Sure enough, looking at Lin Xi, Zhang Cui made a smile on her sorted expression.
Added a big piece of fat to Linxi.
"You child, why do you patronize meals and eat meat?"
After a pause, Zhang Cui said again: "I'm going to go to my hometown, Xiaoxi, you haven't been there, right? This time you can go back with me and have a look. You can also stay at your hometown for a while."
coming.
Lin Xi thought to himself, took a mouthful of food calmly, looked at Zhang Cui, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Okay, why did you want me to go to my hometown?"
"Isn't it okay for you?"
Lin Xi shook his head: "I don't want to go."
Seeing Lin Xi's resolute tone, Zhang Cui knew that it was useless to say that, so she pretended to sigh again and said the 'truth': "Actually, this is for your own good, you and Xinxin have this kind of thing at school, When you go to the school, you must be sure that your classmates will tell you about you, and the school may have penalties, so what if you are asked to write an inspection and take a demerit?"
"So, you and grandma go to live in the country for a while, and we'll come back when this matter is eased."
- I believed you a ghost.
Lin Xi complained in his heart.
And Lin Anxin, how did she fall into the lake without a B number in her heart? He actually nodded along with Zhang Cui's words and looked at her worriedly.
At this time, even Song Kexin, who rarely talked to Lin Xi, spoke up and said, "Grandma is also for your own good."
Zhang Cui nodded quickly: "Yes, the conditions in my hometown are not bad. Besides, I'm only staying for a while, and I don't want to stay there forever."
Lin Xi still refused: "Then what should I do in class?"
"Don't worry about it, there is no school in the village." After a pause, Zhang Cui added, "Your mother graduated there before."
Seeing that Lin Xi was not talking, it was a default to bury her avatar. The smile on Zhang Cui's face widened a bit, and a bit of kindness appeared on her face, and said, "Then it's settled, after dinner, you clean up. Pack up and let's go."
Xu Jiaofeng, who was on the side, took a sip of the soup and said, "Let Uncle Li send you off later."
"Okay, then I will trouble my mother." Zhang Cui gave Xu Jiaofeng a grateful smile.
Lin Xi looked at the interaction of several people, and sneered in his heart: Since everything has been decided, he came to ask her what she was doing symbolically.
Knowing that the opposition was invalid, Lin Xi was too lazy to struggle.
Lin Xi poked at the rice with the chopsticks in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I still have a few notebooks with my classmates. If I want to leave, I have to go to the school to get the notebooks back."
Xu Jiaofeng was a little unhappy, and showed dissatisfaction: "What can I bring with you a few broken notebooks, what can't you buy when you go there?"
"It's got my notes on it."
What Xu Jiaofeng had to say, seeing Song Kexin winking at her, she accepted the words with an unpleasant expression, feeling a little dissatisfied: Isn't it worth the trouble to send a child away
Several people looked at each other, Xu Jiaofeng said, "That's fine, I'll leave tomorrow."
"But you have to leave early tomorrow, so you can't delay, or you'll delay your grandma's business."
—Xu Jiaofeng looked down on Zhang Cui at all, and would she still think so for her? It was obvious that he wanted to leave quickly.
Lin Xi wanted to laugh in his heart, but he stopped talking, buried his face in the bowl, and nodded, thinking about his own calculations.
—
Because they were going to school to pack up their books and had breakfast, Lin Xi and Lin Anxin went to school together by car.
In the car, Lin Anxin looked at Lin Xi, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered, "Sister, I'm sorry, it was too chaotic yesterday, I don't know how I fell into the water, I told my grandma and my mother, but they Don't believe what I said."
Lin Xi turned his head to one side, ignoring Lin Anxin.
Seeing this, Lin Anxin's eyes flashed a trace of dissatisfaction and hatred. After thinking about it, he continued: "I didn't expect grandma to take you to your hometown. I heard that the conditions there are very poor, or you should tell grandma not to go."
Lin Anxin was deliberately provoking Lin Xi, but when she said it, it was like a fist on cotton, and Lin Xi didn't react at all.
Lin Anxin was a little frustrated, and withdrew her gaze in disappointment.
Along the way, the two never communicated.
When they got to the school, the two got off the bus and went to their own classrooms.
Because of what happened the day before yesterday, Lin Anxin brought two bodyguards into the school. To Lin Anxin's blessing, a bodyguard was also arranged behind Lin Xi.
But the other party's job is not to protect her, but to monitor her.
—
When Lin Xi arrived in the classroom, he started to pack his things, including the test papers in the desk and the textbooks in the storage box at the back.
