A woman dressed in white with short hair was sitting at a desk with her back to him.

At night, the moonlight is like a veil, and the woman is lying on the table with her hands, motionless.

No lights, no sounds.

There was silence all around.

Lin Sheng lay on the bed, his head wrapped in the quilt, and looked sideways at the woman at the table.

He thought it was a little strange, he remembered that he had gone to bed at half past nine, and now it was three or four o'clock in the morning at most.

This was his bedroom, and when he woke up, he saw a woman sitting in front of his desk.

Where did this woman come from.....?

He squinted, nearly five hundred degrees of his eyes, and could only see that it was a woman in white, who seemed to be very young.

My mother never wears white, and my sister is going to college in another place, so she always wears a school uniform.

It's eerily quiet.

Lin Sheng frowned and tried to blink his eyes, trying to see who the woman sitting there was.

But it was too dark at night to see anything clearly.

And what made him feel even more terrifying was that his body couldn't move!

In a trance, he seemed to hear someone talking and chatting. The voice was behind him, next to the bed where he slept, out of sight.

The voice was so close that it was as if the person who was talking was staring at him and leaning against his back.

He could imagine that there were two people who were talking, staring at him with strange and cold eyes, and chattering with inaudible words in their mouths.

Lin Sheng felt goosebumps pop up all of a sudden.

Click.

Another crunch rang out.

It seemed like the door was open and someone had come in.

All the sounds disappeared in an instant, and Lin Sheng came back to his senses and saw the woman in white at the table standing up slowly and silently, her back to him motionless.

Her long white sleeves resemble the sleeves of a long dress, loose and empty. The movements of the body are as stiff and precise as a machine.

“.... I..."

Lin Sheng wanted to speak, but he was horrified to find that he couldn't even make a sound.

His body was like his whole body was cramping, and he was uncontrollably tense and trembling. A large expanse of cold sweat seeped through his vest, and he felt his teeth tremble violently involuntarily.

Click, click.

There was another crisp sound of footsteps at the door, and the footsteps stopped at the end of the bed, as if the person had come to stand still.

Lin Sheng was terrified, he tried to retract his body into the quilt, tried to relax his body as much as possible, wanted to lie flat, tried to make it impossible for anyone to come and the woman in white to notice that there was someone on the bed.

He felt that as long as he tried to lie as flat as possible, maybe they would think that the bed was just a thicker quilt.

But his body couldn't move. Severe cramps in my legs and back. So much so that he had to do everything in his power to suppress the tremors and pain.

Click, click, click....

He heard footsteps coming towards the bedside.

The fear in Lin Sheng's heart reached the extreme.

He wanted to close his eyes and keep himself from seeing what was approaching, but the inexplicable horror prevented him from blinking.

Burst!!!

Suddenly, a pair of cold hands reached into the quilt and grabbed his feet.

Yes!!!!!

Lin Sheng screamed violently and sat up upright from the bed, he was covered in sweat, his face was pale, his eyes were wide open, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.

Huhuhuhu.....

He lowered his head and gasped for breath, breathing in the fresh air.

"I.... I had that dream again....." He bent his leg and touched the spot he had just been caught by his cold hand.

There was nothing there, just as usual, no scars, no pain.

But the feeling just now is still vivid and clear.

Outside the window, the morning was shining, and it was already bright.

Lin Sheng turned over and got out of bed, just as someone knocked on the door outside.

Knock knock.

"What were you just calling?"

My sister's voice was a little worried, coming from outside the door.

Lin Sheng touched his forehead with both hands, and his head was covered with sweat. He took a deep breath.

"It's fine, just a nightmare. ”

"It's okay. Lately, you've been surprised, is there something going on at school?" asked my sister again.

"It's okay..... Really, just had a nightmare. Lin Sheng was silent and replied.

"Breakfast is ready, get up and drink some hot milk, people will be more comfortable. My sister comforted her and turned to leave.

Lin Sheng sat on the edge of the bed, recalling the dream just now.

It wasn't the first time he'd had this dream.

For three days in a row, it was the same dream. In the end, it's all the same. He was caught by the foot and could not move.

Subconsciously touching his feet, Lin Sheng stood up, walked to the desk, and opened the curtains.

The blazing sunlight suddenly illuminates the entire bedroom, and even the dust in the air can be seen.

He is an ordinary high school student, who has been in Hui'an Middle School for three years, and is about to take the college entrance examination immediately.

My father is a grocery store, and my mother works as a kindergarten teacher, and the combined income of the whole family does not exceed 100,000 yuan a year.

My sister is still studying in college in other places, and she will leave in a few days, so she is just going home for a few days.

"So, most of the time, I'm still home alone. ”

Lin Sheng was silent and stretched out his hand to open the door.

Outside, there is a white, sunlit corridor.

The sound of my sister busy washing things came from the kitchen, and it was crisp and pleasant.

Lin Sheng walked to the kitchen, picked up the hot milk from the counter, and drank it in one gulp.

Sister Lin Xiao never likes to dress up, she is always wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, not a tight type, just ordinary loose pants.

