weekend.

Zhou Qili and Qian Ai, who skipped school, finally came back, and they all looked good. As long as they were in high spirits, Xu Jiao guessed that they were in a good mood recently, and they didn't encounter any dirty things. .

Zhou Qili returned to the dormitory with a big bag, some new clothes she bought, and some special products and fruits that Qian Aina's relatives had forced over before leaving. The first time she saw Xu Jiao when she opened the door, she ran over with a smile :

"Xiao Xu! You've won the bet! From tomorrow onwards, I will obediently brush the sixth-level questions and try to get a set of real questions for two days, okay?"

"I also brought you an amulet. I asked for it in the temple. It's really good there. When the master saw me and Ai Ai, he said that we must have had some bad luck recently. The amulet was drawn by him himself. Yes, I heard that it is useful!"

Qian Ai went to say hello to other dormitory friends. She was chatting outside, but now she came a few steps slower, but she was very happy when she saw Xu Jiao. Seeing Zhou Qili putting down her things, she took out a yellow paper from her bag. The folded amulet was stuffed into Xu Jiao's place, and she also ran over to get close to the two of them:

"How about we go out for a meal today? If I treat a guest, I will send bad luck to our dormitory!"

She knew that Xu Jiao's life was a little tight, so she simply said that she would treat guests, so that Zhou Qili and Xu Jiao were both in the category of being invited, and Xu Jiao would not think too much for no reason.

Xu Jiao held the talisman that Zhou Qili had put in her right hand, and when she saw the two roommates' faces were flushed, there was a little embarrassment on their faces: "I'll have a part-time tutor later, and I'm going to teach students, so I'll do it now. When we go out, it is estimated that we will not be able to have dinner together, why don't you two go to eat?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Jiao heard a sound from her old mobile phone.

It's an information sound.

She picked it up and looked at it, and it turned out to be a message from the parents of the students, saying that they had returned to their hometown in the countryside on Friday, and had just turned back just now. Week is over for now.

Zhou Qili stood beside her, caught a glimpse of the content on Xu Jiao's phone, and immediately clapped her hands: "God's will, God is suggesting that you go to dinner with us."

Xu Jiao smiled helplessly. It was enough to refuse once because of the business. Repeatedly refusing this group activity would easily hurt her feelings.

Seeing that she didn't refuse, Qian Ai immediately supported the pole on the upper bunk and went to the bed: "Then I'll put on my makeup now, it's very hot outside today, I've sweated a lot along the way, and the makeup must have been spent. "

Zhou Qili also went to her excitedly: "Did you buy a new liquid foundation recently? Let me try it out for you!"

It's not enough to try it out on her own, Zhou Qili did not forget to bring Xu Jiao: "Jiaojiao, do you want to try it? You don't usually wear makeup, why don't we help you fix it today? I really want to try it out for you. Oh, you have such a good foundation, you must look good after makeup."

Qian Ai originally treasured the bottle of liquid foundation that she had not opened, but now that she heard Zhou Qili's proposal, her eyes were a little eager to try, and she sat on her upper bunk and looked at Xu Jiao.

Xu Jiao slowly blinked her eyes.

The words of refusal came to her lips. The red-clothed Zheng Zhiyu appeared beside her at some point, the bright red clothes reflected a little in her eyes, her pale fingertips draped over her back, and lowered her head to her ear. Advised:

"Promise them."

"I also want to see what you look like with your makeup on."

Only Xu Jiao could see her appearance and hear her voice. The two roommates in front of her had no idea what was going on. She only felt that the temperature in the dormitory had dropped a little.

Qian Ai rubbed her arm indifferently. Seeing that Xu Jiao was a little shaken, she echoed Zhou Qili's words with a smile: "Try it, you can choose different styles of makeup, I can use eye shadow, blush, highlight, and shadow!"

Xu Jiao had just uttered the word "no" halfway, when she swallowed her voice vaguely, and no one could see it. A pale fingertip boldly stuck to her lips, smashing all the rest of her reluctance. Press back.

