Chapter 2: Nightmares

At half past seven in the morning of the next day, Chen Feibai let Huo Wei understand the spirit of dedication and dedication of contemporary newcomer volunteers.

Huo Wei's mobile phone has never rang at this point since he bought it. After dozens of "ding ding dong" sounded one after another, there was still a momentum to continue to ring.

He had no choice but to get up and take a look, the forty-seven messages were all sent by Chen Haibai alone, Huo Wei's temples jumped, and when a newcomer encounters an emergency, there will be a lot of, which is understandable.

He took a deep breath, squeezed a little patience out of what was left of humanity, clicked on the messages and read them one by one, and almost lost his breath.

Chen Feibai not only talks a lot of nonsense, she combines interludes, flashbacks and other narrative techniques to describe to him what she dreamed about yesterday.

Although this little thing would not make his bell ring percussion, she had to break down a sentence into five or six dialog boxes, and finally added that he could turn off the air conditioner, otherwise he would catch a cold.

Or do you need to say it? It was everyone who came to persuade him.

He had messy hair, his face was as bad as if he was about to kill, he looked up and glanced at the ward, except for the pouting bear lying on the ground, the bouquet sent by the ward yesterday was cleaned, and he was irritable and was smoothed by the efficiency of the hospital, listening to the sound of the stable operation of the air conditioner, he finally closed his eyes and returned to the quilt with satisfaction.

Before losing consciousness, in order to prevent Chen Haibai from chattering again, he stretched out two fingers from the quilt, pinched them lightly in the direction of the mobile phone out of thin air, and silently retracted into the quilt.

After he fell asleep, the bedside mobile phone screen flashed a few times, but the moment the bell rang, it was like someone choking his throat, and there was no sound.

The cool breeze of the air conditioner slowly blew through the shrunken fluff of the teddy bear on the ground, caressing his brows, and Huo Wei seemed to be having a bad time in his dreams.

The ward was as cold as a dark ice coffin, and he slept quietly in it, like a living dead who was still breathing.

***

When Chen Feibai was packing up her things, she saw the Huo Wei information given to her by the association. is such a big living person, but his personal information is only two thin sheets of paper.

She didn't know what to do with the information of the volunteer after being hired, but she casually threw away some unpleasant words, and in the end she could only learn from Bai Yuanshan's example, folded it twice and clipped it into the back of the volunteer card.

The volunteer card instantly bulged, she pinched the plastic card holder, and the association only told her the reason for Huo Wei's hospitalization: loss of ability due to accidental drowning. Nothing else is mentioned because of the protection of the privacy of the volunteers.

Although in the general perception, the ability should be innate, almost the same as instinct, but the diagnosis is like this, everyone can only default to him as an original ability, now an ordinary person.

The superiority of the capable person will make people feel sorry for him, and the sudden disappearance of talent will not be an easy thing to accept.

The Huo Wei that Chen Haibai saw was just an enthusiastic young man who was a little lazy, her career started from him, and she couldn't imagine what Huo Wei would be like when he was a capable person.

At least he was recuperating in the hospital, and he was a miserable person.

Chen Feibai's volunteer work went on successfully for a week, during which Huo Wei never replied to her messages. Every day, while waiting for Huo Wei's feedback, she would browse the news from beginning to end when she was bored, and as the message records increased, she faintly noticed a subtle weirdness.

This unspeakable weirdness lasted until the weekend, when she summed up the progress of her work, and she suddenly realized that throughout the volunteer service, she seemed to be a mentally ill person with a strong desire to talk, talking to herself and wantonly harassing an innocent tree hole netizen.

This realization made her a little uneasy, and finally when she passed by the hospital one day, she looked at the inpatient building soaked in the twilight, and the closed glass windows on the twelfth floor reflected the sky, and she couldn't help but ask, "Do I want to go and see him?" ”

Her father, Bai Yuanshan, said euphemistically on the phone: "Volunteers don't have to do this. ”

She subconsciously wanted to listen to Bai Yuanshan, but at this moment, a gust of wind blew and circled around her leisurely.

