Chapter 1 Recovery
Dachang City, outside the door of an apartment, a high school student stood in front of the door and looked at the closed iron door. The cold iron exuded an inexplicable meaning, but it was obviously just a door. The door seems to separate two worlds, one side is sunny and the other side is as cold as prison.
Yang Jian resisted the urge to knock on the door. He knew that the person inside would never open the door now. He had been like this since he was a child. No matter what happened, he wanted to bear it alone and endure it alone. In the past, he would not bring his emotions to anyone else. In the eyes of outsiders, he seemed to never be angry and was always so gentle.
However, Yang Jian knew that these were all his disguises, and the real him was not like this.
Today is the seventh day since he disappeared. Something must have happened.
But the strange thing is that the teachers in the school didn't say anything, and the classmates around him didn't talk about it. Even Zhang Wei, who was promoted from junior high school at the same time, seemed to have forgotten him. Even Yang Jian himself, after reading the lecture last night, After I posted the ghost story, I remembered that this friend of mine had disappeared for several days, but the strange thing was that I didn't feel weird at all. Instead, I became accustomed to it, as if he didn't exist in the first place.
However, those memories clearly told him that these were all true.
He is behind this door.
"Liu Rui, I'm here for you, open the door."
Yang Jian took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Squeak!
With just a gentle knock, the iron door opened. It was obvious that the door was not locked at all.
Yang Jian hesitated and walked in, but the moment he entered, his body was shaken.
The cool wind instantly made him shiver. Looking around, he saw that the air conditioner in the distance was actually 16 degrees. Although the weather was still a bit hot, it would not be turned on at 16 degrees.
Moreover, with the door open, the room was dark, as if no one was there.
"Liu Rui, Liu Rui"
Yang Jian called twice again, but still no one answered.
Did he go out?
But he didn’t see him when he came up from downstairs. This apartment has only one staircase. Where did that classmate go?
"Liu Rui, are you there?"
Yang Jian walked to the bedroom door. The maroon door seemed out of place with the surroundings, as if it had suddenly appeared here and seemed a bit abrupt.
But he still pushed away.
Squeak!
The door opened, and a pale-faced high school student was lying next to the bed, his head almost hanging to the ground.
If it weren’t for this man wearing headphones and holding a mobile phone in his hand and playing Honor of Kings, Yang Jian almost thought this guy was not a living person.
Because he saw the corpse-like old man just last night. Just now, Liu Rui gave him a feeling similar to that old man.
Weird, cold.
At this time, the student also discovered Yang Jian, and then he sat up properly and said stiffly: "Yang Jian, why are you here, not going to school?"
" Do you know there is a school? You haven’t been there for a few days?”
“Um, hey, hey, I’m sick,” Liu Rui said perfunctorily, and quickly armed himself. He got up, took his power bank and followed Yang Jian to school.
On the way, the two of them chatted.
"Did something happen recently?"
"Why do you think so, what can happen to me?"
Liu Rui asked doubtfully.
Yang Zhen continued: "Every time you disappeared before, it was because something happened. You disappeared for four days after your grandfather passed away, and you disappeared for four days after your father passed away."
He listed the number of times Liu Rui disappeared one by one, then walked in front as if nothing had happened, and asked: "What happened this time?"
Liu Rui was silent for a while and did not answer, because he did not know How should I say that my mother is dead?
Although it is true, it cannot be said because at this moment, his mother is still in the company.
Seeing that Liu Rui didn't speak, Yang Jian didn't continue to press.
The two of them arrived at the school one after another, but as soon as they arrived in class, they met a girl.
"Yang Jian, who is behind you, Liu Rui?"
Miao Xiaoshan said with some uncertainty. Although this person is her junior high school classmate, she has never met Liu Rui several times. It was as if this person didn't leave many traces in her memory.
"Well, I was sick some time ago."
After Liu Rui answered, he walked to the last row and started his journey to catch up on sleep, while Yang Jian on the side also silently took the I took out my mobile phone and started eating chicken.
Time passed like this little by little, and it was not until evening that Liu Rui sat up from his seat wilted.
"Beautiful Miao Xiaoshan, please lend me your homework to copy."
However, as soon as he finished saying this, the classroom fell silent, and everyone looked at Liu Rui as if he had seen a ghost.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm embarrassed."
"You're still embarrassed, I didn't notice it." A middle-aged man's voice came from behind him It rang.
No need to listen, no need to look, this is definitely the head teacher.
Just when he thought he would be punished and unable to sleep, the head teacher actually ignored him and walked to the podium to speak.
"Today's evening self-study was changed to a publicity class. Cheer me up. Liu Rui, you have been sleeping all day. If you sleep with me again, be careful and I will deal with you. And Miao Xiaoshan, no borrowing is allowed. Give him homework."
Yang Jian kept watching this scene, always feeling a little strange, because Liu Rui hadn't been here for seven days, but the students around him acted as if he had never left. That sense of freshness and the feeling of not seeing each other for a long time.
No matter how familiar a person is, he will have a strange sense of strangeness with the surrounding environment and people after disappearing for a period of time. This is inevitable.
However, Liu Rui seems to have avoided it.
No one around seemed to care how many days he disappeared, it was as if he had never disappeared.
But he didn't care too much, because Liu Rui was very popular and could always get along with others.
Soon, a man wearing a gray windbreaker walked in, and this man was Zhou Zheng.
Liu Rui looked at the person in front of him, and a bold idea came to his mind.
“If I solve the starving ghost at this time, what changes will happen in the future? Will there be a second starving ghost?”
He listened to Zhou Zheng's speech quietly, but his mind had already drifted far away.
He knew that Zhou Zheng was a ghost controller, and he also knew what would happen next.
And all of this stems from the fact that he is a time traveler, and he has traveled through the novel Terror Resurrection.
Furthermore, he still traveled through time into the body of a ghost.
The current Liu Rui is not his real name, but is possessed by this unlucky child. In other words, the current Liu Rui is actually a corpse possessed by a ghost.
However, this kind of possession is not complete. As the supernatural power erodes, the body possessed by him will gradually wither and rot, becoming a real corpse.
Moreover, this change is irreversible. At least, he currently has no access to anything that can reverse this change.
Liu Rui looked at Zhou Zheng in front of him, planning what would happen next.
But at this moment, the lights in the classroom suddenly went out.
