Chapter 5:
At night outside the circus, there are no lights and no stars.
After washing his face and makeup, Chao Su sat in front of the mirror, constantly flipping through the clown training sheet he just found in the drawer. The content on the clown training sheet is all about "ball" training - such as tossing, dribbling, turning, catching...
Each item tests wrist strength.
Zhao Su took out a ball from the drawer and started to throw and toss the ball. However, after trying once or twice, Chaosu found that she seemed to be particularly gifted in controlling the "ball".
The trajectory, elasticity of the ball, and its final landing point, direction... All aspects of the ball, towards Su can be deduced in his mind. This made Chao Su slightly surprised.
Just as he was thinking about Su, a footstep sounded in the room. Zhuang Yan stepped on the ground with bare feet, and sat beside Chao Su with a body of water vapor. She is an animal trainer, and most of the content on the training table is related to lions - training lions, communicating with lions to cultivate feelings, dressing lions...
Zhuang Yan said: "What is this? I just looked around, there are no lions in this circus."
As soon as she finished saying this, she saw Chao Su, who was sitting next to her, glance at her. Under the bright light, Chao Su's skin was dazzlingly white. She raised her ink-like eyebrows and said with a slight smile:
"I know where?"
Zhuang Yan: "Where?"
Su looked towards the corner of the wall. Zhuang Yan followed her gaze and saw three lion-like dolls in the corner of the wall.
Lions? What about the majestic lion she imagined?
Why is it gone!
Three minutes later, Chao Su and Zhuang Yan, one holding the ball and the other facing the doll, began to train.
After a while, a lion doll roared: "Ow"
Chao Su looked at the doll and finally determined that everyone's identity will give her corresponding talents. After almost trying, Chao Su and Zhuang Yan decided to go to sleep.
Training missions will be available tomorrow. With today's attempt, tomorrow's task should be a lot easier.
In addition, there is something more fortunate that although Chao Su does not have a watch, Zhuang Yan does. Due to the nature of her work, Zhuang Yan will habitually wear a watch, and will also check the time on the watch with the local time to ensure that the time difference does not exceed three seconds.
Although there is a watch, there is no alarm clock. Both her and Zhuang Yan's mobile phones are in a state of black screen, like bricks. Therefore, Chaosu can only use this psychological suggestion to get himself up early.
This method, which she used in high school, has a certain effect.
Thinking like this, Chao Su closed his eyes. She could feel the incandescent light shining on her eyelids, forming a hazy halo. She didn't turn off the light, even though she knew that the light might be useless to ghosts, but in the current situation, she still felt a little bit more secure.
…
Three in the morning.
The male teller was suddenly awakened by a burst of urination, he woke up from his sleep irritably, and began to dawdle on the bed. There are two reasons why he doesn't want to go to the toilet. First, he is mainly lazy. Second... He snickered, his legs rubbing against Lingling's right leg beside him.
Smooth, with a touch of coolness…
The male teller squinted his eyes in enjoyment, the rhythm of rubbing slightly accelerated, and even his heart sped up a lot because of this stimulating action.
Although he and Lingling did not do anything special at night, the bed originally placed in the room was as he wished. Now, the distance between him and Lingling is indented infinitely. The male teller could even feel Lingling's breath gently falling on his neck.
It seems that as long as he leaves this supernatural space, the possibility of him chasing Lingling is much higher.
While imagining, the male teller secretly took advantage. In the end, I couldn't hold it any longer, so I moved reluctantly, intending to straighten up and go to the toilet. He just lifted the quilt and put on his slippers, and when his legs were about to stand up, he suddenly paused.
He seemed to sense something, reached out and turned on the lamp by the bedside, turned his head, and saw Lingling staring at him with her eyes open. Those eyes were as dark as stagnant water, without any waves, and even gave the male teller a creepy feeling.
The male teller took a step back subconsciously, then he was startled by his inexplicable behavior, touched his head and said:
"I went to the toilet, why haven't you slept yet?"
He saw Lingling nodded and lay back again. Her black and beautiful hair was spread out on the pillow like this. Looking at the dense hair, at this moment he even felt the same as the patients with intensive phobia - nausea, dizziness, fear, suffocation.
"I'm a little scared." Lingling whispered.
