Seeing me tossing and turning, Bai Xueying asked me what was wrong.

"I'm fine. I seem to be hallucinating. I keep getting the feeling that there's something strange going on in the corridor."

Bai Xueying shook her head, "That was not an illusion, it was really a female ghost calling you."

It must be Yuan Mingxue, since the night she died, this voice has been appearing in the corridor every night, shouting for me to repay her life.

"Do you have any ideas?"

"Nope."

"Alright, then go to sleep." I don't know if I need to sleep or not, but I'm really sleepy, and I can't keep my eyes open.

"Big sister, don't worry and sleep. I'll be watching over you."

I closed my eyes. I didn't see a pair of bloodthirsty eyes staring at me in the dark.

The next day I got up and found myself alone in the dormitory.

Liu Meng was usually later than me in anger, but she actually wasn't lying on the bed this morning. I was a little nervous and hurriedly ran out to look for him.

This made me extremely anxious, all the way until I found the lawn at the back of the building, where Yuan Mingxue died.

Liu Meng was lying on the ground. I thought that something had happened to her and hurriedly rushed over to shake her out of fear. If something were to happen to her too, I would be the only one left in the dorm.

Fortunately, she was all right. She had just fallen asleep on the grass.

"Liu Meng! Liu Meng! "

Liu Meng woke up in a daze and opened her eyes to look at her surroundings.

"Ling, where is this? Why am I lying here? " Liu Meng looked left and right, realizing that this was the place where Yuan Mingxue died from, and became even more afraid.

"I don't know what happened either. When I woke up in the morning and found that you weren't in bed, I came out to find you and found you sleeping here."

Liu Meng rubbed her forehead as she suddenly thought of something.

"Liu Meng, what's wrong?"

"I remember."

"What did you remember?"

Her expression almost scared me to death. I thought there was some horrible monster behind me.

"Last night, I dreamed that someone was looking for me, so I followed her. That person's face is very blurry, it seems like... It's Yuan Mingxue! Oh my god, Ling, could she have turned into a ghost and sought my life? "

Liu Meng's eyes were filled with fear as she trembled uncontrollably while hiding behind me.

"Don't let your thoughts run wild. Where can ghosts exist in this world?" I could only pat her hand to calm her agitated emotions. "Don't scare yourself. Maybe you suddenly came here from your sleepwalking. When you have time, I'll accompany you to the hospital to check your body."

I didn't want to burden her, so that's all I could say.

From the morning until now, Bai Xueying, who was by my side the entire time, actually did not appear, and went somewhere unknown.

No matter what, she is a ghost. Even if she is my dead sister, I can't completely put my trust in her.

I still hope she didn't do it.

After returning to the dorm, I accidentally found Bai Xueying curled up in a corner, looking very weak, as if she was injured.

"What's the matter with you?"

Fortunately Liu Meng went to wash up, otherwise, she would definitely be shocked when she saw me talking to a corner of the wall.

Bai Xueying opened her eyes and said in a very weak voice, "Big Sister, it's Yuan Mingxue … "It's her …"

Last night, Yuan Mingxue kept on calling out to me. I wasn't fooled, she just summoned Liu Meng and left. Bai Xueying found out and chased after him.

"I finally escaped with great difficulty …" Her eyes were dull as she leaned against the wall. "Sister, I need to rest for a while."

"How can I recuperate? What can I help you with?"

She shook her head. "I will seal myself in the urn until I recover. Elder sister, you have to be careful during this time."

My nose stung and tears almost fell from my eyes. She treated me so well, I actually suspected that Liu Meng was taken away by her just now.

Bai Xueying disappeared and Liu Meng came in.

"What are you squatting in the corner for?"

"Ah?" "It's fine."

I stood up, walked to the bed and sat down. Suddenly, a bold idea appeared in my mind.

"Liu Meng, you did it, didn't you?"

My words startled her. Liu Meng had a face full of astonishment, as she did not understand what I meant. "Ling, what are you saying?"

Looking at her reaction, I knew that I was being overly concerned, but my mind was in a mess right now. There were many things that I couldn't figure out.

"Nothing." I smiled. "There's no class today. I want to go home. Are you coming with me?"

"Alright!"

My house is in the suburbs, less than two hours drive from school.

My father died a long time ago, and now my mother is alone in the house. Her health is not good, she does odd jobs or does some manual work at home.

Father left a sum of money to meet the basic monthly living expenses, the surplus will depend on us to settle.

I took out my keys and went in. My mother was not at home, and the house was empty. The windows were open.

"Mom? "Mom?" It was almost noon, and my mother should be at home cooking at this hour.

I let Liu Meng sit on the sofa for a while and went out to look for her mother.

It was Liu Meng who answered the call, "Ling, auntie's phone is in the kitchen." She hesitated and said with a trembling voice, "Ling, come back quickly. I think your family... "There's a problem!"

"Alright." After hanging up, I hurried home.

When Liu Meng saw me, she immediately jumped towards me. "Ling, quickly look inside the fridge!"

My heart gave a jolt. I opened the refrigerator and saw that the fruits and vegetables inside were already beginning to rot. There was a pungent smell in the air.

What was going on? Had my mother been away for a long time? But the pots and pans in the kitchen were clean.

I started to worry, just as I was about to ask the neighbors, I saw my mother coming back, "Ling, you're back? Liu Meng also came? You guys go to the living room and watch TV. I'll cook for you right now. "

Mom acted as if she didn't see the mildew on those dishes. She took them out as usual and started cooking. My heart became heavier and heavier.

Mom seemed normal, but her mind seemed to have been affected by something.

"Mom, when did you buy this?"

My mom turned around and smiled. "Don't worry, they're all fresh. I bought them from the market two days ago."

My entire body was ice-cold, and a power that felt like it was going to burst out from my heart, but fortunately Liu Meng held onto my hand, telling me not to act rashly.

"Mom, have we had a guest recently?"

My mom thought about it. "No, what kind of guests do we have? I'm usually alone at home, so it's quite quiet. "
