No sleep for one night.
Ni Yangzhou was originally full of energy, able to fight the unknown man for three hundred rounds with his homemade weapons. However, as the night deepened, he gradually became lazy.
In the second half of the night, Ni Yangzhou changed his combat position, moving from the bedroom to behind the front door, and pulled a bed sheet ready. When the man entered the house, he could cover him with the sheet first, and then subdue him with tools.
But the whole night was very quiet, without any sign of abnormality.
Ni Yangzhou looked like a frost-bitten eggplant, with two big dark circles under his eyes. He opened the curtains a little, looked at the bright sun outside, and finally decided to go out for breakfast.
I originally wanted to just take a sick leave, but then I felt that the school still had clues and I couldn’t just sit there and do nothing.
Ni Yangzhou washed his face with cold water, then put on his schoolbag and went downstairs to have breakfast.
When we arrived at the breakfast shop, it was already much later than usual.
Ni Yangzhou took the tofu pudding and steamed buns from the boss in a daze, sat down and took a bite, only to find that there was a person sitting at the table across the row from him.
It was none other than Meng Ting.
"Good boy, it refreshes every morning, right?"
Ni Yangzhou was so sleepy that he blurted out what was in his mind. Fortunately, the boy opposite him didn't take it too seriously.
The boy just looked at him, walked to Ni Yangzhou's desk, and sat down face to face.
Their knees accidentally touched each other, and Ni Yangzhou subconsciously retracted his legs.
Just as Ni Yangzhou was about to open his mouth to speak, Meng Ting suddenly came closer, so close that Ni Yangzhou could even clearly see each of the boy's eyelashes.
"You didn't sleep well."
It's not a question, it's an affirmative statement.
Ni Yangzhou was stared at by such a pair of dark eyes, and it was difficult for him to utter the words stuck in his mouth.
Swallowing the bun he had barely chewed, Ni Yangzhou said, "Ah, yes, I didn't sleep well."
"why?"
Meng Ting did not move back, but remained leaning forward, very close to Ni Yangzhou, as if trying to see something from the boy's face.
"I……"
Ni Yangzhou was still thinking about whether to make up a lie or to involve Meng Ting and make him his accomplice in arresting people, when suddenly an idea popped into his mind.
Isn’t the person who installed the VCR Meng Ting?
Ni Yangzhou shuddered.
In a flash of inspiration, Ni Yangzhou suddenly looked outward in the direction of the residential area. When he turned back, there was no trace of fatigue in his eyes.
It's all excited light.
"Meng Ting." This was the first time Ni Yangzhou called the other person so formally.
Meng Ting stared into his eyes and said "hmm".
"Believe me or not?"
For some unknown reason, Meng Ting said "hmm" again.
"Then follow me and catch the pervert!"
Before he finished speaking, Ni Yangzhou grabbed Meng Ting and ran away. The tofu pudding on the table was still steaming, and the buns rolled to the ground due to the force of the force.
There was a mop and a broom standing at the door of the breakfast shop. Ni Yangzhou picked them up and ran away, shouting:
"Boss, lend it to me!"
The boss came out from the small kitchen, and the two students were nowhere to be seen.
Meng Ting was originally being pulled forward by the boy, but seeing this, he did not ask any questions. Instead, he adjusted his pace, caught up immediately, and signaled Ni Yangzhou to lead the way.
Ni Yangzhou handed Meng Ting a mop and rushed forward with a broom made of sorghum ears.
Before I ran to the corridor entrance, I saw a man wearing a black hood walking out. He had a mask on his face, so I couldn't see his features clearly, and he was quite tall.
Ni Yangzhou's feet were so fast that he stepped over the green plants from a distance and was about to catch up with him.
The man also noticed the two people running towards him, turned around and ran away.
How dare you come.
Ni Yangzhou was furious and chased after him relentlessly. The man in black took the path and leaped up with both hands, trying to jump out directly from the back wall!
