"I'm going to the library for a day." Si Yu said.
"Hmm, you should pay attention to your rest. Don't be too tired from reading."
Hearing Chu Ran's words, Si Yu laughed heartily and said, "I'm not going to read books, it's because I saw a novel in the library, but I can't borrow it from others. I can only read it from within."
"So that's how it is." Chu Ran also laughed. Si Yu did not have any big hobbies, his usual big hobby was just reading books.
"Senior, I'm looking forward to your return." Si Yu mischievously said that when Chu Ran returned, there would be people driving around to eat with her again. Si Yu did not know how to drive, and other than staying over at night, Xu Mo did not see her most of the day.
"Haha, alright. I'll treat you to a meal when I get back." Chu Ran said.
"I'll treat senior to a meal when we get back, but senior has to drive." Si Yu said.
"You should learn a driver's license." Chu Ran joked.
Si Yu replied, "I don't dare to drive and I don't want to learn my driving license."
That was perfect. Chu Ran was willing to be Si Yu's driver for life, he looked at his watch and said: "It's getting late, get some rest." Chu Ran still had a lot of work to do, but he would find time to call Si Yu every single day.
The next morning, Si Yu woke up and entered the library as soon as the door was opened. Si Yu was afraid that he would be late today and would not be able to finish his reading. To Si Yu, this was a fatal torment and only the power of books could stop him from sleeping lazily.
That guy really liked architecture, especially Gothic architecture. He accidentally stepped on Si Yu when he was looking for a book, and Si Yu saw that the boy was holding a book called "The Memory of the Line" in his hands. Si Yu really liked this book, but he didn't think that he would meet someone who shared the same interests as him, so the two of them started chatting, and Si Yu found that this man was very similar to the type of books he liked.
Seeing that it was almost time to close and there were still a few pages left, Si Yu sped up his reading speed. However, he was still a step too late because Si Yu liked to sit at the corner and read. When he checked, he only missed Si Yu, and the door to the library on the second floor was already closed.
Si Yu anxiously laid on his stomach to inspect the entrance. The wait inside was already turned off and the corridor was still lit up. Si Yu turned his head to look at the row of black bookshelves and felt cold sweat trickling down his back.
"Hello, is there anyone here?" Si Yu shouted uneasily, hoping that someone who hadn't left would notify the guard to open the door for her.
After shouting for so long, there wasn't a single person in sight. The librarian's ears were still ringing. Could it be that he was going to have to spend the night here? He then looked at the bookshelf behind him, causing Si Yu to shiver.
"Is anyone there?" Si Yu shouted again, his pale voice echoing throughout the corridor. It sounded extremely terrifying.
He took out his phone. Coincidentally, there was no power off, so he was planning to call Xu Mo to save her. But there was nothing he could do.
Not long after, the waiting in the corridor began to extinguish one by one. Darkness followed after another, and Si Yu immediately held his breath as he felt something slowly approaching him. He didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Si Yu immediately cried out in fright, but there was no response. After that sound, there was no other sound from the bookshelf.
"Is someone there?" Si Yu asked through the air.
The Nan University Library was famous for being large, it was a building similar to a courtyard, but the floor was very tall, and Si Yu was located in the reading room on the fifth floor. Following the extinguishing of the lights in the corridor, the entire library was completely quiet, not a single sound could be heard, and other than the sounds coming from the bookshelves, Si Yu could not hear anything else.
Such a large building was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. No matter how Si Yu shouted, there was no response. Si Yu felt his way to the door and was about to flip it open when he heard a series of sounds coming from the innermost bookshelf. He immediately held his breath, that was where the sound came from, and now there was a sound as well.
She was famous for being a coward. A few days ago, she was still lying on her bed watching the grave robbing novel, with Xu Mo following her to watch the Japanese and Korean horror movies. At this moment, that terrifying scene and scene from the novels and movies suddenly surfaced in her mind.
Si Yu tightly held onto his bag in his hand and protected his chest as he silently said to himself, "Mom, I beg of you to stop thinking about this."
All of a sudden, Si Yu felt something closing in on him from behind, and he also felt something approaching him from all directions. He remembered the scene in the movie where the female corpse suddenly appeared behind him and was so frightened that he didn't dare to move or make a sound.
There must be something over there. It must be a ghost girl with her hair covering her face, or a little boy with a pale face and blood-red eyes, or a rotten mummy all over her body. Si Yu's mind was filled with these horrible things.
Si Yu's scalp went numb as he tried to guide his thoughts in the right direction. For example, he met a good ghost, a ghost who refused to leave due to a grievance, or a ghost who wanted someone to help him fulfill his wish. When he thought about it like this, Si Yu felt much better.
