Perhaps it was the girl's troubled and conflicted expression that pleased the class monitor, for the girl smiled brightly and gladly accepted the gift, saying, "Thank you!"

That thank you was completely insincere.

Liao Yuewei clicked her tongue, unable to bear seeing Cheng Shuang being bullied any longer. She turned to Wu Qianyu and gave a fake smile, "I thought you wouldn't be disgusting!"

Wu Qianyu ignored her without looking away, and instead gestured with her chin toward the table, playfully reminding Cheng Shuang, "Don't leave any food!"

At this point, only some reddish soup and a few leaves remained on their plates.

Liao Yuewei rolled her eyes, picked up the plate, and gulped down the soup and water in one go, immediately drawing countless admiring glances.

Anyone who can still eat now is a superhuman!

Wu Qianyu shifted her gaze expressionlessly and looked at the nuns again.

The short-haired girl surrounded by nuns had a swollen belly, like a woman several months pregnant. Despite her pained expression, she didn't stop and gulped down a large bowl of soup.

Her belly had gotten even bigger.

Now only empty plates remained piled up on the table...

The nuns lined up in two rows and stood solemnly at the doorway again. Their dark nunneries blended almost seamlessly with the black door panel, and unless one looked closely, it would be difficult to notice that there were four women standing there.

"That's really amazing!"

Liao Yuwei couldn't help but offer a word of praise, though it was unclear whether she was admiring the short-haired woman's appetite or the nuns' chameleon-like invisibility.

The short-haired girl practically crawled away, making sure to pack up her used tableware before leaving to avoid further punishment for not washing herself properly.

Fortunately, her companion did not completely abandon her. After she left the restaurant, they immediately helped her up with great effort and put medicine into her mouth. Unfortunately, neither the white nor the green pills worked. Her belly was already as big as a woman who was ten months pregnant and about to give birth.

The two staggered toward the back of the restaurant, clearly not daring to relax even for a moment longer.

"Let's go!" Cheng Shuang pursed her lips. She and Liao Yuewei had taken a shortcut, but they would have to get through this sooner or later. It was better to get through it sooner rather than later. The longer they delayed, the greater the changes they would face.

The two girls who spoke up in the corner of the dining area were definitely supporters, even if they pretended to be indifferent, they still looked like they were struggling to swallow their food.

The two who had been hesitant at first now ate every last bit of food, even picking up and eating the grains of rice that had fallen onto the table.

The nuns seemed to only sense the presence of the guardians. As the two women approached the door, four nuns appeared to check them out, and soon allowed them to leave without incident.

This shows that lessons learned from the past are always wise sayings!

The lunch break ends promptly at 12:30.

Cheng Shuang had already missed the chance to learn from this. With a tense expression, she approached the door when she smelled a strong stench of blood. Her stomach churned, and she abruptly stopped.

"What..." Before Liao Yuewei could finish speaking, she keenly looked at the two doors at the entrance.

Four pairs of blank, empty eyes, devoid of pupils, moved toward them. The nuns were indeed fused with the heavy door panel, their heads slowly peeling off, followed by their necks, chests... and finally their feet.

They tiptoed closer, reaching out to brush against Cheng Shuang and Liao Yuewei's abdomens.

Meeting those eyes, both of them held their breath, feeling as if they were being locked onto by a cold, venomous snake, their bodies turning cold and their hands and feet icy.

After a moment, the nuns, whose faces were as still as water, showed a hint of doubt. They hesitated and scanned the notebook again before slowly taking out their notebooks and flipping through them.

The two women held hands tightly, and it would be a lie to say they weren't nervous, just like cheating under the teacher's nose, always harboring a glimmer of hope. However, the nuns looked up at Liao Yuewei, gestured with their fingertips for her to leave, and then their gazes uniformly shifted to the little girl.

Instantly, Cheng Shuang felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, experiencing a terrifying sense of being targeted by death. Her instincts screamed for her to escape, but her legs remained rooted to the spot, uncontrollably.

The eerie alarm sounded, though it wasn't long-lasting, it wasn't to be ignored.

The little girl knew she couldn't resist, otherwise her mournful sighs would turn into deadly screams.

In the eyes of the freak, the four nuns were headless, handless, and footless, their chests split open from top to bottom, revealing bloody organs. Their dark nun's clothes were actually entirely the color of blood.

The strong smell of blood was coming from them. Patches of blood stretched from the door panel to the ground. A human figure dragged a trail on the blood-soaked ground, exactly like the crawling tracks of the short-haired girl.

Cheng Shuang's pupils contracted. There were a few drops of the nuns' blood splattered on her feet, while Liao Yuewei's shoes were almost clean—the terrifying stain on her shoes was the dripping blood from the nuns' severed hands.

So when the nun reached out to explore her abdomen, she wasn't checking if the maintainer had eaten enough.

She ate too little; the blood stained her shoes but not completely, which made the nun doubt for a moment, and she ultimately judged that she had wasted food.

Liao Yuewei first breathed a sigh of relief, but when she noticed that four pairs of terrifying eyes had simultaneously turned to Cheng Shuang, she took another breath and, with a courage she didn't know where she got from, blurted out, "We ate one serving for the two of us, but she ate less and I ate more."

Seeing that the nuns ignored her, Liao Yuewei raised her voice and said excitedly, "Really, really! She's young and doesn't eat much, so we only shared one portion between the two of them to avoid wasting food."

"Everyone can testify that they heard it!"

The nuns not only ignored them, but the female students present, including the class monitor, also remained indifferent. Only the cafeteria lady was starting to get restless.

Cheng Shuang closed her eyes and thought calmly for a moment.

To fight head-on would be like throwing an egg against a rock.

Knowing her own limitations, the little girl decided to take a gamble. She used her consciousness to retrieve Alice's red cloak and put it directly inside the grotesque monster's cloak. She opened her eyes and looked pitifully at the class monitor who had been watching the "show."

The class monitor tilted her head slightly and smiled knowingly. She clearly liked the trusting and pleading expression on the little girl's face, especially the girl's pleading look. She inexplicably felt an urge to stroke her fur and rub her face.

For a heartless ghost, such a touch of the soul is extremely rare, giving her the illusion that she is still a living, breathing human being.

Standing up and walking over with her hands behind her back, the class monitor gently patted Cheng Shuang's shoulder and said to the nun, "Oh dear, I can testify! Luo Qi has such a small appetite; she always shares a meal with someone else."

The four nuns slowly looked at the class monitor, as if to confirm something.

The class monitor nodded firmly, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Yes, yes, I promise I'll make sure she eats properly tonight, teachers, please don't worry!"

Originally, Cheng Shuang's lips twitched as she regained her freedom after being slapped by her. She let the class monitor's slightly cool arm rest on her shoulder. When the four nuns' empty eyes moved over, she gritted her teeth and nodded in acquiescence, deciding to get through this hurdle first.
