Chapter 54

Chapter 54

The rain was getting heavier, and the streets were filled with the sound of howling rain hitting the leaves.

Pei Xin walked along the road they came from, grabbing Liao Liao and several pedestrians on the road to describe what Li Wenyu was wearing today, and asked if he had seen such a person passing by.

The answers they received were unanimously that they had never seen it before. The night was dark and it was raining. Everyone who was still outside was in a hurry and had no intention of paying attention to who was passing by.

Pei Xin became more and more irritable, and he began to regret taking away Li Wenyu's mobile phone.

An aunt dressed as a cleaning worker heard what Pei Xin said when she was looking for someone, and eagerly wanted to help her recall it. She stepped forward and asked, "Young man, how old and tall is the person you are talking about?"

Pei Xin frowned and paused for a moment. Said: "About my age, a little shorter than me."

The aunt's originally heavy face immediately relaxed, and she said with some suspicion: "Then why are you so worried? He is such an adult and a boy. Unless he is I want to leave, otherwise I can throw it away."

After saying that, she smiled and slowly continued to pick up the fallen leaves on the ground.

Pei Xin seemed to suddenly understand something, his face instantly darkened, and veins popped out in his right hand holding the handle of the umbrella.

I want to leave.

Li Wenyu really wanted to leave.

Pei Xin gritted his teeth and sneered, with a chill in his eyes. He looked at the taxi with dazzling flashing lights not far away, walked directly to the middle of the road in two steps and stopped the car.

The taxi driver was startled by the sudden appearance of the person and stepped on the brakes hastily. Mud and water splashed on the road. Pei Xin opened the car door and went in. The rough slam of the door shut the driver's curse words that he was about to say.

Pei Xin's whole body was stained with water, and his trouser legs were still splashed with muddy water. His face was frighteningly dark: "Go to the dock."

The driver glanced at him from the rearview mirror, swallowed the words again, and silently started the engine. car.

Pei Xin dialed the phone with his mobile phone, his voice and expression were full of venom, as thick as ink that could not be melted: "Check Li Wenyu's itinerary information, which station he bought the ticket from, time and destination Send it to me."

Pei Xin did not catch up immediately. He now had something he wanted to confirm more.

When he returned to the island, the living room of the small foreign-style house was lit with the lights that they had not turned off in a hurry when they went out. Only the bedroom was dark.

Pei Xin opened the drawer of the bedside table on the left, but it was empty.

The mobile phone and a bank card he collected from Li Wenyu were originally stored here, but they were gone now.

Li Wenyu purposely slept here last night and took a bath with cold water to make himself feverish. This was all prepared for his escape early in the morning.

The cell phone that was thrown carelessly on the bed vibrated. Pei Xin received a text message. Li Wenyu had already boarded the train back to City A.

Pei Xin smiled angrily, his cold eyebrows arching coldly. He originally didn't think that Li Wenyu could go anywhere else. His relatives, friends, and studies were all in City A. As long as he couldn't let go of these, he would never be able to escape.

Thinking of this, Pei Xin felt happy again, and even looked forward to Li Wenyu's perhaps flustered expression when they met again.

He found the cigarette case that was a little soft on his body, took out a cigarette, bit it in his mouth, and lit it slowly. However, the smell of tobacco seemed to be diluted by rain, and was unusually light. Only the rising white mist was still hazy.

Disappointed, he put out the entire cigarette in the ashtray, took off his wet and wrinkled clothes, got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then sat down and started to book a ticket back to city A.

At this time, the rain outside the house has stopped, and the distant sky is burning with the dazzling color of morning glow, slowly filling half of the sky.

This may be the long-lost sunshine in C City.

On the way to the train station, Pei Xin passed by the hotel where they had just arrived in City C. The coastline there was extremely long and the sea water was blue under the sun.

In the early morning, there were only a few tourists on the beach, the sea breeze was floating, and the shadows of palm trees were moving.

Pei Xin only glanced through the brown car window and then withdrew his gaze indifferently.

When he returned to City A, Uncle Wang was already waiting outside the station.

Pei Xin got in the car and sat in the back seat with an expressionless face: "Go to Nanwang Lane."

