The school grass boyfriend has a big problem

In the afternoon, Ji Nian and Lu Xi watched a circus performance in the theater, and the whole process took only half an hour.

The content of the performance cannot be said to be very exciting, but because there are many children, the atmosphere is very lively.

After following the flow of people, the two teenagers found an open-air coffee shop across the street, picked up a random table and sat down.

When ordering food, Ji Nian looked up inadvertently, and noticed that among the crowd who had just left, many children were holding hydrogen balloons in their hands.

Hydrogen balloons come in a variety of shapes, most of which are Disney cartoon characters, but the style of painting looks like a pirated version.

It turned out that there was a middle-aged uncle at the entrance of the theater, who was rushing to do business while the show was over.

The back seat of the old-fashioned bicycle next to the uncle is full of balloons. From a distance, it looks like a cloud of gaudy clouds.

On the side, Lu Xi was still looking at the menu.

Ji Nian bowed his body, and said to Lu Xi in a low voice, "Leave for a while, come back right away."

Lu Xi didn't raise her head: "Oh."

He turned the menu over and over again, and all he saw was coffee and milk tea, but he couldn't find Sprite.

While waiting for the meal, Lu Xi leaned on the back of the chair and took out his mobile phone to play match [-] games.

Because there is no signal on the island, even text messages cannot be sent, so the mobile phone is basically used to play stand-alone games.

Not long after, Ji Nian really came back.

Lu Xi looked up, but her expression was silent for a while.

"........."

I saw Ji Nian holding a hydrogen balloon in his hand, in the shape of a little yellow duck, yellow and bright.

Lu Xi looked up, and the little yellow duck was floating in the air.

Lu Xi shifted his gaze to Ji Nian, and asked expressionlessly, "How old are you?"

"Let me ask." Ji Nian pretended not to know, grabbed the little yellow duck and pulled it down, and said face to face, "Duck, how old are you~"

"..." Lu Xi raised her eyelids, said with a bored expression, "How old are you? Buy this."

Ji Nian smiled, let go, and the little yellow duck flew into the air again.

Then, Ji Nian lifted one trouser leg, knelt down on one knee beside Lu Xi's seat, and tied the leash around Lu Xi's wrist.

Lu Xi half-raised her hand, shook it uncomfortably, looked at Ji Nian, and asked inexplicably, "What are you doing?"

Ji Nian smiled, and in an instant, his eyebrows and eyes were as gentle as the first snow that fell in winter, and said: "Other children have this... My little princess also has it..." He loosened the loose rope ring, adjusted his position, and looked up. Looking at Lu Xi, "Don't say I don't spoil you."

"..."

Lu Xi's heart thumped twice, and her face also slowly heated up, the spreading crimson color was more beautiful than blush.

Ji Nian kept his posture unchanged and looked at Lu Xi for a while, even though his heart was surging and he really wanted to kiss Lu Xi at this moment, in the end he just swipe the inside of Lu Xi's wrist with his fingertips.

Ji Nian got up, returned to the side seat and sat down, pretending nothing happened, and continued to watch the theater across the street.

Soon, the waiter brought drinks for two people.

Ji Nian poked the orange juice with a straw, took a sip, and said in a calm tone: "There were two victims in July last year, and one of the girls was the magician's performance assistant, but after that incident, she retreated behind the scenes... …This acrobatic troupe only comes to the island during the peak tourist season, twice a year, which means that the girl is not an islander.”

Lu Xi said: "What do you mean, that man's target is not limited to girls living on the island?"

"He is constantly increasing the risk factor." Ji Nian said, "The safest thing is to attack the girls on the island, followed by the girls who come here to work here from time to time. They all have direct interests in the island. It's inconvenient to say anything...Since he has succeeded in the previous few times, he will definitely increase his confidence and feel proud, so this time he will change to a more dangerous group and choose targets from it..."

Lu Xi understood immediately, and said, "Tourist?"

Chronicle nods.

