"You're overthinking." Chen Ge's peripheral vision glanced at the black bag behind the door, but he didn't take it to heart at all.
Regardless of whether it contains domestic garbage or corpses, what does it have to do with him now?
Chen Ge has always been sober. The first thing he has to do is to figure out his own identity and figure out what kind of person Lin Sisi is.
From his perspective, his body and appearance had not changed at all, and he didn't know why Wang Xiaoming and the people around him called him Lin Sisi.
"Maybe Lin Sisi is not a person's name at all, but a code name and an identity."
"If you still want to go to the canteen later, you can ask me to come with you. I will go back first." Chen Ge's expression did not change much, as if he had not seen the bag.
"Okay." Wang Xiaoming retracted his body into the dormitory. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he shouted to Chen Ge again: "Xiao Lin, you have been sleeping in class today. I don't know if you heard what Teacher Bai specifically said.
Those few things.”
"What's up?"
"Recently, don't leave the dormitory casually at night. Just stay in your own room. Also, the lights-out time has been advanced from 11 o'clock to 10:30. After the lights are turned off, there will be people patrolling the corridor. I hope everyone can pay attention."
"That's all?" Chen Ge thought Wang Xiaoming wanted to say something important. It had been a while since he entered the door, but everyone and everything he encountered seemed normal. To be precise, they were all normal on the surface.
The school is just like an ordinary night school, there is nothing particularly noteworthy.
Wang Xiaoming bit his lip, as if he wanted to say something else, but perhaps because he was not sure, he did not speak again.
The door was closed, and Chen Ge stood alone in the corridor of the dormitory building. The surroundings were very quiet, without any sound.
"The lights haven't been turned off yet. How can it be so quiet in the corridor? Are there no people in the dormitories on both sides?"
Chen Ge took out the key from his backpack and looked at the bedroom door opposite Wang Xiaoming. There was a number written on the door - 413.
"Is this Lin Sisi's room?" Staring at the number, Chen Ge suddenly felt familiar: "4 represents the fourth floor, what does 13 represent? The 13th room?"
Chen Ge once saw the number 13 in a diary underground at Nightmare Academy. He remembered clearly that there was a sentence written at the end of the last page of that diary - I, die, one, three, psychic ghost school,
escape.
"The number 13 in the diary refers to this dormitory? It shouldn't be that simple."
In the dead silent corridor, there was only the sound of the key being inserted into the keyhole and turned. It took Chen Ge several attempts to find the correct key.
After opening the door and seeing the scene inside the dormitory, Chen Ge frowned tightly.
The dormitory is not big, with a total of six beds, all of which are upper bunks. Under the beds are wardrobes, desks, and various miscellaneous items.
You wouldn't think there was anything wrong just by looking at these. What caught Chen Ge's attention was the walls of the dormitory.
There are many figures on the walls and ceiling of this dormitory. They are the same height and shape as normal people. I don't know whether they are pasted on them or painted on them.
"One, two..." Chen Ge roughly counted, there were five human-shaped shadows in the dormitory.
That thing is so conspicuous that it's hard not to notice it.
For his own safety, Chen Ge first climbed onto the bed along the bed ladder and observed the figures up close.
Touching the shadow closest to him with his finger, Chen Ge gently touched the wall with his nails: "It was painted with paint. Who would paint these things in the dormitory if they have nothing to do?"
These shadows, which are the same size as normal people, look scary when the lights are turned on. Wouldn't it be even scarier when the lights are turned off and you look up and find that the room is full of human figures?
Scanning all the figures, Chen Ge jumped out of bed. After losing the help of his employees, he became more cautious than ever.
"There are six beds in total, but there is only one thermos bottle in the dormitory and only one pair of slippers on the floor. Xiao Lin should be the only one who actually lives in this dormitory."
Chen Ge carefully rummaged through the wardrobes and desks corresponding to the other beds. Although there were various miscellaneous items piled inside, they were not daily necessities. They were all very strange things.
For example, drawing boards, paint buckets, plaster broken hands, damaged wires, etc.
This dormitory seems to be a utility room. Xiao Lin is the only one living in it, and the other beds are not occupied.
