Chapter 1, The Mistaken Kiss

I heard this sound, and then I felt the surroundings instantly brighten as if someone had turned on the lights

I stood in front of the washstand and saw my own reflection

I am a bit dazed, glancing at the literary master and then at the side. I am sleeping on the upper bunk, yet now I find myself standing on the ground, and I am only wearing shorts

However, there is no other explanation for this matter at present. I could only muster a faint smile, apologized to the literary master, and promised to treat him to a meal. Only then did this fellow return to bed to sleep.

I looked like a literary master and immediately replied, "Nonsense! Of course, I am awake! Rat, what happened to me just now? Why is there blood all over my face and in my mouth?"

The cries of anguish from Wenhao and me woke up the other residents in the dormitory. They cursed and opened their eyes briefly, asking what was going on

Linzi, this person's breathing is becoming weaker and weaker. My close friend Wenhao's expression darkened as he glanced at me

I began brushing my teeth again, while at the same time, I was thinking about this matter. The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was amiss. I couldn't possibly be sleepwalking, but why was I on the ground?

I immediately picked up my phone and saw an unfamiliar phone number, and it was now two thirty in the morning

Ah! Ah! Linzi! You... you... what happened?

Goodness, the scammers nowadays truly work without regard for day or night

"Linzi, what... what are you eating in your mouth?" The literary master spoke with a trembling voice, and his speech began to stutter.

Suddenly, my phone rang; at that moment, someone was calling.

The literary master saw that I was fine and finally breathed a sigh of relief, cursing, "Damn! You still ask me if you are sleepwalking? You nearly scared me to death. If you are going to sleepwalk, then just do it, but you broke your nose and your face is covered in blood. You scared me half to death. Tomorrow, you must treat me to a meal!"

In the crowd, someone in the group of onlookers asked if there was a doctor, suggesting that first aid should be administered to the injured person.

The literary master saw that others had fallen asleep again, slowly walked to my side, and asked with a hint of fear: "Linzi, are you awake?"

I do not know what time it is, nor do I understand what is happening

Just as we were about to leave, someone suddenly noticed the four of us and asked if we were students of the medical school. This place is very close to the medical school, and looking at us, it was highly likely that we were indeed students of the medical school

After a while, there was no sound, and the literary master also fell asleep, so I slowly climbed onto the bed

I immediately released the girl and began to vomit, spraying the liquid from my mouth.

The literary master did not know how to explain; he had originally gotten up to use the restroom, but upon returning, he saw me getting out of bed and assumed I was also going to the restroom. He said a few words to me, but I did not respond to him

Could it be that I have encountered a ghost? As I thought of this, I involuntarily glanced around, and a layer of goosebumps rose on my skin

We are a few from the medical school, associated with doctors, and we understand first aid. However, we do not wish to cause trouble. We exchanged glances without speaking, as there are many instances of people making false claims nowadays

mouth

I pressed my lips together, and suddenly felt a moisture in my mouth, accompanied by a strange taste, so I licked my lips.

After coming up, I carefully examined the situation and found many bloodstains on the bed, which were smeared all over the sheets and blankets, as if a bleeding person had lain on my bed

Ugh!

However, at that time, I had no mood to listen to any words of praise; my stomach was churning violently, and I would occasionally vomit, feeling a constant sense of discomfort in my heart

The literary master could only say that he had been sleepwalking, and then he added that it was fine now. The others then scolded him once more and continued to sleep.

I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling somewhat happy in my heart, as I never expected that the little knowledge I had learned could actually be put to use

Upon hearing these words, I couldn't help but smile slightly. I sat up from the bed, then jumped down, playfully scolding them a few times, which significantly lifted my spirits

Did the accident happen yesterday? My mouth was full of fresh blood... Could it be... the girl I saved today? Is it her ghost that has come to find me?

At that time, although the lights in our dormitory were off, the hallway lights were on. Wenhao noticed my unusual behavior in the light and shouted, which startled me awake

Hearing the words of the literary master, I was instead taken aback. When did I develop the habit of sleepwalking? I sleep very quietly, not even snoring, so how could I possibly sleepwalk?

As I hesitated, a voice emerged from the crowd: "The breathing is getting weaker, so hurry up and give the injured person artificial respiration." The people around also echoed this sentiment

At twelve o'clock, everyone went to bed. We walked quite a bit outside today, and it wasn't long after lying down that we fell asleep

At that moment, my body instantly stiffened, and a strong metallic smell filled my mouth, permeating the very air I was breathing with a thick scent of blood

The four of us, being seniors, also enjoy joining in the excitement. Upon seeing a crowd, we immediately squeezed our way over, eager to find out what was happening.

Lin Zi, today you are quite the showstopper; that girl looks to be about our age, and you might have even stolen her first kiss.

This time, as I took a breath, I suddenly felt a large amount of liquid surge from the girl's mouth. This liquid then rushed into my mouth, and I immediately sensed a strong metallic taste spreading in my mouth, filling it with a nauseating liquid

I walked over to the girl, first crouched down to feel her breath, and found that she was still breathing, albeit very weakly. Then I took off my clothes to temporarily press on her wound, which could help slow the bleeding.