Si Yu was on the verge of going crazy from the torture. This kind of feeling was, even though you knew that there was something very close to you, but you didn't know when it would pounce at you, you still had to be vigilant. This was a type of mental torture.
After repeating this a few times, Si Yu was also scared to the point of being a little numb, but he didn't feel that it was that scared anymore. He thought that if it was something he didn't have, perhaps he could really help out, not to mention he didn't have to worry about it during the day, didn't fear ghosts knocking at the door in the middle of the night. Bai Yu thought that he had never done anything bad before, and would often help kittens and puppies cross the road.
Bai Yu slowly picked up a stack of books, placed them in front of his chest, and held a piece of jade on his neck in his hand. Everyone said that jade had its own intelligence, this jade had been with him for more than ten years.
Walking to the last bookshelf where the voice came from, Si Yu gathered up his courage and whispered, "May I ask what your unfulfilled wish is?"
After a long while, there was no response.
Si Yu thought that maybe that thing was also afraid of people, so he gathered up his courage and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm a good person, I won't hurt you."
After a long while, there was still no response.
Si Yu summoned up his courage and said, "Then, have you suffered any injustice? Tell me, I can help you report the crime. I've been to the police station and am familiar with the situation there."
"Pu!" A voice came from the corner of the bookshelf. Si Yu immediately covered her eyes with the book in fright. She wasn't afraid of ghosts, only the ghost's face. If every ghost in the movie looked like Hallo Kity, could it still be called a horror movie?
However, after his voice faded away, the bookshelf returned to silence. A thought quickly flashed through Si Yu's mind. Could it be that this was a mischievous person, one that didn't have any grievances or was used to teasing others?
"I'm telling you, it's not fun at all. I'm not afraid of you." How could he not be afraid? He was almost scared to death.
No matter what Si Yu said, he didn't make a sound. Si Yu was certain that there was something on the shelf, or else it wouldn't have made a sound. Damn it! If only my phone had a bit of a sound, I could turn on the flashlight and see what it was.
"Are you afraid of me, or are you afraid of something on my body that doesn't dare to show itself? If that's the case, you have to tell me what you look like first. If you look ugly, I don't want to meet you." Si Yu was talking to himself in the air.
But no matter what Si Yu said, there was no sound coming from the bookshelf. It would only occasionally make some noise, and it was not a response to Si Yu's words. Si Yu was puzzled. Could it be that she wasn't a ghost? What else could she be if she wasn't? Such a strange scene and phenomenon could only be explained in this way.
Si Yu thought that maybe the so-called ghost was just a soul, it might not know how to speak, but if he was standing here for so long, then any evil ghost like the one on TV would definitely eat him up. Since he didn't do anything to him, then it should be a good ghost, at the very least it wouldn't harm anyone.
He just wanted to sit down and have a good rest, and have a good night's sleep. Tonight, he was destined to be here, so if that was the case, then he would be at ease as he saw fit, since the ghost probably wouldn't hurt her. Thinking of this, Si Yu put the book in his hand to the side of the bookshelf and groped his way to sit down. He looked at the end of the shelf, where there was only one bookshelf between him and the ghost now, but he didn't know how Si Yu's sixth sense told her that the ghost shouldn't do anything to him.
"Where are you from? Why is it in the library? " Si Yu sat down and felt a little refreshed. He imagined how good it would be if he could be like the girls in the novels, knowing a ghost with super powers.
There were still no sounds coming from the other side of the bookshelf. Si Yu also didn't pay any attention to it and relied on her own thoughts to say that even if she couldn't get a response, she didn't care.
"You can't be a local ghost, right? Do you also like reading books?" But didn't they say that ghosts have super powers, so they still need to go to the library to read? " Si Yu suddenly became one hundred thousand.
"I think you were a good person when you were alive, but why didn't you say anything?" Si Yu muttered to himself.
"Forget it, you better not say anymore. I'm timid, my name is Zuo Siyu, why don't we make a friend, but you have to promise not to scare me with your ugly appearance." Si Yu said.
While talking, Si Yu felt sleepy and couldn't help but close her eyes. But before she fell asleep, she didn't forget to say good night to the ghost. She was afraid the ghost wouldn't understand and specifically spoke Mandarin, English and local language.
After Si Yu had fallen asleep, there was finally some movement from the bookshelf. A black shadow walked out from behind the curtains, looked at Si Yu and said, "What a fool." He then tried to open the window. Although there was a moon in the night, he could not see the shadow clearly. He could only see the shadow stepping on the window and following the drainpipe on the wall, directly climbing from the fifth floor to the first floor.
