The light was very strong and everything in front of them was a bit blurry. Fang Zhi kept staring at the girl who was pretending to be a ghost. He was afraid that the little girl would suddenly disappear. He stared at the little girl's back and didn't dare to relax for even a moment.
The little girl didn't disappear even after they finished eating in the cafeteria.
After eating early in the cafeteria, Gu Xizhou and the others sent the children to the school gate. As expected, they saw the beautiful woman appear at the gate again. When she saw the gate open, she stood in the crowd and stared at every child that came out like the other parents. It seemed like she was looking for her child.
"Bye bye." After sending off the last child in class, Teacher Zhao walked back and said to them, "Everyone did well today. Pack up the toys on the playground and go home early!"
Perhaps because she had been interacting with the children for a long time, Teacher Zhao's voice was soft and light. Her tone was light and especially gentle.
Si Yu lightly said, "Okay."
Gu Xizhou looked back and indeed saw the children's toys on the playground behind the pillars. He also noticed that there were a few more strangely shaped white circles on the ground, scattered randomly on the ground.
Noticing Gu Xizhou's gaze, Si Yu had a tacit understanding with him. He said to his teammates, "When we pack up later, don't enter the white circles on the ground."
"Okay, Si Ge!" The short-haired girl's eyes held a smile as she hurriedly replied.
"Tsk, you only know how to curry favor. Why don't you look in the mirror?" Zhang Miao sneered and continued, "It's just a few random white circles drawn by children. What's there to be afraid of?"
The short-haired girl heard Zhang Miao's words and raised her eyebrows unhappily, "This is a mission world. There's nothing wrong with being careful. I'm not trying to curry favor with Si Ge."
"You know very well whether you are or not." Zhang Miao stuck out her tongue and followed the others to the playground to pack up.
Although there were a lot of toys on the ground, there was a box in the hallway of the playground for these toys. It wasn't troublesome to pack up. They packed up together and were almost done very quickly.
Gu Xizhou rubbed his head, feeling a headache. He threw the pile of toys in his arms into the box and said to Si Yu, "That woman also came today."
"Yes." Si Yu and Gu Xizhou looked at each other. "Let's ask her later."
Gu Xizhou nodded. "Okay."
Fang Zhi had just finished packing up when he suddenly shouted, "Don't enter the circle!"
Hearing his voice, Gu Xizhou and Si Yu turned to look at the field at the same time. Zhang Miao was standing in the chalk circle that the children had drawn in the morning. She picked up the toys on the ground and waved at Fang Zhi and the others. She said proudly, "Look, aren't I fine? Don't make a fuss over nothing! "
As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, a loud crash was heard in Gu Xizhou!
They only saw a white object flash in front of their eyes, followed by the sound of a heavy object crashing into the ground. The few of them were shocked.
Fang Zhi opened his eyes and saw blood all over the floor.
Zhang Miao was lying in a pool of blood. Her body was in a twisted position on the ground. She was obviously dead. Her body happened to be in the chalk circle on the ground.
Gu Xizhou still remembered when Si Yu asked the child who was drawing the circle, the child said, "Here's the head, here's the hand …"
Fang Zhi and Gu Xizhou looked at each other. Gu Xizhou looked at Si Yu and frowned. "These white lines are crime scene traces."
Crime scene traces — these white lines were used to fix the position of evidence. Often, they would draw such white lines around the corpse at the scene of a crime. It was mainly used to deduce and reconstruct the scene of the deceased's death. The most common crime scene traces were used to fix the corpse's movements.
"Crime scene traces?" The short-haired girl came back to her senses. Her lips were pale. "The white lines that the police drew?"
Gu Xizhou said, "Yes."
"But in this mission world, it's more accurate to use a white line of death. Don't step on the circle! "
Gu Xizhou looked at the round clock on the roof of the school building and said, "Let's go out of the school gate and take the bus back. It's uncomfortable to stay here."
Two people had mysteriously disappeared in one day. The cause of death was so inexplicable. Gu Xizhou shamelessly grabbed Si Yu's clothes.
"You …"
Gu Xizhou looked at Si Yu and asked innocently, "What did I do?"
Si Yu looked at Gu Xizhou's hand that was grabbing his clothes. He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he held back and didn't say anything.
Unknowingly, the image of Gu Xizhou slapping his butt popped up in his mind …
Forget it.
After all, the person in front of him was someone he couldn't beat.
When they reached the school gate, the beautiful woman still hadn't left. Si Yu stepped forward and dragged Gu Xizhou, who was grabbing his clothes. He ignored the 100,000 Pent in front of the beautiful woman and asked softly in a clear voice, "Hello, your child hasn't come out yet?"
Gu Xizhou: Coming, coming, he's flirting with the NPC!
Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman turned a deaf ear to Si Yu's question. She completely ignored Si Yu and continued to stand at the school gate and look around.
At this moment, a familiar voice came from beside him.
"Si Ge, Gu Ge, the bus is here! Are we taking the bus? Or … should we wait for a while? "
Upon hearing this question, Gu Xizhou and Si Yu simultaneously looked at the bus that was about to arrive at the station. The three girls also looked at the bus. They were a little uneasy and uneasy. Everything that had happened today had really frightened them.
"Ma 'am." Si Yu didn't give up and shouted again. The woman still ignored them. He turned around and said to the others, "Let's take the bus first."
