Chapter 522

~7 min read 1,391 words

Midnight, 11:00 PM.

Dormitory 901.

The room-checking teacher walked into the room with a strange gait.

"Are all the students asleep?"

Her words couldn't possibly get a response. With yesterday's experience, everyone knew how to deal with room checks. Everyone closed their eyes tightly, pretending to be fast asleep.

The room-checking teacher used her three-board axe.

Observing face-to-face, shining a flashlight into the eyes, and pretending to leave but ambushing on the floor.

But the same moves had no effect on the Lotus Juanren and newcomers.

After waiting for about an hour.

The room-checking teacher finally climbed up from the floor, left the dormitory with a patter-patter sound, and closed the door forcefully. The entire dormitory building heard the sound of doors closing one after another.

It was the same last night.

The room-checking teacher would only stay in the room for about an hour, and would leave collectively by midnight at the latest.

Whether such a departure was true or false was temporarily unknown.

Without the room-checking teacher's intimidation, Wei Kang, Jiang Dong, and Ji Yaning gradually felt sleepy with their eyes closed.

In a daze.

Ji Yaning felt the bed shake twice.

At first, she thought it was Wei Kang and Jiang Dong turning over, but as soon as this thought arose, she broke out in a cold sweat. Her bed belonged to the fourth position, and Wei and Jiang's beds weren't connected to hers, and Sun Lingchuan, who was in the third position connected to her bed, had already died, and even the corpse had been swept into the dustpan.

Why would her bed shake out of thin air?

Was there something else on Sun Lingchuan's bed?

The room was pitch black.

A figure slowly sat up on the innermost bed.

This was Dormitory 902.

The person who sat up was Wu Xian.

He closed his eyes, his mouth crooked, drooling, and said vaguely.

"I want to eat beef!"

After speaking.

He lay down again in a daze.

A few minutes later.

Wu Xian sat up again. This time his eyes were open and his expression was normal.

"Sure enough, they left."

His sleepwalking-like performance just now was to test whether the room-checking teacher had really left.

To obtain more Ghost-Drawing Talismans, Wu Xian had to meditate, and the safest and most undisturbed meditation time was during the night when sleeping.

But the existence of the room-checking teacher made Wu Xian afraid to meditate.

After all, she pretended to leave last night and pitted Su Mi. Who knew if the departure at 12:00 was true or false? But if he thought like this, it would never end.

Wu Xian didn't want to give up eating for fear of choking, so he had the test just now.

The room-checking teacher only cared about whether the students were sleeping; she couldn't control whether the students were sleepwalking while sleeping, right?

Even if she could.

To test out a safe meditation time, Wu Xian was willing to pay the risk of having one red bar deducted.

"Then, continue meditating."

Wu Xian assumed the five-hearts-facing-the-sky posture, and just as he was about to activate the Human Divine Ability, he saw movement on the bed in front, and Jin Shasha actually sat up.

Her hair was messy, her eyes closed, her mouth crooked, drooling, and she climbed down from the bed lightly, pulled open the door, and walked out.

Wu Xian sat on the bed.

He couldn't see the details outside the door.

He could only barely see that in the light of the corridor, two shadows were embracing each other.

One was Jin Shasha's human shadow.

And there was another upright thing, like a huge hairball, constantly swimming in the light and shadow...

Morning.

Sunlight shone into the dormitory.

Jin Shasha stretched on the bed.

She didn't have confidence in her own courage, so to deal with the room check, she chose the most stupid but most useful method.

That was to go to sleep early! Originally, after three classes yesterday, she was tired and hungry, and once she fell asleep, she was like a dead pig, so she didn't need to worry about being scared by the room-checking teacher.

She hummed a song and walked out of 902 to wash her face at the washstand in the restroom.

There should be enough washstand space downstairs, but there were only nineteen people left on the ninth floor, so there was no need to scramble for the washstand. After she washed her face and returned to the dormitory, she saw the washed school uniform placed at the door.

She took the uniform into the room.

While changing clothes, she urged Wu Xian and the others.

"Let's go to the cafeteria earlier today. I'm going to starve to death. If I don't eat something, I'll die before violating the rules."

But her words didn't get a response from Wu Xian and the others.

She looked at Wen Tinghua strangely.

"What's wrong with you guys? Your expressions seem a bit strange."

Wen Tinghua hesitated for two seconds and asked: "You seem to be in a good mood today. Did you encounter any good things?"

Jin Shasha blushed: "No, wasn't I with you guys all night last night? But being able to live until now can already be considered a good thing."

The reason she was in a good mood was.

She had a dream last night that made her heart bloom. She couldn't remember the specific content of the dream, only that it was very shameful and very happy, allowing her to be in a good mood even in the Fudi.

The three of Wu Xian looked at each other and finally said nothing.

Jin Shasha's sleepwalking last night was most likely a "teacher-student romance" with the etiquette teacher.

If he told her directly, she might be scared to the point of breaking down on the spot, which might not be a good thing for her or others, so Wu Xian didn't plan to tell her the truth for the time being, but prepared to observe further.

"Ah!"

"It's you, you aren't..."

A scream came from Dormitory 901, and there were all kinds of movements in other dormitories. The native residents downstairs were also in chaos.

Wu Xian put on his sportswear and just wanted to go out to see the situation when he saw a figure pass by the dormitory door.

This was a middle-aged woman wearing sportswear with a pale complexion.

It was Cai Chun, who should have had no head!

Behind Cai Chun followed Deng Qiaoling, who also had a pale complexion.

When Deng Qiaoling passed the door of 902, she specifically waved in Wu Xian's direction and revealed a slightly stiff smile.

"Morning!"

She was wearing a name tag on her chest.

There were no bars on the name tag, but the words "Student Council" were written!

She had become a member of the student council! Wu Xian pondered for two seconds, then revealed a smile and waved to Deng Qiaoling, but Deng Qiaoling's face straightened instantly, and she turned and walked down the stairs with Cai Chun.

"Among you three, is anyone close to Deng Qiaoling?"

The answer was negative.

Deng Qiaoling was a resort island female employee. Before entering the Fudi, everyone didn't even know each other, and she died early. How could they be close?

Wu Xian scanned the dormitory, his back feeling slightly cold.

If everyone wasn't close to Deng Qiaoling, it meant that Deng Qiaoling's greeting was directed at someone else in Dormitory 902.

But who was that someone else? And where were they hiding? Wu Xian walked out of the dormitory and saw Deng and Cai waiting in 901 for a while, then Sun Lingchuan walked out of the room with stiff movements, and the three walked downstairs side by side.

Looking down through the gaps in the stairs.

One could see the hands of the people going downstairs on the handrail. These people's hands were all equally pale, and their movements going downstairs were equally stiff.

Middle-aged man Jiang Dong with sunken eye sockets walked out of 901 and stood beside Wu Xian to look down together.

"These three people are not the three people who died yesterday."

"Although they all look the same, the people inside the skins are different."
