It was just eight o'clock when we were about to arrive at Bob's Building, and the rush hour had not yet arrived.
Then Qin Jiaoxi received a call from her teacher in the taxi.
"Jiaoxi classmate, why did you not come to school today? Are you feeling unwell? Is anyone at home here?"
Quite suddenly, tears rolled out of Qin Jiaoxi's eyes.
"Teacher Zhou..." she choked and said, "I have to go, Teacher Zhou. I mean, I'm going back to Wanwan. Because the incident happened suddenly, I'm afraid I won't have time to say goodbye to my classmates!"
Teacher Zhou, the head teacher on the other end of the phone, was also shocked: "Ah? He's leaving now? So suddenly?"
It was obviously normal when I was in school yesterday, and there were no symptoms at all.
Now Qin Jiaoxi is still the representative of the Chinese class, and soon there will be a speech competition and she will be nominated to participate...
Although she knew that she would not take the senior high school entrance examination at school, she had been in school for a year and a half and everything was fine. This semester had only started for about twenty days, and she just left...
Qin Jiaoxi tried his best to calm down and said: "I'm already on my way. I just received the notice in the morning. So, classmates at school, please ask the teacher to say goodbye for me!"
Teacher Zhou said in a daze: "Okay, okay, oh, please let me slow down, class is about to start, can I call you later?"
After the call ended, Qin Jiaoxi took the time to send farewell messages to friends and classmates who had played well, and she actually felt a sense of regret about saying goodbye forever.
She suddenly exhaled and said to herself: "If you can regard death as such a difference in the future, maybe you won't be so regretful!"
The taxi driver was immediately startled: "Girl, don't be confused when you are young. There are beautiful things in this world waiting for you to discover, and there is no difference that you can't live with. Besides, even if you leave here, in the future
It’s not like there’s no chance to come back!”#@$&
After a pause: "Even if your parents don't let you come back, you will grow up. When you grow up, they won't be able to control you. Then you can go wherever you want, and so can your friends here."
See you soon!"
A warmth suddenly overflowed from her heart. Qin Jiaoxi raised her head and glanced at the kind uncle driver: "Thank you!"
If she had known that this world would be like this, it would be great if she could temporarily put down her obsession with going home and enjoy and have everything she has here.
But now there is really no room for regret.
Qin Jiaoxi paid the fare and got off the bus, and saw that Fang Zhuo and the others had packed their things and were waiting for her downstairs.%&(&
"Leave now?" she asked in shock.
Fang Zhuo and Lao Hu looked at each other and nodded in unison: "Yes, we must hurry up. This coordinate node is very strange. It was the most difficult to determine from the beginning. It was previously expected to be between 18 and 22 months. Later,
Suddenly it became 26 months, and the results hadn’t been stable for long, and suddenly they appeared early again..."
Han Jin came over with the instrument in his arms: "So Mr. Bo is very worried that it will disappear suddenly, and the next time it appears, it will have to wait another two or three years."
Bo Jiming followed him, holding large and small bags with a bunch of things, and joked: "Why don't you leave?"
"Actually, you see, our place is pretty good..."
Qin Jiaoxi quickly shook her head: "No, my parents will be very worried about me..."
Bo Jiming shrugged: "Then get in the car quickly and try to seize the opportunity this time!"
…
Along the way, Lao Hu sighed: "What can I do? How can I explain to Qianqian that you are gone?"
"It's all my fault, Mr. Bo, for saying he couldn't reveal your situation. Qianqian never knew you were leaving like this..."
Fang Zhuo consoled him: "Then let's just say she has returned to Wanwan. Anyway, it will be difficult for everyone in a short time. When we are completely open, her emotions will fade away. No matter how hard you try to get her to have a baby, there will be nothing left."
Too much time to worry about others?"
Lao Hu: "..."
Bo Jiming: "..."
This time, several people did not pass by the scenic spot hotel. In order to rush for time, they drove the commercial vehicle directly to the entrance of the forest.
Lao Hu and Han Jin jumped out of the car immediately and started using instruments to detect whether there were any discrepancies in the coordinates.
Fang Zhuo stood by and wiped his sweat: "It seems that our speed is fast enough. Nothing has changed. It should be fine."
Qin Jiaoxi clenched her fists nervously: "Is it still near the place where you met me before?"
Bo Jiming squinted his eyes: "It should be moving a little to the north. If we hurry up and get there, we should be able to arrive within an hour!"
After a pause, he added: "Don't be afraid, I will send you there myself!"
Qin Jiaoxi took a deep breath: "How much can I bring? Is it still not more than one kilogram like you?"
Bo Jiming pursed his lips and thought for a while: "To be on the safe side, let's stick to this number, but you don't have to bring food - didn't you say it's not far from your home?"
Qin Jiaoxi nodded, turned around and took out a few small gifts that he wanted to take away from his bag.
In addition to the tourmaline on her wrist, there was also a watch given to her by Kou Zhun, and a pair of deerskin gloves that Yue Qian specially asked someone to customize for her last winter. They were so soft and comfortable that she couldn't bear to throw them away.
Finally, there are the birthday photos that Kou Zhun took of her with Polaroids the night before, as well as the photos he took with his classmates at school in the past two years.
Bo Jiming looked at her looking through the photos and felt slightly astringent.
He could feel that the little girl had already developed some emotions towards this world, but he understood better that she had to go back.
"Are you sure you just want to bring these things? Or maybe a bottle of water?"
Qin Jiaoxi shook his head firmly: "No, these are enough!"
Although she is not overweight, if she returns to the forest, it will still be the dense forest of the Valley of Miracle Doctors, and she will most likely have to face various wild beasts. By then, she will have no space and can only save her life. Taking anything else with her when escaping will be a burden.
Thinking of this, Qin Jiaoxi opened the compressed biscuits he brought in his bag and ate it. He drank half a bottle of water before looking at Bo Jiming.
"What can I do next to ensure that I can follow your rules and step into the coordinate node without going to the wrong place?"
Bo Jiming reached out and took her hand: "Let's go, follow my footsteps."
The two of them walked hand in hand for about seven or eight meters in the direction pointed by Han Jinqi. Bo Jiming suddenly stopped and said, "Take a deep breath first, then hold your breath, follow my steps, and walk forward in a zigzag pattern."
One meter.”
"Don't breathe next, hold back your last breath and walk half a meter forward in small steps."
As he spoke, he took the lead in demonstrating and walked forward, Qin Jiaoxi quickly followed behind him.
After walking these few steps, Bo Jiming stopped and looked around, a little puzzled: "Huh? Why doesn't there seem to be any change?"
"Could it be that the pattern displayed by the instrument is not Z but S?"
He thought for a while: "Jiao Xi, please wait for a while, and I'll take another step to see if it's okay."
