time traveler

The slender eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings, and he slowly opened his eyes, the sudden influx of light made him squint uncomfortably.

In the blooming white light, Xia Run vaguely felt a hand pushing him, and there was a "buzzing" sound as if there was a thin film between his ears.

"……Are you OK……"

Xia Run turned to look at the speaker, with a trace of confusion in Tao Hua's eyes, and when he blinked, he was fully awake.

Turning his head, he found that he didn't know when he was lying on the ground, the vegetables in his hand were scattered all over the floor, and a middle-aged man with a kind face was squatting beside him, with a worried expression on his face.

"Young man, are you okay? Do you want me to call an ambulance for you, huh?" The middle-aged man asked in dialect.

Xia Run got up in a daze, and forced a smile: "No need... cough cough..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, his throat hurt like tearing, Xia Run froze, what happened to his throat? !

"Are you really okay? I heard you screaming miserably just now. I was shocked. I thought I had killed someone." The middle-aged man said worriedly.

Xia Run stroked her throat and nodded repeatedly, expressing that she was fine.

"Young man, you should pay attention to exercising at ordinary times. You see, you have moved here for more than three months, and I haven't seen you go out a few times. This is not good, and you have to change it. Also, don't always be cold when you are young. With a face, not at all angry, go out more to get some air..." The middle-aged man chattered earnestly, seeing that he was really fine, he motioned to follow him to the depths of the alley, "...you If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, I'm not the kind of landlord who doesn't care about everything except collecting money..."

"Wait!" After catching a few key words, Xia Run grabbed the man's arm, "Are you my landlord?"

"Yes."

"I moved here for three months?"

"That's right, didn't you sign the contract with me three months ago? I have a good memory!" The landlord turned his head wonderingly, looked at Xia Run, and found that the frightened expression on his face was not fake, "You Are you really okay?"

Xia Run was still shocked at 'Who am I?where am I?In the self-torture of "I'm still not myself", Wen Yan quickly restrained his collapsed mood, pretending to be relaxed and smiled: "Oh, I remember, sorry, I fell into a daze just now."

He didn't want to be sent to the police station or mental hospital before he knew anything.

"Oh, as long as it's okay, as long as it's okay." The landlord turned his head and continued to walk towards the end of the alley. He didn't speak for the rest of the way. Maybe he also felt that his tenant was a little strange today. It's the same, a bit of the feeling of schizophrenia that is often said on the Internet, and I'm afraid that if we continue the chat, this young man will say something more inexplicable.

Fortunately, the alley was not deep, and the weird atmosphere didn't last long. They soon came to the end, where there was an old four-story building. The landlord opened the anti-theft door and pointed to the stairs: "Young man, go back quickly." Come on, remember not to stay in the house all the time, come out more often." To avoid any psychological problems in the house, if this continues, I am not willing to rent the room to you.

The landlord didn't say the latter words, but Xia Run understood his eyes.

After thanking the landlord, Xia Run bravely walked up the stairs. He didn't know which floor the room he was renting was on, and he didn't dare to challenge the landlord's sensitive nerves anymore, so he could only take one step at a time.

Reaching out to touch his pocket, Xia Run took out a bunch of keys and a wallet from one pocket, and a brand new mobile phone from the other.

The phone screen was locked. He tried the fingerprint of his left index finger, and it turned on. It seems to be similar to his habit!After carefully checking the gallery, he saw the photo of the rental contract mentioned by the landlord just now among the few pictures.

303, it seems to be on the third floor.

Walking up to the third floor, when Xia Run was still thinking about what to do without the house number, the inertia in his subconscious made him stop in front of the door in the middle.

is it here?

Xia Run tried to insert and enter the key, and it really matched.

This is an ordinary one-bedroom room with very simple furnishings. There is a single bed with clean brown striped sheets and quilts neatly stacked at the end of the bed. There is a table near the window with a large A stack of books and a laptop, the window is open, the dark curtains are fluttering slightly in the gentle wind, a pot of unknown small flowers bloom brightly on the window sill, exuding a faint fragrance...

Although the whole room is simple, it is clean and tidy. It doesn't look like the room of an otaku who hardly goes out and can stay in the house for three months!

After closing the door, Xia Run walked quickly to the bathroom and looked in the mirror anxiously.

In the mirror, a fair and handsome young man looked back at him silently, with clear and beautiful eyebrows, thin peach-colored lips slightly pursed, and a pair of peach blossom eyes that were slightly raised, stared round because of shock, and paired with black and white pupils, he looked a little cute Pitiful.

Xia Run hurriedly opened his collar and found a small light-colored petal-shaped birthmark on his collarbone.

Bending down and rolling up the trouser legs, as expected, I saw two scars on the knees that were slightly lighter than the skin color - these were left when he was a child - it is said that he was in poor health for some reason when he was a child, not to mention getting sick, he was always flat When I fell, my knees were always injured and injured, so I left scars on both knees that could not be removed.

That's right, the appearance is the same; the location of the birthmark and the scar are also exactly the same, this is clearly his own body!

That being the case, who was in his body before?And who signed the contract with the landlord? !What the hell happened?Why does he have no impression at all? !

When he thinks carefully, he becomes terrified, cold sweat runs down his cheeks, Xia Run is shrouded in panic, he wraps his arms around his trembling body because of fear, and forces himself to calm down.

