"How, how would I know? We saw it with our own eyes yesterday. He was killed by that female ghost … killed." The two panicked, and their voices trembled as they spoke.
"Those three jumped off the building today. Why, why is he still here?"
The two could not help but shiver as a chill crawled up their spines.
"Unit 5 …"
"Clang!"
A loud noise suddenly rang out in the noisy classroom. Instantly, the whole class turned to look at the source of the sound.
The teacher on the podium was angry. He pushed up the glasses on his nose. "Lu Bing, what's wrong with you?"
"I, I'm sorry, sir. I, I didn't sit properly." The boy called Lu Bing fell to the ground. The table and chairs fell to the ground, and the books fell on his body.
The boy who wrestled was sitting in the row behind Gu Xizhou. Gu Xizhou put down the English book in his hand and reached out to grab Lu Bing. He picked him up from the ground and gave him a pat on the back. Feeling the boy's whole body stiffen, he was startled. Perhaps he did not like physical contact with him?
He naturally let go and picked up the table and chairs that fell to the ground. "Are you okay?"
"I, I'm fine …" Lu Bing's voice trembled. He sounded like he was about to cry. "I, I'm fine."
Gu Xizhou was speechless. He was just trying to help out of kindness. Why did this person look like his parents had died? It was like he was going to eat him alive!
"That's good." Seeing this, Gu Xizhou let go of his hand and sat back down. Even though he was unhappy, he did not say anything.
The English teacher on the podium said impatiently, "If you're fine, then sit down. Do you want me to invite you to sit down?"
Lu Bing's hands and feet were cold. After hearing Ms. Lin's words, he didn't react for a long time. It was only when the boy next to him tugged at his sleeve that he came back to his senses and sat down in a daze.
"Am, am I going to die today … I don't want to die yet. My wife is still waiting for me, waiting for me to come home …" Lu Bing broke down instantly. The big man collapsed on the table and sobbed.
The boy next to Lu Bing lowered his voice. "He must have been possessed by a female ghost. Keep your voice down. She might hear you."
"You'll be fine. This is not a death condition." The boy was relatively calm. His face was pale as he analyzed seriously.
"Then, could it be that their analysis is wrong …"
"That's impossible. The five people who died met the death condition, but we didn't!" Even though the boy said that, his heart still had doubts.
During the 20-minute morning self-study session, both of them were on tenterhooks. They were afraid that the person in front of them would turn into a female ghost if she turned around. They kept staring at the back of Gu Xizhou's head, their hearts in their throats!
"Class dismissed. On the podium, the teacher took the books and left in a hurry, leaving the students in the classroom. For a moment, the classroom was in an uproar.
"Lu Bing, why did the three people in your dorm commit suicide? Did they commit suicide while holding hands? " A boy came up behind Gu Xizhou and slapped the table of the two people behind him, asking teasingly.
The others also gathered around to ask questions. Gu Xizhou subconsciously turned his head to look at the two people. The three who had committed suicide were from his dormitory. The two empty beds in the dormitory last night belonged to these two people. These two people were actually his roommates.
Gu Xizhou joined in the conversation. "Do you know what happened? “
Their faces turned pale. They ran away in fright. "We, we didn't go back to the room last night!"
Gu Xizhou thought, "…" Their mental fortitude is too weak. They actually ran away in fear?
After the bell rang, Gu Xizhou sat in the back row. Lu Bing and Li He also changed seats to sit far away from Gu Xizhou.
The two stared at the back of Gu Xizhou's head in fear. Their hands and feet were cold and they were sweating.
The first class was the homeroom teacher's class. Because three people died this morning, the teacher came in and briefly explained what happened.
"The three students chose a path of no return because of the pressure of entering a higher school. I believe that the other students in our class have very good psychological qualities and won't be as weak as them. The remaining three students, Gu Ran, Lu Bing, and Li He, won't be staying in their original dormitories. Dormitories 105 and 106 are not full yet. Which one do you want to stay in? I'll arrange it for you."
Lu Bing and Li He both chose 106. Gu Xizhou looked at the two of them and smiled. They definitely knew what had happened in the dormitory last night, so when the teacher asked, he blurted out without thinking, "You and I will stay in 106 too."
Lu Bing and Li He saw Gu Xizhou's smile. It was as if they saw the Grim Reaper smiling at them. When they heard this, they subconsciously showed an expression as if their parents had died. They both jumped up. "Teacher, I regret it. I want to stay in 105!"
It was obvious that they didn't want to stay with him.
Gu Xizhou frowned as he looked at the two of them. Did they know something?
The language teacher was an impatient middle-aged man. He waved his hand impatiently. "You can stay however you want. You can discuss among yourselves."
After class, the two ran to the toilet in a panic.
Lu Bing glanced outside the toilet to make sure there was no one outside. He then said, "He died yesterday. I saw it with my own eyes. His neck was stabbed vertically by a fruit knife … But I don't know why he didn't jump with the other three …"
"How the f * ck would I know? Are you sure you didn't see wrongly yesterday? "Li He asked anxiously.
"I didn't see wrongly! He's really dead. There was such a knife. It went straight in from the top! "Lu Bing was also anxious. He even drew with his pen as he spoke.
Just as the two of them were talking, footsteps came from outside. The two of them immediately fell silent.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Dong dong dong!"
