"I don't care about my birthday." Lin Zhongchun shook his head, "Birthday may have special meaning to some people, but to me, it means nothing. So I don't care about my birthday."
The most important thing is that the birthday in this world is the birthday of the original owner, not hers. If she really had to choose a time to celebrate her birthday, she would choose the day when the original owner died, the first day she came to this world.
But this would be a bit disrespectful to the original owner.
Therefore, it is not as good as nothing.
Qi Xiaoyue's eyes looked worried. Could it be that Zhongchun's parents had never celebrated her birthday? It was so pitiful.
"'Zhongchun, I will definitely let you have an unforgettable birthday." Since she doesn't want to say it, then every day will be her birthday.
The carp rolled over, Qi Xiaoyue stood up, and ran out of the yard with such force that Lin Zhongchun, who was packing his things, was stunned.
"Xiaoyue, why are you going?"
"secret--"
"Secret?" Lin Zhongchun looked at her retreating back in confusion, and then chuckled twice.
Okay, keep it a secret.
Since she planned to give Lin Zhongchun an unforgettable birthday, she had to hurry up. On March 29th, she would go to Kyoto City with Sun Zhaozhou, so she had to finish the matter within today.
But what does Lin Zhongchun like?
Qi Xiaoyue was in trouble. She and Lin Zhongchun had known each other not long ago. Usually when they were together, it was to handle cases or investigate evidence, and they rarely had time to chat and talk about themselves.
At this moment, it was a big problem for her to think about what Lin Zhongchun liked.
"What scent sachet does the little girl like? Take a look, take a look." When Qi Xiaoyue passed by the stall, the boss immediately greeted her.
Qi Xiaoyue stopped and reached out to select the sachets on the stall. While selecting, she asked: "Do you have any scents?"
"Of course. I have all kinds of scents here. As long as I dare to say that I am the second sachet in Jindu City with the most complete scents, no one dares to say that he is the first." The boss is very fond of his belongings.
It was self-confidence, "But, my stall is too small and I can't put so much in it. If the girl likes something, I will go into the alley to get it for her."
"Are there any in the alley?" Qi Xiaoyue nodded thoughtfully, "Are there any that smell like marigolds?"
On the way here, Qi Xiaoyue carefully looked at the goods sold on both sides of the street.
At first, she planned to give Lin Zhongchun a hairpin, but she often ran up and down, and the hairpin would easily fall off if she carried it with her. It was better to give her something that could be carried with her and would not fall off easily.
By chance, she saw this stall selling sachets and thought Lin Zhongchun might like it.
"Yes!" The boss nodded, "I'll get it for you right away!"
The boss quickly walked into the alley, but within two minutes he came out with a sachet, "It smells of roses, right?"
Qi Xiaoyue shook her head: "No, it's Marigold."
The boss was stunned for a moment, then patted his head: "Calendula? Ah, yes, yes, yes, why did I remember it wrong. Little girl, please wait a little longer and I will look for you again."
Qi Xiaoyue: "Okay."
The boss walked in again holding the sachet he just took out, and walked out after a few minutes: "The rose one is right, right?"
"No." Qi Xiaoyue sighed, "Why don't you, boss, take me in to get it."
What's the matter with this boss? He can completely forget what the customer wants in just a few steps. If he continues to do business according to this, he must not exhaust the customer's patience?
Qi Xiaoyue was completely speechless about her boss's memory.
The boss nodded and walked into the alley while apologizing again and again: "I'm really sorry, little girl, I..."
"Well..." Qi Xiaoyue had just walked a few steps into the alley when she suddenly felt something behind her. Before she could turn her head to look, her mouth was immediately covered, making her unable to make a sound. Her fingers were moving randomly.
The other hand grabbed it, and then he lost consciousness.
Late at night, Lin Zhongchun put the things he had packed on the table and prepared to go to bed.
Just as she was about to blow out the candle, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the yard.
who?
Lin Zhongchun put on his coat and walked out. As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he frowned.
"Is Xiaoyue here with you?"
"Not here." Lin Zhongchun looked at the visitor. He was Qi Xiaoyue's brother and the wife of the 12th branch. She asked, "Xiaoyue left at noon. Isn't she resting in her room now?"
Her brother found her here in the middle of the night. Could it be that something happened to Xiaoyue?
Lin Zhongchun's heart was pounding, and he had an ominous premonition.
Qi Xiaoyue's brother shook his head, "No. I went to look for her at noon, but I thought she was in your yard. I just finished evening classes and was going to give her the food my mother entrusted me to give her.
She, she's still not there. I asked her classmates, and everyone said they hadn't seen her since the afternoon, and she didn't even go to her afternoon classes."
"Don't worry yet." Lin Zhongchun put on his coat, "I'll go look for her with you. Maybe she's resting in the house of another good friend I know."
Without even bothering to go into the house to get another piece of clothing, Lin Zhongchun and Qi Xiaoyue's brother went separate ways to look for Qi Xiaoyue.
Sun Zhaozhou's yard is close to Lin Zhongchun's. He has not been able to sleep well in the past few days because of the incident with the thirteenth princess, so when he hears sounds and hurried footsteps coming from Lin Zhongchun's yard, he runs immediately
Went out to see.
"What's wrong?" Sun Zhaozhou stopped Lin Zhongchun who was running past his yard, "Why are you looking so anxious? What happened?"
Lin Zhongchun's words were concise and to the point: "Xiaoyue is missing, please see if anyone can help us look for her!"
After saying that, she immediately ran towards Master Shen's yard. It was unrealistic for her to look for Master Shen alone. If she found Master Shen, she could also ask Master Shen to apply to the dean of Huating Academy and the guards of the academy for help.
Find someone.
The first person Sun Zhaozhou thought of was Gu Chen. Most of the military children in their sixth branch were investigating a person's whereabouts. Maybe Gu Chen could help.
Gu Chen was sleeping soundly when Sun Zhaozhou poured a basin of water on him to wake him up. When he wanted to get angry, Sun Zhaozhou immediately told him about Qi Xiaoyue's disappearance, suppressing his anger.
Gu Chen took a deep breath and suppressed the anger: "Why did you say it now?"
I don’t know how long it took for things to happen, but I’m talking about them now, and it’s hard to predict the dangerous changes!
Sun Zhaozhou shrugged: "I just knew it too!"
Within a quarter of an hour, the Huating Academy, which had been dimly lit by candlelight, was brightly lit again, and everyone was doing their part to find Qi Xiaoyue.
What was lost was not only a student of Huating Academy, but also the "family" of Huating Academy.
