Start with a rent-collecting magical girl

Liao Baiyu was warmly entertained at Han Xiaoyue's house.

The aunt cooked a large table of sumptuous dishes for herself. During the meal, Professor Han discussed a lot of relevant knowledge about drama creation with him, and the drama element of "magical girl" was inevitably mentioned.

Two grown men who are passionate about "magical girls" chatted for several rounds, each expressing his or her own opinions. Not to mention, Professor Han's understanding of magical girls is indeed unique. For example, he also pointed out the most important aspects of magical girls. The most important force - mind

Later, Professor Han, who was in high spirits, wanted to open a bottle of Erguotou and have a drink with him to cheer him up, but Auntie and Han Xiaoyue quickly stopped him, and that was the end.

Anyway.

By the time Liao Baiyu came out of Xiaoyue's house, took a taxi and returned to the rental apartment, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

As soon as he got off the car and walked downstairs, Liao Baiyu looked up habitually.

You can see your own floor from here.

Can.

Liao Baiyu frowned.

Because all I could see in the direction of my house was pitch black.

This is very strange.

According to Xu Jiajia's temperament, as long as she didn't come back, she would always leave a lamp for herself in the living room.

According to the girl herself, this way she feels like "going home".

Xu Jiajia was disgusted. After opening the door to the house, it was dark and silent.

Liao Baiyu walked upstairs quickly.

After taking the key and opening the door, sure enough, he was greeted by a dark and silent room.

He came to Xu Jiajia's room.

The door of the girl's room was ajar. After Liao Baiyu pushed the door open and turned on the light, he could see that the bed was empty except for the schoolbag that the girl seemed to have left casually.

At this point, he still hasn’t come back and hasn’t contacted himself.

Liao Baiyu checked his cell phone, which had no new messages. He was sure that something had happened to Xu Jiajia.

But judging from other details of the room.

It probably wasn't that there was an intruder, but that the girl left in a hurry.

in addition.

Is Xu Jiajia’s bedside lamp broken long ago?

When Liao Baiyu first came in and turned on the light, he wanted to press it, but found that it didn't light up several times, as if the filament was burned.

Never mind that for now.

He immediately turned back to his room to get his computer.

The importance of Xu Jiajia to him now is self-evident. Just because he spends a lot of energy on the girl, Liao Baiyu will never allow anything to happen to the girl.

but.

There's no point in being anxious.

Liao Baiyu is now extremely calm.

He wouldn't go so far as to install surveillance in the girl's room.

So now Liao Baiyu retrieved the surveillance video of this apartment and its surroundings.

The apartment is in a very upscale community.

All monitoring is very complete.

There are basically no dead ends.

In addition, Xu Jiajia himself had no awareness of this precaution at all. Liao Baiyu calculated the time and easily found the scene of the girl at that time.

I saw that Xu Jiajia, who was under surveillance, went out eagerly just a few minutes after returning home. This can be seen from the fact that the girl did not even change her school uniform.

But Liao Baiyu zoomed in on the camera and analyzed the girl's expression. It was not difficult to see that the eagerness here did not seem like something was in danger, but more...

What does excitement and excitement mean?

After Liao Baiyu felt a little relieved, he continued to look back at the surveillance camera.

Xu Jiajia passed two or three blocks after leaving the apartment.

These paths were all captured on street surveillance.

Now Liao Baiyu must be lucky that Xu Jiajia has no awareness of "anti-reconnaissance".

You can't blame the girl.

After all, Xu Jiajia is just a person who accidentally obtained extraordinary powers, but is still an ordinary girl at heart.

So far.

By analyzing the scenes of the girl's journey.

Liao Baiyu can come to a conclusion.

Xu Jiajia is like...

What to look for.

Whenever she is at an intersection, the girl always looks around. Then, as if she has received some guidance, she immediately takes action and continues to move firmly.

During this period, the girl did not answer the phone or wear headphones. Liao Baiyu was also sure that there was nothing around that could prompt guidance based on the girl's signals.

unless

This kind of guidance that Xu Jiajia is looking for is something that "ordinary people" like him cannot see.

Liao Baiyu analyzed this.

I already have a rough guess in my mind.

He finally looked towards the destination where the girl disappeared.

Kane Building.

The information about this building was quickly retrieved by Liao Baiyu, including the group behind it, the contractors at the time, the companies in the office building, etc.

I don't see any problems yet.

If you have to say it.

The building was under construction on the top rooftop two or three months ago, but it has been shelved since the funding chain was cut off. Basically, no one would go there.

In other words

If Xu Jiajia meets someone here, it will be very hidden and no one will know.

"Didi. Sorry, no one answered the number you dialed, please."

"Didi. Sorry, you dialed."

"Didi. Sorry"

"."

"Bai, Bai Yu, I'm sorry for making you worry, I'll..." Liao Baiyu's never-ending call was finally connected, and Xu Jiajia's low and frustrated apology came from the other side.

The boy didn't ask any more questions, that was the first thing he said.

"Are you safe now?"

"I'm fine, really Bai Yu, don't worry, it's just, yes."

Just when Xu Jiajia was about to say something more, she was interrupted by Liao Baiyu.

The boy on the other side of the phone said the second sentence was equally simple.

"wait for me."

wait for me?

Just as Xu Jiajia was about to say something, a busy tone came from the other end of the phone.

Xu Jiajia was sitting under an artificial lake bridge in a park, with confusion on her face.

Does Liao Baiyu mean to stay where he is and wait for him to come over?

But

He hasn't even asked where he is?

Xu Jiajia is currently soaking in the lake under the bridge.

Do not misunderstand.

Although the girl was indeed hit hard by the "senior", it was not to the point where she would die and drown herself.

As a water magic girl, for Xu Jiajia, being in a place with water allows her to calm down, reflect on her heart, and review everything her predecessors have taught her.

That's it in a nutshell.

She is sinking at the bottom of the lake.

Autistic.

After being awakened by Liao Baiyu's call, Xu Jiajia quickly surfaced from the water and was about to sneak ashore from under the bridge, but unexpectedly...

thump!

There was only a sound of water splashing, and then, a boy jumped off the bridge at night, and then swam hard in his own direction, with a face full of anxiety.

Liao. Liao Baiyu! ?

Xu Jiajia was stunned for a moment. Then she saw that the boy didn't seem to know how to swim. He looked very clumsy. He was about to sink to the bottom before her by a few meters. The girl couldn't keep looking.

She quickly activated her abilities quietly, dragged and pulled her, and finally successfully rescued Liao Baiyu, who was almost drowning, back under the bridge.
