Chapter 22 This dormitory is really interesting
After the dance class, Class C immediately had the vocal class.
Perhaps because of what instructor An Junze said, the contestants from Class C became extra serious in class.
This also surprised vocal instructor Lu Ye, who had originally had no hope.
Especially when he heard the contestant named Jiang Monan, who looked like Mo Bei, speak, he was shocked beyond words.
Although he had heard the other party's singing in the first stage performance, Lu still suspected afterwards that the program team might have played the original singer's backing vocals for him just to increase the program's traffic.
It wasn't until he heard Jiang Mo Nan's a cappella singing in his own voice in vocal class.
The same clear and comfortable voice as in memory, unique pronunciation and bright head cavity resonance, these characteristics are exactly the same as Mo Bei!
If Mo Bei hadn't passed away many years ago, he would have suspected that he was singing this song himself!
Not only mentor Lu Ye was shocked, but also the other contestants in Class C.
"This voice is so similar... Are you sure it's not Mo Bei's imitation?"
"What are you imitating? Mo Bei has never sung this song."
Upon hearing this, the contestants who were discussing whether Jiang Monan was intentionally imitating Mo Bei immediately shut up.
Indeed, the program team had just found a composer to write this song, and Mo Bei had been dead for 20 years.
Ren Mo Tianwang has never sung it, so how can Jiang Monan imitate it?
Besides, the person's voice is quite similar to Mo Bei's.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but show envy and jealousy.
With such a good voice, it's really frustrating to compare yourself to others...
After the morning classes ended, the hungry contestants couldn't wait to rush to the cafeteria.
In an instant, the Class C practice room, which was originally packed, became empty.
Zhao Xi originally wanted to rush to the next door class B to find his brother Zhao Chen, but when he saw Mo Bei still standing in front of the mirror practicing dancing, he asked, "Brother Mo Nan, aren't you going to eat?"
Mo Bei: "I'm not hungry yet, you go first."
Hearing this, Zhao Xi nodded. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something.
"Do you need me to bring you food?"
"...No need." Mo Bei paused, "I'll go later."
Seeing the other party say this, Zhao Xi stopped forcing it.
It was a rare opportunity to be alone and quiet, so Mo Bei began to review the dance moves attentively.
Raise your hands, shake your shoulders, turn in circles... As you practice more, the connection between movements becomes more natural and no longer as stiff as it was at the beginning.
When he finished dancing for the third time, a head suddenly popped out from outside the door of Class C... oh no, two heads.
Looking at Lei Lie and Tao Xiaotie wearing red A-level training suits at the door, Mo Bei was stunned.
"Why are you here?"
Lei Lie shook the plastic bag in his hand and said, "We guessed you wouldn't go to eat. So we packed some food from the cafeteria and came to eat with you."
On the side, Tao Xiaotie nodded vaguely. He was seen holding the lunch box in one hand and chopsticks in the other, already devouring the food with relish.
Seeing this, Lei Lie's handsome face, as if carved by a knife or an axe, changed instantly.
"Why did you eat first?"
After swallowing a mouthful of braised pork, Tao Xiaotie answered concisely:
"I'm hungry."
Seeing that Lei Lie wanted to say something else, Mo Bei immediately smoothed things over, "Eat when you're hungry. The child is still young and growing."
"But this box of braised pork rice is for you!"
Lei Lie held his forehead with his hand, unable to express his feelings.
This is already the third box lunch.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to imagine that the young man in front of him could have such a big appetite.
It wasn't enough that he ate so many buns in the morning. He even finished two large boxes of lunch in the short few minutes' walk back from the cafeteria!
This made him wonder if Tao Xiaotie's stomach was made of a black hole.
He is indeed a little brat, he is eating me out of house and home.
Unlike Lei Lie who was upset, Mo Bei felt relieved when he heard this.
He was still struggling with how to reject the other party's kindness without arousing suspicion, but he never expected that Tao Xiaotie would solve his problem directly.
