Chapter 1 Strange Everything
The sky was dark, the clouds were thick, and the thunder serpent roamed the void, making a deafening thunderous sound. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Even though it was a hot summer day and the wind was blowing, a hint of coolness still crept up uncontrollably, and it was obvious that a heavy rain was about to fall here.
"It feels like it's going to rain, so I'd better go home!" A black-haired young man wearing a black and white floral T-shirt and a height of 1.7 meters looked at the sky and muttered to himself.
Carrying a piece of cake and watermelon, wander the streets and look for the bus stop.
Today is the eighteenth birthday of the black-haired young man, which can be said to be an important day to cross from teenager to youth, but he lived it alone.
Originally, I was going to invite some friends to spend it together, but I didn't expect that the friends who were free every day in the past would collectively answer that there was something, which made him feel quite depressed.
However, I didn't think much about it in my heart, there was something to do, anyway, the eighteenth birthday is not important, in the environment in which he lives, the people around him think that the birthday is an integer multiple of ten is very important, so although it is a little sad at this time, but buy a cake and watermelon to go home, let the parents who go out to work hard for a day eat cool and delicious watermelon, and eat cake themselves, it is also very good.
took out his mobile phone and glanced at the screen, at this time at half past eight, the bus he was going to take should have the last train, and it was estimated that he could wait for a little time to sit here and play.
Just as I was about to open the chat software, my phone vibrated slightly, and a text message appeared at the top of the screen. His eyes fluttered, and the browsing speed of countless novels allowed him to read the content in two seconds.
The text message is a sales pitch about the English language, which is sent every once in a while, and the frequency is slightly more frequent, if it is an impatient person, he is afraid that he will have already unsubscribed, but he does not.
The reason is that keeping this text message can remind him to memorize English, and now he is in his second year of high school in one of the best high schools in the city, and he is about to start his third year of high school. His grades are not bad, but they are not very good either, and can only be said to be average.
You have the ability to get into a good university, but you have to work hard. Of course, today is my birthday, so even though I have just finished my summer vacation and should continue to work hard, I still choose to come out and take a day off.
Keep clicking on the chat app with your finger, ignore the text messages, and you'll disappear after a while.
"Buzz"
As soon as he opened the chat software, the phone unexpectedly kept vibrating, and the red message on the screen surprised him, and then the corners of his mouth smiled.
"Hao Hao...... Happy birthday! ”
"Brother Hao...... Happy birthday! ”
"Great God...... Happy birthday! ”
Huo Shenhao...... Happy Birthday"
Swiped my finger down, it was full of birthday wishes from friends and classmates, but I didn't expect that the phone would not be turned on for a day, and so many messages would be accumulated.
One by one, the good relationship is written a long list of words, overflowing friendship, and the heart is warm.
The relationship is generally a public relations greeting, which is a little perfunctory, and of course it is not excluded that I am busy reviewing or something, so I don't care too much.
"Phew, I thought my friends were over, these boys." Huo Shenhao's tone of voice was relaxed, revealing joy and happiness.
"Huh?" Huo Shenhao frowned, and pulled the screen suspiciously, the text message that should have been hidden was still there, and it had been a minute or two since it appeared at this moment, even if he was patient, the obsessive-compulsive disorder was not very strong, and he couldn't stand it a little.
Click on the text message, the content is the same as before, only the font is red, there is no picture, and there is a pale and empty sales English poster, and the whole text message exudes a strange atmosphere.
"It can't be a prank, it's so powerful, even the ad has to be spoofed." Huo Shenhao shook his head, turned off the text message, and continued to savor the friendship on the blessing.
"Toot toot!"
Looking up, a bus with red slogans stopped in front of me. As luck would have it, it didn't take long to arrive.
Striding meteors seemed to step into the car, and the raindrops the size of beans outside fell suddenly, smashing on the ground and causing a continuous sound of "dingding".
Throwing a steel hammer and hitting the coin box with a crackle is so harsh in the extremely quiet car. Huo Shenhao was slightly shocked in his heart, his eyes quickly swept over the carriage, noticed that no one cared about him, and breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and then walked to the position near the door and sat down.
