Chapter 1 A Call from a Mobile Phone at Midnight

Next Chapter

The night was deep, there was no moonlight, and the whole land was covered in darkness.

People have long been asleep, and there are birds on the branches, fish swimming in the water, and reptiles on the ground; The whole city fell silent in a deep sleep.

It was pitch black between heaven and earth, and there was not a ray of light. At this time, even if a cow is standing in front of you, you will not see it.

There was silence all around, and there was no sound. At this time, even if an embroidery needle falls to the ground, you can also hear it.

South of Wucheng City, Qinglianghe Community, Building 19, Unit 3, Room 602, Feng Fei slept soundly.

"Jingle bell, jingle bell......" Suddenly, there was a rush of phone ringing in the room.

This is Feng Fei's mobile phone, and the mobile phone is on the table at the head of his bed.

Obviously, Feng Fei was not awakened by this sudden sound, he turned over, still dreaming.

It's midnight.

Midnight is pitch black and silent.

People need sleep, and after a busy day, sleep is the best comfort.

Midnight is the best time to sleep.

During this time, there is only one requirement for those who sleep peacefully, and that is not to be disturbed.

However, external interference is often unpredictable. It's like when you're sleeping and your phone rings.

This is what Feng Fei is facing.

Interference can be big or small. Some are enough to wake up a sleeping person, while others are not.

Obviously, what Feng Fei encountered was not the kind of interference that was enough to wake up a sleeping person.

Therefore, Feng Fei did not wake up.

His friends, who rented and lived here with Feng Fei, did not wake up either.

This sudden ringing of the phone was not enough to wake Feng Fei and his friends, and certainly not enough to wake up the entire city.

We can't think of any other sound that would wake up an entire city other than the sound of explosions from a military raid.

What's more, it's not an urban area.

It is located in the southern suburbs of Wucheng City, which is still more than ten kilometers away from the city.

A cool river runs through it, isolating it from the city.

Fortunately, there is a bridge and a bus.

Therefore, it is relatively convenient to get to the city from here.

The rent here is cheap, so many recent college graduates are willing to rent here.

Feng Fei is one of them.

Of course, these classmates of his.

Feng Fei, male, 24 years old, from the mountainous area of Hunan, came to Wucheng four years ago to attend university. Now I work in a food factory in Wucheng City.

Yue Ming, Tian Yuan, Xiaoying and Yanzi are the classmates who rented a house with him.

Yue Ming and Xiaoying are both from southwest Guizhou, and they are fellow villagers and classmates. The two have been in love since their sophomore year, and it has been nearly three years now, and the relationship has always been harmonious.

Tian Yuan and Yanzi are also a couple, one from Shandong and the other from Shanxi. Don't look at this east and west, but the distance is far apart, fortunately, love has nothing to do with distance, after more than two years of stumbling, they finally came together.

In this three-bedroom house, only Feng Fei is single, and he is single.

It is said that when a single child falls asleep, he is like a dead pig, and no matter what happens, he will not wake up.

Because, he is not afraid that someone will take his wife away at all.

Singles don't have a wife, so of course there's no need to be afraid.

Probably for this reason, this small phone ringing, of course, did not wake up the sleeping Feng Fei.

About thirty seconds later, midnight was quiet again.

He who sleeps peacefully sleeps still.

Nothing seems to be happening.

Who is so annoying to call someone in the middle of the night?

At this time, there are generally no more than two reasons for calling: malicious harassment and real urgency.

What was the reason for this call to Feng Fei?

I don't know, because Feng Fei didn't wake up at all, of course he didn't answer.

If Feng Fei took it, of course it would be all clear.

However, it is estimated that there will be no more opportunities.

It was so unpredictable that about a quarter of an hour later, the phone rang again.

Of course, it was still called to Feng Fei.

Who will it be?

This time, there will be an answer.

Because, Feng Fei woke up.

Feng Fei finally woke up.

Confused and sleepy, he reached for his phone on the bedside table.

Although the drowsiness did not subside, Feng Fei picked up the phone and did not forget to look at the caller ID.

