat broke out on his back. He had heard the voice of this conversation, it was Jiang Xinhong and his friends who had met during the day.

"It hurts." Zuozi in front of him said slightly, "It hurts... Did you hear..."

Lin Qiushi didn't know whether he should have heard the answer or not. If he answered incorrectly, he would be taken away directly by the things in front of him.

"It hurts, did you hear that?" She was still repeating, but she stretched out her hand towards Lin Qiushi, but when she was about to touch Lin Qiushi, she seemed to be stopped by something, and she let out a sharp sound. The cry instantly disappeared in front of Lin Qiushi's eyes.

Lin Qiushi's chest was beating like a drum. He found a photo of a group photo where Zuozi left. He glanced at it roughly. The people in the group photo were all classmates from the third and second classes of high school, but this time Zuozi was standing in the group photo. at the very center, smiling brightly at the camera. While looking at the photo, Lin Qiushi suddenly smelled a strong smell of smoke, as if something was burnt. He looked down and found that the talisman paper under the mattress was burning. It seemed that it was all this mess. The talisman paper stopped Zuozi who was about to attack him just now.

The smoky smell also wakes up the rest of the house.

Ruan Nanzhu was the first to wake up, and he said, "Lin Lin, what's the matter?"

Lin Qiushi's face was covered in cold sweat, but whatever was in front of him finally disappeared. He calmly said, "It's okay, that Zuozi came over just now."

Xia Rubei also woke up, and when she heard Lin Qiushi's words, she said shiveringly: "What, what's coming?"

"Zuozi." Lin Qiushi, "It's all right, you can continue to sleep."

Xia Rubei: "..." How could she sleep?

Before Xia Rubei said a word, Ruan Nanzhu grabbed her line and said softly, "Lin Lin, I'm so scared, come and sleep with me."

Lin Qiushi: "..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Lin Lin, why don't you talk, don't you love me?"

Li Dongyuan joined in the fun: "Mengmeng, I love you."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Listen, there are strange things talking in the room, come up quickly."

Li Dongyuan: "..."

Lin Qiushi looked helpless, but he did want to talk to Ruan Nanzhu about something privately. There was no chance to be alone during the day, so this time is not bad.

So after a long time, Lin Qiushi climbed onto Ruan Nanzhu's bed again.

The bed was a bit narrow, and the two could only lean against each other, but Ruan Nanzhu squeezed into Lin Qiushi's arms very naturally, and rubbed it twice.

Lin Qiushi whispered: "Stop rubbing."

Ruan Nanzhu: "I don't, I will rub it."

Lin Qiushi: "..." Pi, are you really happy now? Forget it, he must be super happy.

The limbs of the two people almost overlapped, and Lin Qiushi's mouth came to Ruan Nanzhu's ear and whispered to Ruan Nanzhu what happened just now, and handed him the photo.

After hearing this, Ruan Nanzhu was silent for a moment, put away the photos, and said, I understand, go to sleep first, and discuss in detail when you wake up tomorrow morning.

Lin Qiushi: "Well..." The weather is actually a bit hot. The two big men should be hot and crowded next to each other, and they are sweaty, but Ruan Nanzhu exudes a faint fragrance, which is not feminine. , on the contrary, it was a bit clear, Lin Qiushi smelled it for the first time.

He couldn't hold back and said, "Mengmeng, you are so fragrant."

Ruan Nanzhu said: "This may be..."

Lin Qiushi: "Huh?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "The fragrance of a virgin."

Lin Qiushi: "..." If I didn't know that you were older than me, I might have believed it, the fragrance of a goddamn virgin.

In the end, Lin Qiushi didn't understand why Ruan Nanzhu was so fragrant. Sleeping pills were sleeping pills after all. As long as he lay beside Ruan Nanzhu, Lin Qiushi basically fell asleep in seconds. As soon as he opened and closed his eyes, it was the next morning.

Because of the accident last night, everyone didn't sleep well, and the chief representative was Xia Rubei. This girl has two dark circles under her eyes when she wakes up, she looks like a national treasure.

