Chapter 20 A cold hand encircled her.
"You said you are Ren Yuanxing?" Huang Linye looked at the pitiful girl with red eyes in front of him in disbelief and couldn't help but step forward to ask.
"Um." The girl shrank back fearfully. "What's wrong? Do you know me?"
"You, weren't you missing?" Huang Linye scratched his head, looking puzzled.
They were also secretly wondering to themselves, and their mission was to find Ren Yuanxing, so the mission should have been completed by now.
Lin Dong and Lin Xi stood to the side, scrutinizing her expressionlessly.
"I... I was killed by them." The girl who called herself Ren Yuanxing said this with a look of resentment on her face.
Two streams of bloody tears flowed from her eyes.
"They tore me into pieces, but thankfully I woke up again, but they still wouldn't let me go..."
Lin Xi took a step forward, bent down, and softened her tone: "Is there anything we can do for you?"
"They hid my heart. My heart contains all my strength, so I am weak now and can't beat them."
At this point, Ren Yuanxing's eyes gleamed with longing: "Can you help me find my heart?"
“Okay, we can help you.” Lin Xi nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Ren Yuanxing smiled through his tears: "Thank you. When you find the heart, you can come to the rooftop to find me. I will be waiting for you there."
As she spoke, her figure gradually disappeared.
Huang Linye suddenly realized: "So she was missing her heart. No wonder we didn't get a success notification when we found her."
Lin Xi rolled her eyes at him: "Idiot."
With that, he turned and walked out with Lin Dong.
Huang Linye jogged up to catch up: "What do you mean? Are you saying she lied to us?" He lowered his voice as he finished speaking.
"No matter what, let's find the heart first."
The three of them walked out of the grove as they talked, when they suddenly heard strange footsteps.
The footsteps didn't sound like they came from one person, but rather from a group of people, with a strange rhythm.
The clicking sound was like the teeth-grinding noise of joints turning.
Lin Xi and Lin Dong quickly pulled Huang Linye back to the grove and used props to hide the three of them.
Looking out from the grove, you can see the dilapidated little garden in front of the teaching building, and the roads leading to all directions of the school.
There's only a faint streetlight a long way along the road.
At this moment, you can see dark figures slowly gathering from the ground under the streetlights and then standing up, quickly transforming into human form.
The "person" rotated its joints and turned its head, revealing that its face had no facial features whatsoever.
In front of it, there were many other "people" lined up in a neat row.
At the very front of the group was a tall figure, flanked by a man and a woman who seemed to be talking to each other.
Suddenly, the voice that was in the lead turned its head, seemingly looking directly towards the direction of the first-floor restroom.
Lin Xi and his two companions felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had been discovered.
The feeling was terrifying like never before; it was as if they were about to die.
Pei Ji smelled the unpleasant odor of the insects, and his expression grew increasingly gloomy.
He missed Yueyue; only Yueyue smelled sweet...
So, amidst the fear on Lin Xi's and the other two's faces, Pei Ji turned his head and left.
Zhang Wen, who had just been standing next to Pei Ji and watched him with a gloomy expression throughout before turning and leaving, didn't understand why he had suddenly left.
"Why is the boss so scary today? I was shivering the whole time I was next to him." Zhang Wen said, looking puzzled.
"Just lead your men on patrol. Anyway, the boss has already injected death energy into us today." Tao Tao looked in the direction Pei Ji left, understanding the situation.
Where else could the eldest go but to find a transfer student?
He loves it so much!
Thinking of this, Tao Tao chuckled twice, rested her chin on her hand with a blissful expression, and excitedly stomped her feet.
Hearing Tao Tao's strange laughter, Zhang Wen turned to look at her, speechless: "What's with that expression? It's disgusting."
Tao Tao turned her head away and ignored him upon hearing this.
Who understands the joy of shipping couples up close!
Since she can't meet any sweet and pretty transfer students anyway, can't she at least enjoy some shipping and entertainment?
Suddenly, a faint sound reached her ears. Tao Tao's previously carefree expression turned serious, and she gave a sinister laugh: "Looks like some little bugs have appeared. Tonight's hunting game begins..."
Jiang Liyue held the small mirror in her hand and examined it repeatedly, but couldn't see anything special about it.
Without thinking too much, she stuffed it into her pocket.
Then she put the things she had found back together and went to check the other three beds.
The cheap perfume smell that hit me when I opened the door came from here, while their table was decorated with all sorts of exquisite and pretty trinkets.
Jiang Liyue flipped through the books and found a pink envelope between the two books.
She didn't rush to look at it, and stuffed it into her pocket as well.
Jiang Liyue then found nothing of value.
The books of the three of them were all clean and new.
Finally, I went into the bathroom and saw that it was no different from 415, except that the mirror on the sink had been removed.
The bathroom also had a smell that was both fragrant and foul.
Jiang Liyue felt dizzy after only staying inside for a short while, so she quickly left room 414.
Back in room 415, Zhu Huan and the other two were still waiting for her anxiously: "Yueyue, have you finished talking to the dorm supervisor?"
"Hmm." Jiang Liyue saw their curious looks but did not satisfy their curiosity as they wished.
Instead, she took a change of clothes and went back to the bathroom.
I first checked the contents of the letter.
Dear Star:
You may know me, or you may not. Let me introduce myself. I am Cheng Yang from Class 4.
I was attracted to you the first time I saw you; you are a kind girl.
The more I pay attention to you, the more I discover your strengths.
...
You are definitely not some insignificant speck of dust; you are a shining star in my eyes.
—Cheng Yang
As expected, it was a love letter, and a love letter to Ren Yuanxing.
Much of the content above had been viciously crossed out and marked with red X's.
Ren Yuanxing's name, in particular, was so badly scratched that it could only be vaguely discerned.
Jiang Liyue instantly recalled the rumored boy from Class 4 who had eloped with Ren Yuanxing.
Could it be this boy named Cheng Yang?
Ren Yuanxing likely never saw the letter; it ended up in the hands of one of her roommates and became one of the reasons she was bullied.
Jiang Liyue roughly filled in the gaps in her mind regarding the relationships between the people, and then carefully put the letter away again.
When the tap was turned on again, the water did not turn into blood this time.
Jiang Liyue didn't mind that the faucet might have been contaminated earlier, and she washed herself carefully before opening the bathroom door.
Zhu Huan and the other two didn't say anything more, and went back to bed at some point.
A possessive gaze fell upon her, and Jiang Liyue felt a strange sensation rise within her.
She lowered her voice and asked, "Are you all asleep?"
No one answered her, so she muttered to herself, "Looks like they're all asleep."
Then, as if nothing had happened, he climbed into his number four bed and lay down quietly.
As her breathing gradually calmed, a pair of cold hands tightly embraced her.
A low, seductive male voice whispered repeatedly in her ear, "Yueyue, I miss you so much..."
It was Pei Ji's voice.
