Jin Wen quickly got up, washed, picked up her schoolbag and hurried to the teaching building, but still missed the morning bell.
Normally, if someone in the dormitory is late for a morning class, the other roommates will help her find a spot. But today, Jin Wen called out several times in the dormitory group, but her three roommates didn't respond at all.
She could only sneak in through the back door and saw that the classroom was already packed, with only one seat in the third row from the back barely vacant. Coincidentally, several girls next to that seat turned their heads and looked at her. Their faces struck Jin Wen as familiar.
Oh, Jin Wen remembered that these four people were her classmates in dormitory 606, which was right across the street. However, she didn’t interact with them very often, so she couldn’t even remember their names.
Jin Wen ran over a little embarrassedly, "Excuse me, is there anyone here?"
The leading girl was very thin, with cold white skin that looked a little malnourished. She smiled friendly and whispered softly, "Sit down."
This must be a very weak girl, Jin Wen thought.
…
During class, Jin Wen was always absent-minded.
She wanted to ask her roommate if she wanted to have lunch together, but she got no response no matter she tagged her in the group or sent her a private message.
As soon as the bell rang, she hurriedly picked up her bag and was about to leave, but was suddenly grabbed by the arm by the weak girl next to her: "By the way, Jin Wen, I have something to ask you."
"Ah, what's wrong?" For some reason, Jin Wen subconsciously didn't want to talk to the other party, but when she saw the girl's friendly smile, she couldn't help but let down her guard.
Then, the girl smiled and said, "When we left this morning, we saw a yellow square paper package hanging on the door of your dormitory. I'd like to ask what it is?"
"This..." Jin Wen was speechless for a moment. She was embarrassed to say that it was used for performing rituals to improve luck, so she evaded the question by saying, "It's just a decoration. It looks nice."
...Only a ghost would believe that. The paper bag is weird and abrupt, and it doesn't look good at all.
Realizing that her words were incoherent, Jin Wen hurriedly left the classroom in embarrassment, not knowing that behind her, four "neighbor" girls were staring at the direction she left and did not move for a long time.
A busy day of classes passed quickly, and Jin Wen only had time to return to the dormitory after dinner.
If she remembered correctly, her roommates should not have classes at that time, but when she knocked on the dormitory door, no one answered.
What's going on? Where did my roommate go today?
Full of questions, Jin Wen suddenly heard her roommate's voice faintly from behind her. She turned around in surprise and found that the voice came from the half-open door of the dormitory 606 opposite.
...My roommate is in the dormitory across the street?
When I pushed open the half-open door, I saw my roommate who had been "missing" for the whole day.
"Wei Xian, Cao Rou, Zhou Xing, why are you here?"
The three roommates did not respond to Jin Wen's surprised question at all. They were enthusiastically pulling four classmates from the neighboring dormitory to promote the yellow paper fortune-changing technique.
"This is what my master taught me. It works every time. Ever since we finished doing this in our dorm last week, I've felt completely refreshed, and my life has been going smoothly! We're all classmates, so I'm teaching you this method, so use it today!"
Wei Xian was pulling a short, short-haired girl and trying to sell her product like crazy. The girl shrank her neck in fear and looked very helpless.
Jin Wen: "...No, Wei Xian, what are you doing? Don't grab me so hard!"
Help! People are going to think their dormitory is involved in a pyramid scheme!
After finally pulling Wei Xian's excited arm down, Jin Wen was horrified to discover that her other two roommates were no less excited - Cao Rou was holding onto a beautiful girl with a cold face and wouldn't let go, while Zhou Xing was pestering another girl wearing glasses and even trying to force her to write down her date of birth.
The "victims" who were being harassed, and who were also the classmates who gave up their seats to Jin Wen this morning, all had expressions of despair on their faces, and seemed not to be interested in the recommendations of Wei Xian and others at all.
Jin Wen: ...Her roommate was obviously not like this before!
The only one who "spent" her life brought her back to her senses. It was the delicate girl from the morning class. Still smiling, she asked, "The yellow paper fortune-changing spell, is that the paper packet you hang on your dormitory door?"