Calming down, Huo Shenhao recalled the situation in the carriage just now. There were only a few people in the car, a young man in his twenties was snoring and sleeping, a woman with a delicate face was playing with her mobile phone, a middle-aged uncle was looking out the window with a shy stomach, and finally a mysterious person in a black sweatshirt was sitting in the parking space.
Huo Shenhao, who has read many novels, immediately came up with a mysterious way to describe that person, wearing a black sweatshirt, covering the upper half of his face with the hat of the sweatshirt, and putting his hands in his pockets, which makes people feel that this person is very problematic.
"Wearing a sweatshirt on a hot day, there's something wrong with it!" Huo Shenhao thought so, shrugged his shoulders, put his phone away, and looked out the window at things in the distance.
The car drove slowly, not fast, the things outside the window were not fast or slow, Huo Shenhao looked at them, and estimated in his heart that he would probably have to reach home at the extreme.
Bang!
When I came to a cracked concrete road, the bus shook a little majeure after driving in. Huo Shenhao's whole body also trembled, and at the moment when the bus shook, he felt that the air temperature was suddenly cold, as if he had entered the air-conditioned bedroom from a hot stove, and the temperature had changed too much, and he had not adapted to it at all.
The temperature changes as quickly as they go, and the goosebumps disappear as soon as they start.
"Damn, what the hell." Huo Shenhao clasped his hands on his chest, rubbed his arms, and said softly.
"Hello dear passengers, Mulian Station has reached ......"
Da-da-da-da!
With a series of stampedes, more than a dozen passengers instantly poured into the carriage, and the strange atmosphere in the silence was broken at this moment, making Huo Shenhao feel a sense of security.
This is an old lady walking slowly, her legs and feet are limping, and it seems a little difficult to walk. In morality, Huo Shenhao decided to give up his seat and said loudly: "Grandma, you sit here, I'll go to the back." ”
"Thank you, young people nowadays are so sensible!" The old grandmother was dressed plainly, with white short-sleeved clothes, black loose trousers, and old Beijing cloth shoes, and sat down to nod and smile at Huo Shenhao.
"Hey, hey!" Huo Shenhao picked up the watermelon and cake and was about to find a place behind him, but when he saw that there was only a seat around the man in the sweatshirt, he pulled the corners of his mouth and decided to forget it and not sit down.
When the people were finished, the bus continued on its way.
"There are quite a few people at this point." Huo Shenhao looked around, and the seats in the carriage were almost full, and he was the only one standing.
Doodle!
Phew!
A sudden brake, the bus shook, and the whole car fell forward in unison.
"What's the situation?" After stabilizing his figure, Huo Shenhao asked with annoyance.
"Tsk, there's someone in front!" The bus driver was a slender middle-aged uncle, who was a little anxious, and directly honked the horn to urge the other party to hurry up.
Huo Shenhao's eyes were good, and he saw that there were three people on the road outside, and in the middle was a woman in white costume, she lowered her head and her long hair fluttered, covering her face. On the left and on the right are two men in black costumes, wearing masks, holding the women in white.
"Hey, don't you guys get out of the way!" The driver honked his horn wildly and scolded the other party at the same time.
The three people outside still didn't move, and stopped in the middle of the road in a daze.
"Do they want to come up?" Someone saw that the bus had not moved and observed the three people outside.
"Come on, really!" The driver turned around and saw that the bus was not far from the station, hesitated, opened the door and motioned for the three to come up.
The car door opened, and three people dressed in simple clothes walked towards it, with an awkward posture, feeling that the woman in the middle was hanging on two men, and it was all up to the men to support her weight.
Looking at this strange scene, Huo Shenhao's heart trembled for no reason, and a trace of ominous premonition rose, thinking, "Still playing costume dramas, is it an extras from a certain crew?" ”
The three of them got into the car, took out the banknotes and threw them into the cash box, and then walked to Huo Shenhao's back to him and stopped, holding the handle.
The whole process, except for the weird and gloomy appearance, is no different from ordinary people, Huo Shenhao knows that he has read too many novels and thinks about it.
His eyes continued to look into the distance, ignoring the costume trio.
What Huo Shenhao didn't notice was that the old grandmother beside him lowered her head at this time, a little reluctant to see the costume trio.
