Chapter 6 Alienation
roommates are just roommates
The other two bottles scattered on the ground are bathroom cleaner and alcohol. It seems that his new roommates are more clean freaks, at least they attach great importance to the cleaning of the bathroom.
Could it be that the can of KY just now was also used to clean the bathroom?
Yu Zhong really can't imagine how to use this thing, it will inevitably make people think wrong when it is placed in the bathroom.
Confessing for a few seconds for his previous crankiness, he turned on the shower and started lathering with the bath pod.The hot water poured down from the top of the head along the nozzle, and rushed over the body. The cold fragrance left in the air was gradually eroded by the peach fragrance of Dove bath liquid. When the water stopped, there was nothing left up.
After cleaning up the bathing area, Yu Zhong went to the sink to dry his hair.The hair dryer looked like it hadn't been used, and the cords were neatly tied into a bundle with black Velcro.Yu Zhong hesitated for a moment, then opened the bathroom and called Chen Zhihao's name.
"Chen Zhihao, can I use the hair dryer in the bathroom?"
"It works, it comes with the dormitory. Brother Chen and I are not used to using a hair dryer so we haven't touched it before." Chen Zhihao seemed to be playing a game without raising his head.
"Oh good." Yu Zhong retracted his head.
He dried his hands with a towel, peeled off the Velcro and untied the threads.The boy's eyelashes in the mirror looked extremely thick and black because they were wet, which made the clear eyes more black and white.
There was an inconspicuous scar on his forehead, but when he was in elementary and junior high school, that scar was so terrifying that Yu Zhong got into the habit of wearing bangs.His hair is growing very fast, it has only been more than a month since the last trim, and the bangs have already grown beyond his eyebrows, Yu Zhong fiddled with his hair while blowing, nonchalantly thinking about getting a haircut next week.
After blowing his hair, Yu Zhong picked up the black-rimmed glasses on the shelf, washed and dried them, and put them back on the bridge of his nose.
City C was still very hot in September, Chen Zhihao turned on the air conditioner in the dormitory quite low, and Yu Zhong felt a little cold when he came out of the bathroom.He dug out a thin coat from the closet and put it on, sat back in front of the computer and started making the PPT for tomorrow night's pre.
Before that, he glanced at QQ.
The messages sent by the harasser were close to 99+, probably because Yu Zhong took the initiative to add him as a friend to encourage this person, and he didn't bother to use the mailbox to continue harassing.
Arrsss: Who is the boy walking with you today?
Arrsss: Why do you still live together?
Arrsss: Move out, if you don't want to piss me off.
Who does this person think he is?
Yu Zhong laughed angrily at the tone of the order.
It seemed the man was trying to follow him.
But Yu Zhong was not afraid.He will find this man and deliver him to the oranges with his own hands.
He had watched the American TV series "Criminal Minds" before, and was educated about "Stalking (stalking)".Like this one, they are probably the kind of incompetent suitors who hope to start a relationship with the pursued, but cannot achieve their goals due to their own problems.The most dangerous is the predatory stalker, this kind of person is almost connected with sexual assault cases, the stalking and harassment in the early stage are all preparations for the crime in the later stage, but Yu Zhong doesn't take it seriously.
He didn't think the other party could have the guts.
And this person probably has... a deep misunderstanding of him.
"Weak" and "deer"?
Is it a judgment made easily just by looking at his appearance?
Yu Zhong calmly typed the next line and sent it.
Belgian Melon King: Are you following me?
The person on the other side seemed to be standing in front of the phone all the time, and it started to display "the other party is typing" after sending it.
Arrsss: [kiss] Yes.
Arrsss: As I said, I've been watching you.
Arrsss: The light in your room is still on, when are you going to sleep?
Yu Zhong reflexively glanced towards the balcony.There is also a dormitory building opposite them, with little lights, blurring into halos in the rainy night.
Suppressing the resentment in his heart, Yu Zhong pretended to be terrified: You are so disgusting! !Stop following me! !what do you want !
Sure enough, the opposite party was a little smug, and seemed very satisfied with his reaction.
Arrsss: I said, all I want is you [kiss];
Belgian Melon King: Get out! !
After posting this, Yu Zhong calmly returned to the PPT interface to continue making. After he finished the PPT, he clicked on station B and watched the movie leisurely. Dynamics visible to one person.
[It’s raining so hard, I have to go to the North District Auditorium alone to do a pre at [-]:[-] tomorrow night (Maomao’s heart is tired)]
Looking at the access reminder that popped up in an instant, the profile picture of "Anan" appeared boldly in the notification bar, and a small smile appeared on Yu Zhong's lips.