She handed over a red paper bag. "These are the cooking supplies your roommate insisted we take. Please take them back. We really can't use them."
"Yes... I'm really sorry to bother you." Jin Wen felt her face burning and she was too ashamed to face these classmates. She quickly used all her strength to drag the three roommates who were in a frenzy back to her dormitory.
Bang! The dormitory door closed behind her hurried back.
The dormitory, which had been noisy just now, suddenly became quiet. The few people who had been harassed straightened their clothes and looked at each other.
"Huh..." Guo Guo let out a long breath, "They finally left. If it had been any longer, I would have resisted."
After being strengthened by the game rewards, their physical fitness is almost double that of ordinary people. If they really start fighting, they can easily injure a few ordinary female college students.
"Ordinary female college student?"
Zheng Wanqing frowned and rolled up her sleeves, which gave rise to goose bumps. "They look like perverts to me."
Of course, judging from the movie, the roommates of the heroine "Jin Wen" are all obvious ghost candidates, and now they are mentally abnormal, which is actually relatively normal.
Tang Xin Jue twisted his wrist and looked around. "Everything here is the same as our dormitory. Maybe it's convenient for the film's theme, so the whole dormitory is inside."
The geographical environment is familiar, making combat very convenient.
She glanced out at the balcony. "It's sunset now, but it's not completely dark yet. Let's start by organizing the information and reviewing the situation."
First of all, there is no doubt that they are now in the "replay" of "Headless Tales 2".
About ten hours ago, the four of them woke up from the dormitory in the game reality. After resting, they opened the second part of the Headless Ghost Story series while still remembering the plot of the first part.
Although the length of "Headless 2" is the shortest of the three films, the final Q&A is equally outrageous:
[Excuse me, among the four characters in Dormitory 612 in the movie, which one died first?]
[A. Wei Xian]
[B, Jin Wen]
[C, Cao Rou]
[D, Zhou Xing]
If they remembered correctly, the three people in the movie, except Jin Wen, clearly lost their heads at the same time.
…
In short, after choosing B by the process of elimination - Jin Wen's first kill, the system decisively determined that they had answered incorrectly and then teleported them into this movie.
When I met Jin Wen in the classroom during morning class, they had just arrived here.
"This time I didn't dress up as a movie character directly, but became the roommate next door to the protagonists. That's not bad."
Guo Guo was very relieved, otherwise the madness of these characters today would be enough to cause her sanity to drop rapidly.
During this day, they really attended classes like college students, but they spent most of their time collecting information from the students around them.
"From what I can see so far, this movie's worldview is quite complete, and the map is quite large." Zhang You listed the information one by one on a piece of paper. "At least, the campus and the dormitory areas are all accessible normally."
They even tried to leave the school, but they learned that a murder had occurred a few days ago, leading to a school-wide lockdown. All students were confined to the school grounds and could not leave unless they had special permission.
At this point, the four of them exchanged glances in tacit understanding.
——There is no doubt that the "bloody case" that was not mentioned in the movie is a clue that needs to be explored.
…
Across the two-meter corridor, Jin Wen closed the dormitory door and sighed heavily.
She pulled out her phone and complained, "I couldn't find you all today. Not only did you not reply to my messages, but you even went to other people's dorms to cause trouble. They might not believe this, and we're not even close to them. This is definitely going to be awkward."
Jin Wen walked to the water dispenser and filled herself with a glass of water. The more she thought about it, the more strange it became: "You two must explain clearly today. I don't think something is right with you today..."
"Jin Wen, come over and take a look at the paper bag on our door. Is it tilted?"
The roommate's voice suddenly sounded from behind, and Jin Wen froze.
The tone was flat and cold, with no emotion in the voice, which suddenly reminded her of the scene in her nightmare.
...Even the direction from behind is exactly the same!
"Jin Wen, why don't you come and take a look?"
"Come on, you're the only one missing."
Amid the continuous urging voice that almost overlapped with the dream, a fine chill crept up Jinwen's back.
