Chapter 1:

A woman in white with short hair was sitting at his desk with his back to him.
At night, the moonlight was like a veil, and the woman was lying on the table with her hands motionless.
No lights, no sound.
There was silence all around.
Lin Sheng was lying on the bed, with his head wrapped in a quilt, looking at the woman at the table.
He felt a little weird. He remembered that he went to bed at 9:30, but now he looked at the sky, at most 3 or 4 am.
This was his bedroom. As soon as he woke up, he saw a woman sitting at his desk.
Where did this woman come from .....?
He narrowed his eyes, nearly five hundred Baidu's eyes, only to see that it was a woman in white, it seemed very young.
But where is the woman in white? My mother never wears white. My sister is going to college in a field and always wears a school uniform.
The surroundings are terrible.
Lin Sheng frowned, trying to blink, trying to see who the woman was sitting there.
But it was too dark at night to see anything clearly.
What's more frightening is that his body can't move!
Suddenly, he seemed to hear someone talking and chatting. The voice was behind him, right next to the bed where he slept, out of sight.
The voice was close at hand, as if the speaker was staring at him while talking against his back.
He seemed to think that there were two speakers who were staring at him with weird and cold eyes, while chatting in the mouth with unintelligible words.
Lin Sheng felt the goosebumps popping out.
Click.
There was another crisp sound.
It seemed that the door was open and someone came in.
Suddenly all the voices disappeared, Lin Sheng turned back and saw the white woman at the table stood up slowly and silently, his back turned motionless.
Her long white sleeves were like the sleeves of a long skirt, loose and hollow. Body movements are as rigid and precise as machinery.
"....I..."
Lin Sheng wanted to speak, but he found in horror that he couldn't make a sound.
His body was like cramps all over his body, tensing uncontrollably, trembling. Massive cold sweat percolated from the vest, and he felt his teeth tremble involuntarily.
Da, Da, Da, Da.
There were crisp footsteps at the door again, and the footsteps stopped at the end of the bed, as if someone came to stand still.
Lin Sheng was terrified. He tried hard to retract his body into the quilt, tried to relax his body as much as possible, wanted to lie flat, and tried to prevent both the comer and the woman in white from detecting someone on the bed.
He felt that as long as they were lying flat, they might think that the bed was just a thicker quilt.
But his body couldn't move. Legs and back cramps terribly. So much so that he had to do his best to suppress the tremors and pain.
Da, Da, Da ...
He heard footsteps approaching the bed.
The fear in Lin Sheng's heart was extreme.
He wanted to close his eyes to prevent himself from seeing the approaching scene, but the inexplicable panic made him unable to blink.
puff! !! !!
Suddenly a pair of cold hands slammed into the quilt and grabbed his feet.
what! !! !! !! !!
Lin Sheng yelled loudly and sat upright from the bed. He was sweaty, pale, eyes wide, and bloodshot.
Whirring whirring.....
He lowered his head, panting heavily, breathing fresh air.
"I ... have that dream again ..." He bent his legs and touched the position just caught by the cold hands.
There was nothing there, just like usual, no scars, no pain.
But the feeling just now is still vivid and clear.
The morning light was bright outside the window.
Lin Sheng turned over and got out of bed, just as someone was knocking on the door.
Alas.
"Did you just call it?"
The elder sister's voice was a little worried, coming from the door.
Lin Sheng touched his forehead with both hands, his head covered with sweat. He took a deep breath.
"It's okay, just a nightmare."
"It's all right. You've been surprised recently. Is there something wrong at school?" The sister asked again.
"It's okay ..... really, it's just a nightmare." Lin Sheng answered in silence.
"Breakfast is ready, get up and drink some hot milk, and people will be more comfortable." The sister comforted and turned away.
Lin Sheng sat by the bed, always remembering the dream.
This is not the first time he has dreamed this dream.
For three consecutive days, it was the same dream. The final outcome is the same. He was caught on his feet and couldn't move.
Subconsciously touching his feet, Lin Sheng stood up, walked to the desk, and yanked open the curtains.
The dazzling sunlight suddenly illuminated the entire bedroom, and even the dust in the air was visible.
He is an ordinary high school student. After three years of studying in Hui'an Middle School, he is about to meet the college entrance examination.
My dad is a grocery store. My mother is a kindergarten teacher in kindergarten. The family income is not more than 100,000 a year.
My elder sister is still studying in a foreign university and will leave in a few days. Now she is just going home temporarily for a few days.
"So, most of the time, I'm alone at home."
Lin Sheng was silent and reached out to open the door.
Outside was a white, sunny corridor.
The sound of my sister's busy washing was heard in the kitchen.
Lin Sheng walked to the kitchen, picked up the hot milk from the counter, and drank into his stomach.
Sister Lin Xiao never liked to dress up, always a white t-shirt and jeans, not a tight type, just ordinary loose trousers.
