The whole school was in chaos because of the people who jumped off the building. The students timidly screamed and turned their heads. The daring ones had already moved to the window to watch the excitement. The whole classroom was in chaos like a pot of porridge. The teacher wanted to make everyone quiet, but no one listened.
It stands to reason that when Lin Banxia saw a dead person for the first time, he should have been afraid, but his heart was completely calm, as if he had seen such a scene countless times. This familiar feeling made Lin Banxia a little puzzled. He looked away, trying to get himself in a group, so he also said that it was terrible, how could he suddenly jump off the building.
"Scary? You didn't even blink your eyes, why are you so scary?" Someone said beside Lin Banxia.
When Lin Banxia's secret was discovered, she was slightly startled. She turned her head and saw Li Su who was supposed to stand outside. He didn't know when he ran in from the door, and stood by the window to join in the fun. He didn't know if it was unintentional or intentional, and spit out such a sentence in Lin Banxia's ear.
Lin Banxia blinked, but didn't answer.
"It's not good-looking, it's not interesting." Li Su looked at it for a while, then turned around, he glanced at Lin Banxia, and thoughtfully said, "It's not as interesting as you."
Lin Banxia didn't really want to get involved with him, and continued to remain silent, pretending to be a wooden man.
Li Su didn't mind at all, and patted Lin Banxia's shoulder with a smile: "Do you know that person?"
Lin Banxia said, "Who?"
Li Su pursed his lips towards the window.
Lin Banxia was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the window again, only to realize that the beautiful boy with white skin just now was looking at their window, no, to be precise, he was looking at himself. As soon as he cast his gaze over, he met the boy's. Those eyes were pitch-black, I wonder if it was Lin Banxia's illusion, but he could see a trace of aggression in those cold eyes, so he lowered his head a little uncomfortable, and whispered: "I I do not know."
"You don't know?" Li Su said, "also... but I do."
Lin Banxia asked curiously, "Who is this?"
"Song Qingluo from the third class." Li Su said, "It's the first one from the top to the bottom when the monthly exam results are announced each time—"
When he said that, Lin Banxia remembered that Song Qingluo was a celebrity in their grade. From the time he entered school to now, his grades have always been the first, and he was the most talked about object by the girls in the class, just because of his love for the people around him. People don't care much, so they don't know.
"You really don't know each other?" Li Su didn't quite believe it. "Then why did he look like a dog saw a bone."
Lin Banxia was helpless: "What kind of metaphor are you trying to scold me or Song Qingluo?"
Li Su giggled: "Swear together, he can't hear it anyway."
Lin Banxia: "..."
The two were talking, and the sky turned cloudy in an instant. It was clearly still a clear sky just now. In less than a few words, it was covered with dark clouds, and it looked like it was going to rain soon.
"Ouch, this weather." Li Su complained, "it's not summer yet. It's cloudy and sunny like a child. It will rain if it rains. Have you brought an umbrella?"
Lin Banxia said, "No."
"Hey." Li Su smiled proudly, "I brought it."
He was about to show off a few more words, but was caught by the teacher who came by, grabbed it again, and sent it to the door of the classroom to stand again. Li Su didn't care. Before leaving, he smiled and asked Lin Banxia to wait after school...
When the teacher heard it, he scolded angrily: "Why, you still want to threaten your classmates?"
Li Su said aggrieved: "Teacher, I want to share the umbrella with my classmates and care for them."
The teacher didn't believe it, and said angrily: "If you don't stand up right now, I will show you what care is."
Li Su shrugged, how he looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. I was really sorry for his face that was even more beautiful than a girl.
When Lin Banxia turned around again, Song Qingluo downstairs had disappeared, and only the teacher who maintained the scene was left, and the smashed corpse. The rushing rain poured down like a huge hood, covering the whole world in it, and the blood on the corpse spread with the rain, staining the cement floor a dull red.
