be a ghost
Chapter 13
Gu Qingyu's hometown is in a city in the north. Not long after autumn began, he felt the coolness of early winter. There were layers of fallen leaves scattered on both sides of the street, and as the autumn wind blew across the sky, every corner was filled with the bleakness of late autumn.Gu Qingyu lives with his grandfather. His grandfather's house is in a somewhat remote suburb. Most of the houses here are self-built and single-family. Without the apartment buildings in the city, life here is quiet and comfortable.
"It's still very big, this house." It was similar to the scene in Yi Xiao's memory, except that the bustle of the time was gone.Grandpa Gu Qingyu's house is close to the foot of the mountain, and there is a small yard. From the outside, there are some flowers and plants planted in the yard, probably because people often take care of them and they are all colorful.Inside is a two-storey small villa-like house. The wall of the yard is about two meters high, and the gate is an iron gate.
"Of course it's big. There used to be a lot of people." Gu Qingyu said proudly. He still remembered that his father designed and built their house, and the first floor was for grandparents. He vaguely remembered that grandparents were still there at that time. , he lives on the second floor with his parents.Children from relatives often came to play, and it was very lively every day, but it was a pity that it was only him, grandpa, and this empty house.
Now only grandpa is left alone, suddenly he wants to know what is going on with him, no matter what it is, he wants to find his body quickly, if it is really so unclear, it will be gone, Grandpa will still be very sad.
Yi Xiao looked at Gu Qingyu who was looking up at the house with a little silence in his eyes, walked slowly to Gu Qingyu's side, looked at Gu Qingyu's side face and said softly: "I will help you, Go ahead and have a look."
Pushing the iron door, it opened with a creak, "Unlocked?"
After Yi Xiao came in, he took a look at the small yard. A small fence was built near the wall, which was filled with various kinds of flowers. It can be seen that the people who live here like to grow flowers.There is a tall tree on the other side of the door, but it is not very high, just past the fence.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Yi Xiao, who was looking at the tree at the gate of the yard, didn't notice someone coming out of the house. He turned around and saw a tall, thin young man about his age, with pale skin and a little too long hair His hair slightly covered his brows and eyes, and he stared at Yi Xiao with vigilance and questioned him, it seemed that he was misunderstood.
"Hello, I'm Yi Xiao, Gu Qingyu's classmate..." Yi Xiao looked at this person who looked somewhat similar to Gu Qingyu, and was about to explain his purpose when Gu Qingyu ran up to him. Beside him, he pointed to the person opposite and shouted, "Ah cousin!"
"Ah... are you here to find Xiaoyu?" When the young man heard that he was looking for Gu Qingyu, he immediately realized that he had misunderstood just now, so he lifted his vigilance and said in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry Ah, because there are very few people here, so just now I thought... Oh, I am Xiaoyu's cousin Gu Hongchuan."
Gu Hongchuan invited Yi Xiao to enter the house. The living room on the first floor is very large. On the roof is a simple square fluorescent lamp. The TV is hung on the wall on the right side of the entrance. The furniture in the house is all wooden, giving it an antique feel. There are fine patterns carved on the handrails of the stairs, which shows the fine decoration.
Gu Hongchuan poured a cup of tea for Yi Xiao, gently placed it on the tea table, motioned him to sit casually, and then said in a soft voice: "Very few people come here, and grandpa is not around all the year round. Occasionally come here to help take care of the house," he pointed to the flowers in the yard, and said with a smile: "These flowers were planted by my grandma before, but my grandpa specifically told me not to let these flowers die."
Gu Hongchuan's voice is gentle and soft, and his voice is also soft, with a slight cough occasionally. He is probably not in good health, his face is pale and weak, he should be drinking medicine all the year round, and his body still has a faint smell of Chinese herbal medicine .
"Yes, yes, grandpa loves these flowers. The first thing he cares about when he calls back occasionally from other places is these flowers," Gu Qingyu echoed from the side, and then hummed with a puffed face with some resentment: "No Care about how I am... I have been left at home by his old man since junior high school, and the number of times I see him is pitifully rare!"
Seeing Gu Qingyu's sad little expression, Yi Xiao couldn't help laughing, only to receive Gu Hongchuan's puzzled look.Gu Hongchuan's eyes suddenly looked in Gu Qingyu's direction, which made both Yi Xiao and Gu Qingyu stunned.
