Because there was still one day left until the sports meet ended, Xiaoji stayed at home for three consecutive days and waited for a full three days.
For the past three days, she has never left her door and has been staying in her parents' room, imagining that they will appear out of thin air in the next moment. Then, the whole family will sit together, laughing and joking, and spend the special day when she turns sixteen with her.
But until they were about to leave for school, the old monsters that had become spirits did not appear. Xiao Ji was so angry that her teeth itched, and she followed their example by leaving a letter full of threats.
Xiaoji is very angry, and the consequences are serious. I have decided not to go home for the weekend next week. If you still remember my birthday, just stay at home and reflect on it during those days, and let you also taste the feeling of missing me!
That's really too much. Who goes there for almost a month? Even if they are busy, they should take some time to come back and take a look. Don't they have something called a Moonlight Box that can be used to come back with a whoosh? Do they really know that they are not yet sixteen years old and are considered underage children?
Xiaoji deliberately used anger to divert her worries. Sometimes she really hated being too young to come and go freely like her parents. However, when she thought about the sixteen years old that were getting closer and closer to her, she felt a little uneasy, always feeling that something was going to change.
In a daze, she returned to school and pushed open the door. No one had come back from the dormitory yet. Little Ji put down her backpack, took out a book, and lay down on the bed to read.
I don't know how long it took before I heard footsteps coming towards me. Then someone pushed open the door and came in. Xiao Ji looked up and realized it was Fei Zhu.
Fei Zhu was carrying a huge bag as usual, and without hesitation, she knew that it was full of newly released books. At this moment, she was panting and standing at the door holding her backpack, climbing several floors. Her feet and stomach were trembling.
You're here so early, are you reading a book
If there's nothing at home today, I'll come first. Let me help you take off your bag first
Fei Zhu looked like she could run out of breath at any moment, and Xiao Ji couldn't bear it. She jumped off the bed and helped her take the bag, then threw it onto her bed like a sandbag.
This bag should weigh no less than thirty pounds, aren't you tired carrying it home
Xiao Ji threw her bag too hard and it fell into some positions against the wall, which Fei Zhu couldn't reach. She had to climb onto the bed and shyly smiled at her, "It's not tiring, just get used to it, haha
habit? Can I get used to it too?
Watching her finally regain her calm breathing, Xiaoji slowly turned her gaze to her thick pile of textbooks. In addition to those issued by the school, there seemed to be many tutoring books in her bag, some of which had already been flipped to the back, as can be seen from the traces of their use.
She really puts a lot of effort into reading.
Turning around, Xiaoji glanced lightly at the new textbook that she had been using as a pastime. Her book was also a bit old, but it was because she had fallen asleep while reading and couldn't compare to her at all.
After finishing her textbooks, Fei Zhu crawled out of bed. When Xiao Ji saw her taking a lunch box out to eat alone, she asked strangely, "Where is Cui Zizhi? Why hasn't she come yet
She's not coming. She said there's something at home today and she can only come to school tomorrow
What's up? What about Bohe? She's not coming today either
Bohe? "Fei Zhu took a few steps back and stared at Xiao Ji," Ah, I almost forgot you went home on Friday. Something big happened that day, you must not know
Friday? That's the day of the Feizhu competition? What's going on?
Xiaoji remained silent. She thought about the relationship between Da Dao and Bohe, and her brow immediately furrowed. "Did something happen to Bohe
This has nothing to do with Bohe, it was Mu Dongyang who had an accident
Mu Dongyang? "Not just Bohe, she didn't want any accidents to happen to her roommates." What happened to him
He fell and injured himself during the competition, while doing pole vaulting. The pole suddenly broke at high altitude, which scared many people out at the time
Broken? Then he just... "If he really falls from mid air, unless the angle is good and falls onto the protective pad, the consequences are really serious.
Fortunately, his injuries were not serious. When he fell, he used the remaining half of the pole to support himself, so only his foot was injured. "Fei Zhu showed a frightened expression and continued to talk about what happened that day.
That pole is usually kept in the equipment room because only Mu Dongyang has learned pole vaulting, so he takes it out to use. After the pole broke, a teacher went to see the broken pole, and the cross-section on it was flat. It didn't seem like an accident, but rather like someone did it maliciously
Equipment room? A pole? Human made? Three unrelated things kept alternating in Xiao Ji's mind, and her memory suddenly returned to the situation in the equipment room last week. The person hiding behind the door not only broke in there, but also did such a shameful thing. That shot put was really too cheap for that guy. If they had known, they should have called everyone up.
