What entered his eyes was Huang Liang's face full of worry, although it couldn't be considered handsome, but that worry at least warmed Xiao Mo's heart.

  "I was calling you for half a day and you didn't wake up, it really scared me to death."

  Xiao Mo sat up and rubbed his temples, asking with a puzzled expression:

  "What? Have you been calling me for a long time?"

  "Yes, I called you more than 30 times and saw that your expression was extremely painful, thinking that you had contracted some kind of illness."

  Xiao Mu nodded slightly and didn't respond again. He turned his head to glance around the classroom, which was empty and had nothing in it.

  "Is it a nightmare?"

  Recalling the many voices in his dream, Xiao Mu felt a chill in his heart. If that voice was really Zhang You Shan's, then...

  "Is our tour guide's surname Sun?"

  "Really? Why ask this suddenly?"

  "Nothing, just suddenly thought of asking, she's a pretty good person, right?"

  "Yes, everyone we've been with has been great... what a pity..."

  As he said this, a hint of desolation flashed across Huang Liang's face, and he didn't continue speaking.

  Xiao Mo had some suspicions in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud to Huang Liang. Instead, he changed the subject and asked:

  "Aren't you supposed to be out eating? Why are you back?"

  "Alas, I'm going to die soon, who still has the heart to eat?" Huang Liang sighed and sat down beside Xiao Mo, his not-so-good-looking face almost scrunched up together.

  Seeing Huang Liang's dejected appearance, Xiao Mo comforted him with a few words:

  "Maybe things aren't as bad as you think, haven't you thought of several ways to deal with it? Maybe one of them is correct."

  "Hehe, hopefully."

  "Hey, how much do you know about Yuan Shan? Are you familiar with his family?"

  "Not very clear." Huang Liang shook his head and continued:

  "I've never heard him mention his family, I just know he's a local, but as for where his home is, I'm not sure, and I've never been there."

  "You haven't been to his house either?" Xiao Mo's expression turned serious, staring fixedly at Huang Liang's eyes.

  Huang Liang didn't know why, but his eyes hadn't met with Xiao Mo's, and yet he heard him respond saying:

  "I've never been."

  "Huh?" Huang Liang replied, looking at Xiao Mo with a puzzled expression and asked:

  "What's wrong with you today, asking about the tour guide and then asking about Youshan again."

  "Just curious. Because I've never been there either."

  Xiao Mo finished speaking and raised his head high, looking at the pale ceiling above, lost in thought.

  Before I knew it, time had come to late evening.

  Outside the school gate, Xiao Mo and the six Cold Wind people hid in the shadows, quietly waiting for the narrow electronic door to slowly close. Because the closing of the electronic door also represented the arrival of the lockdown time, at which point no one could step into the school again.

  The entire school only has this one entrance and exit, surrounded by nearly three-meter-high walls. It would be quite difficult to jump in. From the death list, today's deceased is Xu Lili, a female student who was less than 1.6 meters tall.

  "Cough... cough..."

  The electronic gate slowly closed, and the surroundings of the school suddenly became quiet, the small road leading to the school also seemed a bit deserted, everything seemed to have stopped at this moment.

  Xiao Mo and a few others stood in groups of three or one, each guarding their side, waiting for tonight's protagonist Xu Lili to take the stage. Meanwhile, Xiao Mo's mind was also surging with doubts.

  "Why not rush to Xuli Li's home, where you can directly seal off the possibility of Xuli Li arriving. Moreover, so many people in the class have already died, even a fool should believe that hiding is useless, but why are those who left school still so determined?"

  And what about the surveillance video next to the door? Gang Feng and others have never mentioned it before. By right, they shouldn't have forgotten this point, should they? Are these people really stupid or are they playing some trick on me again?"

  For some reason, Xiao Mo felt that the few people led by Leng Feng were very suspicious. It wasn't that they were the murderers, but rather it seemed like they had hidden something, and what was being hidden might be the key to this whole incident.

  Xiao Mo looked at Chen Qing, who was not far away from him, with an unchanged expression. Her face was particularly captivating in the darkness, which made Xiao Mo shiver and quickly shift his gaze elsewhere.

  Time passed minute by minute and second by second. Xiao Mo's Adam's apple moved up and down, and he covered his mouth to hold back the urge to cough.

  At last, the time had come to midnight zero hour.

  Chang Lengfeng, Chen Qing and several others stared intently at the dimly lit small path, Xiao Mo's heart was also racing extremely fast, and this frequency was increasing exponentially.

  He remembered the call Zhang Youshan made to him before he died, and the time displayed on it was midnight zero. If the ghost killer has this rule, then Xu Lili should have appeared no matter what.

  But the small path in front of me was still empty and deserted, no human figure appeared, nor even a ghostly shadow.

