Chapter 404 [Domain·Drowning] Wan Xiaoshuang's Death Date
1:40 a.m.
The boy gazed at the heavy rain outside the window, and no longer hesitated.
Zhu Guang and he took turns on duty. The boy was not asleep when the raindrops first started falling.
At first, he thought it would just drizzle for a while, and the real downpour wouldn't come until at least morning...
But he soon discovered that the rain outside was getting heavier.
With this level of rainfall, the dormitories will soon be flooded! This means that the dormitories will no longer be safe zones, and they must retreat to the teaching buildings as soon as possible.
A few minutes earlier, Li Yinghe, who had also noticed something was wrong, had secretly left the dormitory to join them.
"What do we do now?" Zhu Guang asked in a low voice.
"We can't worry about others now, let's retreat first," the boy said without thinking.
Going to the teachers' dormitory to call Chen Ji and the others is unrealistic; it's too far, requires a long detour, and given the current situation, it's extremely dangerous outdoors.
As for Wan Chengzhong...
He glanced silently at Wan Chengzhong's bed, making no intention of waking him up, since Li Yinghe's divination might be related to this person.
Better to be dead.
The boy's thoughts were very simple.
Having experienced so many battles, he had long since become accustomed to distrusting so-called "teammates." Sometimes, the person you saved one day might stab you in the back the next.
There were only two people he truly dared to entrust his back to.
Zhu Tou, who appears simple and honest but is actually shrewd; and Li Yinghe, the youngest and most straightforward girl, who almost died saving him.
The three of them went through thick and thin together, supporting each other through countless life-or-death situations.
There were only the three of them...
No matter what, we must survive this battle.
Pulling themselves out of their thoughts, they grabbed flashlights and sneaked out of the dormitory.
Outside, the rain was pouring down, making it almost impossible to see the road. Tongzi and Zhu Guang shielded Li Yinghe in the middle, and the three of them silently made their way towards the teaching building.
However, as Zhu Guang passed by the girls' dormitory, he suddenly noticed something unusual.
Under the light of a flashlight, the door to the girls' dormitory was slightly ajar.
This will cause the girls' dormitory to flood even faster!
The room was completely silent and dark; nothing could be seen at all...
Just then, Zhu Guang was startled. Li Yinghe suddenly turned off the flashlight in his hand!
Her face looked terrible, and her voice was barely audible.
"The door was closed when I came out."
A simple sentence sent a chill down Zhu Guang's spine, and he immediately withdrew his hand that was about to push the door open.
My hands felt slippery.
It is a water plant.
No one expected that not long after Li Yinghe left the girls' dormitory, a water ghost would enter the girls' dormitory!
Were they members of a tour group, or...?
A middle school student ghost?
The three of them looked at each other.
The girls' dormitory remained quiet.
Zhu Guang sniffed lightly, his heart sinking as a faint smell of blood mixed with the scent of rain wafted into his nostrils.
"Go straight to the teaching building, hurry up, I feel something's not right."
The boy murmured to himself, and for some reason, a chill suddenly ran down his spine, as if something else was lurking in the pitch-black rain...
It could threaten their lives.
Without hesitation, the three of them took off running, braving the heavy rain to quickly escape towards the teaching building!
Fortunately, the doors and windows on the second and third floors were tightly closed. The teaching building was of much better quality than the self-built dormitory, and no rainwater leaked in.
The upper floor offers a panoramic view of the entire loess slope.
But it was too dark down there, and with the torrential rain, we couldn't see anything until a beam of light appeared from the direction of the teachers' dormitory!
A figure, carrying a flashlight, hurriedly ran towards the student dormitory.
This person was none other than Teacher Zhan!
He didn't even wear a raincoat and ran wildly. He heard a few muffled shouts, and a few minutes later, a large group of people ran out of the boys' dormitory.
"Tsk."
Tongzi frowned. He seemed to see Wan Chengzhong come out as well, but he disappeared in an instant.
Not long after, several extremely terrified screams suddenly rang out from the girls' dormitory!
“Someone’s dead!!”
The boy's back broke out in a cold sweat, and the three of them quickly exchanged glances, their eyes revealing a hint of tension.
Just as they expected.
Not long after Li Yinghe escaped, a water ghost sneaked into the girls' dormitory.
Fortunately, Li Yinghe was lucky enough not to be caught by the ghost...
......
In a classroom on the second floor of the teaching building.
Chen Ji withdrew his gaze and said solemnly, "A ghost entered the girls' dormitory. I don't know if it's still inside."
On the ground, Wan Xiaoshuang, soaked to the bone, was laying Hong Tian flat.
After Teacher Zhan called for help, there was chaos outside. The two of them didn't have time to talk and hurriedly escaped into the teaching building by blending into the crowd.
Only then did I have time to catch my breath.
Wan Xiaoshuang didn't check the commotion downstairs, but instead said directly:
"I know what a substitution method is now."
"It's hair."
"Li Bi cut my hair in my dream."
"Can things from dreams be brought out?" Chen Ji was taken aback.
Wan Xiaoshuang shook her head: "No."
“I tried, but I couldn’t get it out, but Li Bi didn’t take my hair out in a dream.”
"You mean..." Chen Ji's eyes flashed, "She dragged you outside?"
"Correct."
Wan Xiaoshuang nodded.
Whether Li Bi was aware of it or not, she did leave traces outdoors by sheer accident!
Wan Xiaoshuang was the first to wake up.
She found mud and water stains on her pants.
Logically speaking, whatever they did in Teacher Zhan's room during their dream, based on Tongzi and Chenji's experience, it wouldn't affect their condition when they woke up; they would still be perfectly fine, lying on their makeshift beds on the floor.
The same thing happened when Wan Xiaoshuang was woken up by Teacher Zhan.
And when Ah Gou was taken away by the drowned ghost, the door was also tightly closed.
Recalling what Chen Ji had said before, that the dream was confined to the room, she couldn't help but make a bold guess:
That is, even though she is dreaming, once she leaves the house in her dream, the traces of the outside world will be imprinted on her in reality.
It's raining outside. If someone is awake and watching Wan Xiaoshuang, then when Wan Xiaoshuang goes out in her dream, raindrops will appear on her sleeping body.
That's why, after Ah Gou died, his body disappeared, but the bed was soaked.
When she woke up, she indeed found that her hair had been cut off, but Li Bi's hair did not.
"Before I woke you up, I cut off a bit of Li Bi's hair with a knife and stuffed it into her pocket."
Wan Xiaoshuang wiped the rain off her face and said calmly, "After Li Bi finds that she doesn't have my hair, she will definitely make another move. Rather than waiting passively, we should have Wan Chengzhong replace Li Bi with her."
"But before I could do anything, I discovered... that the drowned ghost corresponding to me had appeared in the water bottle I had hidden."
She took out her water bottle; the water inside was very clear.
It said:
"Your death is tomorrow night."
A hint of helplessness appeared in Wan Xiaoshuang's eyes: "I think I already know what triggering the taboo of being haunted by a ghost is."
Chen Ji frowned, but then he realized what was going on.
Li Bi and Wan Chengzhong must have experienced the same thing.
The reason they were so eager to find a substitute for their own death was partly because the ghosts had given them a definite date of death, bringing immense psychological pressure.