Lu Xi was skeptical about the plan before, thinking that since he was not a resident of the island, he should not be included in the scope of rapists, but after analyzing the records, Lu Xi felt that their plan might succeed.

"How to determine the scope?" Lu Xi asked.

Ji Nian dipped his fingertips on the water stains on the wall of the cup, and drew four circles of different sizes on the table, one ring inside another.

"Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the vast majority of criminal suspects will choose to commit crimes regionally." Ji Nian said, "The closer to the place where they live, the more they will be regarded as their comfort zone, because they are familiar with the surrounding environment, which is conducive to controlling the situation. Finding that the wind direction is wrong, I also know where to hide... But as the crime becomes more proficient, the mentality becomes more stable, and the criminal suspect will use his residence as a fixed point, and continue to expand his comfort zone to the outside..."

Lu Xi glanced at the water stains on the table, and still looked at Ji Nian with some puzzlement.

"Just like this guy, since the second time, his crime location has been expanding outward." Ji Nian pointed to the smallest circle, and said, "Every time he comes to the island, he doesn't necessarily stay in the same homestay or hotel, but The residence must be in this area, and there will be frequent activities in this area. If you change places, it means getting familiar with the environment again, and he has no patience or vigilance."

Lu Xi asked: "So I have to go here to seduce people?"

"..." Ji Nian looked at Lu Xi and said sincerely, "Brother, don't use those two words, it will make me feel very green."

Lu Xi: "..."

The two teenagers were talking, at this moment, a young girl's voice came from the side:

"Dad... wants balloons..."

Lu Xi and Ji Nian turned their faces to look at the same time, and saw a little girl in a goose yellow down jacket standing outside the fence of the open-air cafe.

At this time, the little girl was holding her father's trouser legs, hiding behind, looking at the little yellow duck tied around Lu Xi's wrist with red eyes.

That look, both aggrieved and exasperated, made people's hearts melt.

The little girl's father was helpless, took the girl to stand beside him, and said with a smile: "Didn't the uncle who sold the balloons just say that? They are sold out today, and they will only be available tomorrow. Let's buy them early tomorrow, okay?"

"Hmph!" The little girl raised her small fist and hit her father, with her mouth puckered and tears streaming down her face, she said, "I want a balloon! Daddy is bad!"

Seeing that his daughter was about to throw a splash, the man felt a headache, so he quickly picked up the little girl and prepared to take her away by force.

"Balloons!!!" The little girl screamed angrily, kicking her calves wildly.

"Okay, okay, look elsewhere." The man compromised first.

"I want it now!" The little girl didn't buy it, it seemed that she was spoiled by her family.

Seeing that it attracted the attention of many people, the man looked embarrassed, and after inadvertently meeting Lu Xi's eyes, he smiled apologetically, and then glanced at the hydrogen balloon tied to Lu Xi's wrist, and there was some pleading expression in his eyes unconsciously. mean.

"..."

Lu Xi suddenly had the illusion that "if you don't hand over the balloon, you will be a street bully".

Under the gaze of the girl and the girl's father, Lu Xi finally had to take off the balloon.

"Thank you sister!" The little girl laughed through her tears, and was hugged by her father, happily playing with the hydrogen balloon.

"I'm so sorry..." The man smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said politely, "How much? I'll give it to you, it can't be for nothing..."

"Twenty." Lu Xi said concisely.

"Bai...take..." The man shut his mouth suddenly, obviously caught off guard, his expression froze for a moment.

It took him a while to react with an "oh", and quickly took money out of his trousers pocket, saying, "It should be, it should be, thank you."

The father walked away with his daughter in his arms.

Lu Xi returned to his seat.

Ji Nian was propping his cheek with one hand, when he saw Lu Xi come back, he pouted unhappily, and said, "You gave Nian Nian's doting to other girls...Hmph, bad guy."

Lu Xi patted the 20 yuan bill in front of Ji Nian, and said calmly: "Your favorite, keep it well."

"..." Ji Nian glanced at the banknote and immediately understood what was going on.