"Hey, have you heard about Lin Anxin?"
Suddenly hearing a familiar name, Lin Xi's hand for packing things paused for a second, and then she heard a few girls in the corner seem to be discussing what happened to Lin Anxin yesterday.
"Lin Anxin, who is the first grade flower of the first grade?"
"That's right, it's her."
"What happened to her?" a girl asked suspiciously.
"You don't know that she was blocked by Yan Xueqi to the artificial lake the day before yesterday, and then fell into the lake. Many people watched."
"Is it so exciting?" The girl who was puzzled before asked in surprise: "What's going on? How did she get Yan Xueqi and the others?"
"Yeah, that Lin Anxin can't think about it, actually going to provoke Yan Xueqi." Another girl also said in surprise.
Yan Xueqi also has a few small followers who are a group of bad students in the school. I heard that the family background is not small. Under normal circumstances, everyone will not take the initiative to provoke those people.
"You know Wang Yukai from Class C, right?"
"I know, Yan Xueqi's childhood sweetheart. Wouldn't it be a love triangle?"
"It's more exciting than this." After a pause, the girl said again: "That Lin Anxin probably doesn't like Wang Yukai, but Wang Yukai confessed to her and she didn't refuse to give her gifts, but when she left WeChat, she deliberately called her good friend. I left her WeChat to Wang Yukai, and lied to her good friend that Wang Yukai likes her."
"Woc! There is such an operation, so her good friend always thinks that Wang Yukai is chasing him, and Wang Yukai always thinks that he is chasing Lin Anxin? This operation is enough, what does she want to do? Neptune still hires employees?"
"I haven't finished yet, Lin Anxin received the gift from Wang Yukai on the front foot, and gave it to her good friend directly on the back foot, and said that Wang Yukai asked her to help hand it over to her. Guess what, Yan Xueqi was caught in this process. Right."
"What a big melon, no wonder Yan Xueqi wants to trouble her. But how do you know?"
"You don't read the forum, Yan Xueqi said in a post on the forum."
"Let's see." The man took out his mobile phone and quickly flipped through the forum: "No, it seems to be reversed."
"real?"
"Look at it for yourself. It was a post from a friend of Lin Anxin, saying that she had asked Lin Anxin, and that Lin Anxin herself was confused. She always thought that what Wang Yukai liked was a good friend, and she just asked her to spread the word."
"Isn't it, friends from nothing? Some people believe this explanation?"
"The problem is that some people believe it. Well, a lot of people support Lin Anxin. Here and here, there are also people who say that Lin Anxin is cute and cute."
…
- It was so.
Hearing the conversation of several people, Lin Xi's mouth twitched. While he was amazed at Lin Anxin's actions, he finally knew the cause of what happened the day before yesterday, and was a little speechless.
The school was full of gossip about the whole incident. As long as Xu Jiaofeng and the others came to the school to learn about it, they would know that Lin Anxin's falling into the water had nothing to do with her, but they firmly chose to believe Lin Anxin's nonsense, perhaps not because they believed it, but deliberately Selected favoritism.
—
Over there, several girls were still complaining. At this time, one of the girls seemed to have discovered the existence of Lin Xi here, pouted, and stopped the classmate who was about to speak.
"Let's talk in another place." She whispered, and the girl pointed in Lin Xi's direction to the others.
When several people saw Lin Xi, their expressions were the same as the previous girl.
"Let's go, let's go over there and talk." A few people walked away quickly, as if Lin Xi here was some kind of virus.
Lin Xi was used to being numb to such a situation.
When Lin Xi first entered the school, he got along well with everyone and had good friends. But since last semester, there have been many malicious rumors about Lin Xi in the school forum: saying that she is a child who sent samples to someone else's house, that she is the child of SR criminals, that she is the child of QJ criminals, that she is taking exams. All of her grades came from cheating, and even worse, she said that she had an improper relationship with the fifty- or sixty-year-old boss in the school's printing room, so every time she could get the test papers in advance and do so well...
Obviously these rumors are outrageous, but some people believe it.
Good friends gradually alienated her, and others around her also avoided her.
Although the school later came forward to confirm that the rumors were false and cleaned up all forum information, the impact of the rumors itself could not be erased.
The funny thing is: the school said the day before that it would find out the students who spread rumors and deal with it seriously, but the next day, the school seemed to have forgotten about it and didn't mention it again.
Lin Xi took a deep breath, speeding up and putting the book in his bag.
—
After leaving the classroom, Lin Xi went to the experimental classroom again.