  "What's going on? Is Xu Lili dreaming at home?"

  Huang Liang told a very cold joke at this moment, but Chen Qing not only didn't laugh, her expression became even more gloomy. Xiao Mo's bright eyes also flashed with confusion, if under the influence of supernatural powers, Xu Lili should have appeared, but why?

  Really?!

  Xiao Mo suddenly rushed out of the shadows, and then he came to the electronic door, propping himself up against the edge with great effort.

  In the deathly silent campus, countless dark shadows filled the air. Under the dim moonlight, a short figure slowly moved forward. In the desolate view, the straight flagpole was infinitely magnified, as if it was emitting an extremely eerie aura.

  "Come quickly, Xu Lili has already gone in!"

  Upon hearing Xiao Mo's exclamation, Chang Lengfeng and the others hastily ran over, also propping themselves up to look inside. They indeed saw Xu Lilian's figure. At this point, everyone was anxious; their purpose for staying here was to prevent Xu Lilian from entering the campus, but now she had already gone in!

  Xu Lili walked very slowly, and her shadow was stretched extremely long under the moonlight. Looking at the direction she was heading, it didn't seem to be where that flagpole was located. It seemed more like the teaching building.

  "Xu Lili! Xu Lili......!"

  Chang Lengfeng was shouting loudly at Xiu Lilili, but Xiu Lilili seemed completely unaware of it and continued to walk slowly towards the teaching building. The old man who was supposed to be on guard didn't know where he had run off to, despite all the commotion outside, he hadn't even come rushing out.

  Xiao Mo kicked the electronic door several times, hoping to summon the old man out, but the result was clearly disappointing.

  As Xu Lili's figure became increasingly blurred, everyone grew more anxious.

  "What's going on! If the electronic door doesn't open, we can't get in at all."

  "Call the police."

  Xiao Mu said faintly, then he took out his mobile phone and dialed the police number, but there was no sound coming from the phone, apparently some kind of power was preventing him from doing so.

  "How was it? Did you get through on the phone?" Qin You Ru asked Xiao Mo with a fearful tone, hiding behind Zhang Da.

  "It can't be done, it won't work."

  Xiao Mo helplessly shook his head and saw Xu Lili gradually moving further away from them.

  "Grass, never mind, jump in and talk later!"

  Huang Liang cursed softly, and then he climbed onto the electronic gate. With a few quick movements, he flipped inside. Seeing Huang Liang enter so easily, Chang Lengfeng also removed his glasses and followed closely behind, flipping in as well.

  Xiao Mo originally wanted to retreat, but as soon as he thought of the content of that text message, his heart skipped a beat and he flipped over with his frail body. As for Zhang Da, Qin You Ru, and Chen Qing, they didn't move, clearly not intending to go in.

  "What's wrong with you, hurry up and catch up with her!"

  Upon hearing Xiao Mo's reminder, Huang Liang and Chang Lengfeng quickly ran towards Xiu Lilian. Xiao Mo had been weak since childhood, so he wasn't good at running, therefore he didn't follow those few people, but instead turned around and walked towards the flagpole.

  The silver flagpole shone brightly in the moonlight, and as he approached it, Xiao Mu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and goosebumps rose on his skin. He looked up at the top of the flagpole, which was still sharp as usual, fortunately without any bloody corpses hanging from it.

  Xiao Mo couldn't help but cough again after that exertion, and his body also transmitted a wave of weakness, which instantly made him lose strength, and he had no choice but to sit down on the four-square platform under the flagpole.

  After sitting down, he felt much better, and his eyes pierced through the layers of darkness, falling on Chang Lengfeng and several others.

  Xu Lili's figure had completely disappeared from view. Huang Liang and Chang Lengfeng stood stupidly outside the teaching building, clearly having given up on chasing after her.

  Xiao Mo saw that the two of them didn't chase after him, so he puffed out his chest and shouted loudly at the two of them:

  "Why give up now!"

  "Xu Lili seems to have entered the teaching building!" Huang Liang replied loudly.

  "Then you guys go in too! She's walking so slowly, as long as we go in, we'll definitely catch up with him!"

  "We also wanted to go in, but the teaching building's gate has this lock on it, and the door is locked! I don't know how Xu Lili managed to get in!"

  Xiao Mo let out a weak sigh, still wanting to say something more, but ultimately chose to shut his mouth. Just as he was about to stand up, several drops of icy liquid suddenly fell onto his head, and he hastily looked up, only to have more liquid fall onto his face.

  Above, on that cold flagpole, Xu Lili was like a mud figurine stuck to the wooden stick, tightly strung up. Fresh blood dripped slowly from her body, not only staining the flagpole red but also dyeing this darkness red.

  "Ah——!"

  This night was destined to be Xiao Mo's sleepless night.
