Ghosts go the same way

The four big men had nothing to say about eating, drinking, and fighting, but Xiao Jiu was always distracted. On the one hand, he was still thinking about the landscape stone, the cry for help, and the reason why he hid on Tuesday at that time; I can't eat anything on Tuesday.

Finally satiated, everyone sat in their seats, drank hot soup and chatted.

"Boss, I'll just go back to the dormitory by myself in a while." The four people in their dormitory have different uses of their spare time. The boss uses it for part-time work, the second child uses it for "for the tribe!", and the third child is a bookworm who is a schoolmaster.In order to take care of Xiao Jiu, the three of them should have wasted a lot of time. Now that he has been discharged from the hospital, he naturally doesn't want to trouble them anymore.Besides, Xiao Jiu himself really needs some time to spend alone with Tuesday.

"Fourth, are you alright?" The boss swallowed the soup in his mouth and asked hesitantly.

"Brother, it's all right. I want to take a shower right now. I can only take cold water in the hospital." Xiao Jiu's single ward has a toilet but no bathroom, and hot water is only available in the hot water room downstairs, but That's for drinking.Xiao Jiu wanted to take a bath, so he had to go to the bathroom and use a basin of cold water to flush.

"Well, we won't go back with you." The boss is also straightforward. He takes care of others when it's time to take care of others, but he doesn't always act as a mother-in-law.

After sitting for another 10 minutes, the other three left one after another.Xiao Jiu, who said he wanted to go back, did not leave. Instead, he called the waiter over after he had already paid the bill.

"One more boiled fish, one tamales, and half a catty of three fresh dumplings."

"Take away or eat here?"

"take away."

"Okay, please wait a moment. But... can you come out of your private room?"

"Yes, no problem." Xiao Jiu nodded, followed the waiter and walked out, who knew that just as he walked out, he ran into an acquaintance head-on.

"Xiao Jiu! I heard that you are in the hospital, and I want to see you, but I have no time. Fortunately, you are fine, but when will you be discharged from the hospital? Why don't you tell me, let me pick you up?" The tone was extremely enthusiastic. As soon as she saw Xiao Jiu, the enthusiastic girl who kept jumping up and down was called Zhao Didi. The family environment is also good.At the beginning, the boys chased after this beautiful flower, but now, most of the boys keep her at a respectful distance.

Because Zhao Didi...she is so fake.

"Sorry, I forgot to notify you, monitor." Xiao Jiu smiled perfunctorily.

"By the way, have you eaten yet? If you haven't eaten, join us, just to congratulate you on your return from illness!"

"Thanks, I just finished eating." While shaking his head, Xiao Jiu noticed the ugly face behind Zhao Didi.And "that" Xiao Jiu also knew him, he was from the class next door, his name was Huang Guiyin, Xiao Jiu heard that he was pursuing Zhao Didi before he was hospitalized.

"It's okay, come in and have some drinks. It's good to chat if you don't eat." Zhao Didi still wanted to hold Xiao Jiu together.

"Here we come, Didi!" At this time, two girls and a boy came running over, also in their class, "What day is it today? Why do you come here every day to improve the food?"

"Don't you know? Today is Huang Guiyin's birthday, so he invited everyone to eat."

"I'm leaving, I wish you a happy birthday." If you don't leave now, when will you wait?Taking advantage of the chatter of the three girls, Xiao Jiu seized the time and slipped away.The three girls sighed behind him, but seeing that he really left without looking back, they didn't chase him any further.But Xiao Jiu didn't go out, he just hid beside the cashier, where everyone couldn't see.

"It seems that you are very popular?" While waiting for packing, Tuesday floated over, "Seven or eight out of ten girls who come and go will look at you, and the remaining two or three who didn't look at you don't know who they are. Yes, it must be because of bad eyesight. By the way, do you have a girlfriend?"

Xiao Jiu raised his eyebrows, took out the phone, and put it to his ear: "Hello?" He seemed to be talking to the person on the other side of the phone, "Why are you asking this?"

"When you are making out with your girlfriend, I will never peek. 20 meters is enough for me to find an obstacle to hide behind. I will also try not to listen to the movement of the two of you."

"Why do I feel that the more you say that, the more people will be suspicious?" Xiao Jiu's eyes were indeed filled with the words "doubt" very vividly.

"You are questioning my character..."

"Don't be so angry, I don't have a girlfriend, I don't need you to hide."

"No girlfriend? At your age and with such wealth, why don't you find a girlfriend?"

"Brother... why are you so concerned about this kind of thing all of a sudden?" Xiao Jiu was helpless.

"Because it's boring." Tuesday floated twice, "so I can't help but think wildly, and you are getting bolder and bolder, it's not fun to scare you. I promised you again, I won't scare others unless necessary ..."