As he spoke, he immediately got up and rushed over. Gu Xizhou, Fang Zhi, and the three girls followed closely behind. The sound of the bus arriving could be heard. The six of them got on the bus one by one. This time, the woman didn't get on the bus with them. She continued to stand at the school gate in a daze.
The bus moved slowly. The pedestrians outside seemed to be covered in a layer of mosaic.
Si Yu was thinking about the beautiful woman at the gate when he suddenly felt someone elbow his waist. He didn't even need to think to know which shameless Gu Xizhou it was. He narrowed his eyes and looked outside. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you want?"
"Look at the people on the bus," Gu Xizhou said calmly. "Aren't they the same as the people on the bus when we went back yesterday afternoon?"
Upon hearing this, Si Yu looked at the other people on the bus. They were really the same as the people on the bus yesterday.
"What's the special meaning behind this?" Gu Xizhou asked.
Si Yu rolled his eyes at him. "How would I know?"
After the two of them told the others about this discovery, they tried to communicate with the people on the bus.
At this time, the sun was just right and the sunlight shone on Si Yu's body. At this time, his sick and tired appearance reflected the sunlight, making it seem as if his skin was reflecting the light. His thin lips were pursed with a faint sense of coldness.
When they spoke to the people on the bus, they would all respond. However, their answers were always the same and didn't provide any useful information.
Everyone asked twice and confirmed that their answers were the same. Just then, the bus arrived at the station.
"We've arrived. Let's get off the bus," Gu Xizhou said calmly.
Everyone walked to the back door of the bus without hesitation. As soon as the bus stopped, Gu Xizhou was the first to get off the bus.
"Hello?" Gu Xizhou supported Si Yu, who was the second to get off the bus.
When Si Yu got off the bus, he almost lost his balance and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Gu Xizhou was quick and caught Si Yu just like yesterday.
This time, Gu Xizhou touched Si Yu's forehead. It was burning hot and his face was full of fatigue. Gu Xizhou asked with concern, "Thigh, are you okay?"
Upon hearing Gu Xizhou's concerned voice, Si Yu didn't care how Gu Xizhou addressed him. He leaned his chin uncomfortably on Gu Xizhou's shoulder and said, "My head is spinning."
"I'll support you," Gu Xizhou said calmly.
Si Yu nodded and closed his eyes. Seeing him like this, Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and said, "Forget it, I'll carry you."
Soon, Gu Xizhou noticed that Si Yu, who wasn't in a good state, didn't refuse him and was very obedient. Gu Xizhou carried him upstairs.
After going upstairs to rest for a while, Si Yu felt better. He drank some water and went to lie down in his room.
Since Si Yu wasn't feeling well, Gu Xizhou was the only one who could handle the rest. "There are six of us left. We've made sure that two people will share a room. Tonight, the three of you will share a room and the rest of us will share a room. If anything happens tonight, knock on our door and look for us."
The three girls nodded.
Soon, it was night time. Gu Xizhou had just finished washing up and was sitting on the edge of the bed. At the same time, Fang Zhi also finished washing up and came out of the bathroom. Gu Xizhou raised his head and looked at Fang Zhi. Fang Zhi walked over quickly and sat on the edge of the bed. He was a little upset. "We should have known that those white lines were the fixed lines of the crime scene. If I had figured it out earlier, she might not have died!"
Gu Xizhou smiled at him and pointed at Si Yu who was lying on the bed. He said softly, "Si Yu already reminded her, but she didn't believe it."
Fang Zhi grabbed the blanket and sat on the bed in frustration. He was still regretting Zhang Miao's death.
Gu Xizhou knew Fang Zhi's character well. He patted Fang Zhi's shoulder calmly and didn't say anything. As long as he let this guy have a quiet night, he would definitely figure it out.
"Gu Ge, Si Ge isn't feeling well. Why don't you sleep next to me?" Fang Zhi asked softly when he was about to turn off the lights.
Gu Xizhou thought for a moment and felt that it made sense. He was about to move to Fang Zhi's bed.
"It's okay … you can sleep on this bed." Si Yu had woken up. He stretched out his hand and said to Gu Xizhou, "Give me the handcuffs."
Gu Xizhou: "…"
Si Yu: "You don't want to?"
Gu Xizhou thought about the two teammates who had died today. He immediately shook his head and obediently handed over the handcuffs.
"Kacha."
After Si Yu handcuffed Gu Xizhou's left hand, he lay down on the bed. After a while, Si Yu's faint breathing could be heard.
Fang Zhi saw this and asked, "Gu Ge, why do you and Si Ge sleep in handcuffs?"
"Sigh, Xiao Fang, I won't hide it from you. Actually, Si Ge told me today that he wanted me to give myself to him." Gu Xizhou sighed sincerely. "He said that he felt safe sleeping with me in handcuffs. He was afraid that I would disappear without the handcuffs."
Fang Zhi was like a frightened rabbit when he heard Gu Xizhou's words. Fang Zhi was so shocked that he couldn't speak. "You, you guys …"
Gu Xizhou was amused when he saw Fang Zhi's blank and confused expression.
Si Yu rubbed his burning forehead and opened his eyes. He stared at the white ceiling and said weakly, "Gu Xizhou, be a human and speak properly."
Gu Xizhou: "I'm telling the truth!"
Si Yu: "…"
Gu Xizhou: "You dare to deny it?"
Si Yu: "…" Error, please refresh the page and try again.
