Shoulder to shoulder

Jian Xuezhou didn't get off work normally for a while, so when he was stuck on the road, he got a little angry.

In the past two days, the coastal typhoon has passed through the border, which has affected Hongcheng from time to time. Jian Xuezhou's cell phone was turned on, and a reminder text message came in. After only one glance, Jian Xuezhou's anger rushed up.

Then it was wiped out again helplessly.

The rainstorm reminds that the weather is the most uncontrollable.The traffic was moving extremely slowly, the sky suddenly darkened, and the cumulus clouds in the distance flashed a bright light.

Jian Xuezhou failed to drive on the most congested section of the road, and the torrential rain came down.

Within a minute, the traffic flow was completely blocked.

Jian Xuezhou closed his eyes and let out two long breaths to adjust his mentality.

When I opened my eyes again, I simply turned on the radio of the music station to pass the boring time.

When she went out in the morning, she told Bi Guo that she would be home on time tonight, but now it seems that she will not be on time no matter what.

I don't know if Bi Guo will take what she said to heart, whether he is waiting for her now, or just doing his own business indifferently.

Jian Xuezhou picked up his phone and swiped twice. There was nothing else on WeChat except the messages from the two editor-in-chiefs.

Jian Xuezhou hesitated with his fingers, and finally quit WeChat and threw the phone aside.

I said to give the little girl time to relax, so she couldn't go back on her word so quickly.

For a journey of more than 20 minutes, Jian Xuezhou was stuck in traffic for a full hour and a half.

When the car drove into the community, the rain had stopped, but the cloud had not cleared, and it looked like it was still dark.

Jian Xuezhou got out of the car, walked a few steps, and looked up.

This time I couldn't see Bi Guo on the terrace, the place was empty, even the room was dark and the lights were not turned on.

Jian Xuezhou frowned, and quickened his pace.

When he heard the knock on the door, Bi Guo jumped up like a fighting cock.

She held her mobile phone in her hand, and it was so hot that she didn't drop the mobile phone even when she went to open the door for Jian Xuezhou.

After the door opened, Jian Xuezhou said naturally: "The road is blocked, so I came back late."

Bi Guo's head was full of other things, he was a little dazed, he just said "um", then turned around and hurried into the room.

She has thought of all the ways she can think of, and now the only reply she can give her is to wait for the news.

Bi Guo kept clicking and opening those dialog boxes, and kept refreshing the Internet, hoping that some good news would pop up.

But nothing.

Bi Guo circled back and forth, and then turned out of the room. Jian Xuezhou hadn't changed his clothes yet, and was sitting in the living room to rest.

When Bi Guo saw her, he hesitated to speak in a panic, and when he was about to turn back again, Jian Xuezhou stopped him.

"Biguo, what's wrong with you?" Jian Xuezhou asked calmly.

Holding the phone, Bi Guo rationally told himself that this matter had nothing to do with Jian Xuezhou, and Jian Xuezhou couldn't help, so he shouldn't bother Jian Xuezhou.

But in Hongcheng, she didn't know many people. Now that someone who seemed mature and reliable asked this question, Bi Guo couldn't help leaning over.

She stood in front of Jian Xuezhou, and her voice trembled when she spoke: "Sister Jian, I am a friend, and I can't get in touch."

"Huh?" Jian Xuezhou sat up straight, "What kind of friend, since when did you lose contact?"

Bi Guo finally had an outlet for her panic. She quickly explained her relationship with Ji Lan to Jian Xuezhou, and then anxiously and confusedly talked about Tian Ji Lan's abnormalities, all the way to the last Weibo post at noon today.

Of course, she didn't talk about Jian Xuezhou's influence in this matter, and the emotions that she ignored her friends because of her idol made her feel extremely ashamed.

"Has a similar situation happened before?" Jian Xuezhou asked, "What did she say after she came back that time?"

"Just say it's something at home, too busy." Bi Guo said, "Although she disappeared for a long time that time, she didn't stop updating or post strange Weibo, and she even told me in advance."

"What's going on at her house?"

"I only know that her parents are still alive, and she has a younger brother. After she becomes full-time, she hides from her family and lives in Beishi by herself."

Jian Xuezhou glanced at Bi Guo: "Give me her mobile phone number."

Bi Guo pinched the phone, suddenly wanted to cry: "I don't have her phone number."

"Did you exchange phone numbers after two years of acquaintance?" Jian Xuezhou frowned, a little incredulous.

"Usually the two of us keep in touch. When we first met, she told me that because she lives alone, she pays attention to personal privacy. Later, I think we are quite close, and I want to send her a letter for her birthday. Gifts, she said that good friends don’t need to give up such favors.” Bi Guo’s voice was a little choked, “Now I understand, she doesn’t believe me at all, I don’t have her phone number or address, I only know that she lives in Beishi.”