The wall was more than two meters high, and it was difficult for ordinary people to climb it with bare hands.
Before he arrived, the sound of breaking wind came. Ni Yangzhou only heard a noise and saw a long stick flying towards the man in black.
The mighty mop stick hit the man's right ankle!
The man felt pain and staggered, almost falling off the wall. Just as Ni Yangzhou wanted to step forward to pull him, the man endured the pain and jumped over the wall and jumped away.
Ni Yangzhou also took two steps back to give himself some support. He tried to catch up, but he jumped hard and his hands couldn't reach the edge of the wall.
Seeing this, Meng Ting, who was following closely, started to speed up before reaching the wall, stepped on a stone nearby, and successfully climbed over the wall.
Ni Yangzhou placed his hopes on Meng Ting, but the boy on the wall did not jump down again. He looked out and shook his head at Meng Ting under the wall.
The man in black had already disappeared.
"Depend on."
Ni Yangzhou was so tired that he was panting heavily. He sat down against the wall and looked at the grass in front of him with worry.
After being out for such a short while, he dared to come into the house to get things. This means he knew exactly when I would be away from home.
If only he had more time, Ni Yangzhou thought, he could buy a video recorder during the day and put it in the bedroom. When he came back, he could use the camera in the lampshade to take clear pictures of his entire body.
Or maybe I had realized it earlier and caught him in the act at home.
Then the boy sighed again, thinking that he had alerted the enemy. Although he saw the other person's whole body, Ni Yangzhou thought about it, but in real life, it seemed that no one's body shape could match the figure.
I didn't see the eyes, otherwise I could have made a note of the characteristics.
While Ni Yangzhou was still racking his brains, the person on the wall spoke.
"Ni Yangzhou."
"Hey? Hey!" The boy squatting in the corner with a frustrated look on his face remembered Meng Ting and sighed, "Come down, Brother Meng."
Meng Ting pursed his lips when he heard how he was addressed.
“I can’t come down.”
Ni Yangzhou raised his eyebrows, took a few steps back and opened his arms.
"It's okay, jump, I'll catch you."
The boy on the wall had his legs hanging naturally, his arms resting on the edge of the wall, his head slightly lowered, and the breeze blew past, causing the corners of his clothes to sway.
The boy under the wall opened his arms and spread his shoulder blades, like a work of art with smooth lines. Ni Yangzhou had curved eyebrows and a grin with neat teeth, a bright smile.
Meng Ting jumped down against the wall and separated from Ni Yangzhou.
"Brave Brother Meng." Ni Yangzhou teased with a smile.
Meng Ting ignored the teasing and looked at the boy and asked, "What's going on? Pervert? Thief?"
Ni Yangzhou frowned again, his eyes drooping, and decided to treat Meng Ting as a righteous protagonist and pull him into his own camp.
"Come on, come home with me and I'll tell you."
The two returned home, and Ni Yangzhou skillfully took out the key from under the flowerpot at the door and opened the door.
Meng Ting behind him paused, but still spoke out.
"Not safe."
Ni Yangzhou looked at the key in his hand, sighed, and said:
"Yeah, it's unsafe. Won't that attract perverts?"
The boy behind him spoke in a serious tone.
"You didn't invite the pervert. It's the pervert's problem."
Ni Yangzhou turned around and smiled at the boy, opened the door and went into the house, walked around the bed sheets thrown casually in the living room, and took a look into the bedroom.
Okay, I won’t even pretend anymore.
The lampshades in the bedroom were not put back in place, the VCR was missing, and the whole house was turned upside down. Ni Yangzhou looked everywhere but found nothing was missing.
"Should we call the police?" Meng Ting looked at the decoration of the house and asked at the messy bedroom.
“Don’t report it. It’s useless even if you report it.
