Han Fei finished the diary. Even though there was a belated repentance, the repentance was more like crocodile tears.
Other than Number 4, the other 3 girls in the room were reminded of kindness when they were faced with despair and death.
The last page of the diary even had a group photo of the 4 girls in Room 304 but now the picture looked so laughable.
Putting down the diary, Han Fei picked up the picture. The 4 girls' names were written on the back of the picture.
The girl in Bed 4 was called Su Mengting. She had the sweetest smile in the picture.
'Such a good child was forced into becoming a monster.' Han Fei pocketed the picture because he sensed traces of Yin energy coming from it.
'The environment can indeed affect a person greatly.' Zhang Guanxing looked at the tattoo on his palm. He pitied Su Mengting.
'Indeed, a long time ago, I was also a kind and innocent boy.' Han Fei placed the black can closer to the door. If the ghost tried to enter through the front door, he would use the can to control it.
He did not plan to harm the ghost, honestly, he did not have the ability to do so. Therefore, his initial plan was to hold on for 30 minutes and then run.
By then, it had been 15 minutes since the mission started and there were no accidents.
Han Fei and Zhang Guanxing turned Room 304 upside down but they did not find any other useful clues.
"Sir, does that mean we only need to stay inside this room?" Zhang Guanxing thought back to the contents of the diary. "The main reason the 3 girls got into trouble was because the hostel manager came. They had no choice but to open the door and that allowed Su Mengting to enter the room. As long as we keep the door closed, we should be fine. "
"You're too naive to think that." Han Fei shook his head. "The last part of the diary has been torn out. The girl who wrote the diary has probably already died. This proves that Su Mengting entered the room at the time."
"Yes, that's right."
"What if she didn't leave after she entered the room?" Han Fei's question stunned Zhang Guanxing.
"You mean, the ghost has been inside the room all this time? Then … why are there footsteps outside the door? "Zhang Guanxing broke out in cold sweat.
"Didn't you notice how strange the footsteps were? It feels like I'm being dragged back and forth by something. " Han Fei got to the crux of the problem. "The ghosts outside are probably there to force us into the room."
"Force him into the room?"
"Yes."
Han Fei looked at the introduction of the hidden mission. It said to not open the door no matter what and to hold on for half an hour.
Most of the missions given by the system were the kind of missions where one knew that there was a tiger in the mountain, but one still went to the mountain. The system did not ask him to open the door, not because there was a ghost outside and he would die if he opened the door. Instead, he wanted to tell him that there was a ghost in the house and that he should hold on for half an hour.
When half an hour was up, he could naturally open the door and leave. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could survive until the end of the mission.
The System could always use the calmest words to issue the most insane mission.
'There could be ghosts both inside and outside the house, the only difference is which kind of ghost we want to face.' Han Fei sat on the bed. He had been trained to the point where he could perform reverse analysis.
"Are there ghosts in everything …" Zhang Guanxing sat down obediently next to Han Fei. The delinquent had become an obedient teacher in this Iyashikei game.
"Don't be afraid, just hold on for half an hour." Just as Han Fei said that, footsteps came from the corridor again.
The strange sound got closer and this time it stopped at the door to Room 304.
The key slowly slid into the keyhole. The old lock creaked noisily. As the person exerted more strength, the whole lock shook like it was going to fall off at any moment.
Han Fei and Zhang Guanxing shut their mouths. They stared at the door and did not dare to breathe too loudly.
Several minutes later, silence returned to the door.
"Has she left?"
Before Zhang Guanxing finished, there was a knock on the door to Room 304.
The sudden knock gave Zhang Guanxing quite a fright. He stood up and his head almost knocked into the top bunk.
The scene recorded in the diary appeared once again. The knocking in the corridor had a fixed interval, one knock after another on the door.
If a ghost suddenly appeared, it would only be a momentary scare but Room 304 was different.
The knocking seemed to be purposely tormenting the person inside the room. She returned to this room again and again with resentment, hatred and pain.
