Apprentice Succubus Hunting Notes

Josh took a quick look and found that Sangsang's apartment was a small one-bedroom and one living room. There were many small gadgets in the living room, such as wooden music boxes, classical clocks, small red mailboxes, and various A variety of large and small, novelty and interesting dolls.

Although there are many things, they are all neatly arranged. The whole room is not messy, but has a strange and lovely feeling.

Han Tian also looked around, and said: "These decorations are all bought by you yourself, and you can't buy them online."

When mentioning these little things, Sangsang, who had always been out of her mind, suddenly regained some energy and her eyes brightened.

She touched a small doll by her hand and said, "Yes, I found them one by one in second-hand markets and flea markets. Look at this little owl, looking at people with its head tilted, what a funny expression! When I first saw it, I was like, wow, I'm going to put this behind the bar in the future—”

Suddenly, the light in her eyes went out.

She withdrew her hand from the owl doll, retracted it into the pocket of the sweater, lowered her head and said, "—I, I'll make tea for you."

Han Tian said in a deep voice: "No need. Where do you want to put this owl on the bar? Angel's Feather?"

Sangsang trembled, her voice was as low as a mosquito: "No... I think, I want to put it in the cafe I opened... It doesn't have to be too big, it's open by the sea..."

Han Tian's voice was faint: "Huh? A cafe by the sea? Standing on a cliff, with gray-blue sea water outside the window, you can see seagulls flying by from time to time?"

Sangsang froze, staring blankly ahead.

Josh couldn't help but said, "Then why did you suddenly resign? It's because you've already saved enough money and are ready to go back and open your own store?"

Sangsang raised her head abruptly, her eyes fell on the rows of meticulously wiped decorations, her eye circles became more and more red, and she finally shed tears: "I...I...I won't open the shop anymore...he said, I'm at home Just wait, it's enough for him to support me...he doesn't agree with me opening a shop..."

The more Sangsang spoke, the more sad she became, and finally covered her face, knelt down on the ground and sobbed.

Josh, who had never seen an adult human crying in front of him, suddenly became flustered, scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks and didn't know what to do, so he squatted down, imitating Han Tian's appearance of comforting himself, and gently patted Sangsang's shoulder, mouth Li said softly: "Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry..."

Han Tian's complexion was a bit dark, and he couldn't say anything. He looked around, found the refrigerator, took out ice cubes, wrapped them in a towel, made a simple ice pack, squatted beside Josh calmly, and passed the ice pack over and said: "Put it on your face."

Sangsang took the ice pack, choked up and said I was causing you trouble, stood up and moved to the small sofa in the living room.

Han Tian handed over another box of tissues, and said, "The 'he' you mentioned is your boyfriend? Is he the one who asked you to resign?"

Sangsang didn't answer, only tears kept falling.

Josh frowned and asked, "Zheng Tong? Why?! Sangsang, didn't you work here because you like the cafe? Why didn't he let you open a shop or work?!"

Sangsang's chest heaved violently a few times, and finally cried out, saying: "He said, said, I'm here, I just wear skirts and can't get along with you every day, and when I open a store in the future, I'm going to get hooked up with other men even more ——I, I didn't do such a thing! Why did he say that about me!"

While crying, Sangsang covered her face and said, "I explained to him that Josh and I are just colleagues, nothing else, he doesn't believe me at all!... He, he even slapped me I slapped my face and told me to talk back! I...! What did I do wrong...he wants to treat me like this..."

Hearing this, Josh was already angry - he still remembered Zheng Tong's appearance.That gorilla-like man, almost two heads taller than Sangsang, just slapped him down? !Can he do it too? !

He was about to accuse this nonsense man loudly, but Han Tian took his hand and squeezed it, turned his head, and mouthed to him: Calm down.

When Sangsang calmed down somewhat, Han Tian stood beside her, as if wanting to brush away the broken hair on her face, and tapped her forehead lightly with his fingers.

Seeing this action, Josh's heart shivered, and he couldn't help but increase his strength in holding Han Tian's hand.

Sensing the change in the strength of his hand, Han Tian withdrew his other hand and gently stroked the back of Josh's hand a few times.

Josh immediately felt much more comfortable, and at the same time felt that he was simply inexplicable.

Han Tian didn't look back at Josh again, but stated to Sangsang in a steady tone: "You didn't do anything wrong. His abuse of you was because he bullied the weak. It's not your fault. He treated you The slander is because his heart is evil and cannot tolerate any good things, and it is not your fault. His suppression of you is because of his inferiority and cowardice, what does this have to do with you?"

Sangsang, whose forehead was touched by Han Tian, ​​the haze of fear and confusion in his eyes gradually dissipated, and the shrouded agility and brightness gradually returned.

"It's not...my...fault?" She raised her face halfway, repeating these words unconsciously.

Han Tian slid open the screen of her mobile phone, clicked on Sangsang's Weibo, and displayed them one by one in front of her:

Six years ago, she had just been admitted to a university in Shanghai. She was wearing denim shorts and big round glasses, and she made a silly V comparison to the camera. The accompanying text was: Big F, here I come!Please accept my tuning/teaching!

Then, there is an unremarkable cafe, the decoration inside is a bit outdated, and the accompanying words are: There are many places like this in Haicheng, where friends of three or five can listen to music and chat together. I really like this atmosphere!If only there was a cafe like this in my hometown!

Next, there's her standing in Angel's Feather, in her uniform, smiling happily, with the words: How can I work in such a great cafe? !I'm so good!