"Students studying night school rarely live on campus. Xiaolin's financial situation is not good, and he is even less likely to pay more to live on campus. The only possibility is that living here is cheaper than renting a house outside."
Normally, the price of a school apartment is much more expensive than a family hotel near the school. The price here is unusually low, which only means there is something wrong with the room.
Chen Ge didn't know what happened in the dormitory where Xiao Lin lived. He always had an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.
Climb into bed No. 4 far away from the door. This bed is covered with brand new sheets and quilts. Although there are quilts thrown on several other beds, most of them are covered with dust and are too dirty to be used.
"If no one lives there, why do we need to keep quilts? Will anyone be willing to use such a dirty quilt?"
Chen Ge sat on bed No. 4 and looked at the dormitory from a different angle. It felt completely different and not so crowded.
"Yes, this is Xiao Lin's bed." Next to the pillow were words of encouragement and a schedule of work and rest. If it weren't for being in this weird school, Chen Ge would definitely think that Xiao Lin was a good student who worked hard to improve himself.
"The sheets have been washed, exuding the scent of laundry detergent, and the quilts are neatly folded. When I was in school, it was rare to see someone in the dormitory folding the quilts so well. Xiao Lin should be a person who loves cleanliness and is extremely self-disciplined.
"Chen Ge speculated on Xiao Lin's character in his mind.
Apart from the quilt and pillows, there were only books and pens on bed No. 4.
At first glance, Chen Ge thought Xiao Lin loved learning very much, but after flipping through it a few times, he discovered the problem.
Most of the books related to professional courses are clean, without any markings on them, just like newly bought books. On the contrary, the edges of several of Xiaolin's own notebooks are seriously worn, and it can be seen that they are frequently read.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chen Ge took out the three notebooks hidden in the middle of the textbook. They were filled with various stickers, some cut from newspapers, and some from the dormitory.
There are announcements posted downstairs, and there are also small pieces of paper with different handwritings.
"This is..." After a casual glance, Chen Ge was immediately attracted.
"The man entered the dormitory while the students were on vacation. Unexpectedly, someone had not left school yet. He hid in the closet and was discovered when he left the closet late at night."
"The body was found in the closet early the next morning. The murderer has not yet been arrested. Teachers and students at all levels are asked to take precautions."
What was cut out from the newspaper was a piece of news. There was no detailed address or specific name of the person. It just reported a murder case that the person had heard of.
"It seems that the names of people have been cut out intentionally. Where did Xiaolin find the newspaper? The paper is yellowed and it feels like it has been aged for some time."
There is more than one case recorded in the notebook, and the places where the crime occurred include dormitories, libraries, laboratory buildings, and elevators.
"Did these cases really happen in reality?" Chen Ge flipped through his notes, becoming increasingly frightened as he read them: "This note is very important."
While looking through his notes, Chen Ge also became more curious about Xiao Lin. Who is this person? Why did he collect these weird murder cases?
Chen Ge put all Xiao Lin's notes on the bed. He always carried one in his backpack and three on the bed. Now Chen Ge had a total of four notes.
"The notebook in the backpack should be used as a disguise. There is not much important information. The three notebooks found on the bedside are probably Xiaolin's biggest secrets." Chen Ge read it carefully and memorized what he saw.
.
Chen Ge was fully focused and not distracted at all, but at this moment, the door was suddenly knocked several times.
The silence was broken, and Chen Ge held his breath habitually.
After a few knocks on the door, the knocking stopped.
"Is Wang Xiaoming outside? He asked me to go to the cafeteria to eat with him?" Chen Ge didn't want to make too many comments about Wang Xiaoming, nor did he want to have anything to do with him.
After about a minute, that annoying knock on the door suddenly sounded again.
But this time the other person knocked on the door a little harder. Chen Ge didn't say anything, nor did he open the door. After the knocking continued for a few seconds, a key was inserted into the keyhole, and the spring bounced.
sound!
Crunch…
The door was pushed open, and a pale Teacher Bai appeared at the door holding keys and a flashlight.
"Why don't you open the door?" Teacher Bai glared at Chen Ge. His forehead was sweating, his Adam's apple was trembling slightly, and he seemed a little scared.
"I just fell asleep." Chen Ge naturally grabbed the quilt on the bed and covered himself, covering the three notebooks.
