It's almost evening.

Du Ruoying lay on the single bed bored, staring at the ceiling above her head in a daze until the door was knocked.

"Student Xiaoying?" William's voice came from outside the door.

Du Ruoying dragged the white shirt that was too big, walked lazily to the door, and opened the door: "What are you doing?"

"It's almost dinner time. Shall we go to the restaurant downstairs to eat together, or bring you a meal..." William's eyes fell on her suddenly.

The large white shirt makes her look very small, the loose neckline is messy around the neck, half covering the thin collarbone, and the hem of the shirt hangs lightly near the position where the thigh is one third from the knee, as if it only takes a while The breeze carried it up a little further, and you could see—

William felt dryness in his throat, "Why aren't you wearing suit pants?"

"It's too big to wear." Du Ruoying recalled the miserable situation of putting on his pants before, and couldn't help waving her hands angrily, "It's okay, this shirt is long enough."

As a fashionable girl in the 21st century, she has not realized that there is anything wrong with such a dress. After all, many of her usual skirts and pajamas are of this length.

As everyone knows, such an ignorant appearance, put on such an intentional or unintentional shirt, its lethality is doubled.

An inexplicable restlessness slowly rose from the depths of William's heart, gnawing at the disguised body called "Gentleness", as if it would burst out at any time.

The tip of his nose caught a scent of shower gel, which was the kind she often used. What was different from the past was that he also recognized a trace of his own breath from it——

from that shirt.

The ambiguous and mixed atmosphere was like a silent statement, full of meaning of occupation and marking, which he couldn't ignore.

"By the way, do you want to order takeaway together?" Du Ruoying suddenly had an idea.

"Takeaway?" William suddenly stopped paying attention.

"Yes, takeaway!" Du Ruoying emphasized happily.

After all, ordering takeaway together is not only cheap, but if she is lucky, she can also snag William's newcomer gift bag by the way, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.Thinking of this, she couldn't help secretly admiring her intelligence.

"Come on, lend me your mobile phone, Miss Ben will show you one of the greatest technologies of this era," she took his mobile phone, immersed herself in the operation, downloaded the takeaway software, completed the registration, filled in the inviter's account name, and received it. Newcomer gift pack...

Flowing clouds and water, in one go.

"Hey, what do you want to eat? Pizza? Cake? BBQ? Fried chicken? Or steak? Anything can be delivered~"

"Hmm..." William hadn't recovered from her strange clothes for a while.

Seeing his hesitation, Du Ruoying hurriedly added: "Don't worry, the meal price aa, each eats his own, I won't blackmail you."

"Is there any Stargazing School?" William asked.

Du Ruoying: ...

So is it hard to pass the stalk of looking up to the starry sky? !

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

However, as the saying goes, "people have to bow their heads under the eaves", in order to rub his newcomer gift bag, she decided——

Endure it! ! !

Du Ruoying suppressed her reluctance, opened a British-style handmade pie shop, added a sardine star-looking pie with zero sales to the shopping cart, and then ordered a wheat-flavored beef pie for herself.

Half an hour later, the takeaway arrived.

According to the instructions of the takeaway phone, William came to the lobby alone and got the takeaway. Just as he was about to leave, he noticed Wu Chi at the door. At this time, he was arguing fiercely with a sweaty deliveryman.

"...Don't make excuses with me, just say, you are 5 minutes late, what are you going to do?"

"I'm really sorry, it's too hot, I don't dare to drive the electric car too fast, I'm afraid the battery won't be able to bear it, I...I'll give you an apology!" The delivery man said humblely, "Please do me a favor, I have other The list is urgent to send, if you don't leave, it will be too late."

"Why, you can delay mine, but not others?" Wu Chi grabbed him and refused to let him go.

"You...why are you unreasonable? I apologize to you," the delivery man simply straightened his red neck, "Besides, you didn't buy JUSDA, so I won't violate the rules if I'm 5 minutes late. ?”

