Chapter 21: Twenty-first Night
Thursday, September 14, the weather was cloudy.
This is the 15th day since Qiu Tingxu traveled through the book.
On the first day, he failed to change anything before the original owner cut his wrists, but he prevented Xu Yansheng from cutting his wrists later.
Although he didn't know why Xu Yansheng cut his wrists.
But he thought he had avoided the inexplicable collapse of the world.
Until Xu Yansheng went to the bathroom in the middle of reading as usual.
There was the sound of a door closing, followed by the sound of gurgling water.
There was a loud bang as if something exploded.
Qiu Tingxu was originally thinking about how to push down the enemy's second tower, but was suddenly frightened by a strange crisp sound, and his hands began to tremble, and he was accidentally killed by the tower.
"Xu Yansheng? What was that sound just now?"
Xu Yansheng didn't say anything, he couldn't speak either.
Qiu Tingxu didn't bother to pick up his phone, nor did he care about being polite.
He clearly heard the sound coming from the bathroom, so he decided to go straight to open the door.
I twisted it, but it didn't open.
"Fuck, you, a boy, lock the door when you go to the toilet? Xu Yansheng, open the door quickly!"
…
He couldn't even wait for Xu Yansheng to come and open the door and wanted to kick it.
But the door was a glass door, and it would be easy to accidentally hurt Xu Yansheng if he kicked it. After thinking for two seconds, he had to give up such a brutal way of opening the door.
At most he would wait for Xu Yansheng for 3 seconds. If he didn’t open the door after 3 seconds, he would kick it.
Qiu Ting thought so clearly.
Fortunately, Xu Yansheng didn't let him wait for long. He heard Xu Yansheng's steady footsteps gradually approaching.
The moment the bathroom door opened, Qiu Tingxu's eyes had no time to notice anything.
His always sensitive nose told him that something must have happened.
Otherwise, why would there be such a strong smell of blood?
He belatedly noticed the marks winding along the ground, bright red, terrifying marks.
For some reason, he subconsciously followed the still dripping blood and shifted his gaze to Xu Yansheng's right wrist.
Then his mentality collapsed, and he asked him while looking for his spare bandage.
"Xu Yansheng, why is your wrist injured? I was staring at you like this, how come you still got hurt..."
The last sentence was almost inaudible, but Xu Yansheng still heard it.
He turned his head to look at the bathroom window, where only broken glass remained, and his eyebrows moved slightly.
Qiu Tingxu ran over and carefully tied a tight knot on his upper arm with the extra bandage, then went to stop the bleeding on his wrist.
What I saw was a piece of broken glass deeply embedded in my wrist.
He was stunned and angry.
"What the fuck is going on?"
He didn't dare to act rashly. After taking a look at the situation in the bathroom, he pulled Xu Yansheng to the infirmary.
"Fuck, why did the window suddenly break?"
"It wasn't you who smashed it, could it be someone else who smashed it from outside?"
Then a lot of glass fragments appeared on the ground, and it was impossible that Xu Yansheng had smashed it from inside.
Besides, if Xu Yansheng wanted to commit suicide, there was no need to do so loudly.
Qiu Tingxu could only think of who smashed the window from outside.
But this is the sixth floor, what could be so powerful?
Xu Yansheng hastily wrapped a few bandages around his neck, barely stopping the horrific scene of blood dripping.
If it drips all the way to the infirmary, something will inevitably leak out.
Qiu Tingxu just walked to the door, then stopped and asked, "Do you still have strength? If not, shall I call the doctor over?"
Xu Yansheng looked at his cut wrist and followed him silently.
Actually, this was nothing, he had often seen so much blood before.
He made them all by himself.
However, seeing Qiu Tingxu's nervous expression, he suddenly couldn't ignore the wound anymore.
So I decided to follow Qiu Tingxu's arrangement for the time being.
Qiu Tingxu was afraid that he was just trying to show off, so he gave up taking Xu Yansheng and walked over by himself. In this situation, he didn't dare let him move too much to speed up the blood circulation.
So he violently pulled down his bedding, placed it directly on the ground, and let Xu Yansheng lie on it.
Xu Yansheng was stunned for a moment, then lay down as he was told, even obediently placing his hands face up on his abdomen.
Qiu Tingxu tapped his head and pressed his phone in annoyance.
"How stupid! I glanced at the infirmary's phone last time and wanted to drag you there. I almost messed up the process."
After dialing the phone, Qiu Tingxu described the current situation of their dormitory in an extremely urgent tone, and urged the doctor to come quickly three times before he felt a little relieved.
Then he saw Xu Yansheng lying on the ground, staring at him without blinking.
He touched it belatedly and saw a thin layer of sweat seeping out of his forehead.
Their dormitory has air conditioning on, and the temperature is 16℃, which is a level that most people would feel cold.
But he was sweating all over.
All cold sweat.
How can you avoid cold sweats?
