I am a swordsman in a strange city

Chapter 16 Qingdai Building

We are clearly in the same world, but everyone sees it differently.

Someone died on a rainy night, but it was just a homicide in the eyes of others.

The beautiful tranquility on campus is just a scenery that others can admire from afar.

From this perspective, the world is divided into different aspects and is multidimensional, but these multifaceted and multidimensional aspects all have the opportunity to intersect. Of course, it is also possible that they may never intersect in a lifetime, because once they intersect, it will often cause disasters.

This kind of disaster is a man-made disaster, but it seems like a natural disaster.

The tranquility of the campus, the boys and girls' longing for love on campus, are intertwined with the hatred and killings in the city. It is obviously the same city and the same rainy night, but they look completely different.

Pei Ju wanted to give the letter directly to Zhou You, but during a break, Liu Yijia took advantage of the opportunity when he was alone and came to his side and said, "If you dare to give the letter to someone else, I will tell everyone that you wrote me a love letter."

"No, that letter was not written by me, it was..." Pei Ju argued hurriedly, but was interrupted by her before he could finish.

"I don't care. I only accepted yours, not anyone else's." After saying that, Liu Yijiajia shook her loose golden hair and turned to go into the classroom.

Pei Ju felt a little overwhelmed and didn't know what to do. During the study class, he took out the letter, put it under the book and read it carefully.

I'm so happy to receive your letter. I didn't expect you'd like me. Actually, I saw you last year. You came to our school and stood in front of my class, yelling for people to leave. I remembered the way you looked at people like they were dogs. You just didn't notice me then. Later, when we went to high school, we ended up in the same class, but you still didn't notice me. So I dyed my hair blonde, hoping you'd see. —Liu Yijiajia with blonde hair.

At the end, there is a small simple sketch. The sketch is of a little girl wearing a skirt, but only her hair is painted golden yellow, and the golden hair is flying in the wind. In the drawing, the little girl holds down the skirt with one hand and covers her mouth with the other hand. Her eyes are curved into crescents, as if she is laughing.

I have to say that her paintings are very vivid and well-made.

"Oh!" Pei Ju sighed in his heart, looked towards the middle position on the left in front of him, and saw Liu Yijiajia's dazzling golden hair at a glance.

He never imagined that the other person's hair was dyed blonde just to attract his attention.

Just when he was distracted by his thoughts, he felt the gaze of someone beside him. He turned his head and saw Ye Youruo's eyes on his letter. He couldn't help but cover it with his hand.

She turned her gaze back as if nothing had happened and lowered her head to read.

Time flows silently, making people unable to feel its rapid passage. When they wake up, they find themselves far away.

After school in the afternoon, Pei Ju left late because he knew Zhou You would definitely come.

And for some reason, Liu Yijiajia also left late today.

After a while, I saw Zhou You, who had come here on purpose.

"How is it, how is it." Although he was talking to Pei Ju, his eyes were looking for Liu Yijiajia, and Pei Ju was thinking about how to talk to him.

"Well, um, you told her, she...well..." Pei Ju was still searching for the right words, but Zhou You said excitedly: "She's here, she's here, Liu Yijia..."

Pei Ju looked back and saw the blonde Liu Yijia approaching them. She stopped in front of them and asked, "Are you Zhou You?"

"I, I am, I..."

"I like Pei Ju, not you." Liu Yijiajia said directly.

Zhou You's face flushed instantly, and he froze there. He glanced at Pei Ju, then turned around and walked downstairs in a hurry.

"Hey!" Pei Ju wanted to call Zhou You, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Liu Yijiajia didn't take him seriously at all and just looked at Pei Ju.

Pei Ju didn't know what to say to her, so he put his hands in his pockets and went downstairs. Liu Yijia followed closely behind him, also without saying a word.

When he arrived at the school gate, Pei Ju realized that he needed to walk back.

Fortunately, the school was not far from home, and he had no plan to take the bus. He walked all the way. A bus passed by him. Ye Youruo was sitting on the bus and looking at him when he got off the bus.

After a while, a few more bicycles passed by, along with several young boys and girls, one of whom had flying blonde hair.

"Pei Ju, do you want me to take you with you?" Liu Yijiajia asked loudly.

Pei Ju immediately waved his hand, but they didn't really stop and quickly went away in the sunset.

After Pei Ju returned home, he helped his grandfather prepare dinner, which consisted of fried taro slices and fried chili peppers with oil residue.

After eating, he went to the address given by the woman who called him yesterday to learn the secret forbidden science.

That place is not far away.

Golden Street.

When Pei Ju confirmed the name of the street, he found that it was next to the small street that was blocked in the morning.

Although this street is not as wide as the newly built streets nowadays, it was a prosperous place in the past, and it was a den of brothels, but it has declined now.

Many of the houses here are nationalized.

We found the address and stopped in front of a somewhat old but grand house.

Qingdai Tower.

It is said that this place was once a favorite destination for some dignitaries. They would keep a woman here for a period of time and not take her away. When they got tired of her, they would replace her with another one. The most important feature of the women kept here was their youth, and the place was not open to ordinary people.

The door was ajar. He went up and knocked, but no one answered. So he pushed it with his hand. The door was heavy. It was made of solid wood. The paint on it had fallen off, and the texture felt rough to the touch.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, and there was no stale smell inside.

total darkness.

In the depths of the darkness, there was a faint light. With this light, he saw a large stage with rows of benches underneath.

The light is deeper there.

There doesn't seem to be any electricity here.

He walked towards the light, but after he took a few steps, the door behind him creaked shut.

He shuddered all over and looked back, only to find a shadow standing next to him in the darkness, and it seemed as if the shadow was wrapping him up.

He felt a chill down his spine, but a will arose in his heart, like righteousness, like courage, and a fearless feeling.

He thought that this was the address given by his grandfather's friend, and the people here would not harm him. Combined with the fearlessness in his heart, the fear was swept away and he was able to take another step.

He walked towards a ball of light in the depths of darkness.
