Chapter 41 The Lock on the Window

"Squeak--"
When Yu Xing moved directly below the dormitory manager duty room, he could clearly hear the sound of mice separated by a wall. The height was not high, probably at the dormitory manager's calf.
He was more careful and rubbed over little by little. The girls' dormitory was next to the boy's dormitory, facing the same direction. The duty room was a small room opened separately in front of the boy's dormitory gate, which was equivalent to a protruding one. From the angle of the duty room, you can see the door of the girls' dormitory at the same time.
So if Yu Xing wanted to sneak in, he had to go around the back of the dormitory building and then climbed through the window into the female dormitory building.
He knew how sensitive the mouse's hearing and smell was, so even when mobilizing the power of the curse, he was still extremely cautious and always paid attention to the movements of the female dormitory manager.
Two minutes later, he successfully arrived at the corner of the duty room with almost 0 decibels, changed to a stand, and bowed to stay away from the dormitory building.
Until he was far away, Yu Xing put his hips on his hips and sighed: "Huh..."
For him, hiding is harder than intimidation and fighting, which is not his strength - mainly because he is in a bad state and must save the power of curses, otherwise he will lose his body as he uses it.
In fact, for a moment, he seemed to feel the female dormitory manager's gnawing sound stopped, but it was almost a momentary pause, and everything was as usual.
Yu Xing looked back and thought flashed in his eyes.
How likely is the female dormitory manager deliberately pretending to not find him?
He remembered this in silence and walked forward.
Behind the dormitory building is a small wood with small trees and low density. Zhao Mou was responsible for the investigation before. According to Zhao Mou, there are no ghosts in this wood, but there are lanyards on many low branches.
I don't know who put it on.
Among the students who have been counting on many classes, many people have chosen to cut themselves off in the woods due to pressure and other things. What’s strange is that none of these souls has formed resentment and disappeared without a trace.
Yu Xing had to go through the woods now, which was equivalent to going around a big circle, so that he could safely. He stepped into the woods. Sure enough, before he walked, he saw a pale circle of rope hanging from a branch in front of him.
He sensed that there was no breath nearby, so he walked forward, looked up for a while, and reached out to touch it.
The people with the lanyard ring have thoughtfully tied the sliver knot. As long as someone puts his neck in and his body is suspended in the air, the sliver knot will instantly shrink and tightly tie his neck. Because of the weight of the body, no matter whether the slinger regrets it or not, they will definitely be unable to untie the sliver knot, and they can only struggle and suffocate.
It was a tree and a hanged man, which made Yu Xing feel familiar.
In the deduction of the tomb, before officially entering the tomb palace, they also saw the scene of hanging in the forest with bird corpses, both of which were hanging, and the same trees and rope circles. Under the tomb palace, the ghost tree growing in the abyss was full of people's heads.
Could this be a proof that there is a ghost tree underground? Yu Xing's face was a little strange. He didn't understand what Ghost Tree is like to trap people so much.
Just as he was complaining about Gui Chenshu's aesthetic, his pupils suddenly shrank and he remembered something.
Actually, there is.
He and Carlos are both in the dungeon match. There have been trees hanging with ropes on the island. Although it is a flash of hallucination, they are inexplicably similar.
Not only the rope circle, but also the island of the Newcomer Tournament also has several graves and tombstones, and even an isolated island on the sea. He still remembers the strange feeling that suddenly arises from the bottom of his heart when he carried the camera to look at the sea.
That sea area is too similar to the sea area of ​​Dead Silent Island. At that time, because it was broadcasting live and the duration was limited, although he knew that there was another plot line hidden in the island of the Newcomer Tournament, he could not continue to explore. Instead, he thought that there might be a high-level deducer to complete the subsequent deduction.
But now when I think about it, did he missed... a ghost tree that he could have come into contact with at the earliest?
This cognition is a bit late, but there is nothing we can do about it. Before that, Yu Xing had no idea about the appearance of Guichen Tree, but now he suddenly realized it and was very excited.
Hanging rope circles, woods, cemeteries, islands in the Cthulhu style world... Ghost trees seem to have a preference for these things.
Oh, there is another coincidence, that is, two deductions that have been confirmed to have ghost trees and one that may have ghost trees, Carlos is not absent.
"Well, it would be great if I could go back to the dungeon of the Necropolis Island. I wonder if there is a way to specify the world. Can I trade with the system when I reach the despair level?" Yu Xing pinched the rope ring in his hand and played with it for a while, then lost interest in the white rope, suppressed his thoughts, and continued to go around the back of the girls' dormitory building.
He walked for a few more minutes before standing behind the girls' dormitory building. What needs to be paid attention to was the mice that were easily hidden. He concentrated on his senses, and then opened his eyes a little unexpectedly and found that there were no mice distributed in the girls' dormitory building.
Or it was just the mouse that was not distributed, because he had sensed many auras from the building that were much stronger and more evil than the mouse.
It's not a ghost, it's an entity, a bit similar to the red armbands he saw in the teaching building.
Late at night when the lights were turned off and the bed was checked, there were so many strange things active in the corridor. No wonder the female dormitory manager did not let the mice enter the girls' dormitory, because there was no need for them to enter. When the mice entered, they turned into food.
I obviously tried to sense the girls' dormitory building during the day, but I didn't get any feedback.
Yu Xing looked at the second floor window closest to him. It was the window in the stairwell. It was quite large enough to allow him to get in. But what was strange was that each window was like a door, with a big lock hanging at the interface.
The lock is still hung from the outside, not from the inside, and does not look like a thief, but gives people a sense of being locked in a dormitory building without letting it out.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Such a lock made him convenient. Yu Xing quickly climbed the protruding place outside the wall, jumped softly, and came to the window. He grabbed the window frame with one hand and took out a brand new iron wire from his pants pocket with the other - he finally found it in the dormitory.
He was already used to the iron wire lock prying, let alone the old lock in the architectural system of St. Jones Middle School. In just a few seconds, the lock opened.
If these windows are locked only from the inside, he will not be able to enter and he will have to go through other people's balcony. This kind of extravagant window locking behavior not only simplifies the difficulty of his infiltration, but also reveals him a piece of information.
Chapter completed!