The teacher finally brought the scene under control, and beckoned the students to close the windows obediently, so that they were not allowed to watch the fun anymore.
Lin Banxia turned her head and looked at the test paper on the table, and found that one corner of it was soaked by the rain, and the handwriting was smudged into a strange shape.
After the quiz was over, it was a long night of self-study, during which the rain didn't stop, crackling on the glass and making a bang. There was a smell of soil in the air, which wasn't bad, but Lin Banxia felt a little uncomfortable. He rubbed his nose and glanced at the time. There were still twenty minutes before the end of the evening self-study.
At this moment, the day students in the get out of class are all out of class, and there are only a few resident students left in the empty classroom. The school's dormitory conditions are not good, and they will soon be entering their third year of senior high school. Students with better conditions at home will rent houses outside. Only students who really do not have the conditions will live on campus, so the number of students is not large. So five or six.
Lin Banxia noticed that Li Su, who should have left, didn't leave either. He was sitting in the corner and didn't know what he was doing. He was a little strange and didn't think much of it.
After ten o'clock, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the evening self-study for the resident students also ended.
Lin Banxia started to pack up her schoolbag and planned to leave. Who would have guessed that he was putting his head down and packing things, but Li Su suddenly came up to Lin Banxia and said, "Yo, we're leaving now?"
Lin Banxia raised her head and glanced at him, and hummed.
Li Su said, "Do you know the student who committed suicide by jumping off the building today?"
Lin Banxia said, "What?"
Li Su said, "You really don't know anything, the students are all passing it on." He took out his mobile phone and handed it to Lin Banxia, wanting him to read the content above.
Lin Banxia took a look and found that it was a screenshot of a chat log. Judging from the content of the conversation, it was nothing special. Probably because one person wanted to go to a place to see, and the other person kept discouraging him, and the two finally quarreled and broke up.
Lin Banxia watched for a while, understood something, and said, "It's the person who jumped off the building today... chat records?"
"Smart." Li Su praised.
"Where is he going to see?" Lin Banxia felt that the chat records were foggy, and he couldn't understand them well.
"Have you never heard of the school's legend?" Li Su said, "It is said that as long as you count the thirteen steps in the teaching building at twelve o'clock on a rainy day, you can meet people from another world." He deliberately Lowering his voice, he looked mysterious and unpredictable, "This legend has been passed down in the school for several years, don't you know everything?"
Lin Banxia shook her head, indicating that she really wasn't sure.
"Okay." Li Su spread his hands, "You only love to study."
Lin Banxia retorted seriously: "I don't just love studying, I just love scholarship."
Li Su stared, and was speechless at Lin Banxia's frank answer.
"Let's go, goodbye." Lin Banxia waved at him and left.
Li Su sat on the table, looked at Lin Banxia's back, muttered something, but did not stop Lin Banxia.
The rain that fell in the afternoon finally stopped now, and the air was filled with the smell of water. Lin Banxia actually didn't feel water, but subconsciously, for some reason, she didn't want it to rain, as if she felt that there was someone around her. I don't like it. But thinking about it carefully, he was surrounded by carefree male classmates, who would expressly express that he did not like rain
Lin Banxia left the teaching building with her schoolbag on her back and headed towards the dormitory. When passing by the teaching building, he saw the blockade drawn by the police during the day. In the center of the blockade is where the body fell. At this time, the broken corpse had been taken away, leaving only a spot of blood, but the blood had already been washed away by the heavy rain, as if everything that happened in the afternoon was just his illusion.
Lin Banxia was a little distracted and stopped, stood there and stared at the place for a while. As he was watching, someone behind him suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
"Classmate, you dropped something," said the person behind him.
Lin Banxia turned her head and saw that the man had a mobile phone in his hand. He didn't know who it was. It was covered in muddy water, but the screen was still on.