Ruan Nanzhu still wants to tease her, what is it, haven't fallen asleep, which lover do you want to go?

Xia Rubei said angrily, "What kind of lover, where did I come from!"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Don't you like Li Dongyuan?"

Xia Rubei's face flushed all of a sudden, she didn't expect Ruan Nanzhu to say this directly, and her tears almost fell: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not, I don't... You still say me, you don't Do you like Yu Linlin too!"

She originally thought that she was fighting against Ruan Nanzhu's army, but who knew Ruan Nanzhu's shameless nodded and admitted it, saying, "Yes, I just like Lin Lin, Lin Lin is so cute, who wouldn't like it? What about him?"

Xia Rubei: "..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "You don't like Lin Lin."

Xia Rubei: "..." At this time, she finally realized that she and Ruan Nanzhu were indeed not on the same level, so she lowered her head dazedly and didn't say anything.

Ruan Nanzhu's invincible expression is so lonely.

Lin Qiushi knew that he had a lot of drama and was too lazy to care about him. Li Dongyuan also saw through Ruan Nanzhu's soul, and the two ate breakfast silently beside him. Because Li Dongyuan touched Lin Qiushi yesterday, and Lin Qiushi doesn't have a good face towards him now, Li Dongyuan said cheekily, "Lin Lin, are you still angry?"

Lin Qiushi: "Mr. Li, are we not that familiar yet?"

Li Dongyuan: "Oh, can I apologize for my behavior yesterday? It's not that Mengmeng is not willing to take care of me, I just want to know more about him..."

Ruan Nanzhu was unhappy sitting next to him: "Li Dongyuan, I will sit next to you and ask what I want to ask directly."

Li Dongyuan: "I'm afraid you won't tell me."

Ruan Nanzhu: "How do you know that I won't tell you if you haven't asked?"

Li Dongyuan: "Then what's your real name?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "I won't tell you."

Li Dongyuan: "..."

Lin Qiushi almost didn't laugh out loud.

However, Lin Qiushi can see that he is not Li Dongyuan's opponent. In the face of this smiling tiger role, Ruan Nanzhu is very good at it, and he can block Li Dongyuan speechless every time.

"By the way, didn't that Zuozi come here last night? What new discoveries?" Li Dongyuan was very interested in what happened last night after eating.

"Yes." Ruan Nanzhu took out the photo Zuozi left to Lin Qiushi directly from the bag, "She left such a photo."

Li Dongyuan looked at the photo carefully.

Ruan Nanzhu held his chin: "Did you find anything?"

Li Dongyuan: "Yes."

Xia Rubei also looked at the photo next to her, listening to the conversation between the two, she was a little at a loss: "What do you mean... Is there anything wrong with this photo?" She picked up the photo and looked through it repeatedly, but she didn't find anything special.

That's right, if you don't remember what the original second class photo was like, it's hard to notice the abnormality of this photo for a while. Lin Qiushi feels that his memory seems to be much better, and he doesn't need to compare at all. He can remember it clearly now. Pick up the details of the group photo in the archives.

Ruan Nanzhu directly placed the photo he stole from the archives next to this photo, Xia Rubei glanced at it and exclaimed: "One more person..."

"Yes." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Not only one more, but two less."

Xia Rubei: "The two missing... are..." After she searched carefully, she widened her eyes, "Is it Jiang Xinhong, and his friend?"

Ruan Nanzhu showed a look of pity: "You are so smart."

Xia Rubei: "..." Why did she feel that Ruan Nanzhu was insulting her.

The author has something to say:

Ruan Nanzhu: Lin Lin, you smell so good...

Lin Qiushi: This may be...

Ruan Nanzhu: Huh?

Lin Qiushi: The fragrance of a single dog.

Ruan Nanzhu: ...

Yesterday on the Lantern Festival, my friend said he had a seafood meal, and I asked him what seafood he ate, he was kelp. ← It used to be a joke. In fact, he ate the rice noodle.