A thief broke into the hospital on the fourth floor opposite. Such a serious matter has not been investigated yet. Nothing is lost here, and no one is injured. It may take a long time for the police to investigate. "
"You don't trust the police?" Meng Ting said, looking at the man who was obviously a little frustrated.
Ni Yangzhou smiled helplessly. If it were the real world, he would definitely look for the police. But in this mission world where they report the progress to me every night, if I really rely on the police to solve the case, then don't make it a suspenseful murder drama, just call it "Police Documentary".
Unable to speak, Ni Yangzhou just shook his head and said, "Don't burden the police uncle."
Meng Ting did not insist or ask any further questions.
Ni Yangzhou opened the refrigerator, took out two bottles of water, handed one to Meng Ting, drank half of it himself, and watched the tall and long-legged boy in front of him slowly unscrew the bottle cap.
The matter was a bit complicated and he didn't know where to start. Ni Yangzhou picked and chose and said that he felt someone was peeping at him last night and found a video recorder in the light.
I don’t know if it was Ni Yangzhou’s illusion, but when he said he was being peeped at, Meng Ting seemed to lower her eyelashes and stopped looking at him with her eyes down.
“Why did he take pictures of me?”
Ni Yangzhou was holding the bottle in deep thought, while Meng Ting was still drinking water slowly.
Suddenly the cell phone rang.
The original cell phone ringtone, full of rhythm.
Ni Yangzhou quickly took out his cell phone, and another string of numbers appeared on the screen, with no notes.
Taking a deep breath, Ni Yangzhou pretended to turn his back naturally and answered the phone.
"Hey?"
"Ni Yangzhou?"
The English teacher's voice came from the receiver with majesty.
"What time is it? Why haven't you come to school yet? Do you know you are late?"
"Ah?" Ni Yangzhou looked at the clock. The morning self-study session was almost halfway through. "That teacher," Ni Yangzhou looked back at Meng Ting. He felt a little guilty, but he still made up his mind.
"I'm sick today and not feeling well. I'd like to ask you for half a day off."
The teacher on the other end was a little skeptical, but chose to care about the students' health first.
"Is it serious? Do you have a fever or a cold? Have you taken medicine? Do you need a teacher to take you to the hospital?"
Hard-spoken and soft-hearted.
Ni Yangzhou pretended to cough twice and said, "It's not serious. I'll rest at home and go back to class in the afternoon."
The teacher opposite thought for a few seconds, thinking about the boy's well-behaved behavior in recent days, and agreed, "If you feel uncomfortable again, call me immediately and I will take you to the hospital."
It is always worrying that there is no parent at home, so the English teacher gave a few more reminders.
"And that teacher," Ni Yangzhou continued.
"Meng Ting is also at my house."
The boy turned around and looked at the person sitting on the sofa holding a water bottle.
Meng Ting nodded at him.
"Meng Ting knew I was sick and came to take care of me. He said he would be back to school soon."
The person sitting there looked at Ni Yangzhou who was on the phone, and no emotion could be seen in his eyes.
The teacher was a little puzzled as to when the two of them became so close, but playing with good students was better than skipping classes and fighting.
"Okay, I was just thinking of contacting him as well."
The English teacher originally wanted to find Meng Ting first, but couldn't find his contact information, so he called Ni Yangzhou.
There is indeed no contact information. Meng Ting’s family still doesn’t have a telephone.
I don’t know if it’s because he really has no money or if he doesn’t want to settle down.
Meng Ting stood up, walked over and took the phone, "Teacher, it's me."
Ni Yangzhou watched Meng Ting take the phone and responded with a few words.
"Okay, goodbye, teacher."
Meng Ting raised his hand to return the phone, but Ni Yangzhou just looked at him without moving.
"Well," Ni Yangzhou finally took the phone and put it back in his pocket.
"Thank you, Teacher Xiao Meng."
Meng Ting raised her head and looked at the hair of the boy in front of her.
He whispered:
"It's ok.
I owe you.”
