"Don't be so anxious, isn't there someone here?"
Xie Chen looked at the somewhat dull old man and pointed at Jiang Wanqiao in front of him.
When Jiang Wanqiao saw Xie Chen say these incomprehensible words, she couldn't help but feel that something was abnormal.
"What nonsense are you talking about again?"
"It's just the two of us, how can there be anyone else?"
"Besides, I'm talking about your feet, don't take it that far."
Xie Chen looked at Jiang Wanqiao who looked angry, and then glanced at the old man next to him.
I don’t know how to explain in front of these two people.
"Young man, please take me to the bathroom quickly. Don't stand here stupidly."
The old man's eyes were a little blurred, he looked ahead in a daze, and said rigidly without looking back.
Seeing that something was wrong with him, Xie Chen responded with a cold sweat: "Okay, old man, please wait a moment, and I will take a look."
The confusion on Jiang Wanqiao's face became even more obvious.
"Xiechen."
"What on earth are you talking about! What old man?"
How could Xie Chen still have time to care about her? He supported the old man and walked towards the bathroom not far ahead.
But because of the old man's poor legs and feet, walking on such a short stretch of road was still stumbling.
After finally reaching the bathroom, a familiar voice came from behind Xie Chen.
"Xiechen?"
"Aren't you injured? Why did you still walk such a long way down?"
Luo Xi, wearing work clothes and holding a broom in his hand, came over shortly after.
Xie Chen hurriedly turned around and looked at Luo Xi who appeared behind him, with an impatient look on his face.
There is more than one Luo Xi.
Jiang Wanqiao, who had not explained clearly just now, also followed over at this time.
These two women are not easy to deal with at all now.
However, for Xie Chen, it is not particularly difficult. As long as Luo Guyu does not appear, he can still cope with it.
The two women just looked at each other. They seemed to be a little uncomfortable with each other, but they didn't show it clearly.
"Dare you ignore me?"
"What kind of peace of mind do you have?!"
Jiang Wanqiao came to Xie Chen's side with her hands on her hips and an angry look on her face.
Luo Xi, who originally wanted to speak, immediately chose to shut up when he saw the attitude of these two people.
Xie Chen did not directly answer her, but moved and sent the old man into the toilet.
"go in."
Xie Chen put his mouth close to the old man's ear and said something very scornfully. Only he and the old man could hear it.
The old man's body finally made some movement. He reluctantly turned his head to look at Xie Chen and nodded slightly.
He put his hands behind his back and walked slowly into the bathroom.
Seeing that nothing unusual happened to him, Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, from the beginning, as time went by, I became more and more aware that something was wrong with the old man.
Although I don't have that many worries, if there is a problem with the old man, the next clue will be cut off.
That is definitely bad news for yourself.
"What are you doing so crazy this morning?"
Jiang Wanqiao couldn't bear it any longer, so she came over and pushed Xie Chen and shouted impatiently.
After sending the old man to the bathroom, Xie Chen was finally free and had time to deal with Jiang Wanqiao, who had been clinging to his side.
Xie Chen pointed to the bathroom in front of him and asked Jiang Wanqiao, "Didn't you see anyone?"
Jiang Wanqiao followed the direction of Xiechen's finger and looked at the bathroom nearby.
"Where is anyone?"
"Aren't you the only one from now on? Are you asleep?"
Xie Chen rubbed the back of his head and turned to look at Luo Xi behind him.
The latter had a calm look on his face, as if it didn't matter what he was doing.
Xie Chen looked around and found no trace of Luo Guyu, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although seeing her probably wouldn't have much impact other than embarrassment in broad daylight.
But it’s better not to see it.
"Then I guess I made a mistake."
Xie Chen pretended to yawn and reluctantly responded to Jiang Wanqiao's questioning.
Jiang Wanqiao frowned slightly.
She was not a fool herself, so she could naturally tell that Xie Chen was just perfunctory with her words.
But when I thought of Luo Xi beside me, no matter how many questions I had in my mind, I just swallowed them first.
"Forget it, forget it, as long as you're fine."
"As a lifeguard of our swimming pool, even if you are an employee, I will ensure your life safety."
Jiang Wanqiao crossed his hands on his chest and said seriously.
Xie Chen pursed his lips.
In fact, he was suppressing a smile.
Jiang Wanqiao's words were obviously just to excuse himself in front of Luo Xi, and they sounded very forced.
"You should take good care of yourself."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Wanqiao walked straight back to the platform without any intention of delaying any longer.