"What's wrong?" Yi Xiao asked tentatively.
Gu Hongchuan rubbed his eyes, shook his head and said, "Ah, it's okay, I seemed to be dazzled just now."
This answer made Gu Qingyu heave a sigh of relief, he thought his cousin could see him too, his cousin is not a celestial master, if he really saw him, he would not know how to explain it.
Yi Xiao glanced at Gu Hongchuan suspiciously, but didn't ask any more questions, his restrained expression explained the purpose of his visit this time.
After hearing this, Gu Hongchuan was stunned for a moment, then recalled and said: "Well...Xiaoyu came back before, but left after staying for a day."
"When did he leave?"
"Just a week ago." This time happened to be when Senior Su Chen contacted Gu Qingyu before, Yi Xiao thought for a while and then asked: "Then do you know where he went, and what's the matter when he came back? "
Gu Hongchuan didn't answer immediately, but after listening to Yi Xiao's question, his face changed, and he asked with a worried look: "This...is something happened to Xiaoyu?"
Yi Xiao thought that he hadn't investigated clearly yet, so he directly said that Gu Qingyu's situation might not be believed by the other party, so he replied: "Because there are some things in the school that Gu Qingyu needs to go to, but he asked for leave recently, and he couldn't be contacted, so I just stopped by." Come here and look for it."
"Can't get in touch? How come?!" Looking at Yi Xiao with wide eyes, he said a little loudly. Gu Hongchuan's tone was a little anxious, and his eyes were full of worry. Xiaoyu was usually very obedient, and he would tell his family wherever he went.He slowed down, tried to calm down and recalled: "Xiaoyu came back and said he was looking for grandpa, but he left without seeing him. He told me that he was going to another place, but he didn't say where... ..I thought he'd be back at school soon."
In the end, Yi Xiao left a phone number for Gu Hongchuan, and both parties could contact each other if they had any news.Without much lingering, Yi Xiao and Gu Qingyu left their hometown, intending to go back to the city center first.As soon as they returned to the hotel at noon, they received a call from Su Chen, saying that they would come to find Yi Xiao later.
This came later, and Su Chen didn't show up until dinner.In the afternoon, Yi Xiao checked Gu Qingyu's ticket purchase records, and found that he hadn't bought a ticket back here after he came here; then he used a small magic to call out the surveillance cameras in each section of the city to check one by one.Gu Qingyu, who was watching from the sidelines, was eye-opened, sighed that Tianshi could still work as a hacker part-time, and asked Yi Xiao enthusiastically if he could increase the amount of money in his bank card.
"...There is no such operation, I only use the search spell to adjust the monitor, what are you thinking?" Yi Xiao looked at Gu Qingyu dumbfounded, even if he is more like this now, he still won't use it. ah.
When the doorbell rang in the evening, Yi Xiao opened the door and was slightly startled by Su Chen's loveless face, so he asked him why he became like this.
"Ah...don't mention it, although this internship was recommended by Su Ya'an, but after I came here, I found that my father is actually serious about the people here, and he is in a certain machinery manufacturing company," Su Chen threw himself on the side of the room after entering On the big bed, he said tiredly: "That's why I didn't know that my father told me to go directly to the workshop, saying that it was for me to experience the basic work... Ah——I'm exhausted!" After finishing speaking, he grabbed his hair and rolled around on the bed irritably.
"Hahahahaha!! Senior, you have today too!!" After hearing this, Gu Qingyu gloated and laughed at Su Chen, clutching his stomach. Although he knew that the other party couldn't hear him, he still had to laugh at him, feeling very refreshed!
Suddenly Su Chen stopped rolling, slapped hard and raised his head suddenly, with a ferocious expression.This sudden change frightened Gu Qingyu to shut up instantly, staring at Su Chen stiffly and motionlessly.
"Father wants me to give up learning mechanics, hum! I'll stick to it and show him the best!" Su Chen clenched his fists hard, grabbed the quilt under him, and said angrily, gnashing his teeth.
"It's still very big, this house." It was similar to the scene in Yi Xiao's memory, except that the bustle of the time was gone.Grandpa Gu Qingyu's house is close to the foot of the mountain, and there is a small yard.
