Li Manshui didn't think about it any more, he rushed up and opened the curtains with one stride, and the light instantly filled the room.

The room was the same as last night, nothing was added, nothing was missing, and the sachet was well placed by the bedside.

Li Manshui seemed to have collapsed, and his whole body went limp.

The birds chirping outside the window and the sound of young boys playing basketball downstairs made her wonder whether what happened last night was real or a dream.

Li Manshui stared straight at the door, still a little uneasy in his heart, did the things behind the door really leave?Or are you waiting for it to be delivered to your door?During the day, strange things should not appear.But Li Slowshui still didn't dare to gamble on it. To be on the safe side, she took out her phone and prepared to send a message to Xu Jian.

But since the phone turned off automatically when it ran out of power last night, it hasn't been charged, and it can't even be turned on, let alone send messages.

"Damn it!" Li Manshui was anxious and angry at this time, and quickly went to get the charger to plug it in for charging. As soon as the phone was turned on, she immediately sent a message to Xu Jian for help.

"Sister Jian, save me!! Something strange appeared in my house last night!"

Xu Jian replied quickly: "Where is it? I'll go there now."

Li Manshui sent his home address, lying on the bay window and staring downstairs, afraid that he might not see Xu Jian when he appeared.

After about 10 minutes, a familiar figure appeared downstairs.

"Xu Jian!" Li Manshui quickly stopped her, "I'll throw you the key, you come up and open the door!"

Xu Jian downstairs nodded.

"Next!" Li Manshui looked at the location and threw the key out. Xu Jian took two steps back, caught the key, waved his hand, and walked into the residential building in front of him.

Not long after, there was the sound of a key being inserted into the lock and turning, and the door opened.

"Xu scissors, scissors, scissors!!" Li Manshui rushed to the door of the room and shouted.

Xu Jian closed the door, took two steps forward, tried to identify the source of the voice, and asked, "Are you in the room at the end of the corridor?"

"That's right!! The last room on the left."

The footsteps outside were getting closer and closer, and finally stopped at the door of Li Manshui's room. Xu Jian raised his hand and knocked on the door, asking, "Li Manshui?"

After Li Manshui heard Xu Jian's voice outside the door, he quickly opened the door, and when he saw Xu Jian standing in front of him, he was so excited that he was about to cry.

Just about to pounce on him for comfort, Xu Jian said, "Your body...is so fishy."

Li Manshui was a little strange: "Fish?"

She sniffed it left and right, and finally knew the source of the smell. Her hands smelled fishy. Although it wasn't very strong, it still made people uncomfortable.

"Ah, I caught fish last night, maybe it smelled like fish and I didn't wash it clean."

Xu Jian frowned, and asked in doubt: "Is that so... But your smell doesn't seem like fish, it's more like... blood?"

Li Manshui was stunned. She suddenly remembered that when she caught fish last night, because she just woke up and didn't wear glasses, she only remembered that she caught a red carp, but now that she thought about it carefully, she seemed not very sure. , it’s red, yes, but is it really a fish?After having this idea, Li Manshui himself began to figure out what he was catching last night.

"Li Manshui?" Seeing her in a daze, Xu Jian snapped his fingers.

Li Manshui came back to his senses, looked at Xu Jian and said, "Ah, by the way, there is a fish tank in that living room, have you seen it?"

"Fish tank? I really didn't notice this, what's wrong?"

Li Manshui was kind of praying: "Xu Jian, you can accompany me to the fish tank in the living room to have a look."

Seeing that her face turned pale, Xu Jian gently supported her, and said, "Okay, tell me what's wrong by the way."

Li Manshui was a little reluctant to recall what happened last night, but he still gave an overview.With just a few words, the two of them were already standing in front of the fish tank.

Li Manshui leaned close to the fish tank and counted carefully: "One, two, three..." Five fish, one is not a lot.

"I was wrong..."

"Li Manshui, what are you mumbling about?" Xu Jian patted her and continued, "You said that something strange entered your house last night, so you can probably guess what it is? Think about whether any strange things have happened around you recently."

Li Manshui scratched his hair and tried to think about it: "Strange things? No, I'm basically at home every day during the holidays, and I don't even go out. How can I encounter strange things."

Xu Jian squinted at the bright red koi in the fish tank, was silent for a long time, and said, "Then why don't you see what it is tonight?"

"??????"

Li Manshui turned his head and stared at Xu Jian incredulously, with an expression of "Are you kidding me?".

Xu Jian said: "You don't need to look at me like this, there is no way out now, how do you ask me to help you, there must be a reason for what happened, and now we can't find the reason, so the matter will naturally be difficult to settle."

Li Manshui was a little annoyed, and he unconsciously tinged with anger when he spoke: "Then you let me experience it again? That's what happened to Wang Shili last time!"

Xu Jian corrected her kindly: "His name is Wang Mingli."

"I don't care what his name is, anyway, I want to do this again myself, no! Do it!"

