2182 Words
 With the "okay" phrase in his ears, Ye Miao's pathetically weak resistance completely disintegrated, and he nodded in a daze, and under the urging of the smiling Berial, obediently went upstairs to change into a warm jacket and went out with him. The night breeze blew, Ye Miao inserted his hands into his pockets, and his hot brain slowly cooled down. It is said that M people are very concerned about personal boundaries, do not like to do too much physical contact with strangers? They obviously only met the second day, how come Berial can stand so close to her so calmly, and use a petulant tone of voice to talk to her? Yesterday too, he naturally took her hand and went upstairs. It's not a greasy and eager, nor is it a strong flirtation that makes people embarrassed with goose bumps. It seems to be slightly frivolous, but in fact are very gentlemanly, point to the end, and did not cross the line, just the right expression of good feelings for you, so that people can not afford to hard to refuse the mind. Since adolescence, there is no shortage of boys in school who have a crush on her, but no one has ever dared to do so to her. Today I tried to find out, I still eat this set ...... Ye Miao discouraged, a little bit of hate. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into. Berial said the western restaurant is one stop away from the commercial street. In the night, the western-style buildings on both sides of the street are reflected in a dim light. The sky was lined with star lights, twisted into the shapes of pumpkins, stars and candies, twinkling in the air. Store windows are also decorated with black veils, witch hats, hollowed out ghost-faced pumpkins. Ye Miao was a little surprised. It's only mid-October, half a month before Halloween, and the streets are already so atmospheric. Nowadays, the cultures of various countries intermingle, and as a Western holiday, the grotesque and hilarious Halloween is one of the Western festivals popular among young Chinese. And in M country, Halloween day will be a direct holiday. She had heard Wang Qi say that there were lively parades and carnival parties everywhere at that time. People would flamboyantly dress up as vampires, magicians, werewolves, ghosts, mummies, etc., smearing their faces and clothes with tomato juice and paint, running in groups and dancing with the devil in the streets. Ye Miao and these activities have always had no relationship, some lively, she could not go together, because she could not be sure, then close to their own is not the real person. Once inadvertently played off, the banter will instantly turn into a scythe, mercilessly swung down and cut her throat. Because of never having been involved, Ye Miao is actually a little envious of people with normal physiques who can play together uninhibitedly. At home when not much feeling, after all, although the popularity of Halloween, go to China, or a little bit of water and land. Until this moment bathed in the atmosphere of Western countries, that little bit of envy is steeply magnified. The newly opened Western restaurant that Berial mentioned is located at the end of this street. The restaurant is in the shape of an old Western-style mansion, with the exterior walls and plaques crawling with decorative blackened thorns, emblazoned with bats and roses. The lights are slightly dimmed and the high ceiling has a pattern of blood moons and sharp branches. The tables and chairs were designed in the shape of twisted thorns, and the vases with red roses were in the shape of owls. Ye Miao flipped through the menu and found that the menu also had various Halloween illustrations, and was surprised: "This restaurant is so interesting, is it made like this because of Halloween?" "I don't think so. The gothic style is one of the selling points of this restaurant." Berial held his chin and said, "However, I heard that on Halloween, this store will hold a special event where customers will randomly get different free drinks depending on the character they dress up as." "There's this kind of event?" Ye Miao grew knowledgeable and curious: "Do you go out on Halloween?" Berial nodded: "A few times. How about you?" "I haven't. Then what did you used to dress up as?" "I don't dress up much, I just go out and walk around." Berial's sultry eyes flicked to her, and coldly threw a question over: "What role do you think I'm suitable to dress up as?" Ye Miao frowned and thought: "It should be a very evil, very powerful dark role, such as the vampire prince, the devil, Satan and so on." Once she looked up, she saw Berial's red eyes looking at her unblinkingly, the corners of her mouth raised, and suddenly said an inexplicable thank you: "Thanks for the compliment." His mood, it seems, is better than just now. Ye Miao was bewildered and could not figure out which of her words had accidentally patted him on the back. It's hard to believe that he thought that she was complimenting him on his "excellent playing skills" just now. The lamb chops at this restaurant are really delicious, with a crispy exterior and a juicy interior. On Berial's recommendation, she also tried a fruit wine, a specialty of M, which was very flavorful. All night long, there were a lot of eyes staring around, but not at her, but at Berial, who was sitting across from her. I have heard a saying before, "Beauty is easy to get, but beauty is hard to find". It means that as long as a person does not have obvious flaws, there are always various means to refine oneself to become more and more refined. But the resulting beauty is a precise pinch, fixed photo angle, patterned smile curvature ...... flowing deliberately, the bottleneck will always exist. Beauty regardless of gender, are more charming to live. The darker the light, then the sea of people, the eyes of onlookers will be the first time for them to focus. In this regard, Berial is accustomed to the look. Ye Miao was also a little uncomfortable at first, and then the food