The next world preview, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Raiding Freddy~~~~~~~
People will always find all kinds of reasons for what they do, avoiding the serious and ignoring the minor, infinitely magnifying the suffering they have suffered, and evading the serious and mitigating their own mistakes, as if all the mistakes they have done are insignificant. It is only because he has suffered and cannot vent the pain that he commits the unforgivable crime.
Jason Robert is such a man. After pleading guilty, he cried bitterly, crying about his father's abnormality, the darkness of childhood, and crying about his growth path that was firmly controlled by his father. He said that killing was forced and helpless. Not his fault.
This kind of man is even more disgusting than that Robert Thomson just now. The ugliness of human nature is so nakedly displayed in front of Qin Yue, without a single bit of concealment.
Qin Yue remained silent, as if watching a farce, even the interrogator couldn't stand Jason Robert's sophistry, and put piles of photos of the victims in front of him.
He can dissect those victims alive when they are awake. Such a person has such a strong psychological quality, but how can he be afraid of countless pictures of rotten corpses that cannot be seen in human form?
He still chattered about his difficulties, talked about his helplessness, and repeatedly told the tragic past that he had encountered in his childhood.
Qin Yue was silent for a moment, and she pursed her lips to reveal her extremely bad mood. She thought of the man in the basement who shot fiercely. That man seemed to be completely different from the timid and timid man in front of her. , but they are clearly the same person.
Qin Yue didn't want to continue reading, so she turned around and strode out of the interrogation room.
More evidence was gathered in the homicide squad. The room in the nursing home was filled with the flesh and blood of the victims, like a sharp knife, tearing apart the seemingly flawless case.
Jessica and Thomson, the husband and wife, have been unable to escape legal sanctions.
The evidence is undeniable. They actually had contact with the blood and internal organs of the victims. No matter how they quibble, there is no way to erase these evidences.
Thomas Robert, a high paraplegic, was also arrested and imprisoned, but because he was inconvenient and unable to speak, it seemed that no useful information could be obtained from him.
Even so, just because the case was too big, as one of the suspects, he still could not escape the fate of being prosecuted.
At this point in the matter, it seems that the dust has settled. The cause and effect of this case have been revealed to the world. The next thing is the game between the judge and the lawyer.
Mante and the others have spent nearly a month on this case. Now that the murderer has been caught, it is time for them to retire.
In the temporary office, the mountains of materials here have been cleaned up. The empty room made Qin Yue feel a little unaccustomed to it. The very similar scene reminded her of the investigation of Henry's case a few months ago. When, it is also like this.
Mante looked down at Qin Yue, his eyes swept over her left arm covered by the shirt, he didn't know what to say, as if what to say at this time was inappropriate.
He took her to investigate two cases. In the first case, she was kidnapped by Henry and the others and disappeared for three days. Although she finally came back safely, she was covered in scars.
In the second case, she fought the murderer Jason Robert alone, leaving a long scar on her left arm. ,
Their world is full of dangers, and it is too dangerous for a little girl.
She is capable, too smart, and her intuition is terrifyingly accurate. These are her strengths, but her willful temperament makes these strengths of hers all become weaknesses.
These two times, she escaped by chance, what about the next time?Will she still have such a chance?
Mante stared at Qin Yue for so long that Qin Yue felt a little uncomfortable. She felt that there were too many things in his eyes, and his hesitation made her guess what he wanted to say.
Qin Yue raised her head and looked at Mante, half jokingly, half seriously asked: "Professor Mante, do you regret your promise to me? Will I have no chance to enter BAU in the future?"
Hearing Qin Yue's words, Scott's face collapsed. He couldn't imagine what it would be like for his sister to join BAU.
When she was not an official member, she had already worked so hard. If she became an official member, wouldn't she have completely thrown away her life?
Scott wanted to interrupt, but the atmosphere in the room seemed to be a little strange. Scott hesitated for a moment, but finally said nothing.
