under the vortex

Chapter 4
Seeing Gong Dalong's face of facing forward instead of backward, Jia Wenjun didn't bother to look at it. He clicked on WeChat and started contacting Anna, asking her how she slept last night, and if she needed to go and see her.

Anna didn't dare to go back to 601 last night. Fortunately, she has another apartment in the community. She made a statement with the police last night and went directly to live in another house.

When Anna received Jia Wenjun's WeChat message, Anna just woke up and immediately made a video call to Jia Wenjun.

"Xiao Jia, I'm fine. What about that? Doesn't your property have a business of helping sell second-hand houses? You can help me list the 601 suite for sale. I don't want to go back and live in it. I'm in a panic."

Jia Wenjun paused, and replied, "Okay Sister An, I will help you post the house information in a while. There is another thing, that is, the weekend sea fishing."

Before she finished speaking, Anna took over the conversation: "Yes, that's right, I was about to talk about it. This sea fishing is definitely going, don't cancel it. But it may not work this weekend. The police station will Maybe there are still things that need my cooperation. In this way, you can tell your managers to push it back, and I will tell you the time when I finish my work here."

With such a big "bloody disaster", Anna wished she could go to sea now to "change her luck", but now that various things are holding her back, she can't leave even if she wants to.

Jia Wenjun hung up the phone and saw that Gong Dalong was talking to Lili, so he didn't rush to tell him the matter, but went to the bathroom first.

A room full of people in the property office was clearing up things on the floor, and several female colleagues outside gathered together to discuss: "I look at that woman surnamed Zhao as crazy, and I don't know how Jia Wenjun's ex-boyfriend's eyes grew, and how he cheated on her." What kind of girl did you find?"

"Men like young and beautiful ones. Jia Wenjun is almost thirty, how can he compare with that young woman who is pinching water?"

"To be honest, Jia Wenjun can really bear it. If I want to, I would have left a long time ago. If I don't see it, I won't."

Jia Wenjun in the toilet heard everything. She washed her face and looked at herself in the mirror. It wasn't that she didn't want to leave, she was used to doing things with a plan.Next year, as long as she passes the exam, she will leave here without leaving her head.Besides, they were the ones who did the wrong thing, so why should she sell the house and resign to avoid them?
A week later, 601, a one-storey, one-family unit that could not be grabbed before, was not sold even though Anna was willing to cut the price by 30.The overall housing price of the community has also been greatly affected by the jumping incident.

The owner vented his anger on the property owner and cursed in the group. Jia Wenjun was particularly tired this week. She dealt with several cases of the owner's intentional faults today, and then she returned home from get off work exhausted.

When she got home, the golden retriever came up to meet her, rubbing her nose on Jia Wenjun's head and knees.

Jia Wenjun reached out and touched this silly and cute big golden retriever: "Hungry, I'm hungry too, let's eat."

The previous owner of the dog was the girl who jumped off the building.The girl's stepmother thought it was bad luck and drove the dog out of the house.Other dog owners in the community did not dare to raise a golden retriever. The golden retriever was treated as a stray dog ​​in the community, picking up garbage and eating it everywhere. Jia Wenjun saw it as pitiful, and fed it a few times in the community, and it followed Jia Wenjun all day long, pitifully.

Gong Dalong originally wanted to call the dog-beating team to come and take the dog away, but Jia Wenjun finally couldn't bear it, and took the already starved and emaciated dog back to his home, and gave it a new name Rhubarb.

After preparing the meals, one person and one dog ate dinner, and Jia Wenjun took it for a walk in the community.

When passing by the gate guard, the Baimashan father and son who lived at the opposite door happened to come back and greeted Jia Wenjun.

Rhubarb was very enthusiastic about the two of them, and kept throwing himself on them.

Bai Xun, the son of Baima Mountain, took two steps back. The man stood in front of him and squatted down to tease the dog: "Sit down, hey, that's right."

"It didn't scare you, did it? I was also scared by it when I first saw it, and now I'm slowly getting used to it." Jia Wenjun said embarrassedly to the boy.

"I'm not scared." Bai Xun was as tall as his father's chin, thin and shy.

"He is allergic to dog hair." Bai Mashan explained to Jia Wenjun, taking out a ham sausage from a plastic bag in the supermarket and giving it to Rhubarb: "Here, here you are."

"Brother Bai, I have fed it at home just now, don't make its mouth tricky." Jia Wenjun said with a smile.

"That's right. You are doing a good deed by taking it in. If there is any problem with the dog in the future, you can send it to me. I will treat it for free."

"Thank you so much, Brother Bai." Jia Wenjun has a good impression of this neighbor surnamed Bai. He runs a pet hospital next to the community, knows animals, and is very caring for pets. The free pet clinic in the community is a kind person.