From now on, it is how she saves money bit by bit, planning step by step, what kind of coffee shop she wants to open in her hometown, with a lot of "ah, I can pull flowers today!" "Hmm! It turns out egg tarts can be baked like this!" on Weibo.

All of this came to an abrupt end a month ago.

"Sangsang, what do you really want to do? Do you want to realize your wish and stick to your dream, or do you just want to be imprisoned by a poor wretch and live on his charity, all the time? Are you living in the shadow of being abandoned and bullied by him, spending the rest of your life in fear?" Han Tian's voice was not loud, but his voice was exceptionally clear, and every word and every word was as cold as ice, making people sober.

The last bit of confusion on Sangsang's face disappeared.

As if she just woke up from a dream, she looked at Josh and Han Tian, ​​and suddenly held her cheeks and shouted: "Oh, really, I haven't put on makeup yet! Why did you let you in!"

After speaking, she jumped up from the sofa, rushed into the bedroom, and closed the door with a "bang".

Josh looked at Han Tian in bewilderment: "Uh? What is she? Why did you suddenly start talking about makeup or not?"

Han Tian smiled: "She's fine. She's already thought it through."

"Huh?" Josh still didn't understand, "But she didn't answer the question you just asked her?"

"There's no need to answer." Han Tian looked at Josh, who was full of question marks on his head, with a smile in his eyes: "Sometimes, to see clearly a person's true thoughts is not what he said, but how he did it. "

Josh seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand.

"When Sangsang started to choose to focus on herself instead of worrying about what to do to satisfy her boyfriend—no, ex-boyfriend—she had already figured it out." Han Tian continued to explain.

"Oh..." Josh finally understood, with a light of admiration in his eyes: "That's great, I'm still thinking, Sangsang was bullied so badly by that scumbag, how can I teach him a lesson , to make him leave Sangsang!"

Han Tian lowered his eyes and asked casually, "A lesson? How do you want to teach me a lesson?"

Josh was stunned, giggled twice, scratched his head and said, "Also... there is no lesson not to be taught. Probably just like you, persuading the other party politely and peacefully, right?"

As soon as the voice fell, the bedroom door opened.

Sangsang changed into a royal blue velvet sports suit, pinned her short hair with a headband of the same color, carefully covered up the red marks on her face, and looked more energetic.

She stuck out her tongue at Josh: "Sorry, boss, can I withdraw my resignation application?"

Josh nodded seriously: "Of course! I never approved it!"

Looking at Josh's serious "boss" appearance, the corners of Han Tian's lips raised slightly, and a little imperceptible smile appeared in his eyes.

After saying a few more words, Han Tian signaled to Josh—you can go, let Sangsang be quiet for a while.

The two stood in the dark corridor, pressed the elevator, and waited for several minutes, but the elevator did not come up.

"Take the stairs?" Josh poked his head into the stairwell and suggested.

Han Tian looked at the dark corridor, and looked at Josh with a half-smile: "It's so dark..."

Josh blinked: "Are you afraid of the dark?"

Han Tian didn't answer.

Josh suddenly came alive, grabbed Han Tian's hand, and straightened his chest: "I'm not afraid of the dark! I'll take you!"

Walking from the 26th floor to the 1st floor is a long enough way.

Moreover, along the way, almost all voice-activated lights are broken.The long and dark road seems to have a hypnotic effect, making people unable to help telling their secrets and revealing everything.

Josh held the flashlight of his mobile phone in one hand as illumination, and led Han Tian in the other hand, stepping down step by step, always feeling that his heart was full of words, and he wanted to pour them all out.

However, he didn't know where to start.

Han Tian was also silent, holding Josh's hand, followed behind, and walked down slowly.

"actually……"

"you……"

The two opened their mouths at the same time, and stopped at the same time.

"Actually what?" Han Tian asked first.

"No, no, it's nothing..." Josh panicked, "You talk first? I don't have anything important."

Han Tian was silent for nearly half a minute before slowly saying: "Have you thought about what to eat next?"

That's it?

Josh was disappointed for a while.

However, what did I expect Han Tian to say?

He laughed dryly: "It's all right."

Han Tian was behind him, looking at the light on the phone, and asked in a low voice: "What about you? What do you want to say?"

Josh swallowed all the words that came to his lips, and finally choked out the most insignificant sentence: "Actually, that, I bought Angel's Feather before, that's why Sangsang called me the boss."

Han Tian only let out an "oh", without any comment or surprise.

The corridor that was originally thought to be endless has finally come to an end.

Pushing open the heavy fire door, Josh sneezed in the dust of the parking lot.

Han Tian let go of his hand and hugged his shoulder: "Cold?"

Josh's body trembled, and he shook his head quickly: "No, no, it's not cold...Huh?"

Right in front of them, under the dim light, a dark blue Buick parked impressively.

Although this kind of car is very common, Josh always felt that it was too coincidental for this car to appear at this time and at this place.

He took a few steps forward, pretending to help Han Tian find a car, and walked around the Buick—as expected, there was a faint fishy smell, mixed with a disgusting stench.

"It's that trash scum who came to the door! He wants to do something to Sangsang again!" Josh's heart tightened, and he was about to tell Han Tian, ​​but he thought: Han Tian can only reason with people, and the trash man is so violent. What if we fight with Han Tian?

Han Tian's slender and flexible fingers are for holding a scalpel—and cooking for me by the way—not for fighting!

Thinking of this, Josh turned his head and said seriously: "Ah, I left something at Sangsang's house just now! I'll go up and get it myself, and you wait for me in the car! You must wait for me well!"

After finishing speaking, Josh rushed back to the elevator room and jumped into the elevator that happened to stop there.