Li He and Lu Bing were so scared that they didn't dare to speak. They looked at each other, the fear in their eyes deepening.
"Hey, Li He, Lu Bing, come out. What's wrong with the two of you?"
Hearing this voice, the braver Li He peeked through the gap in the toilet door. The person outside rolled his eyes at him and said impatiently, "Come out quickly!"
"Brother Ma wanted me to ask you. What exactly happened yesterday?"
After confirming that the person outside wasn't Gu Ran, the two of them let out a long sigh of relief. Lu Bing calmed down and was able to speak properly.
"If the rules from before weren't wrong, then yesterday, yesterday he should have died. I saw the female ghost grab him with my own eyes!"
Hearing this, the two men and one woman looked at Lu Bing suspiciously. "You really saw it?"
"It's true. Not sleeping for three days is unbearable. I don't know when I fell asleep, but in my dream yesterday, Li He and I both saw him. He must have fallen asleep!"
"In the dream, the three of us ran into the female ghost. I saw with my own eyes that he was pierced by a fruit knife. There was a hole there. I was too scared, so I ran away. Then, I woke up from the dream. Then, because I was scared, I ran out last night and didn't sleep at all." Lu Bing's mind was still clear, and he recounted what had happened last night.
"Is the death condition that you analyzed accurate?" Li He was also scared, but he was better than Lu Bing. Now, he couldn't help but ask. He was a bit agitated.
"It shouldn't be a problem. The previous few people all died like this. If they died in their dreams, they would jump off a building the next day to commit suicide!" One of the boys frowned and said, "Brother Ma and the others are old people. They know more than us. If it wasn't for them analyzing the death condition, we wouldn't even know how we died!"
As they were talking, a boy who was going to the toilet suddenly walked in. That boy saw a girl in the toilet and was startled. He subconsciously looked up at the sign on the door.
Hmm … That's right.
The girl in the male toilet frowned. "Let's go back and tell Brother Ma about what happened last night!"
Ma Yu had a strange expression on his face when he heard their words. "Maybe there's a change in the rules."
"What should we do tonight? I don't want to stay with him! "
He was not the only one. The others were the same. The four girls were the same.
One of them suggested, "Then why don't we let him stay in Room 106 alone and the others stay in the same room?"
"No."
The girl was confused. "Why not?"
Li He said, "Brother Ma mentioned the rules. If everyone stays in the same room, we will be wiped out. Furthermore, we haven't slept for three days. Today is the fourth day. Who can withstand it? If we stay together, we will meet the ghost at the same time. The condition of the female ghost is to kill people in their dreams. Do you want us to die faster? "
Hearing Li He's explanation, the round-faced girl immediately reacted. She stuck out her tongue and said in distress, "Then what should we do?"
For a moment, the few of them were silent. No one was willing to stay with 'him', not even the brave Ma Yu.
A few of them stayed in Room 105. They immediately said, "No matter what, we won't go there! You guys in Room 106 can decide for yourselves who will stay! "
"Hmm …" Ma Yu's gaze swept across the four girls. "Room 106 will draw lots to choose one person to stay with him. The girls won't have to."
Hearing this, the girls were relieved that they had survived a disaster. Just as the four people in Room 106 were drawing lots, the back door was opened from the outside and a boy walked in.
It was obvious that the boy was with them. They did not hide their conversation from the boy and even talked about what had happened earlier.
"Drawing lots? No need. I'll stay with him in Room 106 tonight. "
A clear voice rang out. Everyone's eyes fell on the person who spoke. It was the boy they met in Gu Xizhou this morning.
Hearing this, Ma Yu was startled. He asked with uncertainty, "Are you sure?"
"Hmm." The boy nodded. Obviously, he did not take Ma Yu's question to heart. Instead, he continued to talk about the information he found today.
"I sent the girl to the infirmary just now. She said that the dead girl was raped by her classmate. The police came to the school to investigate the case. For some reason, the whole school knew that she was raped, causing her to be isolated by her classmates.
"Then, she committed suicide by jumping off a building. The school ordered them not to talk about this. That's why they were hesitant to tell us."
After that, the bell rang. Si Yao Xing walked to her seat and hesitated for a moment. She walked straight to the seat beside Gu Xizhou and sat down, leaving the dozen people looking at each other.
Xiao Lian grabbed the round-faced girl's hand and asked softly, "Si Ge, why are you so bold? What if … what if she's really dead? "
The round-faced girl swallowed her saliva and sat in her seat. "Si Ge and Brother Ma are people who have experienced several mission worlds. They definitely know more than us newbies."
Xiao Lian looked much better than when she broke down in the morning. However, her eyes were still red and she was not in the mood to listen to the class. "Why … why are we so unlucky? I've never done anything bad since I was young. Why do I have to go through all this?"
"How would I know?" The round-faced girl laughed bitterly.
Xiao Lian stared at the string of numbers in the air — 00: 00: 01. It was just a normal day, a normal shopping trip. How could she die?
On the first day in this world, she was very confused. Suddenly, a string of strange red numbers appeared in her vision. It was not until Brother Ma explained the meaning of the numbers that she realized that it was the countdown to her life.
00: 00: 01 meant that she, who was shopping, would die in the next second. Of course, there was also Brother Ma's last sentence. It was also the reason why they were trying so hard to survive here.
"Leave this world alive and you won't die."