He put 20 yuan into his pocket, and sighed: "Brother, I thought you were giving it away, but I didn't expect it to be resold...Have you ever thought about the little yellow duck?"

Lu Xi glanced at Ji Nian and said, "What mood?"

Ji Nian speculated, "That duck must be thinking... duck doesn't need it, duck doesn't need it."

Lu Xi: "..."

So cold.

***

After visiting the small town on the north side of the island, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.

Ji Nian and Lu Xi set off to go back.

Back at the place where the winter camp was located, Lu Xi first went to Liu Siyi's residence to change.

Ji Nian went back to prepare the dishes tonight.

Lu Xi walked up the slope to the courtyard where Liu Siyi lived, but saw a person sitting on the threshold of the courtyard with his head in his arms in the twilight.

Hearing footsteps, the man raised his head.

As soon as the two met their eyes, they were a little silent.

That person is Qu Feng.

Lu Xi glanced at the yard and said, "Look for Liu Siyi."

"Haven't come back yet." Qu Feng deviated from his usual arrogance, lowered his head, looking weak.

Lu Xi ignored it and went straight to the inside.

"Don't blame me for not reminding...you'd better not go in." Qu Feng said suddenly.

Lu Xi stopped and looked at Qu Feng, feeling puzzled.

Qu Feng raised his head, wiped his face, and said with great determination, "This house is not clean."

"..."

Lu Xi glanced aside, and thought to himself: Crazy...

He pretended not to hear, and continued to walk towards the yard.

But when passing Qu Feng, Lu Xi glanced inadvertently, and saw a bright red mark on Qu Feng's arm with his sleeves rolled up.

The moment Lu Xi saw that imprint, her heart clicked, and she stopped breathing.

Even in the dim light now, Lu Xi could still tell that it was a bright red doraemon.

It took Lu Xi a long time to recover, and she blinked slowly, as if she understood something.

"Where did you come from?" Lu Xi didn't enter the door anymore, so he leaned against the door frame and looked at Qu Feng.

"What?" Qu Feng frowned, glanced at the person next to him, and then realized that it was the mark on his own hand.

Qu Feng scratched his hair irritably, and finally found someone to confide in, and said, "That's why I called it fucking evil! This house is definitely not clean!"

Lu Xi waited for Qu Feng to continue.

"I worked on the farm in the afternoon, came back to sleep, and then had a dream..." Qu Feng recalled the scene at that time, still a little scared, couldn't stop shaking twice, and said, "Then when I woke up, there were more This damn thing."

Lu Xi kept silent.

Qu Feng was dissatisfied, and said: "My god! You should say a few words, don't stick here like a log, and watch jokes? I can't be the only one who is afraid?"

Qu Feng was worried and frightened all afternoon, and sat at the door all afternoon. He finally met a living person, so he wanted to seek some comfort, listen to human voices, and recover.

But unfortunately, he met Lu Xi.

Lu Xi glanced at Qu Feng, thought for a while, and lowered his eyes.

He couldn't bear the condemnation of his conscience, so he comforted people rarely, saying: "Don't be afraid..."

Qu Feng felt a little better mentally, and let out a muffled "Hum", and finally heard Lu Xi say:

"You're just dying."

"!!!!!!"

Qu Feng almost couldn't catch his breath, and stared at Lu Xi.

"Don't worry too." Lu Xi said, "It's useless to worry, you have to die."

Qu Feng didn't cry when he woke up from the nightmare, but now he really wants to cry.

"Damn it, Lu Xi." Qu Feng said with tears in his eyes and trembling lips, "Can you tell me something about the world?"

Lu Xi lowered her head regretfully, and said lightly, "I'm sorry, it's my fault...but I can't give up the calendar..."

Qu Feng said: "Hey, what do you mean..."

Before Qu Feng finished speaking, Lu Xi stood upright, interrupted him, and said, "Go to my place for dinner later, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Qu Feng: "..."

Are you going to make a decapitated meal for me?