"This is not mine." Lin Banxia said honestly. He couldn't afford an expensive thing like a mobile phone, nor was it necessary to use it, because he really didn't have anyone to contact.
"But it just fell from you." The classmate was very determined, "I saw it with my own eyes."
Lin Banxia was a little stunned, and hesitantly said, "It's definitely not mine, is it someone else..." He looked around, but saw no one. After dark, the campus was empty, and the silence was a bit permeating. Outside the teaching building, it was just him and this student.
The student said, "Then I don't care, just throw it away if you don't want it." As he said that, he actually raised his arms, intending to throw the phone out of his hand. Lin Banxia was startled when she saw it, and quickly stopped her: "Don't throw it away. Although it's not mine, the person who lost it must be in a hurry. Otherwise, I'll hand it over to the Lost and Found Office for you?"
The student said, "Do whatever you want." He was very impatient and seemed to be in a hurry to leave. After putting the phone in Lin Banxia's hand, he turned around and left.
Lin Banxia originally wanted to have a few more words with him, but seeing his impatient attitude, she had to give up. He lowered his head, wiped the muddy water off the phone, put it in his pocket, and planned to hand it over to the lost and found place tomorrow. The phone looked quite expensive, and those who wanted to lose it should be in a hurry.
Lin Banxia just walked downstairs to the dormitory and was about to go upstairs when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was an unknown number, wondering if that person's friend was calling Yes, he pressed the answer button decisively, but no one spoke on the other end of the phone.
"Hello? Hello?" Lin Banxia fed several times, and finally heard a sound from the other end. It was a howling wind, as if someone was standing on a high place.
"Anyone?" Lin Banxia said.
No one answered, the whistling wind became loud, and after a while, there was a heavy loud noise, as if something fell heavily to the ground, like a watermelon, it smashed into pieces.
Lin Banxia was taken aback, and reflexively took the phone away. At first, he thought that the person on the opposite side threw the phone downstairs, but he soon realized that the call had not been disconnected, that is, Meaning, the phone on the other end of the phone is intact.
"Get out of here." A voice rang on the other end of the phone, and then the phone screen went dark.
Lin Banxia stared at the phone in a trance and didn't speak for a long time. The phone call was so inexplicable that most people might take it as a prank, but Lin Banxia faintly smelled an ominous aura.
leave here? Why leave? Lin Banxia thought to herself. He pressed the screen of his mobile phone again, but he couldn't turn it on. It seemed that the mobile phone was out of power. In desperation, he had to go back to the dormitory first.
In the dormitory, other students were already reviewing under the lamp.
Lin Banxia also turned on his desk lamp, but for some reason, he, who was always very efficient in his studies, was distracted today, and he couldn't read the book. Violation.
But no matter how I think about it, I can't think of it.
Lin Banxia hadn't slept much that night. He seemed to have had a lot of dreams, but when he woke up, he couldn't remember anything.
It was six o'clock in the morning when the alarm clock went off. Lin Banxia got up in a hurry, simply ate breakfast and went to the classroom. He went to the classroom and put away his schoolbag, then went to the student management office on the fifth floor, wanting to hand over the phone quickly, but when he got to the door, he remembered that the teacher from the student management office came over at eight o'clock. Looking at the closed door, he was suddenly a little dazed. When he walked back with his head lowered, he bumped into someone. Lin Banxia quickly apologized, and when he looked up, he realized that he had bumped into someone who was mentioned by Li Su yesterday. Song Qingluo. He looked at himself expressionlessly, his voice was very soft: "Be careful."
Lin Banxia said, "Hold... I'm sorry." He always felt that Song Qingluo looked at him a little strangely, and he looked away uncomfortably, and turned to leave.
But as soon as he took a step, someone grabbed his arm. The man who grabbed him was very energetic, and Lin Banxia even let out a hiss involuntarily. He turned his head to look, and found that Song Qingluo had grabbed him, and when he heard his hiss, his strength suddenly loosened.
