    Chapter 4 Reincarnation Sundial Three...

    After all, the old campus of Longcheng University was actually built at the time of the Republic of China. It has a history of a hundred years. The ancient trees on the campus can almost cover the sky and the sun. The unique Western style of the district looks old and inhuman.

    Only this office building near the west gate was built in recent years, and the floors are relatively high. Through the layers of trees, it stands out in an old building, and it looks like a nondescript area. Madara, destroying the aura of the entire campus.

    Shen Wei said he didn't know the student, so he offered to take them to the college to ask.

    But this brand-new academy building made Zhao Yunlan's eyelids jump. There were eighteen floors in this building, and he didn't have to count it to know.

    Earlier, when some real estate developers built residential buildings, they wanted to avoid the number of eighteen floors, but later the housing price soared, and there were more and more developers. Places are limited in height. In order to make a profit, most of them are built as high as they can, and sold as much as they can. Therefore, this old emphasis on "feudal superstition" has gradually disappeared.

    Only those who know what to do can see at a glance that something is wrong.

    I don't know if it was because the air conditioner was turned on. As soon as entered the door of the acade office building, a cool wind rushed towards face. The Daqing cat lying on Zhao Yunlan's shoulder shivered, and its sharp claws pierced from the pads. It stretched out and hooked the man's shirt tightly.

    "That classmate's student card says the Department of Mathematics, and the Faculty Office of the Department of Mathematics is on the top floor." Shen Wei took two people to the elevator and pressed the floor.

    Zhao Yunlan suddenly asked him, "Isn't Professor Shen curious about what happened? Ordinary people always ask a few more questions when they encounter this kind of thing."

    Shen Wei lowered his head slightly and said softly, "The dead are the bigger ones. I will help you investigate the case within my ability. You only need to know about other things. It doesn't matter whether I know or not."

    Zhao Yunlan put his palm on the black cat's back, and let it run down the hair at once: "There are not many good citizens as enthusiastic as Professor Shen, my family in Daqing has never been relatives, I think they are very close to you. ."

    Shen Wei smiled gently: "It should be."

    Zhao Yunlan closed his mouth for a while, and his eyes flashed. He felt that something was wrong with Shen Wei. Except for the inadvertent glance at the beginning, Professor Shen seemed to be avoiding his gaze.

    When the elevator reached the fourth floor, it suddenly trembled and stopped without warning. The light on the top seemed to be in poor contact and went off twice. Guo Changcheng looked up at Zhao Yunlan in panic, but the man didn't know he was nervous. What's the matter, he didn't even blink his eyes, he was still studying Shen Wei thoughtfully.

    I just heard a male voice from the elevator: "Mr. Shen, why are you going to the eighteenth floor?"

    Shen Wei said without changing his face: "There was an accident in the school. These two are public security officers. I will take them to the mathematics department to find out the situation."

    "Oh," the voice seemed to be a little sluggish, and it took a long while to answer, and then continued in that faint, slow pace, "Okay, please pay attention to safety."

    His voice just fell, and the elevator returned to normal again, the lights were on, and the elevator stuck in the middle continued to go up after a "squeak"... as if nothing had happened.

    "Scared?" Shen Wei turned around, still just looking at Guo Great Wall, avoiding Zhao Yunlan while catching traces, and explaining with a smile, "Just now, that should have been the security guard of the building. Last semester, a student jumped from the roof of the building. Going down and committing suicide, after that, except for the mathematics department, if anyone else goes up to the top floor for no reason, the security guard will stop the elevator and ask another question, so as to avoid such a thing from happening again.”

    Guo Changcheng breathed a sigh of relief, smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Oh...oh, it was the security guard, I thought it was..."

    "A supernatural event?" Shen Wei asked with a half-smile.

    The dishes on Guo Great Wall's face flooded into the sea.

    Zhao Yunlan frowned.

    This feng shui is extremely bad for the college, and the professor who has never dared to look at him is so strange.