I was taken aback, and then I recalled what the teacher had taught us in class: artificial respiration can help those with weakened breathing catch their breath. Moreover, with so many people watching, we must take some measures; however, I still find it somewhat difficult to perform artificial respiration on a real person.

I was taken aback for a moment, then took a deep breath and continued to perform artificial respiration on the girl

The sound of an ambulance siren could be heard in the distance, and several medical personnel came over to lift the girl onto the ambulance. One of the older doctors even praised us.

I carefully changed the bed sheet in a quiet manner before lying back down on the bed

I was extremely unaccustomed to the sudden brightness, yet I still saw the literary giant standing by the light switch in shorts, his face pale, his body slightly trembling, and his eyes staring at me as if he were seeing a ghost

A few of my roommates also came to help, and although it was a bit chaotic, it still proved to be somewhat effective

In the evening, when my roommates returned after dinner and saw me still lying in bed, they were a bit worried about me

I answered the phone, and before I could say anything, I heard the other party say that my wife had been in a car accident, and that she had died in the hospital despite rescue efforts. I was instructed to go to the hospital to handle the paperwork, pay the fees, and then take the body back.

My close friend, a literary genius, teased me, wanting me to forget about today's events

This matter dates back to that weekend afternoon when I went out to have fun with three of my roommates. We returned to the school around six o'clock in the evening, just as it was getting dark, and on the way, we encountered a crowd gathered in one place, seemingly engaged in some lively event.

Originally, I was still hesitant, but now that I have been forced to this extent, I can only let the girl lie flat, then take a deep breath myself and begin to perform artificial respiration on her mouth. After doing it twice, the girl indeed showed some response, silently coughing a little, her body slightly rising and falling

Upon returning to the dormitory, I changed my clothes inside out, carefully brushed my teeth, and finally took a shower before lying down on the bed. However, there was still a faint smell of blood in my nostrils

I furrowed my brow at that moment, cursed at the other end of the phone, then hung up directly and tossed the phone aside

Just as I was about to close this message, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind, causing my body to stiffen for a moment, and my complexion changed dramatically. As I carefully recalled what the person on the other end of the call had said, my face grew increasingly pale, and cold sweat began to bead on my forehead

We quickly went to buy a few bottles of mineral water, at least managing to wash the fresh blood off our hands and faces, but the blood on our clothes could not be cleaned and would have to wait until we returned to school for washing

After pushing my way into the crowd, I saw a girl lying on the ground, surrounded by blood. Next to her was an electric bike that had been knocked to the side. It was evident that an accident had occurred, and the driver responsible for it had likely fled the scene.

Breathing is becoming increasingly weak

Indeed, Linzi, you have had quite the fortune today

Lin Zi, why didn't you give me the opportunity at that time

I suddenly heard a piercing sound, and then my whole body shuddered awake

I acted heroically by performing artificial respiration on a beautiful woman, but ended up stealing her first kiss, which led to great trouble

When someone asked like this, and everyone was looking at us, we could only nod with flushed faces and say that we were students. Then someone suggested that we go and provide first aid. For the sake of face and dignity, we had no choice but to walk over to the girl and see what her condition was.

By the way! I seem to have had a dream just now, where someone was pulling me as if they wanted to take me somewhere with a book

The girl was taken away by the ambulance, and the few of us left under the praise of the bystanders. They walked away with their heads held high, basking in the limelight, while I kept muttering "tch tch" and left with my head down

This number is not the one from earlier. I opened the message and saw the content: Hurry up and come pick me up

The girl lying on the ground looks about the same age as me. Although her face is scraped and smeared with blood, it is still evident that she is a beauty

Returning to school, a few of them asked me what I was having for dinner that night. At that moment, I had no mood for eating; all I could smell was the scent of blood in my nose. I simply shook my head and said I wouldn't eat, then I went straight back to the dormitory with a pale face

I immediately turned on the faucet, desperately washing my face and mouth, took out my toothbrush to brush my teeth, but my body was trembling

Upon hearing the words of the literary master, the others immediately joined in the commotion

At this moment, someone next to them was calling 120 on their phone, while another person shouted to quickly go up and see how the person who was hit was doing

Ah! I shouted loudly and rushed to the washstand by the door, looking at myself in the mirror

My mouth is filled with bright red blood, and some has also splattered on my nose. It feels as if I have taken a sip of fresh blood, a sensation akin to when the girl from the car accident spat blood into my mouth earlier today

Everyone played games in the dormitory for a while, and I gradually forgot about this matter

What I spat out was crimson blood; at that moment, my teeth, the corners of my mouth, and even my nose were all smeared with blood. I wiped it with my sleeve, and my clothes were also stained with blood

However, I am no longer feeling sleepy and can only lie in bed playing on my phone. Just as I was about to search on Baidu whether what I experienced earlier was a case of encountering a ghost or being possessed, my phone rang with a message.

The literary master continued to observe the girl's situation. Just as I had stopped, he shouted again: "Not yet, keep going!"
