Chapter 15: The Attack

Since everyone figured out the clue of "don't look back", after the next day's exam, Qian Weiwei, Zhao Xiaoyang and Zhang Jingrui really left the examination room safely.

"Great! If it goes on like this, maybe I can really go back alive this time. In the hotel room, Cheng Chen said excitedly. Having said that, the other people all had a faint look of worry on their faces.

"I always felt that it wasn't that simple." Wu Ruomeng said with a frown. "Oh, don't worry about it yet, don't you see everyone is okay." Under Cheng Chen's persuasion, Duan Jingming was also a little shaken: "That's right, let's rest early tonight, tomorrow will be the last day." ”

"Hmm. Let's all go back to the house and rest, it's not too early. Miao Yi yawned, he hadn't slept much in the past few days, and kept the children safe at night. Seeing that it was already the last day, Bai Qi discussed it with him, and the two decided to take turns keeping vigil.

At two o'clock in the middle of the night, Bai Qi was still sitting alone on the sofa in the living room in a daze. If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely not be able to stand sitting in a dark room, but Bai Qi is different. This is his habit, he likes to think about things alone in the dead of night without any distractions.

At this time, all he remembered in his mind were the images of the previous students who were killed. He always felt that something was wrong, as if something important had been forgotten by him...... Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a slight movement behind him.

"It's me!" When the lights came on, Bai Qicai found that it was Zhang Jingrui who was up at night standing behind him. "Scared the hell out of me." Bai Qi said, stuffing the yellow talisman in his hand into his pocket: "I haven't slept so late." ”

"I woke up in the middle of the night when I was thirsty, and I got up and poured a glass of water to drink." Zhang Jingrui didn't expect that there were still people in the living room, and he was so frightened by Bai Qi that he suddenly felt sleepy. He simply took the water and sat down beside Bai Qi: "Did you hold the talisman just now?" ”

"Hmm." Bai Qi nodded: "You still know this?" ”

Zhang Jingrui smiled when he heard this: "I watched it on TV, and some old movies that exorcise ghosts have similar charms. By the way, are you all Taoists? I'm curious, do you have any cultivation or something like that, you can deal with ghosts with your bare hands? ”

His words made Bai Qi cry and laugh a little, these children have always regarded them as capable people, but they don't know that they are almost no different from ordinary people except for props.

Bai Qi shook his head: "No, in fact, we are not as powerful as you think. In the face of ghosts, we ourselves will be afraid, and we will also think about how to escape. So those companions of yours...... Sorry, we really tried our best. ”

"I understand." Zhang Jingrui nodded, his clear eyes were extremely transparent: "Actually, I know that you didn't tell us the truth. I don't know why you're trying so hard to protect us, but I still want to say thank you......"

Bai Qi was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the boy in front of him to be so smart. The affairs of space must not be revealed to others, even if they are plot characters. Therefore, he hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Forgive us for our hardships and not being able to tell you the truth. However, you just need to know that a few of us have no ill will towards you, and that's enough. ”

"Understood." Zhang Jingrui nodded, he glanced at Bai Qi, and then said, "Brother Bai, I just want to beg you for one thing." ”

"What's the matter?" Bai Qi asked.

"What if...... I mean if. Zhang Jingrui pursed his lips, and then seemed to have made up his mind: "If we are in danger, you must save Qian Weiwei first." ”

Bai Qi looked at his face, was stunned for about a second or two, and then rubbed Zhang Jingrui's head with a smile: "How mature I am when you are, it turns out that you are also a kid who has just started to fall in love." His words instantly made Zhang Jingrui's face red.

Afterwards, Bai Qi said: "Don't worry, I will definitely try my best to protect you." Okay, it's not early, you have an exam tomorrow morning, so go back and rest. ”

Zhang Jingrui nodded, picked up the glass on the coffee table, took a sip, and prepared to return to the bedroom. Bai Qimu saw him leave, and the whole person sat back on the sofa. Walking to the door, Zhang Jingrui suddenly remembered something, turned around and said, "Brother Bai, you should rest early, staying up late is not good for your health." ”

"Got it, go ahead." Bai Qi turned his head and responded with a smile.

Suddenly, he found that when Zhang Jingrui turned around, a black shadow appeared on the wall in front of him. And Zhang Jingrui just twisted his head to talk to himself, and didn't notice the scene in front of him.

"Jingrui! Don't look back! Bai Qi shouted, took out the yellow talisman from his pocket, and threw it in the direction of the black shadow. As the yellow talisman burned and emitted a blue-green fire, the black shadow behind Zhang Jingrui also disappeared without a trace.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, Zhang Jingrui was startled, and the glass in his hand also fell to the ground, shattering with a "bang".

"What's wrong? What's wrong? The others were startled by the sound outside and immediately ran out of the house.

"The ghost attacked me just now......" Zhang Jingrui said with a pale face: "If it weren't for Big Brother Bai's quick reaction......

"It's fine." Although he lost a talisman, he saved Zhang Jingrui, which was still very cost-effective for Bai Qi.

"I'm sorry...... I don't know what's going on, I didn't turn my head. Zhang Jingrui's face was full of self-reproach, he knew how precious this spell was to Bai Qi.

"You just said you didn't turn your head?" Bai Qi's attention was drawn to this sentence.

Zhang Jingrui nodded affirmatively and said, "I have always remembered the taboo you said, and when I greeted you just now, I also turned around as a person." He repeated the same gesture as before.

If what Zhang Jingrui said is true, then everyone's previous inferences still do not hold.

What did Zhang Jingrui do to trigger the ghost attack? Bai Qi looked up at the time, it was almost three o'clock.

He pinched his eyebrows tiredly, and said to the panicked crowd: "Everyone go and rest first, it should be safe for the time being." ”

Qian Weiwei nervously grabbed the corner of Wu Ruomeng's clothes, looking at Zhang Jingrui's eyes full of worry. And the latter just shook his head lightly, although Zhang Jingrui's heart was also very afraid, but he didn't want to show it in front of Qian Weiwei.

Zhao Xiaoyang even asked Miao to let the other party sleep in the same bed with him tonight. Miao Yi frowned, and wanted to refuse, but seeing Zhao Xiaoyang's pitiful expression, he suddenly remembered his son.

So his heart softened, nodded and agreed to Zhao Xiaoyang's request. "Bai Qi, then you ......" Miao suddenly thought of the vigil.

Bai Qi waved his hand disapprenously: "It's okay, I can't sleep anyway." Go and rest. ”

The other half, Duan Jingming silently cleaned up the glass slag on the ground, and made Bai Qi a cup of strong coffee by the way: "Hard work, Bai Qi." ”

"It's okay, you can go to sleep too." Bai Qi returned to the living room with the cup and turned off the light again. The moonlight outside the window sprinkled on the house, lining the teacups on the coffee table with snow white.

In the dark, Bai Qi held his chin and looked thoughtfully at the clock on the wall in a daze.
