Volume 3 The Strange Tales of the Women's Court Chapter 40 The Midnight Piano (4 times)
"Are you the one who participates in the game?" She was surprised and asked, "Why do you have to ask everything?" β
"It's my first time participating, so of course I have to ask!" I quickly smiled.
"You can't ask any of that!" She pulled the note out of my hand, "However, I can tell you that tomorrow's notice was conveyed by Mei Xiaolin from your Class 92 Class 2." If you want to know if you've been selected tomorrow, just ask her! β
It's her again!
I chuckled inwardly, "Is she the organization of the game?" β
"We're just the ones who participate, who knows everything?" She shook her head and looked me up and down, "You're so weird, what are you going to do?" You can't think of the dean to report us, right? β
"No, no! I...... Just curious! I shook my hand again and again.
"I think this suspenseful game is indeed suitable for curious people like you!" She smiled and patted me, "I won't tell you, I'm going to get ready for tonight." β
She hummed the song and walked away.
I stayed for a while, with a heavy heart. The first step of the plan failed, and it seems that tonight will not go well!
As midnight approached, I slipped out of my dorm room and into the organ room.
The sound of the piano came intermittently from Organ Room 13. Today, the old cafeteria met the senior sister who has come.
I looked at my watch. Ten minutes to go until 11 o'clock. Nothing to do left or right. I chose a random organ room to go into. Find out first. Look at the "baby".
In the swarthy space. The senses of the human ground will become sharpened. One in. I just feel it. The wall behind the organ seemed to tremble. I turned on my flashlight. The walls are more mottled than before. The paint peeled off a lot. It wasn't the expected black mark of the Middle Earth.
Frankly. Deep in my heart. I had that weird black mark on the wall of Organ Room 13. It's very scary. Something appears out of thin air. It is more likely to be a scourge than a blessed land.
The only thing that can still comfort oneself is. The Soul Splitting Bead has not responded. So. At least not a goblin.
But. Yun Tengjiao and Tao Tao still remained in the academy. It's puzzling. The rat monster has been removed. The five-colored beads also fell into their hands. Why haven't they left yet? I don't think they mean me when they say they can't leave. Reluctant? See their big-headed ghosts! Unless they let Ray make him stupid. Otherwise. It only shows that they still have a plan!
What's in the picture?
There was a sudden and inexplicable tremor on the ground.
I was startled and woke up from my contemplation.
The sound of the piano is gone, and that senior sister should start the game.
God, what's going on lately? Always stupid and slow to react, how can it be like Alzheimer's? I patted my head and cautiously peeked out.
There was no one on the trail, and there was no sound of footsteps.
I jumped at the chance. With a turned off flashlight, he jumped to the other side of the road in a few steps and hid in the corner of the old cafeteria.
I'm going to wait for that senior sister to choose a good place. Just quietly passed.
I waited a long time. The whole organ room was as quiet as a wasteland.
There was not a light or a sound.
That's not right! That senior sister didn't say to choose an organ room. Did you go in and find the "baby"? If you want to find it, you have to use a flashlight to find it, and besides, she should always have some voice out!
I don't care if I'll be scolded. stepped on the grass and came out and asked loudly, "Senior sister." Are you there? Where are you? Which organ room did you go into? β
My voice swirled, but no one answered me.
I turned on the flashlight and looked for it one by one, each one of which was much more messy than it had been a few days ago, with the lid open, the chair crooked, and some miscellaneous items such as newspapers, iron bars, and plastic water bottles left in the corner.
It is estimated that it was thrown here by the people who participated in the game in front of it.
But the chaotic scene upset me even more.
No. 1O, No. 11, No. 12......
I was at the door of the 13th, hesitated a little before pushing the door open.
There was no blood or corpse on the floor, there was a book on the organ, the chairs were neatly arranged, a thick sweater was on the back of the chair, and there was no extra clutter.
"Senior sister! Senpai! Are you absent? I asked aloud with a flashlight in my chin and pulling back the plank behind the wall.
As soon as the plank was pulled open, my flashlight snapped and fell to the ground.
Behind is a whole wall!
I touched it and pushed it a few more times, making sure it was solid.
Or is it not number 13 here? I picked up my flashlight, retreated to the door, and shone it out.
Across the barren grass is the faΓ§ade of the old canteen. On the right is the withered tree, and behind it is the higher college wall.
I turned my flashlight and shone it on the wall facing the organ.
A circular mark clearly appears in the flashlight. It was clearer than before, and there was an extra twisted mark in the middle, like a crack.
The ghostly light of the Earth Splitting Soul Bead on my wrist suddenly tightened, causing a sharp pain in my injured right hand!
I gritted my teeth, not knowing whether to scream twice to vent my anger.
"Anyone? Ghosts can also do it, there is a kind of coming out to speak! I said out loud.
The answer to me is the sound of hunting!
Suddenly the wind rose. The wild grass flies, and the whistling and strange wind is like a raging killing machine, cutting people's nerves.
I strode out the door, facing the wind, waiting.
The wind was cold, but I didn't flinch. I don't know, but what else can I do now?
