Teacher Zhang's words made Lin Mo a little surprised.
Originally, Lin Mo suspected that Liu Jia's disappearance might have something to do with Teacher Zhang, but looking at the teacher like this, he had no idea at all.
"You really don't know?"
"I really don't know." Teacher Zhang said calmly.
Lin Mo believes that Teacher Zhang usually makes some small moves when he lies. In the past, every time he said that the physical education teacher had something to do, during this Chinese class, Teacher Zhang would subconsciously pinch his nose.
Not this time.
It should be true.
"Teacher, why are you afraid of Liu Jia? Youdao never does anything bad in his life, and he is not afraid of ghosts knocking on his door in the middle of the night." Lin Mo decided to be on the safe side and question it again.
Teacher Zhang looked helpless: "You didn't see the way she looked when she came. It's too scary. Even a human being would be scared. What does this have to do with whether she does something bad or not?"
Lin Mo thought about it, and that was true.
Sometimes reasoning and fear are two different things.
After slowly chatting, Teacher Zhang's mood was obviously much stronger than at the beginning. It stands to reason that Teacher Zhang can return to normal when he wakes up next time. From this point of view, Lin Mo is also doing the work of a psychiatrist.
After all, dreams can reach people's hearts directly.
"Teacher, don't be afraid. If you really haven't done anything wrong, then there's nothing to be afraid of. Look at me, I never do anything wrong. I'm very courageous."
Lin Mo continued to enlighten.
Teacher Zhang laughed out loud at this time: "You can pull me down, you were not very courageous when you were in school."
Lin Mo was stunned when he heard this.
He looked at Teacher Zhang and said nothing.
"What, you forgot? When you were a freshman in high school, during evening self-study in winter, there was a sudden power outage. You went out to borrow a candle, but you were startled by the sweeping broom placed at the entrance of the corridor, and you sat down on the ground.
It was I who helped you up."
Lin Mo's eyes narrowed.
Teacher Zhang didn't notice Lin Mo's change and was still thinking about himself: "But having said that, at that angle and light, it was indeed easy to see that broom as a monster. Not to mention you, I was shocked."
"I don't remember!" Lin Mo said with a solemn expression.
"What?" Teacher Zhang didn't hear clearly and asked again.
Lin Mo didn't say anything more, but fell into deep thought.
Regarding what Teacher Zhang said, Lin Mo only remembered that there was indeed a power outage that night, and he did go to get a candle, but he did not remember being frightened by the shadow of the broom.
If someone else had said this, Lin Mo might not have cared about it, but Teacher Zhang was his class teacher at that time, so it was impossible to remember it wrong.
"That is to say, in my memory, not only is the memory about Liu Jia missing, but also the memory about fear is missing."
Lin Mo always thought that he was not afraid at all.
But today, he heard another answer from Teacher Zhang.
It's not that he doesn't have it, it's that he doesn't remember it at all.
It's like a complete set of cards, but two cards are missing. One is about a person; the other represents fear, and as the owner of this set of cards, I actually didn't notice that it was missing from the beginning to the end.
Two cards.
This is the weirdest thing.
Teacher Zhang obviously noticed Lin Mo's emotions, but Teacher Zhang did not ask further questions and continued to talk about the past. Of course, this was also good for Teacher Zhang himself.
It can help him recover, and now Teacher Zhang behaves the same as normal.
Not surprisingly, his mental illness was cured.
Lin Mo didn't mention the 'fear' thing again. The road has to be walked step by step, and the food has to be eaten bite by bite. Especially at this time, you can't take too big a step.
Before I knew it, several hours had passed.
Lin Mo looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
"Teacher Zhang, when does Liu Jia usually come?" Lin Mo couldn't help but ask, not to mention him, even Xiaohu breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
Somewhat lazy.
"It should be almost the same. She usually comes right after I go to bed at night. I don't know the details. She can come whenever she wants. I can't control it!"
Teacher Zhang was also a little nervous at this time.
But after several hours of counseling and chatting, he no longer collapsed.
Perhaps because Lin Mo was by his side, he was much more courageous than usual.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the corridor outside.
"Coming!"
Teacher Zhang skillfully shrank onto the bed, got under the quilt, and covered his head.
It's as if this quilt can resist all attacks.
Lin Mo nodded and gave Xiaohu a wink.
It turned out that the stupid tiger actually fell asleep. He went over and knocked on Xiaohu's head: "Be smart and guard the bedroom door. Don't let anyone in."
Lin Mo himself walked to the door.
He listened to the footsteps outside.
The footsteps were very light and slow, as if an elegant woman was walking slowly.
But in this environment, it seems a little weird.
Just the sound is scary.
Of course, Lin Mo didn't feel anything. At this time, he moved closer to the peephole and looked out.
There was no one outside, and the dim corridor lights flickered.
The footsteps can still be heard.
Lin Mo rubbed his eyes and looked again. Suddenly, there was a person standing outside the door.
It was a female student with short hair, wearing a student uniform, her back to the door, her hands hanging down, motionless.
At the same time, the footsteps also stopped.
"Teleport?" Lin Mo muttered. Just looking at his back, he looked quite similar to Liu Jia in the photo, because his body shape, hairstyle and clothes were all similar.
Lin Mo didn't hesitate and opened the door directly.
Is that right? You will know if you open the door and take a look.
As soon as the door opened, a gloomy air rushed in from the outside.
There was a layer of black air floating on the floor of the corridor, giving it a dreamy feeling.
The girl at the door didn't move, just standing with her back to the door.
Lin Mo remembered something and said, "Wait a minute!"
After saying that, he closed the door and walked back to the bedroom.
Teacher Zhang was trembling under the quilt. Lin Mo went over and patted him, which shocked him again.
"Lin Mo? You scared me to death. What's going on? Is she here? She's at the door, right?" After seeing clearly that it was Lin Mo, Teacher Zhang asked continuously.
Lin Mo nodded: "I'm here, but there is something I want to ask the teacher. Have you ever seen Liu Jia's face, that is, the front face?"
There is a reason for asking this.
Lin Mo knew very well that some nightmares were very disciplined. Just like the one outside, this time with his back to the door, then nine times out of ten, it was the same as before.
According to Teacher Zhang's courage, he probably wouldn't even dare to open the door, so Lin Mo asked.
"No!" Teacher Zhang shook his head directly: "But I can recognize it just by looking at the back. That's Liu Jia. And, you have to be careful, she can come in even if you don't open the door."
When Lin Mo heard this, he felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the room.
Turn around and look.
The Liu Jia with his back turned was standing in the living room.
Really came in.
Even if the door is closed, he can still come in. His ability is almost the same as that of Xiao Hei.
However, Lin Mo didn't feel any malice or resentment from this 'Liu Jia', so in fact, if you eliminate people's psychological fear of such ghosts, there is no need to worry at all, as long as you don't provoke her.
Whatever she wants to do, just let her do it. There will definitely be no danger.
In fact, this is also true. Teacher Zhang has been meeting every day for a year, isn't he living a good life?
But whether this girl in school uniform is Liu Jia or not, Lin Mo has to look at her front to confirm.
So he walked over, walked around to the front, got close to the other person, squatted down, and took a look.