Chen Feibai shivered in the autumn wind, and thought for no reason: Did Huo Wei turn off the air conditioner today?

"I can't compare with you," she pulled out her slightly distorted volunteer card and walked into the hospital gate in small steps, "You don't know how miserable he is." ”

She didn't have to sneak around to sneak into the ward now, and cautiously knocked on 1201's door.

There was no one in the room to answer, and Huo Wei might be resting again.

She stood in front of the ward and waited for a while, not wanting to go back like this, so she leaned on the door and whispered Huo Wei's name through the crack in the door.

Finally, someone in the room said, "I'm here." ”

As soon as Chen Haibai opened the door, he found that Huo Wei was not on the bed, and his eyes swept around the room, and he saw that he was wearing a coat and standing in front of the window to blow the wind.

There was no light in the ward, the only light source came from the wide open window, the dim light outlined his figure in the dusk, the evening wind silently blew the corners of his coat, the loose hospital gown on his body was shaken by the wind, stretching out his narrow waistline, Chen Haibai knew for the first time that he was so thin.

His back was stacked with the sunset burning outside the window, and against the backdrop of such a scorching sky, he looked lonely and thin.

Chen Haibai let out a "chuckle" in her heart, she subconsciously wanted to turn on the light, but as soon as the switch was pressed, the light struggled to turn on, but it flashed twice and went out. The light in the room seemed darker for a moment, and she flapped the switch a few more times, and the sound of "crackling" was particularly obvious in the room.

Huo Wei heard the movement behind him and reacted, and his originally tense shoulders suddenly unloaded: "I'm sorry." ”

He relaxed, and the room lit up instantly.

Chen Feibai held the switch and thought blankly for a long time, she is also a capable person, and she is not surprised by the ability, but-

She didn't say anything for a long time, Huo Wei just looked back at her, the two looked at each other, and she looked into Huo Wei's eyes: "-Have you recovered your ability?" ”

Huo Wei was stunned for a moment, hesitated, but still didn't deny it: "A little." ”

"Hmm." Although Chen Feibai guessed a little, he was still a little confused when he heard him say this.

In this case, should she congratulate Huo Wei?

Soon, she thought of the weird messages she had sent, and stammered a little awkwardly, "I've been noisy with you these days?" ”

Huo Wei leaned on the windowsill, his eyes bent, and he looked at her and laughed silently.

Chen Haibai was embarrassed by his laughter, and lowered his head to see if his shoes and tile splicing wires were aligned.

Seeing this, Huo Wei just wanted to comfort her a few words, but when he saw that she was entangled in place for a while, he suddenly raised his head and asked with a red face: "I know it's wrong, but can you please do me a favor?" ”

Huo Wei raised his eyebrows, feeling that he was really good at talking today: "You speak first." ”

"Can you stop talking to the association for a while? I'm that, if I fill in my resume, I need at least fifteen days of volunteer service......" Chen Feibai said more and more quietly, and only a faint breath remained at the end.

Huo Wei was quite surprised to hear her request, he didn't plan to tell the association when he found out that his ability had recovered.

But he also doesn't mind selling a favor to her.

Chen Feibai saw Huo Wei nodding and breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been amnestied. Then she happily asked, "Do you think my predictions these days are accurate?" ”

Huo Wei kept smiling, and then closed the microphone at the right time.

She jumped up beside him, stood in a row with him, leaned over the windowsill and looked out, and said, "You should also know that my prophecies are not like other prophets, they are just fragments of the future. ”

It turned out that she herself knew that it was not very accurate, Huo Wei thought.

