Ma Xiaomin's two companions immediately recounted the whole incident to her, causing cold sweat to run down her face. Could it be that she had really come into contact with something unclean?
At this moment, the police officer walked over and asked, "Miss Ma, are you alright? Should I arrange for someone to take you back to school?"
Ma Xiaomin looked up at him, then glanced at Wu Xiaoyu and his group who were being questioned. She replied, "I'm fine! Those people are my classmates, we can go back together!"
The police then rounded up several delinquents and drove off with a roar. Just as they turned the corner, the car stopped. The officer told the two young policemen,
"You two follow them secretly, make sure they enter the school before you come back. If anything else happens, you'll be the ones I'll hold accountable!"
After sending the police away, Ma Xiaoming immediately approached Wu Xiaoyu and nervously asked, "What did you mean when you said my forehead was dark in the evening?"
Given the recent commotion and the strange events over the past few days, Ma Xiaomin couldn't help but suspect that something bad had attached itself to her.
Although Wu Xiaoyu had seen the thing entangled with Ma Xiaomin, not knowing how to deal with it, he naturally didn't try to act brave. He smiled and said, "I was just babbling, you actually took it seriously?"
The bad girl supported Ma Xiaomin, saying, "I knew he was just trying to scare us!"
Another girl, however, said, "But, the way little Min looked just now was clearly..." She was cut off by the bad girl.
"Look at him, does he seem like some expert? Even if there is something, he's just making wild guesses!"
Zhou Dong, also somewhat skeptical, stared at Wu Xiaoyu for a while and hesitantly asked, "Xiaoyu, were you really just talking nonsense?"
Wu Xiaoyu pulled him aside and whispered, "I wasn't completely talking nonsense in the evening..."
"There really is something unclean on her, but I really can't deal with catching ghosts and exorcising demons!"
Hearing this, Zhou Dong helplessly told Ma Xiaoming, "He really can't help you. Why don't we take you home first? Maybe your dad can find someone to take a look at it."
After such an incident, Ma Xiaomin naturally didn't want to go back to school, so the group had to escort her home.
On the way, Wu Xiaoyu felt like someone was following him. Coupled with the fact that the police had met Ma Xiaomin but hadn't brought them back to the station for questioning, he realized this girl must come from a family with influence.
Sure enough, they arrived at the gate of the county committee's compound and stopped. Ma Xiaomin said a few things quietly to the other girls before going inside.
Zhou Dong and Mao Shanxin still needed to escort two other girls back; Wu Xiaoyu had to say goodbye to them and find a hostel to stay for the night.
Although he now had a considerable amount of money in his hands, he was still reluctant to stay in a star-rated hotel, so he walked into a cheaper hostel.
The hostess, a woman in her fifties, saw him alone and asked, "Just you?"
Wu Xiaoyu nodded and handed her his ID. As she registered his details, she said, "It's late, you can't bring anyone to your room. If you bring a girlfriend, she should also register. There's nothing embarrassing about it!"
After registering, the hostess took the key and asked again, "Are you really alone? I've seen many high school students like you, nothing to be shy about!"
Wu Xiaoyu smiled wryly, "Auntie, I really am alone, I don't even have a girlfriend yet?"
A small dog in the hostel cooperatively barked a few times, making the auntie laugh as she handed him the key.
As soon as he got to the second floor, he could vaguely hear all kinds of intimate noises. Damn it! The soundproofing here is really bad!
As he was opening the door, two young figures walked down the corridor. Wu Xiaoyu couldn't help but glance at them, the girl blushed and looked down, while the boy glared at him.
Wu Xiaoyu laughed, opened the door, and went in. After a long day and a lot of walking, he was indeed tired. He took a quick shower and then lay down on the bed to sleep.
But the air conditioner in this shabby hostel didn't seem to work well. Although it was set to eighteen degrees, the room was still very stuffy. Wu Xiaoyu had no choice but to open the window for ventilation.
"..."
All kinds of indecent words floated in with the wind, making Wu Xiaoyu even more irritable. Damn this, it's more slutty than Mrs. Zhao!
Really, you get what you pay for! This fifty-yuan-a-night hostel's soundproofing is too terrible. How is a person who just wants to sleep supposed to rest with all the noise?
While he was complaining, Wu Xiaoyu suddenly felt that the woman's voice sounded familiar. He walked to the window and listened carefully, then suddenly realized, hitting his own head.
"Damn it! So it's her! I thought the voice was familiar – I just heard it this afternoon!"
As he despised her actions, he heard her shout, "Master, what am I supposed to do now that I've lost my job?"
A rough male voice responded, "With me here, you don't need to worry about money! As long as you serve me well, I'll bring you gold and silver mountains!"
Sigh! It's both shameful and pathetic! Wu Xiaoyu sighed, intending to close the window. But something was stuck, and he couldn't close it.
Damn it! Could it get any worse? How can I sleep with all this noise? Wu Xiaoyu stuck his head out to see what was blocking the window.
Coincidentally, the "battlefield" in the next room was right by the window. As soon as Wu Xiaoyu stuck his head out, he saw Qin Can leaning out of the window, showing half her face.
In her daze, Qin Can saw Wu Xiaoyu staring at her in shock. She quickly pulled her head back, shame rapidly filling her heart.
This shame naturally turned into hatred towards Wu Xiaoyu. What was he doing next to her? Had he followed her, intentionally to see her embarrassed?
As she was cursing Wu Xiaoyu, the man behind slapped her, saying, "Stay still!" Her head popped out of the window again, fortunately, Wu Xiaoyu's head had disappeared.
Wu Xiaoyu closed the window, his heart unable to calm down. Damn it! Really, the things you see when you live long enough! Coming to the city just to sell some jade, encountering so many bizarre things, even his pure soul got tainted. What a loss!
