Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Fei Zhu's Sleepwalking

Returning home easily, the door was still tightly closed and all the curtains had fallen. Xiaoji tried to make several calls, but no one answered. Everything was exactly the same as when she left.

My parents have been gone for half a month now, and I don't know if they are doing well there. They used to be together without feeling anything, but now that they are separated, I realize that my longing for them is unforgettable.

When she returned home with nothing to do, Xiaoji read the letter from another world again, imagining the image of the white bearded old man in her mind. Combined with the stories her mother had told before, she suddenly longed for their lives. If she hadn't experienced that time yet, she would have gone back with them to take a look.

However, this can only be speculation. She herself is not yet an adult, and even if her father is willing to take her there, her mother's cautious personality will definitely reject it. Therefore, some things cannot be too urgent, it's better to wait until later.

After staying at home for two days, she could feel the happiness of a family of three everywhere. On the day of returning to school, she reluctantly closed the door and walked towards the school.

On the way, passing by the Xihe Corridor, Xiaoji couldn't help but glance at the fork in the road again, remembering what happened to Shijiu here a few days ago.

The few iron buckets were still neatly placed on the roadside, but without the presence of that person, they looked a bit strange and abrupt, as if someone could jump out from behind at any time.

Is he supposed to be okay?

A trace of guilt flashed through my heart, but it was soon replaced by calmness. Whether he was okay or not had nothing to do with me. It was best to lie in bed and be honest for a few months, so as not to get into trouble again in the future.

This sentence was whispered in Xiaoji's heart, but she didn't expect that in the following week, someone else would bring her more troubles.

This annoyance did not come from Shi Jiu's revenge, nor from Mu Dongyang's intentional probing. Since that day, Shi Jiu has never seen it again, and Mu Dongyang has been busy with the sports meeting and has no time to be separated. It can be said that her high school life has finally taken shape, everything is so beautiful, except for a few secrets that cannot be told in the dormitory.

The first one is sneaky and likes Cui Zizhi who appears on mysterious nights.

Since discovering that she was sneaking out that night, there has been no movement for the next few days. However, just when Xiao Ji thought everyone's lives would calm down, Cui Zizhi suddenly intensified after a short weekend and became a complete night ranger.

She usually goes out at midnight and doesn't come back until around 3am. During this period, everyone was sleeping soundly, and it can be said that apart from Jin Xiaoji, no one noticed her abnormality.

And Cui Zizhi seems to be very happy with such an exciting life. Every morning, she wakes up with a radiant expression, stretches lazily, and then greets her roommates like someone else. After tidying up, she goes to training with Fei Zhu.

However, while Cui Zizhi enjoyed it, Jin Xiaoji suffered.

Every night she would be awakened by the sound of Cui Zizhi's footsteps. Although this sound was nothing to an ordinary person's ear, her hearing was different from that of an ordinary person. Therefore, every night she was tortured by this "noise" and tossed and turned. After a few days, the dark circles under her eyes finally came out.

A panda appeared in the dormitory, and Bohe naturally refused to miss this opportunity to tease people. Every morning, she would make fun of Xiao Ji's eye circles and mock her for being so engrossed in reading that she could easily fall for it.

But the speaker had no intention, but the listener had an intention. It was just an unintentional joke. Little Ji didn't have much to say, but no one expected that there was another person in the room who was always paying attention to them.

This person is Fei Zhu, who likes to sleepwalk!

Since her last sleepwalk, Fei Zhu's behavior has become increasingly abnormal. Almost every one or two days, she appears silently under her bed, with her eyes tightly closed and her hands raised flat. She always holds her book in her hands, sitting solemnly as if she is burying her head in reading.

Because the situation was too strange, in the first few days, Xiaoji had to be mentally prepared every time she woke up, afraid that she would face a blank face when she opened her eyes.

This kind of day continued intermittently, without Fei Zhu's knowledge, and Xiao Ji's kindness did not reveal it. However, there will always be a day when things cannot be sealed by paper. Cui Zizhi's unusually late return finally exposed this secret to everyone.

Cui Zizhi came back very late that day, almost four o'clock in the morning, but she was nowhere to be seen. At this moment, the bed across from him made a familiar creaking sound, and as soon as he opened his eyes, a white shadow crawled down from the bed.

Fei Zhu's movements were very slow, like slow motion in a movie. Her neck was stiff, her eyes were shaking, but her eyelids were not open.

