Chapter 2 002 Confused 2

 The bat froze and hung in the air.

Li Chengyi's eyes were stunned. He looked at everything in front of him and didn't know how to react for a moment.

 In front of him.

 It is a wide, dark parking lot.

 There is not a single car in the square and open space. It is like a long closed box with only dim lights illuminating the ground.

 The light is pale white, there are two kinds.

 One is on the right, a long line fixed on the black ceiling, extending into the darkness in the distance.

 The other type is on the left, which is a line segment lamp about one meter long. It is hung horizontally on the ceiling every ten meters, one after another, and also extends into the darkness in the distance.

The black and somewhat reflective ground is slightly whitened by the light, and some vague white lines of parking spaces can also be seen.

　　‘What the hell? Am I dreaming? ’ Li Chengyi gently put down the bat and squeezed his thigh hard.

 Severe pain quickly spread throughout his body, waking him up.

 ‘It doesn’t seem to be a dream. ’ He responded quickly.

Even time travel has appeared, and it seems normal to have something happen again.

 Taking a deep breath, inhaling and exhaling, his face calmed down a little.

Standing at the door, he paused.

　　‘First determine whether this is a dream. ’

Picking up the bat and getting close to it, almost touching his face, he carefully observed its texture up close.

There are tiny smooth rust spots on the surface of the stick, and the silver paint reflects the light in the distance.

There is also a scroll-like pattern engraved on the middle section. There is a line of small words in the pattern: Life lies in severe blows.

 Below the fine print is the brand company: Bijia Sports. Below that are two neat characters representing his company.

 ‘Dreams can’t be so clear and delicate! ’

Li Chengyi was heartbroken and gripped the non-slip handle of the bat tightly. The dense texture gave him a rough feel, which made him reaffirm that this was not a dream.

 Generally, according to his experience, to judge whether it is a dream or not, you only need to observe the details to find clues.

 Details in dreams are often blurry.

 And now.

He stood at the door, took a deep breath, and looked at the parking lot outside, not wanting to go out at all.

 Subconsciously, he took a step back, wanting to retreat into the room and close the door.

 ‘Perhaps closing the door and reopening it will return to normal. ’

He was thinking to himself, but his back was pressed against a cold wall.

　　　! ! ’ Li Chengyi froze and quickly turned his head to look.

 The bedroom behind him turned into a gray-white wall at some point!

The room is gone! ?

 His bedroom is gone! ?

He was holding the bat and wearing the gray underwear he wore when sleeping. He stood there blankly, not realizing what happened.

The room is gone.

 The door frame is gone too.

 There was only a stone wall left behind him that was exactly the same as the other walls.

Had it not been for the bat he was holding in his hand, he might have thought that he was hallucinating that he was sleeping in the room before.

Stretching out his hand, Li Chengyi gently touched the wall in front of him.

 The hard, cold touch and rough texture told him that the wall in front of him was real.

There are even some tiny damaged spots on the wall, as if it had been hit by something hard at an acute angle, revealing another layer of gray-black material underneath.

'What exactly is going on! ? ! ’

Li Chengyi was stunned.

 He turned around again, looked at the parking lot, and took a deep breath.

 He hesitated and paused for a short while. The expression on his face gradually calmed down, and the expression in his eyes changed rapidly.

Not long after, he finally took a long breath and took a step forward.

Phew!

 In an instant, the world was spinning, Li Chengyi's eyes blurred, and his consciousness fell into a blur for a moment.

 He seemed to be floating, and the world was spinning.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 eaten.

 The piercing sound of the alarm vibrated in his ears.

Li Chengyi gradually regained his vision.

 The parking lot in his eyes changed into the white ceiling of his room.

 Pieces of square metal plates, pieced together, with white square frames and black lines, are the simple ceiling patterns at home.

He sat blankly on the bed, and the cell phone on the bedside table vibrated slightly.

　　is a set alarm clock.

 The word ‘exercise’ appeared on the light blue screen.

 The time is 7:32 minutes.

Li Chengyi took a deep breath and felt that his heart was still beating fast.

The scene just now was so lifelike that he still couldn't come back to his senses.

Sitting on the bed and waiting for the blood flow to slow down, he slowly picked up his phone while the alarm rang.

 The background of the mobile phone is a piece of dark blue water, with three young people in red life jackets in the center, lying on their backs on a round inflatable mattress.

 The three of them put their hands behind their heads and smiled happily.

 Golden sunshine, gray inflatable mattresses, red life jackets, and the bright smiles of three people formed a warm picture in the center of the deep blue water.

Li Chengyi looked at the background photo on the screen, held the phone in mid-air, and waited for a while, only vague memories came out of his mind.

 ‘Lin Sang, Chen Xudong. ’

 He remembered the names of two other people besides his own. The girl’s name is Lin Sang, and the sturdy boy’s name is Chen Xudong.

This was taken by aerial photography when the three of them went to the Bisha Islands on the other side of the blue ocean together two years ago.

 Putting down the phone, he looked at its appearance.

　　It is a simple rectangular silver box, not much different from the mobile phone in the previous life.

 It’s all screen, no buttons.

