Chapter 2

"It's bad luck. Everyone downstairs must have gone to work at this point." Chen Bin was disappointed. There were about 8 people living in a three bedroom and one living room downstairs, all of whom were classmates or friends. After Chen Bin lived here, he had two contacts with them. Both of them asked them to help check the line if there was a problem with the router. The attic upstairs was originally the size of three bedrooms and one living room, but it was divided into two one bedroom households by the landlord and rented to Chen Bin and a couple respectively. In the opposite loft, a pair of mothers and sons from Jiangcheng rent it. Chen Bin hears the Jiangcheng dialect they usually speak, and often smells the aroma of hot and dry sesame sauce when passing through their doors. This makes Chen Bin Miss Jiangcheng very much.

With a fluke in mind, Chen Bin went down to the sixth floor and knocked on the door. There was no response in the room on the sixth floor. So Chen Bin returned to his room and tried to connect the wireless network. The WiFi is connected. It seems that the network cable is loose. Among the 8 people living downstairs, one couple has a pet dog. The reason why the network link was disconnected several times was that the dog touched the router and loosened the cable.

Suddenly, Chen Bin seemed to think of something and looked away from the computer screen.

"When I first knocked on the door, I didn't seem to hear the barking of the dog..."

Shaking his head, Chen Bin felt that he thought too much. The dog might have been sent away. Besides, whether the dog barks or not has nothing to do with him.

Chen Bin opened the web page and read the news. Several articles are about typhoons, and basically all are accident reports caused by typhoons. However, two pieces of news have attracted Chen Bin's attention. One is that since yesterday, the hospital has received more than 1000 people with different degrees of cold and fever symptoms. The news reminds the general public to take measures to prevent cold and other sudden diseases before and after the typhoon passes through the territory; The other is a public security incident, which occurred in Minhang District.

"I don't seem to have any cold medicine or anything." It was summer at this time. Chen Bin had loved ball games since primary school. Needless to say, he would go to the court to play ball almost every day. After coming to Songhu, Chen Bin often went to the stadium beside the community to show his skills. Chen Bin is very confident about his physical quality. Although he is only 1.72 meters tall, he has a solid weight of 140 kilograms.

Chen Bin opened the window. The rain had stopped outside. The air outside the window is not as fresh as usual after the rain. The air is mixed with gum odor and some unspeakable smell. There are many chemical plants in Zhangjiang, so the air quality has not been very good. Chen Bin didn't care much. He opened the window a little. Through the window, Chen Bin saw someone on the balcony on the 6th floor opposite. In my impression, there is a man and three girls living on the opposite floor. Chen Bin doesn't like peeping at others. But sometimes when he thinks of this, he can't help laughing in his heart that the man is a kind of Ma. Although he knows that the four people in the opposite room will not have such a chaotic relationship.

"It's good to have a sister, alas..." Chen Bin sighed. He thought that during his four years in college, in addition to studying, he also played basketball. In particular, he was crazy about badminton. In the two years from sophomore to junior year, Chen Bin was lucky to represent the school to participate in the Provincial Games. Apart from this, Chen Bin seems to have gained nothing from his college career. Chen Bin felt that his biggest regret in college was that he did not get love. Although there were girls he secretly loved, it was only because of the excellence of the other party that Chen Bin felt inferior. Therefore, he did not have the courage to express himself throughout his college career.

The girl Chen Bin secretly loves is Guo Lingling. She is in the same department as Chen Bin, but they are not in the same class. Chen Bin recalled that he first met Guo Lingling on the way to the Department to apply for a scholarship.

The sunny girl was beside her at that time. Suddenly she turned her head and asked herself, "are you Chen Bin from class 1? Can you teach me badminton? I'm from class 7. My name is Guo Lingling. It's the same time as your badminton class."

"OK..." Chen Bin's face was flushed, but he didn't know what to say except for a good word. His inner excitement made his brain short circuited. The feeling that had never appeared in 19 years made his heart surge. At this moment, Chen Bin finally understood what love at first sight is.

When she came out of the Department, looking at the back of Guo Lingling, who had just received the national first-class scholarship, Chen Bin, who had just been too excited to control himself, suddenly felt a lot better. I am only a second-class scholarship at the school level, which is due to the fact that badminton matches have added many credits.

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

"The gap..." Chen Bin returned to his bedroom dejectedly, not excited at all.

When several brothers in the bedroom saw Chen Bin coming back, Tao Lin came up and took Chen Bin's shoulder and said, "Congratulations, brother, you are the only one in our bedroom who won the scholarship. Anyway, you have to treat in the evening. You can't run away."

Li Guang looked at Chen Bin and found something wrong. He joked: "brother bin, what's wrong? Look at you like this. It's not money flying."

