Huang Xiaolong, who deliberately made the sound of getting up and walked over, but the knock on the door disappeared suddenly. Huang Xiaolong looked back at me and asked loudly again, “Who?”
There was no sound outside. Huang Xiaolong muttered in purpose and walked back to the edge of the bed. Just when he made a gesture to me,I hadn't have time to understand the meaning of Huang Xiaolong. There was a knock on the door again which was very rhythmical.
"I’m coming." Huang Xiaolong replied, taking out two yellow symbol papers from the jacket on the edge of the bed, he handed me one of them before walking to the door. One hand was holding the paper behind him, the other hand was opening the door.
"Zi-ya," the door was opened. I couldn't see what was outside the door, but I found Huang Xiaolong paused. Then he stood there like a sculpture immovably. The hands behind his back were slowly relaxing, even the paper was quick dropped to the ground.
I was nervous, although I didn't know what Huang Xiaolong saw, but his current state made me think of the villagers outside the docks.
I walked over in hurry. Although I was very curious, I dared not to look outside the door. I just looked at the ground and glance at it. It seemed no one was outside. I gave a hard push at Huang Xiaolong, “Shit! Are you a fool?"
Huang Xiaolong was pushed by me away from the door. Just as Huang Xiaolong left the door, Huang Xiaolong's dull face became vivid. He opened his mouth to say, “outside...”
I interrupted immediately, “It is windy and cold outside.”
Huang Xiaolong also reacted quickly and closed the door. And then he took out his mobile phone and wrote, "There is nothing outside, but it is very strange. When I opened the door, my mind was instantly blank, we should be careful."
I nodded and pulled Huang Xiaolong next to the window. Just when we started to watch outside from a crack of the wall. “Ah” I was scared involuntarily, and Huang Xiaolong covered my mouth quickly.
My whole body shivered uncontrollably, a chilling down on my spine. Just when I was trying to look outside, there were a pair of eyes looking at me through the gap of the windows. I didn’t expect it and I was scared.
It’s obviously that Huang Xiaolong also saw it,so his face didn’t look good and he was no longer typing on his mobile phone. He said in a low voice, “We have been discovered, what shall we do next?”
I shook my head. The whole person had just recovered from the shock. Now that we were obviously been discovered, the following things were completely different from our original plans. That time, I did not know what to do.
Outside the window, there was still no trace of sound. It seemed that the villagers were still standing there. No one left.
I felt headache as if my head had become as big as a bucket, I could not open the door. If I opened it, I would be as silly as Huang Xiaolong just now. Perhaps I might go to the pier like other villagers.
But there was something peaking outside the window that was not sure whether a ghost or person. It was equivalent that we were trapped in the room and we couldn't get any information from outside.
I looked at the room carefully. Although the entire room was wooden, it was very strong and tight without gaps.
As I was still thinking, Huang Xiaolong walked quickly to the window and opened it heavily. “Bang” a sound of the window hitting the wall came out when it was suddenly opened, the peeking shadow outside had completely disappeared.
Huang Xiaolong’s sudden action scared me and I went to him in a hurry. Now I was very worried about Huang Xiaolong was controlled, but Huang Xiaolong looked out of the window and didn’t look back, he whispered to me quickly “The eye is deliberately letting us be exposed. You get back to bed, I am exposed."
I wanted to ask about the situation very much, but it was obviously not the right time. I returned to my bed soundlessly and covered myself with a quilt before I looked out. The villagers on the dock were slowly turning their heads back. When I was covering my quilt,all eyes turned to Huang Xiaolong.
I didn’t know what Huang Xiaolong was thinking. He quickly folded the paper in his hand into a small triangle under the window sill, then stuffed it into the crevice of the window sill. Then he stretched out his hands, waved and greeted to the villagers on the pier.
He seemed to be afraid to wake me up from sleep, deliberately suppressing the voice, "What are you doing?"
No villager answered him, but all villagers raised their hands and waved to Huang Xiaolong to let him go with them.
Huang Xiaolong was obviously not be controlled, but he opened the door and went out. Just at the moment he went out, Huang Xiaolong made a careful gesture toward me in a obscure way.
When Huang Xiaolong went out, he closed the door. I even heard the sound of lock-up. Then Huang Xiaolong appeared outside. While he was walking toward the pier, he was still greeting the villagers.
"Is this a special activity of yours?"
I didn't understand what Huang Xiaolong really wanted to do. I had to hide in the quilt and watch him approaching to the villagers slowly. I could clearly see that at the moment Huang Xiaolong stepped into the dock. He became stiff and then did not say anything. His movement was no longer smooth.
I tended to go on watching, but a sound "Zi-ya" came from the door. The door which had been locked, was opened in ease. I closed my eyes quickly and thought for a while. I kept the symbols paper in my hands carefully under my body.
A slight footstep came out, and then a heavy fishy stink passed through my nose. It was not the smell of a fishermen. Even the seafood that had just been picked up from sea couldn’t be so severe.
I feel that someone pulled up the quilt on me gently, and then put it down again. Just standing on my side so that the smell of the sea was getting more and more stronger, but I could not dare to move.
A long time later, I heard the sound of footsteps leaving and closing the door. I was consciously relieved and was about to open my eyes, but my heart shocked, I kept closing my eyes. I also pretended to turn my legs.
Not that I didn't want to see it, but that the strong fishy stink hadn't dissipated. I was afraid that the voice of going out was made out deliberately.
Sure enough, after a while, the strong jellyfish dissipated slowly, and the door once again came out the sound of opening and closing. I opened my eyes slowly and looked around. There was no one in the room. The window which I did not know when it was put down had blocked my eyesight.
I did not have any pause. I picked up the phone on the bedside and sent the message to Wu Jian about what happened just now. I put down the phone and just breathed a breath. I was frightening to find that at the end of my bed, there was a person looking at me. Seeing I looked at him, he smiled.
