【"I am Jane Lai's psychological counselor, may I come in?" Zhou Shuyi stood in front of Jane's house nervously with two tickets for the violin recital in his pocket.

"Come in." Jane Lai walked out with a pair of thick black-rimmed glasses and opened the courtyard door.

Under the leadership of Jane Lai, Zhou Shuyi crossed a lawn with blue and white ruts.

Zhou Shuyi saw that the location of Jian Lai's residence in the contact book was quite remote, and thought that Mr. Jian must have built a large-scale and magnificent courtyard, but the scene in front of him was far from what Zhou Shuyi had imagined.

Although the house of Jian’s family is spacious, the courtyard door is old and weeds are overgrown in the garden. When entering the large living room on the ground floor, there is only a long table and a few wooden chairs. The entire row of silver radiators on one side of the wall is exposed to dim light. Take out two pieces of discarded old heating pipes.

What surprised Zhou Shuyi was that there was no servant in the three-story building of Jian's house, and the only one who stayed at home was the junior high school student in front of him.

"I really don't understand the brain circuits of rich people." Zhou Shuyi sighed while walking.

"You're not a child from a commoner family." Jane Lai revealed calmly.

Zhou Shuyi laughed when he heard the sound. There was indeed a lot of money piled up in his father's passbook, but it was obviously not innocent. The mother and daughter usually didn't dare to flaunt and squander it in Lucheng. Much more ferocious than in the city.

Zhou Shuyi's family lives in a [-]-square-meter apartment building, which is very inconspicuous at first glance, but if you have the opportunity to enter, you will find that the interior is magnificently decorated, especially the basement is even more unique.

"Mr. Jian left you alone in such a remote house?" Zhou Shuyi looked around and couldn't believe it.

"My father will come back every three or two days." Jian Lai was surprised by Tang Shuyi's fuss.

"Then what about eating? Who will cook for you?" Zhou Shuyi made the mistake of asking the bottom line again.

"There is a restaurant in the alley nearby. I eat there all year round. Are you hungry?" Jane Lai misunderstood Zhou Shuyi's meaning.

"That's not true." Zhou Shuyi rubbed the violin concert ticket in his pocket, not knowing what to say.

"Are you here to apologize? If so, then there's no need, I don't care so much." Jane Lai seemed to understand Zhou Shuyi's mind.

"I just asked you to go out for fun." Zhou Shuyi made up her mind and took out the violin concert tickets in her pocket and spread them out on the long table.

"Six o'clock in the afternoon, it's time for us to leave." Jane Lai glanced at the time on her wrist, turned around and took off the coat from the hanger, and led Zhou Shuyi out with a bunch of heavy keys.

"By the way, is it really safe for you to live here alone?" Zhou Shuyi turned around and looked at Jian's dilapidated house and opened the car door.

"It's not very safe." Jane Lai actually gave an affirmative answer after getting into the car.

"Then why didn't you talk to Mr. Jian?" Zhou Shuyi was quite puzzled by Jian Huailin's various ways of disposing of her daughter.

"I told you before, my father said that I made too much fuss." Jane Lai pursed her lips and frowned.

"Since I was seven years old, I was often taken away by a man on the way home from school. I haven't seen his face, but I can feel that he is of medium height and likes music very much, because he always plays nice music in his car." Jane Lai fastened her seat belt silently.

"Could that man be Mr. Jian's business rival or something?" Zhou Shuyi used her brain to guess.

"I don't know either, it's just that there are some holidays." Jane Lai turned her head and looked at the street outside the car window.

"Why do you say that?" Zhou Shuyi asked suspiciously.

"Because the way that man took me was a bit rude, that man always rushed from behind on the way from school, covered my mouth and nose with a mask, and when I woke up, I would see that ghost-like woman, that The woman looks very ordinary, about 26 or [-] years old, with a strange red line growing on her ankle, and her eyes are ghastly, like a monster growing in the mud." Jane Lai clutched the corner of her clothes with her fingers.

"That's really terrible." Zhou Shuyi felt a little cold behind her.

"It's good to get used to it. If you can't change things, you can only try your best to adapt. My cousin Jian Yusen once raised a pet dog. A few times ago, he used a whip to yell and scold the pet dog into a wooden cabinet. Later, as soon as he opened the cabinet open the door, the pet dog will automatically get in and wait for the cabinet door to close, that's how I am. I told that woman, you don't need to spend a lot of effort to charm me in the future, as long as you or a man appear, I will follow you obediently. " Jane Lai spoke in a calm tone.

"That woman agreed?" Zhou Shuyi couldn't help asking.

"I agree. I haven't seen that man appear since then, and as long as that woman appears at the door of the house, at the school, or on the way home from school, I will obediently follow her." Jane Lai's negative response completely surpassed Zhou Shuyi's. expected.

"What will she do next?" Zhou Shuyi subconsciously had a bad association.

"That woman will lock me in a dark and narrow room and say crazy things through the door." Jane Lai leaned against the car window with her clothes closed.

"Why didn't you report it?" Zhou Shuyi pointed out the most unreasonable part of the whole incident.

"I went to the police, but it was very strange. The police ignored it as if they were in collusion. Later, I probably knew that it was what my father meant. In Lucheng, my father's power can override the law. If he doesn't want other people to No matter, then no one has the right to intervene in this matter." There was a little confusion in Jane Lai's tone.

"Your father thinks you're lying?" Tang Shuyi remembered what Jianlai's class teacher Qi Yue said.

"Probably, because my mother was a lunatic before she was alive, so he always thought that there was something wrong with my brain, and he never believed my words." Jane Lai lowered her head slightly and looked a little lonely.

"My mother is a violinist. She regarded music as her life during her lifetime. She collected seventeen violins, all of which are rare treasures. My father felt that my mother valued music more than him, so after a quarrel one day, My father broke all seventeen violins one by one behind my mother's back. My mother went crazy when she came back and saw the situation. She was 20 years old at the time, and she had just given birth to me, and she hung herself within a few months He died in the room where my father broke the piano, and my father never lived in that house again, and moved here alone with me." Jian Lai faintly told a story about the Jane family that shocked Zhou Shuyi even more.

Only now did Zhou Shuyi fully understand that Jane Lai's intentional act of stabbing her finger to attract Qi Yue's attention was actually asking for help. 】
