"They used someone else's identity to enroll in a university. These students who were supposed to enroll in a university didn't go to school and ended up on different paths at the crossroads of fate," Gu Xizhou said. "Now, it's not a replacement. It's a complete exchange of lives."
Si Yu held the note with the woman's identity and whispered, "Since Qi Fei and the others took all their hard work for the first half of their lives, they might as well hand over the second half of their lives to them. Isn't that fair?"
"It's probably because she was impersonated … Even if she's imprisoned, no one knows that the real her is missing." Si Yu pointed at the corpse on the floor.
Because of the woman's corpse, there were many flies and mosquitoes flying around in the room. They buzzed and flew around in all directions. The headless flies kept bumping into people's faces and bodies.
Normally, this kind of dark environment would make people uncomfortable. However, Si Yu seemed to be immune to it because he had experienced many different worlds. Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi, on the other hand, were familiar with the environment because they had seen many crime scenes.
Just as the three of them were talking, they heard a noise. The three of them turned around at the same time to look in the direction of the sound.
Fang Zhi frowned and pointed at the corpse on the floor. "She wasn't here just now. I remember that she was lying in there a little …"
Hearing Fang Zhi's words, the woman on the floor suddenly changed her ferocious expression. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly as if she was smiling …
"Run!"
Si Yu looked at the smiling woman on the floor and shouted at Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi.
After opening the door, Si Yu gestured for Gu Xizhou to follow.
Gu Xizhou glanced at the woman lying on the floor behind him. Just as he was about to slap her, someone suddenly grabbed his wrist. It was Si Yu who grabbed him and dragged Gu Xizhou out of the room without looking back.
After running for a long time, they still remembered that they couldn't go up to the fourth floor or take the path of death. They opened a classroom door and closed it. The entire process took less than half a second.
Fang Zhi heaved a long sigh of relief and covered his wildly beating heart with his hand.
Since they had passed by the woman's room earlier, they were even more careful. The three of them stayed in the classroom for a while, and then they heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside. There was someone standing in the corridor.
The three of them looked at each other, but before they could say anything, they heard that person speak.
"Who is it?" The man asked cautiously.
Gu Xizhou heard the voice and raised his eyebrows. He felt that the voice was familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.
"Baek Dong-yang?" Si Yu didn't answer the other party's question. Instead, he asked another question.
"It's me," Baek Dong-yang said excitedly. "Great, it's you!"
Baek Dong-yang walked out of the darkness and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Gu Xizhou's trio in the classroom.
Gu Xizhou was silent for a moment, then asked, "What about the other two people with you?"
"We just entered a classroom … no … maybe it wasn't a classroom. It was a room, and there was a woman in it. The woman was lying on the ground and suddenly smiled at us. The three of us turned around and ran, and then we got separated. I don't know where they are. "
"Got separated?" Gu Xizhou asked.
He nodded with a pale face, as if he hadn't recovered from the fear he had just experienced. He trembled in fear and said, "What should we do now? Go find them? "
"Well, let's find them first," Gu Xizhou said. "By the way, did you find anything useful in that room?"
"No …" Baek Dong-yang replied. "When we went in and saw the body, we were too scared, so we turned around and ran away. Did you find anything? "
Si Yu glanced at Baek Dong-yang and said softly, "We didn't find anything either. Take us to the others first."
The four of them left the classroom and walked to the corridor. Baek Dong-yang said as he walked, "I'll take you to that room first."
"Okay, take us there," Si Yu replied without hesitation. "We'll find them as soon as possible."
Si Yu tapped Gu Xizhou's back twice. Gu Xizhou turned around and glanced at him. The two of them quickly communicated with their eyes. Because they had been through several worlds together, the two of them had a tacit understanding.
Gu Xizhou and Si Yu slowed down and followed behind Baek Dong-yang. Gu Xizhou was about to ask a question when he noticed Si Yu's faint smile and pointed to the ground.
He looked at the ground and found that Baek Dong-yang was nowhere to be seen.
Walking in the corridor, Fang Zhi's sharp eyes saw a figure lying on the ground in front of him. The figure was lying motionless on the ground. The voice-activated light that had just dimmed turned on again, allowing him to see that the person lying on the ground was Xia Hang.