"It's estimated that you have a crush on a girl. Is it because she has a boyfriend? That's why brother bin is like this?" Sun Jie, known as the saint of love, smiled.

"Does Guo Lingling have a boyfriend?" Chen Bin, who had no love experience at all, was like a rookie. He was caught in the middle of something. As soon as he spoke, he was a red faced.

"Oh, my God, brother Jie, those girls of yours didn't read in vain. They're really hot eyed." Li Guang looked at Sun Jie admiringly. Sun Jie is a tall, rich and handsome girl in the class. She has a wide range of women. This is what Li Guang admires most. However, Li Guang himself is neither rich nor handsome, so he is only envious.

"Guo Lingling, it's not my dish." Sun Jie said, "this sister seems to have no boyfriend. Er, Tao Lin, you seem to be a fellow townsman with her."

"Guo Lingling's character is not bad. She used to be a classmate in high school." Tao Lin said, "it seems that brother Feng in our class is chasing her, but I don't think it's possible. How can Guo Lingling see brother Feng?"

After saying this, everyone laughed. Indeed, brother Feng is a wonderful flower among the boys in the class.

"Brother bin, you have a good eye. Hehe. If she were higher, I would have done it." Tao Lin teased Chen Bin.

"In the evening, let's go to the restaurant opposite the school to celebrate. It's my treat." Chen Bin won the scholarship, and also wanted to invite the brothers in the bedroom to have a meal. In addition, Tao Lin is Lingling's hometown and high school classmate. This relationship needs to be further improved

Chen Bin thought about the shadow in his heart. The girl and herself did not have much in common. Apart from taking care of her in badminton class, the relationship did not go any further. Later, it was said that Guo Lingling went to a large game company in Songhu for internship after graduation through the introduction of her tutor. Chen Bin does not deny that he came to Songhu because of Guo Lingling to some extent. However, Chen Bin does not hold much hope for this feeling, but rather puts it in his heart as a good memory.

"It's shameful to shrink a man." Chen Bin despised himself in his heart.

The girl on the opposite balcony seemed to see herself and was waving her arms to herself.

"What's wrong with you?" Chen Bin shouted to her, but he didn't have much impression on this beautiful girl Chen Bin, because he didn't always pay attention to the people opposite him. There are also many sisters in the Ma family, so Chen Bin only knew that it was a sister, but he was not impressed.

"Help me", the girl's voice was not loud, but her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was also crying. After a closer look at Chen Bin, she found that the girl's pale face was full of fear and tears.

This "save me" gave Chen Bin a great shock.

Chen Bin was about to ask the girl in the opposite building again when suddenly there was a knock on the door. Then the girl seemed to see something and curled up in the corner of the balcony in horror.

The balcony of the rental house is basically closed, so after the girl curls up in the corner, the wall under the balcony completely blocks the girl. There are closed windows on the balcony. One of the windows is open. It should have been opened by the girl before.

When Chen Bin returned to his room, he went out without much thought. From the building where Chen Bin lived to the opposite building, there was only a few tens of meters between them, so Chen Bin quickly appeared downstairs.

There was a police car parked downstairs. It was empty. Chen Bin looked up and did not know what was happening above. The girl asked Chen Bin to save her. There should be some danger. Thinking of this, Chen Bin rushed upstairs.

The staircase is very quiet. It should be because all the residents have gone to work. When he reached the third floor, the door of the room on the right side opened slightly. Chen Bin was worried and didn't notice that there were some reddish brown things on the ground and in the corner. If you look closely, you will find that it is the dried blood.

There was nothing moving in the slightly opened door, and Chen Bin did not meddle to help others lock the door. Running up to the sixth floor, the doors on both sides were half open. When Chen Bin passed by, he glanced at the room on the right and found that it was a mess.

"What's wrong? Are you going to move?" Chen Bin felt some doubts in his heart and then entered the room on the left.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Bin smelled a thick smell of blood. There was a large pool of blood on the ground, and there were many blood stains around. This made Chen Bin feel a little hairy.

The room was also a mess. There were some scratches on the imitation porcelain on the wall. The doors of the three small rooms next to the living room were all open. A sound of "wheezing" came from the room on the edge.

Chen Bin followed the sound and prepared to go to the room to have a look. At this time, the innermost door in Chen Bin's cabin was slightly opened. On the door was a small window inlaid with glass, and a head shrank behind the glass. At this time, the girl leaned out from behind the door, waved to Chen Bin and motioned him to pass.

Chen Bin walked over and was dragged in by the girl as soon as he reached the door. Then the door was quickly closed by the girl. Chen Bin saw that the girl in front of him was asking for help. Just as he was about to speak, the girl covered his mouth, made a "hush" gesture, and then crossed the metal clothes support bar beside the window sill and stuck it on the door.

The girl's face was full of fear, and her eyes were still covered with tears.
