Like Falling into an Ice Cave
If something like this happened on campus, you can imagine what happened in the following classes. Zhang Xiaoyu has been in a state of absent-mindedness. Although he will share textbooks and stationery with Zhu Yangxin, he has completely lost his original energy.
"Did you say she was dead?"
"Didn't you see the blood on the ground? It hasn't been wiped clean yet."
"Damn it, do you think she really opened her eyes? She scared the teacher like that."
"Have you seen that cat? Why haven't you seen it before?"
…
The incident of Liu Yunyun jumping off a building soon became the main topic of discussion among students during class, and everyone was in panic for a while. Because of the appearance of the black cat, and the rumor that Liu Yunyun opened her eyes and shed tears, this incident brought more emotions.
Mysterious color.
After the last class ended, the head teacher announced that school was over and walked slowly to Zhu Yangxin and Zhang Xiaoyu.
"Xiao Yu, please take Zhu Yangxin to the dormitory. The dormitory teacher has already made arrangements."
The head teacher explained.
"OK."
Zhang Xiaoyu nodded obediently.
The head teacher gently patted Zhang Xiaoyu on the shoulder, turned around and left the classroom without saying anything more.
When Zhang Xiaoyu led Zhu Yangxin out of the teaching building, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance at the ground beside the flower bed. That place cast a dark shadow in the afterglow of the setting sun, like a whirlpool that could swallow all things.
The dormitory building is not far from the teaching building, but compared to the newly built modern teaching building, the dormitory building seems too old.
Zhu Yangxin registered with the dormitory teacher, received bedding and other daily necessities, and was taken to her dormitory. There happened to be an empty bed in Zhang Xiaoyu's dormitory, so the two of them changed from deskmates to roommates.
Each dormitory in the dormitory has four beds. There is no bathroom in the dormitory. There is a public bathroom shared on the first floor. The overall layout and decoration are very simple, very much like the style of the 1980s and 1990s.
"Both of these beds are unoccupied. You can choose a bed by yourself."
Zhang Xiaoyu pointed to the two empty beds and said.
"okay."
Zhu Yangxin dug out the bedding from the large and small bags and started to make the bed. While busy, she asked casually: "Is there anyone else living here? Is he also from our class?"
Zhang Xiaoyu said "hmm".
"Hey, why didn't she come back? Who is she?"
Zhu Yangxin asked again.
Zhang Xiaoyu's face gradually turned ugly. After a while, she highlighted three words: "Liu Yunyun."
Zhu Yangxin froze and slowly turned her head to look at Zhang Xiaoyu.
"that……"
For a moment, there seemed to be endless words stuck in her throat, and she didn't know where to start.
Her other roommate is Liu Yunyun, the same Liu Yunyun who jumped off the building today! No wonder Zhang Xiaoyu cried.
Zhu Yangxin glanced at Liu Yunyun's empty bed and felt confused. Under such circumstances, could Liu Yunyun still be alive? Coupled with the strange situation that happened later, she had a bad feeling in her heart.
Zhu Yangxin and Zhang Xiaoyu went in and out together, had dinner together, went to night study together, washed and went to bed together, but neither of them said anything more. Because of this incident, the atmosphere in the dormitory was very depressing.
At night, Zhu Yangxin tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
When she turned around again, she was facing Liu Yunyun's bed. Unlike her university dormitory, which had a bed curtain partition, the situation on Liu Yunyun's bed could be seen at a glance.
Zhu Yangxin held her breath. She felt as if her heart had stopped for a few seconds, and a biting chill swept through her body - because she saw someone lying on Liu Yunyun's bed.
She didn't dare to move, her eyes swept over Zhang Xiaoyu's bed, where Zhang Xiaoyu was sleeping soundly.
The hairs all over Zhu Yangxin's body stood up. The scenes she saw during the day came to her mind, making her even more frightened.
At this moment, the figure on the bed moved. The person who was originally lying on his back became lying on his side, and seemed to be facing Zhu Yangxin.
Zhu Yangxin quickly closed her eyes.
"Can't see me, can't see me..."
Zhu Yangxin thought silently in his heart.
What the hell is this place? She wants to go home. She doesn’t want to play anymore. It’s so fucking scary!
It was the hot summer season, but Zhu Yangxin felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave. She wished she could wrap herself tightly in a blanket.
I don't know how long it took, but Zhu Yangxin secretly opened her eyes and found that the figure on Liu Yunyun's bed was gone.
"Ah sneeze——"
Zhang Xiaoyu suddenly sneezed.
After a period of rustling, the lights in the bedroom were turned on.
Zhang Xiaoyu walked to Zhu Yangxin's bedside and patted Zhu Yangxin's shoulder gently. Zhu Yangxin was pretending to be asleep, so she opened her eyes.
"Xiaoxin, I want to go to the bathroom, can you go with me?"
Zhang Xiaoyu asked timidly.
Through the light, Zhu Yangxin could clearly see the goose bumps on Zhang Xiaoyu's neck and arms.
Is it that cold?
Thinking of the figure she saw in the darkness just now, Zhu Yangxin's heart went crazy. If Zhang Xiaoyu left, she would have to stay alone in the empty dormitory.
"Well, let's go."
Zhu Yangxin decisively put on her shoes and stood up.
The two walked out of the dormitory hand in hand. Under the dim incandescent light, the corridor looked particularly long.
All the lights in the dormitories ahead have been turned off, only the lights in the public bathroom are still on, but due to aging, the original silver-white lights have become dim. It is obvious that they are not far away, but the two of them walked, but they also walked a long road.
Feel.
Zhu Yangxin did not dare to stay alone in the corridor, so she and Zhang Xiaoyu entered the bathroom to wait for her.
"Hey——"
"Hey, hey."
"Dang."
The incandescent light outside the bathroom flickered a few times with a few electric sounds, and then went out completely.
Zhu Yangxin was even more panicked. She quickly walked to the bathroom door and looked around. Fortunately, only this lamp was broken, and the other lamps were still in good condition. This made Zhu Yangxin feel a little more at ease. At this time, she looked at both ends of the corridor and felt
The corridor seemed to be endless.
Zhu Yangxin retracted her thoughts, turned around and was about to go back to the sink to continue waiting for Zhang Xiaoyu, but she saw Zhang Xiaoyu standing behind her, his calm face almost coming into close contact with her, which scared her.
"Are you...are you okay?"
Zhu Yangxin touched her little beating heart and was in shock.
She really didn't hear any movement just now, and she didn't realize when Zhang Xiaoyu walked up behind her.
"Um."
Zhang Xiaoyu responded lightly, then walked away from Zhu Yangxin and walked to the corridor outside the bathroom.
Half of her body was hidden in the darkness. She turned to look at Zhu Yangxin, who was stunned on the spot, and said, "Let's go back."
"good."
Zhu Yangxin followed and walked out.
The two of them walked back side by side, Zhang Xiaoyu still smiled at Zhu Yangxin, but did not hold Zhu Yangxin's hand again. They returned to the dormitory, turned off the lights, went to bed each other, and the surroundings became quiet again.