Teacher Bai did not enter the house, but just stood at the door and took a look: "Don't run around at night, just stay in the dormitory, do you hear me?"
"Okay." Chen Ge nodded in agreement.
Teacher Bai closed the door and left directly.
"Weird guy, he opened the door in a hurry just now. It felt like he wanted to see if I was still alive."
Chen Ge was covered with quilt and was about to continue reading his notes when the lights in the dormitory suddenly went out.
"Lights out? It's half past ten now?" Lying in the darkness, Chen Ge suddenly realized a problem: "Since I entered the world behind the door, I haven't seen anything that can show time. There is no clock.
There’s no time on the phone either.”
"Time should be a hidden clue that may bring me some special help." From the moment he turned off the lights, Chen Ge began to distract himself, silently counting his heartbeats while using his Yin Pupil to continue reading his notes.
He doesn't need to know exactly what time it is now, he just wants to have a rough range to facilitate his next actions.
"Go through the contents of the notes briefly, and then look for other clues. If you really can't find it, immediately change to another place." Teacher Bai has the dormitory door key, and he can enter and exit the dormitory at will, which makes Chen Ge very insecure.
feel.
The curtains in the bedroom were very thick, and only a glimmer of light penetrated into the room through the gap.
There are five figures printed on the wall, and the atmosphere is getting more and more depressing.
Bang, bang, bang...
In the darkness, Chen Ge suddenly heard someone knocking on the bedroom door. The other person's movements were very gentle.
"Why is someone coming here again?" The new knock on the door was completely different from the knock on the door by Teacher Bai just now. It should be another person knocking on the door.
"Is it Wang Xiaoming? No, he looks very timid and is very afraid of staying in the corridor of the dormitory building. It shouldn't be him." Chen Ge was lying on the bed covered with a quilt. He thought of what Teacher Bai and Wang Xiaoming said, don't do it at night.
Leave the dormitory at will.
When Chen Ge was still hesitating whether to go over and take a look, the knocking on the door had stopped, and the other party only knocked three or four times.
"There was only a knock on the door, but no footsteps. The person outside the door probably hasn't left yet." Chen Ge is also very experienced in investigation and counter-investigation.
He made no sound and didn't even move his body, trying to create the illusion that there was no one in the dormitory.
Ten minutes later, there was still deathly silence in the room and in the corridor.
"That person has left?" Chen Ge breathed a sigh of relief. He reached into Xiaolin's backpack and touched the pair of scissors with polished edges: "Whether it's useful or not, holding this thing can at least give you some peace of mind."
Chen Ge is not the type to sit still and wait for death. No matter how desperate he is, he will never give up easily.
He grabbed the scissors, but before he could take them out of the bag, there was another knock on the door.
Not very hard, just like mechanical repetition.
"Is the monster outside the door targeting me?"
Chen Ge gripped the scissors tightly and stared at the door. This time, the knocking on the door did not stop, and became more urgent.
"The guy outside seems to be being chased by something. Does he want to come in and take refuge?" The Ni Bodhisattva couldn't save himself when crossing the river. How dare Chen Ge run over and open the door for him at this time.
The frequency of the other party's knocking on the door is getting faster and faster, but the strength is gradually getting smaller, giving people the feeling that life is constantly passing by and they are dying.
"A prank? Or is he deliberately trying to trick me out?" Chen Ge listened to the knock on the door, which gradually became more urgent, but the sound became smaller and smaller. He slowly narrowed his eyes: "The knock on the door appeared out of thin air, in the corridor.
There's no sound on the phone, something's not right, I seem to have overlooked a possibility."
Chen Ge reached out and flipped through the notes beside him. One of the murder cases recorded in it was that the murderer hid in the dormitory closet and was seen by a student when he left in the middle of the night. Finally, the student's body was found in the closet.
"Whether it was the murderer or the student, they were all in the dormitory that night. If this story happened in this room, then what I hear now is not a knock on the door from outside at all, but a cry for help from inside the house.
Noise! The ghost might be in the room!"
A cold air rushed from his spine into his brain, and the position of the figure on the wall seemed to change slightly. To make matters worse, Chen Ge suddenly felt something moving under the quilt!
