Chapter 31 031. The smile won’t disappear
The first time she read this text, Gu Yingying, a college student holding a saxophone in her arms, suddenly felt a chill coming from her back.

wind?
She turned her head hastily, but behind her was only the unpruned nursery, the messy branches were motionless, and there was no evening wind from behind.

Frowning slightly, Gu Yingying was about to turn her head and continue looking at her phone.

But just as her eyes swept across the bushes, Gu Yingying suddenly caught a glimpse of a pale face looking at her in the deep bushes.

hum-

Gu Yingying's heart stopped beating for half a beat, she immediately rubbed her eyes, and found that it was just an illusion made up of mottled tree shadows.

Turning her head, Gu Yingying found Qiao Mu staring at her seriously, a little embarrassed.

She cleared her throat pretentiously and put away her phone.

"It's very late, I'm going back to the dormitory first, and I'll watch it at night."

Gu Yingying didn't look into Qiao Mu's eyes.

"Yeah, no problem, you can watch it at night."

Qiao Mu was not in a hurry.

What should come will always come.

I can't brush it during the day, but I'm shocked at night.

Gu Yingying packed up her musical instrument, carried the suitcase and left the riverside, walked onto the subway, and took two stops to Jiangcheng University, where she studied.

As usual, she went to the cafeteria to eat, wash up, and lie down on the bed. Only then did Gu Yingying remember the Shudong.com account she had followed in the evening.

Opening the Shudong.com app, she found that the account had gained a few more fans, and she wondered if it was Qiao Mu who was dragging people by the river to press their heads for attention.

Gu Yingying clicked on the long picture and continued to read.

The story is very simple, that is, "I" is a psychiatrist. One day I received a consultation. The other person said that he had such and such problems and wanted a doctor to come to the clinic for treatment. Only then did "I" find out that the patient worked in a funeral parlor.

To be honest, the text, in Gu Yingying's opinion, is a passing level in Chinese, and most of the descriptions are simple and straightforward.

But as she watched, Gu Yingying felt a little cold around her, and couldn't help but pull the quilt closer to her body.

Moreover, although the writing is flimsy, the inexplicable sense of substitution is very high. When the people in the story talk to each other, Gu Yingying even feels that the words are ringing in her ears.

"Doctor, I see you."

The moment she saw this line of text, Gu Yingying's phone vibrated, and WeChat notified her that she had received a picture.

"Fuck!"

Gu Yingying shuddered and was so frightened that the phone almost hit her face.

She immediately checked WeChat and found that it was a picture of a sand sculpture sent by a group of friends.

Gu Yingying couldn't help but laugh.

She set WeChat to do not disturb mode and continued reading the story.

She didn't know what kind of magic this short article had. Gu Yingying just felt like she was in a lonely funeral parlor with strange rules. There was only a strange security guard staying with her, and there seemed to be something around her. nothing.

Gu Yingying soon saw a power outage, and the security guard went out to check, only her own paragraph was left in the room.

At this time, the protagonist of the short article had already noticed that there was the sound of metal dragging on the ground outside the door, and then——

thump—

There was a knock on the door, and Gu Yingying suddenly realized that the sound was not her fantasy, but something real.

thump—

A dull knock came from the direction of the dormitory door, but the four people in the dormitory were already lying on the bed, so who knocked at the time when the lights were about to turn off?

Gu Yingying, who was closest to the door, took a breath, because sleeping on the upper bunk, she seemed to see a man in security uniform standing at the door through the window on the door.

How could a man come in this girls' dormitory?

Suddenly, Gu Yingying felt her heart beating wildly, and her eardrums buzzed, she got goosebumps and dared not move.

"Who?"

It wasn't until the roommate sleeping across from him asked, that the person outside the door spoke.

"Hey, have you finished your homework of counting points? Let me have a look."

It turned out to be a classmate in the next dormitory.

Gu Yingying took a closer look again, there was indeed a girl outside the door, maybe she was dazzled before.

"Scare yourself"

She thinks so of herself.