Song Qingluo said, "Why are you here?"
Lin Banxia said, "I have something I want to hand over, but I didn't expect to open the door early."
"Oh." Song Qingluo responded, not intending to let go, still shackled Lin Banxia, "What?"
"A cell phone." Lin Banxia took out the cell phone from his pocket, "A classmate picked it up under the teaching building when school was over yesterday."
Song Qingluo saw the phone in Lin Banxia's hand. It was a beautiful flip phone. Lin Banxia held it intact. His eyes drooped slightly, and he said, "Oh."
Lin Banxia didn't know what the word oh meant, and was a little stunned. Unexpectedly, Song Qingluo grabbed his hand and took him two steps forward, then took out a key from his pocket and opened the door of the student management office. Seeing Lin Banxia was very surprised, he explained lightly: "Sometimes I will come to help the teacher."
Lin Banxia cast an admiring look at him.
"Which teaching building did you pick it up?" Song Qingluo asked.
"It's the building where the accident happened yesterday." Lin Banxia put the phone on the table, hesitating a little, wondering if she should tell the story of the phone call she received later.
Song Qingluo picked up the phone and looked at it. The screen of the phone, which had obviously been unable to be turned on yesterday, actually turned on again. Song Qingluo flipped through the phone and seemed to want to find the owner's clue from it, but only glanced at it. , the brows are wrinkled, and the expression is a bit wrong.
Lin Banxia thought that the phone was broken, and quickly explained: "I didn't touch it, so I just answered a call."
Song Qingluo said, "It's not your problem."
"What's the matter?" Lin Banxia was inexplicably frightened. The phone looked very expensive. If it was really broken, how could he pay for it.
"This phone..." Song Qingluo said, "it shouldn't be here."
Lin Banxia was at a loss.
"It belongs to Qin Xu." Song Qingluo said, "Do you know Qin Xu?"
It was an unfamiliar name, and Lin Banxia naturally didn't know it, so he shook his head.
"It's the person who jumped off the building yesterday." Song Qingluo closed the phone, "His name is Qin Xu, this is his phone."
Lin Banxia was dumbfounded: "He... he didn't bring his mobile phone when he jumped off the building?"
Song Qingluo glanced at him: "It should have been brought."
Lin Banxia said, "Then, what's going on?"
Song Qingluo thought for a while: "Who gave you the phone? Do you remember what that person looked like?"
Lin Banxia carefully recalled the person who gave him the phone yesterday. It was too dark at the time, and he didn't care. Now that he thinks about it, the person is a bit strange. After giving him the phone, the person disappeared. Lin Banxia was a little restless. I always feel like I've encountered something I shouldn't have encountered.
After Song Qingluo listened to his description, she was silent for a while. Just when Lin Banxia felt that she was about to lose her temper and wanted to ask questions, he lowered his head, rummaged through the phone for a moment, and then handed a photo to him. In front of Lin Banxia, he said, "Is it this person?"
Lin Banxia glanced and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, it's him."
Song Qingluo: "..."
"What's wrong?" Lin Banxia was frightened by his expression, "Why do you have this expression?"
Song Qingluo said, "This is Qin Xu."
Lin Banxia: "..."
The long silence spread between the two, Lin Banxia's mouth was dry, and she didn't know what to say for a while. He remembered the phone call he received later. It seemed that someone had fallen from a height. Thinking about it now, that person should be... Qin Xu. The more I thought about it, the more incredible it became. Lin Banxia was a little panicked when it was the first time she encountered such a thing beyond her cognition.
Song Qingluo seemed very calm, he said, "Go back first, you have to start early self-study."
Lin Banxia saw that she had been chatting with Song Qingluo for half an hour, so she got up and said goodbye.
"Lin Banxia." Song Qingluo said, "If you have anything, you can come to me directly."