Mante's long silence had already given Qin Yue the best answer, Qin Yue curled her lips and smiled.
"I see. After this separation, we will not have a chance to see each other next time."
He is an agent of BAU, and she is a student at the University of Maryland. If he hadn't deliberately promoted her, they probably wouldn't have had so many opportunities to meet.
Perhaps the atmosphere in the room was too weird, so William smoothed things over: "Alice, you are still young, who can say for sure what will happen in the future."
William, who can speak well, did not play well in the rounder this time, and the atmosphere seemed to be more embarrassing than before.
Qin Yue felt a little suffocated, she breathed out, looked at the tall man standing in front of her, and said: "No matter what, Professor Mante, I still want to thank you, following you, I learned a lot, this It has been of great help to me."
Mante finally spoke, and the expression on his face returned to normal. He looked at Qin Yue, and something slowly settled in his black eyes: "School will start in a few days, you should go back and get ready. If there is something, you can call or email, and I will reply to you when I have time."
Qin Yue nodded with a smile, and heard Mante ask again: "Have you received any strange messages?"
Qin Yue's face remained unchanged, she shook her head: "No, maybe it was an accident."
Whether it was an accident or not, everyone present knew it well, but now, they couldn't find any trace of that person, he completely disappeared without a trace.
It is impossible for Mante and the others to stay here all the time looking for that person, so they seem to be unable to think of a better way than to ask Qin Yue to pay more attention.
After a breakup meal, Qin Yue and Scott returned to their home after half a month's absence.
Regarding the case they investigated and the things they experienced, they brought it up with just a few light words. Qin Yue and Scott did not mention those thrilling encounters together.
Seeing that the two children came back safely, Jesse didn't ask any more questions, but cherished the time with them all the more.
Cole noticed her daughter's untimely long sleeves, and blocked Qin Yue in the kitchen after dinner.
"what happened?"
Cole's eyes fell on Qin Yue's left arm, and his stern tone had already shown his attitude that he would not accept lies.
Qin Yue knew that she couldn't hide it, so she simply rolled up her sleeves, revealing the scar on her arm. The doctor's suturing skills were very good, and the ten-centimeter-long scar was not as hideous as before. Even so, seeing Qin Yue's white face Cole still couldn't accept the unsightly scar on his arm.
"What happened? How did you get hurt?"
Just looking at the wound that has healed, she knew how serious Qin Yue's injury was back then, but she still acted in such an understatement that she didn't even intend to tell about the injury.
Cole grabbed Qin Yue's arm and stroked the scar with his palm, his eyes were already red.
"Alice, I shouldn't have promised you to go in the first place."
How could he forget that BAU is hunting down the most vicious murderers, when danger comes, there will always be times when he can't be scruples, his daughter, his daughter...
Cole gritted his teeth, stared at Qin Yue with red eyes, and said word by word: "Alice, you'd better explain to me clearly."
Cole, who didn't know the truth, was already so angry. How could Qin Yue dare to say that she went straight into the dragon's lake and tiger's den alone? She can guarantee that if she tells what she did, she will definitely make her dear father faint.
Qin Yue just said that she was accidentally injured in the chaos. It looked serious, but it was actually just a skin trauma. Seeing that Cole didn't believe it, Qin Yue arrested Scott to testify. Nose helped perjury.
Cole was skeptical, Qin Yue coaxed and deceived her, but at least she got away with it.
Cole let the past go, and Qin Yue promises not to be an example, so this matter has been exposed.
After returning from Seattle, Qin Yue never received any text messages from that strange number. The ones she had seen before were like hallucinations.
However, Qin Yue knew very well that it was not an illusion. There was a person lurking in the dark, watching her every move. He only thought of what she had done before. Know.
Qin Yue is very clear that this person has a plan. He has been dormant for such a long time, and he must be brewing a bigger conspiracy. He is only waiting for it to explode and drag her into the bottomless abyss.