Suppressing his inner joy, he waved his hand and said seriously: "It's okay, anyway, I don't..."
Before he could even utter the word "hungry", Lei Lie took out a new lunch box from the plastic bag.
"Luckily, there's still a box of potato and beef left. You can have this, it seems to taste pretty good."
“…”
Looking at the lunch box handed to him, Mo Bei fell silent.
He never expected that his roommate would be so caring. Even though they were in different classes, he would still care about small things like whether he had eaten or not.
Suppressing the complicated emotions in his heart, he glanced at Lei Lie's empty hands and said, "You gave this to me, so what are you going to eat?"
Lei Lie grinned, revealing a row of white canine teeth, and snatched the takeaway bag from Tao Xiaotie's hand. "I want this. Tomato and egg rice bowl!"
Because Tao Xiaotie likes meat but not tomatoes, this bowl of tomato and egg rice was spared.
Seeing this, Mo Bei fell silent again.
Since there was still a box lunch, why were you so surprised before?
Not knowing what Mo Bei was thinking, Lei Lie sighed softly as he looked at the lunch box that had been swept clean by Tao Xiaotie.
"I originally thought of buying one of each so that everyone could share and try different flavors. But now... ugh!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Xiaotie burped in satisfaction.
Patting his still flat belly, he tilted his head and said, "I still don't feel full..."
Seeing that Mo Bei was about to hand over the lunch box in his hand, Lei Lie held him down and turned to Tao Xiaotie and said, "Don't eat anymore. You're going to have indigestion if you keep eating like this!"
Tao Xiaotie curled his lips when he heard this and retorted unconvincedly: "But I..."
"But what?"
"Nothing." Tao Xiaotie turned his head away and muttered softly, "I don't have indigestion."
Seeing this, Mo Bei thought for a moment and said, "I don't have a big appetite. It would be a waste if I couldn't finish such a big box lunch. How about giving some to Xiao Tie?"
Upon hearing this, Tao Xiaotie, who had originally hung his head, suddenly brightened up his eyes.
"It's better to be calm!"
As soon as he said this, Lei Lie slapped him in the face, "Don't be disrespectful, call me brother. Ren Mo Nan is eight years older than you."
Tao Xiaotie covered his head and retorted unconvincedly: "Aren't you also three years younger than Brother Mo Nan? Why don't you call me brother?"
The little brat's words hit home, leaving Lei Lie speechless. But he still stiffened his neck and retorted dryly, "Who said I didn't scream? I did."
Looking at the two childish ghosts quarreling with each other, Mo Bei sighed silently.
Young people are so energetic.
Fortunately, the argument between the two did not last long. After all, for Tao Xiaotie, food was more tempting.
He gave most of the meal to Tao Xiaotie. Under Lei Lie's gaze, Mo Bei swallowed half of the lunch box under great pressure.
"Is it tasty?"
Looking at the potato and beef rice in Mo Bei's hand, Lei Lie couldn't help asking.
Although he couldn't taste anything, Mo Bei nodded in order not to arouse suspicion.
"Do you want to try it?"
Lei Lie's eyes lit up, but he quickly shook his head, "Forget it. I'm on a fat-loss diet recently, and beef stew with potatoes is too high in calories."
Hearing this, Mo Bei glanced at the red and yellow scrambled eggs with tomatoes in Lei Lie's hand, then looked at Lei Lie's figure, "You're not fat."
Lei Lie sighed. "By ordinary people's standards, I'm not fat, but I look ten pounds heavier on camera. Especially when everyone else is thin, I look a bit bulky standing next to them. So I can only try to make myself thinner."
Mo Bei didn't respond.
Lei Lie is tall and has a strong frame. As a boxer, this physique is indeed advantageous. However, if it is purely for photogenic purposes, a thinner figure would be better.
This idea may be criticized as appearance anxiety, but it is the truth.
