Cannon Fodder's Rebirth

Chapter 44 Dark Night Invasion

On the third day after eating hot pot, something happened to Jiangxi and his dormitory!

Although Jin Shi'an didn't watch "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth", he had symptoms of deliberately making trouble when August and Stannislas were caught and interrogated by the German colonel, coughing, spitting, and sniffling.

A temperature measurement, 38 degrees!

At this special moment when the SARS horror atmosphere is overwhelming, Jin Shian's untimely fever symptoms made all the members of the dormitory dare not be careless, after all, it is really fatal.

After reporting the truth to the school, all members of their dormitory and those who had been in contact with their dormitory were all quarantined.

Jin Shian was directly sent to the fever clinic of the hospital for observation because of a fever and cough. Although the others have no obvious symptoms yet, given that SARS generally has an incubation period of four to ten days, they were also arranged to live in the northwest corner of the school just in case. Temporary isolation in an old graduate student apartment that has been abandoned and is about to be demolished.

Except for the remaining five people in Jin Shi'an's dormitory, as long as anyone who has been in contact with their dormitory, from the building manager who collected the thermometer to the administrator of the school's computer room, none of them ran away, and they were all isolated in this building. In the gloomy old apartment.

The postgraduate apartment was originally a room for two people, and Jiang Xi and the others were still in a room for isolation.The eldest child shared a room with the second child, the third child shared a room with the fourth child, the old Wu Jin Shi'an was admitted to the hospital, and the remaining Jiang Xi played tricks by himself and was arranged to share a room with people in other dormitories.

Jiang Xi was cleaning the table and tidying up the room, but as soon as the new roommate opened the door and came in, both of them were taken aback. They really didn't expect to arrange him to share the room with Tong Le.Indeed, Tong Le must be one of the people who had close contact with their dormitory. Not only did she sit next to them to watch a movie that day, but she also talked to herself for a long time alone.

With a particularly awkward mood, Jiang Xi started the first day of cohabitation with Tong Le.

The old apartment building for graduate students has only three floors. It was built a long time ago, and the Internet has not yet been popularized. There is no broadband connection in all the buildings.The whole building stands in the most remote corner of the campus, surrounded by towering trees, and this building has not been lived in for more than three years, it really has a ghostly and cold feeling.

Jiangxi and the others arranged for two people to live in a room apart. The rooms on the left and right sides were all empty. The double room on the sunny side not only had a separate bathroom, but also a balcony.Since they are not allowed to go out to share dormitories to prevent cross-infection, all communication with other dormitories is except for mobile phones, and they are standing on the balcony and chatting a few words out of reach.

Jiangxi was lucky, the nearest balcony that he could see on the left was where the eldest and second lived, and the third and fourth were on the right, which was much better than the situation where Tong Le was only familiar with himself.

Because their dormitory was regarded as the hardest-hit area, they were isolated very suddenly. Everyone rushed here with only a change of clothes. Jiang Xi even forgot to take his notebook.This left him with almost nothing to do except lying on the balcony and chatting with the boss, the second, the third, and the fourth.

Tong Le is a latecomer, so it may be more leisurely. He not only brought a computer, but also a bunch of old British fashion magazines "Esquire" that have been published for decades. Of course, they are all out of date, but they are definitely better than nothing.

The three meals a day were delivered by a special person, with reasonable nutrition. It was obviously specially prepared for them, which was much more delicious than the big pot meals in the cafeteria.What's rare is that each meal is served with fruit, apples, oranges, and bananas to ensure that the meals are not repeated.

Jiang Xi was unlucky, and when he came in, he found out that his mobile phone was in arrears. He asked the brother who delivered the lunch at noon to help him buy a recharge card.

Immediately called Jiang Ma, Jiang Xi didn't dare to say that someone in the dormitory had a fever and they were all quarantined. Anyway, everything was fine, so Jiang Ma was relieved.After that, he called Zhong Yifan again, but unexpectedly he didn't get through.Yesterday Zhong Yifan called, Jiang Xi already knew that Cheng Zhiyuan's situation was not particularly optimistic, Zhong Yifan might be forced to take over Cheng's operation immediately.Although Assistant Luo was there to assist him, he would have to be in a hurry if he got started so suddenly.Jiang Xi remembered that he said yesterday that he would go to the gold mine to see it today, maybe the signal in the mountains is not good and the mobile phone cannot receive it.

In the evening, the sky suddenly became cloudy, as if it was going to rain.The door on the balcony was not closed, and it was slammed by the wind, which startled Tong Le, who was sitting on the toilet and playing with her mobile phone, and threw her mobile phone on the ground.

