Chapter 996 The Returnee's Notes 70
Perhaps it's not just students who are like this; many people are like this. They hear something from someone else, and then it changes again, becoming a vivid and detailed version, as if they saw it with their own eyes.
Just like the will-o'-the-wisp just now, they have imagined countless identities for it, and the same goes for this vengeful spirit.
Despite saying that, Xie Ning still decided to investigate. Will-o'-the-wisps could be explained scientifically, but the vengeful spirit was still a bit strange, because Xiao Liu lived in dormitory 104, and Xie Ning saw a trace of black aura on Xiao Liu's face.
Even if the situation is different from what the students are saying, there must be something that makes the girls in dormitory 104 have a trace of bad yin energy.
When the time comes, we'll be able to tell whether it's true or false.
However, she had notified Wang Ze to come and meet her beforehand, which would provide an extra layer of protection.
Xie Ning had checked out dormitory 104 during the day but didn't notice anything unusual, so she decided to stay there for the night.
Wang Ze couldn't get in, so he waited for him behind a section of the vegetable garden fence outside the girls' dormitory balcony, just in case.
There was actually no commission fee, but since it was a school, Wang Ze was happy to come and help out.
Since Xiao Liu lived in that dormitory, Xie Ning made an excuse to let Xiao Liu stay with her for one night, and also brought some snacks for the other dormitory members so that the others wouldn't be too dissatisfied.
"I thought you were very brave."
Xie Ning's excuse was that Xie Li had gone out, and she was too scared to sleep alone at home.
The others laughed too, "Ah Ning, where did you buy these plums? They're so crisp!"
"Go into the main street and turn right. There's a small shop there that specializes in selling pickled plums. I think theirs are the best."
Besides plums, Xie Ning also brought other snacks. There were eleven people living in this dormitory, with a total of six bunk beds. One bed was left for the others to put their luggage.
The already small dormitory felt extremely crowded.
The balcony is also very small. Since it's on the first floor, they hung a few pieces of cloth on it to prevent outsiders from peeping. Also, there are too many people in the dormitory, and queuing to shower is too slow, so they came up with the idea of hanging cloth so that when there are many people, they can shower directly on the balcony.
Otherwise, if classes end at five and evening study starts at seven, there's no time to eat, queue for showers, or do laundry.
It's summer now, and everyone's beds are simply covered with a rolled-up straw mat and a thin blanket—very simple.
Xie Ning wasn't uncomfortable at all; after all, she had experienced the ultimate luxury and also endured the worst and most difficult environments.
The lights are still on, and everyone is chatting while doing laundry.
Xiao Liu is a girl who likes to tidy up, so her bed is neater than the other girls in the dormitory.
The girl diagonally opposite her was different; she slept with a pile of clothes haphazardly on her bed.
"It's quite late now. If you're sleepy, you can sleep inside. I'll sleep outside. After all, my hair is long, and it will take a long time for it to dry."
Xiao Liu sat on the edge of the bed, drying her hair. Because she had to attend evening study sessions, she didn't have time to wash her hair and would have to wait until after the sessions to wash it with water from the thermos.
It's so late, there's no hot water left at the water room.
There was always a long queue at the shower room, and she wasn't very strong. Her dormitory was also far from the water room, so she could only carry half a bucket of hot water back to her dormitory, just enough for a shower.
Fortunately, she still had hot water in her thermos, so she could wash her hair.
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." Xie Ning sat at the other end, chatting with others while carefully observing the changes in the dormitory.
Summers in the south are usually quite humid, but she didn't feel that way in this dormitory; instead, she felt a bit cool.
Xie Ning looked down at the compass in his hand. It wasn't turning; it was abnormally still. And it was at times like this that he could perform spirit summoning.
That is, communicating with the spirit.
Unlike others, she can see spirits directly. However, Xie Ning has not seen anything strange so far, except that dormitory 104 is cooler than other places.
Wang Ze, who was feeding mosquitoes outside the wall, also had the same feeling, but his feeling was more obvious than Xie Ning's. The moment he opened his compass, a feeling of suffocation rushed over him.
This is the spirit actively revealing its aura to make him aware of its presence, thereby threatening him to leave this place.
Even through the fence and the vegetable patch more than two meters high, Wang Ze could still hear the dripping sound of water. This wasn't right...
The dormitory lights are still on, and he just heard the female students doing laundry and chatting.
Why did it suddenly become quiet?
When the clock struck eleven, the dormitory lights suddenly went out.
The lights are off.
The girls fell silent. When there was light, none of them felt afraid, but when the light went out, they instantly remembered the strange things that had happened recently, and they were frightened and stopped talking.
Xiao Liu pulled Xie Ning down to lie down as well, "Let's go to sleep."
At this moment, Xie Ning also turned off her phone screen. She had just seen the message from Wang Ze, telling her not to act rashly and to act like an ordinary student.
Go to sleep, things will be fine after tonight.
My gaze fell on the window in front of me, where there was a faint light coming from the school building across a basketball court.
A cool, gloomy atmosphere spread out, and Xie Ningjing quietly closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing, as if she had truly fallen asleep.