Are you afraid?
Qin Yue laughed, she was already fearless.
***
A few months later, at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, the first snow of this winter had just fallen, and Qin Yue saw the final trial results of the seven-day murder case in Seattle.
Jason Roberts was sentenced to 70 years for murder with no parole for 35 years.
He was the mastermind of this case, and he almost carried most of the charges, so that the three accomplices, Jessica, Thomson, and Carlos, received very short sentences.
Three people were sentenced to eight years, six years, and ten years in prison.
When she saw the verdict, Qin Yue showed a meaningless smile on her face.
After seeing Jason Robert who was alone in that basement, Qin Yue already knew about this result.
The law is fair and selfless, but there are always some loopholes that people cannot do anything about, and there will always be people who will find these loopholes and take advantage of these loopholes.
Did you deserve it?
maybe.
If a person wants to accomplish something, he will always find a way. That winter, at the coldest time, Jessica Robert died in a prison riot.
At the beginning of the spring of the second year, Thomson Robert, who had applied for medical parole because of serious liver problems, fell from the top floor of the hospital and died on the spot.
That same summer, at the height of the heat, Carlos Roberto drowned in the bathroom.
Of the four murderers, three were dead, and Jason Robert was the only one left alive.
Jason Robert went crazy. He said he saw a ghost, and saw those killed by him demanding his life. The prison guards injected him with countless sedatives, but they couldn't calm him down. He tried to commit suicide over and over again. , were rescued.
In the end, he was still dead. He stabbed himself in the throat with a sharpened toothbrush handle, and died after rescue failed.
The death of these people did not attract anyone's attention. They were sinners, and death was their best destination.
School life is busy and abundant, Qin Yue wanders in the ocean of knowledge, greedily absorbing it.
The four years of college passed by in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for graduation.
Not long after her 19th birthday, Qin Yue was faced with two choices, whether to continue her studies or to enter social work.
Qin Yue chose the latter without any hesitation.
When she was graduating, Qin Yue received a call from someone, and the voice on the other end of the phone made Qin Yue feel as if she had passed away.
"Alice, do you remember me?"
The man's voice came from the other end of the phone, and Qin Yue was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, showing a smile: "Professor Mante."
After they separated in Seattle that year, Qin Yue and Mante never saw each other again, and because the two parties were too busy, the contact time became less and less. At the beginning, Qin Yue would still send some emails. Two years, but no more news.
Qin Yue did not expect that Professor Manter would call her at this time. She was a little surprised, but felt that it was reasonable. After all, this man had promised her that she would join BAU after graduation.
The two chatted for a while, and finally, Mante said: "I'm downstairs in your dormitory. I don't know if I'm lucky enough to invite you to have lunch."
Qin Yue was slightly taken aback, got up and walked to the window, opened the window and looked downstairs.
The noon sun was just right, and the man was standing there in a smoky gray suit. He seemed to have noticed her gaze, raised his head, and looked in her direction. His eyes met. He raised his arms and waved towards her. waved.
Qin Yue couldn't help showing a smile. He was both a teacher and a friend. It had been a long time since they had seen each other, but the relationship between them was not weak.
Qin Yue tidied up briefly, tied up her waist-length hair, looked at the smiling girl in the mirror, Qin Yue nodded with satisfaction, picked up the small bag on the table, and walked downstairs.
I haven't seen her for three years. The little girl back then has grown into a big girl. Time has not left too many traces on her body. She is still the same as before, without much change.
Mante looked at the familiar figure, walked out of his memory, and stood in front of him alive. At that moment, Mante almost lost control, but only touched her bright smiling face, and finally endured it.
Like what he used to do, Mante stroked Qin Yue's hair and said softly, "Long time no see."
my beloved girl.
Qin Yue didn't know Mante's secret thoughts, she looked up at Mante, showing a bright smile, with a faint dimple in the corner of her mouth: "Hi, Professor Mante, long time no see."