Xu Jiao expressionlessly increased the strength between her teeth, biting the ice cold that came in, but the man behind her didn't seem to notice, she just lay on her shoulders and laughed in a low voice. of pleasure and madness.

Qian Ai: "Huh?"

Zhou Qili was also at a loss: "What did you say?"

They only saw Xu Jiao open her mouth, but did not understand what she was about to say, and they all showed puzzled expressions when they saw that she stopped in the middle of what she was saying.

Although she knew that the two roommates couldn't see Zheng Zhiyu's actions, but being teased in public in front of two acquaintances, Xu Jiao's ears still had a reluctant tinge of red, and then she nodded.

Zheng Zhiyu pinched her ears and praised her in a low voice, "How good."

After speaking, she disappeared, not giving Xu Jiao a chance to take revenge at all. Being watched by two roommates, Xu Jiao could not vent her anger against the air or dig out the tablet that had been properly hidden, so she could only play Falling teeth and swallowing blood, he used his long-lost acting skills to show a smile of anticipation, and replied nonchalantly:

"I mean, okay, I want to try it."

Makeup seems to be a thing of a few lifetimes ago.

Xu Jiao remembered that in Feng Qingyu's world, she got up early every day to go to the crew to put on makeup and change costumes for filming, but now she feels in a trance that she hasn't been in front of the camera for a long time.

Spotlights, lenses, demeanor, drama…

She faced the mirror, holding a makeup brush in her hand, and without any help from Qian Ai, she evenly spread the foundation on her face. This foundation is very delicate, and its moisture content is not low. The foundation of Xu Jiao is good, the skin is not dehydrated, sensitive, etc. After the foundation is applied, it is very smooth.

Qian Ai gave her the whitest shade. After applying the base makeup, Xu Jiao's skin became translucent and fair. She perfectly created the makeup look that the foundation wanted to show. The sophistication is more obvious.

She picked up the eyebrow pencil and added the color at the end of her brows at will, and chose the most common earth-color eyeshadow palette at random. When the makeup was about to be completed, Qian Ai slowly said :

"Xueba, why are you so skilled?"

"Don't you never wear makeup?"

Zhou Qili was looking forward to the effect of her makeup, but now after hearing Qian Ai's question, she suddenly reacted, supporting her face and echoing: "Yes, why are you so skilled? I don't know what it is, how do you distinguish it so clearly?"

Xu Jiao stopped using the brush to apply eyeshadow, and tapped the middle end of the brush on her wrist, dropping a layer of excess powder, which slowly spread out in the air and dissipated like fine dust.

She said casually, "Look at what you guys have used."

Qian Ai: "???"

Qian Ai: "You mean you can know it just by looking at it?"

Zhou Qili was also a little dazed: "A student who doesn't have the ability to remember is not a good makeup artist?"

Xu Jiao let them guess, she just put on a light makeup at random, and then the coldness between her brows in the mirror, but her facial features were a bit more gorgeous, even if she stood in the crowd, people could not take their eyes away at first sight. Her face, slightly adjusted the angle of her facing the mirror, that is the most suitable appearance for her to face the camera.

Zhou Qili, who had been waiting for her makeup effect to come out, picked up her mobile phone and took a picture of her looking in the mirror at the moment. After a few seconds, the picture in the mobile phone popped up.

Although the light is low, it does not detract from the beauty of the person in the photo.

Zhou Qili just wanted to show Xu Jiao the photo on her phone, but her eyes were suddenly fixed on one of the parts.

On Xu Jiao's shoulder, there was a very pale hand that didn't look like an ordinary person.

Like snow-white knuckles.

Zhou Qili's heart skipped a beat, and when Xu Jiao looked over, she forced a smile and said to her, "I... I wanted to take a picture of you just now, but I didn't get it right, so I'll delete it now."

