"It's so dark outside, I'm so scared. Open the door quickly and let me in."

The voice outside the door is still ringing, which should belong to the soft voice of a girl, but in the ears of the people in the bedroom at this moment, it is somewhat indistinguishable, sticky and cold.

Who dares to open the door?

The room was silent, Tang Xinjue thought for a while, and said softly: "The bedroom door seems to be broken, we can't open it. When Wanqing came back just now, the door opened automatically, you stand at the door and try it to see if it will work. Open it yourself?"

Since this so-called game requires people to participate, there is no reason not to open the door to the students who return to the dormitory. It can be seen from the automatic opening and closing of the door when Zheng Wanqing returns.

Since there is no response from the bedroom door now, it can only mean that "Zhang You" outside the door is not of the same kind as them.

There was silence outside the door for two seconds, and the knock on the door suddenly became more urgent. It hit the door with one blow, causing the entire door frame to vibrate slightly.

"You don't want to open the door for me?"

This time, the voice of "Zhang You" became very gloomy, much louder than before.

Standing in front of the door, Tang Xinjue could hear clearly, that gloomy voice almost came in along the door panel resonance... It was like the owner of the voice was lying on the door tightly, with his whole head buried in the crack of the door.

She could even feel that something sticky was flowing under the door. Fortunately, the bedroom was pitch black at this time, and nothing could be seen.

Tang Xinjue pretended not to feel anything, and returned to the two roommates, motioning them not to make a sound.

Zheng Wanqing had always listened to her words, and Guo Guo had no objection to being so frightened that she was out of her body, and the three of them began to pretend to be dead.

No matter how you called it, there was no response inside, and the things outside the door finally gave up their disguise, sneering and the sound of squeaking and scratching the door sounded, one after another, especially harsh in the silence and darkness.

The people in the room were tense, for fear that the door would be scratched open in the next second.

Time became extraordinarily long in the passing of seconds, and after an unknown amount of time, the sound of scratching the door finally disappeared. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Tang Xinjue touched his back, only to find that he was soaked in sweat.

She can only gamble, betting on guessing the "rules of the game", gambling that the dormitory is both a restraint and a protection, betting that nothing outside can get in.

Fortunately, the bet was won.

At this moment, in the corridor outside the door, a hoarse "squeak" sounded - this is the sound of opening the door!

Looking up suddenly, Tang Xinjue realized that this was the door of the opposite bedroom.

Sure enough, a cautious voice sounded: "Is that you, Tao Xin? Great, you're finally back..."

The sound came to an abrupt end as if it had seen something terribly terrifying, and it never sounded again. The door to the next bedroom could only be heard being slowly pushed open - and then slammed shut as the other roommates screamed in horror.

Everything was silent as before.

Guo Guo let out a whimper from behind and slid down uncontrollably. No one dared to discuss aloud, nor to guess what was going on in the dormitory of the opposite door.

After an unknown amount of time passed, when the crisp child's voice was caught off guard, the three of them were startled:

"Ding Ding Ding, Ding Dangdang, did the classmates go back to the dormitory obediently~ Hey, there are a lot of people missing - oh, I seem to have forgotten to tell the classmates that it is very dangerous outside the dormitory, don't open the door lightly."

Tong Yin sounded regretful, but Tang Xinjue noticed a trace of schadenfreude and malice that could not be concealed:

"In any case, I failed to protect my dormitory, resulting in the early elimination of roommates. This is not because educators like students."

"Educators believe that a dormitory roommate must help each other, so as to achieve better results in daily assessments and competitions, and help your school to become a key university. When he finds that there are not enough dormitories, he will be angry, lower your grades, and cancel you. award……"

"Ding, the second rule has been unlocked: please protect your roommate!"

At the same time as this voice sounded, Tang Xinjue looked at the phone, and the time just closed to 9 o'clock.

It's just been half an hour since the last time the child's voice appeared. And the last time it rang for the first time at 8:00, it was another half an hour.

Could it be that this voice appears every half an hour, announcing a rule every time?

Then the game officially starts from 0:00, and this sound will appear again...