Seeing her smile again, Mante felt like a world away. He thought those feelings had been forgotten with time, but when she stood in front of him, he clearly realized that it was just his self-deception That's all.
He never erased her figure from the bottom of his heart, those extravagant hopes increased with the passage of time, at this moment, he clearly understood that he still loved her.
It’s been a long time since Mante took Qin Yue to a famous restaurant in the city center. The fried steak there is delicious, but Qin Yue has never been there. The price is really prohibitive.
Qin Yue's attire was fairly decent, and she didn't make any oolongs as she was blocked from entering the restaurant.
The decoration of the restaurant is worthy of its expensive price, and there is a low-key luxury everywhere.
It was meal time at this time, and there were many people in the restaurant. Mante took Qin Yue to a box, which he had arranged in advance, and the purpose was to celebrate her graduation.
Qin Yue sat down on the leather sofa, looked at the man sitting opposite, with a smile on her face.
"Alice, what would you like to eat?"
Mante handed the menu to Qin Yue. Qin Yue took a few glances at it. The price on the menu was unacceptable. Qin Yue was speechless, and finally chose a steak set meal.
Mante raised his eyebrows, looked at Qin Yue's choice, and said with a smile: "You don't need to save money for me, I can still afford a meal."
Qin Yue smiled and said, "I like this."
Mante didn't say anything, and ordered the same set meal.
The waiter left the room, Qin Yue raised her eyebrows, looked at Mante who was sitting there: "You can just eat this?"
Mante's answer was exactly the same as Qin Yue's: "I like this."
Qin Yue laughed, and the gap between the two disappeared without a trace, and they returned to their original appearance.
"How did you get to Washington this time? Is there another case to investigate?"
Qin Yue felt that this was probably the reason, this person was so busy, if it wasn't for business, why would he come here?
Qin Yue guessed wrong.
"I'm here especially for you."
Qin Yue blinked, thinking that she was delusional, and repeated uncertainly: "Come here for me?"
Mante nodded, and under Qin Yue's surprised gaze, he said, "Do you still remember the promise I made to you?"
The smile on Qin Yue's face faded a bit: "When I was in Seattle, I thought you had canceled that promise."
Mante was silent for a while, and finally said: "What if I say, now I change my mind? Would you still be willing to enter BAU?"
Hearing Mante's words, Qin Yue fell silent and did not answer for a long time.
She really didn't expect that Mante would invite her to join BAU. At the beginning, when he was in Seattle, Mante's attitude had been clearly shown.
From then on, in Qin Yue's life plan, there was no such choice. When she decided to give up, Mante came to her again and told her that she hoped that she would join BAU. Qin Yue suddenly felt that life was a bit free. Anything can happen.
"why?"
In the end, Qin Yue only asked these three words.
When he was in Seattle, he canceled the promise inexplicably, but now, he wants to fulfill that promise. Qin Yue couldn't figure it out, and she couldn't figure it out. She felt that she couldn't understand the man in front of her at all.
why?
The answer to this question is probably not clear to Mante. In Seattle, because she was injured, he made that decision impulsively. After a long time, he fell into regret again. Her major is already doomed. The path she will take in the future, instead of letting her do those dangerous things where he can't see it, it's better to put her by his side, at least, he can still know her situation and protect her.
His contradictory thoughts are the same as his unspoken feelings. He didn't know how to tell the girl in front of him. Mante was silent for a long time, and suddenly regretted it. Before leaving, William had said that I came with him, but was rejected by him. Perhaps, with him here, this question would not be so difficult to answer.
The silence in the room made Qin Yue feel a little uncomfortable. She didn't know how difficult it was to answer this question, but she kept the man in front of her silent for so long. She turned her head and looked at the bustling street outside through the glass window. The expression of indifference and tranquility was reflected in Mante's eyes, which made him feel a little quiet. He let out a breath and truthfully told the reason.
