Chapter 320 Breathing Sound



Shang Qianyu, who was frightened out of his wits, let go of the door handle, ran into the dormitory as fast as he could, and squatted behind a cabinet.

"Run, run, run!!!"

Although Shang Qianyu, who is not as image-conscious as Feng Luo, has also had her facial expressions broken a few times, this time is definitely the worst time for her image! She was also too scared - where is the place for people to run in the student dormitory?

The balcony was completely sealed off, with thick bricks and tiles outside the wooden planks. It was more like a prison cell than a dormitory, and one that someone had died in! There was no way out if I ran into the room.

Zhang Wei swallowed loudly and backed away slowly: "I don't think we need to be nervous yet. No matter what, the production team won't give us a situation where we are doomed, right?"

The road ahead is blocked, and there is no way to run back...

Before they entered the dormitory, they had already done basically everything they could, even checking the mirror. They really couldn't think of anything that was missing or anything that could be further optimized.

Geng Fangyi, who had just finished checking the cabinet, was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

After a dozen seconds of teeth-grinding silence, the person at the door sang in a terrifying nursery rhyme: "After 9 p.m.... you are not allowed to visit the dormitory... you are not allowed to make loud noises."

21 o'clock...

Zhang Wei ignored his fear and took out the clock directly from his backpack.

It’s just after seven in the evening, but it’s not too bad!

Fortunately, they arrived early and fortunately, they remembered to take the clock away from the classroom!

The monster at the door stared at the three people for a while, and continued to sing: "Everyone, must return to the assigned dormitory before 21:00..."

"After 9 p.m.... don't turn on the lights, don't open the windows, don't draw the curtains... don't look outside..."

"No matter what happens, don't open the door..."

"If you encounter danger, you can go to the dormitory room on the third floor...Please note that the dormitory room can only accommodate 2 people at most! Be sure to lock the door after entering the dormitory room!"

"There is no dormitory inspection. If you encounter one... please do not open the door..."

After singing, the monster let go of the door handle and disappeared from the sight of the three people in an instant.

The three people who had escaped death were already frightened to the point that their legs were shaking, and now they looked at each other in bewilderment.

"They actually... brought the Strange Talk of Rules!" Zhang Wei carefully poked his head out, and after making sure that there was no one else at either end of the corridor, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Secret Room, Werewolf, Strange Talk of Rules... Such malicious intent!"

"It's mainly because the psychological suggestion of this secret room is so well done. Not only did they work hard on the scares, but they also paid great attention to many details that might not be noticed. We have to scare ourselves..."

Geng Fangyi thought for a moment and said, "Fortunately, these rules don't look complicated. As long as we follow them carefully, there shouldn't be any danger."

"I don't think it will be that simple... Do you still remember our mission?"

"If you find a student ID, you can get a room. If you find some useful items, you can sell them for money."

"Hmm... the NPC in the safe zone also said that there is a secret hidden in the dormitory. If we can find this secret, it may greatly increase our chances of survival."

"Then let's go find our student ID cards." Shang Qianyu hadn't recovered from the shock just now, and his legs couldn't help shaking. "That...that person just now said that as long as we lock ourselves in the room, we'll be absolutely safe?"

"You can't trust all the rules in the Rules Ghost Story, and you can't make judgments so quickly."

Zhang Wei waved at the two people behind him and said, "There are less than two hours left. It's not too long or too short. Let's hurry up."

"Where are we going now?" Geng Fangyi asked.

Shang Qianyu finally came to his senses at this time: "I think... we should go to the dormitory management office on the third floor to take a look."

Geng Fangyi hesitated: "But the dormitory can only accommodate two people at most, what should we do?"

"Either leave one person in the dormitory, or the three of us go up to the third floor together, with two people going into the room and one person guarding outside." Zhang Wei didn't hesitate and quickly gave a solution, "Which one do you think is better?"

Judging from the current rules, it is certainly safe for one person to hide in the dormitory with the door locked, but who knows if there are any hidden rules, and who knows if the remaining people will hide any information from themselves? You know, there are traitors in the team! And even if we make the most ideal assumption, assuming that Feng Luo is the traitor, and the three of them are teammates, there can only be 3 winners in a team.

