"Xixi, you arrived at school so early?" Zhou Xiaoying looked at the bulge of the quilt and said.

"I also bought so much food...... Xixi? Zhu Xi? slept so dead...... "Zhou Xiaoying couldn't wake people up, Gu Zizi rummaged through the bag, and if there was no agreement, he just gave up.

Zhu Xi didn't react at all, Zhou Xiaoying only felt bored in her heart, and turned her head to pack her things.

She brought a lot of things from home, and a packet of lotus root powder, which was sent by her grandmother in the countryside, and she didn't know if it was delicious, she wanted to make a cup to try, but the water room was on the first floor, far away and remote, she didn't want to go, and she was used to speaking.

"Xixi, do you have boiling water?"

Zhu Xi didn't know when she was already standing behind her, she didn't get a response, she turned her head and was taken aback, and said with a sharp voice: "You scared me to death, why didn't you ......make a sound at all?"

Zhu Xi had two black clouds under his eyes, his face was yellow, he looked like he hadn't slept well, his expression was a little sluggish, and he couldn't move his lips to speak: "No...... No boiling water. ”

"Then if you get boiling water, bring me a pot by the way." Zhou Xiaoying said what she said was if, but she had already handed the hot water bottle to her.

Zhu Xi took it in his arms with both hands, turned around and went out, but he didn't take his own.

"How did you lose your soul and ......" Zhou Xiaoying guessed that she was probably told by her family again, and she didn't take it to heart.

Maybe it's just a pot of water that is convenient to come and go, and Zhu Xi came back quickly.

"Thank you." Zhou Xiaoying took it with a smile.

The water temperature was just right, the lotus root powder was brewed into a transparent paste, Zhu Xi looked at the white smoke with an expressionless face, and Zhou Xiaoying smelled the fragrance and looked very satisfied.

She took a bite and wrinkled her face again, faintly.

She then turned back to Zhu Xi: "Xixi, I remember that you have rock candy, bring me a few." ”

Zhu Xi, as always, did not refuse at all, found rock candy from the cabinet and handed it to her.

Zhou Xiaoying saw a different kind of purple on her nails, and she didn't look closely, so she smiled: "Your nail color is quite white." ”

It is estimated that it was only said by the family that he did a nail art privately, Zhou Xiaoying thought, Zhu Xi's family has always been strict.

The rock sugar fell into the lotus root flour, and the wetness hit the sugar shell, and the surface cracked a crack, making a crackling sound.

Very light.

"Do you want to eat together in the evening?" Zhu Xi asked.

She remembered that Mo Bei asked this question yesterday, and she agreed without hesitation.

Zhou Xiaoying always felt that her tone made her very uncomfortable, and she said perfunctorily without looking back: "Let's talk about it, wait for them to come back and discuss it together." ”

She didn't see Zhu Xi behind her tilting her head unnaturally.

Suddenly, the wind rose, and the clouds soon obscured the sky and the sun, and the light suddenly dimmed.

The tree outside the window was swept off a few leaves by the wind and swirled into the balcony.

"It's going to rain again......"

Fang Xinzi had already hurriedly put the dried clothes in, there were still two leaves on them, the white fabric was rubbed with a little ash, the area was not large, but it was very eye-catching, she pinched the piece of cloth and rubbed it a few times, trying to remove the dirty things, the effect was slight, she sighed helplessly: "If there were so many rains during military training, I wouldn't have been so tanned, and now every time I want to go out for a meal, it starts to rain, isn't this against people?" ”

Mo Bei felt funny when he heard her complaint: "Why don't you try to say that you don't go out now, and see if it will be clear." ”

"Don't laugh at me......" She glared at Mo Bei and asked, "You really don't want to go out?" Wang Yue: They were all waiting there. ”

"No, I hate going out on a rainy day."

"Don't go to your evening self-study."

Coincidentally, after five o'clock, the rain became heavier and heavier, and it had the momentum of smashing the ground out of the pit without stopping at all. The counselor posted a message in the class group saying that the evening self-study can be voluntary, and if it is inconvenient to participate, do not go out, and safety is the priority.

Only fools go to self-study.

When Mo Bei went downstairs to get takeout, there was already water flowing on the ground, and this trend continued, and the water on the side of the road could pass through the instep of his feet for another hour.

