Chapter 13 Are you looking for me?
"The number of people is wrong!"
Chen Yushu immediately stopped, slowly turned his head and looked at the bunk bed.
It was the golden autumn of October and the moonlight was still bright. The door was open, so he could see what was happening on the bunk bed through the moonlight.
He counted silently, there were seven figures in total from the head of the bunk bed to the bed.
Seven people!
But he remembers it clearly.
Yesterday, there were only seven people in the entire dormitory, including him.
Now he is still standing on the edge of the bed, and with him, there are eight of them.
So, who is the extra one?
He knew very well that there were no new people joining the pharmacy today.
"The one at the edge is Qin Jie, tall and thin, usually a very silent person. Next is Xu Hao, who has lived here the longest, but has a somewhat eccentric personality. Because of his introductory training, he looks down on newcomers like us, believing that most newcomers won't be able to master the training within three months, and then..."
Thoughts flashed through Chen Yushu's mind quickly, and his eyes suddenly focused.
The second one is not Xu Hao.
The third one is Xu Hao.
The second one was a 'figure' with an extremely pale face, who was currently curled up, lying on his side, leaning towards Xu Hao.
It is also worth mentioning that Xu Hao's movements were consistent with his, both of them curled their bodies inward, and from a distance, it looked like they were overlapping.
The two of them were very close.
At this time, Xu Hao was sleeping soundly, but his sleep was not peaceful. His face was pale, and his closed eyeballs were moving, causing his eyelids to flutter, as if he was in a nightmare.
The figure hugged Xu Hao with both hands and pressed his head against his. From Chen Yushu's perspective, he could even vaguely see the figure's mouth opening and closing, as if he was speaking, or swallowing something.
Suddenly, the figure froze, and it was obvious that his mouth closed. Then he slowly turned his head and looked in the direction of Chen Yushu.
Chen Yushu was startled and looked away almost instinctively. He moved his feet up and down as if he was taking off his shoes, then leaned towards the edge of the bed, touched the edge with one hand, made a gesture to lie down on the bed, and finally really lay down.
The 'person' watched the whole process for a while before lowering his head again and opening and closing his mouth again.
"Did you manage to escape?"
Chen Yushu breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, I felt really helpless.
I met a ghost again.
I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, I had already encountered three of them.
Thinking of what Uncle Zhong had said before, that only people with sufficient spiritual power could see ghosts, he was now more and more certain that he should also be considered a person with sufficient spiritual power.
This situation didn't happen before, maybe it's because of his 'memory awakening'?
Through these encounters with ghosts, he has gained some experience.
That is, when he 'looks' at the other person, the other person will definitely notice it. This kind of existence is like a person's gaze, very sensitive, and often interested in people who can see themselves.
For example, the reason why Xiaoshicun Jiang San, who had just died, rushed towards him in the end was because he could "see" the other party.
Obviously, this is also the case at this time.
His gaze was immediately noticed by the 'ghost', who turned his gaze directly in his direction. If he did not look away in time and make a move to get on the bed, then it was very likely that the 'ghost' would shift its target and set its sights on him.
"I just don't know how Xu Hao got involved with this guy? Was it today, or before yesterday?"
Last night, he slept all night long, so he didn't notice it.
And now, he woke up in the middle of the night... Thinking about how he had just walked back and forth next to it, he felt a little scared.
The key is now, it is not right for him to leave, and it is not right for him not to leave.
If you walk, you will pass by it again. Just when you lie down, you leave again. Although the "ghost" may not be able to retain many memories of its predecessor, it is not completely ignorant. If it has a little "wisdom" and knows how to think, it will immediately realize that something is wrong.
If, because of this, I leave Xu Hao and transfer my focus to him, wouldn't that be bad?
He does not have the noble sentiment of devoting himself to others.
“Can’t leave.
But who can sleep with this thing here?
It can’t be removed…”
Chen Yushu felt annoyed and couldn't help but shift his gaze over there again.
Perhaps because he was lying down, he could not see the ghost's figure, and of course the other party could not see his gaze, but he could still see that the "ghost" had been hugging Xu Hao, and the exposed half of its head was moving.
He could imagine that the other party was opening and closing his mouth, swallowing Xu Hao's blood and energy, and looked "angry".
This scene is so creepy.
In the middle of the night, a ghost was hugging a person and continuously sucking out his "vitality".
Anyone who sees it will feel uneasy.
Time passes by slowly.
In the meantime, some people also got up at night.
At this time, Chen Yushu would pay special attention to the 'ghost'.
But that 'ghost' seemed to be only interested in Xu Hao. No matter how much noise other people made or how they walked past it, it ignored them and just held Xu Hao tightly, not moving at all.
Even Qin Jie, who was sleeping in the first bed next to Xu Hao, got up once but failed to disturb it.
It seemed that it was only interested in Xu Hao and had no intention of causing trouble for anyone else.
Of course, other people don't see it either, or simply can't see it.
"So, maybe as long as I don't get discovered by it and can see what it's doing, I can be safe?"
Chen Yushu hesitated, thinking that this should be good news for him... right?
In the second half of the night, before the roosters crowed, Chen Yushu suddenly noticed that the figure slowly let go of the arm that was around Xu Hao and slowly stood up.
"Leaving?"
Chen Yushu was invigorated, but didn't dare to look at him carelessly. He just observed him out of the corner of his eye.
He noticed that after the other party stood up, he looked at everyone in the big bunk bed and quickly closed his eyes. After two breaths, he slowly opened them again.
At this time, the other party also got out of bed.
But he didn't leave the room, instead he walked along the bed.
One step, one step,
Until he reached the bed where he was.
Chen Yushu's breathing suddenly trembled.
What's going on?
Are you here to find me?
He was confused.
Did it know that I was watching it?
My whole body stiffened.
I continued reading with gritted teeth.
But he saw that the other party had already bent down, and disappeared in a flash.
Gone?
He couldn't help but prop himself up and look around.
There was no longer any 'ghost' around.
Did it really leave?
Or has it always been here?
Chen Yushu really couldn't sleep at this time, but he didn't dare to bend down and look under the bed.
Because he was really afraid that when he bent down, his eyes would meet 'its'.
