Chapter 6: Day 2
The morning sun sprinkled on Zhao Bai'an's pillow and pulled her out of her sleep. It was a good thing to wake up last night.
Everything in the dream seems to be vivid. Zhao Bai'an touched the hair on one side, naturally there was nothing, but the touch of the love hairpin seemed to be still there.
It turned out to be a dream.
Playground, roses, red queens, no, the appearance of fire Miki was clearly visible in front of her eyes. She knew that according to her past experience, even the clearest dreams would suddenly dissipate shortly after waking up, leaving only emotions behind.
Zhao Bai'an closed her eyes and carefully recalled what happened as if she turned around, recalling the conversation between her and Huo Miki a second ago, word by word.
The island of hearts, the red castle, and the Red Queen that is full of Alice elements, do not match the world's perception......
The familiar feeling is here again.
But this time, it's in reality.
Ah, yes!
A certain string of memory is plucked.
At that time, it was the first time Zhao Bai'an finished reading "Alice in Wonderland", and she could still clearly feel the inexplicable throbbing at that time. After reading the story, the tossing and turning, the beautiful fantasy of the girl was vividly displayed at that time.
As the saying goes, there are thoughts and dreams every day. At that time, she built such a red heart island for herself, which was her own fairyland. Because she loves this call too much, the white and black characters in the book automatically become a colorful world in her eyes. From time to time, from time to time, Zhao Baian will come to the red heart island that belongs to her.
- "I'm like this because you want me to be ......"
- "It's not just me, this Island of Hearts, it's all because of your preferences, your wishes, that you became this ......"
I see! That's what it means! Miki is right. Everything on Red Heart Island came according to Zhao Bai'an's wishes.
The girl who loves Alice's story too much, weaves the world she wants most in her dreams.
"It's home, too." Zhao Baian sighed and said to himself, "It's really not wrong at all." ”
Now, she still loves Alice's story. Translations, reprints, 100th anniversary editions, etc. in various Chinese languages, she has collected an entire bookcase without leaving behind. When the color of life around you is fading, you can take out a random copy and start reading, and you will immediately enter the wonderful world of rabbit hole. From small to large, as always.
But Zhao Bai'an, Zhao Bai'an, have you forgotten the dream you built like this?
Zhao Baian couldn't help laughing at himself and wryly. Although I haven't dreamed for many years, I shouldn't have been.
Since the first time he read this story, Zhao Bai'an has never felt that the Red Queen is as arrogant as the world thinks. The more I went in, the more I felt that she was cute.
It is precisely because of her subconscious and surface consciousness that Huo Miki is like this, right? However, such a dual personality did surprise Zhao Bai'an, and sure enough, the things in the dream, no matter how good they were, could not be completely controlled. Closing his eyes, the appearance of Huo Miki being angry and stomping his feet suddenly appeared.
"Puff......" Zhao Baian couldn't help but laugh out loud.
And then...... Elsewhere? What does this mean exactly? Huo Miki's words made Zhao Bai'an puzzled.
And the Red Queen, no, it was Fire Miki who appeared in her dreams...... Even if it was her dream, it was too strange.
The details of the dream began to fade away, but no matter how it was, the main body of the dream—the playground, the red castle, and the fire Miki—were still vivid. Zhao Bai'an thought that she shouldn't forget it again this time.
"Get up and assemble!" Teacher Zhu's crisp voice came from the loudspeaker installed in the corridor, "Please meet at yesterday's meeting place at ten o'clock." ”
Did "Enmu ......" accidentally sleep in the cage?
The combination of residential life and radio can't help but make Zhao Baian dream of returning to high school directly. It's just that at that time, there was not such a vivid voice on the radio, but the news was broadcast early in the morning every day. There's no such thing as a 10-o'clock gathering, and the early morning city radio that wakes you up at 6 o'clock during the day is really tireless.
Glancing at the alarm clock, it was only five minutes past nine o'clock. Don't go back to sleep, anyway, it only takes half an hour at most from getting up to washing up.
