CH 7

Si Yaoxing didn’t give him any time to react, and casually said, “Zhou Liu, this can be counted as us finding you.”

Zhou Liu didn’t seem to realise Si Yaoxing knew him, and froze for a moment. He turned to look at Gu Xizhou, and swallowed: “You, why are you looking for me?”

His reply answered their suspicions, this guy really was the ghost they were looking for!

“You should know.”

The thick eyebrows on Zhou Liu’s face twisted into a furrow, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s already so late, be careful not to be caught by the inspector. You must remember that.”

Si Yaoxing took two steps in, and picked up the Year 3 mock paper placed on the table.

The Gu Xizhou standing at the side looked on in interest.

Si Yaoxing glanced at Gu Xizhou, then walked in front of Zhou Liu and quietly asked: “Who raped Lin Yuan?”

Hearing this question, Zhou Liu appeared to have a moment of hesitation, and he shook his head: “Don’t talk nonsense, there’s no such thing!”

“No, there is, and you’re going to tell me who did it.”

Zhou Liu denied it again, but there was a flash of uneasiness across his face, and it was keenly captured by the two individuals. At this moment, a cry for help suddenly rang outside.

Si Yaoxing moved a beat faster than Gu Xizhou, and pulled in the people standing outside, gently closing the door behind them.

The people who were pulled inside howled like pigs–

“Let go, let go of me!”

“Police badge, please protect me!”

Gu Xizhou and Si Yaoxing looked at Ma Yu at the same time, and then glanced at the closed door. There was a knocking noise on the door from the outside, but since no one opened the door, it seemed to give up. 

After Ma Yu struggled for half a day, he felt the hands around him loosen, and he finally opened his eyes a tiny bit, only to see Gu Xizhou’s face. The expression on his face was uglier than a crying face, and his teeth ground together for a moment.

A stream of urine rushed out, Ma Yu: “You really are a ghost…”

Gu Xizhou: “…” I’m not, I didn’t, don’t speak blindly!

Just as Ma Yu really believed he was about to die, he heard a familiar voice speaking with a little hesitation.

“It really won’t come in to kill people.”

Ma Yu subconsciously turned his head, and saw Si Yaoxing’s expressionless face. Suddenly, he felt as if Si Yaoxing looked exceptionally friendly, and he wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead. 

Zhou Liu: “…”

Gu Xizhou: “He doesn’t know he’s dead yet?”

Si Yaoxing nodded his head, “It seems so.”

Gu Xizhou: “He’s not willing to speak about the incident regarding Lin Yuan, could it be that he really…”

“No, it definitely wasn’t him who raped Lin Yuan,” Si Yaoxing’s gaze landed on the door of Room 308, “If it was him, do you think the thing outside would simply knock on the door like it just did?”

“It wouldn’t.”

The Ma Yu that had followed over listened to the conversation between the two people, and realised the thing in front of him wasn’t human. His mouth widened slowly as he stared at the other side of the room, and hid behind Si Yaoxing and Gu Xizhou’s body.

Gu Xizhou smiled and looked at Ma Yu, “Didn’t you say to search for the police in times of trouble? Why are you hiding behind us?”

Ma Yu: “No, I’m scared…”

Gu Xizhou: “Police Uncle, I’m scared too! You stand in front and protect me, okay?”

Ma Yu’s gaze landed on Gu Xizhou’s body, and wanted to roll his eyes at Gu Xizhou, but in the end he resisted. “…” Scram!

After teasing him, Gu Xizhou still didn’t let go of the matter, and asked Ma Yu with a little surprise: “How did you fall asleep? Wasn’t your room going to use your lives to stay up through the night?”

Ma Yu frowned and tried to recall what happened: “I accompanied Li He to the toilet. He gave me a cigarette, and I smoked at the toilet entrance. I don’t know how, but I suddenly entered here… As soon as I woke up, I suddenly saw that fucking thing staring at me, I almost pissed my pants! Fuck!”

“Haha.” Gu Xizhou glanced at him, and blurted out, “There must be something wrong with the smoke.”

Ma Yu obviously had thought of that too, and his expression was very ugly. Just as he thought of something to say, he resisted and swallowed it back down. He was also full of doubts, and he couldn’t figure out why Li He would act like that.

Just then, a voice interrupted their conversation, “You’re still not going back to your own dorms?”

The conversation between the three of them immediately stopped, and their gazes fell on the owner of that voice.

That boy was an ordinary high school student who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. He looked like the kind of type that young girls would like, with a clean and beautiful image. He should be incredibly popular with the girls in his class.

Si Yaoxing said faintly: “When you tell us about the incident regarding Lin Yuan, we’ll leave.”

“I don’t know.”

“Do you really not know, or is the person who raped her you?” Si Yaoxing asked coldly.

“It wasn’t me!”

“Then who?”

“It wasn’t anyone, no one raped her! Stop talking bullshit!”

Si Yaoxing shook his head at Ma Yu and Gu Xizhu. Just then, Gu Xizhou didn’t know how he got his hands on a chair, but he had already went around Zhou Liu’s back.

Ma Yu pointed at the Gu Xizhou standing behind Zhou Liu, and pointed at him, asking hurriedly, “You, what are you doing!”

“Boom!”

Gu Xizhou threw the chair down, and the entire dorm seemed as if it had just survived a rain of blood. 