"Jiang Xi, please close the door a little bit, I'm scared to death!" Tong Le shouted as she sat on the toilet and rushed outside.

Jiang Xi was actually taken aback too, he happened to be closing the door when Tong Le said this.

After entering a room, he didn't talk much to Tong Le, usually Tong Le took the initiative to chat, and he just echoed a few words.

After putting on her belt, Tong Le came out of the bathroom after washing her hands. The bedroom lights had already been turned on. It seemed that they were about to enter their first long boring night.

After generously expressing that computers and magazines can be shared with Jiangxi, Tong Le sat on Jiangxi's bed uninvited, and hugged a bunch of snacks.

Jiang Xi deeply suspects that Tong Le belongs to the squirrel family. It's okay for big boys to like snacks, they are all nuts.In fact, he is not unfamiliar with Tong Le, after all, the two have been colleagues for several years in their previous lives.And in all fairness, the current Tong Le is cuter than the Tong Le he knew in his previous life, probably because he is still young and still has some innocent things.

"You're welcome to eat what you like!" He boldly piled up all the things beside the river, and Tong Le really ate the pine nuts like a squirrel.

"Thank you, I don't really like eating on the bed." Looking at the pine nut shells that had been dropped on the bed, Jiang Xi couldn't say anything more.

"Then I won't eat it either." It is estimated that he has already eaten a lot, Tong Le stretched out his hand and scratched the shell that he hadn't thrown into the garbage bag on the ground twice, then rubbed his butt back, just like Jiangxi Leaning against the wall behind him. "Do you think that buddy in your dormitory is really SARS?"

"Who can say for sure, I hope it's not!" After SARS came, I was afraid even if I had a headache.In fact, there were several false alarms in school, but luckily none of them were true. Of course, Jiang Xi sincerely hoped that this time would not be true either.

"Well, it's better not, I don't want to go to Xiaotangshan."

Jiang Xi didn't want to go either, but now he can only think optimistically and pray for Jin Shi'an.

"I'm so bored, why don't you watch a movie? I rented a bunch of discs." Tong Le suggested.

It was really boring, and it was estimated that the two of them would have to live here for at least a week, so Jiang Xi reluctantly agreed to Tong Le's proposal.

"what movie?"

"Horror movies." Pulling the table under the window towards the bed, Tong Le took the notebook over and opened it, then turned around and smiled at Jiangxi: "Aren't you afraid?"

Asking this made Jiang Xi really want to laugh: "It's hard to say, maybe I will cry in fright."

"Hahahahaha..." Tong Le smiled happily, and patted himself on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, I will lend you my shoulder."

"Thank you so much."

Jiang Xi thought that Tong Le had enjoyed watching Little Tartar Eviscerate the day before yesterday, and that his favorite horror movies should also follow the European and American blood plasma route, but all the horror movies he rented were Japanese and Korean.

"Well, the new movie "The Grudge" was released in Hong Kong at the end of May. I don't know where the boss got it first." Tong Le said and put the disc into the CD drive.

Every time I see these rivers and streams, I feel more like going back in time. "The Grudge" is still a new film at this moment!I remember watching The Grudge in my previous life, it seemed that I rented the disc by myself, and I didn’t know Zhong Yifan at that time, it’s been a long time ago.

Tong Le, who claimed that he was afraid that he would lend him his shoulder, turned out to be a strong outsider, probably because he had already seen it. Jiang Xi didn't respond to the film at all, but Tong Le, who was next to him, got closer to him the more he sat.

"Are you afraid?" Being squeezed so hard that he was almost sitting on the pillow, Jiang Xi finally had to remind him that Tong Le would sit on his lap again.

"It's raining, it's cold, it's crowded and warm." Tong Le was making excuses for himself, when the sky that had been struck by a thunder just now had no movement, suddenly there was a strong wind, followed by a clatter of thunder, which shook the old building It seems to be trembling.With the help of lightning, one can see the big tree that has been destroyed by the wind and rain frantically swaying its branches and leaves, which perfectly matches the terrifying atmosphere.

"Forget it, don't use the computer for Dalei, let's watch it another day." Looking at that thunder made Tong Le tremble with fright, and Jiang Xi really couldn't bear to see him insist.

"Yeah, I'm tired after moving here for a long time, go to bed early." It seemed that Tong Le didn't want to watch it either, as soon as Jiangxi gave him a step, he hurried down.

After Tong Le turned off the computer, Jiang Xi went to the bathroom to wash up first.He was really not used to sleeping with his clothes on, so he was going to wash first, then take off his clothes and get under the covers before Tong Le came out of the wash.

