This was the second time Xiao Qian stood in this university as a student.
Everywhere was packed with new students registering for the school year.
She stood on the grassy lawn of the campus, looking at the huge rock carved with the words ‘Beidou Normal University’, touching the red script on the stone with her fingers, evoking a sense of nostalgia.
Across her past and present lifetimes, she had been admitted to this university three times.
In her previous life, she was admitted twice. The first time, her Admission Notice was hidden and she missed the opportunity. The second time, with the help of a mysterious person, she reapplied and arrived two years later than she did this time.
The stone with the inscription still looked as it did in her past life.
Her major was the same, and the school was the same, but the students she met were from a different cohort.
After paying the tuition and collecting all kinds of materials, it was time for dormitory assignment, which was usually decided by the college. Being early, Xiao Qian still had some choice.
The so-called choice was whether to opt for a six-person room or a four-person room. The six-person rooms faced the sun while the four-person rooms were north-facing. The four-person rooms were more expensive, but as the university was a top one domestically, the conditions were quite decent. They had their own bathrooms, washbasins, 200 mins prepaid phone cards, bunk beds, but no internet access yet as computers wouldn’t become common until two years later.
Xiao Qian, a woman who hated interacting with others, actually preferred a single room, but given the current conditions, this was certainly not possible. The school policy was that students must live on campus until the second year, so she could only choose a four-person room.
In her previous life, when Xiao Qian was admitted, the new dormitory building had already been built, much different from the old one she was in now, which reminded her of something.
There was a legend about this old dormitory building. Supposedly, a female student would commit suicide by jumping off the building the following year. This kind of legendary tragedy was not uncommon in universities. By the time Xiao Qian enrolled a year later, this incident had already become one of the campus ghost stories.
Of course, there were no real ghosts. It was just students looking for something interesting to pass the time.
But that suicide girl should be in the same year as her now. What was her name…
Xiao Qian stood in front of the dormitory, frowning and trying to recall. The girl seemed to share the same major as her.
Dong…what was it? The surname was very distinct. Xiao Qian had a good memory and had a vague impression of it.
Rumor had it that after the girl jumped from the building, she would float around the stairway of the old dormitory building in a white dress with long hair during full moon nights…
Of course, this was pure nonsense. It was told in all colors and tones, but no one had actually seen it. That was how university folklore was. Without a top ten ghost stories, it would be shameful to say the school had a long history.
“Dong Yi! Walk slower!”
Yes! That was the name! Xiao Qian rubbed her temples and turned to see a tall girl walking in front of her. The girl was wearing a long white dress, followed by a shorter man who looked like he was in his thirties.
“Dong Yi, why are you walking so fast? I almost couldn’t catch up.” The man accidentally bumped into Chen Chao, who was helping Xiao Qian carry her luggage, and gave him an apologetic smile. Chen Chao waved his hand, indicating that it was fine.
Xiao Qian sighed silently. So this was the girl who would commit suicide, the girl who would top the campus ghost stories rankings in the future.
Unexpectedly, on her first day of school, she’d already run into a character from the ghost stories. Of course, Dong Yi hadn’t jumped off the building yet. From Xiao Qian’s observation, this girl had a cool and aloof demeanor, rarely showing any expression on her face and looking somewhat arrogant. The man who was helping her carry luggage was chattering all the way, but she didn’t say a word.
“Qian’er, do you know her?” Seeing Xiao Qian staring at the girl, Chen Chao couldn’t help but ask.
“Nothing…” Xiao Qian stopped abruptly and, speechless, watched the girl, who would later be ranked in the top three of the top ten ghost stories, enter Dormitory 4-444.
Yes, this bizarre room number was Xiao Qian’s dormitory.
Why such a strange name? Dormitory numbers were usually determined by the building number, floor number, and room number. As Xiao Qian had chosen the four-person room, this was the only one left. Building 4, Floor 4, Room 44, 4444-
Given this peculiar name and the future suicide girl as her roommate, Xiao Qian reckoned her university life would probably be lively.
When Xiao Qian and Chen Chao entered Dormitory 4444, apart from the eerie girl, Dong Yi, there were a couple of people. A petite girl, trying to instruct others to help her make her bed.
As soon as Xiao Qian saw the girl’s face, she twitched at the corners of her mouth.
“Chao…”
“What’s up, Qian’er?”
“Would it be possible for us to change the dormitory now?”
Knowing her roommates were these people, she would rather stay in a hectic six-person room!
Chen Chao looked at Xiao Qian in confusion, not quite understanding why she wanted to change as soon as she entered the room.
“I don’t think so, right? Didn’t they say when we registered that once it is assigned, you can’t change? If you want to adjust, you have to wait until next semester.”
A chill swept through Xiao Qian’s heart. What kind of luck was this?
4444, indeed an unlucky number!
Not only would she share the same dormitory room with a future suicide girl, but this petite girl also wasn’t easy to get along with!
Even though the world was big, sometimes it was small.
She had started university two years earlier than in her previous life. Logically, the chances of meeting people she knew from her previous life should be low as they would still be high school students in this timeline.
But
in such a large campus, starting school two years early, with four people in one dormitory, she had already met two familiar faces!
The tall girl with a cool, expressionless face, was the future suicide girl.
This petite girl with the chubby face, was Xiao Qian’s future patient…
Xiao Qian remembered clearly that when she treated Shi Yu, she was already a top psychologist in the country.
Shi Yu left a deep impression on Xiao Qian, not only because she was the heiress of the Shi Family Pharmaceutical, but also because after treating her three times, the Shi Family paid her 5 million. That was a large sum of money.
However, Xiao Qian was conflicted because she didn’t know whether she earned the 5 million conscientiously.
Because what Shi Yu had was a very rare psychological disorder.
Even worldwide, not many people suffered from this mental illness.
This rare psychological disorder was known as Dissociative Fugue Disorder, which simply put, was refusing to acknowledge one’s identity, creating a false identity for oneself, living with this nonexistent identity, and completely forgetting who one was, what one’s name was, what one had done, and what experiences one had.
And the reason Xiao Qian felt guilty about taking 5 million from them was that she had treated Shi Yu.
She cured Shi Yu, awakening her repressed memories, but these memories ended up causing this girl to wither away….