Qin Yue didn't expect this to be the reason, because he was worried about her safety, so he didn't want her to join the BAU, because the criminals they faced were getting more and more ferocious, and he was afraid that her impulsiveness would put her in greater danger.
The softest part of Qin Yue's heart was touched. She looked at the man in front of her and smiled: "Now, aren't you afraid?"
Mante smiled wryly, didn't answer, but asked Qin Yue another seemingly irrelevant question: "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Qin Yue blinked, not knowing how the topic jumped to this personal issue: "I have."
Two words let Mante know who she was talking about.
He didn't continue to ask, and continued the previous topic: "Instead of letting you toss about in other places, it's better to put you under the eyelids, at least it can be seen by you."
During the conversation, Qin Yue's future was decided.
However, whether she can join or not depends on her test results. If she fails, Mante has nothing to do, he just gave her a chance.
Qin Yue cut the steak and muttered in her mouth: "I thought you asked me to join directly, but I didn't expect to take the exam."
Mante took a sip of the fragrant bitter coffee, raised his brows lightly: "No confidence?"
Qin Yue snapped: "How is that possible."
The two chatted while eating, and the content of the chat was the cases that Mante had solved in the past two years. After eating, Qin Yue probably understood what Mante had done in these years.
After Mante finished talking about himself, he asked Qin Yue what he had been doing all these years.
"It's not as colorful as you. I'm studying hard and making progress every day."
In just one sentence, Qin Yue's life in the past three years was summarized. Mante rubbed Qin Yue's hair, and said with a smile: "This is the most comfortable day for you, and you will know later. How comfortable."
Qin Yue gave Mante a supercilious look.
Mante laughed.
**
The next day, Mante took Qin Yue to the BAU headquarters, and Qin Yue found out that the BAU headquarters was in Quantico, not far from Washington, only three hours away by car.
Qin Yue's expression was a bit complicated, she glanced at Mante who was sitting in the driver's seat, and said nothing.
After two days of routine review and examination, Qin Yue became a temporary member of BAU. After the three-month internship expires, she will become a full-time employee.
BAU's office space is huge, occupying an independent three-story villa.
However, there are not many members of BAU, Mante, William, Hannah, and Nicole are all known by Qin Yue, and there are two remaining members, Jim and Alan.
Every member of BAU is a genius-type character. Compared with these people, Qin Yue's resume is a bit too ordinary.
However, Qin Yue was specially won over by Mante, and the attitude of these members towards Qin Yue was quite friendly.
During the routine dinner, Mante introduced Qin Yue to these members. William and Hannah had investigated two cases with Qin Yue, and they recognized Qin Yue's ability very much.
Nicole knew Qin Yue's talent in computers from Hannah, and was very curious about her. After the two communicated, Nicole found that some of Qin Yue's theories were beyond the scope of current science.
Nicole has an unparalleled talent in computer science and technology. The concept proposed by Qin Yue opened a new door in front of her. Behind the door is another world.
Nicole quickly accepted Qin Yue's existence, and her attitude towards her was much better than before.
Jim is BAU's external liaison officer. He is a well-rounded person, and his attitude towards Qin Yue makes it impossible to find any problems.
Ai Lun has always been indifferent to Qin Yue, keeping a distance neither far nor close, neither close nor indifferent, Qin Yue has an indescribable feeling towards Ai Lun, and doesn't care about his attitude.
Generally speaking, Qin Yue's life in BAU is pretty good.
Three years is enough for a lot of changes. William and Hannah are married, they have a two-year-old daughter, and recently, they even plan to have another baby.
In the third week after joining the company, Hannah asked Qin Yue to go to her house for dinner, and Qin Yue readily agreed.
Qin Yue has seen Hannah and William's child, the little girl looks very much like Hannah, she is a very beautiful blonde girl.
Listening to the little girl calling her aunt in a childlike voice, Qin Yue felt that her heart was about to melt. After feeling a lot, Qin Yue suddenly felt a little old.
