"Not like it." Pei Chi said.

"what?"

"It should be an animal corpse."

It was pitch black, and Sheng Xia Li felt uneasy. She leaned against Pei Chi and said, "You should go wash your eyes first. I'll help you."

"Ah."

She wasn't as clever, and without her eyes, she felt even less secure. "Do you think he has accomplices?"

"No one came out to help him."

"Well, I hope there's no one else."

Just in case, Sheng Xiali ran out and picked up the kitchen knife. The suspicious man was still lying on the ground. He didn't die from being kicked!

She couldn't help but think of the time when the body was discovered and both she and Pei Chi were arrested as suspects. But Pei Chi would definitely not go to jail, leaving her alone...

Under the moonlight, she stood by the door, her face dull, a kitchen knife in her hand, her pretty little face covered in dirt.

Just as she was in a daze, Pei Chi suddenly came over and lifted her chin with his hand.

"Hiss—" Sheng Xia Li cried out in pain from the wound on her face, looking back in dissatisfaction, "What are you doing? That's too rude."

After she finished speaking, she realized that Pei Chi's expression was not right.

His face was sinister, and his eyes were as cold as ice.

Shengxia was stunned and for a moment forgot the pain on her face.

She had been kicked a few times, and her face might have been a little disfigured and still in pain. Pei Chi's expression was so grim, could it be that he was really disfigured?

No, she values ​​her face more than her life!

In the middle of summer, I was moved to tears.

Hot tears slid down her cheeks and dripped onto Pei Chi's fingers.

He suddenly came back to his senses and was stunned. Sheng Xiali looked at him eagerly, waiting for him to comment on her face, but he actually kissed her on the forehead!

"Burp...what are you going to do again?"

Sheng Xia Li couldn't help but look at him warily. Her body was covered in sand, and her hair was as messy as straw. She had just touched it and found that it was all sand and the blood that the man had sprayed out was also stuck on it, not to mention her face was disfigured. Pei Chi wouldn't be in heat at this time, right?

Pei Chi took the knife from her hand and walked a few steps outside.

In the summer: "Pei Chi?"

He said, "Kill people."

"......!!!" Sheng Xiali hurriedly caught up with him, grabbed his hand holding the kitchen knife, and said anxiously, "Calm down!"

It is problematic that a suspicious guy suddenly took out a kitchen knife and fought with them, but there is no surveillance and no evidence here. If he killed someone, that would be irrefutable evidence.

The scene in her mind resurfaced. Pei Chi was acquitted, while she was left in prison...

No! !

"Pei Chi, Pei Chi, don't be angry. I'm actually fine. Can you put the knife down?" Sheng Xia Li felt miserable. He was injured and had to persuade a mentally ill patient. "It's not worth getting bloodstained for such a person. Let's sleep here first and think of a solution tomorrow morning, okay? Pei Chi!"

She took hold of his knife-hand, cold as ice, and tried to pry his fingers away to remove the handle.

Pei Chi finally looked at her, without saying a word, his black eyes surging, but Shengxiali felt with ecstasy that his strength was gradually diminishing.

She immediately took the kitchen knife and wanted to put it back into the house, but Pei Chi pulled her and held it in his arms.

“…Pei Chi?”

The hand pressing on her back was trembling slightly, and Shengxiali realized belatedly that he seemed to be afraid.

What are you afraid of? Is it because of her?

"I'm sorry." Pei Chi said in a whisper so soft it was almost inaudible, "I failed to protect you."

Shengxiali opened her mouth wide in surprise, swallowed a few mouthfuls of sand, and then closed it again, "You..."

My heart felt like it had been torn open, with cold winds and warm currents hitting it alternately.

Maybe she had a concussion. How could Pei Chi say such a thing?

She must have heard it wrong.

Sheng Xia Li really hoped that this was the case. She threw the kitchen knife aside, pushed it away, then covered her heart and said in shock, "Don't say such things. You scared me."

Pei Chi: “…”

His eyes turned cold again and he turned back into the house.

Sheng Xia Li stood there to calm down, put that sentence behind her, and followed him, "What should we do with this person?"

"Tie them up."

A few minutes later, the suspicious man was tied up and thrown against the wall. Pei Chi didn't seem to be curious about what he did. After Sheng Xiali's repeated insistence, he accompanied her to see it.

It was concluded that the suspicious man might be a butcher.

Sheng Xia Li's eyes lit up, "It's possible that he was the one who stole Anai's lamb!"

Pei Chi showed no interest at all, "Oh."

“…” It really makes me feel unfulfilled.

Forget it, let’s lock the doors and windows first. I can’t turn on the lights here. Let’s wait until tomorrow morning.

By the time Qiu Ming and the others woke up, she would tell them that she had found the (suspected) sheep thief and ask them to find someone to send a car to pick them up.

Kill two birds with one stone, perfect.

She just wanted to take a shower now, she wanted it very much, extremely much, and when she heard that there was hot water, she almost cried.

The two found clean clothes in the suspicious man's closet, and Pei Chi asked her to wash them first.

She was covered in dirt and rolled in the sand several times, looking much more miserable than Pei Chi.

It’s just that the shower area is a bit shabby, blocked by several boards.

Before going in for a shower in the middle of summer, I spent some time preparing myself mentally: No one is watching, no one is watching, no one is watching...

Still afraid, Sheng Xiali's weak voice floated out, "Pei Chi, how about you go first?"

Pei Chi: "Shall I help you wash?"

"……never mind."

Wow, the conditions are even more difficult than those at Anai’s house!

"Don't go away, I'm scared to be alone..."

"Ah."

Compared with other terrifying factors, Pei Chi's weight seems not that heavy.

In this unfamiliar environment, it is simply a stabilizing force!

In the middle of summer, take off all your clothes and stand under the shower to rinse your body.

There's a draft here, and after a while the hot water hits my body, a cool breeze blows over me.

She was so scared that she couldn't speak, and could only pray that she could move quickly and leave here.

It was quiet for a while, and she would call out "Pei Chi" from time to time to confirm that the other party was waiting outside.

What did I do wrong to end up like this?

As she was washing, she suddenly felt a chill, as if something was watching her.

She mustered up her courage and said, "Pei Chi, are you peeking at me?"

Pei Chi: “…No.”

“What is that…Ahhh!!!”

A scream that resounded through the sky rang out. When she turned her head, she saw a pair of small eyes in the gap of the template. They disappeared immediately after their eyes met hers.

She was almost frightened to death and couldn't even hear Pei Chi calling her.

Then Pei Chi rushed in, and Shengxiali quickly pulled a towel around herself, praying that she would not be exposed in the dark.

"Outside, outside!" She pointed at the board in shock.

Pei Chi paused and ran out.
