1novels Chapter 46
Chapter 46
There are more than 60 children in the Yuhua Orphanage, six o'clock is the dining time in the cafeteria, Xu Jinman and Shen Shu decided to stay and have dinner with Xiao Yueya.
The inside of the cafeteria is also decorated with cute cartoons like the outside, with pink and blue tables and chairs. Children aged three and up eat by themselves, and the younger ones are assisted by nurses.
Xu Jinman walked in, slightly surprised, the environment was more orderly than she imagined, and the dishes were relatively simple, including grapes and apple slices.
The children are very sensible, and they are very quiet when eating.
Xu Jinman: "They're all so good."
Shen Shu didn't say anything, and sat next to Little Crescent Moon.
Xu Jinman sat opposite.
The two round eyes of Little Crescent Moon smiled crookedly, just like Crescent Moon, Xu Jinman couldn't help smiling, and handed some grapes on the plate to Little Crescent Moon.
"Thank you, Aunt Manman." Little Crescent Moon scooped a spoonful of rice into her mouth, lowered her head, her round cheeks were slightly swollen from eating.
Xu Jinman looked at it for a few seconds, his eyes softened.
She raised her eyes after a while, and after Shen Shu came out of the crescent moon room, she didn't speak much.
She only knew that Shen Shu was adopted by the Shen family, but she didn't know about other things about her when she was a child. Perhaps Shen Shu's life before she was adopted was not satisfactory, so she was touched by Xiao Yueya's words, and she was in a bad mood?
Xu Jinman reached out to hand over the remaining two grapes on the plate, and said in a low voice, "Why haven't you talked?"
Shen Shu: "What are you talking about? Let's eat."
Xu Jinman looked at her, thinking of what to say, a scent fell from the seat beside her.
Lin Wei sat down and put a stack of cut mangoes in Xu Jinman's hand, and said with a smile, "Miss Xu, these are the mangoes you bought today. I cut some and brought them here."
Xu Jinman: "This is for the children to eat, give it to Little Crescent Moon."
"Little Yueya is allergic to mango and can't eat it. Other children can eat it tomorrow, and don't you like it?"
Little Crescent Moon licked the rice grains from the side of her mouth into her mouth, nodded: "Yeah." After swallowing, she said: "Eating mangoes will make you sick."
Lin Wei moved the mango towards her again: "I tasted it, it's very sweet."
Xu Jinman glanced at Shen Shu inexplicably: "Ah, thank you."
"The things were sent by you, so I should thank you."
I chatted with Lin Wei for a while in the afternoon, but I didn't get any useful information, but from the chat, I can tell that this person is quite responsible for the children.
Just as Xu Jinman pushed the mango towards Shen Shu, she saw Shen Shu put the two grapes she gave just now on a small crescent plate and said, "You can eat it, I don't need it."
Xu Jinman looked at Shen Shu twice, but didn't push her any further.
Finish meal at 06:30.
The children were sitting in rows in the hall listening to the story, Xu Jinman looked at the time and said to Shen Shu, "Will you stay with her for a while?"
Shen Shu raised her eyes, Xu Jinman said, "I'll tell you later."
Shen Shu didn't ask much.
Xu Jinman went into Xiao Yueya's room alone, and locked the door with his backhand.
After leaving here in the afternoon, the feeling of ignoring something became stronger, and I always felt that I had to come back here to find the answer.
From the place where the door was opened, the eyes carefully scanned the room back and forth several times, behind the door, chairs, desks, bookcases, wardrobes, beds.
Finally, he stopped at the desk drawer, opened it, and took out the sketchbook again from inside.
Every time she turned a page, Xu Jinman seemed to experience the original body's mood at that time. Sometimes she relaxed, sometimes she collapsed, and every stroke was extreme.
Xu Jinman turned to the last page, there was a dark cloud above, and a bird caught in chains underneath, with a bamboo tube tied to the bird's feet.
She stared at it for a moment, then suddenly turned her gaze to the drawer.
Xu Jinman squatted down, pulled the drawer to the end, reached out and poked her hand in, her fingertips touched the texture of the paper plate... something fixed it underneath, she stretched her hand forward, and pulled out the thing underneath .
a notebook.
The moment Xu Jinman got the things, the blur in Xu Jinman's heart suddenly became clear.
She sat down at the desk, pushed the small desk lamp in front of her, and opened the notebook.
There is a sentence on each page, Xu Jinman flipped through each page, the more he looked at it, the more chills he felt down his spine.
—I should be glad you found it.
——I'm not crazy, I know I'm being replaced by you.