"Who is being unreasonable? Huh? Do you know how much the dim sum I ordered is? How much flavor will be lost by a minute's delay?" Wu Chi is still reluctant.

"In the end what you want?"

"What do you want? Hmph, of course I want you to compensate me!"

The delivery man looked anxiously at the countdown on the phone interface, and finally his face fell down. He reluctantly stuffed a crumpled red note into his hand, forcing him to let go.

"It's my bad luck, Jide will give you some coffin money today!"

Seeing the back of the delivery man leaving in resentment, Wu Chi laughed happily. He crumpled the banknote into a ball and threw it into the trash can arrogantly, as if what he threw was just waste paper.

"Repay the coffin money, bah, who cares about such cheap dirty money? Just let you learn a lesson." After finishing speaking, he strode towards the elevator, and his eyes met William's, "What are you looking at?" look?!"

"Seeing that your seal is black, it may be a bad omen." William smiled slightly.

"...?!" The other party suddenly laughed and turned angry. He wanted to explode, but he was afraid of what happened to the swimming pool, so he had to say "crazy" viciously, and then quickly left here.

"It's the first time I saw someone confronting him head-on, and he didn't dare to fight back. It's really relieving," a strange woman walked towards William with a courteous smile on her face. She had a small paper bag hanging on her wrist. There was a stack of promotional papers inside, and she took out a pink flat bag about the size of a matchbox from the bag, and stuffed it into his hand, "Be careful, please accept it."

William took the object curiously, pinched tentatively with two fingers, and vaguely felt that there was a soft round object inside.He saw a line of hotel printed on the front of the package, and an unfamiliar word called dorox on the back.

He remembered that this package had appeared on other customers before, and even Wu Chi just now had a corner of the same package exposed in the right trouser pocket.

The paper towels specially provided by the hotel...?

No, not right.

The shape of the paper towel is too strange, and the texture does not seem to be soft enough, the softness is more like a headband.But is it necessary to pack the general hair rope to this point?What's more, how could women's products such as headbands appear on a wide range of male customers?

Maybe something related to cigarettes?

Like a new tinder box or a fire bag, or freshener or something...

When he had no idea, he decided to suspend these meaningless guesses.He politely replied "Thank you" to the other party, then put this unremarkable little thing into his pocket, and took time to study it after preparation.

After handing over the takeaway to Du Ruoying, William decided to go to the restaurant downstairs to eat alone.

Perhaps because of the long-term relationship with Albert, he is not very accepting of eating in the bedroom, which will stain the desk or bed sheets with the smell of food.

Even if it's just a hotel bedroom.

What's more, being able to taste his favorite food while admiring the gorgeous sunset on the sea outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the restaurant is really an attractive thing, and he has no reason to refuse.

"I want to go too!" Du Ruoying said eagerly.

"No, this outfit is not suitable for going out." William refused decisively.

"Huh? What's inappropriate?" Du Ruoying raised her phone and showed him a bunch of street photos of women, all of them wearing long shirts that completely covered the shorts, naturally showing a pair of smooth thighs, "This way of dressing is very normal in our era, look at this, and this, this..."

Born as a rotten countryman in the Victorian period, William had never seen such a scene before. He quickly turned around, "Anyway, if I say no, it's no good."

Seeing him walking away, Du Ruoying retreated into the room uninterestedly.She put the takeaway on the table, turned on the TV, and picked out a suspense movie for dinner.

The dark night, the horrible haunted house, the mysterious serial death, the seductive detective, well, everything is a familiar formula, until——

"...Hanging Va Anadades!" Near the end, the young detective said solemnly, pointing to the only survivor.

Well, even the ending line is so familiar.

Du Ruoying silently took a bite of the beef pie in her hand, and waited for the protagonist to explain the truth.

"No... the murderer is not me! The murderer is—" The suspect suddenly widened his eyes in horror, and looked behind the detective, with an indescribable distorted expression on his face, "She is right behind you! The camera turned to the detective's shoulder, and a miserable blue face with disheveled hair emerged from the darkness out of nowhere, opened its mouth to the detective to reveal bloody fangs, and then bit down straight down.