However, this idea is good. When he just finished taking off, the lights in the room suddenly flickered twice, and finally accompanied by Tong Le's exclamation in the bathroom, the room was completely dark.

"Fuck! What's the matter?" Tong Le was probably brushing half of his teeth, his mouth was full of toothpaste froth, and he slurred his words to embolden himself by swearing.

"Wait for me to ask." Jiang Xi directly sent a text message to the boss, but the answer he received was that their house was out of electricity, maybe the old apartment was too old, and the wiring outside was aging due to the storm.It is impossible to find someone to work in the rain to repair it in such a weather outside. What the boss means is that it is so late anyway, and there is no need to use electricity to go to bed. Just sleep like this, and someone will definitely take care of it tomorrow.

Tell Tong Le the boss's conclusion, and the latter can only reluctantly accept this fact.Maybe the geographical environment is not familiar yet, Jiang Xi heard that he was kicking the chair or bumping the legs of the bed all the way, and finally climbed onto the bed in the dark.

Tong Le made her mentally tense, but today she was also a little tired. Amidst the thunder and lightning, Jiang Xi fell asleep quickly, but in his sleep he saw Xiao Junxiong's eyes in "The Grudge".

He has watched all four of The Grudge, and after the broken circuit enhanced the atmosphere, he dreamed of all the horror elements in it together, such as a woman without a chin, sleeping on the bed and lifting the quilt from the inside The ghost that got out...

Jiang Xi is actually very courageous, and has always believed in not doing bad things and not being afraid of ghosts calling the door, but today in his sleep, he felt that something was really wriggling in his quilt.As the feeling became more and more real, he couldn't help but woke up in a cold sweat.

He didn't dare to catch his breath, Jiang Xi slowly lifted the quilt covering him like he was acting in a movie, the only difference was that he couldn't see anything under the quilt which was too dark.

One hand quietly took out a lighter from the side pocket of his trousers. Jiang Xi was about to light it the moment he completely lifted the quilt, when a lightning bolt flashed outside, making the whole room brighten up instantly, clearly illuminating the lighter. The head in the quilt.

Jiang Xi almost staged a horror movie himself - "Scream".

As a staunch atheist, even though he has experienced rebirth, Jiang Xi still does not believe in ghosts in this world, so after the lightning, he tried to calmly light the lighter, and this time he finally saw that the head belonged to Childlike.

Tong Le didn't know when he slipped onto his bed, and was completely shrunk under his quilt.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Xi shook his hand and extinguished the lighter. Although he didn't call out just now, he was indeed quite frightened.

"I think... there's something in my quilt..." Tong Le huddled under the quilt, not daring to come out, and only reached out to point Jiang Xi to the direction of his bed.

Relighting the lighter and looking at the opposite side, Jiang Xi sighed helplessly: "Then you sleep on my side, and I will change the bed with you."

As long as the school has a long history, there may be some rumors about supernatural events, especially the old apartment that has not been lived in for so long.Jiang Xi also heard from the boss on the balcony at noon that there seemed to be a girl here who committed suicide by cutting her wrist in the bathroom. I don't know if it is true or not.

"Don't! He should come here after you leave..."

Jiang Xi was really dumbfounded, he had never seen a big boy watch a horror movie so frightened him in his life.

"Don't worry, I'll sleep with him in my arms, and I won't let him come and harass you."

Stretching out his head from the quilt, Tong Le clung to Jiangxi like an octopus and refused to let him move: "Then you should sleep with my arms around me, my eyes are not as scary as Junxiong..."

Tong Le touched Jiang Xi's bed because he was afraid, and he was so scared to death, but as for what he was afraid of, he didn't tell the truth.Compared with horror movies, what really scares him is thunder.

Speaking of it, he blamed his old neighbor Grandma Li when he was a child. She told him ghost stories vividly, saying that there was a child sleeping by the window, and there was a thunderstorm at night. It was captured by the big cat monkey.Although Tong Le has not figured out what the big cat and monkey are until now, Grandma Li told him that when the big cat and monkey stretched out its paws on that thunderstorm day, she gestured towards his face to catch it with the sound of thunder. I still clearly remember that moment until now, and the fear of thunder has been deeply rooted since then...

It's just that when I was in kindergarten, I peed my pants because of being scared by thunder, and the children around me shave their faces and shout "no shame" in circles. Since then, I have never admitted that I am afraid of thunder, so now he would rather let Jiangxi think he is Scared of horror movies.