Luo Xi glanced at Jiang Wanqiao's voice, stretched out in boredom, and then looked at Xie Chen.
The two looked at each other, and the latter received an eye roll.
Xie Chen looked at Luo Xi with an innocent face, a little confused about her moody character.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"If you have nothing to do, don't ask for leave blindly. If you can work well, then work hard."
Xie Chen looked embarrassed. He didn't know how to explain this situation to her clearly.
"this……"
"This is a bit hard to say."
Xie Chen hesitated and hesitated, and his answer was a bit erroneous.
Anyway, I don't want to focus on Luo Xi now. I can deal with it how I want. What matters is being able to handle it well.
As Xie Chen spoke, he turned to look at the bathroom door.
I was afraid that the old man would leave quietly after using the bathroom.
It's been almost two or three minutes since I went in, and I guess I'll be out soon.
Luo Xi was naturally aware of Xiechen's absent-minded look and couldn't help but give him a fierce look.
Xiechen, you bury your heads lower, so basically you can only see your toes.
Seeing Xie Chen's appearance.
Luo Xi couldn't help but snorted, and then left with the mop in one hand, paying no attention to Xie Chen's intention.
Xie Chen couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
For a woman with Luo Xi's personality, she probably doesn't know how to backstab her behind her back.
"well……"
But I can't understand the girl's thoughts at all.
For the current plan, it is better to take care of the old man first, and everything else must be put aside first.
Xie Chen turned around and was about to walk into the bathroom.
But what followed into his ears were waves of subtle sobbing sounds.
"who?"
Xie Chen suddenly had such a question in his mind, and immediately ran towards the bathroom.
As the soles come into contact with the ground.
The sound from the slightly stronger foot echoed in this small space.
The sobbing sound obviously paused, so it was probably not an auditory hallucination.
Xie Chen opened the first compartment first, but there was no one inside.
Now Xie Chen immediately set his sights on the remaining compartments.
But at such a close distance, the sobbing sound still came from the second compartment.
Xie Chen's heart skipped a beat, fearing that something might happen to the old man in the bathroom.
"Uncle, are you okay?"
For me, the sudden appearance of this old man is like bringing him a key to breaking the situation, and he must firmly grasp it.
But even when he spoke, his voice was not too quiet.
But only the sound of sobbing came from the second compartment, and the old man couldn't hear his answer at all.
"grandfather?"
"If you're in there, just give me a shout. We can solve anything. There's no need to hide and cry secretly."
Xie Chen learned to slow down his tone slowly, calmed down and comforted him.
"..."
Following Xie Chen's words.
The sobs coming from the second cubicle obviously slowed down a lot, and were no longer as urgent as before.
Xie Chen was afraid that the old man would just kick off and leave.
After all, at such a young age, if your blood pressure spikes, even the gods won’t be able to save you.
Although the clue is indeed important, I don't want to waste my chance to save my life just because of this incident.
Previously, the pocket watch could show the most primitive appearance of one's room, but who knows if it has consumed the number of times it has been used.
If anything, that's real fucking.
The character hiding behind this copy has not yet shown up, and his life-saving means have been almost exhausted.
Xie Chen knocked on the door slowly, and his tone became softer again.
"Uncle, can I open the door?"
"If anything happens, let's come out and talk about it."
"There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved. If we discuss it carefully, we might find a solution."
Since I just entered the bathroom, I have said seven or eight sentences.
But the old man didn't reply a word.
These last two sentences are no exception.
Xie Chen just leaned in front of the cubicle door and fell into a brief silence.
In fact, I am still a little tangled in my heart.
As long as the old man didn't open the door from the inside, he would have no choice but to force his way in.
But the main thing is I don’t know whether he relieves himself or goes to the big size.
If the old man had even put on his pants after breaking into the door, the scene would be irritating to think about.
Boom boom.
Xie Chen bent her fingers and knocked gently on the door twice.
"Old man, can you hear me?"
But even though he was like this, there was still no sound coming from inside.
Xie Chen suddenly felt extremely stressed.
"Then I'll open the door."
The most fearful thing is that this old guy will die suddenly inside due to a high heart rate. Then he will be the real victim.
Xie Chen took a few steps back, and when he suddenly raised his foot to kick the doorknob, the door of the compartment was gently pushed open from inside.
The old man walked out slowly.
Seeing this, Xie Chen immediately put his feet back.
Only then did he not let himself kick the old man.