She almost slipped on her slippers, but her aunt happened to see it with her mop, and thought about putting out the sign that was carefully slipping.

The rain stopped at eight o'clock, leaving a few sparse and sparse underground, cold air came in from the window, and I don't know if it was because I was staying alone, it was very cold.

"Mobei!" Before the door opened, the sound sounded first, Xu Xingyan was drenched and nodded the tip of her hair, wet hanging on the edge of her collar, she carried two bags in her hands and raised them above her head, and walked in excitedly: "My mother made mochi and brown sugar cakes." ”

Since the beginning of school, she has eaten a lot of things sent by Mo Bei's family, I heard that they are all made by Bei's mother, and her parents heard about it, and they also made some good snacks to bring them.

People always want to share their goodness, and Xu Xingyan couldn't help but want to ask Mobei Amway as soon as she entered the door.

Mo Bei got out of bed and washed his hands, took a piece of mochi, wrapped in soybean flour on the outside, and sesame candy on the inside.

Xu Xingyan looked at her expectantly, "Is it delicious?" ”

"It's delicious."

"I also bought duck necks." Fang Xinzi put the stool in the center of the dormitory, put the things he bought on the same way, and stuffed a bottle of Coke for Mo Bei.

Wang Yue walked at the end, and no one paid attention to it and climbed straight to the bed and pulled the mosquito net tightly.

Mo Bei looked at them suspiciously.

"I don't know...... Xu Xingyan whispered, "I was fine when I was eating, and suddenly I stopped talking." ”

"Where have you been?"

"Didn't you go anywhere, can you still go shopping in such a heavy rain?"

Fang Xinzi raised his hand and said stupidly, "I think it's my problem." ”

The two looked at her.

"When I came back, the old lady who passed by the night market and fried ham sausages actually came out of the stall...... "She said more and more lightly, "after buying it, she seemed to be like this." ”

The three of them didn't speak again, eating silently.

Although Mo Bei didn't understand the situation, he didn't think it would be.

The sound of conversation was gone, and the dormitory suddenly fell silent, as if there was no one left.

Wang Yue pressed his back against the wall, the cold temperature stuck to the flesh through his clothes, and his body couldn't stop shaking.

She kept rubbing the back of her neck until it was red and hot.

The scene on the street kept flashing in my head.

The old lady who sold ham sausages was slow, and when she was waiting for them by the lamppost, she suddenly felt that someone had been watching her, and the skin on the back of her neck began to heat and ache so much that she looked back, and there was a person standing in the depths of the alley, and the dim light could only show a dark figure.

It was motionless, staring at itself.

This sense of peeping has always followed her, even if she is now covering herself tightly, there is still a vague line of sight crawling around.

Not many people will take this kind of thing to heart, they may feel that they are making a fuss and are suspicious, and they can only give a few painless comforts.

Wang Yue covered the back of her neck with her hands and buried her face in her knees.

……

The old campus in the north of the city has also been overturned and built in recent years, separated by a road, with tall and beautiful buildings on one side and low and old houses on the other.

A road, separating the old and new urban districts, abounds in such opposition.

Xu Minglang knocked on the door for five minutes, but there was no movement inside.

"Break down." Tang Song said.

The old-fashioned wooden door kicked open.

There was a foul smell in my face, like the rotten smell of the mud in the gutter after the rain, and there might be something strange in it that was rotten together, and it had to be a combination of meat and vegetables.

The orientation of the room made Xu Minglang not see the layout of the inside clearly, and then he looked at it, and almost vomited out his lunch.

The old lady didn't know how long it had been hanging, and the flesh on the back of her hand seemed to have shrunk after drying, wrapping bones and earthworm-like blood vessels.

There was a hook on the ceiling that used to hang a ceiling fan, but now there was a hemp rope hanging from it, and the person was lowered.

It was too hot, and the strangulation marks were the first to rot, and there were some twists and turns when the people were released, the rope stuck to the skin, and now there was a circle of rotten flesh on it.

There were too many people outside the house, and the little girl who interned didn't dare to vomit at the door, nor did she dare to enter the house, squatting on the steps and suffocating her face blue.

