"You said you wanted to chat with me, how can you leave? I still have something to give you..."
The voice of No. 13 behind him entered the ear curtains, but it seemed to be a strange husky female voice. Stinging Orofe's neural network like a reptile.
"I don't want it, I don't want to read it, let me go back!"
Ou Ruofei wanted to run, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead, and she could only move slowly on the ground, tears swirling wildly in her eyes. I regretted so much why I didn't notice anything just now, as if I had lost my soul.
It wasn't until the protective necklace around her neck suddenly shattered into fragments, and the sharp fragments cut her skin, and felt the pain, that she suddenly woke up, and finally thought of running away.
Her legs couldn't move as if she was stuck in a swamp, and Orofe almost collapsed, shouting for help, hoping that other people sleeping in the dormitory could wake up.
The bedroom was quiet, as if no one heard her call for help. Ou Ruofei moved forward desperately, and finally moved to her bed. She remembered that she hid the rest of the protective necklace under the pillow, as long as she got...
There was a rustling sound from above, as if a gauze curtain was moving. She raised her head and saw that the curtain of the upper bunk in front of her had opened a gap at some point, and No. 15's face was stuck in the gap, staring at her lifelessly.
Orofe screamed in dismay, not because of No. 15's head, but because of being grabbed by the wrist. In order to break free subconsciously, he turned around and bumped into a pair of pitch-black eyeballs.
And a blue and white face that is close at hand, covering the entire field of vision of her.
"ah!!!"
Boom! !
Tang Xinjue kicked open the door, and the two broke into the bedroom one after another.
As far as the eye can see, the dormitory is extremely quiet, everyone is sleeping peacefully in their own beds, and there is no trace of the accident scene.
Jiang Lan frowned: "Are you sure that the cry for help you heard was in the dormitory?"
Tang Xinjue remained silent, the extreme fear still remained in her telepathy, but the subject of fear seemed to have evaporated from the world.
She walked towards Orofe's bed No. 14 without hesitation, and lifted the curtain. The girl lay peacefully on the bed, with no trace of fear on her face.
Is she wrong? still…
She contacted Guo Guo and the others in her mind. At the same time, Jiang Lan strode to her roommate's bed. The next moment, they turned their heads at the same time and looked at each other: "This is not our dormitory!"
Guo Guo was woken up with sleepy eyes, and was handed a broom before he woke up.
Yes, it's a new day and she has to clean up.
After a few scans, No. 13 suddenly stopped her: "The order has changed today, you go to the bathroom to clean."
Looking at the smile on No. 13's face, Guo Guo was stunned for a moment but didn't think much of it. Soon he yawned and went to the bathroom, saw No. 15 who was cleaning the mirror, and said hello: "Good morning."
No. 15 didn't answer, and was still slowly cleaning the mirror, the rag scratching the glass with harsh rubbing sounds.
Guo Guo felt that something was wrong. She looked at the broom in her hand, but couldn't remember it. Then I had nothing to say: "By the way, have you seen my roommates? Why didn't I see them..."
Before she finished speaking, the broom swept a hard box, and she paused.
No. 15 said slowly: "This is a gift from me, pick it up and have a look."
Guo Guo: ... When you give someone a gift, do you just throw it on the ground and wait for someone to pick it up
She opened her eyes wide and stared at the box on the ground for a while, without bending down, she swallowed twice.
For some reason, she resisted. The aching brow seemed to be reminding her of something.
Still urging on the 15th, Guo Guo subconsciously replied, "Why don't you pick it up yourself?"
There was silence behind him.
In the silence, Guo Guo finally saw the source of what made her feel wrong—the yin and yang eyes were gradually operating amidst the stinging pain, and she witnessed a black air escaping from the ground and covering the box.
Guo Guo: "..."
No. 15's light voice sounded from behind: "I want to help you pick it up too, but my hand was caught, it hurts so much..."
Guo Guo turned his head stiffly, looked at the girl standing upright in front of the mirror, and a bloody mirror came into view.
It turned out that No. 15 didn't clean the mirror with a rag just now, but with her own hand—the girl's entire wrist was submerged in the mirror. Every time she moved, the skin was cut by the sharp mirror, and blood gurgled out as she moved.
In the field of vision, the girl in the mirror rolled her eyes and gave her a weird smile.
This is not the face of number 15 at all!
Guo Guo screamed loudly, frantically calling other roommates in his mind, and at the same time turned around to open the door and run away.
However, the bathroom door was tightly locked, no matter how hard she bumped it, she couldn't open it, and there was no response in her mind.
"Help! God! Miss! Sister You!" Guo Guo knocked on the door in despair, then suddenly remembered that there was still an APP, and hurriedly took out his phone in a panic—
A distorted girl's face was reflected on the screen, and No. 13 squeezed out a distorted smile with tape wrapped around her mouth.