"..." Xiao Jiu was in an extremely complicated mood, "Oh, by the way, I forgot about the business after you said that. What happened to the stone at the door?"

"I don't know exactly what's going on, it's just that rock, it makes me feel bad... After all, I'm also a new ghost." Tuesday spread his hands, and then suddenly smiled, "But it's also very interesting, I just found myself To be able to hide in your shadow."

"Huh? Didn't you hide on purpose?" Xiao Jiu was also taken aback.

"So, I'm also a new ghost..." Tuesday continued to laugh.

"Your boiled fish..." At this moment, Xiao Jiu's meal was ready.Picking up the bag containing the plastic lunch box, Xiao Jiu went out, got on the car and headed towards the dormitory.

"Can you hide in my shadow, and can you control my shadow?" After pedaling for more than ten meters, Xiao Jiu just finished asking and found that the ghost had disappeared.

"At that time, it was a bit like I was possessed by your shadow." Xiao Jiu was startled by the voice behind him, and when he turned his head, he realized that Tuesday was sitting in the back seat of his car.

"I'm KAO! I don't know how to carry people!" Xiao Jiu subconsciously called out, and the handlebars began to twist—he was considered an all-around athlete, but he couldn't learn how to carry people by bicycle, not even the lightest ones. .

"I'm KAO too! I'm a ghost!"

"Oh... that's right..." Xiao Jiu's handlebar became stable again...

"It's crowded in front." Almost at the gate of the teaching area in this direction, Xiao Jiu realized that there was a group of people blocking the gate, half of them were students, but many were workers, and there were also two cranes parked there.Like him, there are also many students who are returning to the dormitory at this time, slowly pushing their carts from here.

"What's this for?" asked someone next to him.

"I heard that the big locust tree is going to be cut down."

"What's the use of cutting down the tree? Besides, that tree is older than our school, right?"

"who knows?"

"I know, I heard that a fountain is going to be built there, and the locust tree blocks the place."

"The Forestry Bureau ordered it to be cut down? Someone took care of the clothes hanging on the tree outside our house."

"It costs money."

The students chattered and walked forward. From their direction, they couldn't see the big locust tree that was indeed older than their school.During the discussion, some people changed their target and wanted to take a last look at the big locust tree, so Xiao Jiu turned to look at Tuesday.

"I'll go take a look too."

Tuesday looked at him and nodded.

It was indeed a tall and strong tree.Even though the pagoda tree is full of dead branches in winter, one can imagine how it is full of branches and leaves in summer, and how sweet it should be under the tree when it is full of pagoda trees.

The sound of the chainsaw cutting the trees makes people feel disturbed, and the chainsaw drives the branches of the big tree to tremble, it is more like the giant tree is enduring the pain in silence.Most of the students watching were dissatisfied, but the students had no say in this matter.

The workers and a few teachers in charge began to clear the venue. Some bold students questioned the teachers loudly, but these teachers only got orders from their superiors, and they also had no right to speak.

Xiao Jiu turned around and left. Tuesday left the back seat and floated beside him: "Shall I scare those people and make them give up their jobs?"

"No, those people are just doing things with money, there's no need to embarrass them. And... did you find it strange just now?" Xiao Jiu frowned, obviously besides the sentimental feeling for the giant tree, there was nothing else he was struggling with. with him.

"strangeness?"

"That tree..." Xiao Jiu frowned even tighter, "It made me feel gloomy, and I felt like I could run as far as I could. But I really like staying under that tree. ..." Although I only spent one summer here, the big pagoda tree in the old campus, even on the hottest days, walking under the tree can still feel the refreshing shade.Many people like to read under the tree, and it is one of the seven best places for their school couple tryst.But I don't know why, when Xiao Jiu looked at the tree just now, he didn't like it at all.

"Strange."

"Ok?"

"I feel the same way you do."

"Why is it strange that I feel the same?"

"I'm a ghost. I should like places that you think are gloomy. But, looking at that locust tree, my instinct tells me to run as far as I can."

"..." One person and one ghost were silent for a while.

"Don't think about it, we still... oops! I forgot. Under the stone at the door of the dormitory, do you hear someone calling for help?"

"No."

"Then you..." Xiao Jiugang wanted to ask if he could sneak in on Tuesday, but then he thought, that place can't be approached even on Tuesday, what if he went in and couldn't get out?

——Xiao Jiu felt more and more that the place was used by his school to shock ghosts.

"Falled! It's here!" Behind them, the big locust tree groaned and fell to the ground, but the work of the engineering team was not finished, they still had to dig out the huge root system of the locust tree.