Tang Song made a note for the neighbor on the side: "Her name is Wang Yunhua, right?" The flowers of the clouds of the clouds? What about her family? Does no one care about her? ”

"She just moved here a few years ago, and a few relatives helped move things. I don't know the specifics, she seems to be a son, she hasn't seen her back, she has always lived alone, the old woman's personality is not good, she doesn't have a good word in her mouth, and the people nearby don't like her, so I live opposite," the neighbor pointed, "or my daughter came back and said that she hadn't seen anyone for a few days, and I, I also knocked on the door for a long time before anyone answered the police." ”

"Okay, thank you."

Xu Minglang found a yellowed phone book from the drawer of the bedside table in the room, with a few numbers in it, and Tang Songsai gave it to the newcomer who doubted his life: "Call them one by one and find someone to claim them." ”

The intern responded, and his hands trembled and almost didn't pinch it.

He frowned, "How long have you been here?" ”

"Hurry, it's been almost three months." She stumbled as if the body was about to be carried out, and she shook and jumped into the car like a rabbit to make a call.

Tang Song somehow suddenly thought of Mo Bei.

“……”

Mo Bei was silent for a while before he reacted, this guy made a phone call early in the morning just to ask about the first experience of the ghost?

"Ah...... I can see it since I was a child," she can't remember when the first time was, "I didn't know how to be scared when I was young, and I was used to seeing it when I was scared." ”

"Most ghosts are no different from people, there are not so many blue-faced fangs and bleeding."

"When I was in the second grade, my neighbor's uncle died, and my uncle asked, do you know where my uncle went? He was dead, and the urn was on the table, but he sat in his usual place of eating, no different, smiling at me, talking to me, and asking me what I had for dinner......"

Did the homework be written?

Are grandparents coming?

Mo Bei knew from that day that the boundary of death was actually very obvious, but she stepped on it, and she saw too much, and there didn't seem to be much difference between the living and the dead.

It was still very early, the sun had just risen, Mo Bei leaned on the back of the chair, the sweat on his body slowly dried, a little sticky and itchy, a gust of wind came, his sore legs after running, and his wet breathing all became a kind of comfort under tiredness.

She has seen people die, and she has also seen dead people, so she once fell into a strange circle, when she is sad, she is not as sad as others, and when she is afraid, she is not as afraid as others, and they are sad that those who are gone will never come back, but Mo Bei can always see it after maybe a corner.

Maybe there was some horror in the unspeakable middle of the night, but it was immediately replaced by something else, because ......

"It's noisy, and the little horn is endless. There is a pond in my hometown village, and once when I passed by, I saw a girl squatting next to me playing in the water, she was on the other side of the bank, and suddenly came next to me, "There is no one on the playground, Mo Bei has no worries at all," she said to me, don't pretend, sister, I know you saw me. ”

A very terrifying story made her soulless, Tang Song couldn't help laughing: "What happened later? ”

"She touched my house at night, squatted at the head of the bed and talked about the fun and benefits of playing in the water all night......"

She heard him laugh softly twice, and then curled the corners of her mouth: "Tang Song." ”

"Huh?"

The sleepy nasal voice came from the earpiece into her ears, and she was inexplicably more lazy, and she couldn't help lowering her voice: "Aren't you sleepy?" ”

He was silent for two seconds: "Sleepy." ”

"Why don't you sleep?"

"Can't sleep......"

He didn't say why he couldn't sleep, and there seemed to be some huge grievance hidden in his silent breath, which was silently digested.

Mo Bei hung up the phone and sat in the chair for a long time, unable to be friends with sentimental people, which made people feel sad.

She had just finished her run, and the blood was rushing and she sat down, and now she stood up and her calves twitched violently, and she hissed, turned her ankles on tiptoe, and walked back stiffly.

After taking a shower, they all got up, Xu Xingyan and Fang Xinzi were packing their things home, there was only half a day of class on Friday, and the morning class was over at ten o'clock, and it was convenient for them to go home, and they just happened to be able to catch up for lunch. And the teaching building is too far away from the dormitory, one is the easternmost and the other is the westernmost, and it takes nearly 20 minutes to walk a trip.

"Brother Bei, Wang Yue will accompany you this week, and you have to treat others well."

Mo Bei seemed to smile: "Shall I do it?" ”

Fang Xinzi twisted his head and buried his head in Wang Yue's arms: "Yueyue, if we are not here, you have to protect yourself, you must not let the wild men outside spoil Ang?" ”

Wang Yue didn't have much energy, and pushed her away absentmindedly.