Hannah brought the prepared lunch to the dining table, and the tasty and delicious lunch whetted Qin Yue's appetite. She and Hannah's family had a pleasant holiday.
Not long after lunch, the little girl was sleepy. Hannah winked and signaled William to take her daughter to bed. William felt that something was wrong with what they were going to do. Seeing his wife insisting, he didn't say anything, and took his daughter to sleep. went upstairs.
There were only Qin Yue and Hannah left in the living room. Qin Yue realized something was wrong after a while, and her heart skipped a beat, but the expression on her face didn't change, she still looked at Hannah with a smile.
Hannah looked at the girl in front of her.
She is still the same as three years ago, nothing has changed.
For three years, she originally thought that Mante could let go of this feeling, but now it seems that Mante is stuck in it. He knows that it is a swamp that will only sink deeper and deeper, but he has nothing to do with it. The meaning of withdrawing.
Although Hannah no longer has that kind of affection for Mante, she doesn't want to see her old friend for many years being tortured by emotion. She wants to help him.
Mante had too many scruples, and he didn't dare to ask about many things, allowing time to be wasted.
She was still young, but he couldn't afford it anymore.
Although a decision had been made, Hannah was still a little apprehensive and hesitated for a while before Hannah asked, "What do you think of Mante?"
Qin Yue keenly sensed that something was wrong, she looked at Hannah who was close at hand, she couldn't figure out what she meant by asking this question, after thinking for a while, Qin Yue said cautiously: "He is a very good person. "
Qin Yue paused, and added: "Professor Mante taught me a lot, and I am very grateful to him."
Qin Yue's words chilled Hannah's heart, and at this point, Hannah simply clarified everything: "What kind of man do you think Mante is?"
Hannah deliberately emphasized the man's pronunciation.
Qin Yue's dull nerves finally understood Hannah's meaning. However, after understanding her meaning, Qin Yue didn't know how to answer her question.
If her understanding is correct, Hannah should be asking if she is interested in Mante?
Qin Yue fell silent, and under Hannah's earnest gaze, she squeezed out a sentence: "I respect Professor Manter very much, and in my heart, he will always be my teacher."
Qin Yue didn't know whether Hannah's questioning this time was her own idea or someone else's instruction, but Qin Yue's attitude was very clear, she just respected Mante as a teacher, and had no other meaning.
We are all smart people, talk a lot, stop at the end, and if you continue, no one will look too good.
For this meal, Qin Yue came here in high spirits and returned in disappointment. Qin Yue was so upset that when she returned to her rented apartment, she found a white envelope stuffed through the crack of the door.
Qin Yue bent down to pick up the envelope, and after opening it, the contents inside fell down.
Qin Yue lowered her head, and there were a bunch of photos scattered on the ground. The people in those photos were all herself, all kinds of distant and close shots, single-person photos, Qin Yue felt even more depressed.
The cell phone rang, indicating that Qin Yue had new news.
Turning on the phone, Qin Yue saw the content on it.
'Congratulations on joining BAU, this is my gift, do you like it? '
That pervert has been entangled with Qin Yue for three years, but he never showed his face. Qin Yue tried all means, but couldn't find out who this person is, which made Qin Yue feel a little frustrated.
After taking a shower, Qin Yue burned all the photos scattered on the ground, exhaled, and threw herself on the bed.
This person's patience is so good, he has been entangled with him for three years, but he has not revealed any flaws. Occasionally, he will disappear for a while, and just when Qin Yue thinks that he is not showing up, he will make something to show his presence.
The last time this person sent a message to Qin Yue was three months ago. Apart from making people sick, the things he did were harmless.
Qin Yue sometimes doubts whether what she meets is really just a perverted stalker.
Qin Yue couldn't figure it out clearly, and didn't bother to guess. What he wanted to do would be revealed sooner or later. He was not in a hurry, and neither was she.
