Chapter 3: Nightmares and Reality

"The time of death was about 5 a.m."

"Died from a falling object."

"Xiao Wang, you send someone to investigate the office building next to it, door to door, and all the people who stayed in the building last night are investigated!"

"Call up the surveillance in the building! See if there's anyone suspicious! Why are you still stunned! The rest of the people hurry up and deal with the scene! It's time for the morning rush hour! ”

Several police officers are busy evacuating the crowd, and forensic doctors are taking photos and collecting evidence and processing the scene.

Li Xumu, who was stunned on the side, realized that he had closed his mouth that had been open for a long time. From the cracks in the human slit, he could clearly see that the person lying on the ground was wearing a black trench coat, his head was already bloody, and a blood-stained peaked cap fell next to it.

"It's... This man... It's the middle-aged uncle I just dreamed of..."

Li Xumu didn't dare to think about it anymore, shook his head vigorously, pushed away the crowd, and ran away, running in the direction of home.

How is this possible?! Where is such a coincidence! Does it really have anything to do with my sleepwalking? The image of that bizarre car accident a few years ago haunts my mind again.

Is it my problem? Li Xumu tried hard to recall the details of the nightmare just now, but unfortunately all he recalled was a blurry picture. But there was a clear voice in my ears.

"Do you know how to get around Yungang University?"

Li Xumu stopped, panting with his hands on his knees. Try to calm your mind and think back to the whole thing that happened last night. "I fell asleep at home around 11 o'clock, and before going to bed, I clearly remember making an unanswered call to my girlfriend. After a nightmare, I woke up in an alley, and not far away, an uncle in a black trench coat was killed by a falling object... The death is exactly the same as the uncle in the dream... The police said he was stoned to death at 5 a.m., and I woke up in an alley near there at 6 a.m., so I said... It's a matter of the front and back feet?! Does it really have anything to do with my sleepwalking? Is what happened in my dream real? REAL THING!! Haven't I run into a ghost yet!! ”

Li Xumu didn't dare to think about it, he patted his face with both hands, and at this moment, he vaguely saw that there was a woman's figure at the corner of the street behind him, Li Xumu turned his head suddenly, but the woman flashed and disappeared around the corner of the street.

He clearly saw that it was a woman in a short black skirt, a flashing figure, very familiar, but it was not his missing girlfriend, for her, she and Li Xumu had been together since high school, and her figure could not be more familiar.

"Hey!"

Suddenly, someone patted Li Xumu on the shoulder. Li Xumu's life screamed out and stumbled in fright.

Immediately after that, a string of crisp giggling female laughter came from behind: "What's wrong?" Big wood, like losing your soul early in the morning? ”

Li Xumu looked at the woman next to him intently, rolled his eyes, and breathed a long sigh of relief. "It's you."

The woman's name is Zhang Xiaochai, she is Li Xumu's classmate in high school, and when she was in school, she often took the initiative to approach Li Xumu, he couldn't figure out if Zhang Xiaochai was a little interesting to himself, but he just regarded it as a simple friendship, after all, he had a relationship with Zhao Yunuo, who was in class.

Zhao Yunuo is now Li Xumu's missing girlfriend.

Li Xumu observed Zhang Xiaochai. Zhang Xiaochai is wearing skinny jeans, outlining a slender but contoured figure, and a neat white shirt on the upper body, which is quite free and easy.

Judging from the clothes, Zhang Xiaochai is not the girl in the black short skirt who disappeared in a flash on the street corner just now.

"Look at you! I haven't called you for a few days! It's like losing your soul! Zhang Xiaochai pinned the sideburns behind his ears and said playfully.

"What are you doing here at my house so early?"

Zhang Xiaochai shook the plastic bag in his hand in front of Li Xumu: "I'm bringing you breakfast!" I heard that Zhao Yunuo has not heard from me for the past few days, and I was afraid that you would be depressed and commit suicide, so I came to see you, you wood! ”

Li Xumu looked sideways and found that Zhang Xiaochai was obviously dressed up carefully, tied his short hair into a short braid at the back of his head, painted a faint eyeliner around his eyes, and pursed his lips slightly under his delicate nose.

Everything that happened just now is really complicated, and now Li Xumu is really not in the mood to continue chatting. "Ah, thank you, you eat, I'm a little uncomfortable today, I have to hurry home."

"Oh yo! What's wrong with you today? So cold to this beauty! You hold it for me! ”

Li Xumu glanced at the breakfast that stretched out to his chest, the hot air was still slowly rising from the bag, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he looked at Zhang Xiaochai evilly and said, "If you have to give it to me, give me your most precious thing!" ”

Zhang Xiaochai hesitated for a few seconds, and then his eyes shone again, and his chin rose and said not to be outdone: "Then you can take it~"

Li Xumu didn't know what to say about this response, recalling that he had been too close to Zhang Xiaochai, which caused Zhao Yunuo to have a lot of dissatisfaction and a lot of emotions. Since then, I have paid special attention to the proportions between myself and Zhang Xiaochai.

Li Xumu shrugged helplessly, "Don't fight with you haha, I really have something." ”

Seeing that Zhang Xiaochai didn't give up, Li Xumu took the morning and turned around to leave, but was stopped again: "Hey! Wood! I'll go with you to find Zhao Yunuo, right? ”

"I'm going to visit her house in a moment, isn't it appropriate for you to go along?"

Seeing that Zhang Xiaochai was no longer silent, he said goodbye and left.

Li Xumu tiptoed back home, and found that the door locks were still intact, and the door of his bedroom was also closed.

The door of the mother's bedroom was open, and the person was no longer there, and it seemed that she had gone out, and left a note at the door: "Amu, don't always worry about playing computer games at home, remember to fill in the volunteer early." ”

Li Xumu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the note, it seems that his mother didn't know about sleepwalking at night, but where did he go out early in the morning?

Li Xumu's home is a 6-story old dormitory building, and the family lives on the 2nd floor. Li Xumu sat in front of the computer near the windowsill, trying his best to calm himself down. After all, it was the first time that he had seen a corpse so close, and it was probably related to him.

He told one of his close friends on the phone all about what had just happened, and said that there was no one at home, and invited him to come to the house to analyze what happened.

Li Xumu looked out the window and connected the only two sleepwalking experiences to find something in common. But no matter how you recall, some details just can't be remembered, and the only sure thing in common is that in sleepwalking, you have experienced the death of others...

Just when his thoughts were ethereal, Li Xumu's gaze suddenly fixed on the downstairs of the windowsill.

A woman in a short black skirt was also looking up at him downstairs at the moment.
