Chapter 40
Chapter 40
Seeing the red mark on his neck, Ning Xingruan panicked for a moment, and then quickly pulled up his collar and covered it, as if he could pretend that it didn't exist.
However, after careful recollection, he dispelled the idea of being haunted by that man... the ghost again. This must have been left behind when he was on the mountain a few days ago.
The ghost has disappeared.
In order to verify his guess, he bit the bullet and pulled back his collar to look carefully in the mirror. Yes, the trace was not dark in color, and it was left on the mountain that day.
He remembered the first... red marks, thin and dense on his arms, and the color was not like this.
Ning Xingruan heaved a sigh of relief as if he had taken a reassurance more and more sure of his guess, but when he turned his head, he saw Lin Yuetao looking at him with a wretched smile.
"Let me see, this is the owner of the famous grass? Alright, you, you are hiding such a big thing from us!" He rushed over and tried to pull Ning Xingruan's collar away.
Ning Xingruan groaned and retreated again and again, but he couldn't withstand Lin Yuetao's offensive. He was grabbed by both hands, and the two of them refused to accept the other, and they started fighting in the bathroom.
"You bastard, do you still treat us as brothers, and you secretly got out of the order by yourself!" Lin Yuetao made a resentful and sad expression, but it still couldn't hide the wretchedness on his face.
Ning Xingruan struggled to resist, but was suddenly caught in the tickle, and laughed uncontrollably, his body strength lost immediately.
However, just when Lin Yuetao was proud, he slipped for some reason and fell straight to the ground. Fortunately, Ning Xingruan supported him quickly with his eyes and hands, so that no tragedy happened.
After standing up, Lin Yuetao patted his chest and was frightened. He grabbed Ning Xingruan's shoulder and showed a very exaggerated expression of gratitude: "Good brother!"
Ning Xingruan patted his hand down in disgust, and said, "You stay here, I'm going back to the dormitory."
"Hey don't, why don't we talk about your sassy little girlfriend?"
After hearing this, the figure of the long-haired man flashed in his mind, Ning Xingruan shuddered, but still couldn't help laughing out loud.
Sassy little girlfriend, if that evil thing hears it, Lin Yuetao will probably have his head twisted off, right?
Back in the dormitory, Ning Xingruan took his coat and went downstairs together.
Lin Yuetao was still chattering and inquiring, and made a long-winded condemnation of Ning Xingruan's behavior, but Ning Xingruan turned a deaf ear to it, and after denying that he had a girlfriend, he let him do whatever he wanted.
The bustling cafeteria made Ning Xingruan relax all over his body. After returning to the familiar environment, he looked at the bustling and energetic crowd, and he felt a little dazed, as if he had never left. The memory left by the experience of more than half a month suddenly changed. Faded.
He seemed to be withdrawn from it, and recalling it again, it felt very unreal.
Walking into the restaurant with a smile, Ning Xingruan just felt happy from the bottom of his heart, everything is back to normal, so it's good.
The two agreed to meet at the entrance of the restaurant and squeezed into the crowd.
After parting with Lin Yuetao, Ning Xingruan suddenly felt stared at.The crowd was crowded, and there were heads everywhere, but he still looked down the escalator in the middle of the restaurant very keenly, and saw a tall, fair young man glanced at him, and looked away very naturally, Then disappear behind the escalator.
As if it was just a coincidence.
However, Ning Xingruan suddenly felt uneasy in his heart.
He was stunned for a while and saw no other abnormalities, and then comforted himself, he just glanced at it.He felt that he was probably affected and became a little sensitive.
This can't work, the past is the past, he can't always let the things of that half month affect his normal life.
Taking a deep breath, Ning Xingruan followed the habit and squeezed to the window he frequented to make an appointment, and then waited at the door.
Lin Yuetao came back with two meals, and saw Ning Xingruan hurriedly beckoning.
The two walked out of the restaurant, and just as they went down the steps, someone suddenly bumped into them.
Ning Xingruan caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye, and quickly pulled Lin Yuetao back a step. The man staggered head-down and almost fell to the ground. At the last moment, he stretched out his hands for cushioning and fell on the steps.
The man fell right in front of Ning Xingruan, and his hands happened to be on the top of his shoe. Everyone around him looked this way, and some even couldn't help laughing.
Ning Xingruan pulled out his feet in embarrassment and wanted to leave quickly, but was caught by the trousers.He was displeased, but the man got up and did not show his face, so he bowed deeply and apologized: "I'm really sorry, I didn't bump into you."
"No, it's okay." Ning Xingruan said something perfunctory, and pulled Lin Yuetao to leave again, but was stopped again.
The man raised his head, Ning Xingruan looked at his face, a sense of familiarity flashed by.
"Senior, it's you, what a coincidence." The boy smiled with surprise on his face, patted the ashes on his knees.
Ning Xingruan frowned, he remembered, this person was the one standing on the escalator just now, and fell down in front of him by chance?