**
At 05:30, Qin Yue received a call from Mante. Seeing the familiar name on the phone, Qin Yue was a little annoyed. Thinking of what Hannah said at noon, Qin Yue let out a breath, adjusted her mood, and answered Got on the phone.
"Hello, Professor Manter."
Qin Yue's voice was not much different from before, and her attitude towards Mante was the same as before.
"Alice."
Mante didn't know what Hannah and William had done, nor did he know that his hidden secret had been exposed. His voice was very soft, revealing a gentleness that he hadn't noticed.
"Let's go out for dinner together at night. How about it? There's a good Chinese restaurant nearby. I'll take you to try it."
"Professor Manter, I've already eaten, sorry, let's talk about it next time."
Qin Yue declined Mante's invitation. To be honest, after experiencing Hannah's departure at noon, Qin Yue still hadn't recovered from her senses. She really didn't know how to face Mante.
"Well, let's talk about it next time."
Mante chatted with Qin Yue for a few more words, then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Mante's face narrowed, he lowered his head, and tapped his fingers on the table lightly.
During the phone call just now, although Qin Yue hid it well, Mante still sensed that her emotions were not right.
What happened?
Mante was a little worried, thought about it, and decided to go see her.
She lives alone in this city, and it is his responsibility to take care of her.
***
After hanging up Mante's phone, Qin Yue lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling above with her eyes open.
What did Hannah mean by her question today?
Is it what she guessed?Could Mante think that way about her?
Qin Yue carefully recalled the relationship with Mante, and didn't find anything wrong, and Mante didn't show any ambiguous gestures.
It's because she thought it wrong, Mante, how could she have feelings for her.
Qin Yue felt that this was a fantasy, and felt that she was a bit mediocre. Maybe Hannah just wanted to ask her opinion on Mante, and had no other special meaning.
Qin Yue told herself that, after being paralyzed on the bed for a long time, she felt that she was really hungry, and she suddenly regretted rejecting Mante's invitation.
After waiting for a long time, Qin Yue got up and made a bowl of instant noodles.
While waiting for the meeting, Qin Yue heard the doorbell ring. At this time, who would come to her?
The door opened, and seeing Mante standing outside, Qin Yue's expression froze for a moment, thinking that she was hallucinating.
How could this man be here?
The aroma of instant noodles was too strong, and Qin Yue's lie was exposed. Mante frowned and looked at the instant noodles Qin Yue put on the table, and asked in disapproval: "You just eat this?"
Qin Yue was a little embarrassing, she lied just now, but she was immediately found out, no matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn't help being a little embarrassed.
"That, I ate it, but I was hungry again, so I ate this."
Qin Yue explained, but it felt a bit darker and darker, and finally she simply shut up and stopped talking.
Mante threw Qin Yue's instant noodles into the trash can, and grabbed Qin Yue's wrist to take her out.
"I treat you to a big meal."
Mante said so.
Qin Yue was dragged by Mante for a few steps, seeing that he was about to be dragged out of the door, Qin Yue shouted: "Professor Mante, let me go, how can I get out like this?"
Mante turned back, looked at the cool pajamas Qin Yue was wearing, fell silent for a moment, and silently let go of the hand holding her arm.
Qin Yue glared at Mante, then turned and went back to the room to change clothes.
Mante opened his hand, staring blankly at his palm, not knowing what to think.
A few minutes later, Qin Yue came out of the room. She had already changed into the clothes she was going out in, a T-shirt and a suspender skirt. Mante stood together, looking a bit like a father and daughter.
Her youthful beauty stung Mante's eyes, and he deeply felt the insurmountable gap between the two.
He thought that with the passage of time, he could come to her side, but now it seems that everything is just his delusion.
Qin Yue dressed herself up like this on purpose.
If she was just skeptical, the sudden arrival of Mante proved her guess.
No one knew better than her that there was no possibility between the two of them.
