Invade the World

  Chapter 131 Family of Three

  The reason why Xu Xiangyang wants to make the next week's agreement in front of the two girls is that he hopes to cut off his "backward path" in this way, and can no longer have the illusion that "the matter can continue to be delayed".

  If he still fails to fulfill his promise in the end, more than Qingyue will be the person who will be asking questions at that time, and Xingjie, who is curious, will definitely not help asking.

  He can barely resist the pressure of the squad leader alone, but coupled with the question from another party, he will inevitably choose to raise his hands and surrender, revealing his true thoughts.

  If you can figure out what you think of Xingjie by your own will, and you are determined to speak actively, this is of course the most responsible performance; but if you can’t, just give up resistance.

  In this spare time, he hopes to clarify the truth behind the suicide incident of Guo Zixuan.

  If the final result has nothing to do with the supernatural, then let it go, and the only thing left to face is your own business;

  If it is relevant... Xu Xiangyang will not say that the three of them must solve it by themselves, but he will definitely find the opportunity to tell Meng Zheng about this matter.

  Actually, under the reminder of the squad leader, Xu Xiangyang realized that he still had questions to ask and something to say to this person.

  ……

  Three days passed after the suspension of classes, and the bell from the head teacher did not ring again.

In the past few days, Xu Xiangyang has spent considerable thoughts on the suicide incident. He and Zhu Qingyue have talked on the phone several times, and with the help of Xingjie, he sneaked into the classroom that was sealed as the suicide scene. I want to find clues through my own psychic abilities, but I have never gained anything.

  Of course, he did not give up his student status because of a suspected supernatural incident, and continued to live a life of serious study at home and living under the same roof with Lin Xingjie as before.

In the past, he had never noticed—or rather, he subconsciously suppressed his instincts and ignored certain facts: he himself was a high school male student who was in his adolescence, ignorant, impulsive, and prone to cranky thinking; while Lin Xingjie was Girls who are very attractive to men with healthy physical development.

He has been constantly emphasizing his identity as a good student and as a friend; he hopes that he will help her only out of a sense of justice, out of friendship, and agreements made with each other, not just because Seeing that she was a beautiful girl, he approached her with dirty thoughts.

In this era of relatively conservative social atmosphere, the "sex" between men and women is a mysterious and tempting topic; but most importantly, it is a taboo for good children like Xu Xiangyang. It is ashamed to talk, ashamed to speak out.

  However, when Xu Xiangyang was questioned by Zhu Qingyue and realized that he might have feelings for Xing Jie that surpassed her friends, a topic that was once blind to Xing Jie, now has to take the initiative to face it.

  He can study, is smart, has a strong thirst for knowledge, coupled with family factors, is more mature than the average peers, so Xu Xiangyang is by no means completely unknown about matters between men and women.

  After studying, his greatest pleasure and way to relax himself is to watch the discs. Almost every weekend, he goes to the nearby disc rental store to see if there are any new good movies.

Xu Xiangyang knows that in the innermost row of shelves in that store, there is a row of pirated discs at the bottom. The covers on the top are all similar to men’s and women’s ears and temples, or women with large areas of exposed skin, etc. People see the blushing picture.

  Furthermore, Xu Xiangyang also occasionally heard other old customers talk about it, it is said that the owner of the disc store still puts it in the box under the shelf, that is the real "good thing".

  When that person was talking about this, the whole person was dancing with joy, Xu Xiangyang still remembered.

  It was a world that he had never been in contact with when he was young. Every time he chooses discs in the shop on the wall, he will deliberately prevent his eyes from staying on the row of shelves, treating it like a scourge, as if the horror placed over there will make people watch nightmares. The same.

  But if he said that in the dead of night, he never thought of "I might as well find a chance to try"... it would be a lie.

Xu Xiangyang is quite self-aware, knowing that if he has a few male high school friends of the same age, they will talk about this topic sooner or later. Sooner or later he can't help but bring it up, and then under the influence of his friends, Sooner or later, I will find a way to lend it out.

  It's just that his two closest friends are girls now, so this doesn't happen.