Xu Jian sighed: "I didn't say to let you be alone, don't worry, I will accompany you tonight. I just happen to be a little curious about what that thing is."

Thinking about it now, Li Manshui still felt a little nervous: "Aren't you afraid of that thing?"

Xu Jian replied: "Don't do anything wrong, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door."

I didn't do anything wrong, so why did I just meet him? ? ? ?Of course, Li Manshui didn't say this, but just shouted silently in his heart.

Xu Jian patted Li Manshui on the shoulder: "I'm going out to buy some change of clothes, I'll stay with you tonight." After speaking, he turned and prepared to go out.

Li Manshui hurriedly caught up with her: "Hey wait a minute, I'll go too! I'll go change clothes, wait for me to get off! It will be ready soon."

After buying clothes with Xu Jian, the two stopped by to have a meal outside, and then went shopping to pass the time.When passing a silverware store,

Xu Jian stopped in his tracks: "Let's go inside and have a look."

The clerk is very enthusiastic, and when he sees someone coming in, he immediately greets him, and he can't do more than talk about sales.

Xu Jian looked at all the counters, and finally pointed to a piece of silver jewelry and said, "This, wrap it for me."

Li Slowshui looked in the direction of Xu Jian's finger. It was a very beautiful silver bracelet, connected by exquisite hollow balls. The pattern engraved on it was... Li Slowshui squinted his eyes hard, what he wanted to see To be more clear, but the clerk's speed was too fast, before she could see clearly, he wrapped it neatly and led Xu Jian to pay the bill.

After paying the bill, Xu Jian took the bag with the silver jewelry and walked to Li Manshui, and glanced at the sky outside, it was dark and cloudy, it was going to rain.

Xu Jian said: "Go back, it's going to rain."

Li Manshui nodded, and asked again: "But I haven't eaten dinner yet, my house only has instant noodles, do you want to eat?"

Xu Jian said lightly: "I eat takeaway, you eat instant noodles."

Li Manshui said with a smile: "I know you just say it, and you will definitely take me to eat."

When Xu Jian heard this, he just raised his eyebrows and didn't answer, which was regarded as acquiescing.

Perhaps it was because of the hot weather that he lost his appetite, those takeaways Xu Jian just ate a few casual bites and stopped.She put down her chopsticks and sat on a chair on the balcony looking at the gray sky outside in a daze, leaving Li Manshui to eat hard at the dining table alone.

"Li Manshui." Xu Jian suddenly called her.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Li Manshui looked up at Xu Jian.

Xu Jian sat on the chair with his back to her, and continued: "Did you forget something?" Her tone was calm, even cold.

"What...?" Li Manshui swallowed, thinking that Xu Jian wanted to tell her about knocking on the door.

Xu Jian raised his head slightly, pointed out the window with his chin: "Look, it's raining."

Li Manshui glanced out the window, and it started to rain outside at some point, and it tended to rain more and more.

"Yeah, I didn't pay attention. It looks like there will be a heavy rain tonight, but what's the matter with the rain? Rain is very common in summer?"

After hearing her answer, Xu Jian looked back at her helplessly and said, "You haven't confiscated your clothes yet."

"..."

In the next second, Li Slowwater rushed out to collect his clothes.

When it was completely dark, the rain had already fallen quite heavily, as if it could wash away all traces.

Xu Jian stood in Li Manshui's room, leaned close to the window, and watched everything outside quietly.

"Xu Jian, what are you looking at?" Li Manshui just entered the room, and what he saw was Xu Jian who was about to stick to the window.Xu Jian turned around to call her over, took out the silver bracelet he just bought today, and put it on her while telling her: "Put this bracelet on tonight, remember not to take it off."

Li Manshui responded, and raised his hand to carefully observe the carvings on this string of silver bracelets. It was very beautiful, but he didn't recognize the carvings on it.She asked Xu Jian: "Then what will happen if I pick it?"

Xu Jian glared at her upon hearing this, and scolded, "Do you really want to die?"

"No, no, I'm just kidding, my life matters."

Xu Jian snorted, and pushed Li Manshui: "Go to sleep."

Li Manshui hesitated, and asked her, "What about you?"

"Me? I'll keep watch at night. You can sleep with that thing before it can come out." Xu Jian pretended to be sinister and smiled.

Li Manshui rolled his eyes, not afraid of her like this, climbed into bed, grabbed the quilt and covered himself, ready to sleep.

Xu Jian also climbed onto the bed and sat down next to her, stretched his waist, then folded his arms, leaned against the head of the bed, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Li Manshui fell into a drowsy sleep, and suddenly felt someone pushing her, and when she opened her eyes, it was Xu Jian.

She was just about to ask what's the matter, but she saw Xu Jian made a silent gesture, and pointed to the door again.

Li Manshui quickly calmed down, and listened carefully, the same voice as last night came from a distance outside the door.
