"Haven't you noticed? Zhang Xiaoming doesn't seem very willing to talk about the person he left before. He keeps talking about other things. Do you think he's trying to change the subject, or does he really enjoy chatting?"
"I guess he really enjoys chatting. Look at how he was chattering non-stop when Lie and Ji Sijian first arrived."
"I always feel that he did it on purpose. Maybe there was a story behind leaving that person, and he knew it, but he didn't want others to know."
"That makes some sense. After all, to survive in this Rule Ghost Story dungeon for three or four months, one must not be an ordinary person. If one didn't have a brain, one would have died long ago. How could one possibly continue to live here?"
While everyone at the base was discussing this, Ji Sijian asked speechlessly, "Do you usually have a welcoming ceremony here?"
Zhang Xiaoming: “???”
Welcome ceremony?
What is the Orientation Ceremony?
Why was there no welcoming ceremony when he came?
How come he had never heard that the school had a welcome ceremony?
Ji Sijian saw Zhang Xiaoming's puzzled expression and realized that the welcome ceremony might be a bit vague. He then explained, "We didn't open that window. When we first arrived at the dormitory, we saw a man in white clothes and long hair standing on the windowsill. He was the one who opened the window. We thought it was a welcome ceremony and ignored it. Who knew he just waved at us, smiled, and jumped down."
"We don't know whether he's dead or alive."
Zhang Xiaoming: “???”
How could he describe jumping off a building in such a refreshing and refined way?
Everyone at the base: “!!!”
"I suddenly realized that Ji Sijian is also a bit funny."
"I've noticed too. They can actually call jumping off a building a welcoming ceremony. Whose welcoming ceremony is jumping off a building?"
"Actually, I really want to know if the person who jumped from the building is still alive."
"He must be dead. There has been no sound downstairs for such a long time."
"That's true."

Zhang Xiaoming froze in place upon hearing this. He said in a trembling voice, "When I first came to this dormitory, I also saw someone jumping out of the window."
"I looked down from the window at the time, but there was no one on the ground, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But the next day someone told me that the person who jumped was clinging to the wall and he didn't actually fall to the ground."
As Zhang Xiaoming said this, cold sweat broke out on his body. He thought that it was a good thing that he did not look at the wall at that time. If he had seen the wall, he felt that he might have been scared to death on the spot.
Upon hearing this, Lie and Ji Sijian walked straight towards the window, then lowered their heads and looked at the wall, but there was nothing on the wall.
Zhang Xiaoming: “…”
Aren’t they a little too bold?!
Lie looked out the window and didn't see the ghost on the wall, so he asked Zhang Xiaoming: "When you came here, you also saw a person wearing white clothes and long hair?"
Zhang Xiaoming nodded and said, "I see!"
"They told me that this person was a reflection of the person who left the school."
strong:"???"
shadow?
Ji Sijian: “???”
Does it mean that when people leave school, their shadows will remain here?
Zhang Xiaoming looked at the puzzled Lie and Ji Sijian and explained, "Let me tell you from the beginning."
strong:"......"
I've been waiting for you to start from the beginning.
Ji Sijian: “…”
It's you who keeps talking about this and that, but you never get to the point.
"They told me that one day, the senior who lived in this dormitory suddenly put on a long white skirt, and his hair grew longer overnight. Many people were surprised by this."
"Why did his hair grow longer? Why is there a long white skirt in the boys' dormitory?"
"And during that time, this senior's behavior was very strange, as if he was crazy. Whenever he saw someone, he would say to that person, 'I found a way out. Do you want to come with me?'"
"Everyone may have doubts about whether he has really found a way out, but seeing how crazy he is, no one believes it."
"Until one day, someone saw him sitting by the window, waving hello to the people downstairs, and mumbling something like, 'I'm going to jump down, I'll go back home.' As he spoke, he took out the knife in his hand and cut his wrist. Someone asked him why he cut his wrist, and he said that only when the blood was drained could he go back home."
"I found it a little unbelievable at the time. After the blood had dried up and everyone was dead, how could they return to their original world?"
"What happened in the end?" Lie asked.
"I heard from them that the senior student bled to death, his white skirt turned red, and he fell from the seventh-floor window."
"Did he go back then?"
"I don't know about that, but I heard some people say he went back, while others said he didn't. Some people said they saw this senior at school, and his shadow did come back, but it looked completely different from the real him. It was like he looked like himself, but his shadow was a ferocious monster."
"Some of them said that the senior might have gone crazy and was cleared out of the school. Others said that the senior might have been devoured by a monster, so the person who left might not be the senior himself, but the monster in the shadow."