In addition, there is an old book stand under the flyover. There are often various pornographic books and periodicals. For example, under the banner of the sequel of famous martial arts novels or rumor, they are actually dirty content; there are also various large-scale pictures. A magazine that attracts readers’ attention with photos and **** articles by unknown authors...

  The desire of men and women is natural and logical. No matter how conservative the atmosphere of a society, mainstream speakers will denounce it as an unbearable thing. Similar works are hard to stop.

It’s just that Xu Xiangyang’s self-control is relatively strong. He has his own goals. He is afraid that he will be addicted to it and receive moral education from the society and school, so that he tries to restrain himself from contacting this aspect. When she got along under the same roof, he still followed this logic.

  On the night when the Games ended, Xu Xiangyang was so flustered because this logic was broken, and what he had to face was an unprecedented self.

  Fortunately, after these few days, he gradually started to get used to it.

  He learned to maintain a calm mind. When he was with Xingjie, he would not blush and be embarrassed as he did a few days ago, but the stone on Xu Xiangyang’s heart never fell.

  The kind of...a bit bad thoughts that Xingjie had had, on the contrary, made him feel suspicious of himself.

  After torturing himself repeatedly, Xu Xiangyang's true thoughts slowly became clear, just like when the tide receded, the dark rock was exposed.

  He started to have confidence in the appointment of the week. He felt that he could truly confirm the emotions and thoughts in his heart, and the day when he stood in front of Lin Xingjie and spoke upright...really is coming soon.

  And before that, there is one more happy thing that happened:

  That is Li Qinglian is about to go home.

  Furthermore, according to my sister, this time I am not coming back to sleep for a while and leaving the next day, staying in a hurry like a hotel, but I will relax and rest for a while.

  On the day after he learned of the suicide incident, Li Qinglian called and said that she had solved the trouble at hand and would take vacations these days, which is to make up for the time that was not taken during Labor Day.

  Xu Xiangyang is very happy about this.

  Since last year, the sister who was originally a workaholic in her attitude seems to be getting worse.

  For most of the past semester, Li Qinglian has been busy with work. Every time she came back to rest for no more than one or two days, she would be called away by a phone call during the break, just like when she was about to send the monitor home last time.

  This kind of life cannot be sustained for a long time, and it is easy to get sick from overwork.

  Although Li Qinglian is still very young and capable of working, she is not an iron man. She always demands herself too harshly. Sooner or later, there will be times when she cannot bear to fall.

  Xu Xiangyang is very worried, he is afraid that this day will really come.

  In fact, it is not the first time that he has persuaded his sister to take a break, but Li Qinglian will only answer such things as “the work during the recent period is very important to her, and there is no way to let it go”.

  The relationship between Li Qinglian and Xu Xiangyang’s siblings is different from that of relatives in other families, and is closer to a kind of equal friend; but she is Xu Xiangyang’s guardian after all, and what she really decides with her own thoughts is difficult for a teenager to change.

  Xu Xiangyang can only shut up.

  This time, the busy sister can finally have a relatively long vacation. Of course he is very happy.

  Furthermore, it is one aspect that my sister can come back. This time I am still with Lin Xingjie. If this "family of three" state can be maintained longer, it should be something else to have fun.

  Xu Xiangyang found that this small home gradually began to feel like a lively life; the life of always being alone, studying in the room alone, seems to have become a long time in the past.

  In short, the days passed steadily, even though the stone did not fall to the ground, Xu Xiangyang's heart slowly let go.

  *

  The night that Sister Lian came back.

  As agreed, Li Qinglian in a police uniform opened the door, carrying a big bag in her hand, and shouting at the teenagers and girls in the living room with a smile on her face:

   "I'm back."

"welcome."

  The long-awaited Xu Xiangyang hurried forward and took the bag in her hand.

  "When I came back, I went to the food market and bought a big fresh fish, as well as freshly cut meat. I want to make a richer dinner today."

  Li Qinglian looked at Lin Xingjie, who was standing behind her younger brother, and said with a smile.

  "Since Xingjie came into our house, it seems that he hasn't welcomed him once, right? I'll make up this time and have a welcome banquet."

