Chapter 3 Brother, Save Me

After leaving the train station, Li Banfeng got on the subway.

It only takes half an hour to take a taxi from the school to the station.

It takes more than an hour to take the subway from the station back to the school.

Li Banfeng lives in the sixth dormitory, which is not close to the school gate. When he walked downstairs to the dormitory building, the gatekeeper looked at Li Banfeng, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You haven't left yet?"

Li Banfeng raised the corners of his mouth, showed a dull smile to the old man, and went straight up the stairs.

The school hasn't issued a notice to drive people away yet. Is it your business whether I leave or not?

All the graduates live on this floor. The building is silent. It is estimated that most people have left.

Li Banfeng went up to the sixth floor and entered the dormitory. The room was dark.

According to regulations, the lights in the dormitory should be turned off at eleven o'clock. It's not even nine o'clock now, and the old man has turned off the lights.

The dormitory manager is quite good at saving electricity for the school.

All the people in the same dormitory have left. Those who have found jobs have reported to work, and those who don't have jobs have gone home to squat.

He Jiaqing didn't find a job, so he took his girlfriend back home to squat.

Now Li Banfeng is the only one left in the dormitory.

Li Banfeng couldn't find a job because he had a history of mental illness.

He was also homeless, and it was impossible for him to move back to the welfare home.

How would he live in the future?

Still working as a bricklayer at the construction site?

Thinking of his bright future, Li Banfeng's brows relaxed, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he smiled.

This time he was emotionally unstable, and no one could be stable.

There is a job fair tomorrow, so I'll try my luck again.

Tonight, I'm the only one in the dormitory, at least I can get a good night's sleep.

Li Banfeng went to the public bathroom to take a cold shower, and was about to go to bed to play with his phone, when he suddenly remembered something and had to call He Jiaqing.

What if he really wet his pants?

What if he caught a cold because of wetting his pants, and then caught a cold, that would be so bad.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

He really fell asleep.

Li Banfeng called again, and the phone rang for a long time before it was finally picked up.

"Banfeng..." He Jiaqing's low and hoarse voice came from the phone, and it seemed that he had not woken up yet.

"Jiaqing, get up and pee!"

He Jiaqing's voice was very confused: "Pee? Where to pee? Where is this..."

Where is this?

You slept really soundly!

Li Banfeng didn't say much, hung up the phone, and groped his way up the ladder in the dark dormitory to get on the bed.

As soon as he climbed to the bed, Li Banfeng found that his quilt was bulging, and it seemed that there was a person wrapped inside.

There is a person wrapped in my quilt?

Is it really a person?

Li Banfeng lifted the quilt.

It's really a person!

The person was lying with his face facing the wall and his back to Li Banfeng, without any sound.

Who is sleeping on my bed?

A smell of alcohol came to my nose, and it seemed that this person was drunk.

Even if you are drunk, you can't just find a bed to sleep!

"Get up! Who are you? Get up!" Li Banfeng pushed the man, but the man didn't respond at all.

The curtains were not drawn, and the moonlight shone on the bed, and the man's blurry figure could be seen dimly.

Li Banfeng suddenly felt that the figure looked familiar.

He pulled the man's shoulders and turned him over. When he saw the man's face, Li Banfeng almost fell off the ladder.

It was He Jiaqing!

An hour and a half ago, Li Banfeng had just sent He Jiaqing away at the station.

And now he is sleeping on my bed!

"Jiaqing, what's wrong with you? Jiaqing, wake up..."

Pushing He Jiaqing and shaking him a few times, Li Banfeng suddenly retracted his hand.

No!

I just called He Jiaqing, wasn't he on the train? Shouldn't he have gone to pee?

It's He Jiaqing sleeping here, so who answered the phone just now?

The hairs on my body stood up one by one, and the originally stuffy dormitory suddenly became much fresher.

Is this really Jiaqing?

Li Banfeng turned on the flashlight on his phone and shone it on the face of the man on the bed for a long time.

It was really He Jiaqing!

This was his best friend in college, and Li Banfeng would never admit his mistake.

Plop!

Li Banfeng fell down the ladder and knocked over the trash can on the ground.

He stood up calmly, picked up the trash can, and quickly left the dormitory.

After closing the door and leaning against the wall of the corridor, Li Banfeng stood silently.

The voltage was not stable, and the dim lights in the corridor kept flickering.

Li Banfeng forced himself to calm down, took out his phone, and called He Jiaqing again.

The receiver was suffocatingly quiet. After more than ten seconds, a woman's voice came:

"Hello, the number you dialed cannot be connected for the time being."

After dialing several times in a row, the call was still not connected.

Call Lu Xiaolan?

Li Banfeng did not have Lu Xiaolan's phone number, and he did not have much contact with Lu Xiaolan.

There was no sound in the corridor, and it seemed that everyone on this floor had left.

Li Banfeng looked back at the door of the dormitory, thinking about what to do next.

Is the person lying on the bed really He Jiaqing?

Just now he firmly believed that he was not mistaken, but now he is a little uncertain.

Go back and take a look?

Are you crazy? If you want to go back, you must first go to another floor to find a helper!

Where can you find help now?

If it really doesn't work, call the old man who manages the dormitory up.

What's the point of calling him up? He can't help but make things more complicated.

It's better for me to go back and take a look myself!

Li Banfeng is arguing with himself.

According to normal people's thinking, he definitely can't go back to the dormitory alone now.

But Li Banfeng is not normal.

He went to the hospital for a check-up. He was not crazy, but his mind was not normal.

He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and showed a smile.

He was emotionally unstable, but he was in a good mood.

He used a special method to stabilize himself.

He gave himself a reasonable explanation for what happened just now.

Hallucination, it must be a hallucination!

I have a mental illness, and it is very reasonable to see hallucinations occasionally.

I will walk back to the dormitory like this now. As long as I stay awake, I will never see He Jiaqing again.

Li Banfeng opened the door with a smile and walked back.

Hallucination, all hallucinations.

The closer to the bed, the stronger the smell of alcohol, as if warning Li Banfeng that this is not a hallucination.

Li Banfeng climbed up the ladder again, raised his mobile phone, and looked at his bed.

He Jiaqing was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, and his face was pale.

Li Banfeng patted He Jiaqing's face, it was hot.

Try He Jiaqing's breath again, there is still breathing, but it is very weak and intermittent.

After getting down the ladder, Li Banfeng decisively called the emergency number.

After explaining the location and situation, Li Banfeng hung up the phone and waited quietly for the ambulance to arrive.

He stood under the bed, where He Jiaqing, who had come from nowhere, lay.

The two remained silent to each other in the same dormitory.

Click~

The message alert sound broke the silence in the dormitory.

It was sent by He Jiaqing.

He was sure that He Jiaqing in front of him could not send a message.

But he did receive the message from He Jiaqing.

The message only had four words.

"Banfeng, save me!"

PS: The doctor said that after writing this chapter, I can be discharged from the hospital.

I think he lied to me, so I decided to write another chapter.
