It was another tranquil night. The moonlight was thin in the sky, and not even a single speck of starlight could be seen.
The street lights emitted a faint yellow light as they gently sprinkled on the crisscrossing streets. A few cars drove by slowly. Very few people passed this complex intersection, and the cars had to be even more careful.
A tramp walked in from not too far away. Under the light of the street lamp, his disheveled appearance could be vaguely seen. His face was dirty and messy. His clothes were tattered, making him appear even thinner. He threw himself into the night wind and walked with heavy steps to a trash can. He opened the lid of the trash can and put his hands into it.
As if he hadn't found anything edible, his haggard face couldn't help but show a trace of disappointment.
Suddenly, a strange sound came from behind him. He was startled. He stood up straight and turned his head. His gaze fell on a dark alley behind him.
If he did not hear wrongly, the strange sound came from the alley.
Should I go and have a look? The tramp hesitated.
After the strange sound ended, the alley returned to its previous tranquility, as if the sound just now was just his hallucination. Perhaps he could have gotten some luck. With the same luck as before, the homeless man stepped into the depths of the alley.
The darkness of the night was as thick as ink. After the homeless person walked into the alley, it was as if his entire body had sunk into the endless ink.
The breath of the night seemed to hide a hint of fishy smell, destined to be an ominous night.
It was an unusual night. It was the third district of the male dorm in Shi Fan University.
He was currently in his second year of university, and his hometown was in a remote little mountain village. The children that came from the village were naturally honest and honest, plus the people from that little mountain village were generally very superstitious, many terrifying stories had been passed down since childhood, these stories were usually used by adults to scare children, and because of that, he was rather timid. Although he was close to twenty years old, he was still afraid of walking alone at night, and didn't even dare to go to the toilet alone in the middle of the night.
Moreover, every time he spoke, he would carry a strong rustic tone and was often mocked. Especially when he was speaking in class, he would always hear some students mumbling and laughing in his ears. He felt less and less confident about himself, which made him less and less talkative, more and more fond of being alone, with no close friends around him.
Not only that, but Xiao Nan was often bullied by his three roommates. The reason he went out to buy supper so late was because he was threatened by them.
Xiao Nan's secret was unintentionally discovered by Liu Zhang Qiang from the same dorm.
During the first year of school ceremony, Xiao Nan coincidentally saw Lan Bing, who was also a freshman.
Lan Bing was from the city, and her looks weren't very pretty. It was just that she had good looks, a gentle temperament, a simple face, and no makeup.
From the moment Xiao Nan, who had no experience in love, saw her, he fell in love with her for more than a year.
Lan Bing was from the History department, and his major was the Software Engineering Department. One was an engineering department, while the other was science. There was no intersection between the two, but he often couldn't help but go to the History class in order to take a few more glances at her.
Usually, after class, many girls would like to invite their best friend to go shopping, but it seemed that she was an exception. She liked to go to the library alone at the back of the school building, and Xiao Nan would also follow along. As long as he could see her a few times a day, even if he observed her from afar, it would be enough to make Xiao Nan feel better for an entire day.
Due to her cowardice and lack of self-confidence, in the course of her secret love for more than a year, Xiao Nan had never confessed, and she had never even given him a love letter.
Of course, although Lan Bing didn't belong to the cold side of the Goddess, her unique classical temperament attracted quite a few guys. She also received love letters from time to time, and at least one or two guys would confess to her every month — Xiao Nan had unintentionally seen these from some posts on the school forum. The key words he searched for on the forum were always "Lan Bing".
Those posts were probably posted by some gossipy girl who was of the same class as Lan Bing, and there was quite a bit of jealousy in the text. Every time she saw someone chasing after Lan Bing's post, she would feel uneasy, and even silently pray that it wouldn't succeed. Fortunately, every time he prayed, it was a success, and Lan Bing's thoughts seemed to be only on school and didn't have any plans to fall in love at school.
Although Xiao Nan knew he didn't have the courage to confess, he still couldn't help but secretly write love letters. In the past year, he had already written more than ten love letters.
Unfortunately, these love letters were found by Liu Zhang Qiang in the dorm. He even read them out to his other two roommates in the dorm in front of him. The ear-piercing taunts and mischievous taunts made Xiao Nan's face turn hot with embarrassment.
After reading the love letters, Liu Changqiang asked him to treat him to supper. Otherwise, he would post these love letters in the school building's bulletin board the next day.
