Chapter 36 Chapter two

After graduating from a university in X City, she finally accepted the fact that graduation equals unemployment, wandering and lost in the huge labyrinth of job hunting, spent two dim years. Due to the divorce of her parents, the family became broken, and the accident two years ago, the family could no longer provide her with any support. She had to rely on herself, changed many jobs intermittently, and lived a hard life. Finally, at the beginning of this year, she found a job in a newly built department store in a certain district of X city, selling cosmetics. City X is a small southern city with a rich nightlife, so shops are usually open until very late.Tong Fei was on the night shift, and it was already past ten o'clock when she got off work. After returning home, she took a shower and went to bed immediately.Because she still has a job as a waiter in the restaurant the next day, she can't stay up late.

The house she rents is not far from the urban area. It is a suburban farmer's house, and the rent is cheap. The rooms in the entire building are rented out to migrant workers, regardless of gender.It took her a lot of time and effort to find this house that was close to her work place and the price was not too outrageous, so she didn't care about the mixed tenants inside. In order to pay the rent, she sold her beloved "Little Mulan".Anyway, the place where I live is close to the city, just walk.But strictly speaking, the so-called closeness refers to the straight-line distance. If you walk along the road, you have to go around to reach the urban area. It is very time-consuming without transportation.

But what Tong Fei likes is the back of the house, which is a barren field ridge and woodland. As long as you cross this wasteland, you can go to the urban area from the small road, which is also convenient. This is her daily commute. It was a rather sweltering night, and Tong Fei was walking on the empty path alone with her bag. It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, and she dragged her tired body, walking on the dark path.For some reason, her head hurts very much, and this pain has been going on for several days. There was an unavoidable sadness in her heart. To be honest, she didn't like this route very much.Desolate, dark, frightening, and dangerous, let alone a girl, even a man would try to avoid walking this way.Every time she was worried, she used the fastest speed to cross this wasteland like a dead city.Every time at this time, she couldn't help complaining why her life was so hard, it was as long as the night and dull.

In addition to the dark forest and wasteland in front of my eyes, occasionally there will be a few rickety wooden houses, looming in the forest.But she never took a second look, and always walked quickly, not daring to stay for a moment. With the moonlight and the distant lights, she could barely make out the outline of the path and the woods.There is a flashlight in her bag at all times, in case there is no light source, she can take it out for emergency. Such a "dark" life lasted for half a year. Tong Fei has gradually become numb to the fear of the dark route back home, and has even learned to have fun while suffering.

However, at this moment, the corners of her eyes suddenly caught sight of a certain dark corner in front of her, and a gossamer-like halo flashed unexpectedly. Strange, why is there light here?As far as she knew, the wasteland was almost uninhabited. She rubbed her eyes and continued walking, her eyes looking in the direction of the light.In an instant, the unstoppable fear rose rapidly from the bottom of my heart. In the woodland on the right, a long-haired woman can be seen from the window facing Tong Fei in a wooden house hidden among the dense foliage. The woman faced the window sideways, lowered her head slightly, and exuded a sense of sadness.Perhaps because of the lack of light, the entire silhouette is light and floating, just like...

ghost!Tong Fei gasped. I don't know if it was too courageous, or because her whole body was stiff due to excessive fright, but she didn't run wildly, but stood there, motionless. After staring at it for a full five minutes, Tong Fei suddenly came to her senses and ran away from the scene like crazy.Back in her room, she didn't even take a shower, and hid directly in bed, the image of the long-haired woman kept playing in her mind.Her head hurt more and more, and she couldn't sleep for a long time.