After speaking, she seemed to want to wash the memory out of her mind. After unlocking the screen of her phone, she quickly pressed the delete button below the photo. When she handed the phone to Xu Jiao, the previous photo was already there. gone.

Xu Jiao didn't pay much attention to it, and Qian Ai didn't notice this detail either. She complimented Xu Jiao on her makeup, and then dragged her two dear roommates out.

Zhou Qili felt guilty. She didn't know how to face her mobile phone for the time being. She was afraid that she would see something she shouldn't read, so she threw her mobile phone on the bed before going out.

Qian Ai carried a shiny shoulder bag, held Xu Jiao's hand, and looked back at her:

"Xiao Li, hey? Don't you bring your cell phone?"

Zhou Qili smiled, and the curvature of the corners of her lips quickly disappeared: "Well, the phone is out of power, let's go, it's at the school gate anyway, and it won't take long to eat a meal."

On the other hand, Xu Jiao looked at her with a rather thoughtful look on her face.

"Xiao Xu..."

In the restaurant, after ordering the meal, Qian Ai went to the bathroom. There were only Xu Jiao and Zhou Qili at the table. Thinking of the picture she had just seen when taking pictures, Zhou Qili hesitated for a long time, and finally summoned up the courage to meet Xu Jiao expectantly. Open your mouth.

Xu Jiao was looking down at her phone. On the surface, she was chatting with someone, but she was actually communicating with Zheng Zhiyu by typing. The person was talking in her ear, and she typed on the phone in response.

Just now, Zheng Zhiyu went out with her, hiding in her shadow as usual, but when she passed a street outside the school gate, she suddenly told Xu Jiao that she would leave for a while, until Xu Jiao and her roommate entered the restaurant, then she didn't know what to do. Seeing her back again, she spoke to Xu Jiao in a good tone:

There is a business nearby.

When she said she wanted to introduce a part-time job to Xu Jiao, she didn't see anything in the past few days, as if she had forgotten about it. Now that she took the initiative to mention it, Xu Jiao simply took advantage of the situation and asked about all aspects of the job. Avoid smearing your eyes when you get it.

"Is it the part-time job you said last time? What exactly is it?"

After typing this sentence, Xu Jiao raised her head and glanced at Zhou Qili, showed a shallow smile, and said slowly, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Qili looked left and right, and said hesitantly, "Well... that is, have you encountered anything bad recently?"

She was brooding about the ghost hand in the photo.

Xu Jiao's expression didn't change, she just asked, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Zhou Qili said with a haha: "I'm just curious about your daily life in the dormitory alone."

Xu Jiao observed her expression, as if she understood something, and reassured: "There is nothing bad, don't worry about me."

At the same time, she typed another sentence in the dialog box on her mobile phone: "Did you do something to scare her when you put on makeup today?"

There are not too many people in the restaurant. The flavor of this restaurant is quite special. It is made of Northeastern cuisine. The portion is full, the price is cheap, and the taste is guaranteed. It's not that Xu Jiao and the others came early today, maybe they have to wait at the door.

There are so many people that it is inevitable that the eyes are mixed, and Zheng Zhiyu is too lazy to show his appearance. He only hides in Xu Jiao's shadow and leaves a cool breath near her shoulders, as if acting as an eye, watching Xu Jiao's screen.

Seeing a question added above, the dark shadow under his feet moved, and after a long time, a familiar voice slipped into Xu Jiao's ears: "I don't know her, why should I scare her?"

"Jiaojiao, why do you always focus on these people?"

Xu Jiao pursed her lips when she heard the coquettish and complaining words, but did not answer. Zheng Zhiyu sighed faintly when she saw that she did not respond, and then answered:

"When she photographed you before, maybe... she accidentally photographed me."

Hearing this law-abiding answer, Xu Jiao had a bottom line in her heart. At that time, Zhou Qili nodded suspiciously and told her, "Remember to bring the amulet I gave you."

Xu Jiao smiled: "Okay."

