The room fell into silence again, no one wanted to think about whether Liang Kaifeng was dead or how he died. Shi Yitong and I may be okay, we have experienced many terrible things together, but my three roommates who are usually carefree, can clearly read the solemnity and fear from their faces at this time.
Fear... yes.
Someone died right in front of us, dangling from the classroom ceiling. A few days ago—no, maybe a few hours ago, he was a student like us, attending classes, eating, and talking like us, a bit annoying, but definitely a real person.
Now he has turned into a breathing corpse, and no one even knows whether he is alive or not.
"I quit!"
In the midst of extreme silence, Zhou Lang stood up suddenly and said loudly, "I quit, I quit!"
"Zhou Lang!" Di Zizhen immediately called out his name, but unexpectedly received a more intense reaction.
"I don't care! It has nothing to do with me!" Zhou Lang shouted out of control, "I didn't expect things to turn out like this when I promised to help! It doesn't matter if it's haunted or knocking on the door in the middle of the night, go find your yin and yang Teacher is still something, it has nothing to do with me!"
"Zhou Lang! Can you calm down!" Di Zizhen stood up and stood in front of me to stop Zhou Lang.
"Calm down? How can I calm down!" Zhou Lang yelled at Di Zizhen, "Someone died! It's in our school, our college, someone we know! I swear, I swear I saw this morning He was walking in the corridor well, how could he be dead in the afternoon! What will happen next? Will the police investigate the murderer? Will I be suspected? We, we will all be suspected!"
"Calm down!" Di Zizhen covered Zhou Lang's with a louder voice, and stepped forward to grab the excited Zhou Lang's shoulder, "We don't know what's going on now! Is the person dead? Not sure yet!"
"Are you an idiot? Didn't you see Liang Kaifeng's appearance!" Zhou Lang became even more excited, "That can't be a living person at all! It's just a corpse! A corpse that can breathe!"
"I'll quit too." At this juncture, Qi Bojian also stood up suddenly. He looked calmer than Zhou Lang, but his forehead was full of sweat, "I admit, at first we were just curious about where Gu Yu was. Where to work, but I didn't expect so many things to happen later. To be honest, I would rather not know all this from the beginning, and I would not think about it now. I, I still have to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination, and social practice. Homework... I can't waste so much time on this kind of thing."
"Yes, what the third child said is correct." Zhou Lang was the first to stride to the door and opened it, then looked back at us, "You guys are lucky."
Then Qi Bojian followed Zhou Lang and walked out of the dormitory.
"Hey! You two!" Di Zi was so angry that he wanted to chase him out, but I grabbed him.
"Stop chasing, things are already bad. Let them go." I sighed, "It's justifiable for them to do this, it's no big deal."
"Damn it, they are all cowards who ran away!" Di Zizhen cursed.
"Don't say that, people are selfish. If I were replaced by me before, I guess the reaction would not be much different." I comforted.
"The old you?" Di Zizhen turned his gaze to me, "Gu Yu, what have you experienced since you met that demon exorcising master?"
I smiled wryly in my heart, but just shook my head and didn't say anything.
"Speaking of the demon master," Shi Yitong stood up, patted the table and looked at me, "You don't think we can solve this problem by ourselves, do you?"
I shook my head in frustration, "Okay, I'll listen to you this time. Let's go find Wen Jiubai."
"Then I'll..." Di Zizhen seemed to want to help, so I quickly pushed him down.
"No, no, no, boss, don't come." I said sincerely, "This matter is very evil, and it is easy to cause trouble if you act rashly. And you have nothing to do with this matter. I was the one who involved you in the first place. It was my fault."
"Gu Xiaoyu, you're here again." Di Zizhen said with a sigh.
I was taken aback, "What happened again?"
"That's what I like about you." Di Zizhen stood up suddenly and rubbed my head, messing up all my short hair.
"Hey!"
"Okay, you guys go find that demon extermination master, you must be careful." Di Zizhen suddenly seemed not to know where to put his hands, shaking in the air, and finally patted me on the shoulder, " If anything happens, just give me a call."
I nodded gratefully, then pulled Shi Yitong out of the dormitory.
—————————————
"If it's just one case, maybe the school can handle it well."
On the way, Shi Yitong spoke in frustration.
"Are you worried that there will be other..."
Shi Yitong nodded, "I'm worried that Liang Kaifeng won't be the last one. Aren't there many people who hit ghosts in the middle of the night in school? And they all disappeared, I'm afraid..."
I nodded, and subconsciously stopped Shi Yitong from speaking next, but I understood what he meant.
If Liang Kaifeng was the first, then those who disappeared... would most likely be the next to die.
"My God, if something happens to Su Xiaoyun..." Shi Yitong squatted down suddenly, and said annoyedly, "I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life."
I hurriedly pulled Shi Yitong up, and the moment I pulled him up, I saw his eyes flushed.
I was taken aback, and my nose became sour.
"You really, to Su Xiaoyun..."
"Nonsense." Shi Yitong wiped his eyes twice with his sleeve indiscriminately, and muttered, "I haven't married Goddess Su yet, so I absolutely can't just let her die like this. Let's go! Let's go find that Wen Jiubai!"
I nodded, turned around, and when I was about to walk towards the school gate, I suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?" Shi Yitong looked over suspiciously.
"Uh, I think we've found him." I said dryly, pointing in the direction of the school gate.
In the direction I was looking, there was a particularly eye-catching red Ferrari. There were many people looking there besides us. While I was saying this, the door of the Ferrari was opened, and Wen Jiubai was wearing a close-fitting suit. The suit got out of the car. He tied his long hair into a ponytail and tied it high behind his head. He unbuttoned three of his shirt buttons, showing a trace of laziness in his dignity.
Then he saw me stunned from a long distance away, smiling like a fox.