The boy suddenly froze, and subconsciously touched his head with his hands. 

Gu Xizhou squatted down, grabbing the boy’s hair and pulled him to a mirror. “Look at yourself.”

Zhou Liu dazedly looked at himself in the mirror. The wound on his head was terrifying, and he was bleeding profusely, but he… he didn’t feel a single bit of pain.

“You’re already dead.” Gu Xizhou said to the “person” in the mirror. “Lin Yuan is also dead, but the person who really killed them is not dead. Don’t waste everyone’s time. I don’t have that much patience.”

“I… I’m dead?” Zhou Liu’s brain went blank.

“Fuck!” Big Brother, you even dare to fight ghosts!

Seeing this scene, Ma Yu stared at Zhou Liu with a trembling gaze, worried that the other party would suddenly explode and rip them apart. 

Si Yaoxing was the only one who cared about him, and asked: “Are you alright?”

Ma Yu’s face was white and his knees were weak: “Haha, small, small matter…”

Si Yaoxing: “…”

Ma Yu was crying without tears. He had never seen such a demon-like person before. If the thing in front of them exploded, wouldn’t their three bodies just go cold?!

Ma Yu tentatively stared at the Zhou Liu who had just been beaten up by Gu Xizhou and unobtrusively moved to the door that had just closed. The moment something went wrong, he was going to wrench the door open and start running.

However, the worst result that Ma Yu foresaw did not happen. After Zhou Liu realised he had died, he felt a bitter pain at first, but then seemed to be relieved–

“Just a while ago ba, I also don’t know when I died…” Zhou Liu slowly opened his mouth.

“Lin Yuan was suddenly very uneasy, as if her spirit had left her.”

“I was very worried…”

Zhou Liu sped up his speech, “I asked over and over again a few times, but she refused to say anything, then one day I saw her parents come to pick her up. She argued with her parents and their voices were so loud. She ran away crying, and her parents were so mad that they didn’t chase after her. I was worried about her, so I went after her.”

“When I found her, she looked at me and immediately started crying, just crying all the way…” Having said that, Zhou Liu choked a bit, “Later, she told me that she was raped by Gao Hangyi, that beast. She wanted to call the police, but her parents wouldn’t let her.”

“As soon as Gao Hangyi knew of the severity of the situation, he told his dad. His dad immediately went directly to find Lin Yuan’s dad. Lin Yuan’s Dad was working in one of the factories belonging to Gao Hangyi’s family, and it seemed like Gao Hangyi’s dad offered him a lot of money… He also promised to give him the position of deputy manager, and so Lin Yuan’s family didn’t… didn’t let her call the police. Later, when her family wasn’t paying attention, she called the police. When the police came, her family kept saying she was speaking nonsense, and the police couldn’t do anything, so they left.”

“They later tried to persuade her, saying that they were doing this for her own good, saying that if a girl had been raped, it wasn’t good for her reputation…”

“It was just full of shit, they were only doing it for their own sake! Lin Yuan wasn’t willing, always arguing with her parents. Once I knew about it, I thought of an idea. If public opinion forced the police to come and investigate this matter, then her parents couldn’t do anything about it, so we posted it on the school’s forum together.”

After this, Zhou Liu lowered his voice. “Then the police came to find me and interrogate me. After I came back, I… I don’t remember.”

Although Zhou Liu didn’t know, Gu Xizhou and the two other people were well aware of it. After this, Zhou Liu had jumped off the building to commit suicide, but according to this story, Zhou Liu couldn’t have committed suicide. It was more likely that he had fought with Gao Hangyi and was pushed off the building by the other party. Later, the incident on the school’s forum was left unsettled, but the school spread it and it became viral, eventually turning into the version they had heard.

After Zhou Liu finished speaking, he glanced at Gu Xizhou a little fearfully and said, “I’ve told you everything I know, are you still not going to leave?”

Ma Yu was certain he had been thinking too wildly and hallucinated… how could “it” possibly be afraid of Gu Ran?

At this moment, Gu Xizhou said: “No, if I go out I’ll have to run around. Tonight, I’ll just sleepover. Is there anyone sleeping on that bed?”

Si Yaoxing: “Good idea!”

Ma Yu: “Sleep… sleep here?!! With ‘it’…” Even though it was a different kind, in the end that thing was an “it” and not a “he” ah!

Realising that he was saying something bad, Ma Yu subconsciously looked at Zhou Liu and smiled awkwardly. 

Zhou Liu: “…”

Lying on a bed, not having to wander around in a dream, it was actually a pretty good life–

But Ma Yu was still crying without tears. To sleep in the same room as a ghost, even if it was in a dream, it was too stimulating! His stimulating heart disease was about to recur! Just as he thought of this, he suddenly heard two quiet breathing sounds ringing out in the middle of the night.

These two people actually fucking fell asleep! Leaving him and “it” to stare at each other.

Ma Yu wanted to distract himself as much as possible, but when he saw the tragic appearance of the boy after Gu Xizhou’s blast, he couldn’t distract himself, and his eyes involuntarily fell on Zhou Liu’s body. 

As if sensing Ma Yu’s gaze, the boy with blood all over his face and a head that had been split wide open turned around, looking at him politely without losing the awkward smile on his face.

Ma Yu: “…”

He really wanted to piss his pants now.
