Hospital No. 444

Pepe looked at Leyin's bookshelf in front of her.

"There are so many books you like to read."

"Yeah." Leyin came over and said, "As long as it's a good novel, I like to read it."

Suddenly, Pepe saw a set of books among them.

She didn't even have time to ask for music, and quickly pulled out the first volume of the set of books.

""Cinema of the Dead"! You actually have this book!"

"You like it?" Leyin was a little surprised.

She noticed that Pepe's hands seemed to be shaking because of excitement.

"My favorite set of books in high school... written by Black Wisp, the famous writer of suspense thrillers."

"After the Nitler family chapter, the plot completely changed. I bought the next few books just out of habit."

"When did you buy it?"

"Whenever...it was also in high school."

"Do your parents allow you to read these books?"

Leyin shook his head and said, "How could I agree? My grades were not very good at the time. So I bought it secretly, put a book cover on it so that my parents thought it was a reference book, and read it secretly. Do you like this set of books very much? "

"More than just liking it...this was my favorite book in high school..."

Pepe flipped through the pages of the book quickly, her fingers even trembling violently.

"I originally...I originally..."

Pepe recalled scenes from high school.

In fact, few people know that she is a seriously partial student. She did well in math, but her English scores never improved. My parents are worried about this. They are facing the college entrance examination. It is not easy to get into a good university if they cannot learn English well.

The academic master and the academic scumbag are all stereotypes. Studying has always been an extremely difficult and torturous thing, especially in high school.

Pepe's parents have very strict requirements for her. In order for her to study well, they gritted their teeth and took out a loan to buy a house in the school district, saying they were willing to make such an investment for the sake of education. Every time Pepe gets good grades, his parents are very happy. However, only Peipei herself knows that she actually doesn't like studying at all. It can even be said that she feels like vomiting every time she sees an English word.

She can use mathematical formulas easily and flexibly, but she finds it extremely difficult to deal with the complicated English grammar. By the time she was a sophomore in high school, her English scores were already at the bottom of the class.

"You asked me before, if any wish could come true..."

"Yes, I asked..."

Looking at the book in front of her, Pepe smiled bitterly.

"This set of books later went out of print because the sales were not very good. Later I went to college and wanted to buy a set online, but I couldn't find it on Taobao or Xianyu."

Pepe flipped through the book in front of him and finally put it back on the bookshelf with a sad expression.

"Zhaojun, reading is really not a pleasant thing."

"Who says it's not the case?" Leyin was particularly touched by this: "You are really amazing, and you can even go to graduate school..."

"I also bought a set of "Cinema of the Dead" before. At that time, my English scores were never improving, and my parents were angry about it in the books I bought."

"And? They tore the book out?"

"My mother took me to the bookstore near our school and said she wanted to return these books. She scolded the clerk, saying that a bookstore near the school should sell reference books and textbooks, but they actually gave me Selling this kind of bad novel about ghosts caused my grades to plummet. She said that her family is still paying off the mortgage and they are not allowed to sell this kind of book to me anymore."

Leyin was stunned.

"At that time, there were many other students from the school in the bookstore. That incident made a big fuss. Later, I communicated with the bookstore owner and bought textbooks of the same price at a discount. The most terrifying thing is that later, because I still know how to I went to buy books secretly, and even entrusted other classmates to buy them. As a result, my mother made trouble again and again and complained to the school. In the end... the bookstore owner was unbearable and stopped buying novels. My classmates also couldn't buy the books they wanted because they couldn't buy them. The books started to annoy me more and more.”

Leyin never expected that Pepe would have such an experience.

"After I was admitted to college, this set of books went out of print."

Then, she added: "Actually, I don't blame my mother. Later, my grades really improved and I was admitted to a good university. But when I filled out my application, this was not the major I wanted to study."

She looked at the books in front of her and said: "What you want to do and what you are suitable to do are often not the same thing. What my mother often said to me is that if a person wants to be successful, he must do it. Things I don’t like to do.”

"My mother's personality is different from your mother's. She always takes good care of me. My father always says that a loving mother often fails, but I know she really cares about me. My mother once said to me , If a person cannot do what he likes, even if he is successful, it is meaningless.”

Peipei didn't notice that when Leyin mentioned "my mother", her hands clenched tightly into fists.

"That's the case with Blue Eagle. He likes to play football, but his parents don't agree. I didn't expect that he can actually join a professional football club now."

Leyin thought for a while and asked: "Well... Xishi, you just said, if you have a wish you want to realize, what is it?"

"It's better not to say it. It will sound ridiculous to you."

"What do you think?"

"No more." Pepe still shook his head.

However, Leyin's curiosity was aroused.

"How about I tell you a story?"

"what story?"

Afterwards, Leyin made two cups of coffee.

"Well, a long time ago, there was a... little girl..."

Pepe had already had coffee, so he didn't really want to drink it, but he still took the coffee cup out of courtesy.

"One day, she met a witch in the forest..."

"Huh? Fairy tale?" Pepe was surprised. She thought Leyin would tell her a story that really happened to her.

"Well, you can just listen to it as a fairy tale."

"Okay, just say it."

"The witch told the girl that her wish could come true, but at a certain price."

Speaking of this, Leyin subconsciously didn't dare to look at Pepe.

Pepe thought to herself: Is this story a fairy tale by Andersen? Grimm's Fairy Tales?

"She made a very simple wish at the beginning, and the content of the wish was..."

Leyin told Pepe after some processing of her true experience in the form of a fairy tale.

"She couldn't bear to part with her, so she had no choice but to abandon her cat."

Pepe subconsciously took a sip of coffee and said, "Then what? She has fulfilled her wish and is with the boy she loves. Is it necessary to find the forest witch?"

"Yes, she later went to find the forest witch. She wanted to realize the boy's dream... She felt that doing so could make up for her inner uneasiness. After all, she relied on the power of the witch to be with the boy. "

"That's understandable. What happened next?"

"The price the witch offered this time is too high. It's so high that it's impossible to afford it..."

Peipei found that Leyin's face turned a little pale when he said this.

"What's the price this time?"

However, Leyin bit her lips tightly and hesitated to say anything.

"what is it?"

"I...the little girl's...mother..."

"Her mother?"

"The forest witch said that the little girl should kill her mother with her own hands. It must be completed within eight days. If it cannot be completed within eight days, the forest witch will come to the little girl in person and ask for revenge from her... But how could the little girl do it? That’s her mother!”

"It's so cruel! In "The Daughter of the Sea", the mermaid was just asked to kill the prince," Pepe immediately said: "What happened next? Did the forest witch come? What method did the little girl find to deal with the forest? Witch?"

Leyin shook his head.

"No way was found. That's the end of the story."

"It's over? Is this the end?"

"Well, it's a psychological test story."

"The forest witch is some kind of metaphor?"

"Well, I think it should be..."

"I really want to know the ending of the story. What will happen when the forest witch comes eight days later?"

"No matter what, you can't sacrifice your mother, right?"

Pepe thought of her mother and nodded without hesitation.

"of course!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the toilet!