Watching her start sleepwalking early today, Xiaoji already had a bad feeling. As expected, after about five minutes, another faint footstep came from the hallway.

Cui Zizhi's movements were very light, but her steps were very relaxed. As usual, she gently pushed open the dormitory door and cautiously looked inside.

Normally, sleepwalkers are completely immersed in their own world and cannot feel the changes around them. But this time, something strange happened, and almost as soon as Cui Zizhi's head reached in, Fei Zhu miraculously turned around.

At night, dressed in white and with an expressionless face, a scream shattered the tranquility of the dormitory.

After venting her fear, Cui Zizhi's reaction was very rapid. She quickly realized that Fei Zhu was sleepwalking, so she tightly covered her mouth, quickly took off her nightgown, and then turned on the dormitory light.

The light shone on Bohe's face, finally pulling her back from Zhou Gongmeng. This nervous person looked around in a daze and then sat up suddenly.

Xiaoji, what's wrong? Why don't you sleep late at night

The question was about Xiao Ji, but she was looking at Fei Zhu. Xiao Ji shrugged and gestured for herself to take a look.

Fei Zhu looked very strange, her hands held flat, and Jin Xiaoji's book was held by her like a precious treasure. This action lasted for a while, and then Xiaoji's book fell to the ground with a 'pop', but Fei Zhu laughed.

Everyone felt the cold air blowing down their necks and their cold pores standing up. Bohe seemed very scared, his face turned pale for a moment, and he turned to Cui Zizhi, who was closest to Fei Zhu, for help.

Cui Zizhi's reaction was unusually calm. From the moment she found out that she had changed her clothes before turning on the light and calling for someone, Xiaoji had already looked at her differently. At this moment, she pondered for a moment and opened her mouth again.

Fee

Before Zhuzi could even shout out, Xiaoji kindly reminded her, "You can't shout, she'll be scared

What should we do then? Her appearance is so terrifying, as if she's possessed by a ghost. "Bohe picked up a blanket and wrapped it around himself, revealing only half of his face." She can't even scream. Do we have to wait for her to wake up on her own

The eyebrows of the ghost character named Cui Zizhi immediately twisted into a ball, and she walked her slender legs around Fei Zhu several times. Just when everyone couldn't figure out what she wanted to do, she suddenly let out a resolute sigh and then struck Fei Zhu like lightning.

A hand knife accurately struck Fei Zhu's neck, and Cui Zizhi's movements were like flowing clouds and water, with just the right amount of force and direction. Fei Zhu fell to the ground in response, limp in Zi Zhi's arms, and was then laid down on the bed like rice by her.

Got it! Tomorrow she won't remember anything except for a slight pain here, "Cui Zizhi pointed to the position of her back neck and then giggled at the stunned Bohe." That was a risky move just now, I didn't expect to hit her on the first attempt to kill someone. The movie really wasn't a waste of learning

Cui Zizhi's laughter brought back Bohe's soul, and a hint of enlightenment appeared on her face: "So I learned from television. I thought you were a hidden martial arts master. Zizhi, you looked so handsome just now. I almost fell in love with you

Haha, how could that be? If I were a hero, I would be invincible all over the world, so how could I be here? "Cui Zizhi yawned heavily, rubbed her eyes, and went to bed." I always thought I watched too much TV, but I didn't expect you to exaggerate. Everyone, go to sleep quickly. It will be dawn in a little while

The light was suddenly turned off by her, and the room became hazy. Xiaoji turned over and slowly replayed the scene in her mind.

What does it mean to learn from television? Cui Zizhi's hand knife is definitely not the first time she has used it! Her position, her moves, and everything else were all forged through a hundred trials, and only a simple person like Bohe would believe such lies.

A few faint nasal snores soon sounded in the room, and these heartless guys were able to sleep despite all the things that had happened. Xiaoji sighed helplessly, her glasses carefully placed on her face, and then jumped down lightly.

Anyway, I can't sleep. Why don't I read some more books.

The book that was almost torn apart by Fei Zhu just now was still on the table. Xiao Ji gently opened it, and the book immediately emitted a faint ink fragrance. However, no matter how fragrant it was, the content of the book was still shallow and dry, like the nine years that had passed away like dry water.

I just hope the dark circles under my eyes can be reduced tomorrow, so that Bohe won't make a fuss again. With this thought in mind, there won't be any other sounds in the room anymore