The stench in the room thickened and the air turned damp. The doors and windows were closed but a cold breeze blew through occasionally.
Separated by a door, Han Fei and Zhang Guanxing had no idea what was beyond the door. The fear of the unknown was the most torturous.
Veins popped on his hands. Zhang Guanxing picked up the pen and paper from the table and wrote something for Han Fei.
"Sir, I'll open the door. You take the can and when I open the door, throw it out!"
Zhang Guanxing's idea was good but he neglected one problem. The black can was one of the few 'weapons' Han Fei had on him. If he tossed the can out, how would he deal with the ghost inside the room?
Furthermore, half an hour was not up yet, Han Fei would not panic. Therefore, he wrote down 7 words on the paper — 'Do as I say later.'
The ghost inside Room 304 wanted to buy time. That was exactly what Han Fei wanted. He and Zhang Guanxing stared at the door silently.
Gradually, the door of Room 304 started to shake and the room became damper.
Zhang Guanxing who had his attention on the door suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He shrunk back in fear.
He reached to the back of his neck and realized it was wet.
"Is it leaking? But what's above me is not the ceiling but the bed frame? "
Zhang Guanxing lifted his head in confusion. He looked through the gap in the mattress and realized there was a disfigured face above his head.
"Pa … pa … sir …" Zhang Guanxing's hands shook as he nudged Han Fei.
"What's wrong?"
"She, she's right above us!" Then Zhang Guanxing grabbed Han Fei and they left the bed. The two stood in the middle of the room and looked at the bed.
There was no ghost face but the bed was wet and a human-shaped stain could be seen on it.
"I saw it! I saw it with my own eyes! "
"Don't worry, I believe you." Han Fei signaled for Zhang Guanxing to step back. He reached his hand towards the mattress and used his power.
When his finger touched the human-shaped stain, the room echoed with the girl's wails. Han Fei could feel despair and regret from the stain.
"You've forced her to her death and now she's here to find you. This is payback for payback." Han Fei did not think about saving the girl. Firstly, he did not have the power to do so. Secondly, he believed he should be punished for his wrongdoings.
The stench of decay in the room was suffocating. Han Fei's clothes became wet. It was as if the bedroom was slowly sinking into an underground river.
The room turned damp and cold. All the light was swallowed up.
There was nowhere that was safe. Han Fei opened the mission interface. There were 6 minutes left until the mission ended.
Picking up the black can from the ground, Han Fei looked around cautiously. He knew the thing was about to show up.
The knocking on the door became more urgent. Han Fei and Zhang Guanxing stood in the room on high alert!
Just as the mission was about to be completed in 3 minutes, the knocking suddenly stopped. Then footsteps came. The monster outside the room seemed to be preparing to leave.
When the footsteps that sounded like they were dragging something, Han Fei's heart slowly settled back into his chest. But as he listened, he realized something was not right!
'There are two footsteps!'
He whipped around!
A girl who was soaking wet stood next to Zhang Guanxing. Her clothes stuck to her body. Her skin was pale and bloodless!
The water on the ground crawled all over Zhang Guanxing's body. The disfigured face was filled with pain and resentment. Her body was still expanding.
"Behind you!"
Han Fei grabbed Zhang Guanxing's arm. As he dragged Zhang Guanxing, he opened the black can at the girl.
It was unclear whether it was because the wishing can had been repeatedly damaged or the girl's own power level, but when she saw the black can, she only paused for a few seconds.
Using these few seconds, Han Fei dragged Zhang Guanxing to his side.
By then, the girl's body had merged with all the water in the room. She radiated with a shocking resentment.
The black can cracked. Another crack appeared on the can. Han Fei knew he could not waste any more time.
"Aim the can at her."
Han Fei handed the black can to Zhang Guanxing. Then he took out the red paper doll from his inventory.
Han Fei did not have the time to communicate with the doll. He sliced open his palm and allowed the blood to drip onto the doll.
Drinking the blood, the doll's eyes slowly opened. It looked at Han Fei with a sickly longing.