    Even the person who dutifully checked every person who went to the top might not be a... "security guard".

    Wandering all the way to the top of the building, the entire eighteenth floor was empty, not even a mosquito gecko made a home here, it was cold and wet.

    Zhao Yunlan couldn't help but sneezed.

    Shen Wei immediately turned sideways and asked, "Have you caught a cold?"

    Even if he doesn't have a line of sight with anyone, this question still seems very sincere.

    Perhaps because of his personal temperament, Professor Shen has a "gentleman's side" smell when he bows his head and nods his head. Even if his eyes float a little unnaturally when talking to Zhao Yunlan, it is rare that it does not make people feel uncomfortable. .

    Zhao Yunlan rubbed his nose: "No, I just felt that as soon as I entered this corridor, I could smell the kind of... special unlucky smell of math homework that the stock manager couldn't finish."

    Shen Wei cooperatively rolled his eyes and gave him a gentle and restrained smile.

    "Don't laugh." Zhao Yunlan joked, "Professor Shen, let me tell you the truth, when I was studying, the teacher was my natural enemy. Our head teacher predicted at the beginning that I would definitely become a rascal when I grew up. I became a people's policeman when I was a big student. When I met him last time at the school celebration, I just wanted to show off my strength, guess what he said?"

    Shen Wei pretended to listen carefully: "What?"

    "That old angry young man said, "Zhao classmate, look, I'm right, you've grown into a standard hooligan in uniform."

    Zhao Yunlan has been in contact with the three teachings and nine streams all the year round, and he has to be smooth and smooth with one mouth. Usually, a few words can make people feel intimacy. Even Guo Changcheng, who is like a quail, seems to have a little resonance with him on the issue of "mathematics homework". The posture of walking behind them also looked a little human.

    But this Shen Wei... The way he listened to Zhao Yunlan's speech made Zhao Yunlan have an illusion, as if he was not talking nonsense in a car full of fire, but saying that kind of thing in some foreign language that defies the sky. The difficult listening and translation questions of "read only once", each word is cherished, and Professor Shen is reluctant to miss half a word.

    But he really "listened his ears", he just didn't dare to look up at himself. The smile on his face looked gentle and elegant at first, but after a long time, he could find that it was very stereotyped, like it was painted on his face.

    Zhao Yunlan almost suspected that his face was about to freeze with laughter.

    The three of them chatted and walked like this, the footsteps knocked on the floor one after another, and the echoes kept staggering in the corridor. The man's laughter was obscured by the man's laughter...the fourth person who had mixed in in the middle. footsteps.

    Quietly, rustling, like the sound of soft-soled cloth shoes being dragged on the ground.

    The college office building is in the architectural style of a large tower. The so-called "tower", generally speaking, is a tall and thin building with the elevator in the middle, and the corridor circles around the "big tower" in the middle after going up.

    As they walked forward, Guo Great Wall inadvertently noticed that Zhao Yunlan's watch was undergoing some kind of peculiar change. The lighter rose red began to spread out, circle after circle, like dàng ripples in the water, which made his men's watch look almost like an expensive piece of craftsmanship, and the metal strap buckled in the man's pale. On the slightly thin wrist, there is an indescribable sense of eerie luxury.

    Guo Great Wall hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Zhao... Zhao Chu, your watch..."

    "What's wrong? It turned red?" Zhao Yunlan, who was walking in front, turned around with his characteristic smirk, "Do you know why?"

    Guo Great Wall shook his head honestly.

    Zhao Yunlan said with a smile: "Li Gui loves to wear red, I think the feng shui of this building is not good, maybe there is a place to hide dirt, maybe the shadow of something casts her on it..."

    Guo Changcheng's face suddenly turned pale. He instinctively followed Zhao Yunlan's words and glanced at his dial. This time, he saw an old man on the glass——she...medium build, slightly fat, dressed in He was dressed in black and looked at him blankly!

