In the dark ward with no lights on, only half of the curtains that were closed on the side shed a little light into the room. For some reason, such a ward always makes people feel a little gloomy. When Tang Yuanyuan walked in, he felt a unique sense of coolness. Breathing, after bypassing the screen, she saw the girl she had rescued. The girl seemed to have woken up a long time ago, with a bleeding bandage wrapped around her neck. She was sitting in a daze on the hospital bed wearing a still-stained junior high school uniform.
Seeing someone approaching, her seemingly dull eyes suddenly raised and fell on Tang Yuanyuan, her eyes flickering slightly.
"Senior sister...Are you okay...?"
Tang Yuanyuan stopped about two meters away from her hospital bed and greeted her. With a bright smile on his face, he looked completely unaware that he was also a patient.
Before coming here, Tang Yuanyuan had actually inquired about this girl from the doctor in the infirmary while he was treating his hand injury, so he knew that the other party was a junior high school girl one year younger than him, and he also knew She knew the approximate extent of her injuries, but this time she came to the ward because she had other questions to ask.
It is very rare for evil spirits to actively attack living people in schools. In addition, the dirty things lurking around the campus seem to be particularly active recently. Tang Yuanyuan needs to know the reason for such an incident. The girl in front of him will be... That female ghost should be the target of the attack for no reason, so she will be the best source of information at this moment.
Although the girl sitting on the hospital bed had been awake for a while, she did not seem to have fully recovered from the shock of being attacked. Her expression seemed to be a little dazed and dull, so she was not interested in Tang Yuanyuan. The arrival and greeting took some time to respond.
It wasn't until the girl looked at Tang Yuanyuan's smiling face in a daze for a long time that she moved her lips lightly and uttered a few low and dry syllables with some effort.
"It's you…"
The girl seemed to recall something, looked into Tang Yuanyuan's eyes and said softly: "You saved me... I remember you... your name seems to be Tang Yuanyuan..."
"You recognize me?"
Tang Yuanyuan was a little surprised when she heard this. She was not surprised that the girl could remember her face, but to her surprise, the other party could actually call her name. She had no memory of meeting this girl, but the girl's words seemed like After knowing her for a long time, she couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Even if the other party had an impression of Tang Yuanyuan's name because he had heard those ancient "supernatural" rumors about her, it would be impossible for him to match her face.
Seemingly sensing Tang Yuanyuan's doubts, the girl coughed twice, and then spoke again:
"I recognize you because you are the winner of the annual award from the art club. Your name is also in the school bulletin every year. I can often see your photo in the commendation column or the invention column."
Tang Yuanyuan nodded as he listened, with a somewhat relieved expression on the surface. There seemed to be no logical problem with the girl's answer, but for some reason she still felt a little weird in her heart.
The girl took in Tang Yuanyuan's reaction, paused for a moment, and then continued: "Of course, in addition, I have also heard rumors that you can see ghosts. In the rumored stories, they all said that you can attract ghosts. Brings bad luck."
Tang Yuanyuan's brows jumped when he heard this, and the smile on his face faded a bit. He really didn't expect that her rumors would spread beyond the grade level. If possible, she didn't want to make her name famous throughout the campus in this way. Tang Yuanyuan's The name is almost becoming a weird thing on campus.
"Then do you believe those rumors?" Tang Yuanyuan sighed helplessly, looking at the girl with a somewhat bitter smile, and the girl looked at her and blinked.
"I didn't believe it before," the girl said, "but now I do."
This prelude seemed very familiar, and Tang Yuanyuan felt a chill in his heart when he heard it. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that rumors could be so powerful.
I originally thought that this conversation would end on bad terms, but I didn't expect that the girl's conversation would suddenly change again in the next second.
"I believe you can see ghosts, but I don't think you can bring bad luck." The girl turned her head and looked at Tang Yuanyuan, paused and then said, "You saved me."
Then the girl raised the corners of her lips and showed a vague smile:
"Thank you. If you hadn't taken action at that time, I might have died at the hands of that female ghost."
Tang Yuanyuan's heart moved when she heard that thank you. She rarely heard such words from others, and it was rare for her to feel that this person was saved in vain.
However, apart from the brief emotion that stirred in her heart, she never missed the details of the girl in front of her. Not only did the girl in front of her clearly know that the person who attacked her was a female ghost and not something else, she also had no special reaction to it.
If an ordinary person suddenly encountered such a thing, even if she recalled it, she would have the emotion of fear, but she could not see such emotions from the girl in front of her. It seemed that the girl in front of her had experienced those things many times. Habit.
