"Indeed, it sounds unimaginable, but it disappeared just like that. I just don't know what happened."

"Could someone have killed the girl?"

Liu Meng asked.

I shook my head and frowned deeply. I couldn't figure it out.

"I don't think so. Otherwise, why didn't anyone hear her voice?"

Liu Meng was stunned and did not speak anymore.

Lin Jia sat beside me without saying a word.

"However, this has nothing to do with us. It's best not to get involved."

After all, there was no benefit in being involved. It might bring him a fatal disaster.

"Yes."

Both of them answered at the same time.

However, just as we were about to get up from the meal, a person walked over. Seeing that we were about to leave, he quickly grabbed my arm.

"Sister, don't go yet. Can you do me a favor?"

Hearing the voice, I looked at the person. Isn't this the student who said that her roommate had disappeared?

"Who are you? Why should I help you?"

I directly shook off the girl's hand and said unhappily.

I don't want to put my life on the line because I don't feel good.

"I, I'm a freshman student called Ni Yuanyuan, my dorm friend Wang Xiaoyan has disappeared. I heard that you were also in the library at the time, so I wanted to ask …"

Without waiting for her to finish speaking, I brought Liu Meng and Lin Jia forward, leaving a sentence behind, "We don't know anything."

Originally, we thought that this Ni Yuanyuan might not chase us anymore, but we never expected her to be in front of us.

"What are you trying to do?"

The Ni Yuanyuan in front of me pursed her lips, her pitiful appearance caused the fire in my heart to slowly disappear.

"Please, help me."

When she said those words, I was stunned. What did she mean by 'help her'?

At this time, Lin Jia spoke out, "What can we help you with?"

"I know you guys were the only ones who heard Xiao Yan's scream, and only you guys can help me. I hope you guys can help me find her, if only I could find the real culprit."

Hehe, I sneered in my heart.

"Why should we help you?"

I looked at her in disdain. Why wouldn't I go if she wants us to throw our lives away?

Although she might be of no use, but if something happens to us, will she be able to control us?

"En..." "About this, whatever you want, as long as it's something that I can give you, it's fine."

She seems to be quite sincere and wants us to help her, but do I want her to give it to me?

"I don't want anything. As long as you live, will you give me anything?"

Hearing my words, Ni Yuanyuan was indeed shocked, and even Lin Jia and Liu Meng were stunned.

"Ling, you must be joking."

Liu Meng lowered her voice and whispered into my ear.

"Nope."

"How is it?"

I stared at her. Her face was pale, drained of color.

"Aren't you joking with me again?"

Ni Chong lightly raised her brows, she never expected that I would say such a thing.

"No."

Ni Chong was truly frightened, and was startled for a moment. She hesitated for a few seconds before reacting.

"I definitely can't give you my life. Everything else is fine."

I don't understand why she wants us to help. If her feelings were deep, even if she would hesitate, she would not say such words.

"Then what's your relationship with her? Why did she ask us to help you?"

I raised my eyebrows, puzzled.

"We're good friends and we're on good terms. Actually, I was very worried and even called the police when she went missing, but I suddenly received a letter saying that only you could help me find Xiao Yan and the culprit, so I came to find you in a hurry."

I nodded and took a deep breath. "Why can't you sacrifice yourself for her?"

It was really unjustifiable.

"Actually, it's not that I'm unwilling. Rather, it's that I still have my family, so …"

I pursed my lips and said, "Let me think about it."

"Really?" Ni Yuanyuan was very excited and her expression was also very happy, "Although it's just consideration, I'm still very grateful to you. Just come and find me if you need anything in the future."

"Yes."

After returning to the dorm, Lin Jia and I discussed this matter.

"Ling, do you really plan on doing her this favor?"

Liu Meng held Lin Jia's arm and walked over. They were all sitting on chairs and looking at me, who was typing out the numbers in my notebook.

I took a deep breath and adjusted my state of mind. I slowly said, "No, I definitely wouldn't help her like this. I don't want us to die in vain."

Lin Jia was a little confused, and asked: "What do you mean?"

I think that this must not be a simple matter. The murderer may not be a human, but it is very possible that he is a non-human. Then, our department could be in danger of losing our lives, especially that Ni Chong Yuan who said that there was a letter. This could be someone's plan, waiting for us to jump into it.

Listening to me say that, Lin Jia felt the same way, feeling that something was off.

It was because he had been too calm recently that he became even more suspicious.

"Then let's not help her anymore, are we still going to the library to read tonight?"

I nodded my head. I can't just stop going to the library to read books because of this matter.

Thus, after eating dinner, we rested for a while before heading to the library to read.

Unknowingly, three hours had passed and we were still immersed in the sea of books.

About half past ten, when it was time for Liu Meng to go to the toilet, and I had to go alone because I was afraid, I could only accompany Liu Meng.

Originally, Lin Jia wanted to follow along as well, but because the toilet wasn't too far away, he didn't let her follow.

The two of us went to the toilet. Suddenly, we felt a cool breeze blowing, making us feel somewhat cold. We hugged ourselves.

After Liu Meng entered the toilet, I suddenly felt that this place was different from usual, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

I waited for Liu Meng to come out for a while, but she still didn't come out.

"Liu Meng, hurry up!"

I called out, but there was no response.

This time, I panicked. Could it be that I met a ghost again?

"Liu Meng, Liu Meng, I heard a promise."

"Drip, drip …"

There was a dripping sound from the tap behind me, but I didn't dare turn my head to look, because there was a large rectangular mirror there.

The lights began to flicker and flicker, making my breathing quicken.

Without seeing Liu Meng, I had no way to leave, so I slowly approached the washroom …