Tang Xinjue's thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door, and a familiar voice came from outside the door: "Open the door, I'm Zhang You, let me in."

again?

She didn't hesitate: "Zhang You, look at the top of the door frame, we have made an appointment to put the spare key, do you have any spare keys?"

Outside the door: "Okay...you lied, there is no key, come and open the door."

Tang Xinjue's face was expressionless, but the gentle tone was very indifferent at the moment: "You forgot, we never leave spare keys in our dormitory."

This is not Zhang You!

The next time was exactly the same as before. No matter how terrifying and terrifying the voices were from outside, Tang Xinjue and the three of them resolutely pretended to be dead and never took a step closer to the door.

After a long 30 minutes, the sound outside the door disappeared again.

Then, "Ding Ding Ding, Ding Dang Dang, did the classmates go back to the dormitory obediently?"

"Ah!!" Zheng Wanqing couldn't take it anymore, she ran to the balcony window and shouted angrily: "Enough! Let us out! I don't want to play your game!"

The boy's voice was still giggling maliciously, as if the student protests were very insignificant to it, not even worth paying attention to.

In the laughter, another roommate Guo Guo had already started crying and reciting the Great Compassion Mantra. Facing the chaotic environment, Tang Xinjue patted it and started to have a headache again. With a sigh, he picked up the long strip tool and slapped it hard on the table:

"Quiet!!"

The swallowing mountains and rivers and the deafening impact made the bedroom instantly quiet. Not only that, the two roommates even felt their ears buzzing a bit.

Guo Guo was not surprised, but Zheng Wanqing was stunned. She didn't know how Tang Xinjue, who had always been ill, could burst out with so much power.

"Listen to it, listen carefully."

Tang Xinjue raised her head and stared at the darkness outside the window.

The weird childish voice laughed for a while, and then she stopped pretending to say anything, and simply announced the third rule:

"From the beginning of the game, the dormitory has been completely blocked, and the living can no longer leave the dormitory!"

This is already known.

Guo Guo shivered: "What is [no longer able to leave]? It doesn't say when the game will end?"

- It doesn't even say if the game will end. This thought flashed through Tang Xinjue's mind without saying it.

At this time, there was another mechanical knock on the door...

As time passed, the three of them finally got used to the law of "weird child's voice-announcement of rules-ghost knocking on the door".

Fortunately, the IQ of things outside is not high, and don't know how to change the exact same clichés. Until the next refresh, as if there is no memory of the previous failure 30340, knock on the door again.

Repeated again and again, several people are no longer so afraid of "ghost knocking on the door". After all, practice has proved that as long as they don't open the door on their own initiative, nothing can come in from outside.

Tang Xinjue recorded the rules of children's voices one by one in his heart:

Article 4: When reaching zero o'clock, only if there are no less than two people alive in one dormitory can successfully enter the game, otherwise it will be regarded as a failure and all will be eliminated.

Article 5: Good students will be rewarded, bad students will not.

Article 6: Only the students who happened to be in the dormitory when the game first came, are good students who meet the requirements of the [Educator].

Tang Xinjue frowned: Divide one rule into two, so that they will get less information, this strange childish voice is quite a chicken thief.

In this way, this unidentified child voice seems to have natural malice towards them. On the surface, the rules are reminded again and again, but in fact, it is like squeezing toothpaste intermittently, and every time it happens to be one step behind. If Tang Xinjue hadn't been here, Zheng Wanqing and Guo Guo would have been the first to suffer.

At this time, there were only 60 minutes left in the countdown on the mobile phone, and the hour hand came to 11:00.

A few people have been numb to knocking on the door, and even after getting used to the darkness, they began to study ways to communicate with the outside world. But whether it was knocking on the wall or yelling, there was no response from the two bedrooms next door.

The three of them had an inexplicable feeling that they were familiar with the campus outside the window, but they seemed to be on an isolated island. There are only boundless and empty seas on all sides, and no one can come to save them.

This sense of helplessness culminated in the announcement of the last rule:

"Before the zero-point game starts, if you haven't stayed on campus, if you fail to return to the dormitory, your classmates will be wiped out..." Tong Yin seemed to have accidentally missed her mouth, and changed her words with a grin: "I will be eliminated, Disqualified from the game."