"There's no need to say thank you. I'm just doing something I won't regret, but I would like to ask..." Tang Yuanyuan followed her words and asked, "What's your name? And why are you so sure?" That guy must be a ghost?"
She wanted to know why the female ghost was targeting the girl in front of her. Except for a few extremely vicious special ghosts who hunted indiscriminately, most ghosts did not attack humans for no reason. Most of them were caused by someone doing something during their lifetime. Their hatred, but the girl in front of them looked perverse and did not look like someone who would provoke evil spirits.
"...I knew she was a ghost because she appeared suddenly through the window on the fifth floor. This is not something that humans can do without help and circumstances, and between me and her In the vague memory of the struggle, I saw her pale skin and face, and even touched her shockingly cold dead skin, which are not things that a living person should have."
Tang Yuanyuan's eyes drooped when he heard the girl's words, and he said:
"I'm afraid this isn't the first time you've seen ghosts, right? People who have never seen these things and don't believe in their existence will always have a protective mechanism in their brains when they see these things for the first time, thinking that they are imaginary hallucinations. But you I remember every detail and don’t doubt my memory at all.”
The girl nodded after listening to Tang Yuanyuan's words and sighed softly:
"Indeed, I can see these things for some reasons, so this is not the first time I have seen ghosts... By the way, you asked my name... My surname is Jiang, and my name is Jiang Yi ."
As soon as the girl mentioned her name, a slightly familiar illusion flashed through Tang Yuanyuan's mind. He always felt that he had heard this name from someone he knew.
But she didn't think much about it. After all, the name Jiang Yi was not uncommon, so she just asked again: "Then do you know why the female ghost attacked you? Or can you recognize that the female ghost is who?"
Jiang Yi shook her head: "I have no idea why she attacked me...but I know her."
"who?"
"That female ghost."
Tang Yuanyuan was a little surprised when she saw Jiang Yi's somewhat indifferent expression. It was the first time she saw someone who knew the evil ghost who hurt her was so calm. She didn't even feel threatened and oppressed at all, as if she was saying something was wrong. Your own business.
But before she could think about it, she heard Jiang Yi's last words.
"That female ghost is Yang Qixuan, Class 8, Grade 3, who committed suicide by jumping off a building a few days ago. I know her, although I'm not familiar with her. In fact, she had a brief exchange with me before she died, but I don't know why she Make trouble for me...even want me to die."
Jiang Yi's tone when she told this was very calm, not like someone who had just saved a life from a life-or-death situation. Tang Yuanyuan felt more and more weird in his heart while paying attention to the information in her words.
Jiang Yi was so calm that she felt that Jiang Yi was not the girl she had saved before. The girl who asked for help in the storage room was not so cold, and her look and eyes seemed completely different from the Jiang Yi in front of her. Man, that girl will scream and be scared and cry.
"There's one more thing..." Jiang Yi seemed to be concerned about something, but hesitated when she opened her mouth.
After a brief silence, she spoke again: "In my vague memory...it seems that there were not just the two of us in that storage room...I remember seeing a man who saved both of us... "
When Tang Yuanyuan heard this, he looked at Jiang Yi with a somewhat unnatural expression, thinking to himself, aren't you in a coma? Why do you have memories of such things? Was the coma staged, or did all this have another purpose in the first place?
At the same time as such questions appeared in her mind, she was finally convinced that there was something wrong with the girl in front of her.
"What's that person's name?" Jiang Yi finally asked after hesitating for a while, and her eyes came into Tang Yuanyuan's field of vision again.
For some reason, this confrontation with the girl in front of her made her feel particularly uncomfortable. Tang Yuanyuan's eyes when he saw Jiang Yi seemed to be different from before. There seemed to be the shadow of another person hidden in those eyes. Tang Yuanyuan couldn't place that shadow. Who it was, it just made her feel uncomfortable.
"His name is...No. 4." Tang Yuanyuan said after hesitating for a long time.
In the end, she did not directly say Yi Huai's name.
"He looks very much like an old friend I know." Seeing Tang Yuanyuan's appearance, Jiang Yi didn't ask any more questions. She just sighed and spoke as if talking to herself, "It's just that it was a long time ago. I can't remember clearly. "
What old friend would be like a "person" who has lived for hundreds or thousands of years? Tang Yuanyuan only nodded lightly after hearing her emotion and did not answer Jiang Yi's words.
Just as the two fell into a strange silence, the door to the spare ward of the infirmary was pushed open again, and someone broke in carrying a moaning and sobbing girl. The silence in the ward was suddenly broken.
Tang Yuanyuan withdrew his attention from Jiang Yi, frowned, and looked at the girl who had just entered the ward with a wound.