    Guo Changcheng's footsteps stopped.

    However, Zhao Yunlan laughed as if he didn't see anything, and turned a small button on the side of the dial, and a cloud of mist suddenly appeared on the dial, which instantly diluted the redness just now, and when he looked again, it was still the same. Gāngān's clean male watch, the style is quite satisfactory, neither the strange red nor the reflective female ghost.

    "Have you ever seen a mouse wheel that changes color? One reason, this stupid boy, just give it a hammer." Zhao Yunlan scolded the intern, and the next second, he suddenly turned to Shen Wei without warning, "Professor Shen It’s Kochi, who pays attention to materialism, so he definitely doesn’t believe in such monstrous things, right?”

    Shen Wei pushed up his glasses, avoided his gaze again, and said slowly: "The ancients said, 'Beyond Liuhe, sages don't speak.' No one can tell whether they have it or not. There is, there is no, and there is no need for everyone to pursue it too much. 'Don't ask the people and ask the ghosts and gods', that was a thing of the old days, if people didn't even understand their own affairs, they still had time to take care of the world's problems. No ghosts and gods, isn't it absurd?"

    These words are full of literati flavor, but they seem to be wrong. The answer is wrong. Seeing that the temptation failed, Zhao Yunlan smiled and opened the topic casually: "Mr. Shen teaches liberal arts?"

    "Well, I take college Chinese and some liberal arts electives."

    "No wonder - but I heard from an acquaintance of gān real estate that it is rare for newly built residential buildings to do this. Such towers are usually commercial office buildings with a height of more than 100 meters. It is difficult to clean, and then there are It is not transparent, the lighting is not easy to handle, and it is not very comfortable to live in. I think that's what 'bad feng shui' means." Zhao Yunlan took out the cigarette case from his arms and shook it, "Oh yes, this is No smoking? Do you mind?"

    Shen Wei shook his head, Zhao Yunlan put one hand in his pocket, and with a slight shake of the other hand, he took out a cigarette, lowered his eyes slightly, and after a while, he let out a puff of white smoke. , looks like an old smoking gun.

    Shen Wei, who seemed to have made up his mind to ignore him to the end, finally couldn't help frowning: "Tobacco and alcohol are not good for your health. Officer Zhao is so young, it's better to be a little more restrained."

    Zhao Yunlan smiled and did not speak up immediately. His face was hidden behind a cloud of smoke, making it difficult to see his expression. The finely ash fell from the butt of the cigarette, whether it was intentional or unintentional, and some fell to Shen Wei. in the shadow.

    Zhao Yunlan lowered his eyes, swept his eyes from the ground, and then drew the smoke with his hands: "Gān we are in this business, sometimes day and night, and living habits are really not easy and not good."

    Shen Wei seemed to want to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back abruptly. After a while, he frowned and changed the subject slightly bluntly: "The departments on the old campus were originally There aren’t many, and there aren’t that many teachers. On the 18th floor, there are only a few offices facing south, and most of the other rooms are vacant, so you can just turn around here.”

    It's easy to grow mold and moss in deserted corners, but also... other things.

    For some unknown purpose, the corners of the corridors in this building are not rounded corners, close to right angles. The emergent corners blocked the line of sight, and if two people happened to be facing each other, they could easily collide with each other.

    Shen Wei led the way, Zhao Yunlan hugged the cat and followed him closely, Guo Changcheng walked at the back, as they approached the corner little by little, Guo Changcheng suddenly had a feeling, as if there was something in the shadow Something popped out of nowhere. At this moment, he couldn't listen to the conversation of the other two at all, and just stared at the corner - the dim light coming in from the window with a very different angle, and pulled the shadow of the window lattice to the ground. There created a flickering world.

    Then, Guo Great Wall discovered that something was moving on the edge of the shadow...

    It was as if someone was hiding there with a sneaky head, and then a... what appeared to be a hand!
