C12 (1/2)
Xu Bing comforted me from the side. Suddenly, I remembered the phone call from earlier, why did the police station call me? Could it be because of Su Lin?
”Can you accompany me to the police station?”
”Alright.”
I took my stuff and walked out. Looking at the familiar scene of 404, the big doll on top of Su Lin's bed, I slammed the door.
At that time, there was a sudden sense of urgency. Usually, universities only used public bathrooms, and female dormitories were better, but there were usually only one for each of them. The bathroom was less than two meters away from Room 404, and Xu Bing waited at the door.
I hurried in, opened the door, and squatted inside. I happened to see the painting on the bathroom door.
That was something that Lao Si had drawn, because that was exactly what she had learnt. When she was in her first year of university, Su Lin had said that in the future, she would have to find a room of her own to draw what she wanted.
Looking at the painting, I couldn't hold it in any longer. I covered my mouth with my hand and let the tears flow from the corners of my eyes.
Bam, bam, bam. A strange sound came out, and I raised my head and wiped my eyes with my hand.
When he was in his first year of university, he remembered hearing the senior mysteriously talk about this girl's dormitory. Because the roof of the dormitory was green, many people called it a brothel.
At that time, I really didn't like this form of address, especially after someone added the word ”Ghost” in front of the brothel. My four years of university, I actually slept in the brothel for four years.
They had heard that someone had died here before. A senior sister in her senior year of university had hanged herself from this very women's restroom. That was why no one dared to come out alone at night.
Maybe it's because the Yin Qi s in the female restroom are too heavy, normal ghost movies would choose to meet a ghost in this kind of place. When I look in my pocket, there isn't any paper.
A lot of people should have experienced something similar, and it felt really awkward. I looked through it again, but I still didn't find anything.
”Xu Bing, Xu Bing.” I could only shout out from the inside, but Xu Bing did not reply after that.
”Where did he go?”
I was in a hurry because I was about to graduate. At that moment, there were very few people in the dorm, and at that time, I was in a big account, so I couldn't do anything about it. At this moment, a hand reached out from under the partition.
”Thank you.”
I took the paper and lifted my pants after I was done. Then, I used my foot to stomp down hard on the back of the pants. As I watched the yellow stuff spin and disappear, I immediately felt a lot more relaxed.
I was particularly touched at the time, saying that it was touching to give charcoal in the snow, and that it was equally warm to give paper in the toilet. To my surprise, there was no sound from the squat next door.
I pushed the door open and walked out. The door that I had just handed over was actually open. I looked inside and saw that there was no one there.
The first time I saw Xu Bing, she was standing at the door with her earphones stuffed in her ears. It was no wonder that she didn't hear me call her just now.
”Xu Bing, did you see that person go to that dorm room?” I walked out thinking about what had happened.
”People? ”Where did this person come from?” Xu Bing raised her head and casually took off her headphones.
”Yes, I even borrowed some paper for me to use.”
”Impossible, I've been standing here. If someone were to leave, I'll definitely be able to see them.” Xu Bing looked at me, and I looked at Xu Bing as well. Almost at the same time, I turned and ran back.
”Xia Mo, where are you going?”
