The male ghost tried to play dumb: "I don't understand what you are saying."
Tang Xin Jue: "Then let me explain a little more—the body rotted quickly, but the clothes were new. The black liquid must have been rubbed onto it from the space outside the rift. That space can accommodate many adult bodies moving back and forth. Judging from its size and movement, it should be a corridor."
"And in this corridor, there were students like us before, but you killed them and replaced them. Perhaps through this, you found a way to leave your native environment and successfully found us."
"It's a shame you lack the skills and courage. Even though you had some information in advance, you only dared to come here and pretend to be the dormitory manager to launch a sneak attack. And after discovering the ghost belonging to the girls' dormitory had awakened, you immediately fled and hid here in fear. Having said that, does your memory suddenly become a little clearer?"
“…”
Even if the ghosts didn't say it, everyone, even the female ghosts, understood it.
The amount of information revealed behind these situations far exceeded their initial imagination.
Jiang Lan frowned. "Are there more than just us candidates in this instance?"
Jiang suddenly realized, "There are more than just girls' dormitories on this floor?"
The boy squatting on the ground like a dead fish also shuddered, opened his eyes wide and looked at Jiang Lan, then shifted his gaze to Tang Xinjue and his group: "What the hell...exam candidates??"
It flipped over like a dead fish: "You are still alive? Wait, if you were alive, why are they here... Impossible, you didn't fight?"
All the ghosts fluttering on the ground raised their heads in disbelief. They had originally thought that these girls had long been possessed by the ghosts who originally lived in the girls' dormitory, and they never thought that the two sides could coexist harmoniously.
The ghosts who originally lived in the women's dormitory held their heads high and said, "Have you ever heard of a temporary united front?"
They can't even do the Hezong Alliance, yet they still mock them as earthbound spirits? Ha, what a country bumpkin!
Ghosts have their own way of communicating, and humans have their own way of communicating.
After Jiang tactfully suggested that the scene of them torturing their own kind might be a bit inhumane, and recalling the sight of the boy vomiting insects, everyone quietly exited 919, leaving them ample room to flourish. Only No. 11 and No. 13, worried about their health, remained inside to guard.
After a few minutes, the screams stopped and the door reopened. Numbers 11 and 12, looking pale, rushed out and ran to the toilet. The sound of vomiting could be heard from a distance.
Student Jiang stood in 919 and greeted, "Sorry, I used too much force just now. Both arms of this body are dislocated. Can someone help me straighten them?"
Walking forward, Tang Xinjue saw that there were two fewer male ghosts, and there was a pool of meat paste and black liquid of unknown shape on the ground. The remaining ghosts were dying and no longer had the strength to lie.
This time, they said everything.
…
"So the men's dorm is behind the women's dorm. Both dormitories are combined in the same dormitory building, separated by a corridor..."
Based on the information provided by the ghost, Tang Xinjue quickly drew a new layout.
They originally thought that the 9th floor consisted of a corridor and three dormitories, but it turned out to be another world.
According to the male ghost, this building was originally an office building. In order to make the interior structure look like a dormitory, the school built two walls in the middle to divide it into male and female dormitories, and separated the middle with a corridor that was almost like a secret passage, so that students could be monitored at any time.
"We were originally dead in the men's dormitory, but one day we suddenly found ourselves able to move and saw living people moving into the dormitory. Then we received a notice saying that this place had become an exam instance..."
The memories of the male ghosts were similar to those of the female ghosts. They also wanted to seek revenge on the Academic Affairs Office, but found themselves trapped in the male dormitory and unable to leave. So they set their sights on the "exam candidates" who had just moved in.
The students in the men's dorm naturally treated the student ghost as a dungeon boss, and after a few days, both sides were defeated. Although the ghost successfully took over many bodies, there were a few tough ones that he could not break through. Until...
"Until the clearance deadline expired." Tang Xinjue's eyes flickered slightly. "Then what happened?"