When the girl left with her homework, the door of the dormitory had just closed.

pat-

The whole building suddenly went dark, and at the same time there was a burst of boos from the campus.

It's eleven o'clock, lights out.

Gu Yingying's eyes adjusted to the darkness for a while, she didn't read the article, but glanced at the dormitory.

The other three people were all playing with their mobile phones, and the fluorescent light hit their faces, making them look extremely pale.

Gu Yingying swallowed, curled up, and continued reading.

Before she knew it, she seemed to have really come to the funeral parlor. She was chased by the hideous and frantic security guards. There was a knock on the door of the freezer from the morgue, which made Gu Yingying's blood turn cold, and her breathing It also became urgent.

Countless hands stretched out from the wall and grabbed Gu Yingying's shoulders, arms, thighs, and ankles.

She felt a chill in her ankle, subconsciously moved her foot, and found that there was really a hand grabbing her foot.

"Scratch!!!"

Gu Yingying couldn't help swearing, her whole body trembled like an electric shock, she jumped up and leaned back desperately until her back was pressed against the cold wall.

Her muscles spasmed, her mouth opened and closed, but she could no longer make any sound. People who are extremely frightened and stimulated cannot scream at all.

Gu Yingying's gaze moved, and in the dark dormitory, she could only see with the dim light that the roommate in the next bed was sitting on the head of the bed dumbfounded, with her hands still resting on Gu Yingying's quilt.

"Are you okay? I'm just teasing you. I didn't mean to do it."

The roommate obviously didn't expect Gu Yingying to react so strongly, and was stunned for a moment.

Gu Yingying was still in shock. Seeing the other three people get up and look at her, the little girl's emotions collapsed immediately. Her nose was sore, tears welled up immediately, her shoulders twitched, and she couldn't stop.

The roommate in the next bed originally wanted to comfort her, but as soon as she got close, Gu Yingying immediately trembled, as if it was not her classmates, but vicious and cruel security guards, those withered and screaming corpses.

"No, don't come here!"

Wails echoed in the dormitory.

It wasn't until after twelve o'clock that the dormitory building finally quieted down. Gu Yingying finally calmed down a bit. She had already used up a whole pack of tissues.

In fact, she is much better if she can cry. Emotions always need to be vented. If they cannot be released, they will be held in their hearts, which will lead to problems.

Lying back on the bed, Gu Yingying looked at her phone.

There is one last bit of ending to that story that I haven't read yet.

She was curious.

Scared again.

In this dark dormitory, everyone was lying down, ready to sleep, no one chatted, only the slight sound of breathing.

After swallowing, curiosity still made Gu Yingying look at the screen of her phone.

She saw that in the ending, "I" seemed to have solved the problem and found the root cause of the funeral home's problems. The sun rose and everything was full of hope.

With a sigh of relief, Gu Yingying found that there was one last tail.

Then she read that the random message sent by "I" caused a reminder to ring out in the crowd.

buzz-

Gu Yingying's cell phone vibrated at the same time.

She didn't even have time to confirm what application prompt it was, before she fainted and her consciousness sank into the deep sea.

In the dream, Gu Yingying seemed to have experienced a lot. She saw the deserted and desolate funeral home, the burning crematorium, the cold and stiff corpse, and the man chasing her in the corridor with a crowbar. Crazy security guard.

She opened her eyes suddenly, and found that it was only one o'clock in the middle of the night, and she had only slept for an hour.

Tossing and turning because of the nightmare, Gu Yingying turned on her phone and saw that there were still people chatting in the group of high school classmates, so she sent a sentence.

[Gu Yingying]: After reading a short horror story, I couldn't fall asleep.

[Zhao Yuanyang]: What a short story? Is it really so scary?
One of the students who was chatting casually asked.

Seeing this sentence, Gu Yingying suddenly felt a different emotion in her heart.

Yes, why am I the only one scared to cry? Why am I the only one who has lost sleep because of this story?
She thought about it, and suddenly, the corner of her mouth opened an arc, and then forwarded the tree hole to the group.

[Gu Yingying]: This is it.