Who knows if someone will trip up their teammates in advance in order to win in the end?

Even if it is to get through the early stages more smoothly and avoid setbacks too quickly, it is hard to say whether someone will leave some clues when allocating dormitories and use them later.

Although they are teammates, in fact, the competition is fierce. You have to speculate about others with the greatest malice, otherwise you will be the one eliminated!

"Let's go together." Geng Fangyi said without hesitation, "Let's take turns going in."

The three of them exchanged glances, then took a step and walked lightly to the third floor.

After experiencing the horrifying experience of Feng Luo disappearing out of sight within a dozen seconds, they would never split up in a place like the stairs again unless it was absolutely necessary.

It took about three or four minutes for them to finally move slowly to the third floor.

As soon as I stepped onto the third floor, the light of a flashlight dimmed! "Not good... we need to speed up!"

"It's so scary. I feel like if I stay here for a long time, I'll get sick even if I'm not sick."

"We are still lucky. At least we have four torches in our hands, so we feel more confident. I don't know how the other teams are doing now..."

"There seems to be a light ahead. Is that the dormitory management office?"

"Go and have a look..."

The three of them looked ahead as they walked through the deep corridor. From time to time, they heard rustling sounds behind them, like insects crawling, and it also made them wonder if someone was slowly approaching from a certain direction.

Shang Qianyu's scalp had begun to feel cold. He barely resisted the urge to run and quickened his pace towards the dormitory management office.

Finally, the three of them approached the lighted room and saw clearly the sign hanging on the door.

"Dorm Room"

It turned out to be the dormitory management office.

However, the three people, who already had some post-traumatic stress disorder, did not rush to push the door open. Instead, they concentrated their minds, put their ears to the door, and listened to the movements inside.

In such a dormitory building, there is only one place with obvious light, which seems abnormal no matter how you look at it.

“Hoo…Hoo…Hoo…”

There are obvious, intermittent breathing sounds. Combined with the information that "the dormitory room is safe", could it be that there is also a friendly NPC in this room?

Before Zhang Wei could speak, the breathing sounds in the room suddenly stopped!

Not only did the breathing stop, but even the rustling sounds behind them stopped at the same time! In an instant, the three of them felt a complete chill!

In the darkness, it seemed as if countless pairs of malicious eyes appeared and were staring at them.

"Hurry... hurry and open the door!" Shang Qianyu was almost scared to tears, "If we waste any more time, something bad will really happen!"

Geng Fangyi couldn't care less at this moment. He mustered up his courage and opened the wooden door of the dormitory management office.

Inside, an old chandelier was swaying slightly, and an old chair was placed in the corner, but no one was in sight.

The heavy breathing just now seemed like an illusion.

There were a few big bright red words on the whiteboard in the room.

“Don’t stay in the dorm room for more than 10 minutes!!!”

Several people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then they encountered another very important problem: "Who goes in first?"

The dormitory room can only accommodate a maximum of two people, and there are three people here now.

"You guys go in first." At this time, Geng Fangyi suddenly said, "I'll wait outside for a while, as soon as possible."

It’s not that he has any spirit of dedication, but he considered the performance of everyone today and found that even if the team won, he might not be able to make it into the top three, so he wanted to perform better.

If someone takes the initiative to step forward, Zhang Wei and Shang Qianyu will definitely not be polite.

More importantly...they are both traitors, and now they finally have an independent space to exchange information. How can they miss this opportunity?

The two looked at each other knowingly, walked into the dormitory management office, and quietly closed and locked the door as required by the rules.

"There's a register on the table, take a look." Shang Qianyu didn't waste any time and walked to the table. "It has the dormitory number and an empty name column."

Zhang Wei walked up carefully, glanced at the registration book that was firmly stuck on the table, and asked uncertainly: "Does this mean that as long as we fill in our names on the list, we can arrange beds for everyone?"

"It should be...wait, the fourth floor?! Can we also arrange for the names of the dormitories on the fourth floor?!" Shang Qianyu reached out and flipped through the name list, and suddenly exclaimed, "Feng...Sister Feng Luo's name is actually on it!"