"Someone, someone's dead!" Baek Dong-yang's legs turned to jelly. He leaned against the wall and didn't dare to move.
The moment he saw Xia Hang's head, Fang Zhi gasped. Xia Hang's death was exactly the same as the people who had walked the Path of Death a few days ago. Fang Zhi calculated the path he had taken and squatted down to carefully examine the body on the ground. He shook his head at Gu Xizhou and the others. "He's dead."
Gu Xizhou didn't hesitate to touch the skin of the body. He said in a professional manner, "His body is still warm. He hasn't been dead for long."
"He probably forgot that he couldn't walk the Path of Death when he was escaping," Gu Xizhou said.
Si Yu nodded. He looked at the blood on the ground and said calmly, "Let's find the others."
Baek Dong-yang, who was walking in front, kept talking. He kept saying that he was scared and tried to find something to talk about to distract them. However, Si Yu ignored him and followed silently behind him.
When they reached a corner, Baek Dong-yang stood at the corner and looked at Gu Xizhou and the others blankly. He asked, "Why are you walking so slowly? Hurry up!"
Fang Zhi raised his eyebrows and stopped. "This is the left. We've already turned left once."
"Ah!"
Baek Dong-yang was stunned. He stood there and cried, "What should we do? Don't leave me. I don't want to be alone. It'll be fine as long as we don't go to the right!"
Fang Zhi was a little hesitant, but he couldn't leave him behind. Before Si Yu could say anything, Gu Xizhou smiled and said, "Okay."
The three of them turned left and went down the stairs. They walked to the intersection. On their right was the skywalk that led to the opposite building. They were about to turn left when they heard rustling footsteps.
A person walked over from the left. He was about to call out to them when he suddenly looked terrified. He turned around and ran, shouting, "I'm the real Baek Dong-yang! It's not me who's with you! It's not me! "
Baek Dong-yang, who was standing on the left, seemed very scared. His body stiffened and he said, "No … no, believe me. I'm the real Baek Dong-yang!"
Gu Xizhou and Si Yu glanced at him and didn't say anything. They grabbed Fang Zhi and turned left.
"You really believe me?" He was a little shocked.
Gu Xizhou glanced at him. "…" Even ghosts have so many tricks up their sleeves? You're not an actor. You don't even have a trace of acting.
Si Yu: "…"
Halfway there, with the fake Baek Dong-yang walking behind, Gu Xizhou and the others suddenly heard something fall to the ground. It seemed to be very soft. The sound of it falling to the ground was very soft.
Gu Xizhou turned around and met the fake Baek Dong-yang's gaze. The fake Baek Dong-yang revealed a cold smile. "Do you want to see what I dropped?" He said as he moved his hand away from the ground.
Fang Zhi's sharp eyes glanced at it and recognized that it was a human lung. His face turned pale immediately.
At the same time, Gu Xizhou stepped forward and stepped on half of the lung on the ground. The fake Baek Dong-yang didn't know where to put his hand for a moment.
Seeing the fake Baek Dong-yang's shocked expression, Gu Xizhou squatted down and picked up the crushed lung on the ground. He put it in the fake's hand. "Keep important things properly. Don't drop them on the ground. It's not good if they're trampled on like this."
It: "…"
After a moment of silence, it asked doubtfully, "You already knew that I wasn't human?"
When Gu Xizhou and Si Yu nodded, Fang Zhi saw them nod so calmly. He shook his head at the fake Baek Dong-yang.
"Why didn't you run?" he asked.
Fang Zhi squeezed his right hand with his left hand and said sadly, "My legs are weak …"
Gu Xizhou: "Actually, I'm not afraid of ghosts."
Seeing it look at him, Si Yu thought for a moment and decided to be merciful and tell it, "Xia Hang triggered the Path of Death because he was scared by you in a panic. Since you want to use the Path of Death to kill people, it means that your method of death hasn't appeared yet. Or, the condition of your death is so harsh that you can't even kill people."
Blood quickly flowed out of its body, turning it into a bloody man in an instant.
"Ah —" He roared angrily and used all his strength to stare at the three of them fiercely, like a cold poisonous snake staring at them.
"It doesn't matter how much blood there is." Gu Xizhou waved his hand and looked at the ghost with disdain. "It's not like dying a horrible death can scare people."