——Did you know that I was too impatient to wait, so you came to replace me?never mind.
——Don’t try to delete the maggot-like past in my memory.
--This is impossible.
——Once you think of all this, I firmly believe that you will still be me in the end. You are very clear that you are being influenced by me, otherwise how would you find this diary?
——Don't be afraid, find the devil's key in Xu Tao's study, remind you, it's also under the drawer.
——My room... no, it's your room, go back there.
—When you remember how to use that key, don't forget that 0323 is the day when your life and theirs end.I am waiting for you.
——I give you my body, my pain, and the end, so don't let me down.
——The most important thing is that we should not forget to be a bird when we are born again.
——We can be friends, I will play with you, and you will play with me.
——At that time, we will be free.
Before she traveled here, the original body already had a premonition, but only thought that she had a split personality.
If she didn't have a clear memory of another world, when she saw these notes, she would even suspect that she was not time travel.
Although there are some words that are not right, they are crazy.
Xu Jinman still drew a few key points from it.
First: There is a key under the drawer in Xu Tao's study room, which can unlock something in Yuan's room.
Second: the stuff inside is very dangerous.
Third: 0323 is a date, it may be the date when the original body chose to take revenge.
Xu Jinman sat at the table for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion that she needed to go to Xu's house again.
Because what Yuanshen said was very clear, what the key opened was not only dangerous to the Xu family, but also dangerous to her.
Like a ticking time bomb, she had to know what was inside before dismantling the danger.
Xu Jinman's eyes stayed on 0323.
Now at the beginning of September, there is still half a year before March.What is the meaning of this date?
She remembered the password box in Shen Shu's house again... Is it possible that this is the password of the box?
Xu Jinman was thinking, when there was a knock on the door.
Putting the notebook in the bag, Xu Jinman opened the door, it was the principal.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Xu, I wanted to talk to you for a while, but I'm in a hurry. Are you leaving tonight or tomorrow?" The principal smiled apologetically.
She still wanted to chat with the principal about Little Crescent Moon, Xu Jinman thought about it, and said, "Is it convenient to live here?"
The director said: "Oh, there is a place, but there is no air conditioner, and the bathhouse can't take a shower tonight. The water pipe blew up this afternoon, and the water that was connected was used by the children at night... I'm afraid the conditions are not good."
Xu Jinman didn't want to cause trouble either. When she came, she saw a hotel in the town.
After the dean left, Xu Jinman looked back at the sketchbook on the table.
Close the door.
Xu Jinman returned to the hall, looked around but did not find Shen Shu and Little Crescent Moon, but a little boy saw her looking for someone, and took the initiative to tug on her skirt.
"They're playing on the swing."
Xu Jinman smiled and said, "Thank you."
The little boy ran away laughing.
Xu Jinman found that the children here are very cheerful and lively, such as Little Crescent Moon, who met Yuanshen and Yin Xue, and were not led astray... It has a lot to do with the education in this place.
The director must have contributed to this.
She should have a good chat tomorrow.
Xu Jinman went out through the corridor, went the wrong way, couldn't find the front, but still heard the little girl's laughter.
Go through from behind.
There is a very bright headlight on the open space ahead, and there is a small playground for children below, with sand pits and slides.
There are two swings on the side, and Xiao Yueya and Shen Shu are sitting on the swings with their backs to her.
"Okay, Aunt Shen Shu, now I'll push you!" Xiao Yueya smiled and jumped down, pushing Shen Shu onto the swing.
Shen Shu: "You can't push me."
The cold voice will be softer for children, with a hint of laughter and relaxation.
Little Yueya still took Shen Shu's hand and forcibly dragged her onto the swing.
Shen Shu sat up, touched the ground with her toes, and said with a chuckle, "Little Yueya, slow down."
"Don't worry, I'm very good!" Little Crescent Moon pushed the person out with all her strength, Shen Shu cooperated and moved forward, and the swing gently swayed.
Shen Shu boasted: "Little Yueya is really powerful."
Little Crescent: "Of course, I'm super good!"
Xu Jinman couldn't help smiling, wearing white sneakers, walked over slowly, walked behind Xiao Yueya, and lightly grabbed the ball on Xiao Yueya's head.
Little Yueya raised her head in surprise, Xu Jinman made a hush immediately, and then motioned for Little Yueya to move aside.
Little Crescent Moon covered her mouth and retreated to the side with a smile, like a little clever ghost.
Shen Shu felt that the focus on her back had changed, and she wanted to jump off the swing, but Xu Jinman was startled by her movement, and took her back with one hand.