I don't know if this "fish" can be caught by him tomorrow.
It was getting late, Yu Zhong washed up and climbed into bed.Seeing that he was going to sleep, Chen Zhihao on the side whispered to his teammates, then turned off the headlights, and started to play games silently.
Qi Yuechen's room remained silent.
All is quiet again.
In the dark, the sound of the rain outside the house became extra clear, rustling and rhythmic, mixed with the sound of wind blowing leaves, just like AR.
When Yu Zhong was woken up by the birdsong outside the window, he realized that he had slept for nine hours, and it was already 08:30.
The bedroom was as quiet as before falling asleep last night.The bed curtain outside Chen Zhihao's window was closed, and snoring could be heard faintly. Yu Zhong rubbed his sleepy eyes, sat on the bed for a few seconds, then slowly put on his clothes, folded the quilt softly, and made no sound climbed out of bed.
He took the toothbrush cup and walked towards the bathroom. When he passed by Qi Yuechen's room, he glanced there and found that the door was open and there was no one in it.
Not here.
A faint sense of loss rose in Yu Zhong's heart.
After washing up, he packed his schoolbag and prepared to go to the cafeteria to have breakfast, then go to the student service center to submit some follow-up forms for changing majors, and get rid of all the material work before the start of school.
The campus of University A is huge, and the cafeteria is also widely distributed. There is a cafeteria near the dormitory area in their corner, and the breakfast is quite rich.
Yu Zhong brushed a bowl of tofu nao, poured a small spoonful of oil into it, poured chili on it, and took a bottle of carrot juice, sat down at a random place, scooped up tofu nao one spoon at a time, and ate it in a leisurely manner .
"Student, is there anyone here?" Two girls with light makeup walked up to him with trays and asked.
Yu Zhong put down the spoon and shook his head.
The position he made was diagonally opposite the exit, and he could see the scenery outside the door as soon as he raised his head. Yu Zhong glanced casually, and his eyes stayed on one point.
"Classmate," the girl sitting next to him suddenly started calling him again, "Can you add a WeChat?"
Yu Zhong didn't eat anymore, and started to pack his things quickly, his eyes still flicked to that spot from time to time, he nodded hastily and took out his phone before he heard the words.
"Sweep me."
After adding WeChat, Yu Zhong hurriedly picked up the tray and walked quickly to the recycling area at the door, put down the things and ran out of the cafeteria.
It began to rain lightly outside again, like mist and smoke, which was barely bearable without an umbrella.Yu Zhong's glasses were soon covered with a fine layer of water droplets. After running for a small distance, he stopped abruptly and walked over slowly.
"Good morning."
Qi Yuechen stood under the eaves, facing him sideways, wearing a high-necked black shirt with an ascetic aesthetic.
He glanced at Yu Zhong, lifted his lips slightly, "Morning."
Yu Zhong laughed, "You woke up so early. Where are you going?"
"I have something to go to Jue Ming Pagoda."
"What a coincidence," Yu Zhong was a little happy, because the building of the Student Service Center is near the Jueming Tower, "Let's go together, there are quite a few shared bicycles parked here."
Qi Yuechen's tone was slightly apologetic, "I'm sorry, I'll wait for someone. You go first."
Yu Zhong, who was taking out his phone to scan the code to unlock the lock, stopped his hands.He raised his head and glanced at Qi Yuechen, no matter how dull he was, he could still see the obvious alienation and indifference from the other party's polite attitude.
"Okay, then I'll go first." Yu Zhong smiled and waved away.
After turning around, the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a slightly frustrated face.
Yes, college classmates are just college classmates, and roommates are just roommates.
It's not like high school, if you talk casually, you can hook up with each other the next day and become close buddies.
A proper sense of distance should be maintained, anyway, it would be good if there were no conflicts in the dormitory.
However, the two of them talked so much last night, coupled with their identities as old classmates in high school, Yu Zhong thought that the two of them could become friends because of this.
He sighed, got on the shared bicycle and drove out of the sidewalk.
When passing by the place just now, Yu Zhong saw a black car coming from nowhere by the side of the road, but he didn't see the license plate clearly, anyway, he didn't look like an ordinary car from the lines and chassis.Qi Yuechen was chatting and laughing with a strange boy, with a relaxed expression on his face that he had never seen before, and he was bending over to help the boy open the car door.
The disappointment I felt when I saw the other party's empty room in the morning resurfaced and expanded.
Yu Zhong turned his face away, stepped on the pedal a few times, and began to increase the speed of the car.