Lin Yuetao saw that the kid called him senior, and wanted to chat a few words, but Ning Xingruan stopped him with a look, and then politely said goodbye.
The boy didn't bother anymore, just said goodbye in a normal way, turned around and left.
"Xingruan, what's wrong?" Lin Yuetao asked with his head tilted.
Ning Xingruan subconsciously shook her head and smiled, "What? It's nothing, I just feel that we have become seniors who are about to graduate."
Speaking of this, Lin Yuetao stopped talking. They have a pretty good relationship in the dormitory. When he thought about going his separate ways after graduation, he didn't know when he would have the opportunity to get together. Even if he could meet, it would be impossible to stay together like now. It's also quite unpleasant.
There is a playground between the dining room and the dormitory, and next to the playground is a site under construction, with various building materials piled up in a mess, Ning Xingruan glanced over, and seemed to see a white shadow inadvertently.
His heart tightened suddenly, and he subconsciously took another look, but the white shadow disappeared again.
No, it should be that his eyes are dazzled, there is no white shadow at all.
After returning to the dormitory, the two had dinner, and had a cordial and friendly exchange with Chen Linbo and the others in the group. Talking about what happened during the time they returned home, Ning Xingruan disappeared from the evil thing, and only said that he encountered some strange things. Too evil to say.
After learning that Ning Xingruan was admitted to the hospital, the three of them were all shocked. Lin Yuetao looked at him with some concern, and Ning Xingruan had no choice but to say: "It may be that the climate is not acclimatized, and the old people in the village are talking about it." The impact is already gone."
It is better for ordinary people not to know about this kind of thing, otherwise they will be frightened for no reason.
Lin Yuetao patted him on the shoulder: "If this kind of thing happens again, if you don't tell us, we will really be angry."
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Ning Xingruan folded his hands and apologized repeatedly.
After playing games for a while, the four of them went to sleep separately.
The lights in the dormitory were turned off, but Ning Xingruan couldn't fall asleep for a long time, probably because he slept too long in the afternoon, and he didn't feel sleepy until early morning.
Half awake and about to fall asleep, he was woken up again, turned on the light with his mobile phone, put on some clothes, opened the door and left the dormitory lightly.
The voice-activated lights in the corridor turned on in response, and three or four lights on the left and right illuminated both sides, but it was still dark a little far away. At first glance, it was deep and dark, as if leading to an unspeakable place, which made people feel scalp hairy. Numb fear.
Ning Xingruan didn't dare to look too much, and quickly walked to the bathroom with his head down.
Standing in front of the urinal, he slowly relaxed, when he suddenly heard movement behind him, he was startled, he turned his head immediately, but saw nothing.
The light in the bathroom is not a voice-activated light, it is always on, so that the white floor reflects the bright white, and in the silence, it is a little pale.
After tidying up quickly, Ning Xingruan washed his hands and habitually looked into the mirror.
Then froze.
A white shadow stood quietly at the door of the toilet, with a blurred face and vague clothes, only the figure could be vaguely seen.
It just stood there, motionless.
Ning Xingruan fell into an ice cave, instantly overwhelmed by the suffocation of extreme fear.
He wanted to leave, but his body was out of control at all, and he could only stand there in a daze.It was as if his soul had been pulled out of his body in an instant, and he was faintly dizzy.
As if sensing his gaze, the shadow moved.
In an extremely slow, extremely light movement, it floated towards the mirror.
It came gently behind Ning Xingruan.
An unidentifiable object slowly lifted up, as if it was about to touch his shoulder.
However, in the next second, there seemed to be a crack in the head of the shadow, revealing a bloody hole, and then disappeared.
Ning Xingruan came back to his senses, folded his arms, staggered out of the bathroom, and ran to the dormitory at the fastest speed without looking back. After locking the door, he climbed into bed and wrapped himself in the quilt He stopped, leaning his back against the wall and couldn't help trembling.
that shadow...
Is it a hallucination?
His teeth were chattering, he was frightened and helpless, he didn't dare to poke his head out, he was afraid that if he poked his head out, the shadow would appear beside the bed.
Stuck in the quilt, his consciousness gradually became a little drowsy, but his fear prevented him from going to sleep. His heart kept beating rapidly, and he felt a little dull pain, and his curled up body began to ache.
When he was half awake, he seemed to smell a sandalwood fragrance.
The familiarity made him feel at ease suddenly.
The quilt was pulled lightly, Ning Xingruan subconsciously clenched it tightly, sobbing softly.
He sighed softly, as if an arm had pulled him into his arms.
The firm and powerful embrace made him slowly let go of his defenses, and he couldn't wait to rub against it.The coolness fell on his face, lips and ears. It seemed that someone was whispering something in the haze. He couldn't hear clearly, but he felt relieved.
Pulling back the quilt, he grabbed the person next to him tightly in a panic, and plunged into the person's arms, not daring to let go.
Being hugged tightly, he relaxed. The familiar posture gave him a sense of security. He slowly let go of his curled up body and fell asleep in a very dependent posture.