Just after saying these two sentences to her roommate, Xu Jiao sat up abruptly—

where no one can see.

She was poked in the itchy waist.

A little itchy and a little sore.

It's a pity that the initiator is now unable to fight, so she can only sit there half-tortured, chatting freely with Zhou Qili about the school.

After Qian Ai came back, the dishes on the table slowly began to be served. There was a large pot in the center of the table. The waiter first poured the pickled beef that had been marinated in advance, and then stuck the flat, white sauerkraut on the edge. Steamed buns, like making pot stickers, are finally covered with a thick pot lid made of wood.

Only the position of the air outlet, there is a curling heat, and the transpiring fragrance leaks out secretly, making the diners' stomachs eager to move.

The three of them happened to be sitting against the wall, next to a cold wall, Xu Jiao sat alone, because the structure of this table was rather special, and the dishes were heated in a pot, so there was no tablecloth on the table, only the use of I don't know whether it is made of wood or iron, and it is boxy, which is especially suitable for gatherings.

On the table was hot, rising air. Under the table, Xu Jiao's calf exposed in a blue floral dress slowly climbed up.

Her throat moved, and by raising her hand to pick up the cup, she concealed the words leaking from her lips:

"Don't make trouble."

Xu Jiao said in a low voice.

Zheng Zhiyu seemed to not exist, and continued to tease herself, neither answering Xu Jiao's words nor looking at the warning words she typed on the phone, but only gently stroked her ankles and calves all the way up. past.

Xu Jiao couldn't sit still, as if countless ants were crawling up her legs. Her calf was pinched and pinched, rubbed and rubbed. In order to hide her emotions, she drank three whole cups of cold drinks.

Both Zhou Qili and Qian Ai laughed at her: "Our dormitory finally came out for a meal, how can you just drink water, Xueba?"

Xu Jiao's lips moved, "A little thirsty."

After finally waiting for the lid to be lifted, she hurriedly moved her chopsticks a few times, barely filling her stomach to two or three points, so she wanted to put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hand and go to the bathroom to have a good communication with a certain kid who was overly joking.

However, as soon as the chopsticks in his hand were released, the coolness between the legs disappeared. The other party seemed to have grasped her temper very accurately, knowing when she could step on her tolerance limit and dance, and when she was about to piss her off. So take it when you see it.

Xu Jiao didn't put down the chopsticks, and it didn't matter if she didn't put it down. Her eyes fell on the fragrant sauerkraut and beef stir-fried fans in front of her, and the light in her eyes could not be extinguished.

"Xiao Xu, don't tell me you're full after eating so much?"

The roommates were about to eat, and suddenly saw Xu Jiao stop her chopsticks and didn't move for a long time, her eyes turned around her, as if she wanted to know if she was looking for an excuse to lose weight secretly.

Xu Jiao's fingertips clenched tightly, but she couldn't resist the temptation to eat meat for a while, she picked up the water glass and drank some water, and continued to move her chopsticks:

"No, just slow down."

Large dishes, small barbecue skewers, frozen desserts, drinks…

After eating this meal, Qian Ai happily went to pay for the bill. Zhou Qili felt her stomach and figured out whether she could reduce the extra meat that grew on her body before the summer. Xu Jiao was thinking about the business nearby that Zheng Zhiyu said before the meal. In this matter, after the bill was settled, I went out with the two for a while, and suddenly said:

"I have something to do here temporarily, you two should go back first."

Qian Ai and Zhou Qili looked at each other hand in hand, and then Qian Ai asked gossip, "Then are you coming back tonight?"

Zhou Qili looked at her and said nothing.

Xu Jiao shook her head, "I don't know for the time being. If I hurry, I can go back tonight. If it is delayed temporarily, I may not go back."

Only then did Zhou Qili say, "Pay attention to safety."

Qian Ai added: "If you are dating someone, remember to bring it to us in the future."