In just these few days, he lost count of how many times he had lamented that he was the savior, but a bucket of cold water suddenly broke on him.
It made his little heart pound, as if he was afraid that the world would explode in the next second.
So what's the point of his trip?
He covered his face, bent his legs and squatted beside Xu Yansheng, saying in a muffled voice: "Xu Yansheng, how can I protect you..."
"We are living in the same dormitory, but we still can't guarantee your safety. What should we do?"
He has always been a cheerful person and rarely feels so frustrated.
The discomfort and panic that had accumulated since coming to this world suddenly burst out.
Xu Yansheng saw a transparent liquid leaking out from Qiu Tingxu's palm and dripping onto his arm.
It wasn't hot, but it seemed to burn from the surface of his skin to his heart.
——How could anyone care about his safety to the point of crying?
——This is too outrageous.
——Obviously, others have always watched him struggle in the mire with cold eyes, and obviously, this person has only known him for a short time.
——This person obviously shouldn’t know anything, but it seemed like he knew he would get hurt?
——Why would you cry for him?
There are many seeds of doubt planted in his heart, which are in urgent need of breaking through the soil and seeing the light of day.
But even though his heart was like a raging wave, he couldn't express it with his mouth at the moment.
For a moment, two different feelings of powerlessness permeated the dormitory.
So when the doctor knocked on the door, he thought the person was dead.
Seeing that Xu Yansheng was still looking at him with his eyes open, he immediately walked over with the first aid kit in one hand and patted his chest with the other hand as if in fear.
"My goodness, when I came in just now, I almost thought I was at a death scene. You looked like a little classmate who had lost his parents, it was so scary."
He methodically helped Xu Yansheng remove the glass fragments with sterilized tweezers, disinfect it, apply hemostatic medicine, and put on a bandage.
"What's going on? This glass can't just fly towards your hand for no reason, right?"
Xu Yansheng was speechless. What a coincidence! The glass really flew towards his hand for no reason, but could he say anything?
He can't, but Qiu Tingxu can.
He was shaking with anger, "I don't know which bastard was smashing the glass outside, and Xu Yansheng happened to be relieving himself inside, and was injured by the exploded glass!"
"Fuck it, if I find out who it is, I will beat him up so hard that his parents won't recognize him!"
Xu Yansheng: ...
In fact, he didn't hear any sound of breaking glass before it exploded.
He was injured when he subconsciously raised his hands to protect his head after the glass exploded, but he was later sure that the glass was broken evenly.
It's not like the radial shattering after being hit.
But there is no way to explain this phenomenon scientifically.
The doctor thought about how many floors he had climbed and said suspiciously, "Sixth floor? Who would come here to smash the glass in your bathroom?"
Qiu Tingxu didn't care. His IQ was temporarily lowered by anger and fear. "I don't care. I will check the surveillance when the time comes. This is murder!"
The doctor thought about it and realized that both students had wrist problems, which was really a headache.
It also makes people worry, "Okay, I will help you get the monitoring when the time comes. I'm the school doctor, so it's more convenient."
Fortunately, in order to protect the students' lives and safety, this school has installed surveillance cameras in almost all locations except the toilets and student dormitories, otherwise we would not be able to find out anything.
Qiu Tingxu took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
At this time, the doctor glanced at the cold Xu Yansheng and quietly asked Qiu Tingxu: "Is his inability to speak congenital or psychological?"
Qiu Tingxu pushed away the doctor who was a little too close to him and said in a normal voice, "Don't whisper. Xu Yansheng doesn't care about other people's opinions at all. Just treat him normally. It's aphasia, not congenital."
The doctor looked at Qiu Tingxu in surprise for a long while: "Wow, you understand him quite well."
Qiu Tingxu: "Prescribe some medicine quickly, preferably something that can quickly replenish blood. He usually looks anemic, and it will be difficult to restore him now."
The doctor jokingly said, "Why, this is your wife, why are you more panicked than a doctor like me?"
Qiu Tingxu pushed the person out. "I haven't asked you yet, are you the only doctor in the infirmary? Why is it always you?"
The doctor walked out reluctantly. To get medicine, he had to go to the infirmary. His first aid kit only contained first aid items, so he couldn't give Qiu Tingxu much else.
"You're still talking. I was just doing odd jobs today, but you called me. Now you're asking why it's always me."
Qiu Tingxu was shocked: "Do you change the number of whoever is on duty in your infirmary? Don't you have a universal number?"
Doctor: "Yes, it's on the door of the infirmary. Who told you not to remember it?"
Qiu Tingxu: ...
He just remembered the number that was on the doctor's desk at the time.
"Remember to bring the medicine to me after you prescribe it. I can't leave Xu Yansheng's side right now, for fear of any accidents."
"Thank you, Dr. Han!"
After saying that, he ruthlessly locked the person outside the door.
Han Yun looked down at the small nameplate hanging on his chest, smiled, shook his head and walked away.
"Nan'an University is going to be very lively this year..."