 There was a crash.

He put down his cell phone, lifted the quilt, stood up, walked to the window, pushed aside a few coats and clothes hanging by the window, and opened the window.

 The cool air outside turned into a gust of wind, blowing on his cheeks, and the aroma of fried eggs also penetrated his nostrils.

The light outside the window is pure white, and the window is on the fourth floor. There are rows of cars of different colors parked below.

Opposite is another gray-white building with more than ten floors. From here, you can see the families gradually moving in the windows between the floors.

Li Chengyi turned his head and looked further into the sky.

In the blue sky, a hazy white cloud is like cotton wool, sometimes blocking the sun, sometimes leaking a little gold.

 He calmed down, turned around, walked to the table, and took out a clean mirror from the drawer.

 Looked at myself in the mirror.

 The mirror reflected an ordinary face of a young man with dark eyes and light yellow skin.

The eyebrows are slightly thin, the corners of his eyes are slightly raised, and he seems to be smiling at all times. Other than that, he has no other memorable features.

 The nose is neither high nor short, the mouth is neither wide nor narrow, neither thick nor thin.

 He is about in his twenties, with curious eyes and a hint of surprise.

 ‘It seems that there is no difference from the previous life? ’

 This thought flashed through Li Chengyi's mind.

 According to the habits of his predecessor, he should now get dressed and go out to exercise.

Although the memory is vague, I can remember many things.

 Opening the closet, he quickly searched for a set of gray sportswear and put it on, then opened the door and went out into the living room.

 The living room is empty, my parents and sister are no longer there. There are also a few pairs of shoes missing in the shoe cabinet at the door.

A box of something dusty and jelly-like was placed on the gray rectangular stone table.

Li Chengyi came closer, picked it up and looked at it.

There is a line printed on the outside of the box: Tremella Mung Bean Porridge-Gudingpai.

 After hesitating for a moment, he tore open the lid of the box and drank.

It tastes very sweet, no different from what I had in my previous life.

 Eat breakfast quickly, change shoes, and put on a sports **** pack.

Li Chengyi carefully reviewed his vague memories, put on his mobile phone keys, opened the door and walked out of the house.

 In the empty and cold stairwell, the speed of the silver elevator was faster than he expected.

 As soon as he pressed the button, counting four seconds in his mind, he reached the first floor.

 Leaving the stairwell and walking out of the building entrance, his feet stepped on the gray ground outside for the first time. Feeling the hard and solid touch, Li Chengyi suddenly felt at ease.

He stood at the entrance of the building and felt the warm wind blowing on his body. The wind carried the fragrance of flowers and breakfast, and an indescribable sense of freshness came to his heart.

Jingle Bell.

 Suddenly there was the sound of a bell coming from the entrance of the building opposite.

An old man with gray hair is helping his granddaughter to sit on the back seat of a bicycle. He rushes forward one step at a time, two steps at a time, and then gets on the bike. He rides the bike with a calm demeanor to send his granddaughter to school.

The little girl, who was less than ten years old, was carrying a schoolbag and yawning. There were still a few tears in the corners of her eyes, and there were still fingerprints on one side of her face.

Li Chengyi moved his ankles while watching the little girl and the old man go away.

 He jumped twice, followed the direction of the bicycle, and trotted to catch up.

 That side is the direction out of the community, and the location where I do my daily exercises is on the side of this community called Happy Community, in a small park.

On the internal road of the community, a car drove past, all of them were people going out to work.

The leaves and branches on the head were rustling in the wind, and little yellowish debris was constantly flying, which seemed to be some kind of petals, or the fluff on the leaves.

Li Chengyi ran out of the community along the road, paused for a moment in front of a big red stone with the word "Happy Community" on the right side of the door, and then continued running to the right side of the community.

 Fresh air, suitable temperature, bright light, clean streets.

 There is a constant flow of cars and people going to work and taking their children to school, as well as people who get up early to exercise.

 All the sense of reality made Li Chengyi's somewhat unstable mood slowly calm down.

 He ran to the entrance of the small park in one breath, stopped at a circular open space, and waited.

 The people exercising with his predecessor were the other two people in the background photo on his mobile phone: Lin Sang and Chen Xudong.

 Five days out of seven days a week, they will come here together to exercise early.

Li Chengyi was a little expectant, but also a little nervous. Everything in this world was new to him.

 His previous interpersonal relationships were all familiar yet unfamiliar to him in the past.

While thinking about how to deal with the other two friends, the uneasiness caused by last night's strange experience was gradually forgotten.

He had a vague sense of trance, as if this was his real self, and the previous life in his memory was just an extremely real dream.

 But this feeling was quickly forgotten.

 Because, there was already a person on the right trotting towards him.

 “Xiao Yi!” The man shouted from a distance, his running movements were very standard.

This man is tall and tall, at least 1.9 meters tall. He has a short haircut, bulging muscles, and is very big. He wears black short-sleeved shirts and gray and white sweatpants. He has thick eyebrows and a large red mole on the left side of his eyebrows. He is his predecessor. Chen Xudong, Li Chengyi’s friend and classmate.