Xu Jiao smiled, nodded casually, and walked in the direction that went against the two of them. Zheng Zhiyu, who was in her shadow, seemed to have done nothing to make trouble just now, and reminded her in her ear. :

"The third one on the right, that hotel, room 808."

Xu Jiao glanced to the side, and there was no obvious emotional likes and dislikes. She walked to the hotel as she said. This is a large chain hotel. Although the facade on the first floor is not as wide as that of a five-star and six-star hotel , but the decoration is also good, the lady at the front desk in uniform asked her with a smile:

"Hello, do you have an appointment?"

Xu Jiao followed what Zheng Zhiyu taught herself: "I'm here to find a friend in Room 808."

The front desk was stunned for a second, then the whole person stopped for a while, and then compared to the side: "The elevator is on the left, you can go straight up."

"Ding dong."

Xu Jiao's figure was hidden by the closing of the elevator door.

In the staff lounge next to the front desk, a man came out, tying his tie as he walked, and the older sister, who was communicating with Xu Jiao, smiled and said, "A guest wants to check in? Remember the previous rules."

The girl in uniform smiled, but she turned her head when she was asked: "Check in..."

There was a little confusion and doubt in her eyes, as if she was doubting her memory, her voice paused for two seconds, she clicked the mouse, checked the check-in records on the computer, and said:

"It doesn't seem to live here, but to find friends."

"Which floor?"

"… forget."

"Forget it? Xiaoyan, you can't do this, have you forgotten what the boss said? You need to cheer up the night shift. If something like the previous one happens again, our store will be finished." The voice behind inexplicably became louder and louder. lower.

The girl at the front desk touched her forehead and gave an apologetic smile: "I know, Brother Li, I remember, the room on the eighth floor is not open to guests, the door over there is closed, and the one in the corridor Surveillance-monitoring is also off, and no one will go."

"Um."

upstairs.

Xu Jiao walked out of the elevator and saw a dark corridor in front of her, with almost no light.

Stepping out of the magnificent elevator, her shadow was mixed with the real darkness. Just as she stepped into the black corridor, a bright red cloth suddenly appeared beside her, and it was transformed into an illusion. Yes, and a pale, bloodless woman.

Xu Jiao took out her mobile phone, turned on the flashlight function, and walked forward casually: "Can you tell me the content of this part-time job by the way?"

Zheng Zhiyu held her other hand that didn't hold the phone, her icy fingertips sank into Xu Jiao's fingers, and her voice rang out in the darkness: "It's very simple."

"Help some things with strong resentment, fulfill their wishes, in exchange for rewards."

Xu Jiao gave a calm "um" and squinted at her: "If I collect money... they won't settle it with me?"

Zheng Zhiyu: "..."

She reluctantly spit out two words: "No."

After she finished speaking, she happened to walk with Xu Jiao to a room. The golden house number glowed dimly under the light of the flashlight, and it was 808.

Almost as soon as the two of them walked to the door, the door suddenly made the sound of a magnetic card swiping, squeaking, and then voluntarily opened it, and the lights also came on in an instant, illuminating the strong darkness in the corridor.

as if…

welcome them silently.

Xu Jiao stepped inside and looked at the layout and furnishings in the room. It was different from the terrifying scene in her imagination. This was an ordinary hotel layout. The snow-white bed, clean bathroom and room were different from those yin qi. Sensen's horror movies are not at all similar.

Before she could ask, Zheng Zhiyu seemed to know what she was thinking, and reminded her slowly behind her:

"You have to wait until the clock is turned before you can see it."

Xu Jiao turned off the light in her phone and asked calmly, "Do you mean to wait here until twelve o'clock?"

Zheng Zhiyu smiled and gestured towards the bathroom next to her, "You can take a shower first and sleep."

Xu Jiao casually put her phone at the porch next to her. She didn't look at the door that suddenly closed, but turned around to look at the woman in red behind her. Then, she slowly rolled up her sleeves:

"Just take a shower."

"Let's do the math first."