Uncle Wang looked a little embarrassed: "Master, Mr. Pei has been looking for you these days and asked you to go back and see him immediately after you come back."

Pei Xin repeated without even raising his face: "Go to Nanwang Lane."

Uncle Wang sighed helplessly, started the car and drove towards Nanwang Lane.

Most of the palm trees planted on the roadsides in City C, while in City A are mostly camphor and magnolia trees. When the wind is strong, the flowers and leaves fall off one after another. It had obviously just rained here, and the wheels had run over it, leaving patches of rippling puddles and ruts.

The scenery outside the window receded rapidly, and the huge dynamic posters of popular stars on the electronic screen of the mall were squirming. The light and shadow changed, pink, gold, and dazzlingly bright.

It was the Spring Festival when they left City A seven days ago. The place was decorated with lights and colorful lights, and there was still snow on the roadside. But now the winter jasmine flowers in the green belt have bloomed.

Seven days seems like a long time.

Nanwang Lane has never been lively, and most of the people living here are the elderly and children. Occasionally there will be old people sitting and basking in the sun at the entrance of the alley, but the weather is not good today, and the whole alley is particularly deserted.

Uncle Wang parked the car at the gate of the community, and Pei Xin got out of the car without saying a word, with no expression on his face. But Uncle Wang was so familiar with him that even if he just glanced in the rearview mirror, he could clearly feel the low pressure and hostility all over his body.

It was lunch time, the neighborhood was filled with the aroma of food, and the sound of cooking could be heard in the corridor. Pei Xin went upstairs and knocked on the old door. It was Ji He who opened the door.

As soon as Ji He opened the door, he saw Pei Xin standing outside. The expression on his face changed, and he felt guilty and surprised: "Pei Xin?"

Pei Xin didn't look at him, his eyes exuded sharp energy, and he glanced inside coldly. At a glance, there were three or four people surrounding the dining table, looking towards the door, but there was no Li Wenyu inside.

When Li Teng saw Pei Xin, he was obviously a little confused, but he quickly put down his chopsticks and walked over with a polite smile on his face: "Xiao Pei, why are you here? Have you eaten? Come in quickly."

Pei Xin's face brightened slightly, But there was still some condensation that he couldn't hide: "Auntie, is Li Wenyu at home? I'm looking for him."

Li Teng shook his head, with an obvious tone of blame: "No, he hasn't come back since he moved to school. What a rare day today I came back early in the morning and left again without even having breakfast."

Pei Xin frowned slightly, his eyes became more scrutinizing, and he looked back into the house. Only grandma and an unfamiliar middle-aged man were left on the dining table. . Ji He and Li Teng were indeed surprised by his arrival, and there was obviously no possibility of helping Li Wenyu hide it.

"Excuse me." His voice was deep, and he turned around neatly and went downstairs.

There was a very old camphor tree at the entrance of the community. Uncle Wang's car was parked under the tree. He rolled down the window and stared at the building where Pei Xin went up. Not long after, he saw someone striding out of it again.

Pei Xin was wearing thin clothes, and his slender figure looked even sharper in the cold wind. When he opened the car door and raised his eyes, the chill in his eyes was frightening: "Go to school and check if Li Wenyu has bought a bus ticket. If so, don't Let him go."

Uncle Wang looked at him and hesitated, but finally picked up his phone and sent a message.

But he didn't drive immediately, and said hesitantly: "It's too noisy. President Pei will definitely know about it. We still have to go back..."

Pei Xin was already impatient to the extreme and interrupted coldly: "I said go to school."

*

The make-up lesson was not over yet, and the whole school was very quiet during class time.

Pei Xin went straight to the third floor of the teaching building. The corridor was empty, and the green shadows of evergreen branches and leaves stained with rain were reflected on the glass windows of the classroom. Some people were immersed in writing questions, and some were memorizing words silently. Only the seat belonging to Li Wenyu by the window was empty.

There was no one in the school or Nanwang Lane.

Only then did Pei Xin realize a little bit of anger and uneasiness that was beyond his control.

He lowered his head and took out his cell phone to call Li Wenyu. As expected, there was a busy signal that the phone was turned off. Pei Xin gritted his teeth and held the phone tightly, a coldness bursting out of his eyes.
