i don't want to die again

While sitting in the cafeteria eating alone, Xu Shunian listened to the girls at the next table talking about the recent strange things in University A.

One of them said that there were two incidents of students jumping off buildings in the school in the past week, and the deaths of the two students were very sudden, and there was no sign or reason for suicide at all.

Another girl said that she heard from the teacher that the two people who jumped from the building were both boys, and they jumped from the same place, which was the abandoned laboratory building of the school, and that building has been locked now.

Immediately someone said in fear: "Why does it sound so weird, it's so scary."

The companion next to her comforted: "It should be just a coincidence, that place is very remote now, and the second person may have been stimulated by the first one to go there to commit suicide."

Xu Shunian had never heard of this before. After two consecutive days of working part-time on weekends, he had to go back to the dormitory every night to do homework, so he had no time to pay attention to these news.

At this time, he was a little surprised when he heard about it, but without thinking about it, he hurried back to the dormitory after eating, because he still remembered to finish his homework early.

When assigning tasks in the previous group work, Xu Shunian was very transparent throughout the whole process. Fortunately, the team leader Lu Zhan was quite clear-headed, and finally decided on the tasks for everyone, which made everyone quite satisfied.

The early task is to collect and organize materials very trivially. Due to the curse of procrastination, everyone is basically still on the verge of starting at this time.

However, Xu Shunian has already messed up his own parts. After returning to the dormitory this afternoon, he spent nearly three hours and finally found all the information and made a detailed analysis for each part. Classification and arrangement, due to the relevance of the materials, after his materials were posted in the group, many people found that their parts were basically found.

But the group was quiet for a while, only Lu Zhan, the group leader, posted a series of "wild praise" emoticons to express his praise.

After Xu Shunian finished his work, he went to wash up very tiredly, and then climbed into bed to rest.

The roommates were still awake, and Xu Shunian lay on the bed listening to them as usual. Although he didn't participate in it, he would listen silently when the other three chatted.

Xu Shunian felt that he was actually afraid of being alone, but he had almost no one to talk to at school. Even just listening to his roommates chat would make him feel that his life could be more lively.

"I don't know what's wrong recently. I always feel numb in my shoulders and back, as if I've done some heavy work."

Qi Ye's tone sounded a bit tired, Xu Shunian glanced down from the edge of the bed, saw him tilting his neck and moving his shoulders, he wondered in his heart if he had been exercising less these days, maybe it would be better if he stretched. point.

At this time, the chubby Zhang Min opposite him was eating potato chips, and said vaguely: "Maybe you haven't eaten well recently. Tomorrow we will go to the newly opened restaurant outside the school to have a meal. Maybe you won't feel bad." gone."

Hu Fei, who was coming out of the bathroom, complained unbearably: "You just know how to eat, and eating can cure all diseases."

After finishing speaking, he said to Qi Ye: "Tomorrow, let's go to the gym for a little exercise. It should be good to relax your muscles and bones."

Qi Ye tapped his shoulder with his fist, and said "hmm" after hearing it.

Early the next morning, the four people in their dormitory got up early to wash up and rushed to the same place, because their group set a meeting time for this morning, and when there was no class at noon, the whole group went to the neighborhood near the school to do research, and it was time Summarize the results together.

When Xu Shunian and the three people in the dormitory arrived at the meeting point one after the other, Lu Zhan and a few boys were already standing there chatting.

At a glance, Lu Zhan is the kind of person who is very popular and can become the center of the crowd almost anywhere. Xu Shunian looks a little envious at the moment.

As soon as Hu Fei met, he put Lu Zhan on his shoulder and asked, "Do you have a basketball appointment at noon tomorrow?"

Lu Zhan nodded and said, "Appointment, it's still the same place."

Xu Shunian found a place to stand aside and watched them chat lively. After the other members of the same group had arrived, ten of them began to assign tasks.

Lu Zhan said that a group of two would set off now, and meet at the corner outside the west gate at [-]:[-] noon.

Everyone else had no objection, and started to form a team in twos. Only Xu Shunian stood aside silently, and no one took the initiative to talk to him.

Lu Zhan saw that the groups were almost divided, only Xu Shunian did not say anything, and the others didn't seem to want to be in his group. After pondering for a moment, he waved to Xu Shunian: "Xu Shunian, you and I A group."

The people who were discussing in full swing suddenly fell silent and looked at Lu Zhan in surprise.

Xu Shunian was also taken aback for a moment, then raised his head in a little bewilderment.

Lu Zhan's expression was very upright. He knew that the other people were surprised because Xu Shunian had pestered him before, but he already felt that this person had changed his mind, and he himself didn't care so much. As the team leader, he should take care of himself. Team members only.

So turning a blind eye to other people's eyes, Lu Zhan said naturally: "Okay, everyone is divided into groups, right? Let's set off now."

After everyone scattered to each community, Xu Shunian and Lu Zhan walked into a residential area that looked old, and before knocking on the door of the first customer, Lu Zhan turned his head and told Xu Shunian: " If there are children at home later, you must help control them, I am most afraid of children."

Xu Shunian smiled and nodded in agreement.

The number of tasks assigned to each of the two in their group is the same. Xu Shunian and Lu Zhan completed it quite smoothly. There is a building where the neighbors are very close. A group of aunts and uncles gather together to chat and play cards. After entering one house, I met people from several houses next door. These neighbors also happily filled out the questionnaire together, discussing the content of the questionnaire from time to time.