was current, and ignored the outside world's eyes. In the chat, she found herself and Berial very compatible, whether it is taste or views on some things are very consistent, there is no cold, the atmosphere is very cordial. Ye Miao even forgot to be reserved, and unconsciously ate a little too much. When the checkout left, the time was close to ten o'clock at night, the stores on the commercial street closed half, pedestrians are also a lot less, the old newspapers on the benches were blown by the wind constantly tossed. The bar at the night camp was lit up with neon lights, lined with the silent star lights in the sky, haloed into a light. One stop is not far. When they came, they were walking over. But Ye Miao remembered the recent murders, or a little uneasy, decided to go back with Berial by car, and urged him: "I heard that recently St. Montanka is not very safe, especially near the University of A. If it's okay, you also come back early, do not go to the remote places." Berial tilted his head and looked at her seriously, "Are you afraid that I will meet bad people?" Ye Miao threw him a "bullshit" look: "Of course! You were attacked not long ago, so of course I'm worried." Although he was quite tall and did not look weak, she had seen him knocked unconscious in a cold alley before, and from then on, she knew that Berial was a weak type of boy. If he met a big robber, he would not be able to beat them. In fact, it should be the bad guys who are more afraid when they meet him. However, the feeling of occupying her attention and being remembered and worried by her was unexpectedly quite good - Berial smiled faintly and promised, "I know, I'll be home early." The area around the student apartments was a residential area, and it was supposed to be quiet at this late hour, when the time for parties had passed. However, after getting out of the car and almost to the apartment gate, there were two police cars parked in front of them, with blue lights flashing. Two white police officers were holding flashlights and looking around the railing near the mailbox. And the door to the apartment was open. Ye Miao was unsure and muttered, "Why are there police, is there something wrong in the apartment?" "I don't know." Berial shook his head and suggested, "Let's go in and see." When he entered, he saw that all the lights were on in the living room, and a blond-haired policewoman sitting at the dining room table was questioning Kristen, taking notes as she did so. Kristen was pale and dazed, and spoke in a low voice. On the sofa, almost everyone who lives in this apartment, the atmosphere here is very stagnant. Kevin leaned on the wall, saw them back, nodded at them, and pointed to a box of pizza on the table in front of the sofa, said: "Ye, that is the pizza delivery with your phone number written on it. That delivery employee said he was lost and didn't deliver it until almost nine, so I brought it in for you." "Thanks." Ye Miao now did not want to pursue the responsibility of the late pizza delivery, but looked around the week and asked in a small voice, "We just came back from dinner, what's going on?" Kevin looked a little strange: "Have you guys seen that box of curry rice on the table before you left the house? Shin ate that box of curry rice and something went wrong." If he didn't say it, Ye Miao didn't even notice that Shin Minxing, the Korean student who lived in room 203, was indeed not here. "Kristin said it was hanging on the railing outside the door and thought it was a random dinner we ordered and brought it in. I went downstairs and found out it wasn't pizza, so I put it aside." Ye Miao finished explaining and wondered, "What, did Shen Minxing eat that box of rice and get food poisoning?" "It would be good if it was just food poisoning." Kevin sighed and said with immense sympathy, "Today, Shin was too lazy to cook and saw that the box of rice was not claimed, so he planned to eat it. I advised him not to, and he didn't listen, so I went to my room." "Shortly after, I heard a scream from downstairs and immediately ran down. I saw Shin lying on his back at the dining room table, picking his throat while vomiting profusely." Kevin took a deep breath and his voice trembled a little: "Poor Shen, from that box of curry rice, ate half a human toe." Ye Miao's pupils snapped. "Initially thought it was chopped pork bones, and then found that the top was attached to a human nail ...... Shen was on the verge of fainting. Our whole building was terrified, rushed him to the hospital, but also reported to the police, the box of curry rice was taken away by the police." The box of curry rice, she also opened the lid at that time, thinking about what the golden curry under the meat particles, she had a feeling of wanting to vomit. Fortunately, Berial took it away at that time, if she had looked at it for a while, it would have left an indelible psychological shadow. Not only that, Berial invited her out for dinner, but also happened to perfectly miss the beginning and end of Shin Min-hang's discovery of the secret of the curry rice, so she didn't see any horrible images ...... which is also a great fortune among misfortunes. Speaking of which, the recent murder case that has not yet been solved, the lower half of the deceased has not yet been found. The minced meat in the curry rice will certainly not appear for no reason. Is it possible that this could be the method that the murderer used to destroy the body? As long as it is cut up enough, mixed into the box of unidentified rice, picked up by the homeless ...... will be able to unknowingly make half of the body completely disappear. Ye Miao face blue, almost want to vomit out on the spot. Just then, a pair of strong and solid arms held her up. Hearing such a perverted thing, Berial's reaction is still much calmer than hers, like a needle in the sea, stabilizing her emotions. He looked down at her and whispered, "Don't be afraid, go over and sit on the sofa first."