Under the cover of the wind, the dead trees by the wall slowly cracked and fell to both sides.
The color of the round mark on the wall of No. 13 changed suddenly, and the twisted mark in the middle split it in two, half as black as ink, half as white as snow, and a red dot appeared on each side of the symmetry, and the brilliant light immediately shot through the wooden door and shot at me, who was turning my head.
The Soul Splitting Orb flew up from my wrist with a sneering sound. It turned into a curtain of light that covered me.
The wind was stronger, and there was a pair of cold eyes staring at me without blinking from behind the dead tree.
The red light suddenly disappeared at this time, like a hail with the momentum of thunder, which suddenly turned into air! I took a step back in surprise, and the Soul Breaker lingered in front of me, refusing to return to my wrist
There were a few more shaky shakes under his feet. A ring-shaped image oozes from the wooden door.
The Soul Splitting Bead spun in the air, seemingly uneasy.
The image slowly reveals its true face, a black and white circle, split in half by a twisted crack in the middle.
Hey, isn't this a Tai Chi pattern?
I was amazed, when did even the demons and monsters use the Tai Chi pattern as a symbol? Is it a youkai of faith?
This Tai Chi pattern began to rotate in mid-air, and the faster it turned, the black and white colors came overwhelmingly.
I just felt that the world was spinning, and the earth cracking soul beads in front of me were blurred. I struggled to get back. Hurriedly reciting the formula, the light of the Soul Splitting Bead skyrocketed, and it forcibly tore apart the boundless black and white colors that enveloped me.
I'm much more conscious, all right! Anyway, this place is remote and uninhabited, and I'm not afraid of turning into charred rubble, so let me use that red-scaled dragon with huge destructive power!
I raised my right hand, and the burn on my palm began to turn red. Just as I was about to unlock the seal of Chang Dao Chang, a cold wind hit the back of my head, and my head hurt sharply as if it were cracked, and the voices in my ears seemed to be very far away. I tried to turn around. A vague, unfamiliar figure held something and waved it at me again.
Finished! I tried to run away, but my hands and feet wouldn't listen. Fall to the ground.
The cold ground is as cold as the temperature of death. I thought desperately, I didn't even know who was plotting against me. It's really wronged!
A pair of cold hands hugged me, and the last bit of clarity in my heart. I vaguely heard a voice scolding in a low voice: "Stupid woman! β
Somehow I breathed a sigh of relief and was immediately overwhelmed by the darkness!
By the time I had to wait almost to breastfeed, I finally opened my eyes. In front of him was Ge Hong's extremely worried face.
"Ge Hong? You...... How do I? "I wanted to sit up, and when I moved, my head hurt so much that Venus was in front of me.
"Woman, you don't sleep in a good bed, why do you want to sleep on the concrete floor?" Gao Yanlan came over.
"I ...... What's wrong? "The images were rolling in my head, and I couldn't remember what had happened before.
"You didn't sleep honestly, rolled to the ground, tripped over a chair, knocked you unconscious!" Min Yu sighed, "Scared the hell out of us!" β
"Yes! How are you? Should I go to the hospital for a check-up? Hu Xia also leaned over and asked worriedly.
Go to bed? Falling out of bed? Tripping over a chair? I looked at them in amazement.
"I think, it's better to go to the hospital to compare insurance!" Zhang Qi observed my expression, "Look at her, she is stunned, don't crash into a concussion!" β
"Shen Jun, you ...... You okay? Don't scare us! Ge Hong grabbed my hand and shook it.
"Ouch! Let it go! I cried out, "That's my right hand, do you want me to put a cast again?" β
Ge Hong was so frightened that he hurriedly let go: "Oh no! Oops! It doesn't matter, right? β
"Good thing you're relieved!" I grinned in pain, but still smiled and said, "Otherwise, I'm really going to the hospital again!" β
"Still laughing? Please, look in the mirror and smile worse than cry! Zhang Qi shook his head and sighed.
ββ¦β¦ It's okay! Luckily, I hit the chair, and if I hit the concrete floor, I would have a concussion! "I rubbed my head, and there was a big swollen lump, it was so bad!
"Are you really okay?" Everyone asked uneasily.
"It's okay! Wake you up, go to sleep! Classes are still going to be held tomorrow! I tried to keep my tone as relaxed as possible.
"That'...... Sleep! I'll wake up tomorrow and see if there are any after-effects! Ge Hong helped me lie down.
Then they went back to their beds and went back to sleep.
"Ge Hong, go to sleep too!" I smiled at her.
"You were so careless!" Her tone was strange, as if she was blaming me.
"I ...... Will be careful later! I assured with a wry smile.
"Later? It's better not to have a future! She looked deeply at me and whispered in my ear, "Remember today's pain, and all the ...... before Lose! β
I was startled, grabbed her and whispered, "What do you mean?" β
"Nope. I'm afraid of you...... Fall out of bed again! She shook my hand away and smiled casually, but her eyes were red.
I don't know what to say.
She returned to her bed, and the two of us, with different thoughts, silently waited for the dawn to come.
