The No. 4 women's dormitory building is in the old campus of Nanhua University, which is in the southern suburbs of Wudu City, next to Nanhua Mountain, which is not very tall but has many trees, which is far away from the place where we chatted at this time. After deciding to go, Mu Ruoyan and I took a taxi and drove for more than 40 minutes to reach the old campus of Nanhua University.

When I got off the bus, I looked at my watch, and the hands already showed that it was 5:14 p.m., which is usually the time when the students in the school get out of class and have dinner, and it is also one of the busiest times of the day on campus.

But at this time, at 5 o'clock in the evening, there was no warm and soothing campus broadcast, and there was no bustling crowd of eating, and the huge school was empty, and I couldn't see a few people walking on the road. Several teaching buildings at the entrance were sporadically lit with some lights, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, and the atmosphere of the campus was cold and terrifying.

I also came to the Lingering Garden Campus a few years ago, and it was very lively at that time. There are many students and teachers living here, and it belongs to the main campus of Nanhua University. I heard that in recent years, Nanhua University has expanded its enrollment and merged many second-class colleges, so it moved the main campus to the new campus in the north of Wudu, and the Liuyuan campus in the south is only left with some adult education colleges and self-examination correspondence training colleges, and the number is almost one-eighth of the previous one.

We followed the school signs in the direction of the girls' dormitory, and saw only a few small shops along the way. Most of the small shops are closed with signs saying they are closed. I finally came across a store that was still open, but unfortunately I didn't see a single customer enter or leave the door.

"Boss! Boss! Are you there? Anyone? Is there anybody? We're going to buy something! ”

Ruoyan and I walked into the kiosk with a somewhat faded plaque, intending to ask someone for directions to the No. 4 girls' dormitory, but found that the kiosk was empty. The dim and yellowish light was faintly lit in the center of the room, and a lot of dust had fallen on the depressed red iron shelves, and the cashier box had been torn down, leaving only a lone monitor.

Ruoyan shouted in the room, and after a long while, he noticed that there was some noise in the innermost part of the commissary, and a person pushed open a small hidden white door and walked out.

"Coming, coming, who's this? Shopping? I'm the most complete thing, what do you want to buy? ”

An uncle walked up to us with a small black radio in his hand, sleepy-eyed, and the commentary on the radio sounded full of noise, like a specially made lullaby. The uncle had short gray hair, a wrinkled black and yellow face, a blue overalls with loose threads stained with black oil, and yellow slippers on his feet revealing a pair of black socks with torn thumbs.

"Uncle, let's ask you about something!"

"Uncle, excuse me, we want to buy a bottle of water!"

Mu Ruoyan's words were interrupted by my voice before he finished speaking, the uncle in front of him looked like he was very financially embarrassed, and he was very worried that if he only asked him for directions, he would be decisively refused, so it was better to buy two bottles of water first to get closer.

"Mineral water or drinks? It's all on the leftmost shelf, you pick it yourself! The price is sticking on the bottle! ”

"Uncle, how much are these two bottles of water?"

"Three!"

"Uncle, you don't have to look for ten yuan, and I want to ask about it, how to go to the No. 4 girls' dormitory building?"

Hearing this name, the uncle's drowsy appearance disappeared all at once. He immediately turned off the radio in his hand, stared at us with wide eyes, and did not speak for a long time. Suddenly, he snatched the mineral water bottle in our hands that had not yet been unscrewed, and said repeatedly: I won't sell this water, you guys go quickly, and drive us out of the door.

"Uncle, what's going on? You make it clear! ”

Mu Ruoyan grabbed the uncle's arm, resisted his push desperately, and asked him loudly why.

"Uncle, my colleague's cousin once jumped off the building there, and we passed by Nanhua University on a business trip, just to pay homage to her, there is no other meaning, do you know that? Why drive us away? ”

The above lie suddenly appeared in my brain, maybe it was the sixth sense that Uncle Uncle's overreaction had something to do with Shangguan Yun'er's jumping off the building.

"You're really not here to explore the haunted house?"

"Uncle, what haunted house? Who's going to be looking for this? We don't make fun of someone jumping off a building! ”

The uncle looked at us with sincerity and no idea about the haunted house, so he let down his guard, sighed and told us the whole thing. The uncle said that he had been repairing bicycles in front of the No. 4 girls' dormitory building for 12 or 3 years, and then after the girls' dormitory building caught fire and Shangguan Yun'er jumped off the building, the school disabled the building and left it idle.

In order to make a living, he rented this commissary near the school gate. At that time, in order to save money, he signed a five-year rental contract with the school in one go, and who knew that the main campus would be relocated not long after, leaving only a small number of students and teachers on this campus. The students in this Lingering Garden Campus are not full-time students, many of them have jobs or part-time jobs, they think the southern suburbs are desolate and the transportation is inconvenient, so they only attend classes in the Lingering Garden Campus, and the rest of the time they move to live elsewhere, and the uncle's business is not as good as day by day.

But since a few months ago, people have come to him from time to time to inquire about the No. 4 girls' dormitory building in the name of buying things. At first, the uncle didn't care, and was quite enthusiastic to show people the way and talk about some things at that time. Later, the relevant leaders of the school came to him and showed him a video of ghost hunting on the Internet. Only then did the uncle know that the young people who came to ask for directions were broadcasting the experience of exploring haunted houses live to satisfy the curiosity of many people, and they were on the show without knowing it, which also caused a very bad impact on the school. From then on, the uncle was hostile to the people who inquired about the No. 4 girls' dormitory, and he would rather not do a single business for a week than tell anyone a little about No. 4 building.

Mu Ruoyan showed his ID very smartly when he heard this, and lied very imposingly that we were entrusted by Nanhua University to investigate those young people who were looking for excitement. When the uncle saw the documents, he believed them, and quickly repeated what he knew to us.

The things that the uncle knows are similar to the situation that Thirteen has mastered, the only difference is that the uncle has a good impression of Shangguan Yun'er. He said that the girl was not talkative and introverted, as if she was only very close to a female friend, and they were together almost every day. The girl is very polite, and every time she finishes repairing her car or cheering up, she will bring her uncle a little delicious snack, but she rarely talks and does not like to talk. It's that the girls around her are very lively and take very good care of girls, and the two have a good and close relationship.

While talking to us about Shangguan Yun'er, the uncle took us to the front of the No. 4 girls' dormitory. When the girls' dormitory building actually appeared in front of me, I realized that it was completely different from what I had imagined.