Shaking his hand reflexively, the phone fell to the ground with a slap, and slid along the ground to the door of the compartment. Two figures who were tearing were reflected on the screen.
Guo Guo's mind was agitated, and he immediately ran up and kicked open the door of the compartment. With a slight tearing sound, Ah Nian's struggling and panicked figure appeared in front of him.
Orofe, with a stiff expression, was grabbing her wrist, trying to put a black bracelet on it: "This is what I gave you, a gift for you..."
Before it was fully put on, Ou Ruofei was suddenly grabbed by the collar of the back of her neck, and she slid out with Guo Guo's forceful tug.
"Gift, gift..." O'Ruofei raised her hands, still trying to move, but was sent out of the cubicle by Guo Guo's elbow, and then slammed the door shut.
The two living people hid in the toilet cubicle while panting and staring at each other. Finally, Guo Guo took out the water drop jade pendant and confirmed that "A Nian" in front of him was not in danger.
"What's going on here? What's going on with them? What's the gift? Where did everyone else go?"
Asking out all the doubts in one breath, Anian shook his head in a daze, and didn't know what to ask.
Guo Guo felt his brain jumping, grabbed his mobile phone and called the dormitory, but as expected, he still couldn't get through.
No, something is wrong, why did things suddenly become like this, I always feel something is wrong...
It's just that before she could figure it out, the compartment door made a weird clicking sound, and she fell on her back.
No. 15, whose hands were bleeding, No. 13, whose face was covered with tape, and Orofe, who was pale and stiff, crowded head to head at the door, staring at them expressionlessly.
…
…
One, two, three, tried all 14 sleeping "classmates", Tang Xinjue's face sank like water: "I'm not sure what they are, but they are definitely not people we know."
Rather than saying that all 14 people were replaced in the few seconds when they rushed back, it is better to say that the entire space was replaced. The two tried all the methods and found that they could not contact their roommates.
The dormitory, corridor and bathroom are all shrouded in extreme silence, like a silent cage, and there is no exit to return to reality.
They are stuck here.
"What is this?" Jiang Lan leaned against the bed rail with a wry smile. After finding out that she lost contact with her roommate, she almost went crazy, and coughed violently for a long time due to emotional agitation. Her already hoarse throat was bleeding, and she could only speak breathlessly.
Tang Xinjue twisted his fingers one by one, his gentle expression turned into indifference and silence, and there was no trace of superfluous expression.
This is what she originally looked like.
After sorting out her thoughts in half a minute, she said suddenly: "It's a dream."
"What?"
"This is a dream." Tang Xinjue raised his eyelids, and his pupils reflected the contours of the space. "It is so vivid because it is drawn from our memories, so it has no exit. Our consciousness is trapped here."
In the bathroom, she was still in spiritual contact with Guo Guo and the other three, but after receiving the fear signal from Ou Ruofei, she forgot to check the situation of her roommates in the dormitory first, and rushed back without thinking.
Presumably since then, she and Jiang Lan have been disturbed to a certain extent. Just like when a person is dreaming, part of him is often in a state of confusion and cannot think fully.
Jiang Lan: "Is it impossible to be a different dimension or an illusion?"
Tang Xinjue: "It's possible, but not very likely. If this is a different space, then it has no solution in terms of initiative. It's like being thrown into a temporary dungeon, and we can only passively wait for it to come up with a question. From Emotionally, I personally would not accept that possibility."
Seeing her speak so bluntly, Jiang Lan was taken aback: "Why?"
Tang Xinjue: "We can wait, what about the others?"
There is a high probability that not only the two of them are the ones who fell into the dream passively, but considering the sudden emotion of O'Ruofei, it may even be everyone.
She continued: "I'm not afraid of ghosts that appear in my dreams. As long as they show up, I have my own way to deal with them. You should be able to do the same, right?"
Jiang Lan closed her eyes and understood what Tang Xinjue meant.
"I can, and Ke Ke can... but Ah Nian can't."
Once everyone is dispersed, the weaker roommates will definitely face the greatest danger, and they are beyond their reach.
The dungeon doesn't need to bother attacking powerful people, it just needs to trap them, just like now—
She stood up abruptly: "Is there a way for us to get out?"
Tang Xinjue: "If it's a dream or hallucination, there is, but there may be a price to pay."
On the other side, the expression on the other side was serious and ready, but Tang Xinjue said, "Block your ears."
Jiang Lan:
In a blink of an eye, Tang Xinjue's palm flashed brightly, and a genuine... toilet punch appeared.
Jiang Lan:?
At the same time as the ears were blocked, the rubber head of the toilet seat suddenly began to vibrate, and in the next second, an overwhelming ghostly scream erupted from inside, sweeping the entire space!
prickly—
Like a mirror being shattered, a crack quietly appeared, and then a second... Spider web-like cracks were densely packed across the air.
Then it shattered.