Lu Zhan and Xu Shunian only need to sit on one side and drink the hot tea handed by the owner of the house comfortably for a while, and they can get several questionnaires.

An aunt took the time to look at the two of them, then turned to the others with a smile and said, "Oh, the kids look so good now, look at how handsome these two guys are!"

The eyes of other people also gathered, and another aunt came up specifically and asked with bright eyes: "Hey, I just wanted to ask, do you two have girlfriends? I have a niece who just got married this year." The university is from the Normal University in City A, and she looks very handsome, do you want to get acquainted?"

Xu Shunian was a little embarrassed, unable to withstand the enthusiasm of the aunt, and didn't know what to say.

Next to him, Lu Zhan looked like a duck to water, and lied without blushing, "We both have a date."

When the aunt heard this, she immediately sighed with regret, and said that good boys are really hard to find now, and many good girls can't find a partner. In a few years, all the good ones will be picked out, etc., and everyone else laughed and joked , Said that she was really worried about her niece.

Under the warm care of a group of aunts and uncles, the two of them left with a lot of rewards and cut down most of the questionnaires in an instant. Not long after that, the task of the two of them was completed. When they returned to the designated meeting place, everyone else was still No shadow.

Lu Zhan asked Xu Shunian, "Do you drink?"

Xu Shunian shook his head.

Lu Zhan sighed, and muttered in a low voice, "You really cherish words like gold now."

Xu Shunian didn't speak, and looked down at the questionnaire in his hand slightly, Lu Zhan had no choice but to buy something to drink by himself.

In fact, it's not that Xu Shunian doesn't want to chat with people normally, it's just that he really doesn't know what to say, as if he hasn't communicated with people normally for a long time, and he can't find a breakthrough to open up the conversation at all.

And when facing Lu Zhan, he couldn't let it go even more. One was because he felt ashamed of what he had done before, and the other was because he was simply nervous when facing the creditor, even though the other party had never urged him to pay back the money. But he still felt very ashamed of himself.

But now he has been careful not to bother others, so Lu Zhan's attitude towards him has improved a lot, and Xu Shunian can still feel it.

Not long after Lu Zhan left, Qi Ye and Hu Fei came here from not far away. They seemed to plan to buy something to drink at a small shop on the side of the road first, and stopped in front of a milk tea shop. He went to order on his mobile phone, while Qi Ye looked very tired and walked towards a few tables and chairs on the side of the road nearby.

When Xu Shunian looked over there, just as Qi Ye walked into the shadows, he saw a person lying on his back.

Xu Shunian thought he was dazzled at first, but Qi Ye turned around and faced this side, a human head appeared on his shoulder, and two arms wrapped around his neck.

Qi Ye also seemed to feel discomfort, reached out to touch it, and raised his head to move his neck. When he walked out of the shadow to get the milk tea that Hu Fei handed over, the figure disappeared again.

Xu Shunian stared blankly in surprise with his eyes wide open. When Lu Zhan came over, he saw him in a daze. He stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes: "What are you doing, are you wandering?"

Xu Shunian came back to his senses, saw Lu Zhan handing him a cup of hot black tea, and subconsciously waved his hand to decline.

Lu Zhan stuffed it into his hand involuntarily, and said casually, "I drank it by myself, how embarrassing it is for you to see, after walking so much, I must be thirsty."

Xu Shunian had no choice but to take it awkwardly, and thanked him in a low voice.

After another ten minutes, other people came back one after another. When they handed over their results to Lu Zhan, they complained about the weird things they encountered and the unfriendly residents. It seemed that many people were not lucky. .

But Xu Shunian couldn't help looking up at Qi Ye, and he wasn't sure if the female ghost he saw from a distance appeared by chance. After all, he would meet some lonely ghosts from time to time. They just wandered around people, and there was no threat.

When they went back, the others said they wanted to eat hot pot together, Xu Shunian silently packed up his things, whispered "I'll go first" behind Lu Zhan, and planned to leave.

Lu Zhan looked back at him and asked, "Aren't you with us?"

Xu Shunian looked up and saw the complicated expressions of other people, and shook his head: "I still have something to do, I'm sorry."

That night, in Xu Shunian's sleep, he seemed to hear a strange sound, as if someone was humming something in a low voice. It's very close to me.

Xu Shunian, who was in a daze, realized something and suddenly opened his eyes.

It was strange enough that someone was singing in the middle of the night, and it was a woman's voice.

In the darkness, Xu Shunian opened his eyes and dazed for a while before waking up from the chaos. The voice lingering in his ears suddenly sounded again. in their dormitory.

Fully prepared, Xu Shunian raised his head slightly, his eyes rolled slowly, and immediately saw a female ghost with disheveled hair sitting on the bed obliquely in front of him.

The female ghost was wearing a red dress, which was also obvious in the night. She was sitting on Qi Ye's back with her back facing Xu Shunian. Facing the back of Qi Ye's head.

Xu Shunian's throat rolled violently a few times due to fear, but fortunately he is no longer howling when he sees a ghost. Although he is still terrified to death, he can barely maintain his sanity.

Slowly lowering his head back to the pillow, Xu Shunian took a deep breath, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
