After I came out of Chen Xu's dormitory, I didn't feel too well. I kept feeling dizzy. I originally wanted to find Ye Xiang and tell her that Chen Xu was fine, but I really couldn't stand this feeling. I thought I'd go back and rest first. I'll tell her later. It doesn't matter.
She didn't know what was wrong with the pillow, but she had never had such a good sleep before. She fell asleep in a short while.
In her dream, a voice rang in her ears," Come, follow me…"
I didn't know what was wrong, but it was as if everything was out of my control. I just followed the source of the sound.
By the time I reacted, I was already standing in Room 404. He looked around, but there was no one around.
I looked up at the clock on the wall. Ye Xiang and the others were still on duty at this time. No wonder there was no one.
A figure had her back facing me. She sat by the window sill and hummed a song. I was too familiar with this melody. It was my favorite song when I was young.
I was stunned for a long time before I slowly asked," Who are you?”
She chuckled and turned around." I'm you."”
I looked at her in surprise and wondered if my father had an illegitimate child outside.
"How can you be me?"
" You've had a hard time these past few days…" She slowly walked towards me, still talking." But it's okay, I'm back now." You will be free…"
Before I could react, she appeared in front of me in an instant and touched my face with her cold fingers. She continued to say," Because of this pair of eyes…Because of this hateful world, you've suffered so much…"
I felt a little uncomfortable and said in a slightly evasive tone," I don't know what you're talking about…"
She looked up at the sky and laughed. Then, she gave me a gentle smile and said," It's okay. You still have me. Come…come…I'll take you to the Elysian World…"
I don't know why, but when I met her eyes, all the grievances I've felt over the years surged into my heart." Come…come here…" She finally took a step forward…
The window was blown open by a gust of wind. My eyes fell on the blue sky outside the window. She said in my ear," Get out of here, and everything will be clear…"
My body was close to the window. Just as I was about to lose my balance, I was grabbed tightly by a pair of hands.
A ball of blue light in his palm flew towards the woman. She was knocked to the ground with a painful cry. His fingertips touched the clock. Time stopped at this moment. Everything was frozen here except for him and me...
Thirty years ago.
Dormitory 404 was silent. There was a table lamp beside the neat desk. The warm light made the entire room look gentle.
In front of the mirror stood a graceful girl. She was wearing a long red dress and had light makeup on her face. Her nails were painted bright red. The girl picked up a pen and looked at it under the sun. A touching smile bloomed on her face. Her shallow pear nest made her even more adorable.
It was a particularly lively morning in the hospital. The bulletin board was surrounded by people. There were pieces of paper filled with words pasted on it. Everyone was pointing at the things on the bulletin board.
The teacher in charge of taking care of the interns was sternly lecturing the girl in the red dress.
She lowered her head and didn't say a word. She held the pen tightly in her hand.
It was dusk. When the gentle afterglow fell on the window, she stood on the window in Room 404 and jumped, ending her young life.
" Little White…Little White…" Ji Qianfan called my name over and over again.
Finally, I got a little impatient. I slapped his face and said in annoyance," Don't make a fuss. Can't you see that I'm sleeping?"”
When I came back to my senses and saw the person in front of me, I really wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"I'm sorry…I didn't know…"
Before I could finish, he hugged me tightly." Xiao Bai, it's good that you're alright…"
I broke free from Ji Qianfan's embrace and looked at him in confusion. After a while, I said," I think I saw myself just now..."
Ji Qianfan said coldly," Do you know why everyone in this room committed suicide? This was because ghosts would pry into the shadows in people's hearts. Everyone had a fragile side in their hearts. If this weakness was magnified, no one would want to live!”
I looked up, tears welling up in my eyes. I felt wronged." Why am I so unlucky…"
He patted my head and his tone was much gentler than before." Xiao Bai, you still have me. As long as I'm by your side, no one will dare to hurt you.”