Several people said hello and left separately. After going out for a stroll, Jia Wenjun went to take a bath, and Gouzi lay on his stomach in the living room.

As soon as Jia Wenjun rubbed out the bubbles in the bathroom, he heard a rustling sound outside the bathroom.

This sound had never been heard in Jia Wenjun's house. Being used to living alone, she panicked for a moment. After calming down, she quickly wrapped her body in a towel, and quickly picked up the mobile phone beside her.

Because she lives alone, she never leaves her mobile phone, and even brings it into the bathroom when she takes a shower, so that she can call for help immediately in case of any emergency.

"Oh, wait, there is a dog at home. The sound should be made by the dog." Thinking of this, Jia Wenjun breathed a sigh of relief. Although she has been raising it for a while, she is still not used to having another job at home. things.

If someone had come in, the dog would have barked.

Now the dog is not barking, it should be the sound made by the dog itself.

After Jia Wenjun's own analysis, he felt that it was a false alarm.She quickly washed off the foam on her body, put on her clothes and came out.Sure enough, I saw Rhubarb scratching the door vigorously, and his paws made a rattling sound.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Rhubarb's hind legs supporting the floor, and his front legs lying on the door, scratching the door handle with his paws, Jia Wenjun yelled at the dog.

Seeing Jia Wenjun coming out, the dog stopped moving.

"I asked what you were doing!" Jia Wenjun hurried over and gave Gouzi a pat on the head.

Rhubarb narrowed his eyes and flinched, spitting out the bunch of keys from Jia Wenjun's house that was in his mouth.

"You've grown up, and you want to get the key to open the door and come in?" Jia Wenjun was angry and funny, yelled at the dog a few times, and quickly picked up the key on the ground to let it go back to the den.

The dog turned his face to the door with aggrievedness. For some reason, it suddenly jumped up and rushed to the door again. Its strong front hooves pressed the door handle frantically. If Jia Wenjun hadn't locked the door inside, the door would have been opened long ago.

"Calm down." Jia Wenjun held the collar and pulled the dog back. When the dog's paw left the door, Jia Wenjun clearly heard movement outside the door.

In view of the sensitivity of women living alone, she moved lightly, slowly turned the door mirror, and saw that it was pitch black outside.

The corridor light outside broke down at some point, and Wen Jun explained that an electrician would have to come and fix it tomorrow.While thinking about the dark door mirror, she suddenly felt something blink in the darkness beyond the door mirror.

It took Jia Wenjun two seconds to realize that the darkness she had been seeing just now turned out to be the eyes of the other party, and the flash just now was the other party's blinking.

Her scalp numb, and she immediately closed the door mirror.

At this time, the people outside were standing just across the door from her.The two faced each other through the door.

Wenjun didn't dare to breathe, she didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment, the hand holding the phone was shaking.She hurriedly called the security captain who was on duty tonight, and asked them to inspect her building immediately, saying that there were suspicious people here.

She spoke loudly on purpose, for fear that the other party would not hear her.

After making the phone call, she dragged the cabinet next to the door to hold it against the door, then closed the small window of the bathroom facing the corridor, rushed to the kitchen and took a cooking knife in her hand, and then calmed down.

Ten minutes later, the security guard called her and said that she had inspected the building and found no suspicious person.

Jia Wenjun was still worried: "Go back later and help me adjust the monitoring of this building to see who has been in and out during this time period."

"Okay, sister Jia, don't worry, we will send more people to patrol the building tonight."

After hanging up the phone, Jia Wenjun instantly softened up and sat down on the sofa, but he didn't really relax.After all, the shock just now was too terrifying, and the shadow will not go away for a while.

Thinking of the scene just now, she looked at Rhubarb: "No wonder it is so impatient. It turns out that it knows what's going on outside."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something, and frowned immediately: "No, the dog was holding my key in its mouth at the time. It...couldn't be trying to pass the key to the person at the door?"

This thought made Jia Wenjun goosebumps all over. She sat on the sofa blankly, looking at the dog who had calmed down and stared at her obsessively. The more she looked at the dog, the more panicked she became.

All night, her mind went blank, her hands and feet were cold, and she dared not sleep at all.

Lying on the bed tossing and turning, the more Jia Wenjun thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

She remembered when she went to 1501 before the explosion, there was no one there, who opened the door for the golden retriever?Could it be that the dog drove it by himself?
But the dog has been here for a while, why didn't I see it behave like this before?Why was it abnormal last night? Could it be because of the people outside the door?
It knows the person outside the door, so it wants to take the key out to him?

Jia Wenjun shuddered, and couldn't bear to drive the dog out. After all, this was just her own speculation.A dog's thinking is different from that of a human. She uses human thinking to speculate on the dog's behavior, which is ridiculous in itself.

It seems that tomorrow I have to buy a dog cage and come back. I will put Rhubarb in it when she is not in the living room, so it should be fine.