The only thing that is special is that she has black waist-length hair, gentle and quiet lightness.
Lin Sheng put down the milk glass, reached for a piece of hot bread, and bit his mouth to eat.
"Today, my parents are not there. I'm in charge of cooking, but I'm leaving tomorrow. You should arrange your own life. Don't always worry about it."
The older sister turned around and took off the apron, and sat down on the high stool beside the cupboard. She also took a glass of milk and sipped her mouth, and her mouth was broken.
"Well." Lin Sheng answered, not knowing what to say.
"Is pocket money enough? I earned a little part-time job before vacation, and it was enough. I didn't remember to ask for me." My sister Lin Xiao always liked to worry, worry about this and worry about that, she was this nature since she was a child.
"enough."
"........" Lin Xiao thought for a while, "Do you want any special products? I had a trade fair at the school before. I went shopping. It's not bad. It is the characteristic of Kong Xi. If you like it, I can mail you a porcelain doll. It is said that the porcelain doll over there is finely crafted. Many of my classmates like it ... "
Lin Xiao started thinking again.
Lin Sheng listened silently, and it wasn't until the elder sister read for more than ten minutes that she answered quietly.
"Nothing you want."
"Well ... you don't always have to be so stuffy. You can go out and socialize with people when you are free. It has been like this, but no girl likes it." Lin Xiao helpless.
Like other friends in the bedroom, she is also a family-oriented person, and her brother, who has always been dull, has become her most worried object.
Thinking of the big brother at her friend's house, because of her dull personality, she couldn't find her wife in her forties, she felt a sense of urgency.
"I see." Lin Sheng has always been this character.
The two were speechless for a while, but just bowed their heads for breakfast.
The bread on the plate quickly bottomed out, and the milk glass quickly emptied.
The sister lowered her hand and looked up at Lin Sheng.
"Shen Shen, I have a part-time job in college and I have enough money. If you are difficult, you can call me."
"I see, sister." Lin Sheng answered, bowing his head.
"Heavy." Lin Xiao suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on Lin Sheng's left shoulder.
Shen Shen is Lin Sheng's nickname at home, and only the closest ones will call it that.
"When I was away, you were a man. It ’s not easy for them to help their parents. Now something happened to the mother ’s kindergarten. A child was lost. It happened to be the class that the mother was responsible for. Both sides are still processing. Although my mother is okay, she also took some responsibility and was deducted from salary ... "
Lin Sheng nodded.
"Sister, don't worry, I'm fine here."
"Then why is your face so bad?" Lin Xiao worried.
"Am I looking bad?" Lin Sheng frowned.
"Go to the bathroom and see for yourself." Lin Xiao helplessly, loosening his shoulder.
Lin Sheng turned around and quickly walked out of the kitchen and into the bathroom.
As soon as he looked up, he looked exactly in the mirror.
A pale, bloodless face with gray lips.
"Did you take a rest last night? Would you stop going to bed?" Lin Xiao's voice of concern came from the bathroom door.
Lin Sheng touched his lips, only dry, peeling texture.
"I ... had a nightmare last night. It's okay, just a moment."
He didn't want to worry his family, even though the nightmare was quite real. But his tone still seemed understated.
"Okay, I'm going out first, I need to be busy. You come back from school in a little while, and then you can eat your own food at noon. Don't worry about me. My parents also went to Grandpa's side today. Just leave the house with the key. "
"I see." Lin Sheng answered calmly.
The door closed soon afterwards.
There was no sound in the whole house.
Lin Sheng stood alone in front of the mirror and looked at his face, wondering why, he suddenly felt that nightmare last night would not be so simple.
"Hope is just an ordinary dream."
Lin Sheng turned out of the bathroom and walked into the living room.
There are two hundred-dollar bills on the long wooden table in the living room.
With different angles, the green paper glows with different color luster.
Lin Sheng reached out and squeezed the money in his hand, without speaking.
Because this is pocket money for the next two months.
Previously, his pocket money was one hundred dollars a month. The food and everything were all settled by the school.
Now for two hundred yuan, it takes two months. That is, it is fifteen dollars a Tuesday, spread evenly, and only three dollars a day ...
"I can only spend more than three dollars a day .... Save it." Lin Sheng got up and walked towards his room.
I changed my school uniform in the room. On the left chest of the school uniform with blue and white stripes, I also put a school badge on it. It is a simple pattern of rooster independence. The two characters of Huian are written below.
Lin Sheng packed his schoolbag, changed to the same blue and white ordinary sneakers, and then hurried out the door.
The aunts and uncles who were selling vegetables went out of the community and took the old bus at the bus stop near the gate.
Then he hurried for more than ten minutes. Finally, he squeezed out of the crowd among a large group of office workers, jumped out of the car, rushed into the school, and hurried to the bell before entering the classroom.