Lin Banxia kept saying yes, her heart was full of gratitude to Song Qingluo, she felt that although this person had an indifferent expression and a detached temperament, he was very considerate. A misunderstanding occurred. However, when he arrived at the class happily, he suddenly remembered something, and froze in his seat - when he was talking with Song Qingluo just now, he didn't introduce his name from beginning to end, so how could Song Qingluo be? Know what his name is? Directly calling out the name Lin Banxia
Lin Banxia suddenly felt that Song Qingluo seemed... really strange.
Because of the phone, Lin Banxia was a little distracted this morning.
After finally getting to the lunch break, the classmates would lie on their desks to rest for half an hour, and Lin Banxia was no exception, but as soon as he got down, he was harassed by Li Su. Li Su has been very interested in him recently, as if he had found some interesting toys, he sat next to him and told him a few ghost stories. Lin Banxia listened without any reaction, thinking that the story Li Su told was not as scary as the one he encountered himself.
Li Su didn't get the reaction he wanted, so he looked at Lin Banxia harshly, and said in disgust, "Lin Banxia, can't you give me a reaction?"
Lin Banxia said helplessly, "Can you let me go?"
"No." Li Su said, "Everyone in this classroom is so boring, you are the only one who is more interesting."
Lin Banxia said: "You tell me what's interesting about me, can I change it?"
Li Su couldn't help laughing. This Lin Banxia looks thin and small, wearing a wide school uniform that doesn't fit, and has a handsome face that is harmless to humans and animals. No matter how you look at it, she is always the kind of obedient student who is easy to bully. The reason is that his hair color is much lighter than ordinary people, and the color is more brown, which makes the female classmates who can't dye their hair very envious. Lin Banxia doesn't know, but Li Su knows very well that his classmate also has many admirers in the class. It's a pity that Lin Banxia doesn't know anything about it, and only knows how to study every day.
Li Su was talking beside him, but Lin Banxia remembered about Song Qingluo. He thought that Li Su might know more about Song Qingluo, so he asked a few questions about Song Qingluo tentatively.
Li Su seemed to be a little afraid of Song Qingluo, saying that this person was very troublesome, and told Lin Banxia not to mess with him.
Lin Banxia asked curiously, "Why is he in trouble?"
Li Suyue said, "Don't look at him as a good student. He's worse than me. If you offend him, it's not something that can be solved with a fight."
Lin Banxia thought that you might have reminded you too late. Although she didn't know what was going on, Song Qingluo seemed to have noticed him and even knew his name.
Li Su was talking when his phone vibrated suddenly. He opened his eyes and saw that it was a message. After reading it, he didn't bother Lin Banxia anymore, got up and said that he had left beforehand.
Lin Banxia wanted him to leave, and watched Li Su walking towards the door. A tall figure stood beside the door outside, who seemed to be Li Su's friend, a foreigner who came from abroad to study.
When Lin Banxia saw him go out, she withdrew her gaze.
The afternoon class was long and torturous. Lin Banxia didn't eat much at noon, so she was already hungry. So after class, he went to the cafeteria to have something to eat, and then went back to the classroom, but as soon as he came back, he felt that when he walked into the classroom, the expressions of the classmates were a little wrong. , whispered: "Someone is looking for you."
Lin Banxia said, "Who?"
The same table said: "That Song Qingluo - when did you know him?"
Lin Banxia said dryly, "This morning."
The same table said, "Are you kidding me? This morning? I see that he is very familiar with you. I asked you to call him back when you come back."
Lin Banxia said, "I don't have a cell phone."
The tablemate said enthusiastically, "It's okay, it's okay, use mine!" He handed the mobile phone to Lin Banxia's hand, and also brought him a note with the phone number written on it.
Lin Banxia hesitated for a moment, but still called Song Qingluo back. Song Qingluo answered quickly and asked herself to go to the fifth floor to find him. Lin Banxia was a little hesitant at first, but Song Qingluo's tone was firm, as if there was something important, and he didn't give him too much time to question, so he hung up the phone.