He also needs to confirm whether he is still in his own world.

Taking out his mobile phone, he dialed the landline number at home, but it turned out to be an empty number, and then dialed the mobile phones of his parents and younger sister, but the people who answered were not people he knew well. Unwilling, he dialed the numbers of friends, classmates, and teachers he remembered again. , Either the person is wrong or the number is empty. Open the webpage with the mobile phone, and the national leaders in the news are no longer the names he is familiar with!

Xia Run threw down his cell phone in a slump, panicked in his heart, this is no longer his world!

Is this how the high-latitude world turned out to be?Or maybe these are just his fantasies?Is it because of the sequelae after entering the high-latitude world?Or maybe all of this is just a dream within a dream, and everything will return to normal when I wake up?

Staggering out of the bathroom, Xia Run threw herself on the bed and closed her eyes, forcing herself to fall asleep quickly.

Originally, he thought that after experiencing so many bizarre things, it would be difficult to fall asleep, but as usual, he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

Xia Run woke up to a burst of exciting music, not a melody he was familiar with. He frowned and was stunned for a moment before realizing that it was the ringtone that came with his phone. He picked up the phone beside his pillow and connected it. , asked in a daze: "Hey, who is it?"

The other end was stunned, and a clear male voice chuckled and said, "Are you sleeping? I hope I didn't disturb you."

"What's the matter?" Xia Run rubbed her eyes and yawned.

"Well, it's nothing special. I just want to remind you that the departure time is approaching. Please be prepared and be on time!"

"Set off……?"

Hearing that Xia Run suddenly woke up completely, he felt something was wrong, he looked at the mobile phone in his hand, it was not the one he usually used.

Sitting up abruptly, Xia Run found that she was still in this strange small room, but her clothes had been changed into a set of blue plaid pajamas, and a pair of slippers were neatly placed beside the bed, with the toes facing outwards, for easy access Not far away, the flowerpot on the window sill was moved to the table, and there were several hangers hanging on the anti-theft net of the window, on which were drying the clothes he wore before going to bed.

Wait, when did he change into pajamas?Who did his laundry?When did the mobile phone come to the bed? !

Xia Run felt a chill in his heart, and a chill ran up his back from the tailbone. Even the air-conditioning quilt tightly wrapped around his body couldn't bring him any warmth. He unconsciously bit his lower lip. All kinds of ghost stories, horror movies, etc. Uncontrollably welling up from the depths of his memory, fear occupied his brain.

'Don't be afraid, I'm not a ghost. '

Xia Run tried hard and bit his lip. He tremblingly raised his hand and knocked on his head. Did he have an auditory hallucination here?

'I am real. '

Could it be the golden finger of welfare given after time travel in previous novels—the system?Xia Run thought happily in bitterness.

'I'm not that kind of thing. '

Ha, that must be the snail girl who likes to send warmth and love!

'Excuse me, my biological sex is male. '

This voice is very patient, with a gentle tone and a magic power that can calm people's hearts. His timbre is also very special, low and magnetic, with a slightly hoarse ending. Understated elegance.

Xia Run, who has voice control attributes, couldn't help feeling a little fond of the owner of the voice. He suppressed his fear, mustered up courage, and asked tremblingly, "Then, then who are you? Why are you talking in my head?"

The voice froze for a moment, a little confused: "I forgot, I woke up in this body three months ago and found that I don't remember anything. '

"Then do you know who I am?"

'The original owner of this body. '

Xia Run felt that he found a loophole: "Since you have no memory, why do you know that I am the master instead of me occupying your body?" '

The voice paused again, 'Because I woke you up by accident. '

"What do you mean?" Xia Run asked in surprise.

'I can't explain the detailed process to you in words, abstractly speaking, it's like a door suddenly opened, and then I found you sleeping on the other side of the door. '

'I do not understand! Xia Run bit the wound on his lower lip, the pain kept him calm.

'It's like your sea of ​​consciousness is a large room, and then divide this room into ten equal parts, one of which is for me, and the other nine for you, separated by a closed door, when I The moment I opened that door, I suddenly understood that this body is actually yours. '

"Then why did you open that door? Is it because you know you are a foreigner?"

'No, I wasn't sure before that. ' said the voice, 'I understand only when I see you. '

'The reason for opening the door? 'Xia Run thought in her heart unwillingly.

The voice paused again, as if he was angry at his aggressive questioning, but he still replied patiently, 'Because it was too crowded, I felt very restrained so I searched for the door. '

'Can you peep into my mind? Xia Run changed the question, he just asked alternately thinking and speaking, and the voice answered.

The owner of the voice was really angry this time, and Xia Run could feel the displeasure coming from him.

After a long silence, he said coldly, "I have no intention or desire to peek at other people's thoughts. Only when you have the desire to communicate with me and I am willing to receive your thoughts can we build a bridge of thinking between us. Dialogue with each other - this is the prerequisite for the exchange of ideas.Of course, because of our current special situation, we can communicate with each other without building bridges, and because the consciousness bodies are too close, we can feel each other's true emotions to some extent. '

'So you're mad right now? '

Xia Run couldn't help smiling, a shallow pear dimple bloomed on his right cheek, he suddenly felt a little relieved, most of the panic and anxiety caused by being in a strange world dissipated, at least in this strange world, temporarily There is someone (or something else) who will always be by your side, so you don't have to face it alone.