Of course, Xiao Nan could only agree. If the other party really did so, he would not have the face to continue staying in the school.
As long as he passed through the dormitory of the fourth region, he would leave the campus after walking for a few hundred meters. However, every night, when he had something to do, he would deliberately take a detour, leaving the campus directly from the side of the first region's dormitory. Lan Bing's dorm was on the second floor, and she would sometimes sit on the balcony and blow the night breeze, listening to music.
That night was no exception. He purposely went around to the dorm 1 area, and when he was downstairs, he slightly raised his head. However, there didn't seem to be any trace of blue ice on the balcony.
In addition to the jeers and ridicule from his old friend, he felt even more disappointed.
"A toad wants to eat a swan!" I guess that's me! " With a bitter smile, he put his hands in his pockets and lowered his head. Facing the night wind, he walked out of the school gate.
There was a street on the right side of the campus for snacks. It was very lively at night. Many couples often held hands and wandered around this street.
Xiao Nan walked alone into the flow of couples holding hands. The more the laughter and chatter in his ears, the heavier his heart became.
"Boss, twenty kebabs of mutton skewers, three roasted chicken wings, one portion of eggplant and two portions of roasted fish."
Arriving at the barbecue stand, he instructed the barbecue shop owner to pay while he did so.
Barbecue was usually slow, and he had a lot of it, so Xiao Nan couldn't be bothered to wait any longer. After paying the bill, he told the boss to bring it back later.
As Xiao Nan walked deeper into the woods, she couldn't help but feel depressed and depressed. Coincidentally, there was a couple sitting under a big tree, hugging each other, and upon hearing the footsteps, the two of them simultaneously let go and looked towards Xiao Nan who was unintentionally disturbing them. They couldn't help but withdraw their hands, and then awkwardly turned their gazes away.
Xiao Nan scratched his head and laughed bitterly. He immediately turned around and thought to himself, don't ruin the good fortune of others.
Suddenly, a "Ya" sound came from behind him.
Xiao Nan stopped in his tracks out of curiosity and turned around. The girl looked as if she had been hit by something from a tree and had an unhappy expression.
"Darling, are you all right?"
The boy hurriedly grabbed the girl's shoulder with both hands and asked in a slightly anxious tone.
"What is this?" The girl looked at the object that fell to the ground and saw a bird's nest. This bird's nest was formed by a pile of withered yellow and white grass. It was at most the size of two fists, but there were also some white powdery things scattered around the nest that fell to the ground.
"Darling, you seem to have something white on your face." The boy carefully observed the girl's face.
"What the heck is this?" The girl looked disgusted as she quickly wiped her face with her hand. The white powder that had landed on her cheek was rubbed down her nose. After a breath's time, the powder was sucked into her mouth.
Immediately after, the girl stopped what she was doing and her expression seemed to freeze.
"What's the matter with you?" The boy was slightly frightened.
The girl's still appearance lasted less than five seconds. Then, she cast a somewhat sluggish gaze at the boy. "What do you want me to do?"
"What did you say? Your face just now was so scary. Are you alright?" The boy reached out to wipe the rest of the white powder off her face.
"I'm fine!" The girl suddenly grabbed the boy's hand. With a slightly flushed face, she shyly asked, "When you kissed me just now, didn't you tell me you were going to get a room?"
The boy was surprised, then lowered his head bashfully: "Yeah, but didn't you say no? You said the most we can do is kiss each other, we can't cross the line, otherwise we'll break up. "
The girl smiled, "Then do you want to get a room now?"
"…" The boy was at a loss as to what to do.
The girl put the boy's hand under her clothes. With an alluring smile, she said, "Tell me the truth."
When the boy's hand touched his girlfriend's soft chest, he immediately became excited. His body already had a normal reaction. He gritted his teeth and nodded. "Yes!" Very much. "
The girl blushed and said gently, "You can do whatever you want, I'll listen to you!"
With that, he leaned his head against the boy's chest.
"That's great! What you said is true. Let's go now!" The boy lost his composure and immediately whispered into his girlfriend's ear.
"En!" The girl agreed without hesitation.
Seeing this unbelievable scene, Xiao Nan seemed to have thought of something. After the couple left, he quickly walked over and bent down to pick up the unusual white bird nest.
There seemed to be quite a bit of white powder inside, and he extended a finger into it.
"What exactly is this thing?" "It's that magical?" He stared blankly at the white powder on his fingertips.