  "I, I don't need it..."

  The long-haired girl waved her hand quickly, her face flushed.

"no problem."

  Xu Xiangyang promised, he lifted the bag and looked inside, and couldn't help but scream.

  There are fish and meat. It is indeed very rich. Even if three people let go of their belly, they can make a few meals.

   "I feel that this dish is better than the festive season."

  "I rarely have time to go home and rest, which is equivalent to a holiday."

  Li Qinglian lifted the ponytail that had fallen to her shoulders, took off her dirty boots and exposed her legs wrapped in stockings, and replied with a smile.

   "Do you still know?"

  Xu Xiangyang widened his eyes and said half-jokingly.

   "It's OK, and still learning to joke with my sister? Go away."

  That said, Li Qinglian is actually a bit embarrassed. Of course she knew that she could be considered irresponsible as a guardian. If it weren't for Xu Xiangyang to be a good child with strong self-control, she really didn't know what would become; or it was precisely because the child was sufficiently self-disciplined. Give her a wayward space.

  But now...

  Li Qinglian glanced at the long and straight black girl who was standing next to Xu Xiangyang, her expression still a little awkward, and the smile on her face was even worse.

  With this girl to accompany him, now there is no need to worry that Xiao Yang will feel lonely alone.

It's just that there are other things worth worrying about... Although she trusts her brother very much and thinks Xu Xiangyang knows it well, young people are still prone to impulsiveness and will wipe their guns if they can't restrain themselves. Fire escape.

Then try again, she thought, anyway, she will stay together for a few days, what really happened between the two children, she must be able to tell some clues, Li Qinglian is still quite confident about her professional level. of.

   Seeing her sister pretending to be impatient and waved to him, Xu Xiangyang stopped talking, and handed over the slippers she had prepared next to her.

   "Then, I took these boots."

  He held the bag in one hand and the leather boots that Li Qinglian had taken off in the other.

   "Well, I ran several places recently and it was a bit dirty. Don't touch it."

"fine."

  It doesn’t matter if it is dirty, Xu Xiangyang thought, it’s just that the smell is really a bit big...This is a matter of course, the leather boots are already tightly closed, and sister Lian’s working conditions can’t be cleaned and kept clean every day.

  However, this level is not a problem at all. He used to be sick and when he got up in the middle of the night and vomited, his sister was taking care of him meticulously.

  The so-called relatives are actually this kind of relationship that can tolerate each other's unbearable side.

   "I put the dishes in."

   Lin Xingjie hurried over and took the plastic bag in his hand.

  "Do you want to help?"

  Li Qinglian asked loudly behind him.

   "You better go and rest."

  Xu Xiangyang turned his head and said to her sister:

   "By the way, Sister Lian, Xingjie has sorted out your bed."

  Li Qinglian looked at Lin Xingjie, only to see the Rapunzel smile at her a little shyly, and hid in the kitchen with vegetables.

  Li Qinglian originally lived in the room alone, because she was away from home all the year round, and later gave it to Xingjie; now that Sister Lian comes back, naturally she wants to live with two people.

  Fortunately, the bedroom is quite spacious, and the two women, one large and one small, are not the type that requires high living conditions.

  ……

  Xu Xiangyang went back to the living room after drying out the washed boots.

  Although she is on a rare vacation, her sister may be called away by her superiors, so she needs to wash and dry boots that are easy to move as soon as possible.

  He looked around the house and found that his sister was not resting on the sofa, she probably went back to the room.

   Lin Xingjie, who was wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen, her wet hands were too late to wipe, and she grabbed him.

  "Hey, Xiangyang, I found one thing."

  The girl deliberately lowered her voice and said mysteriously.

"Ok?"

  She pointed to the sofa. Xu Xiangyang looked in the direction of the girl's fingertips and found that it was Sister Lian's briefcase.

   "I was just about to pick up and put it away for Sister Lian, but I saw a document. I only glanced at it, but looking at the title, it seemed to be an investigation report on Guo Zixuan."

   Lin Xingjie suggested in a low voice.

   "How about...Shall we find a chance to take a peek?"