Maybe this is a habitual action before answering the phone, or maybe it's an annoyed Feng Fei who wants to see what kind of annoying guy this is.

But in any case, the name shown on the caller ID will not change.

Yu Han was called by Yu Han.

Yu Han is Feng Fei's alumnus and colleague.

They work in the same food factory and in the same department, so the relationship is very good.

Yu Han lives in another community, not far from the Qinglianghe community, near the Qinglianghe in the south of the city.

This is both an alumnus and a colleague's buddy, and on weekdays, he often visits Feng Fei's residence on weekends.

Therefore, Feng Fei's classmates, Yue Ming and Tian Yuan, are no strangers to this alumnus Yu Han, and their relationship is still very harmonious.

However, what is Yu Han calling for so late?

Tomorrow isn't the weekend, don't you know if you still have to go to work?

Is there really something urgent?

Feng Fei pondered like this, and connected the phone in a daze.

"Hey......" Feng Fei rubbed his eyes and stretched out his voice for a long time, but he hadn't woken up yet.

"Hey, brother, help me take a leave, I won't go to work tomorrow", Yu Han got straight to the point.

"What's wrong? How do I tell my manager? ”

"It's nothing, you just tell the manager that I have something to do and can't come to work tomorrow."

"That's fine. By the way, what's going on, see if I can help? ”

"Thanks, brother. It's nothing, it's just ......" Yu Han is a little distracted.

"Just say what you want, maybe I can help", Feng Fei was still sleepy, but he always spoke logically.

"It's really nothing, it's just a dream I just had."

"What dream?"

"A bad dream. I just dreamed that I was on duty tomorrow morning, and when I was passing by the Qingliang Hexi Bridge, I was hit by a truck near the north end of the bridge. And...... And it knocked me to death because I felt like I was in a hospital morgue. ”

"Really?" When Feng Fei heard this, he seemed to be in his spirits, because this was indeed a very strange dream.

"Really," Yu Han continued, "I still vividly remember that I was sent to position 8 in the morgue, on the far right of the corner. ”

Feng Fei seemed to have something to say, but he stopped and only said, "Okay, I know, I'll help you ask for leave tomorrow." ”

Feng Fei put down his phone, shook his head with a smile, and thought: This is really a terrible dream, no wonder Yu Han wants to ask for leave.

It is better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not.

Even though it's just a dream, it's never a bad thing to be careful.

It's definitely worth it just to earn one less day's wages for this.

Feng Fei was too sleepy, put down his phone, and fell asleep again after a while.

Midnight was still quiet.

No light, no sound.

This sleep, no one will disturb you again.

When I woke up, it was the next morning.

Feng Fei was awakened by an alarm clock, which was specially bought at the watch market in order to get up early for work.

This is by no means the alarm set on your phone.

Because of the alarm clock, Feng Fei never sets an alarm on his mobile phone.

Every time before going to bed, he would turn off his phone.

This time is no exception!

Yes, Feng Fei's phone is turned off!

It was turned off last night and hasn't been turned on since.

At that time, mobile phones were not as good as they are now, and at that time, there was no automatic power on and off mobile phones.

Mobile phones are not yet advanced enough to be able to receive calls even when they are turned off.

Not before, not now.

As for whether there will be in the future, that is in the future.

At this time, Feng Fei fell into great confusion.

Did you receive a call from Yu Han last night?

The phone is always off, and answering the phone is absolutely impossible.

Is it a dream?

But how can this dream be so real?

This kind of question is difficult to understand for a while.

It's almost time, so let's hurry up and get to work.

Feng Fei quickly washed up, took his bag and went out.

In fact, you don't have to think about this question at all, just give Yu Han a call and ask.

It's a pity that Yu Han's phone can't get through no matter how he calls.

The number on the other end of the line is always "Your call is temporarily unreachable, please call again later." ”

Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't get through, when Yu Han goes to work tomorrow, he will know everything.

At most, I will know a day later.

However, Feng Fei's expression seemed to be a little abnormal today, because he had been entangled in a question in his heart:

Could it be that something really happened to Yu Han!
