Chapter 254: Ye Cunxin VS Liu Xiaotian (Part 2)

That section chief Fan warmly personally took Liu Xiaotian to his dormitory.

Fortunately, it wasn't the building used as temporary barracks by the female special forces team, but——the cafeteria.

Yes, it's the cafeteria, a room at the end of the third floor.

The Thunder Strike Team has only a handful of people; the cafeteria has three floors, using two floors leaves half empty, and the third floor is hardly used at all.

So, the entire third floor is occupied by Liu Xiaotian alone.

A room long devoid of people, at night it carries a somewhat eerie, spooky atmosphere.

Of course, Liu Xiaotian doesn't care about those things.

He himself is a transmigrator—does he even care about those so-called ghosts and gods? But the eight female soldiers of the female special forces team don't know if he's afraid or not.

Since his dormitory is on the third floor, Liu Xiaotian didn't choose to simply open the window and push someone down.

In one, one look `no, one mistaken version%！

Due to the fright, her breathing and heartbeat became more than three times faster than normal, causing two of her organs mainly composed of glandular tubes to jump up and down with her rapid breathing.

Stiffly extending one hand, she lightly but rhythmically tapped the glass, while emitting a faint sound from her mouth, creating an atmosphere somewhat like that of a female ghost appearing in a horror film.

Even if he did that, he would have a very reasonable excuse and wouldn't need to bear any responsibility.

But just that tap was enough. From her facial expression and physical state, Liu Xiaotian could tell she was a living person.

She also realized that her carefully crafted female ghost guise was, in others' eyes, nothing but a joke.

Perhaps this is also the female mindset—always starting from subjective consciousness, centering on "I" when considering problems.

At this moment, Tang Xiao Xiao's mind was completely blank.

This could be confirmed by the faint smile that quietly curled up at the corner of Liu Xiaotian's mouth as seen through the glass.

After making all preparations, Tang Xiao Xiao extended her upper body over the rooftop railing, glanced at Liu Xiaotian's dormitory window, confirmed he had already fallen asleep, lowered the climbing rope, fastened the safety buckle onto it, and, holding the rope, slowly descended to the opening of Liu Xiaotian's dormitory, securing the safety buckle.

Because of Tang Xiao Xiao's guise and the makeup on her face, combined with the red ink and the flashlight she held between her toes, with the light shining directly on her face, Liu Xiaotian did not immediately recognize her as Tang Xiao Xiao.

This…… needs to be any more obvious?

As a special forces soldier, and one whose bodily organs have been comprehensively enhanced by the system, Liu Xiaotian's hearing is at least three times better than that of an ordinary person.

At this time, the soldiers of the cooking squad had already fallen asleep.

Compared to Ye Cunxin climbing a tree to ambush with a slingshot, Tang Xiao Xiao's behavior amounts to a prank, actually posing no real threat—unless her target has a heart condition and is exceptionally timid.

As a cultural soldier specializing in dance, pretending to be a ghost is practically kindergarten-level, utterly effortless.

Moreover, among the reasons Tang Xiao Xiao was instantly seen through, one very important factor is that her development is really a bit too advanced.

"Plop"

To be honest, upon first seeing such a standard female ghost image, Liu Xiaotian did indeed get goosebumps all over.

Around eleven-thirty at night, Tang Xiao Xiao, who hadn't slept, quietly got out of bed, bringing her prepared "props"—white bed sheet, fake hair, flashlight, and a climbing rope, plus a bottle of red ink, sneaked out of the dormitory and headed straight for the cafeteria.

Moreover, during the two months at Warrior School, he had grown accustomed to staying constantly vigilant.

Tang Xiao Xiao didn't use the main entrance; instead, she climbed directly onto the roof via the ladder on the outer wall, wrapped the white bed sheet around herself, put on the fake hair, then splashed red ink onto the bed sheet, tied the safety rope around her waist, and secured the climbing rope.

"Alright, stop pretending, get up and clean yourself off, hurry back to sleep."

Taking a deep breath, she steadied her mind, and Tang Xiao Xiao formally entered the "performance" state. As for fear, there really wasn't much of it.

Even she herself, upon first seeing her reflection in the glass, was startled.

I've never heard of a ghost that breathes.

"Whoosh"

During that time, not a single sound was made.

It wasn't that Liu Xiaotian scared her into this state; rather, this was the only escape method she could think of.

At least, that's what Tang Xiao Xiao thought.

By the way, she also told others that scaring people is a child's trick, and it doesn't work on me.

At most, it's just one point.

Liu Xiaotian is indeed strict; the number of evildoers who have died at his hands has already exceeded double digits, but he isn't so crazy as to kill someone over this matter.

Liu Xiaotian never even considered taking action.

So, just as Tang Xiao Xiao's finger finished its first tap on the glass, Liu Xiaotian had already opened his eyes.

However, no matter who it is, Liu Xiaotian won't just let it go.

However, she miscalculated.

On the contrary, his sudden appearance startled Tang Xiao Xiao; she instinctively opened her mouth, a scream nearly bursting from her throat, but she forced it back down.

According to her thinking, such a tapping on the glass would, at the very least, take more than ten seconds to wake Liu Xiaotian, who had already fallen into dreamland.

"Thud……thud, thud……"

Everyone's already dazed; surely they wouldn't be beaten again? Yet this time she overthought it again.

Not to mention the abnormal sound of tapping on glass, even if someone outside coughed once, his ear would twitch.

The long-short-short knocking sounded again; Liu Xiaotian suddenly flung open the curtain, coming face to face with Tang Xiao Xiao, separated only by a pane of glass.

But she now couldn't recall what to do next.

Even if Tang Xiao Xiao had a safety rope, as long as Liu Xiaotian wanted, she would still fall immediately.

Tang Xiao Xiao's body went limp and collapsed to the ground.

Liu Xiaotian flung open the window, reached out and grabbed Tang Xiao Xiao's arm, pulled her in from outside, raised his left hand, a blade flash swept past, and the climbing rope behind Tang Xiao Xiao snapped.

However, he didn't react immediately; instead, after confirming there was no immediate threat nearby, he lay on the bed for another two or three seconds, then, like a civet cat, silently dropped to the ground and quickly approached the window.

Moreover, descending from the third floor by hanging from the climbing rope is too dangerous; never do that again, or you'll bear the consequences!

Tang Xiao Xiao, somewhat incredulous, lifted her head to look at Liu Xiaotian's face, which was a mix of laughter and tears, timidly climbed up from the ground, bundled the bed sheet and fake hair she was wearing into a ball, held it in her arms, and slowly retreated toward the door.

Liu Xiaotian yawned, then waved his hand at Tang Xiao Xiao, whose face he had just made out:

Hurry up and go, or if you're slow, be careful I'll change my mind.
