my roommate

Chapter 1

My roommate is a monster.

Yes, you heard that right, a monster.

It was just accidental to discover this at first.

It was the usual day, without any warning, the earth continued to rotate and the weather was still hot.I went back to the dormitory after playing basketball, and wanted to take a hot bath immediately to get rid of the smell of sweat. I just took off my vest and came to the door of the toilet. I only heard the sound of water splashing. I yelled. It's him taking a shower.

Strange, shouldn't he go home tomorrow weekend?

Yes, my roommate is local, he comes home every weekend and lives under the love and care of his parents.Unlike me, a hard-working immigrant, working hard in an unfamiliar place.

It’s fascinating to say that I did an abnormal behavior that I couldn’t explain at that time, which caused a 360-degree change in my life afterwards—I couldn’t help but peeked in through the crack of the door.

Then the whole world fell silent.

do you know what i see

Empty!

I thought I was dazzled, so I shook my head, and then looked closely, and suddenly I saw a crab standing on the ground!

Yes, you heard that right, a crab.

I was so frightened that my head short-circuited for a while before I came back to my senses and stumbled out of the dormitory.

I stayed in the hotel that night and spent a total of 300 RMB. My heart ached.

The next day, I woke up groggy, and dazedly checked the time on my phone, only to see a few more text messages on it.

1. Why didn't you go online yesterday, boy?

This is my buddy, the kind who play basketball and online games together and fight together.

2. Papers are due on Monday.

This is our monitor.

3. You didn't come back last night?

This is my roommate.

I instantly got chills from my back.What's the meaning?Is it possible that he wants to kill people when I go back?

This is terrible.

But due papers on Monday are also scary!

After some ideological struggle, I grabbed my clothes and rushed back.

After taking ten deep breaths and twenty times of mental preparation, I opened the door of the dormitory tremblingly.

Put your head in first.

That's fine, no one.

I quickly started the computer, and looked at the blinking cursor in Word, I was stunned.

How to write a thesis?

It's not that I'm a scumbag, but that I didn't pay attention to last week's class at all.

You ask me why?I am ashamed because I am addicted to mobile games.

Since I was a sophomore, I have been slack in my studies, and I worked hard after the college entrance examination. The leisurely atmosphere in the university dragged me into the ocean of being content with the status quo, and I went up and down with all living beings.To squander time on the grounds of interest, forget the future for a short time, and escape from reality.

In a puddle of sludge, roommates who are isolated from it are quite different.

I remember it very clearly.In last week's class, my buddies and I had just robbed a big BOSS and divided the spoils. When I looked up, I accidentally caught a glimpse of my roommate sitting in the upper corner. He was busy writing, which left a deep impression on me.

It's not his rich class notes that make me unforgettable, but his attitude.At that moment, I thought he was fresh and refined, handsome and charming, and he did not go with the world.

My roommate is a good student, the whole class knows that.

He must have a share of the scholarship every semester. The counselors and teachers of all subjects like him very much. Whenever no one listens to the class, he will use the example of his roommate to draw inferences from one instance, and the effect is outstanding.

Because of this, my roommate hate pulls off safe.

He had no friends and was never alone.

I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I didn't notice that the door of the dormitory opened. The broken wooden door that had been tortured by my seniors creaked and dragged me back to reality. I saw my roommate standing at the door with a plastic bag in his hand.

I was so nervous, I stared with bated breath, and if he dared to rush over, I would smash the laptop in his face.

However nothing happened.

The roommate gave me a faint look and walked back to his bed.He took out a box of instant noodles from the plastic bag, and then turned on the switch of the water dispenser.

Looking at his calm and usual series of actions, I couldn't help doubting what I saw and heard yesterday, and couldn't help frowning and asking, "Do you eat instant noodles for lunch?"

He nodded.

"Why didn't you come home this weekend?"

"Mom and Dad aren't home," he said.

My poor roommate, can I just eat junk food when my parents aren't home?

"Let's go to the cafeteria together." I stood up.

He looked at me again, a little strangely, but said nothing.

In fact, I was also wondering in my heart. To be honest, my relationship with my roommate is not very good.

The dormitory is a four-person room. After freshman year, one of them enlisted in the army, and the other rented a room with his girlfriend off-campus, so it was only me and my roommate who stayed alone in the vacant room.

Even so, the two are just living their own lives, and their daily communication is not deep.Because I know that he and I are people from two worlds.

I play basketball, and he stays in the dormitory; I play online games, and he lights up the lamp to study; I eat and drink with my buddies, and he goes home to find his mother.In addition, he is usually taciturn and serious, so everyone thinks he is out of group.

I don't know if I alienated him or if he deliberately alienated the crowd. It was the first time I asked him out for dinner.

I was a little uncomfortable, I scratched the back of my head, and excused myself: "I haven't eaten yet, so I happen to have breakfast and lunch together."

Seeing him froze, I snatched his instant noodles and threw them on the table, then dragged him outside.

He was honestly dragged to the cafeteria by me, and he didn't make a sound until he sat down.

"What do you eat?" I asked.