"..."

Guo Zhi exclaimed in a low voice: "Look, the phone screen has changed again!"

I saw four more round frames below the scarlet countdown, three of which were flashing white dots of light, and one of the round frames did not glow and was still dimmed.

Tang Xinjue quickly realized that these light spots symbolized the four roommates in the dormitory. If no one was in the dormitory, the light spots would not light up. There are three people in the dormitory now, so there are only three light spots on.

As the thoughts sounded at the same time, there was a numb and urgent knock on the door: "Let me in!"

Guo Guo shouted in despair: "Knock, knock, no one will open the door if you knock on your throat~"

There was silence outside the door for a moment, and then he shouted furiously: "Guo Guo, you xx! After I go in, I chop you up! Open the door for me!"

"..."

Tang Xinjue raised her head instantly, and Guo Guo and Zheng Wanqing were also taken aback.

"Misty Grass! Why does this monster have a new line?" Guo Guo jumped up and hid behind Tang Xinjue, and Yang Sheng tried to test Tang Xinjue's method: "Cough, Zhang You, didn't you go to see your boyfriend? Why did you come back so early?"

Tang Xinjue opened her up: "Have you ever thought of a possibility, maybe this time it's not a monster?"

Perhaps just in response to her voice, the outside voice came in again:

"See you! When did I ever have a boyfriend for 20 years when I was single? The ghost has met several and chased me all the way!"

It was very irritable outside, and the voice was accompanied by a bit of crying: "I can beg you to act quickly, now there is black fog outside, and if they catch up, I will die!"

"...This is Zhang You, it's Zhang You right!"

Guo Guo was both excited and nervous, Zheng Wanqing was even more impulsive and wanted to open the door directly, but Tang Xinjue blocked it with a long tool in his hand and blocked it back.

Zheng Wanqing was in a hurry this time, and spoke loudly to Tang Xinjue for the first time: "You also said that it was Zhang You outside, why didn't you let the door open? What should I do if it's too late?"

Tang Xinjue deliberately ignored the labor pains in his temples, and spoke very fast: "You forgot what the pattern was just now? There will be a ghost knock on the door every half an hour, no exception. It means that it has always been at our door."

"So, if it's Zhen Zhangyou standing outside the door this time, then where is the original [ghost]?"

Tang Xinjue didn't lower her voice, it could be heard inside and outside the bedroom, the air was instantly filled with silence, and even knocking on the door stopped.

After a while, Zhang You's voice trembled: "Damn, don't scare me, people will die if they are scared—"

As if finding something, the sound stopped abruptly.

After a few seconds, Zhang You said with difficulty: "I feel it, as if something... is lying on my back."

Guo Guo gasped for breath and softened silently. Zheng Wanqing tucked her collar to prevent it to the end, hesitantly looked at Tang Xinjue: "Then do we still have to open the door?"

Guo Guo was about to collapse: "What do you think?"

Now that they open the door, Zhang You is not the only one who comes in!

"Can we wait until the next time the rules are announced?" She suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Heart, you said that every time that terrifying child's voice sounds, the ghost outside the door will refresh once."

When the ghost is not around, they open the door for Zhang You, isn't it safe?

Tang Xinjue denied it without hesitation: "The next time Tongyin appears, it will be at 12 o'clock."

At 12:00, the game starts, and everyone who has not returned to the dormitory will be obliterated. Who can guarantee that at that moment, they will open the door faster, or Zhang You will be obliterated faster?

The atmosphere returned to the anxious starting point, and several people were silent. Guo Guo couldn't help but start wiping her tears: "Is there no way... uu..."

Zheng Wanqing drank her: "Don't cry! What's the use of crying now!"

Zhang You patted the door even more irritably: "Zheng Wanqing, you are not allowed to scold Guo Guo, I'm dying, what's the use of shouting!!"

Guo Guo cried and broke the jar: "Open the door, I want to fight that ghost to the death! Everyone die together!"

...

After a screeching roar, Tang Xinjue's unusually calm voice was particularly sobering in the air.

"Who said you would die?" w, keep in mind:,