"Feng Luo's name is on it?" Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment, "Then if we erase her name, will she be able to come out?"

"It's possible, so... rub it?"

"Wipe it, it's not a good idea to reduce the number of members in the team now."

After wiping the name, the two searched the cabinet again. After more than ten seconds, Shang Qianyu exclaimed, "There are several school cards here. Come and take a look."

Identity card? Zhang Wei's eyes lit up and he hurried over.

"Student card... student card... student card... duty..." Zhang Wei picked up a few ID cards at random and muttered to himself as he looked at them.

Suddenly, he was stunned: "Wait! What is this, a duty card?!"

Apparently because of the rough movement, a piece of paper fell out of the duty card.

"Rules for students on duty."

"Students on duty are different from ordinary students. They can check dormitories between 21:00 and 21:30."

"The student on duty has three one-time master keys that can open any door in the dormitory building! Please use them with caution!"

"Attention: The duty student is a special ID card for the inner ghost. Do not let any normal players find out your duty student identity, otherwise all your health points will be deducted and you will be eliminated directly!!!"

After reading this rule, Zhang Wei and Shang Qianyu looked at each other.

"This... is a huge advantage!" Zhang Wei was surprised. "If we want to harm someone, can't we just sneak out at night and use the key to open the door of a room?"

"No wonder that NPC just now told us not to open the door if we encounter dormitory inspections... Turns out I'm the bad guy?"

"But if you are discovered, you won't have any chance at all and will be eliminated directly."

"High risk, high reward... Anyway, keep it for now, it will definitely be useful in the future."

"I feel like if the two of us hadn't come in together, this cabinet would have been locked, and normal guests would only be able to see the student ID."

After closing the cabinet, they quickly found a faculty ID card in another cabinet.

Like the duty student ID card, there is also a note hidden inside the faculty ID card.

"Dormitory Staff Rules."

“Faculty and staff can safely use the faculty elevator in the dormitory.”

“Staff can freely enter and exit the equipment room, warehouse and staff room.”

Compared with the rules for monitors, the privileges that can be obtained by being a faculty member are obviously fewer, and it is obviously not an identity card that only belongs to insiders.

But... the upside is that you can access the elevator.

"What do you think is the difference between the faculty elevator and stairs in the dormitory?" Shang Qianyu asked after looking at the ID card.

"We won't know until we get in the elevator." Zhang Wei shook his head and glanced at the register on the table. "Let's arrange the dormitory first."

"Okay... I think it would be best if our dormitory is closer to the dormitory management office, so that we can escape quickly if we encounter any accidents."

"I feel like this register will disappear after we leave the dormitory this time, so we have to make careful arrangements."

After a brief discussion, the two began to write their names on the register.

Swish, swish, swish…

However, not long after I started writing, the lights in the room suddenly began to shake violently! The original incandescent light gradually turned red! The strange red light filled every corner of the room, and the big red words on the whiteboard became more conspicuous and more terrifying! "Time is almost up, hurry up!"

The two of them quickened their hands, arranged the rooms for their group, and then began to make random arrangements on the roster.

As for the rooms on the 4th floor, they felt that the current arrangement was inappropriate - such an obviously malicious move would likely be met with a joint boycott by all other groups.

After writing their names, the two put down their pens and were about to leave the room...

Suddenly, a very loud scream came from outside the door, as if someone had been frightened by something terrifying!

This is Geng Fangyi's voice!

The screams soon faded away... I don’t know whether Geng Fangyi was captured or escaped.

Shang Qianyu, who was originally planning to open the door, suddenly turned pale and his eyes subconsciously turned to the clock, wanting to see how many minutes he could stay in the dormitory management office.

"There are still... two minutes left. How about we hide inside first?"

Zhang Wei nodded and put his ear to the door, intending to listen to the noise outside.

Outside the door, there was a familiar, intermittent breathing sound.

Before entering the door, they heard the same sound outside.

Just when Zhang Wei's heart couldn't help but beat wildly, suddenly, his breathing stopped.

The familiar feeling of fear instantly crawled up their spines to the back of their heads.

Their intuition told them that just across the door, there was a figure standing there quietly, waiting for them to open the door.