The outside world is very demanding on the appearance and figure of female stars, but the same is true for male artists like them who are singing and dancing idols.
Once you show signs of edema or weight gain in front of the camera, negative comments will be everywhere on the Internet.
Even he has to control his diet sometimes.
For this reason, he rarely dared to eat high-calorie foods on a daily basis, because once he did, he would have to double his exercise. Therefore, he fully understood Lei Lie's thoughts and actions.
Now that he had become a zombie, he wouldn't gain weight like before. But he had also lost his sense of taste and digestion, so whatever he ate tasted like wax.
But one thing that has never changed is the maintenance of the body.
Touching his stomach full of food, Mo Bei sighed silently.
...It seems that I have to rely on basking in the moonlight to repair my body tonight.
What Mo Bei didn't expect was that at 4 pm, the originally sunny weather gradually became gloomy. Not long after, drizzles began to fall, and at 5 pm it turned into a heavy downpour.
Even as night fell, the heavy rain showed no sign of stopping. Looking out the window at the rainy night, Mo Bei's expression gradually became solemn.
He asked the system: "What would happen if there was no moon for one night?"
[If there is a spotlight on the stage, there will be no problem.]
"What if there isn't?"
The body will begin to decay, producing corpse poison. When the poison accumulates to a certain level, it will cause a backlash, causing the host to lose their mind and indiscriminately attack any living thing.
【Considering that the host has eaten three meals a day, the body's decay rate will be accelerated.】
[Tips: To avoid the stench of a corpse and arousing suspicion, it is best to spray some perfume or deodorant~]
"Don't talk nonsense. I just want to know how long it usually takes from the generation of corpse poison to the backlash of the corpse poison."
[This is directly proportional to the host's physical condition. The more alive the host is, the longer it will take for the corpse poison to accumulate and erupt.]
[However, given the host's current condition, the corpse poison outbreak will only take three days.]
“……!!!”
Three days?
Although he roughly guessed that his current physical condition was not optimistic, Mo Bei did not expect that the corpse poison would only take three days to break out.
He tried his best to remain calm and asked the system, "If it doesn't rain tomorrow night, can I still make up for it by holding on until then and then basking in the moonlight?"
[Yes. It will just take a little longer to recover than usual.]
Hearing this, Mo Bei breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope it can recover.
It seems I have to stop eating next. Besides that, I have to keep an eye on the weather forecast and the moon phase.
Otherwise, if he encounters a situation in the future where there is no stage spotlight and it rains at night for a week or even half a month, wouldn’t that be very disadvantageous for him?
Looking at the heavy rain outside the window, Mo Bei's worries grew even worse, and he didn't even hear Lei Lie and the others returning to the dormitory.
"Brother Mo Nan, do you want to take a shower?"
Lei Lie stood at the doorway, shouting, toiletries in hand. Tao Xiaotie, who was standing nearby, munched on an apple he'd gotten from nowhere, blinking at him with his big, round eyes.
After a day of spending time together, Lei Lie was no longer as serious and taciturn as when they first met. Not only did he become more talkative, but he also changed his way of addressing Mo Bei from the unfamiliar "you" to the familiar "Brother Mo Nan".
Under his influence, Tao Xiaotie who was in Class A also followed his example and called him "Brother Mo Nan".
However, Mo Bei did not intend to go to the bathhouse with them to scrub their bodies to enhance brotherhood.
As a zombie, especially one that has entered a state of accelerated decay, he goes to the bathhouse to take a bath simply because he thinks he is not rotting fast enough.
So, he could only shake his head and say, "You guys go first, I'll go later."
Hearing this, Lei Lie didn't want to force him, so he took Tao Xiaotie to the bathhouse.
Hearing the footsteps of two people walking away outside the door, Bai Li, who was lying on the upper bunk, tilted her head slightly to look at the straight figure in front of the window. Then, a meaningful look flashed in her beautiful fox eyes.
This dormitory is really interesting.