"Teacher, I landed in the laboratory before I had the stationery." Outside the laboratory, Lin Xi said to the laboratory administrator.
For good students, the teacher never doubted, so he opened the door and let Lin Xi in.
Lin Xi walked to her laboratory table and opened the drawer. There were indeed a few spare pens she kept in it. Lin Xi quickly put the pens into her schoolbag, and at the same time, she was still holding a few pens that had slipped out of the drawer. Small circuit components and experimental wires.
There are spares for these consumables in almost every test bench drawer, but Linxi doesn't need much.
After leaving the laboratory, Lin Xi went to the Academic Affairs Office again.
Song Kexin and the others had already called the school in advance to ask for a long vacation for Lin Xi, so Lin Xi just went to tell her, and the school let her out in advance.
—
When the car passed a store, Lin Xi stopped the driver.
"What's the matter, miss?"
"I'm going to buy something to take with me when I go out."
The driver stopped the car after thinking about it. Lin Xi went into the store to buy what he needed, took some snacks, mixed some food to fill his stomach, and returned to the car.
—
When he got home, Song Kexin called the bodyguard to him alone and asked, "I called you a long time ago, why did it take so long to come back from school?"
Song Kexin was worried that Lin Xi would suddenly regret not going when he noticed the abnormality.
"Back to my wife, the middle lady stopped and went to the mall to buy something."
"What did you buy?"
"Power bank, electric fan, some skin care products, some snacks such as potato chips, and I also went to buy some deworming water, colds, and antiseptic medicines. And... and a few plush toys."
Hearing the bodyguard's words, Song Kexin's eyes moved slightly: To buy these things, it seems that Lin Xi is indeed ready to go to his hometown in the countryside.
Song Kexin was relieved.
"Well, I see, you go down."
"Yes."
—
Here, after Lin Xi returned to the room, he did not come out again.
Lin Xi, who has been staying in the room, did not arouse suspicion from others.
In the room, in front of Lin Xi was a simple recirculation device made of bottles and jars found in the kitchen. After confirming it carefully, Lin Xi added crushed peppers and alcohol and connected it to the heating power supply.
The solvent soon begins to boil, and the process of evaporation and solidification is continuously cycled.
This is a very long waiting process.
Holding his chin and staring for a while, Lin Xi retracted his gaze, and took out the power bank he bought today and some circuit components and wires hidden in the school bag from the bag.
Disassemble the power bank with a screwdriver and a utility knife, and the structure inside is simpler than Lin Xi thought.
After researching the circuit, Lin Xi quickly found a safety current limiting device, and cut the safety control circuit simply, and Lin Xi removed the output end of the power bank.
Lin Xi took apart several sounding plush toys, and sure enough, she found the magnet she wanted inside the sounding speaker.
According to the calculated number, Lin Xi circled the short wire around the magnet and then linked it.
Soon, a small transformer was completed.
Lin Xi put the power bank output terminal on one end of the small transformer, and hid the two wire heads on the other side on the left and right sides of the UBS interface.
After doing all this, Lin Xi restored the power bank to its original appearance intact.
Press the power bank switch, and the wires on both sides of the UBS interface are directly connected to a visible electric light instantly.
Such shocks are not lethal, but enough to knock down an adult.
Holding the homemade 'electric stun stick', Lin Xi smiled with satisfaction.
Immediately, he turned his attention to the simple return device over there.
Lin Xi replaced the already warm Ice Sprite with a can of Ice Coke, added some alcohol again, and continued to repeat the previous operation.
It was not until after repeating this process four times that Lin Xi got a very small bottle of capsaicin solution. Although it was not as clear as she imagined, it was still filled with impurities, but it was the best she could do. .
After taking off the cumbersome bottles and jars, Lin Xi leaned close to the mouth of the bottle and smelled it, and a pungent irritating smell rushed to his forehead.
"It should be fine."
Lin Xi wiped the irritated tears from her face and waited for the solution to cool before carefully pouring it into the pressurized water lotion spray bottle she had previously bought at the store.
Looking left and right, Lin Xi put the 'toner' label sent by the store on it.
Perfect!
Lin Xi packed his things into his luggage.
After hesitating for a while, he still took out the utility knife and scissors.
Another small slit was made in the inconspicuous seam lining of the backpack, and the few cash bills that came out would be stuffed in.
I checked it several times to make sure there was no omission.
—
After completing these, it is almost the middle of the night.
Lin Xi was so sleepy that he climbed into the bed and fell into a drowsy sleep.
