Paper Maker

Chapter 29 The Paper Figure on the Bed

I went back to the county with Lin Xiaoqi, and I originally asked her to take me back to the hotel, but she said that I was seriously injured, and if I didn't take medicine to treat it well, I might get infected, and then I would be in big trouble.So, she suggested that I go to her house to stay for one night. There happened to be disinfectant medicine at home, and I would deal with it when the time came.

I asked her, aren't your parents at home, and suddenly brought a boy back, would they do something like that?

Lin Xiaoqi laughed happily when she heard this, and asked me if I was afraid?

I said I'm not afraid, but if your parents are here, it's better to live comfortably in a hotel.

She said, don't worry, I'm alone at home now, and my parents are watching the company in Shenzhen, so how can I stay here when I have time?Ever since, she took me directly to her home.

Her home is not in the center of the county seat, but close to the suburbs. There is a big mountain there, but it has been developed into a park now. There are small villas at the foot of the mountain, and her house is at the foot of the mountain.

Because it is backed by mountains and on the edge of the county town, it is very quiet at night.The villa is not very big. After entering the house, I went directly to the second floor. She helped me into a room and asked me to take off my clothes and wait on the bed. Medicines, and help with the bruises on my back.

She is very gentle and careful, which makes me feel a feeling that I have never had before, maybe this feeling is called caring.

Maybe it's because this feeling is so wonderful, maybe it's because I'm really tired today, or maybe I'm so hurt that I have no energy, so I fell asleep before I knew it, and when did I fall asleep? I don't know.

After falling asleep, I had a dream, a beautiful dream, dreaming of Lin Xiaoqi, dreaming that she and I were holding hands, like a pair of lovers, she loves me, I love her.But at this moment, a person suddenly took her away. I wanted to chase that person, but I couldn't catch up.

Just when I was so anxious that I was about to cry, there was a sudden "squeak" sound of opening the door, which woke me up from my dream.I opened my eyes and realized that it was just a dream.

I looked at it, and it was already bright daylight. I looked at the alarm clock hanging on the wall, and it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon.Unexpectedly, I slept for more than ten hours in a single sleep, so I hurriedly got up from the bed. Although my back was still aching, it was much better than last night.

It didn't take long for the sound of opening the door to sound, then the door closed again with a "bang", and then someone was heard entering the room.I thought to myself, since I slept for so long, maybe Lin Xiaoqi just came back after going out.Thinking of this, I went out of the room...

But as soon as I walked out of the room, I was stunned, because the person in the living room was not Lin Xiaoqi, or that person was a man.

But it wasn't just me who was in a daze and surprise, the other party was also very surprised, and I was in a daze.

I looked at the other party, who looked about 50 years old, and a suitcase was placed on the side of the living room.Seeing this, I couldn't help being taken aback, wondering if it was Lin Xiaoqi's father?
At that time, I hurriedly looked at myself. Fortunately, I was still wearing pants, but because of the injury on my back, I didn't wear any clothes. I hope he won't think I'm too sloppy.

"Who are you, and why did you appear in my house!" Soon, the other party asked me, but the tone of the question was a bit bad, and I could even hear some questioning tone.

I looked around, but I didn't see Lin Xiaoqi, but the person in front of me had a bad tone, shouldn't it be Lin Xiaoqi's father?I was curious, so I said, "Who are you?"

When the other party heard that I didn't answer, he asked him back instead, so he was very angry.He said: "Who am I? I am the owner of this house. Quickly tell me who you are and how you got in. If you don't tell me, I will send you to the Public Security Bureau right now!"

Damn, when I heard this, I was shocked, it turned out that it was Lin Xiaoqi's father, so I hurriedly said: "Uncle, Uncle, you misunderstood, I am Xiaoqi's classmate, I was hurt a little last night , so she invited me to stay at your house for one night."

Unexpectedly, when the other party heard this, he became even more angry, and shouted: "Fart, be careful if you tell the truth, or you will tell the truth only if I call the police!"

When I heard this, I was really confused. Why didn't this person turn his head?I have already said that Lin Xiaoqi invited me here, but he still wants to force me to tell the truth, does he still think that I sneaked in?So I cried bitterly: "Uncle, I was really invited by Xiaoqi. Aren't you Xiaoqi's father? Did we enter the wrong house?"

The other party said: "I am Lin Xiaoqi's father, but you said that Xiaoqi invited you here, aren't you talking nonsense?"

I said: "Uncle, what do you mean by this? It seems that I am lying to you. Could it be that I have your house key, or am I sneaking into your house to sleep? If you don't believe me, you can ask Ask Xiaoqi!"