The only thing that is somewhat peculiar is that she has waist-length black hair, gentle and quiet light temperament.

Lin Sheng put down the milk cup, reached out and picked up a piece of hot bread, and took small bites to eat.

"Mom and Dad are not here today, I'm in charge of cooking, but I'm leaving tomorrow, you arrange your own life, don't worry about it all the time. ”

My sister turned around and took off her apron, sat down on the high stool by the cupboard, and took a sip of a glass of milk, with a broken thought in her mouth.

"Yes. Lin Sheng responded, not knowing what to say.

"Is my pocket money enough? I worked part-time during the holidays to earn a little, and it was enough, but I didn't remember to ask for it. "Sister Lin Xiao always likes to worry, worry about this and worry about that, she has been this since she was a child.

"Enough. ”

"........" Lin Xiao thought for a while, "Do you want any special products?" There was an exhibition at the school before, I went to visit, it was not bad, it was a characteristic of Kongxi, if you like, I can mail you a porcelain doll, it is said that the porcelain doll over there is finely made, and many of my classmates like it....."

Lin Xiao began to think about it again.

Lin Sheng listened silently, and only after his sister had been chattering for more than ten minutes did he respond quietly.

"There was nothing to want. ”

"Well... Don't be so bored all the time, go out and socialize more when you have time, it's not a girl's favorite thing to do all the time. Lin Xiao was helpless.

Like other friends in the dormitory, she is also a person who attaches great importance to her family, and her brother, who has always had a dull personality, has become the object of her greatest worry.

When she thought of the eldest brother in her friend's family, because of his dull personality, she couldn't find a wife in her forties, and she felt a sense of urgency in her heart.

"I see. "Lin Sheng has always been this character.

The two didn't say anything for a while, just lowered their heads and ate breakfast quietly.

The bread on the plate quickly bottomed out, and the milk cups quickly emptied.

The elder sister put her hand down and looked up at Lin Sheng.

"Shenshen, I'm in college, I have my own part-time job, the money is enough, if you are difficult, you can call me. ”

"Got it, sister. Lin Sheng bowed his head and replied.

"Heavy. Lin Xiao suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on Lin Sheng's left shoulder.

Shen Shen is Lin Sheng's nickname at home, and only the closest people will call it that.

"When I was away, you were a man, and you helped your parents a lot, and it was not easy for them now. Something happened to my mother's kindergarten before, and a child was lost, which happened to be the class my mother was in charge of, and now it's still being dealt with. Although my mother is fine, she is also responsible for it and her salary is deducted...."

Lin Sheng nodded.

"Sister, don't worry, I'm fine here. ”

"Then why is your face so bad?" Lin Xiao said worriedly.

"Is my face very bad?" Lin Sheng was stunned.

"Just go to the bathroom and see for yourself. Lin Xiao said helplessly, letting go of his shoulder.

Lin Sheng turned around and quickly walked out of the kitchen and into the bathroom.

When I looked up, the mirror reflected his current appearance.

A pale and bloodless haggard face with gray lips.

"Didn't you rest last night, do you want to go to sleep again?" Lin Xiao's worried voice came from the bathroom door.

Lin Sheng touched his lips, only the texture of dry and hard, peeling.

"I... I had a nightmare last night. It's okay, it'll be fine in a while. ”

He didn't want his family to worry, even though the nightmare was fairly real. But his tone still seemed understated.

"Okay, I'll go out first, I have something to do, you come back from school in a while, and you will eat hot food at noon, don't worry about me, my parents will go to grandpa's side today, and you will be the only one at home." Remember to bring your keys with you when you go out. ”

"Got it. Lin Sheng responded calmly.

Soon there was a sound of the door closing behind him.

The whole house suddenly fell silent.

Lin Sheng stood alone in front of the mirror, looking at his face, he didn't know why, he suddenly felt that the nightmare last night would not pass so simply.

"Hope is just an ordinary dream. ”

Lin Sheng turned around and walked out of the bathroom and into the living room.

On the long wooden table in the living room were two hundred-dollar bills.

The green paper glows with different colors and lusters at different angles.

Lin Sheng stretched out his hand and squeezed the money in his hand, but did not speak.

Because this is pocket money for the next two months.

Before, his pocket money was 100 yuan a month, and the school prepared food and everything.

And now these two hundred yuan will take care of it for two months. That is, twenty-five yuan a week, spread evenly, only more than three yuan a day....

"I can only use more than three dollars a day.... You have to save money. Lin Sheng got up and walked towards his room.

In the room, I changed into a school uniform, and on the left chest of the school uniform with white lines on a blue background, there was also a school emblem, which was a simple pattern of a rooster with an independent rooster, and two big characters of Hui'an were written below.

Lin Sheng packed his schoolbag, changed into ordinary sneakers that were also blue and white, and then hurried out the door.

The aunts and uncles who were mixed with vegetable sellers walked out of the community and got on the old bus at the bus stop next to the gate.

Then he staggered and drove for more than ten minutes, and finally squeezed out in the middle of a large group of office workers, jumped out of the car and rushed into the school, and rushed into the classroom just in time for the class bell to ring.
