Chapter 9 Dormitory Civility Rules (V)

Objects were swept down, metal hit the ground, and the harsh friction sound of the wooden table being dragged sounded at the same time, announcing the anger of the black shadow.

Tang Xinjue calmly held the toilet plunger and focused all his attention on the black shadow.

After the hysterical scream, "Xiao Hong" asked grimly: "Did you deliberately lie to me so that I couldn't find the things and made a fool of myself on the date?"

The lines were exactly the same as those in the diary, and Tang Xinjue had even thought of the following words in his mind in advance.

Sure enough, "You bitches, I'm going to punish you!!!"

I don't know if it was an illusion, but as Xiaohong screamed, the ghost seemed to get longer and longer, with hair hanging down to the feet and covering the thin arms. The body soon became hunched because of the excessive length, and the head turned stiffly.

"I want you to... "

As if it was unbearable, the bed opposite suddenly shook heavily, and Zheng Wanqing's anxious voice rang out: "We didn't lie to you!"

Oops.

Tang Xinjue's heart suddenly sank, but it was too late to stop it. In the dim light, he could even see Zheng Wanqing sitting up from the bed, staring straight at Xiaohong: "We put everything we found on the table!"

Xiao Hong paused, her hoarse voice lengthened, and her previous rage was replaced by a weird tone: "Oh, really..."

The thin ghost turned around and approached bed number 2 step by step. His neck stretched forward impatiently, his hair hanging in the air. "Dear roommate, are you talking?"

The shadow was clearly two meters away, but the sound was right next to his ear. Tang Xinjue felt a pain in his throat, and a sweet and fishy taste came up.

"Dear roommate, did you hear me?"

As soon as he swallowed the fishy taste, a sharp pain spread from the inner ear canal, and his ear suddenly buzzed. Tang Xinjue frowned, knowing that the ghost's attack was triggered by his roommate.

At this moment, the black shadow had moved to bed number 2, with half of its body pressed against the curtain. She knew without thinking that the pale and hideous face was staring at Zheng Wanqing without blinking.

"Dear roommate, did you see my face?"

Before the pain in his eyeballs could erupt, Tang Xinjue suddenly raised the toilet plunger and hit the bed railing hard.

With a "dong" sound, Xiaohong's voice was successfully interrupted and its attention was attracted.

The footsteps turned and began to move towards Tang Xinjue. The giggling became clearer and soon it was close.

Tang Xin Jue said faintly, "Do you really want to find something to go on a date with? I think you seem quite happy that you couldn't find anything."

Xiao Hong: “…”

The ghost paused with his movements and laughter. After several seconds, he said coldly , "Of course I have to go on a date, but I can't go without finding something. It's all your fault!"

Tang Xin Jue: "What do you want to do to us ?"

Xiao Hong pressed herself against the bed curtains, her voice full of greed: "Either give me the things, or, like your missing roommate, be punished..."

Tang Xin Jue: "Zhang You? What did you do to her?"

"She will never appear again, just like your ending." Xiaohong tilted her head, and when she spoke, something like a tongue seemed to stick out and drag on the gauze curtain, making a sticky and disgusting sound.

"Dear roommate, why don't you open your eyes and look at me?"

From the moment she approached, Tang Xinjue closed his eyes and only relied on his ears to identify the other person's movements and position. "I kept my eyes open the whole time."

Xiao Hong: "Oh...really?"

It rubbed and moved on the gauze curtain suspiciously, "You are lying! You didn't even open your eyes!"

"I really have my eyes open. Is it too dark outside the bed curtains that you can't see clearly?"

Tang Xinjue's tone was firm.

Her voice is just like her appearance, thin and thin, and sounds soft, harmless and sincere.

Xiao Hong really lay on the bed curtain and looked carefully. After a while, she became furious: "Liar!!!"

Tang Xinjue had become numb to its deafening screams. In fact, the more angry it became, the calmer it became.

She had already confirmed one thing: Xiaohong couldn't get in through the bed curtains.

For two consecutive nights, it just lay outside, looking like it was trying to kill people face to face, but in fact there was a layer of gauze between them, and it never actually came into contact with people.

——The dormitory door is a layer of protection, and so is the bed curtain.

Even ghosts are most likely to be subject to conditions. As long as you are not bewitched and go out, the attacks you receive inside will be limited, and they will mostly be mental pollution.

Tang Xinjue remained calm about the common scenes in his nightmares and did not feel that he had been contaminated in any way.

She remained motionless and pretended to be dead. The more Xiaohong felt teased, the more angry she became. Half of her body was covered on the bed curtain, and her nails kept scratching on it, as if she was going to tear the curtain into pieces at any time. After half a day, she realized that she was in a state of impotent rage, so she calmed down and tried to induce Tang Xinjue to speak.

Tang Xinjue remained motionless, as if he was asleep.

Xiao Hong: "...Ah!! Go to hell!!!"

Amidst another round of screams, Tang Xinjue suddenly took out his cell phone from under the quilt and looked down at it.

Xiao Hong: "...You still have the mind to play with your phone!??"

Putting down the phone, Tang Xinjue suddenly said, "One more minute."

Xiao Hong subconsciously asked: "What?"

Tang Xin Jue: "There is one minute left, and it will be eight o'clock in the morning, the time for daybreak."

The time displayed on the phone is 7:35. According to the senses and time calculation at night, the speed of time at night should be 24 times faster. Xiaohong can only appear at night and will leave after dawn.

"This is a test of dormitory etiquette rules. You are also a member of the dormitory and will be subject to the same restrictions as the rest of us." Tang Xin Jue said softly, "By the way, your date tonight is canceled again."

Xiao Hong: “…”

Kill the ghost and destroy the heart???

It finally straightened its noodle-like body and looked directly at the human for the first time, its voice cold and hoarse.

"Tomorrow is the deadline. If you can't produce what I want tomorrow, everything will be left in the test and become the same as me. Hehe, I'll be waiting for you..."

The sound disappeared, the lights came on, Tang Xinjue opened his eyes and immediately checked the condition of Zheng Wanqing and Guo Guo.

Guo Guo stretched out a finger from under the quilt to prove that she was still alive, but Zheng Wanqing was motionless. There was a big bulge on the bed. When he lifted the quilt, he saw the girl curled up inside, her face ashen, and blood oozing from her ears and mouth.

"Wanqing!"

Tang Xin Jue immediately opened the other party's phone and saw the negative status:

[Unbearable Communication Health Value 30]

Another pop-up pops up immediately after the negative state:

[Achievement: Deceived Prey. Neutral Buff (short term): Reaction 5, Endurance +2, Endurance Limit +1]

[Buff effect: short-term coma]

Tang Xinjue's heart relaxed slightly. If Wanqing was unconscious because of the Buff, then the situation was not the worst.

She opened her [Identity Information] and saw a new reminder:

[Communication health value 2 exceeded the limit]

[Achievement: Angry NPC. Positive Buff (short term): Reaction +5, Reaction Limit +2]

Click on the achievement again, and an explanation pops up on the screen:

[You never thought about it! If the NPC knew in advance that being mad at you would increase your achievements, it would never come to you.]