Unexpectedly, the other party's next sentence was like a thunder, completely stunned me.He said: "Xiaoqi died a long time ago, and she has been dead for many years. You said that Xiaoqi asked you to live here. Are you talking nonsense with your eyes open?"

Damn it, can't you?Are you joking with Lao Tzu, but this joke is too big, right?

To be honest, when I heard this, I really thought I had heard it wrong. You must know that I have been with Lin Xiaoqi for the past two days, and there are so many classmates from the early years playing together. Now I suddenly heard this The so-called Xiaoqi's father said that Lin Xiaoqi had been dead for many years. Can you not be shocked?Do you think I can believe it?

So I said, "Uncle, are you joking? Or are you trying to scare me?"

The other party glared at me and said, "Did you hear that fathers would curse their daughters to death? Have you ever heard of fathers making fun of their daughters' deaths?"

My originally smiling expression slowly cooled down, because I saw that the other party didn't seem to be joking, and what he said was right, he couldn't make fun of his daughter's life and death.But, I've been playing with Lin Xiaoqi these two days?How did she say she died?And still dead for several years?What the hell is this...?

Immediately, my heart became anxious, or panicked, I was afraid, I was afraid that what the other party said was true, and I was even suddenly afraid of losing Lin Xiaoqi.So I shouted Lin Xiaoqi's name loudly, but the whole room was very quiet, except for me and the breath of the man in front of me, I couldn't hear Lin Xiaoqi's response at all...

At this time, the other party also seemed to see that I wasn't joking with him, so he couldn't help becoming frightened, and then asked me in a trembling voice: "You...you really saw...you saw Xiaoqi? Really...really... ...she asked you to live here?"

"Well, I met her on the street the day before yesterday, and we went on an outing together yesterday. She brought me here to live, and she opened the door. And because I got hurt during the day, she returned it to me at night. I rubbed the medicine, if you don’t believe me, look here, is there still medicine?” As I said that, I suddenly pointed at my back excitedly, and let him see the red medicine on my back.

After listening to my words, I took another look at the potion that had dried up on my back. The other party sat down on the sofa and sighed a long time.After a while, he finally said: "Xiaoqi has been dead for several years. She died suddenly before she was admitted to university. Why do you think she will come back? She is obviously dead , how can you still see her? Does she have something on her mind? "

After saying these words, Mr. Lin couldn't help but shed tears, which obviously brought back the sad things in the past.

Seeing him like this, I didn't have the heart to comfort him, because I simply couldn't accept what the other person said, and I couldn't accept that Lin Xiaoqi was dead.If this is true, don't I have to doubt myself first?Do you wonder if you have been dreaming these past few days, or are you just thinking wildly?

At the moment, I didn't care about Mr. Lin any more, I rushed to the room where Lin Xiaoqi slept, opened the door, and then saw Lin Xiaoqi...

There were pink walls, sky-blue curtains, and a small walnut bed. Lin Xiaoqi was lying on the small bed, looking as if she was extremely tired and lying on the edge of the bed for a rest.But when I rushed into her room in one or two steps, I was completely stunned.

Because when I went to take a closer look, I found that Lin Xiaoqi, who was resting on the edge of the bed in front of me, was not really Lin Xiaoqi at all, but a paper figurine.

Because I saw the bamboo sticks inside from the corner of her clothes at a glance. Hers was made of paper, but this paper figurine really resembles Lin Xiaoqi, even the face, expression, and clothes are exactly the same!
Now I was really scared, how could there be a paper doll, how could there be a paper doll exactly like Lin Xiaoqi?Is Lin Xiaoqi really dead?If this is the case, is it Lin Xiaoqi's ghost who gave me the medicine last night, or is it the paper figurine in front of me?
Thinking of this, I was really terrified.What I am afraid of is not ghosts, but the result...

At this time, I suddenly felt that I was a little mentally disturbed. Maybe it was because of my mental problems these days, because only in this way can I explain the doubts in my heart.

At this time, Mr. Lin walked into the room slowly, looked at the paper figurine on the bed, couldn't help but sighed, and told me that Xiaoqi asked someone to tie the paper figurine before she was alive, and she died after piercing it.

Hearing this, I couldn't help being puzzled. I asked him, was this paper figurine made by Xiaoqi before she was alive?
I have to be surprised, knowing that paper figurines are all pierced and burned for the dead, how can a stranger make a paper figurine for himself, and make it according to his own appearance, isn't this too weird?
