It was already midnight when we returned to St. Ives Church.
Ai Xiaoqi walked into her room and prepared to go to sleep. Her hearing was better in the quiet night, and she heard Lisa's painful groans in the next room.
The voice was very soft, but it could not escape Ai Xiaoqi's ears.
Lisa was old, and Ai Xiaoqi thought she was seriously ill, so she took out a flashlight to see Lisa.
Lisa opened the old wooden door and felt someone coming. She held back her sobs and asked in a crying voice, "Is it Xiaoqi?"
"What's wrong with you, Grandma Lisa? Are you feeling unwell?" Ai Xiaoqi asked softly.
"I……"
Before Lisa could finish her words, Ai Xiaoqi saw wounds on Lisa's face in the faint moonlight.
“Grandma Lisa, what’s wrong with your face?”
Lisa tried hard to hold back her tears: "It's okay, I just fell down accidentally. When you get old, you're bound to fall down."
Ai Xiaoqi didn't believe it. She had seen all kinds of injuries. Lisa was beaten. Ai Xiaoqi stood up decisively and turned on the dim light.
At this moment Ai Xiaoqi was angry and his face darkened.
Lisa covered her scarred face with one hand and waved her other hand randomly, trying to hold back her anger as she whispered, "Xiaoqi, I'm fine. Can you turn off the lights? Don't let anyone know."
Ai Xiaoqi walked back to Lisa, held Lisa's wrist firmly, and took down her hand that was covering her face. The old lady's cheeks were swollen and there were five hot and purple finger marks.
Lisa threw herself into Ai Xiaoqi's arms: "Good girl, I'm fine, don't be angry, don't speak loudly, there are still a few days after the exam, you can move out and return to your family."
Ai Xiaoqi didn't say anything and was terrifyingly calm. She patted Lisa's back to comfort her. Lisa was the first important person in her life.
Finally, Lisa calmed down.
"Grandma Lisa, you'd better tell me, or I'll go ask Father Leon." Seeing Lisa's fearful look, Ai Xiaoqi knew that this matter had something to do with Leon.
Lisa shook her head helplessly, but still expressed the grievances that were weighing on her heart.
"Xiao Qi, the little boy was taken away?"
Ai Xiaoqi was surprised: "Where did he go?" Some children from welfare homes were adopted.
"I think he's been sold again."
Ai Xiaoqi narrowed her eyes coldly. What Lisa meant was that she was sold again, which meant that this was not the first time.
"Tell me slowly, grandma, what's going on."
"Xiao Qi, this is the fourth time that couple has come to adopt a child. They only want boys. How can a family adopt four boys? Father Li Ang must have sold those little brats to them."
Ai Xiaoqi frowned, it was possible.
"Have they completed the adoption procedures?"
"I don't know, there should be, but..."
Seeing that Lisa was hesitant to speak, Ai Xiaoqi asked, "But what?"
Lisa whimpered softly, "The little brother who was adopted last time was only six years old. I saw him on the street. He had no eyes and couldn't speak. He was begging. Woo, woo, Xiaoqi."
Ai Xiaoqi opened her eyes wide and pressed Lisa on her shoulder. She guessed what had happened.
"You tried to stop it, and Leon hit you?"
“Woo, um, Xiaoqi, don’t be impulsive. We have no evidence, the police will not care about us and Leon is not a good person, he will retaliate.”
"Don't worry, Grandma Lisa, just go to sleep! I understand."
After coaxing Lisa to sleep, Ai Xiaoqi sat by the bed, unable to fall asleep, thinking that this matter was different from Auntie Pang's, and it couldn't be solved by just beating Li Ang.
She slowly stood up and sneaked into the archive room.
After searching, they found that the information of the four little boys who were taken away had disappeared.
She went into the monitoring room again, where there should be surveillance records of orphans entering and leaving the welfare home.
Ai Xiaoqi watched the video replays one by one, and all the videos were deleted.
"It's done really cleanly, there must be something wrong."
But the two years she spent with Lu Hao were not in vain. Ai Xiaoqi inserted her USB drive into the computer and entered a plug-in program. The deleted video records were restored in an instant and stored in the USB drive.
The missing part was the evidence of Li Ang reselling orphans.
Li Ang is just an ordinary person with no knowledge level. He can only delete files on the surface. He doesn't know how to do anything else and he doesn't even know the existence of backup files.
Ai Xiaoqi endured it silently and continued to go to school as usual, waiting to deal with this scum after the college entrance examination.
The next morning, Ai Xiaoqi sent Lisa to the hospital. Lisa's injuries were not just superficial as she seemed. Her heart disease had relapsed and was very serious.
Li Ang watched Ai Xiaoqi's struggle coldly and ignored her with contempt.
On the way to school, Ai Xiaoqi checked the official website of Bloody Mary. Dao Ye was far ahead in points, and everyone knew the name of Dao Ye.
Ai Xiaoqi shook his head worriedly. The kid just loves to show off.
When I walked into the classroom, I was a little surprised to see Rukawa already sitting in his seat reading a book.
"Why is it so early today?"
Rukawa's head popped out from the book: "The early bird catches the worm?"
"Well, that's good, you've made progress, eat the bugs well."
Rukawa smiled foolishly: "Work hard with you."
"Well, good."
At the end of the day, Rukawa always felt uneasy.
Ai Xiaoqi is different from before. She has become very close to me and more casual.
But... before, I felt a sweet ambiguity, but now... in the refreshing air, it seems as if there is a clear 38th parallel drawn, and we are clearly maintaining a distance. This feeling is without the shyness of a little girl, which is good, but also bad.
After racking my brains, I finally realized that this is friendship, pure friendship.
This was not what he wanted. He did not want to be friends with Ai Xiaoqi. What he wanted was Ai Xiaoqi's affection for him in the cinema. He wanted to hold her hand and stroll in the garden. He wanted to kiss her cheek and give her a happy little home.
Is this the end for me? Just a flash in the pan? I watched a movie that ended without beginning, and I was out, just like Zhan Ze.
Rukawa avoided his own guesses and tried his best to make the final sprint for the college entrance examination, but the feeling of clear boundaries became more and more real.
The day before the college entrance examination, Zhan Ze appeared in front of Ai Xiaoqi again.
"Xiao Qi, I'll wait for you at the Computer Science Department of B University."
That is the best department in B University. With Ai Xiaoqi's grades, she will definitely choose that department, and Zhan Ze will also be able to get in.
Ai Xiaoqi just looked at him with disgust.
"This is for you. Good luck on your exams. See you at B University."
An exquisite gift box was stuffed into Ai Xiaoqi's hand. Ai Xiaoqi shook it in his hand, threw it directly into the trash can, turned around and left without saying a word.
Talking to him is a waste of life.
After a miserable June, the college entrance examination is finally over.
Ai Xiaoqi walked out of the examination room with ease, shouting in his heart, here I come to B University.
A bright smile, a naughty wink, and a playful face revealed behind a bunch of huge black roses.
"Sister, congratulations on passing the customs."
Ai Xiaoqi took the black rose from Daoye's hand and asked: "What does it mean to give a black rose?"
Dao Ye: "This is Louis XIV, very expensive, the flower language is for the big devil, only you in my life."
Ai Xiaoqi kicked Daoye's calf lovingly, and an apricot-colored crossbody bag was hung around Ai Xiaoqi's neck.
"And this is for you."
After saying this, Daoye pointed mysteriously inside the bag.
Ai Xiaoqi opened her bag a little, then showed her white little teeth and smiled with satisfaction.
Inside was the latest model of ivory-white revolver.
