Twelve came to class early today, and there were not many people in the classroom, so she randomly picked a seat near the back and the aisle.

"Ding—" An email came from the mailbox.

Twelve turned on the computer, it was from the maintenance department of the dormitory.

[Maintenance application: rain leaking from the window] Please do not reply: Thank you for submitting the maintenance application. Our staff are actively providing timely assistance to students on campus 24 hours a day...

Twelve felt a groan in his heart.When it rained heavily three days ago, water leaked all over the floor from the window. Twelve was watching a drama with popcorn in his arms. He wondered why the sound of the rain was a bit loud today. The rain that meandered in by the window was almost reaching the power strip, so she was so scared that she quickly unplugged it and called the maintenance department.

"...my bedroom is leaking." Twelve stumbled and explained to the operator in broken English.

"... Could you please describe the degree of rain leakage?" The other party was a man with a nice voice but a stiff attitude.

"Leaking rain..." Twelve looked up at the stream flowing from the window. After searching for a long time in his mind, he only came up with the word "leaking rain".

"Can you please describe the degree of rain leakage?"

Twelve sighed: "I don't know what to say, come and have a look."

Two hours later, a burly middle-aged man came over to check, took four or five towels and spread them on the floor.The rain is no longer running everywhere.

"It's still going to rain tonight." He shrugged, "It's rainy season, so be careful at night."

He looked at the power strip that Twelve put away again, and praised: "Yes, you are very smart, you should put the power supply high."

Then he left.

Until now, three days later, the window is still lonely and broken, and the towel is still lying on the ground lonely, wet and dry.

Twelve took out his mobile phone, searched for the number of the maintenance department, took a deep breath, and dialed it.

"I live in 108, and the window in my bedroom is leaking." Before the other party could speak, Twelve poured it out in one breath.

The seats in the classroom were filled one after another by the students who came in for class. Twelve looked at the wall clock next to the blackboard, and there were 5 minutes to go to class, so he had time to make a phone call.

"...Okay." This time it was a woman who made the connection, and her voice was much more enthusiastic, "We will send someone to check as soon as possible, so you don't have to stay in the bedroom."

"Okay, okay. Thank you." Twelve quickly responded.

"Then, I wish you a nice day." The woman hung up the phone after saying the necessary polite words professionally.

"...Is it raining at home?" A soft male voice came from the side, with a smile.

Twelve was taken aback. She didn't know when a boy was sitting next to her. She turned her head and saw smiling eyebrows and slightly messy bangs.

It's Li.

"It doesn't rain often here, and the house always leaks when it rains." He shrugged and explained solemnly, "At this time last year, my bedroom also leaked, so I had to move to a friend's house to sleep on the sofa. .”

"Hmm..." Twelve nodded cautiously.

Li is quite familiar.

"Is the room okay? Can I stay here tonight?"

"It's okay, it's just in the corner, and it doesn't reach the bed."

The boy didn't come to today's class, so Li just sat on the side of Twelve, playing with his mobile phone, listening absent-mindedly.

"You always seem to be sitting alone." Li looked at the screen and whispered.

Twelve is a little surprised, her sense of existence has always been weak, and she didn't expect Li to notice her.

She raised her head, looked at the sparse classmates in the classroom, and suddenly understood again.There are usually not many students who come to class, and she likes to sit alone in a place where there is no one, no wonder it is very conspicuous.

"I don't have any friends." Twelve laughed at himself, "What about you? Didn't any friends come today?"

Li flicked his fingers across the screen for a moment, and then Twelve caught a glimpse of a big gameover.

His eyes were half hidden in his rather long bangs, and the light from the phone screen condensed into a small light spot in his eyes, as if all the emotions were absorbed in it suddenly.

He was silent for a while, and said, "You mean Zeming? The boy who often sits next to me."

Her intuition told Twelve Zeming was the guy with the short cut, so she nodded and said "hmm".

"It's been cold and rainy these days, and he's caught a cold."

A WeChat message happened to slide across the screen, which was a pink avatar. Li marked it up immediately, but Twelve didn't see the content.

"I bought some medicine for him." He pointed to his backpack, "I have some dinner, I'll send it after class."

The sound of rain outside the classroom gradually increased.

Li looked up from the phone: "Do you live far away? I have a car, and I can take you there if I drop by - it's raining heavily."
