Chapter 2: The Ghost Shadow
"Did the ghost hit the wall?" I chuckled in my heart, what is that male voice?
Suddenly, there was a burning sensation in my chest, and when I looked back, the homeless man was gone. The school gate is also close by.
"Could it be that I was dazzled just now?" I touched my chest, and I felt the burning sensation turn into a warm current and slowly dissipate in my body.
When I came back, my roommate Manting had already fallen asleep, and I quickly took a hot shower and lay on the bed, ready to sleep.
Suddenly, I felt the temperature in the dormitory plummet, and I could see white smoke when I exhaled. It's only November, and it's a little colder, but it's not going to be so cold!
By the moonlight outside, there were a few shadowy black shadows rushing up from the ground, and if you looked closely, they were several black figures, lying on the wall like Spider-Man!
I lay under the covers, not daring to move, not daring to make a sound, but still unable to stop my body from shaking.
The humanoid black shadow slowly crawled to Manting's side, and they stretched out their long arms, lifted Manting's quilt, and examined her body, as if looking for something.
Then they rotated their heads 180 degrees in parallel, extremely slowly, like a mechanical puppet, and looked at me in unison, and I squinted and didn't dare to make any movements.
In the next second, several black shadows were lying on the side of my bed again, grinning and looking at me. Up close, I saw maggots crawling out of their hollow eyes that were still wriggling, and my scalp was numb and I couldn't stop feeling nauseous!
Seeing those humanoid black shadows stretch out their hands towards me, suddenly there was a burning pain in my chest again, and with a dazzling white light, those humanoid black shadows let out a painful wail like falling into hell, turning into wisps of black smoke and disappearing!
I sat up sharply, gasping for air! Looking back now, it is possible that what I experienced at the school gate was not my hallucination!
A ray of sunlight shone in the morning, and I woke up with dark circles under my eyes.
"Qiao Li, did you go home for your birthday and lose someone?" It was my roommate, Manting, who was also my only good friend. "Say! Where did you go yesterday? Are you looking for a wild man behind my back? ”
Originally, there were four people in our dormitory, but the other two moved out because they couldn't stand Tingman's temper. I was the only one left in the dormitory, so naturally Manting walked close to me. After contact, I found that she just had a bad temper, but in fact, she was a righteous woman in her bones! So we became good friends who talked about everything.
"I've been busy with part-time jobs, thinking about the exam next month, I don't have time, I'll do more this month when I have time!" I giggled and tried my best to hide my birthday experience.
"You, why don't you learn from your sister and show your dad goodwill, why do you have to go out to work so hard all day long!" Manting had already changed her clothes and had a stinky meal in front of the mirror.
"Isn't it Saturday? Where are you going so early? I sneered and immediately changed the subject.
"On a date, of course!" She giggled, and then she suddenly leaned in close to me and stared at my neck, "What's wrong with your neck?" Shouldn't you be planted with strawberries? ”
I quickly pulled my collar up, "I think I was bitten by a mosquito......"
"Where do the mosquitoes come from in the big winter! Oh yes, did you feel cold last night? I ......" She tried to continue talking, but was interrupted by her own phone ringing.
Manting picked up the phone, responded impatiently to the person on the other end, and then gave me a look and left the bedroom.
I breathed a sigh of relief, not that I couldn't tell her, but I was afraid that I would lose my only friend......
I glanced at the time, got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up, and when I stood in front of the mirror, I couldn't help but feel like a dream when I saw the marks left by the fox demon on my body.
"Let's go!" Something fell off me, and I looked down to see that it was the concentric knot I had left in the villa!
I hurriedly put away the concentric knots on the ground.
There wasn't much time for me to think because I still have a part-time job to do today.
That's right, I'm short of money. My stepmother controls the family's finances, and she is harsh on me. In order to spend the four years of college safely, I began to work hard to earn money after the college entrance examination.
Today's part-time job was introduced by Jingjing, who I met from a part-time job before, and it is said to be a stargazing gathering of a group of rich second generations in the city, and the salary of being able to work there for a day can be worth a month's salary on weekdays, not to mention the tips that may be received!
I covered the kiss marks on my neck with foundation, then simply cleaned up and went out.
When she came to the agreed school gate, Senior Sister Jingjing was already waiting there, and there were two other girls standing next to her. It's good-looking, but it's full of technology.
"Qiao Li, the car is already waiting, let's get in the car!" Sister Jingjing beckoned to me and motioned for me to get into the Mercedes-Benz van.
After everyone was together, the car started without hesitation.
After a long drive, away from the city, towards a villa on the hill!
"I heard that there is a Leonid meteor shower tonight, this place is the best place for stargazing!" Along the way, the two girls were chattering in the car.
Discussing whose young master Kuo is here today, which one is more handsome or which one is richer.
Soon, the car entered the villa compound. As soon as I got out of the car, I saw a large swimming pool in the middle of the yard. The villa is relatively simple and has a white lacquer finish.
A middle-aged woman in formal clothes walked out of the villa, "You guys go and paint the pool, you guys come with me!" He instructed a few boys to go to the pool, and then motioned for us girls to go with her.
Walking into the villa, there are still many busy figures inside.
"Hand over your phone!" The middle-aged woman pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose. Then he held out his hand to us.
Senior Sister Jingjing is experienced and happily handed over her mobile phone.
The other two tech faces took out their mobile phones and handed them to the middle-aged woman.
"Sister, why do you have to confiscate your phone? I also want to post two selfies on Moments! Tech Face No. 1 made a snorting sound, as if he wanted to get the love of a middle-aged woman. It's a pity she miscalculated!
"Jingjing, find some professional next time!" The middle-aged woman wrinkled her eyebrows, revealing a look of displeasure.
Suddenly, the two technological faces did not dare to speak again.
"Where's your phone? Why haven't you taken it out yet? The middle-aged woman's eyebrows tightened!