"Does she have a boyfriend?" Jian Xuezhou paused, "or other friends I mentioned to you."

Bi Guo shook her head, shaking her tears down: "She said that she resigned to be a full-time author because she didn't like communicating with people."

"Then how is she doing when she usually talks to you?"

"It's pretty good." Bi Guo couldn't figure it out. "She is very interesting and has many hobbies. We can talk about everything, movies, music, politics and gossip. She also likes football. She will drink and watch all night. She is obviously very lively. one person……"

"Then why do you think she probably can't think about it now?" Jian Xuezhou looked at Bi Guo.

Bi Guo looked up at her, his eyes were a little itchy, and he wiped the tears on the back of his hands: "I...it's my fault, I must have felt it, I've felt it a long time ago, something is wrong with her, many things are wrong, but she doesn't Mention, I didn't ask..."

Bi Guo burst into tears, her voice choked up: "Because I just want to chat with her happily, and I'm afraid of hearing unhappy things..."

Jian Xuezhou bent down, took out two pieces of paper and handed them to Bi Guo, and said with downcast eyes: "Don't cry, come and sit down, and talk to me about the method you have already thought about."

Bi Guo took the paper, wiped his eyes dry, sucked his nose and sat next to Jian Xuezhou, and turned on the phone to Jian Xuezhou: "I asked on Weibo, but Ji Lan usually doesn't interact with people, so there is no news."

"This is her Jinjiang account. I went to contact her editor. The editor gave her the phone number she filled in when signing the contract. I called, but the number is now empty."

"Ji Lan signed the contract early, and the address of the contract is difficult to check. It may be useless if you find out. And I know that the ID card she used when signing the contract is not her own."

"I sent her a lot of messages, and I said everything I could, but she ignored me. Weibo is no longer online." Bi Guo wanted to cry as he spoke, rubbing his face and holding back, "the editor said Let me wait, even if I call the police, I can't tell..."

Jian Xuezhou said: "You have done a good job."

"It's useless." Bi Guo looked up at her.

"Everyone's life is decided by themselves. She hides the information so well, she just doesn't want to have unnecessary entanglements."

Bi Guo didn't expect Jian Xuezhou to say that, she was stunned, all the panic that was originally uncertain, at this moment, attacked her as if the fact had already happened.

Bi Guo's fingers trembled and her voice trembled. She grabbed Jian Xuezhou's arm and stared into her eyes: "No, no. If something happens, I can't bear it, I really can't bear it, and I will feel guilty all my life ,I……"

She paused, let go of Jian Xuezhou abruptly, and stood up: "For my own sake, I have to continue looking for her."

Jian Xuezhou didn't speak, Bi Guo grabbed the phone, and left in a hurry like when he came over.

Jian Xuezhou looked at her back, stared at her as she entered the room, and then leaned back on the sofa, dazed for a while.

What can the little girl do, if she doesn't get any news, she will probably have to cry to sleep tonight.

Jian Xuezhou sighed, took the phone, and sent a message in the group.

Soon, the contact information of the stationmaster of Jinjiang Literature City was sent. Jian Xuezhou got up and went to the terrace.

Not long after the phone call, all the information about Ji Lan signing the contract was sent to Jian Xuezhou's mobile phone.

Sure enough, he did not use his own ID card. The person on the ID card was over 40 years old.

Jian Xuezhou looked at the address, and found that it was in Beishi, as Bi Guo said.

But whether the real person is in that city, no one can say for sure now.

Coincidentally, Jian Xuezhou's flight at five o'clock tomorrow morning, the place where he is going on a business trip is Beishi.

Turning the phone around in his hand, Jian Xuezhou moved to the left, and stood where Bi Guo was waiting for her on the terrace.

There is a pot of tuberose in the left hand, which will be in bud and full of fragrance.

Jian Xuezhou turned around, walked back, and sent his ID card information to Bi Guo's WeChat, then went to the master bedroom and knocked on the door.

Bi Guo almost rushed over to open the door. She stared and said, "Sister, how did you get these? The editor said that the author's information should not be disclosed under normal circumstances."

"Is it still the usual situation?" Jian Xuezhou looked at her.

Bi Guo shook his head vigorously: "No, I'll think of a way..."

"Don't think about it." Jian Xue said thoughtfully, "I will contact the person on the ID card and let you know the result."

Bi Guo was stunned: "Sister, how do you contact me?"

Jian Xuezhou didn't answer her question, and said, "I'm going to Beishi early tomorrow morning, do you want to go together?"

"Yes!" Bi Guo replied quickly without stopping this time.