Shen Shu only felt her head resting on the softness, and her whole back was hot.
The headlights elongated the shadow of them leaning together, Xu Jinman hugged Shen Shu from behind, the shadow looked like two intimate lovers cuddling together.
"Oh!" Xiao Yueya yelled, covering her eyes with five fingers: "Shame!"
Xu Jinman let go of him.
After a moment of silence, he went over and rubbed Xiao Yueya's head: "I was afraid that your Aunt Shen Shu would fall."
After speaking, Xu Jinman looked at Shen Shu again: "How can anyone jump directly? Are you afraid of falling?"
Shen Shu: "You are not scary, can I dance?"
Xu Jinman: "..."
The truth is this truth.
The two sent Xiao Yueya back to the room, and the nurse came over after a while and delivered a small half bucket of hot water for Xiao Yueya to wash and wash her body.
Xu Jinman was in charge of twisting the towel to change the water.
Shen Shu helped Xiao Yueya wipe her body and change into clean clothes.
After Xiao Yueya packed up and went to bed, Shen Shu threw the dirty clothes on the changing cart outside.
Inside the room, Little Crescent Moon called softly: "Aunt Manman."
Then the little hand made a move to Xu Jinman.
Xu Jinman leaned over and felt something extra in his hand: "Give this to Aunt Shen Shu, and she won't be angry."
Xu Jinman looked into his palm, it was a grape-flavored candy.
"You see that she is unhappy?" Xu Jinman glanced at the door and said with a low laugh.
In fact, Shen Shu couldn't be said to be unhappy, her speech and expression were similar to usual, but it was a bit weird.Xu Jinman still attributed it to being touched by the environment of the orphanage.
After eight o'clock in the evening, after Xiao Yueya fell asleep, Xu Jinman and Shen Shu were going to go to the town.
When going out, Lin Wei came out from the building and called Xu Jinman to stop.
"Miss Xu, are you leaving?"
"Ah."
"That's great, Ms. Xu, we don't have WeChat yet, can you add one? Then I can send you a picture of Little Crescent Moon."
Shen Shu said softly, "You guys talk, I'll get in the car first."
After Shen Shu finished speaking, she walked to the front door.
Xu Jinman glanced at Shen Shu's back, and said, "My phone is with my wife."
Chatted with Lin Wei for a while in the afternoon. Lin Wei came here a month ago, and I didn't hear any information from the words. It was only after eating that Lin Wei pulled her to talk again, and realized that this person was interesting to her.
We didn't talk any more after that.
Lin Wei is handsome, fair-skinned, and most importantly big.
Don't be messed with by the original body again, she doesn't want to be messed with, so she gave up her thoughts earlier.
The street lamps here are lit every other, and the light is not very good, and it is not until the town is brightened.
There was no talk in the car.
Xu Jinman opened his mouth twice and didn't say anything more.
After driving around, there was only one 99 Hotel whose signboard could barely be seen, because it was a Saturday, and there were many people staying, but fortunately, there were two adjacent single rooms left.Or people just returned.
Xu Jinman opened the door.
The bed is 1.35 meters, the room is very small, the bathroom is only the size of a palm, the light is dark, and there is a smell of 84 disinfectant.
Xu Jinman asked the person at the door next door: "Would you like to go somewhere else?"
Or drive to the city, just a little later.
Shen Shu said: "Do you mind?"
Xu Jinman said: "I don't mind, I'm afraid you will feel uncomfortable." She has never lived in such a bad place, but it is not impossible to live in it.
Shen Shu paused, and said: "Then live here, so as not to run away."
"Okay." Xu Jinman looked at her and said, "Then go to bed early."
"Ah."
"Good night then?"
Shen Shu opened the door: "Good night."
The bathroom is very small, and the shower is only separated by a water-blocking curtain. There is no glass, and the curtain is beige floral, which fades after a long time of use.
He tied up his hair, barely took a shower, and lay down on the bed.
Xu Jinman picked up the phone, and for a few hours, there were dozens of unprocessed messages on the screen, most of which belonged to the company, as well as Tong Jiala's group.
The company's main thing is the live broadcast platform, and programmers and engineers have already entered the work.
However, there are disagreements on whether to use the source code or to design exclusively. Some people think that "opening the source code" can save development resources. After all, the live broadcast platform has been released, but it is rare, and there is no need for another design.
Some people advocate exclusive design, because Xu Jinman's concept is very novel, which is a kind of innovation.
Competing and quarreling actually started arguing.
Xu Jinman opened the mineral water and took a sip, and sent a smiley face in the group, and the people arguing in the group immediately quieted down.
