"Have you been dreaming the same dream for ten years? If you want to find the truth, I'll be waiting for you at F City Normal University."

In the summer of June, Bai Hao clicked on the letter in the mailbox, and after reading the content of the letter, he pondered for a long time.
In the end, Bai Hao decided to apply for the F City Normal University, and the endless nightmare has been haunting him for ten years, and the story in the nightmare is almost the same, and each time it ends with death.
One night in November, a heavy snowfall fell on the city of F, which was rare in a century, and the white snowflakes were especially noticeable in the night, in the southern city
city
City F Normal University stood quietly in the dark night, white snow covered the entire campus, and the light from the dormitory windows gradually dimmed.
A touch of bewitching red, walking through the campus in the night, it is like a lost traveler.
Unlike a true traveler, after a long time, it still can't find its way back, and even forgets who it is, doesn't feel the temperature of the snowflakes falling on it, and doesn't know the bitter cold wind on the winter night.
All that remains is a bleak sigh and a becant red in the night.
"Who am I, and where am I?"
The pedagogical university is located in the center of the city, and it is the highest institution of higher learning in the city, and both foreign and local high school students aim to be able to enter this university, and the main reason for its reputation at home and abroad is that it has the best faculty in the city, and it is not restricted by the elite to enter the university based on test results, and secondly, it is also due to the legend of this campus.
The school is divided into five areas, namely: school building, teacher's office building, sports area, teaching building, and the old campus on the back mountain, they all have their own supernatural rumors, these supernatural rumors also attract major soul lovers, as long as the F has some interest in ghosts and spirits, will take the initiative to apply for this institution of higher learning that has been given the highest honor.
The door of the old campus in the back hill is locked by an iron gate and a large iron lock all the year round. In this college, the supernatural stories of the old campus in Houshan are the most known and have the most versions, but if it is true, only those who really study it can know it.
The old campus was formerly a teaching building, and five years ago, after the expansion policy of the Pedagogical University in F City, the university sealed off the old campus with an iron gate and a lock.
Since then, five years have passed in a flash, and there has been no change in the old campus, and no one knows what it will be transformed into, but the reason why the old campus has remained unchanged for five years is probably only known to the university.
Some say that the school locked down the old campus because it was haunted.
Some people also claim that when they passed outside the old campus at night, they saw a red shadow, as if they were lost, wandering outside the teaching building of the old campus.
Later, there were more and more rumors about the old campus, and the content became more and more abundant, and most people regarded such rumors as a topic of discussion after dinner, and of course there were some atheists who were not interested in it.
On the road to the old campus in Houshan is the dormitory building of the school, which is divided into two buildings, one for new students and the other for students who have been on campus for two years.
Regarding the dormitory building, there is an unwritten rule on campus, that is, before midnight, all dormitories in the dormitory must turn off the lights, and I don't know who set this rule, and all dormitory students on campus will turn off the lights in their dormitories on time before midnight.
White snowflakes fall from the night sky, the banyan tree next to the toilet in the campus playground has already lost its leaves, the bare branches outline a strange shape, like a few skinny arms, the cold wind gusts, the fallen leaves on the ground are blown up, and there is a rustling sound around the banyan tree, the sound does not want to disperse for a long time, and the swaying branches are more like beckoning to you.
"Who am I? Where is this? ”
A bewitching red, lingering in the old campus, the sound came from it.
"Who am I? Where is this? ”
It repeats itself like a repeater until it comes to the iron gates of the old campus.
The bewitching red color spread along the iron railing, in the direction of the iron cable, and finally the entire iron gate was covered with a bewitching red.
At this moment, the iron lock, which was already rusty and mottled, emitted a faint white light.
I saw that the red on the iron gate gradually faded, the rustling sound of the banyan tree stopped, and the dry leaves fell to the ground.
"Who am I? Where is this? ”
That bewitching red, left the iron gate and returned to the old campus.
The dormitory building is already a black oppression, many students have fallen asleep, a semester is about to pass, and the dormitory of the freshman dormitory building is also empty, waiting for the new freshmen to move in.
However, at this moment, the door of dormitory 640 at the end of the corridor of the freshman dormitory building slowly opened, and in the empty dormitory, a standard A4 paper was placed in the center of the table, and a red pen hung directly above it, and the tip of the pen was writing across the paper.
After a while, the pen fell on the table, and the paper somehow ended up in a white envelope.
The white envelope has three identical numbers written in a red pen.
“444”
At the same time, the door number of the dormitory has also changed, from the original '640' to the red '444'.
In the early morning, the dew drops on the treetops are dripping, the temperature is gradually rising, the snow on the ground has melted most of the time, the air is exceptionally fresh, and the cold wind blows in the face, with the rising sun, a new day has arrived.
"Jingle bell...... Jingle bell ......"
Bai Hao's eyes opened slightly, he slowly sat up, habitually scratching his hair, he followed the sound of the jingle bell, and wanted to turn off the alarm clock.
"Bang Dang"
I only heard a crisp sound, and Bai Hao, who was sleepy-eyed just now, woke up completely, and it turned out that he accidentally knocked over the cup on the table.
He patted his forehead: "Hey, that's bad."
Fortunately, the quality of the cup was not bad and it was not broken, Bai Hao put the cup back in its place and got up to wash.
"No, it's too sloppy." Bai Hao looked at himself in the bathroom mirror.
Today is his first day of school, and he pays special attention to the aspect of image, and after seeing that there is still plenty of time, he decided to take a shower and then report to school.
Everything is ready, Bai Hao is fiddling with his short hairboard in the mirror, there is still a gap between dressing up and not dressing up, although he is not particularly handsome, but those eyes are enough to impress, of course, this is not to say that his eyes are different from others, but a certain charm in his eyes.
White on the top and black on the bottom, Bai Hao changed into a traditional school uniform, he is a student who has just stepped into the university campus, the reason why he chose to study at the Normal University in F City, in addition to being a famous school in the city, is that the supernatural rumors here deeply attracted him
Of course, in addition to the above two points, it is also related to the anonymous email he received before.
