But in the scorching heat, I can still clearly see her ice-like stern face.Her lips moved slightly, but I heard nothing.

What did you say?I screamed at the increasingly blurred shadow.

"What did you say--"

However, I could hear the echo of only myself changing the tune.Something seemed to be getting thinner and thinner in the air, and the moment I felt like I was about to lose my grip, I stretched out my hand suddenly.Then I saw three incandescent lamps dangling above my head and gradually stacked into one, and my heart felt relieved. Maybe all the bad feelings in the dream were caused by the uncomfortable shaking of this annoying light bulb.

However, I still feel that something is not quite right.

"Hui Xin, how do you feel?" A familiar voice asked me with concern, and I looked around.His gaze was fixed on the haggard-looking mother.

"Mom—" Her throat felt as if a pot of hot oil had just been poured into it, and it was so painful that she couldn't even utter a word.

"Be careful, stop talking." My mother brought a glass of water, but it wasn't for drinking. She took a cotton swab from the bedside table and rubbed it on my lips. "The doctor said that your throat is a little burnt because the temperature of the fire site is too high. Don't worry, it will be fine in a few days."

Fire scene?high temperature?Wasn't that a dream?In an instant, the skin all over his body was taut.I didn't care about the pain, so I hurriedly asked:

"Where's Lu...Qianyu?"

"..."

"Xiao Zhong...someone named Xiao Zhong?"

"Don't worry, don't talk so much, are you talking about the person who rescued you? That person shouldn't be injured too badly, and when you recover... Hey, Huixin—"

"Where, where?" I sat up swaying, many details of the dream began to become clear now, I began to feel afraid, afraid of the most vague part of that dream, afraid of those entangled screams And the suffocating pull is real and not just a dream that can be dissipated when you wake up.

I walked slowly while leaning on the old and yellowed walls, pushed open every door, and saw a few strange faces who were either awake or sleeping.

"What exactly are you looking for?"

Yeah, what am I looking for?The moment of sobriety made me sit down on the ground slumped, Hui Xin, look around, what kind of identity is Miss Lu, if she is injured, how can she be treated here?The next second I suddenly became happy again, does that mean...it means that she may be fine!

"Let's go back, shall we? You can't get out of bed with your current body. Huixin, are you obedient?" The mother who followed all the way stepped forward to support my weak body, and I nodded against the wall with difficulty. I can't go any further.

Weakness, fatigue, and illness can also bring great benefits when viewed from another angle. For example, when they work together, they can easily block my various restless thoughts.Then you will become more and more firm in your guess in an unclear mood, and tend to make the various possibilities that happen later converge as much as possible.

Why hasn't she come to see me in the hospital for the past three days?Maybe you are still angry with me because of Wang Hui.

It's been a week, and I can be discharged from the hospital, but Miss Lu still doesn't see anyone, she's really angry.

"Will that classmate of yours really come to pick you up and leave the hospital?" My mother who didn't know why had been standing with me at the hospital gate for an hour, but I couldn't tell her that I just wanted to wait and see. Make an appointment, and she didn't show up even once during my hospital stay.

"Mom, you go home first, I want to go to a place first."

"But……"

"It'll be fine, I'll just go to my classmate's house to take a look." Because if I don't confirm some things, I can't even lie to myself.

Taking a taxi to the villa where Lu Qianyu lived, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked up to the gate of the courtyard, with a shiny sign pinned to the left side of his chest.He saw that I was about to go in when I was familiar with the road, smiled and nodded and asked: "Hello, are you here to see this property?"

"What, what do you mean?"

The smile on the man's face froze, and he looked at me carefully from head to toe. "You didn't come to see the house? Then how did you get in?"

"I, my classmates live here."

"Little girl, I think you made a mistake. This house was put up for sale a week ago...Hey-I said, why are you still going in...I'm going to call security for you like this..."

Listed for sale?How can it be?

Without even thinking about it, I ran to the door and pushed it vigorously; the empty hall, neat stairs, bright crystal chandeliers... There are even some used furniture placed in it, but, it is Something is wrong.

"Lu Qianyu—Uncle Fifth—"

Much like that dream, the entire space is filled with only echoes, my own.

"Lu Qianyu——can you come out? This is not fun at all, it's really not good at all."

"Hello, are you the owner here?" A young man in a security uniform asked cautiously.

I slowly lifted my head nestled between my knees and shook it.

"You... are you okay?" The security guard was a little surprised when he saw the tears on my face. "Do you need my help?"

"Can you tell me where Lu Qianyu is?"

"Uh... you mean the original owners who lived here? Don't you have their contact information?"

"Yes, but the phone has been disconnected, not just her. Uncle Wu, Wang Hui, I even called the policeman, and I call every day..."

I suddenly remembered the last scene in Suiyuan, Lu Qianyu ordered Xiao Zhong to send me out safely no matter what.By the way, I haven't contacted Xiaozhong since he was hospitalized until now.

The security guard was supposed to be called by the man I met when I entered the door to deal with me, an intruder, but seeing my startled look, I really didn't dare to expel me in a vicious voice.Instead, he accompanied me and said a few words with me in a good voice, and then saw that I jumped up and was about to leave, and volunteered to send me all the way to the gate of the community.Although he mentioned it quite seriously several times during the period, as the security personnel of this community, he must not disclose the owner's information at will.But maybe seeing how pitiful I was crying, I still let me know some relevant information intentionally or unintentionally.

For example, the man I met when I entered the door just now is an intermediary who is in charge of buying and selling in this community.This villa had indeed been put on the market a week ago, and the strange thing was that most of the furniture in the room was emptied by a group of people one night a week ago.From evacuating the furniture to putting it on the market to today, the security guy said with confidence that the owner of the house never showed up once.

Ah……

If there is no mistake, the night the security guard said happened to be the night we went to Suiyuan.

My mother saw that I was typing, and asked lightly: Your two-month-old article is still not finished?

Then... and then I wrote a new article.