Fang Zhi seemed to have heard Si Yu's explanation and understood that the ghost couldn't touch them. He continued Gu Xizhou's words and said seriously and objectively, "Actually, it didn't die a horrible death. The one we found at Fenghuang Mountain was more miserable … It was dismembered. I vomited at the time. Although its body was full of holes, at least it was still whole."
It was stunned. The person in front of it was the only one who was scared by it. Why was this guy telling it so seriously … that it didn't die a horrible death?
It seemed to be angry and said provocatively, "I hope that when my method of death appears, you can still talk to me so leisurely."
Gu Xizhou stood at the side and watched it leave coldly.
"It was hacked to death by a knife," Si Yu suddenly said in a low voice.
Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and looked at him. He leaned against the wall and put his hands in his trouser pockets. "Anyone with eyes would know that after he dropped out of school, he learned Hong Kong films and became a gangster. In the end, he was hacked to death."
Fang Zhi, who had recovered, walked over and stared at the two of them pitifully. "Why … why didn't you tell me? Huhuhu! "
Gu Xizhou raised the corner of his mouth and smiled at him. Suddenly, he said, "If I told you, you would have screamed in fear."
Gu Xizhou turned to Si Yu and said, "There must be a reason why it appeared in such a hurry. I'm guessing it has something to do with the real Su Xiaomian."
"Qi Fei didn't know that he was going to starve to death. Li Jia should have died a long time ago. She knew the cause of her death. Only the NPC Su Xiaomian, who came to us, didn't die immediately. Instead, she received … a hint from a woman," Si Yu said in a low voice. "They shouldn't be on the same side."
"The short-haired woman has a different motive from them," Gu Xizhou thought for a moment and said, "Before she replaced Su Xiaomian, she gave her a hint."
Gu Xizhou looked at the umbrella in his hand and said, "She drowned to death. It should be today. She gave us the umbrella to tell us not to get wet."
Si Yu nodded. "That should be the case."
"Which one of them has the door?" Gu Xizhou was more concerned about this question.
Si Yu said, "It should be the short-haired woman. The mission world wouldn't give her a mission that would definitely kill her."
As they were talking, they bumped into Cheng Yue and the other two people. The three people's faces were pale. When they talked about seeing Xia Hang's body on the road, they were trembling all over. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, they walked around the school building and found Xiao Yue hiding in a corner. One of the girls supported Xiao Yue and they walked to the first floor of the classroom.
When they passed by the washroom, Gu Xizhou pointed at the washroom by the door and said, "I'm going to the washroom. You guys wait for me outside."
Fang Zhi looked at the empty corridor and nodded. "Okay, do you want us to go with you?"
"No," Gu Xizhou waved his hand. "I'm not a primary school student."
Si Yu just told him to hurry up. The other two girls went into the washroom together.
Walking into the toilet, Gu Xizhou had just finished his business and was washing his hands. Suddenly, there was a rhythmic knocking sound coming from a closed toilet cubicle behind him. "Dong dong dong, dong dong dong."
Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and looked back at the closed washroom door. As expected, the floor of the cubicle was covered in red blood. The blood flowed all over the floor and all the way to Gu Xizhou's feet.
Gu Xizhou looked at the closed wooden door and walked over.
"Dong dong dong — —"
"Dong dong dong — —"
In the dark and damp environment of the washroom, it was easy to feel depressed. It was a good choice to scare people in such a place. Unfortunately … it met the wrong person.
Gu Xizhou walked over and kicked the door open. The monster that was inside the washroom quickly rushed in front of Gu Xizhou and pressed its face against Gu Xizhou's. Gu Xizhou could still smell the blood on its body.
"Are you so scared that you can't speak?" It curled its lips and licked its lips with its red tongue.
"Yes, I'm very scared." Gu Xizhou looked at it and thought to himself, 'Oh, I'm giving you a lesson and you're panting.'
Unexpectedly, the man who said he was scared didn't turn around and run away. Instead, he took another step into the cubicle and closed the door behind him.
Gu Xizhou rolled up his sleeves and smiled at it. 'You didn't take the path to heaven but chose to come to hell.'
It was speechless. Something wasn't right.