"When I don't have dreams or I can't remember too many dreams, I was an ordinary person at that time, so I don't think it's so difficult to accept being an ordinary person," she looked at Huo Wei's side face, his eyes were hanging at the moment, and he didn't know what to think, "But the association told me that my volunteer object is the original ability person who has become an ordinary person, and maybe the ability will not be restored in a lifetime, and I am still very sad." ”

Huo Wei originally thought that people like Chen Fei who spoke a lot of vernacular and had such a heavy curiosity would definitely have a lot of questions to ask when his head was digested, but he didn't expect her to sigh, and then said to him: "I am much more relieved to know your recovery ability." ”

Huo Wei was dumbfounded, what was this junior volunteer thinking in his head all day long.

He blurted out, "Do you know what 'junior volunteer' means? ”

Chen Feibai listened to the topic change so quickly, opened his eyes and nodded.

"Anyone with outstanding ability will not be a junior volunteer," Huo Wei looked at the lamp above his head, the light alternated regularly under his control, "There are not so many promotion conditions in the association, except for ability enhancement, it is based on resume experience." ”

Chen Feibai listened to him quietly, the light above her head illuminating her shadow on the glass window every two seconds.

Your increased ability is insomnia and dreams; In terms of resume, you waited a year and a half to get an interview, how many years do you plan to grind?

But this sentence was a bit mean, Huo Yan thought about it in his heart and didn't say it.

Chen Feibai counted the lights and flashed a total of twenty-six times, and she sighed, "I think your original ability must be very powerful. ”

"Huh?"

"I'm talking about this," Chen Haibai pointed to the ceiling, "recover a little bit, you can do this." ”

He looked at her helplessly: "You are also very powerful." ”

"Thank you, thank you," she accepted his compliment, "I'll be better." ”

Knowing that Huo Deterrence had recovered, the pressure on Chen Feibai's body suddenly decreased a lot.

She no longer has to worry about whether this person has taken her advice, and she doesn't have to doubt whether her ability is in place.

That night, Chen Xiaobai suddenly realized that there was no place in the world to be comfortable.

She slept peacefully, and the moonlight was even clearer in the night breeze. The moonlight kissed everyone's dreams, but it missed her.

In her dream, her volunteer fell into a pool of blood and swallowed.

In the dream, Huo Wei fell to the ground with his eyes blank, the rose-colored blood around him was bubbling out, and he was still vomiting blood in his mouth, she knelt beside him at a loss, crying and begging for help, the sticky blood under her knees dried into bloodstains, and no one passed by.

He looked at her with a dying breath, as if he could sense that his limit was approaching, his face was pale, and his eyes were extremely sad. She held his face and called his name, but Huo Wei didn't give her any reaction, she could only cry bitterly as she watched him die.

She was covered in the blood of Huo Wei, and the dried blood was like a shackle, and she was bound to suffocate. She looked up and saw the reflection of a man in a trance from Huo Wei's dilated pupils, and she looked back at the man's face.

Suddenly, she heard someone shouting her name.

She woke up from her dream, Bai Yuanshan had just come back from work in the association, and the association had to deal with a surprisingly large number of things recently, almost all the senior volunteers were working overtime, he passed by Chen Yubai's room and heard her crying in her dream.

He woke Chen Feibai up and asked her wonderingly, "Why are you so sad?" ”

She was trapped in the powerless emotions of her dreams, but she woke up but couldn't slow down, tears sliding down the corners of her eyes and flowing into her hair. She sobbed and said, "Huo Wei, Huo Wei is all blood. ”

"Huo Wei?" Bai Yuanshan heard the name of Chen Feibai's volunteer object for the first time, "Is that Huo Wei who had an accident recently?" ”

"Hmm."

"Oh, then I know him," Bai Yuanshan pulled out a few pieces of paper from the side and handed them to Chen Yubai to wipe his tears, "Do you still want to sleep?" ”

Chen Haibai glanced at his watch, three and three minutes,

"Hmm."

She had to tell Huo Wei, she had to remind him, but Huo Wei must still be asleep at this time.

She thought of the Huo Wei in her dream again, and couldn't help crying.