"What's the matter?" Du Ruoying in front of the TV frowned, "This guy...isn't he dead already?"

On the TV, the last survivor screamed and ran to the door: "The curse is real, Ah Zhen has turned into a ghost, help! Help!"

The door of the exit was closed suddenly, and could not be opened no matter what. Finally, the blue face caught up with him, and the long, frog-like tongue suddenly shot out, piercing his neck, and the door was stained red with blood, revealing a line Twisted lettering written in pewter—

"The next one is you!"

The last frame of the ending was fixed on the terrifying close-up of the ghost lying on the screen, so scared that Du Ruoying almost smashed the remote control in her hand.

"Fuck, what rubbish reasoning drama, why did it look like a ghost movie?!"

She forced herself to calm down, trembling, and pressed the off button.

"Hehe... what a joke, I'm not afraid!"

She nervously swallowed the food in her mouth, and then scanned the empty room nervously. An inexplicable uneasiness slowly crept into her heart, which made her feel a chill down her spine.The terrifying blue face on the TV seemed to be engraved in her mind at this moment, and the clear image made her want to forget it even if she wanted to.From time to time, I felt a sense of death in the back of my neck, as if it would appear behind me with that face at any time.

She looked at the time uneasily, it was ten o'clock in the evening.

"Don't think about anything, just go to bed early."

She stretched her feet out of bed in fear, went to the bathroom to wash up, and while brushing her teeth, she silently recited the core values ​​of socialism.

The warm water stirred up a faint white mist, which slowly floated onto the mirror.She stretched out the towel and was about to wipe her face when she saw a line of words appear on the mirror.

The phrase "You will be next" suddenly appeared in her mind, she couldn't help but froze, and when she looked closely, it was actually just a non-threatening "Tianjiao came here for a visit".

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hahaha, who is so boring..." Du Ruoying laughed awkwardly, and then her eyes fell into complete darkness.

Together with the rationality stretched to the limit.

When she regained consciousness again, she was already standing at the door of William's room, with her hands resting on the closed door, her palms were flushed and painful.

You don't have to think about it, you must have knocked a lot.

Du Ruoying: ...Is it too late to withdraw now?Waiting online, very urgent.

The door suddenly opened wide, and the moment a warm light shone on her body, she felt that her heart was about to melt, and she even forgot to run away.

"What happened?" William asked, opening the door.

"No...it's nothing." The remaining self-esteem made her dare not tell the truth at all. "Just now...my room seems to have a power outage. Are you okay here?"

"My side also stopped for a minute," William said. "It should be that the entire hotel is out of power. I just looked outside, only this building can't see any lights. Now it should be an emergency activation of the backup power supply, temporarily restored The power supply is gone, and it seems to be unstable."

"Ah, so..." Du Ruoying lowered her head in a daze, turned around and walked towards her bedroom. Unexpectedly, the lights in the corridor suddenly flashed twice, which made her back away immediately, "Tonight... can I Stay here with you, I promise not to disturb you!"

"Hey, it doesn't matter to me." William let go of the door handle and motioned for her to come in.Looking at her distraught appearance, he had already guessed something in his heart, but finally he couldn't bear to say it out.

After all, she loves face so much...

After entering the door, Du Ruoying sat down at the desk consciously, "Can I read these books casually?"

"Okay." William nodded, and then went to the bathroom to wash up.

Du Ruoying casually flipped through the books he had piled up on the desk, and found that they were all labeled with the library of Pei Yu University, from Kafka's "The Trial", to Eliot's "The Wasteland", to Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea" has so many genres that people can't understand his preferences.

After choosing left and right, she picked up Joyce's "Ulysses", but suddenly a palm-sized pink plastic bag fell out from the bottom of the book. She picked it up and found that there was a famous sentiment printed on it The name of the supplies manufacturer dorox.

Du Ruoying: ...? ! !