I don't know how long it took, and some fragmentary images appeared in Lin Xi's mind again.
In the dream, she seemed to be in a dark alley, she was running desperately, and the voices behind her were noisy.
In the dark, she was caught.
Lin Xi fell to the ground and retreated desperately, but she was still surrounded by a group of people in front of her, and she was forced to the corner.
Lin Xi couldn't see their faces clearly, but felt that no one's expressions were terrifying.
They approached her, they grabbed her limbs, someone kicked her hard in the stomach a few times, someone grabbed her hair and slammed her head against the wall, shaking with pain.
-do not want! Help!
Lin Xi wanted to shout loudly, but couldn't make a sound.
Numerous hands stretched out towards her.
…
The dream came to an abrupt end at this moment.
"do not want!"
Lin Xi shouted and woke up from a nightmare.
Lin Xi shrunk himself under the quilt, his whole body was still trembling, and his numb hands gripped the quilt tightly.
At this moment, Lin Xi's face was pale, with cold sweat all over her back and forehead. In her brown eyes, the intense panic did not calm down for a long time. She kept repeating the terrifying image of the last scene in her mind. Too real, too real to even be a dream.
The 'bang bang bang' knock on the door brought Lin Xi back to his senses.
Ma Li's voice came from outside the house: "Miss awake? You're going to leave soon. The old lady told you to get ready and hurry down."
"good."
—
20 minutes later, Lin Xi packed up and went downstairs with his luggage on his back.
Seeing the huge luggage bag behind Lin Xi, Zhang Cui was surprised: "Why do you carry such a big bag? How much stuff did you pack?"
"Didn't you say you want to stay in your hometown for a few days?" Lin Xi asked back.
Zhang Cui reacted immediately and nodded in agreement: "Okay, okay, bring a little more, so as not to get what's missing there."
According to their plan, not to let Lin Xi live in the country for a few days, but to let her stay there for at least several years. Just bring some more stuff.
Song Kexin looked at Lin Xi's backpack and didn't know where the unease came from, so she instructed the servants beside her, "Mum Li, go and take a look at her, lest there be any leaks."
Li Ma responded, went up to get Lin Xi's backpack, opened it and checked it.
Most of the backpack is clothes, textbooks, and some snacks. The rest are a few bottles of travel-sized toiletries and skin care products, as well as a power bank. There is nothing unusual, and this equipment is completely safe to travel.
"Young madam, you've brought it all together."
Song Kexin nodded, and stared at it again, only to suppress the anxiety in her heart.
"When you're ready, let's go."
Zhang Cui led Lin Xi to set off.
At this time, Lam Yize came down from the upstairs.
The moment he saw Lin Yize, Lin Xi's complexion changed dramatically, he took a few steps back and fell on the sofa.
"Xiao Xi, what's wrong?" The eyes of several people focused on Lin Xi, and even Lin Yize over there gave Lin Xi a cold look.
"I, I'm a little dizzy from hunger, maybe it's low blood sugar." Lin Xi explained with a pale face.
"It's no big deal if you're hungry and dizzy. I've brought snacks here, and I'll eat them in the car later." Zhang Cui said, looking at the time: "I can't delay, I don't know if there is a traffic jam or not, let's go."
Lin Xi nodded, followed Zhang Cui and got into the car driven by Uncle Li.
While Lin Xi got in the car and hadn't gotten in, Zhang Cui patted Song Kexin's hand: "What's the matter, are you reluctant?"
Song Kexin shook his head and expressed his concerns: "Mom, what if Lin Xi finds out that something is wrong and runs out of the village?"
Zhang Cui didn't worry: "Don't worry, she has no money and doesn't know the way, how can she run? Besides, it's not like you don't know about our village, there are still more than ten kilometers to the nearest suburban station. I can't go. When she finds out, it will be noisy for a while at most, I have already told Zhang Qiang, take a good look, and settle down after a long time. "
Seeing that her relief was effective, Zhang Cui stopped delaying and got into the car.
"Goodbye Mom, goodbye Xiaoxi." Song Kexin waved with the two in the car.
Lin Xi turned his head stiffly, trying to maintain his normal expression, and also shook his hand towards the few people outside the car, saying goodbye, but his eyes did not dare to stay on Lin Yize's body.
Knowing that the car was far away, Lin Xi was slightly relieved.
- The dream from last night reappeared in Lin Xi's mind.
Just before the dream ended, through the heavy figures, she could clearly see the face of the man standing not far behind the group of people.
It's Yize Lam!