Seeing Lingling looking at him pitifully, the machismo in the male teller's heart was bursting, he waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there is me." On the other hand, he moved towards the bathroom in a panic. go. He really couldn't hold back.
The hormones came up, and the male teller instantly forgot the fear just now.
He wiped his hands, and when he came out of the bathroom, he found that the room was dark.
"Why did the light suddenly turn off?" the male teller asked, and he reached out to touch the switch on the wall. However, after fumbling for a long time, instead of finding the switch, he also touched a pair of cold hands.
"Lingling?" The male teller swallowed, his voice trembling slightly. He retracted his hand subconsciously, but in the process of retracting, he hit the switch.
There is a click and the light turns on. At the same time, a pair of icy hands stretched out from behind him and gently rested on his shoulders. The male teller now realized that something was wrong.
He turned his head to look behind him, and then his eyes widened as if he had seen something incredible.
A drop of blood fell on the ground, and a ball suddenly rolled off the female teller's body and slapped on the ground, making a "bang, bang, bang" sound.
At six o'clock in the morning, the sky outside the window was a little brighter than before, but there was still not much light, just like a layer of gray fog, a bit like the sky before the rain.
Chaosu woke up at about four or five o'clock and heard the sound of "bang bang bang" in the corridor. The voice sounded from the end of the corridor, passing by Chao Su's room and moving further afield.
When the sound became quieter and the ball sounded farther and farther, Chao Su, who had just woken up, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhao Su moved her body, she instinctively wanted to open her eyes and get out of bed to check the situation. However, at this moment, a sense of crisis stopped her from moving. Following her previous movements, she turned over and leaned against the wall, while at the same time, she let the quilt wrap her body firmly.
Although the effect of this is better than nothing, it at least makes Chao Su feel more at ease. Chao Su slowed his breathing and pretended not to wake up.
It wasn't until about six o'clock, when there were voices and voices outside, that Chao Su opened his eyes.
The weak light in the morning came in from the window, clearly presenting everything in the room to Chao Su's eyes. Chao Su got up from the bed, took a shower, and after waking up Zhuang Yan, he sat in front of the mirror, picked up the makeup tools on it, and painted clown makeup.
While drawing, she was doing a review in her mind. From the moment she opened her eyes in the morning, she felt something was wrong. It seemed that there was something more or less in the room, which made her a little uncomfortable.
So, from the moment she woke up, she was thinking about what was wrong.
Drawing and drawing, Zhao Su's gaze suddenly fell on the corner of the mirror! It was empty and there was nothing else. If you insist on anything, it is that there is a switch on that clean white wall.
Incandescent light switch.
Chaosu's hand holding the eyebrow pencil stopped at the eyebrows, her heart was pounding at this moment, and her straight back began to sweat little by little!
She finally knew what was wrong!
Chao Su froze, with a fluke, she raised her voice and asked Zhuang Yan in the bathroom:
"Zhuang Yan, did you wake up in the middle of the night?"
Zhuang Yan: "No, what's wrong?"
Zhao Su licked his lips and forced a smile:
"It's not a big deal, it's just that the lights in our room were turned off by ghosts."
Chaosu finally knew why she felt something was wrong when she first woke up. Because at that time, it was dark in front of her eyes - that is to say, at that time, something was in her room, and she turned off the lights in their room.
It is even possible to see them in the dark for a long time.
Zhuang Yan instantly became quiet, she came out of the bathroom in a panic, and looked at Chao Su, who was pale. The two looked at each other, seeing the expressions on each other's faces, and the last bit of luck in their hearts was gone.
No one lied between them.
Zhuang Yan was stunned again: "So, there were ghosts in our room yesterday."
Chao Su Bu added silently: "It's still a ghost that saves electricity. It sees us wasting electricity and turns off the lights for us."
Zhuang Yan was horrified at first, but after hearing Chao Su's words, she was inexplicably mesmerized. She paused, thought about it carefully, and actually felt that this sentence was irrefutable and seemed reasonable.
I must be crazy.
Zhuang Yan wiped her face and was about to go back to wash up when suddenly, someone knocked on their door.
"Bang bang bang."
The shape of the door was slightly deformed by the force. From the crack of the door that gradually expanded, Chao Su and Zhuang Yan could see a pair of dark eyes looking at them.
