In the afternoon, in class.

Gu Yingying was fishing.

It makes sense.

What college student doesn't fish in class?

Gu Yingying said that it would be very face-saving for the teacher to be able to arrive at the classroom on time for the first class in the afternoon instead of sleeping during the lunch break.

She is bored scrolling through the news, and she doesn't know if the world has really changed recently, or if the self-media that write news are too exaggerated, and the news headlines are more outrageous than the other.

"A villager fell into a dry well, and with the enthusiastic help of other villagers, he finally adapted to life at the bottom of the well".

"Who would have thought that this eighteen-year-old boy was just a thirteen-year-old boy five years ago".

"Police remind photo studio operators that they do not need to charge money for taking headless corpse headshots".

"Jiangchengshan Park off-season tickets are 30 yuan, peak season tickets are 40 yuan, and the ticket price will be adjusted to 50 yuan after being complained".

Gu Yingying glanced at the news a few times, and even began to feel that the teacher who was talking about the number of points became clear-eyed.

It is impossible to attend a lecture.

She opened the tree hole net again to see what was interesting.

Gu Ying's cherry tree cave network has followed more than 1,000 accounts, including cute pets, animations, music, and sand sculptures that are funny, and they can't be brushed.

It's just that this time, as soon as she opened the treehole network, she found that an account she followed recently had been updated.

The rules of Treehole Network are to give priority to the content posted by the accounts that have been followed recently, and when it comes to the accounts that Gu Yingying has recently followed, it must be a "scientific exploration bot".

"Updated? So fast? ”

Gu Yingying clicked in.

She saw that the "Science Exploration Bot" was updated with another long article.

How long has it been?

High yield like a sow?

She wanted to watch it directly, but suddenly remembered the last time she watched "The Funeral Home Code", and felt that if she yelled in class, her life would be over.

You have to find a hidden corner and enjoy it slowly.

Some classmates may ask, last time Gu Yingying was almost scared to pee, why is she so excited this time?

This question, if you are like Gu Yingying, after reading it, you recommend it to others, and when you know that the other party has sent more than a dozen messages in a row after reading it accusing you of your immoral behavior and what you have been scared of, and then forwarding it to more people, you will look forward to the next time.

In order to avoid peeking in advance, she even put away her mobile phone and began to listen carefully to the class.

The more than an hour of class ended with difficulty, and Gu Yingying didn't have a class next, normally, she would find a quiet place to practice the saxophone, such as by the Lingjiang River.

Where the dream begins.

"Hmm."

Gu Yingying suddenly had a wonderful feeling, maybe she would meet that little brother when she went to the Lingjiang River today.

She went back to the dormitory, picked up the box containing the saxophone, walked out of the school, took the subway, and came to the bank of the Lingjiang River.

It's now more than four o'clock in the afternoon on weekdays, and there are a lot of people by the riverside, including the elderly who take their children out to bask in the sun, the white-collar workers who fish and blow the wind with paper cups of coffee, and some people who probably live nearby and don't have to go to work.

GU YINGYING EVEN SAW THAT THERE WERE COSPLAY PHOTOS.

She glanced around, but she didn't see the boy.

Thinking about it like this, she didn't even know what the other party's name was.

Gu Yingying took out the saxophone and practiced for half an hour.

When the mood was brewing, she unlocked her phone and began to click on the updated novel and start reading.

“...... My grandfather told me that as long as my sister was fed, then she would protect me from being bullied by others. ”

"But I know that grandpa is lying to me."

"Because my sister is just a jar of ashes."

In just a few words, Gu Yingying felt a little chilled.

It's back, it's all back.

It feels like it.

She quickly immersed herself in the story.

The story unfolds somewhat similarly and differently from "The Funeral Home Code", with the protagonist being a newcomer who moves into this apartment on his first day.

Except for the few confessions at the beginning of the novel, which I don't know whom, it looks like an ordinary everyday novel, about trivial things between neighbors.

It's just that the more she looks down, the weirder Gu Yingying feels.

The black Buddha statue on the windowsill, the mysterious girl next door, the inch-headed man who looks mixed, the enchanting woman next door, the constant sound of mahjong upstairs, the sound of chopping meat that I don't know where it comes from, the crying, the sound of quarrels.

The names used in the story are obviously pseudonyms, but they are like the people around them, and they are full of substitution.

She felt like she was in an apartment building, where every room had secrets hidden and she wanted to snoop on, but she was afraid of the unexpected.

The protagonist is very bold, wandering around the building, he saw the people playing mahjong, those people stared at him directly, the text penetrated the screen, like ants crawling up Gu Yingying's arm, she felt as if she was standing in the corridor, being stared at by those people playing mahjong.

Their faces were bloodless, like people who had been dead for a long time, their heads turned in an unreasonable way, and Gu Yingying's appearance was reflected in those cloudy eyes, which made people feel creepy.

A chill came up, Gu Yingying gasped, and the river breeze brought a slightly salty smell of air, which made this strange feeling even more intense.

Normally, Gu Yingying must have looked away at this time and stopped looking.

But the novel seemed to have some kind of magic that kept drawing her to look down.

She couldn't help but hold her breath when she saw the man who seemed to be on stilts, dressed in coarse cloth, and holding a tattered oil-paper umbrella passing through the hall.

Soon, the story took a sharp turn.

The girl next door died, the bewitching woman seemed to be insane, and the whole room was filled with a treacherous atmosphere, and there was even a quaint and shabby notebook.

Gu Yingying saw the protagonist open the notebook, and what caught her eye was the words at the beginning of the novel.

Along with the description of the author of the notebook, Gu Yingying felt that the temperature around her had dropped a lot, probably because the sun was setting in the west and the river was blowing.

I don't know why, although this author's writing is average, there is no flowery rhetoric, but writing it makes Gu Yingying feel a little scared.

She was curious how the author's body temperature of 37 degrees could write such cold words.

With the reading of the notebook, the ins and outs of the whole thing became clearer and clearer, Gu Yingying was saddened by what happened to this girl, and at the same time felt afraid of the "sister" she described.

At this point, she sees a dark shadow covering the protagonist.

Almost at the same time, Gu Yingying felt that her surroundings had darkened.

She looked up and saw a man standing in front of her, against the light, unable to see his face clearly.

Gurgle-

Gu Yingying's heart skipped half a beat, this feeling of story and reality intertwined is really impactful.

Her body tensed, as if she was not on the riverside in the evening, but standing in that cramped room, from time to time there were women's sobs and whispers around her, holding a notebook with a strange and bizarre story in her hand, suddenly, the woman's voice disappeared, Gu Yingying looked at the other party, and found that the other party's gaze fell on the void behind her.

Gurgle-

Gu Yingying felt that at this moment, her heart rate must have exceeded one hundred and fifteen, and the screams were brewing in her throat, almost bursting out.

Until, the other party opened his mouth and said a word.

"Excuse me, sweep me here."

It's the sanitation workers you see everywhere.

“...... Good, okay. ”

Gu Yingying almost lost her voice, she stood up tremblingly in the face of the suspicious gaze of the sanitation worker, and when she waited for the other party to clean the surrounding area of the bench, her curiosity couldn't be suppressed, so she picked up her phone and continued reading.