Regret flashed in her heart, and Xiaoji quickly regained her composure. Now that Mu Dongyang had been injured, regretting it was useless. The most important thing now was to figure out what had happened to Bohe.
Why didn't Bohe come
Fei Zhu couldn't get to the point for a long time, so Xiao Ji became anxious and interrupted her. Unexpectedly, after finishing speaking, Fei Zhu stared at her like she saw a monster, her eyes wide and round.
Can't you tell
Can't you see anything? "Did Bohe get sick after the sports meeting because of his poor health?
It's her relationship with Mu Dongyang
Relationship, relationship, it doesn't seem like much, by the way, they seem to be closer than ordinary classmates!
At the thought of Bohe angrily saying that he wanted to settle accounts with Mu Dongyang, Xiaoji suddenly felt a sudden realization. However, judging from the personalities of these two people, it was really difficult for them to connect.
Fei Zhu was originally a bit anxious, but when she saw Xiao Ji's mouth suddenly open wide, she knew she might have thought of it.
Usually, Zizhi and I feel like there's something about them. You didn't see it that day. When Mu Dongyang fell, Bohe was so scared that he called a car and followed him to the hospital. We only called back once halfway and said he couldn't come to school for the time being
I see, then it's just the two of us tonight. "Xiaoji felt like she had missed out on many things over the weekend, without the lively Bohe and talkative Cui Zizhi, she and Fei Zhu lacked some common language.
common language? By the way, they can talk about their studies, maybe this way we can understand why she sleepwalks.
I heard that a survey will be held in a week. How are you preparing
Preparing? "Speaking of the exam in a week, Fei Zhu suddenly closed the door and took a bowl of noodles to soak in." I haven't prepared much, time is too tight, it's military training and sports meet
But your books
The book was brought home for show, I never had a chance to read it
Is that so? Do we need to bring that much back to make it look like it? Xiaoji must have seen annotations on those books just now, which cannot be found in books she hasn't read before. But why doesn't she want to be honest?
Fei Zhu's noodles were soaked, and she waved her chopsticks at Xiao Ji, silently eating the noodles. She looks delicious when eating noodles, but she doesn't satisfy her cravings at all. The noodles are picked up one by one by her and slowly stuffed into her mouth.
She didn't say anything during the entire process of eating noodles. Little Ji suspected that it was because of her overeating that she deliberately ate so slowly, so she tried to avoid the topic as much as possible. Half an hour later, Fei Zhu's noodles were finally eaten.
As if to prove that she really hadn't read a book, Fei Zhu crawled into bed early at night before the lights went out, turned over and there was no sound.
Xiaoji had been weighing a heavy stone on her heart because of the afternoon incident, and it took her a long time to fall asleep. However, when she slept until late at night, she was startled awake by a strange feeling.
She was really scared awake. She felt like she was trapped under the mountain and couldn't get out. There were many people passing by, but no one could see her. Finally, she met someone who found her, but that person stood in the distance watching her and refused to come over no matter how much she shouted.
In such a hurry, she also woke up and realized that she was not under any big mountain, but lying on the bed in the dormitory, with a book pressed against her chest and a hand pressed on the book.
Hands? Her hands are still on both sides of her body, who are these extra hands? With a bad feeling in her heart, Xiaoji turned her head and looked towards the bedside.
A person suddenly appeared on the edge of the bed, with only one head exposed due to their short stature. Facing that expressionless face, Xiaoji's sweat pores stood on end.
She actually sleepwalked again, and this time she even dreamed of herself! Feeling that the situation was getting more and more serious, Xiaoji sat up and stared at Feizhu.
There was no one else in the room, and the two of them were deadlocked for a long time. In the end, Xiaoji gave up. Facing a sleepwalker not only requires courage, but also perseverance. She has now determined that she lacks both courage and perseverance.
Don't waste any more time with her, let's make a quick decision.
Forcefully pulling her book out of Fei Zhu's hand, Xiao Ji let out a sigh and raised her knife, accurately chopping it down.
All the movements were like flowing clouds and water, completed in one go. Xiao Ji's hand knife was far more agile and powerful than Cui Zizhi's. Fei Zhu fell down painlessly and fell into a deep sleep in the blink of an eye.
