Chapter 375 Searching
"After all, it's not the first time."

"The silver will be back in the evening at the latest."

"But...the silver has not come back."

Su Youjin pursed her lips subconsciously, and because she pressed too hard, her already light-colored lips became even paler.

“I’ve searched here over and over again.”

"I even searched the entire campus more than once."

"I searched every classroom."

In just three days, Su Youjin didn't relax for a moment, and didn't even get enough sleep. She could only close her eyes when she was extremely tired.

But always wake up.

The rapid breathing caused a slight pain to spread in her chest.

……

Originally, the glass door of the dormitory balcony would be locked every night, but in the past few days, Su Youjin deliberately left it unlocked.

Faced with her roommate's doubts, she explained that she felt the air in the room was too stuffy.

In fact, she was worried that Yin Zi would be locked out of the room after she came back.

……

It was so cold, but she always stood on the balcony, standing there all night long.

Watching the sky turn white.

The gloomy weather was just like her unclear mood.

It was snowing heavily, and the worry in her eyes was layered like the dark bottom of the water, without a single ray of light passing through.

……

"But no, there is no silver found anywhere."

Su Youjin tilted her head slightly, and half of her face was immersed in the dim sky, making it difficult to see her expression at the moment.

Her voice was subdued and controlled.

Speak slowly, word by word.

But it makes people feel heavy for no reason.

……

Xiao Xiao looked at Su Youjin quietly for a while without saying anything.

He knew that what Su Youjin needed now was not comfort.

Because that is both pale and unhelpful.

All she could think about was the return of the money.

She just wanted the silver to come back.

……

Xiao Xiao walked around the glass greenhouse and looked around it again.

The night was dark, but it did not have much impact on Xiao Xiao.

Besides, there are lights in the greenhouse.

The warm halo slowly spread out, illuminating the world.

……

But, nothing was gained.

Xiao Xiao did not detect any other strange monster aura.

Of course, it is also possible that too much time has passed and the evil spirit has dissipated.

After all, he could only vaguely sense the scent of the silver because he knew it had indeed been there.

Or maybe it's just a psychological effect.

……

"Su Youjin... let's take a walk around here."

Originally, Xiao Xiao wanted Su Youjin to go back first, but now it was dark and cold.

Moreover, Xiao Xiao frowned. Su Youjin's skin was originally fair and clear, so the dark blue color under her eyes became more and more vivid, which was a bit "shocking".

Obviously, Su Youjin has not had a good rest since she discovered that the silver was missing three days ago.

He wanted her to go back and rest early.

However, after just calling out the name, he slowly swallowed back the words he was about to say.

Because Su Youjin turned back, even though her deep and cold eyes tried to remain calm, there were still ripples spreading out, and little bits of firefly light flickered in them.

Just looking at him straight, with hope and urgency that perhaps he himself was not aware of.

Xiao Xiao looked back silently for a while. He knew that if he insisted, Su Youjin would return to the dormitory, but... would not rest.

She would rather spend her time looking for silver.

So, he finally kept Su Youjin.

……

"it is good."

Su Youjin's face brightened, and the dullness in her amber eyes faded a little.

"Thank you, Master Xiao." Su Youjin thanked him sincerely.

It's already evening, and it gets dark even earlier in winter.

At this time, if it weren't for the street lights, it would be almost pitch dark.

It snowed on and off all day today. Although the snow has stopped now, the cold air makes breathing painful.

Every breath I took felt like a sharp knife scraping my throat.

It was not until she finished the call that Su Youjin realized that she had called Master Xiao for help at such an inopportune time? !
However, even though she felt sorry and uneasy, Su Youjin did not regret making the call when she thought of the missing silver.

Even if she was given another chance, she would still make this call.

The longer time went on, the more worried she became that something bad might happen to Yinzi.

She simply couldn't calm down.

……

Yinzi has always been well-behaved and sensible, and never does anything to make her worry.

She was afraid that the reason the silver didn't come back was because... it could no longer come back.

She shook her head vigorously, thinking that perhaps the silver was just trapped temporarily.

The money must be waiting for her somewhere.

Although Yin Zi was always very well-behaved in front of her, she knew that it actually had a bad temper.

So, she had to take the money home quickly.

Before Yin Zi gets angry.

.......
"Really thank you very much."

Su Youjin lowered her eyes and murmured her thanks again.

The slender neck is slightly bent, outlining a fragile yet elegant line, and the curly hair slides down both sides of the cheeks, revealing a quiet beauty.

She was being willful.

From childhood to adulthood, she never wanted to trouble others too much.

She alone is enough to accomplish everything.

After all, her grandparents are old, and her so-called parents are never by her side.

The only one she can rely on is herself.

……

She has been doing great.

Her excellence is obvious to all.

Her independence is amazing.

She was proud and even a little aloof.

……

She wasn't actually used to asking for help.

Or rather, as she grew up, she hadn't asked anyone for help for a long time.

So, after discovering that the silver was missing, she searched the entire huge campus by herself.

She was very tired, but what was even more unbearable was the panic that was growing in her heart and threatening to get out of control.

However, in the face of other people's care, she still subconsciously put on her usual attitude: elegant, cold, and polite.

Even though she was not approachable, her words and actions were never impeccable.

……

But there is really no other way.

It was the first time she realized, no, it was the second time she realized her own powerlessness.

She thought she was strong enough.

But reality poured cold water on her.

……

For the first time, facing the threat of death, she could only fight desperately, determined to fight to the death, so tragic and so embarrassing.

This time, the silver was missing, and she didn't even know where to look for it.

She realized that Yin Zi, who had been with her until now, and the unbreakable bond between them that she thought was actually so fragile.

She tried her best to regain this bond, but found it was all in vain.

She was becoming increasingly overwhelmed.

……

"Su Youjin."

Such a proud and dazzling girl is not suitable for such a decadent temperament.

"Let's go and find some silver."

Xiao Xiao smiled faintly, the light in his eyes was warm and determined.

It makes people feel inexplicably at ease.
