    The first book... It was summer, the strong sunlight was shining directly down, and the sun-baked asphalt pavement was constantly evaporating heat. In the last row by the window of the university classroom, a boy wearing a white T-shirt was lying on his seat, holding a lollipop in his mouth, puffing out his cheeks, and discussing life with Duke Zhou. It is obviously such a funny and somewhat amusing behavior, but when it appears on the boy's handsome face, not only does it not make people feel funny, but it actually looks very interesting and cute. While he was having a great time chatting with Duke Zhou, Youli suddenly felt a shiver all over his body. A heavy falling feeling made him breathless, as if he had been thrown into an ice bucket, chilling him to the bone. Youli woke up suddenly and opened his eyes to find that he was in a dark and closed space. He rubbed his eyes, but everything he could see was still dark. Is he sleeping blind?