He looked straight at me, making my heart tremble.

I almost forgot, he was a monster.

He won't want to eat me, will he?

Startled by my own thoughts, I ran away.

Ten minutes later, my roommate silently picked up the set meal I ordered for him at random, and followed the three words "eating without speaking" perfectly.The cold atmosphere made me uneasy, so I decided to bury my head in hard work and make a quick decision.At the same time, my heart became more and more strange.

After all, why would I have dinner with him?

Until I went back to the dormitory, I didn't think of a reason.

I stared at the computer screen and continued to think hard.

Now how to do?Do you want to call the police?

Will my roommate be imprisoned as a guinea pig in a dark research institute from now on?Or be taken to a museum for the crowd to watch?

If I don't call the police, I'm pretending to be stupid?

He didn't seem to notice that I peeked at him in the shower.

Otherwise, as a monster with only backbone, it will definitely kill people.

But after knowing the truth, I was still very apprehensive about living in the same dormitory with him peacefully.

A cold hand was placed on my shoulder.

I was so scared that I almost sat down on the ground.

"You, what are you doing?" Seeing my roommate standing behind me, I was a little incoherent.

Maybe I overreacted, but he actually smiled for the first time: "Thinking about the thesis?"

I was stunned.

I swear, this is the first time I've seen him smile.

"Do you want to help?" But he quickly restrained his smile.

"I want it!" I nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.Are you kidding me, don't use the high-level thugs who come to your door, just put them under the blanket and wait for the New Year!

I made room for him, and my roommate sat on my bench and started typing.

I decided not to call the police.

Where can I find such a good roommate?Am I right!

I successfully passed the class on Monday, and my buddy was very surprised to see that I handed in the paper.

"Are you sorry that you didn't go to the game to write a paper on the weekend?"

I rubbed my nose and didn't answer.

"The sun will also come out from the west!" He lamented the cruelty of the world, and hooked my shoulders: "Go play ball after class later?"

"Sure." I gave him an OK gesture, in a great mood.

In a blink of an eye, I suddenly found that my roommate was looking at me. Seeing me looking back at him, he turned and left without saying a word.

I didn't take it seriously, and went to play with my buddies shoulder to shoulder.

Turned around and made a perfect three-pointer, the ball went in, a whistle sounded, and cheers rang out on the field.

Today, I happened to meet students from other departments. Our regular team played a friendly match with them, attracting a lot of onlookers, men and women.

I lifted the hem of my T-shirt to wipe my sweat, and my buddy came over and patted me on the back hard.

"Not bad, technology is getting better and better!"

"Three points of strength and seven points of luck." I was very humble.

The buddy suddenly approached and whispered in my ear: "Did you notice that there are a lot of girls here today?"

I looked around, and there were indeed many girls sitting in the stands, most of them in pairs.It's just that their attention didn't seem to be on the court, but they looked at a corner and whispered from time to time.

I followed their gazes and saw a man in a white shirt sitting under the shade of a remote tree at an oblique corner of the court.If I'm not mistaken, he was staring at me.

This person couldn't be more familiar - that's my roommate.

In my impression, my roommate is a nerd, he will definitely not be interested in any sports.What's going on today?I walked towards him suspiciously.

"Why are you here?" I asked him.

"Come and see." He lowered his head, his tone flat.

"Are you interested in basketball? We can be together!" I sat next to him.

He didn't speak, and handed me a bottle of mineral water.

I was shocked, I didn't expect my roommate to be so caring!Don't forget to bring me a bottle of water while watching the game!

I was so moved that I almost cried.

"Would you like to join us at the ball game celebration banquet?" In order to repay his "one-water grace", I invited.

Before the roommate could answer, the incomprehensible buddy followed up and interposed between us: "What are you talking about? What are you talking about?" He has always been a guy who likes to join in the fun and will not let gossip gossip.

Comparing to the clamor of his buddies, the roommate quietly shook his head, and after a while he refused: "No." He left the stadium silently, not taking a cloud with him.

I was a little dazed, and I was relieved after thinking about it carefully.

Roommates have always been calm and calm, and it is really too out of place to hang out with a group of sweaty big men like us.

The two of us are really not from the same world.

"When did you and Xie Ling become so close?" Seeing that I was in a daze, my buddy couldn't help asking me, with an extremely serious expression.

I glared at him, and answered absent-mindedly: "It's a dormitory anyway."

Xie Ling is my roommate's name.

Although he is very low-key, he is actually well-known in school.

Because of excellent grades and good conduct, as a model student in the teacher's heart, the word "Xie Ling" refreshes our sense of existence in our ears for many years.

There is another reason.

"Hey, I just said why there are so many girls today, so they are all here for kid Xie Ling." The buddies sighed.

Yes, my roommate still has a good face.

In layman's terms, he is handsome.

I don't think it's fair.

I believe that everyone feels the same, so he is isolated.

It seems a bit pathetic, but he is actually a very nice person.I went over things about my roommate in my head.

"Let's go, let's go to eat, what else are you thinking about?" My buddy urged me, there is no way, the teammates are waiting for us, and there will be dinner next.
