C2 The Lost Pendant

I was called in by my mom's sisters in the hair salon, and they saw me crying so miserably that they didn't want me to affect the business at the store door. However, they were all nice people, so they didn't say anything when they called me in.

It was much better here than in school.

Sister Mei used a towel to wash my hair and helped me wipe the chalk on my back while asking me what exactly happened.

However, I really didn't know how to say what happened just now, so I could only stop my tears.

Sister Mei looked upstairs and said, "That Sister Ling. . . Uh, she's still busy. Why don't you wait here for a while? Have you eaten yet? "

Only then did I remember that my mom didn't like me coming to the restaurant. So I stood up and said, "My mom left me some food. I'm going home now. "

"Oh right, why are you crying and running over?"

"N-nothing. . . I'm just in a bad mood. " I quickly walked to the door and tried to put on a smile. "Goodbye, sisters!"

Without waiting for her to ask again, I quickly ran out of the hair salon.

On the way home, I was too engrossed in the school matters and didn't even know that I had walked the wrong path. It was only when a loud shout came from the other side that I was suddenly startled. I blankly raised my head and looked forward.

This is a hidden alley. At this time, few people passed by. About six or seven steps in front of me, a few socially-dressed young men with fashionable hairstyles were surrounding a boy wearing a high school uniform, punching and kicking.

I stood at the same spot, at a loss. The sound of fists hitting flesh, just listening to it makes me feel pain. As for the boy who was surrounded, even though the corners of his mouth and eyes are bleeding, he is still fighting with the other party like a mad beast.

He caught the yellow street light. I saw his face covered in blood. I stood where I was and didn't dare to move. Worry surged in my heart.

I wanted to shout loudly, "The police are here. " However, my throat was already hoarse from fear. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make a sound. All I could do was stand where I was.

Although the boy was brave and fierce, he quickly fell into a disadvantageous position. The other party punched him in the stomach, and he grunted and fell to the ground.

Only then did the group of excited youths notice me. However, it was obvious that I did not have any lethality. He only glanced at me before he and the other four people once again fiercely kicked the boy who had fallen to the ground a few times. They put on their hoods and left while cursing.

My legs have long since turned soft from fear. However, it seems that the boy who had fallen on the ground needs more help than me. I poked him: "Hey. . . You. . . "

The boy couldn't stand up, but he opened my hand: "Scram. "

What kind of person is this!

I stood up. Originally, I didn't want to bother with him. However, when I saw that the ground was filled with his blood, I still couldn't bear it. "Wait for me. "

As I spoke, I ran to a nearby pharmacy. When I brought the medicine back to the alley, there was no one on the ground, only a faint puddle of blood.

Thinking that since he had already left, there was nothing else for me to do. Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a shiny pendant in the corner.

I bent down and picked it up, only to discover that it was a photo. The woman in the photo smiled peacefully and gently, carrying a little boy in her arms.

This should have been left behind by that boy, right? I picked up the pendant and placed it in my pocket.

I didn't have a dream the whole night. It was just dawn when I woke up and went to school. My mother should have come back in the middle of the night and was currently sleeping on the sofa.

When I stood in front of the school gate, my heart was filled with a wave of coldness. When I thought about how I would meet that scum Zhang Anfeng in school, my heart became very heavy.

Just as I was in a dilemma, a creepy voice sounded beside my ear, "Bai Ruoyue. . . "

Before I could react, I was suddenly lifted up and my feet suddenly rose into the air.

Along with my scream, the person who was hugging me from behind suddenly made a 'Wu' sound.

The boy was Rong Fei, who had a good time playing with Zhang Anfeng. He let go of me and covered his nose as he moaned.

I turned around in shock and saw Zhang Anfeng looking at me with his arms crossed. His face revealed a gloating smile. "You've caused trouble. You're dead!"