In desperation, Lin Banxia had no choice but to return the phone to the tablemate, planning to visit him on the fifth floor. As soon as the phone was handed out, Lin Banxia suddenly asked, "Do I often use your phone?"
"No." The same table said, "Why are you using my phone?"
Lin Banxia said, "Yes, why am I using your phone?"
The tablemate looked puzzled, not understanding what Lin Banxia was talking about. Lin Banxia did not explain, and stood up directly from his seat. At this time, he finally found out what the sense of disobedience had been bothering him yesterday.
Because I didn't buy it myself, and I almost never use mobile phones to communicate with others, this thing should have been unfamiliar to Lin Banxia. He doesn't have any way of using it, and he has no memory of using the phone. But whether it was getting the phone to answer the phone yesterday or calling Song Qingluo today, Lin Banxia seemed to be unfamiliar with this small object—it was as if she had used it countless times.
Lin Banxia was very silent along the way, and there were many conjectures in his mind, but none of them could explain what happened to him.
Before Lin Banxia could come up with an answer, he had already reached the fifth floor. The fifth floor was not the teaching floor, most of which were the teachers' offices. Lin Banxia walked forward for a while and saw Song Qingluo at the end of the balcony. .
Song Qingluo was leaning on the edge of the balcony, as if he was playing with his mobile phone with his head down. He was also wearing a school uniform, but he insisted on wearing it differently. Lin Banxia lowered his head and saw his ill-fitting sneakers and empty trouser legs. He tugged at the corner of his clothes, trying to drive away the low self-esteem that had risen in his heart.
After Song Qingluo heard Lin Banxia's footsteps, she put away her phone and looked at him. Lin Banxia was much shorter than him, looking thin and small, obviously already in high school, and still like a junior high school child. Song Qingluo watched him walk in front of her, raised her head cautiously, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Obviously it was just a normal communication, but Song Qingluo inexplicably gave birth to the illusion that he was bullying this child. He pursed his lips into an unpleasant arc, and said lightly, "Can't I find you if I'm okay?"
Lin Banxia: "No, no, I still have to study at night."
Song Qingluo said, "You encountered such a thing yesterday, so you have nothing to say, and you are not curious at all?"
Lin Banxia said, "There seems to be something wrong, but what can we do?"
Song Qingluo leaned against Lin Banxia's face, his lips almost touching the tip of Lin Banxia's ear, his voice was as soft as a gust of wind, and the scorching breath made Lin Banxia shrink his neck, Song Qingluo said, "I After seeing the call record, you finally answered a call, right? You are not curious, who is calling you? "
Lin Banxia said, "Yes... Who is it?"
Song Qingluo said, "That's Qin Xu's phone number."
Lin Banxia was stunned.
"So, why did he call you? Or, what did he say to you during this call?" Song Qingluo lowered her eyes and saw Lin Banxia's auricle, with a cute layer floating on it. The blush, because of nervousness or itching, trembled slightly from time to time, which looked extraordinarily delicious. But he knew that now was not the right time, so he suppressed some inexplicable impulse, but the corner of his mouth curled slightly to show his dissatisfaction.
Lin Banxia was completely unaware of the change in Song Qingluo's expression. He felt that he was too close to Song Qingluo and wanted to take a step back, but there was a wall behind him. He answered Song Qingluo's question with difficulty: "He , he said four words to me."
Song Qingluo said, "What?"
"Get out of here." Lin Banxia said.
Song Qingluo said, "Just this? Nothing else?"
"No." Lin Banxia said, "I don't know what it means, and when he called me, he should have been... dead."
A dead man, why can he still make this call
What do you mean by leaving here
Both fell silent at the same time.
The author has something to say:
Song Qingluo: At which stage of your life do you want me to appear most
Lin Banxia: When you buy a house and make a down payment
Song Qingluo:…