My heart skipped a beat. I looked at him and asked," When were you by my side? I've been interning here for so long, but you haven't come to see me.”
Ji Qianfan looked a little aggrieved as he said," If it weren't for me, how come you didn't get caught slacking off every time you were on duty? There were a few times when you were in danger, but I helped you settle them.”
I looked at him gratefully and asked," Then, how do you think this matter should be resolved?"”
Ji Qianfan helped me up and said," This isn't Master Ye's territory. He can't do anything about it, but I'll arrange for someone to come and take care of her." You can go back now."
I nodded and walked towards the door, but my footsteps suddenly stopped. I was afraid that something would happen to him, but just as I turned around to give him a few words of advice, there was no one there.
"Seriously, he's walking so fast. I don't know if he's running away or looking for someone.”
Back in the dormitory, he was unable to sit still. Could Ji Qianfan really solve it? No, I can't rely on him every time. I have to help him do something.
He remembered Master Ye saying that if ghosts didn't want to leave, there would always be a reason for them to stay. In other words, if I can find the reason…
"Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, what are you laughing at?”
I looked up at Jiaying and asked,"”
"What do you think?"
I waved my hand and said," I'm not thinking about what will happen after I go back."”
"I think you're thinking about men.”
I grabbed a pillow and asked threateningly," What did you say?”
Jiaying didn't seem to be afraid. Instead, she raised her voice and said," I'm asking you if you're thinking about men!”
I rushed up to fight with her, but it didn't take long for me to surrender because I couldn't take it anymore…
I lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling." Jiaying, can you do me a favor?"”
"What is it?"
I told her everything that Ye Xiang had said, including what I had experienced before, except for the part about Ji Qianfan.
"Please, she's a ghost, and we're humans. How can we win?”
"Jiaying, I saw a fountain pen in her memory, and I saw the exact same one on the dean's desk.”
Jiaying stared at me with her eyes wide open." You're not telling me that the dean has something to do with this, are you?”
I nodded affirmatively. Jiaying slapped me on the head." Are you stupid? The director of the investigation department. Aren't you afraid that he will write nonsense on your internship summary?"”
My eyes fell on the floor and I was a little stunned.
In the office, the director was smoking as he pondered over something. His brows were tightly knitted as his gaze fell on the pen on the table.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Please come in." He put out the cigarette and put the pen on the table into the drawer.
Jiaying and I walked through the door. He looked up at us and asked," What's the matter?”
Jiaying tugged at my sleeve, trying to dissuade me from doing this.
I took a deep breath and walked in front of him. I went straight to the point and asked," Director, may I ask what is your relationship with that female ghost?”
His expression was obviously flustered. He answered me with a slurred voice," I don't know what you're talking about. I'm telling you, don't spread any more rumors. Otherwise, I'll inform your school and make sure you don't have any more education.”
The more he acted like this, the clearer the answer in my heart became. I met his gaze and said with some confidence," In that case, you admit it, right?”
"Get out!"
He slammed the table angrily and shouted at me.
"Director, I think you have to give me a clear answer. Otherwise, the number of people who will die will be far more than this.”
As soon as I said this, his anger calmed down a little.
After a long time, he opened his mouth and slowly told the truth.
When he met Qingsuo, he was just an ordinary doctor in this hospital. However, he was talented and promising at a young age. Many seniors said that he was the most likely person to become the dean.
Qingsuo had come to the hospital for an internship, and he had been guiding her.
Many times, he would meet her in the corridor, and she would always smile and nod at him. Every day, as if they had agreed, they would always give each other a silent greeting. As time passed, they became familiar with each other and talked about everything. Finally, on her birthday, he gave her a dress. The color was red, which she especially liked.
That day, she invited him to the rooftop, where they often met. They always enjoyed the sunset there and enjoyed each other's company during the rare time. And this pen was her gift to him, as if they had exchanged a token. They were sure that they were in love, but none of them dared to break the ice because he was her mentor and she was his student.