Xu Jinman: [If the framework is large enough to meet our design needs, we can use the source code to open, but everyone should know that what I want to do is a product that can be imitated but cannot be surpassed.I'm not a programmer. Whether you can do this or not requires you to think about it. I am responsible for two things. 】
Xu Jinman: [Pay money and results. 】
After speaking, the people in the group stopped arguing.
Xu Jinman went back, just in time to see Shen Shu talking in Tong Jiala's group, and clicked in.
Shen Shu: [Come back tomorrow afternoon, I made an appointment with Director Zhang to meet in the afternoon. 】
Tong Jia: [Okay, you guys are so romantic, a trip that you can just leave? 】
Xinxin: [Mu Mu Mu. 】
Xiaodong: [Mu Mu Mu. 】
Shen Shu: [I'm sleeping, I'll talk about it tomorrow. 】
Tong Jia: [@徐晋曼Why doesn't Mr. Xu speak? 】
Tong Jia: [tsk tsk, go to bed so early, go to sleep, go to sleep]
Seeing Shen Shufa sleeping, Xu Jinman didn't say a word at all. She was about to come out, but Tong Jia didn't know what to say with her unguarded personality.
Next door, Shen Shu watched the chat on the screen, followed by Tong Jia and Xinxin talking, she watched for a while and turned off the phone.
There was no night light in the room, so Shen Shu kept the one in the bathroom and turned off the light in the bedroom.
Lie down on the bed, the window is very close to the bed, the sound insulation is not good, the sound of the car outside can be heard even when the window is closed, and there are occasional people talking and laughing in the aisle.
She dropped the coat from the car on the pillow, and the quilt only covered her heart.
I didn't sleep very well, and I don't know how long it took before I couldn't hold back my sleepiness...
Just about to fall asleep, suddenly, a heavy knock on the door woke her up.
Then came the second sound.
"Open the door! Damn it, bitch! Open the door for me!"
Shen Shu picked up the phone and walked a few steps towards the door. She found that Xu Jinman's number was broadcast subconsciously, and she stopped suddenly.
At this time, a strange and inferior Alpha pheromone came from the crack of the door.
Shen Shu frowned, and she took a step back in resistance.
"Bang bang bang-"
The knock on the door got louder.
"Fuck, who are you, what are you pushing me for?"
"You are looking for the wrong door."
Shen Shu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that familiar voice.
"It's none of your business? Go back to your room! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Outside, Xu Jinman pinched the drunk man's shoulder blades with one hand, and the bones made a slight twisting sound.
Xu Jinman said coolly, "Get lost."
After speaking, he threw the person to the ground.
The drunk Alpha looked at her in horror on the ground, even his legs were shaking.
Even if the top-level Alpha doesn't reveal pheromone, it has a natural deterrent to the three types of people below the ABO level.The pheromone he released just now was suppressed almost instantly when the woman appeared.
After people crawled and disappeared in the corridor, Xu Jinman gently knocked on the door: "Shen Shu, it's me."
The next second, the door opened.
Seeing her pale face, Xu Jinman took a step closer and asked, "Are you okay?"
Shen Shu shook her head, she just smelled that despicable smell...
Xu Jinman followed Shen Shu into the door.
That Alpha level is very low, and it is reasonable to say that it cannot affect an S-level Omega like Shen Shu, but her face is still a bit ugly.
Xu Jinman remembered Shen Shu's resistance to Alpha, and when Shen Shu opened the door just now, there was an undetectable nervousness in her eyes.
She unscrewed the mineral water and handed it over: "Drink some water."
Shen Shu took it without drinking.
After a while, she said, "Go back to your room and sleep."
"Can you sleep?"
"Sleep when you're tired."
Xu Jinman didn't answer immediately, but looked on the ground.
The distance between the bed and the window is small, and you can sleep.
"I'll come and sleep." Xu Jinman's voice was gentle, but his tone was non-discussive. He removed the stool beside the bed and deliberately adjusted the atmosphere, "Just get out of bed and don't step on me."
"I'm fine, you go back to sleep."
"I have something to do."
Shen Shu and Xu Jinman made eye contact.
Xu Jinman said: "I'm scared. Didn't you see how scary that drunk man is? If there is a knock on my door, we have someone to take care of him."
Shen Shu: "..."
The corners of Xu Jinman's mouth were raised slightly, as he said he was going to go out.
Shen Shu glanced at the floor, the paint was peeling off where her feet stepped on, and I don't know how many people stepped on it.
"Too dirty."
Xu Jinman said: "It's okay to put a quilt on it."