The boy was dejected. "Who knew those students would suddenly go crazy? They said they were cheated and couldn't get out, and then they started destroying our dormitory. I didn't expect them to actually break out. But we couldn't get out, so we could only watch them leave... Then, after some time, we were able to get out and found this secret base left by the Academic Affairs Office. Unfortunately, there was no one inside. I wonder where those bastards from the school have hidden themselves."
"Then, we sensed the presence of a living person in the women's dormitory, so we figured we'd just sit back and do nothing..."
Everyone already knows what happened after that.
Jiang was speechless and furious, "So you were awake for all this time in vain and didn't even see the Academic Affairs Office?"
So many ghosts killed by the school are still wandering around the dormitory building, but the school is allowed to hide safely in some unknown corner and use a few ghosts to instigate the students to fall apart. It is simply a great shame!
The male ghost, however, accepted his fate very well: "Alas, if we were awesome, we wouldn't have been killed by this crappy school in our lifetime."
Besides, when they were fighting with the students, their manpower was almost completely depleted. Even if they found the Academic Affairs Office now, they would probably be like weak chickens rushing to serve food, so it would be better for them to stay here quietly.
Number 5 finally understood: "What's your mentality? You can't handle the school, but you don't want others to have an easy time. You even come here to cause trouble?"
She pointed indignantly, and saw Tang Xinjue shaking the topographic map he had just completed and showing it to a few male ghosts: "Is there anything wrong?"
The other person raised his eyelids with despair: "It's okay... No, the corridor is too short."
It raised a finger and gestured, "This corridor is incredibly long. So long that even us local ghosts would get lost. I'm not bragging, but if you were in my place, you wouldn't be able to find the Academic Affairs Office either."
Tang Xin Jue nodded: "It's okay, you've already tried this route once. We can achieve twice the result with half the effort by following the experience of our predecessors."
Male ghost: “…”
After confirming other information in detail and having a brief discussion, everyone immediately began to prepare to enter the corridor behind the crack.
They had already checked and found that the cracks near the corners of 919 and 921 were both connected to the same space. These holes were not made by the male ghosts, but were most likely the passages used by the Academic Affairs Office and its minions to enter and exit.
Nine times out of ten, they are hiding in this corridor!
The ghosts in the women's dormitory couldn't leave because of some inexplicable restriction. Jiang could only watch them prepare. "If you find those bastards in the Academic Affairs Office, you must remove our seal immediately! We are allies!"
Tang Xin Jue: "Don't worry, you are an important fighting force. Even if you don't want to do it anymore, I will drag you over to fight."
Jiang finally breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand, "Leave the wounded who are unable to move to us. It's our fault anyway. Don't worry, we will ensure their safety."
Ah Nian, injured in the dream, and No. 15 and Ou Ruofei, still weak and not fully awake after being possessed, were all disabled. Of the remaining people, No. 11 and No. 12 hesitated for a moment before choosing to stay. Firstly, they were worried about their two roommates being there, and secondly, they had little fighting ability and probably wouldn't be able to resist the evil spirits if they encountered them.
In comparison, they would rather stay with female ghosts and feel a little safer.
"Then it's settled."
After counting the number of people, the ten people were ready to go. The male ghost was in the corner, stroking his bald head and snorting secretly, secretly cursing them in his heart, when he was picked up the next moment.
Male ghost: "??? Why are you arresting me?"
Zheng Wanqing pulled him up with one hand like a chick: "We need someone to show us the way, and I think you're suitable."
"Wait a minute, beautiful lady, you look so pretty, how can you be so cruel? I'm just a wandering ghost, and you have the heart to capture me and use me as cannon fodder?"
Ignoring the ghost's frantic struggle, Zheng Wanqing threw him to the front of the team and twisted his wrist: "My fist is more beautiful, and it can also cure your baldness. Do you want to see it?"
Male ghost: "...How, how do you cure baldness?"
The girl said coldly: "It's very simple, just cut off your head."