Yes! But now it's not a situation at home, and I can't grasp the rhythm of other girls at all. If 100 girls want to wash at the same time, the time is probably quite tight. Ay! I don't feel too sleepy, so let's get up now.
After Zhao Bai'an thought about it in his heart, a carp got up from the bed.
Isn't that quite spiritual, she laughed to herself.
Ma Zimei and Wang Nan were still struggling in the quilt, Yang Zichen's bed was silent, and from Zhao Bai'an's angle, it was impossible to see if there was anyone in the quilt. See Huang Han again......
Hey, lie, huh? Huang Han was completely ready, and was sitting on a chair looking at something.
"What time did you get up? It's too early. Zhao Bai'an whispered to Huang Han, "Or do you not sleep at all?" ”
Huang Han put down the book and looked up at her: "Maybe it's a habit to get up early." After all, the teacher didn't tell you what time to meet yesterday. It's always good to be prepared early. ”
That's a bit premature. What time do you wake up?
The school did not ask them to bring any personal belongings (except for a pillow brought by Zhao Bai'an). Yesterday, Haichuan sent each of them relevant daily items and clothes, including a change of underwear and socks. I have to say, this is too thoughtful.
"All the items sent this time should be cherished! Especially the cute little socks. This is a very popular souvenir in Haichuan University! It's often out of stock. "Yesterday, what Teacher Zhu said when he sent the items rang in Zhao Bai'an's ears again. Isn't this out-of-stock really because only this sock is affordable and everything else is too expensive?
Tuition fees at OceanChuan University are notoriously cheap. As a private university, it charges tuition fees that are comparable to those of public universities. At the same time, students do not need to pay for any activities themselves, which is almost like doing charity. Therefore, the extremely high price of souvenirs has become a puzzling point.
It is said that when the school was just starting to plan souvenirs, it asked a student with great artistic talent to work together to design all the souvenirs. Facts have proved that the artistic attainments of this predecessor are indeed few people can match, and I heard that the souvenirs of Haichuan University are like works of art (Zhao Bai'an naturally has not seen them with his own eyes). But for some reason, the senior didn't charge any design-related fees, but asked to price the souvenir himself. The extremely high price made the school have to negotiate with him many times, but before a final agreement could be reached, the artistic senior died suddenly. In order to commemorate him, the school adopted such an unreasonable price.
This is Zhao Bai'an's most reliable post among the relevant information he can find on the Internet, but no matter how you look at it, he is still making up a story. It's a pity that Haichuan University did not give any official response.
Kindness? So why are these socks so cheap, you ask? Or is it relatively cheap?
That's obviously because this sock wasn't designed by the senior. It was later reluctantly launched by the school in order to change the embarrassment that almost no one buys souvenirs. And the senior's design is partial to art and the like, how can it be possible to design socks.
But since Teacher Zhu has said so, Enmu, should I really collect it?
Whether to wear socks or not today is really confusing.
In the end, Zhao Baian still put on his socks and went to wash.
The bathroom was bustling, although they were all faces that had just woken up without any decoration, but inexplicably felt that each one was beautiful. It is full of the atmosphere of a young girl.
After washing, Yang Zichen's bed was still the same as before, and there was no movement.
Could it be that she also got up early and left the dormitory before Zhao Bai'an woke up?
Zhao Bai'an walked into her bed and took a closer look.
Hey, this guy, you slept so soundly! Because he is too petite, he can't see it if he doesn't look carefully in the quilt. And Teacher Zhu's broadcast, coupled with the hustle and bustle of the whole building in the morning, didn't wake her up at all. That's a lot of sleep.
"...... Em "Nine-forty, it's almost time to wake her up."
"Hey, Zichen." Zhao Bai'an shook her.
No response.
"Zi Chen!" Zhao Baian shook her vigorously.
No response.
"Zichen !!"
Nothing happens at all.
This guy, isn't it?
Zhao Bai'an sighed her snort with his hand. What, I'm still alive.
After the four of them tried and failed many times, they had to give up. It seems that he can only wait for Yang Zichen to wake up naturally.
