【213】The Woman in Black
This time it was Xu Qian who had the most serious quarrel with her father, which even reached the point where it could not be ended. At this point, I would like to remind you that the quarrel between them was not just about Zhong Kui, but something else.
Have you ever heard of instigators? This kind of ghost is like air. It is everywhere. It unscrupulously breaks through people's weak psychological defenses, so that they can spy on people's psychological activities and control people's thinking. They will make the invaded people do extraordinary things. Irrational behavior.
Once you encounter such an instigator, just spit a few mouthfuls out of thin air to make sure you feel refreshed instantly and will not act beyond your self-control.
But now Xu Qian didn't know about this. After she had a quarrel with her father, she was determined to leave the hotel. She packed her luggage and grabbed the suitcase, crying, and rushed out of the hotel door regardless of anyone's dissuasion.
The car sent by her father was rejected by her again and again, and the car never appeared again.
Xu Qian dragged the heavy suitcase, which rolled on the ground and made a creaking sound. With tears on her face, she looked around and didn't know where she should go.
The hotel was her temporary shelter. There was no other place to go except there. Seeing the sky getting closer to dusk, her heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.
Thinking of the mother I had never seen before, and the overbearing father, tears of grievance filled her eyes again and flowed down. Tears blocked her eyes. If there were too many tears, they would form a storm, eroding every inch of her skin like a rope. My heart is broken into pieces...
Xu Qian has never seen her mother since she can remember. Her father told her that her mother died in an accident without leaving any bones. This was such a cruel blow. She was like a lonely flower that had gone through wind and rain. There is a big tree to lean on, and I feel hopeless and helpless.
When her father told her this, he showed his cold side. He could ignore her and leave her weak to go back to the mainland to run this gloomy hotel. If his father hadn't been so cold, he would have left her ignorant and ignorant at a young age. At that time, she could have concocted a white lie to at least let her spend the best years of her childhood.
But after hearing what her father told her about her mother, her childhood was no longer happy. When she saw other people's children being cared for by their mothers, she felt jealous and envious at the same time. She once wondered whether her mother would Not dead at all, maybe waiting for her somewhere.
As I walked and thought all the way, an inexplicable emptiness and coldness filled my mind. Unknowingly, I had left the area where the hotel was located. In front of me was a flickering streetlight. I couldn't see the trees swaying in the wind, and I couldn't hear them. When I heard the chirping of birds, I felt as if time had stopped, and everything seemed to be in a dream. The indescribable feeling of fear was the sudden sound of footsteps coming from behind.
No matter what it was, anyway, the front was the Ximen Station entering the city. With this thought, Xu Qian became a little bolder. She stopped and looked back. One meter away from her, there was a woman dressed in black, with her hands in her hands. He was in his pocket, with his head lowered, looking worried.
Seeing that the visitor was a woman, she relaxed her guard and continued to move forward with her suitcase, hoping to get to the station as soon as possible so that she could buy a ticket for the last train and transfer to the airport to return to Hong Kong.
The station is not big, with a waiting room of more than ten square meters and a ticket purchase hall of ten or twenty square meters. Due to the time, there are not many people in it. If you look closely, you can see that almost all of them are old, weak, women and children. There are three ticket booths open. The rest are closed and ticket sales seem to be suspended.
Xu Qian glanced inside the ticket gate and took out her wallet from her pocket. Before she could take out the money, a strong wind came from behind her. The gravity, which she had no time to dodge, suppressed her and prevented her from moving. A hand reached out from behind. He grabbed her wallet, "Hey~~~~" she exclaimed... Before she could shout out, the person who grabbed her wallet had already rushed to the door with no time to catch him.
The conductor at the ticket gate and those in the waiting room acted as if they had not seen him. Apart from stamping her feet anxiously, she could only watch the man disappear at the door in an instant.
"It's over~ It's over," Xu Qian was in a daze and said with a bitter look on her face. It was her only property. If she lost it, she would be unable to move forward. How could she return to Hong Kong? Just when she was at a loss, a petite figure flashed in from the ticket hall. .
Several people in the ticket hall were attracted by the woman dressed in black who walked in. She grabbed a man by the collar around his neck and strode towards Xu Qian.
"He robbed you of your money," the woman looked delicate, but her voice was unambiguous and as sweet as a silver bell.
"Yes~yes," Xu Qian seemed to have no other way to express her gratitude at this moment. She nodded her head, stretched out her hand to take the wallet handed to her, counted the money in the wallet seriously, and then raised her head. He looked at the other person and said, "Thank you, thank you so much." As he said this, he took out a ten-dollar bill from his wallet and prepared to give it to this womanly man as a reward of thanks.
"No, I'm not here for your money," the woman in black said with an indifferent expression and an indifferent tone.
"That,"
"I can't stand these idle people. You can count the money clearly to see if there is any missing money. You can tell me how to punish him." The woman in black clothes is not old, but her eyes have a cold and arrogant temperament that is extremely inappropriate for her age. .
"The money has been recovered. If you punish him, you will be exempted. I don't want to cause more trouble. I just want to go home as soon as possible," Xu Qian expressed her attitude.
The woman in black sneered, as if she couldn't vent her hatred, she grabbed the guy with a deer head and rat eyes and dragged him outside.
Xu Qian vaguely felt that there was an unusually cold and murderous aura in this woman's eyes. She felt nervous and hurriedly followed her for a few steps: "Hey, I said..." Before she could finish her words, the woman in black had already flashed out of the hall. At the door, she said in her heart: So fast...so strong...
Anyway, she got her money back, and it was none of her business what other people wanted to do. It was important to buy the ticket. Thinking of this, she handed the money into the window, but the wooden conductor inside said something to her.
"Tickets are sold out, please come early tomorrow,"
Xu Qian was anxious and quickly looked above the ticket gate. She thought she had gone to the wrong place. After a closer look, she saw that it was indeed the train she wanted to catch. If she couldn't buy a ticket, it meant she had nowhere to stay tonight. What should she do? , or transfer back to the hotel.
When she thought of going back to the hotel, her father's cold face came to mind. She had a feeling that she was like the canary in her father's birdcage. She finally flew out of his cage and she really didn't want to go back.
Look outside, it's completely dark. The night devil dances its ghostly tentacles and releases a confusing fog curtain, making people trapped in it and unable to escape from its control.
It was getting darker and darker outside, and black always made people fearful. Xu Qian absolutely did not dare to plunge into the darkness again. She sighed, and finally Monet sat on a long chair, waiting for the arrival of the early morning in the cold loneliness... ...She took out some warm clothes from her suitcase and put them on her body.