Shen Shu: "Sleep on the bed."
Xu Jinman: "...Huh?"
Shen Shu repeated concisely: "Take the quilt and sleep on the bed."
The tip of Xu Jinman's tongue subconsciously touched the seam of her lower lip, and said in silence, "Forget it, the bed is fine."
After saying this, Shen Shu stared at Xu Jinman for a few seconds, then looked away: "Xu Jinman, can you stop making me look so mean?"
Can't she tell good from bad?
Don't you know that Xu Jinman stayed because she saw her fear?
Shen Shu didn't want to say anything more, but when she opened her mouth, she suddenly became angry: "If you mind sleeping in the same bed with me, go back, I don't need you to accompany me."
Xu Jinman: "..."
Conscience, what does she mind?
You can't say that you are afraid that your thoughts are not so pure, can you?
Why are you still a little angry?
Shen Shu lifted the quilt and fell asleep with her back to Xu Jinman, her voice regained her calmness: "Go out and turn off the light for me, thank you."
After a while, the lights in the room were turned off.
Shen Shu opened her eyes, looked at the door of the wooden cabinet opposite, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling inexplicably blocked.
I wanted to wait for the door to close before going to lock it, but there was no movement.
Suddenly I heard the door being pushed open again.
Close it, lock it.
Footsteps stomped on the door.
Following the faint light from the bathroom, Xu Jinman hugged the quilt and walked to the bed, bent over and whispered to the person in the middle of the bed: "Miss Shen? Move in?"
Shen Shu didn't answer, and leaned to the right.
Xu Jinman put most of the quilt between the two of them, thinking that they would sleep separately anyway.
However, no one in the house fell asleep.
Xu Jinman went through the whole day's events carefully in her mind again. In fact, she could feel Shen Shu's subtle emotions a few times, and she guessed that Shen Shu was touched by the little crescent moon.
In fact, she was also thinking about other things.
It's just that she wasn't sure if it was her own delusion, or she was just being sentimental.
Some feelings you can't explain clearly, but you can feel its existence, but because you can't touch it or see it, it's hazy like a layer of veil.
A little dangerous and makes you hesitate.
After a while, Xu Jinman said: "That Lin Wei is taking care of Little Crescent Moon, why don't you add her WeChat for me tomorrow?"
Shen Shu: "Why don't you add it yourself?"
Xu Jinman said: "She seems to be interested in me a little bit, I'm afraid to give her an illusion."
Shen Shu didn't speak.
Xu Jinman said: "Little Yueya is very cute and pitiful. I can go and see her when I'm free... If you're free, we can go together. Adding WeChat, it's convenient to ask her about her situation occasionally. What do you think? "
She could tell that Shen Shu liked little crescent moon very much.
"Well, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Xu Jinman: "Okay, let's sleep then."
Shen Shu: "Yes."
"Good night."
Before waiting for a response, Xu Jinman turned over and heard the person beside him say softly: "I set the alarm clock at seven o'clock."
Xu Jinman opened his eyes and smiled silently: "What a coincidence, so am I."
I don't know if it's because my heart is quiet, or the outside world is also quiet.
Not long after, there was only the sound of even breathing in the room.
It's a pity that not long after, Shen Shu turned her body slightly and opened her eyes. In the middle of the night, she was very tired. Under the yellowish light—the two were separated by a certain distance, Xu Jinman was facing her direction, curling up slightly. , the quilt on his body has disappeared without a trace.
This person is really easy to kick the quilt, which she has seen several times.
Shen Shu originally wanted to help Xu Jinman pick it up, but after thinking about it for a while, she was too lazy to move. She looked at Xu Jinman, and put the edge of the quilt on her body towards the heart.
Then he moved a little to the right, and opened a little distance without any effect.
Xu Jinman slept very well, she felt like she was in a grand herb garden, she was surrounded by the sweet smell of vanilla.The smell attracted her, and she couldn't help but want to get closer.
She even wanted to rub that smell into her body.
"Ah—" Suddenly, a comfortable cry came into his ears.
Xu Jinman frowned, slandering that the sound insulation of this hotel is really poor, it is almost impossible to sleep, and it is estimated that Shen Shu can't sleep well either.
Thinking of this, she suddenly realized something was wrong, and suddenly opened her eyes——
She didn't know when she got into Shen Shu's quilt, Omega's snow-white and slender neck was within reach, and she could even imagine the suet-like touch.
Xu Jinman took a breath unconsciously, and the sweet breath was inhaled into his lungs in an instant.
In the next second, bursts of numbness and tingling came from the glands, and the body became dry||heated up...
