Chapter 38: Empty Chairs

Looking at the content on the mobile phone screen, Bai Qi'an couldn't help but swallow nervously. His heart had long since hung in the air, for he had seen the horror of the eternal night with his own eyes. However, his nervousness at the moment is because of the sentence "You still have hope of being rescued".

Is there any hope? What kind of hope is it? Who can help us?

He continued reading.

"You might think we're alarmist, or grandstanding. It doesn't matter, whatever your reaction is, it's expected. To be honest, we don't care. All we care about is the balance between this world and that world.

Oh, by the way, don't worry too much about the hopes I just mentioned, because even if you do, you can't do anything. What I call 'that world' you can't enter at all. Someone who is smart enough should have guessed what the so-called 'that world' is, so I won't say any more.

Also, there is such a thing as 'hope', which is illusory. If hope is dashed, it is reasonable that humanity will really go extinct.

Finally, I would like to tell you that in the last few days of your life, let go of your worries, enjoy the present, and don't leave yourself with regrets. ”

That's the end of the post. Looking at these words, Bai Qi'an was dumbfounded.

That's it? That's it? What is that hope?

His eyes rolled unconsciously as he tried to read between the lines.

He didn't understand how such a post looked like a deliberate sellout, or simply a prank. On the Internet, there are countless such so-called prophecy posts.

But why is there only this one that has been refined and put to the top, and there are so many comments?

"Mr. and Mrs. Roche ......"

Bai Qi'an muttered silently, entered these four words into the search bar, and began to search.

Soon, information about the mysterious couple appeared on the screen.

He was about to take a closer look, when Zhong Zhenmian next to him suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's here, the squad leader's bedroom." Let's go, let's go in. ”

"Oh, oh......"

Bai Qi'an was a little flustered, hurriedly put away his mobile phone, and walked into the door of room 205 with Zhong Zhenmian.

Surprisingly, the squad leader was the only one in the dormitory, and he sat facing the door, as if waiting for them to arrive.

"Squad leader, you are ......"

Bai Qi'an said puzzled.

"I've heard," the squad leader looked into Bai Qi'an's eyes with a solemn face, "a prophecy about the end of the world." I guessed that you came today to persuade me to cancel this mountaineering and sunrise activity, right? ”

"That's right! Squad leader, now that you know the news, don't be stubborn any longer. Without sunrise to see, the sun will not rise again, human ...... Humanity is really going extinct! ”

"Do you really believe it?"

The squad leader did not directly agree or refuse, but asked Bai Qi'an a question.

"Of course I do!"

Bai Qi'an immediately said loudly, as if he was afraid that the squad leader would not believe it.

"Why? Haven't you always scoffed at this kind of thing? ”

The squad leader continued to ask.

"It's simple, because I witnessed the moment when the sun didn't rise. Yes, I went from the future to the present, I don't know how it was, but I turned back in time. You have to trust me, you have to cancel this event or everyone will die! ”

"Hehe," the squad leader suddenly smiled, and that smile looked a little chilly, "How do you know that time has turned back?" ”

"That must have been reversed! Do you know? The sun didn't rise, all the appliances stopped working, and even the phone couldn't be used. Now that the lights are so bright, it must have turned back time. ”

"Who told you there were lights here?"

The cold smile on the squad leader's face did not diminish in the slightest, and his grin widened. This smile was extremely weird, and it made Bai Qi'an's heart furious.

"Ban...... Squad leader, what are you...... What is it...... Meaning? ”

Bai Qi'an stammered and asked, and at the same time raised his head, wanting to see the electric light overhead.

However, before he could lift his head completely, a question occurred to him.

What about Zhong Zhenmian? Where did it go? Didn't he come into this dormitory with me? No, wait, the squad leader just now seems to be saying "you come today", not "you come today", what's going on? Didn't Zhong Zhenmian come in?

With a mess in his mind, Bai Qi'an's head stopped lifting and turned back, wanting to see if Zhong Zhenmian was behind him or had already left.

"I advise you not to look back."

The squad leader's voice suddenly sounded.

Bai Qi'an subconsciously wanted to ask "why", but his words were held in his throat.

The voice......

The squad leader had been talking to him just now, and his voice was normal just now, but now it had completely changed, it had become hoarse, it had become cold, and it was as chilling as the hissing of a snake.

He froze in place, his gaze falling on the void air, neither looking at the ceiling nor at Zhong Zhenmian behind him.

Suddenly, his head ached violently. He suddenly forgot everything, covered his head with his hands, and wailed in pain.

However, his mind became clearer, and he gradually remembered something.

Zhong Zhenmian...... Zhong Zhen...... What's going on? Bell...... No, who was following me just now? He...... Does it exist? There is no one surnamed Zhong in our dormitory!

"Who is it! Who was it just now! ”

He roared like a mad beast.

"Hey, hey, hey, ......"

A burst of mad laughter came from the squad leader's position.

It was at this moment that Bai Qi'an suddenly remembered that the squad leader's bedroom was not in room 205 at all. Room 205 has been an empty dormitory since a mysterious accident a few years ago, in which all four students died.

Why? What the hell is going on? Who was it just now? Why did he bring me here? That man...... Is it a squad leader? Wait, the lights ...... What lights?

Bai Qi'an felt that his brain was about to explode, and the severe pain was almost killing him.

"Ahhh!!hhh

I don't know if it was because of pain or fear, Bai Qi'an roared wildly.

With this roar, he jerked his head up and looked ahead.

A chair stood in front of him, and there was no one on it.

The feeling of headache disappeared suddenly, and Bai Qi'an stood up straight a little dazedly, looking at the empty chair in a daze.

Empty chairs. An extremely worn, dusty empty chair.

I saw the squad leader sitting on it just now, how could it be full of dust? If someone had just sat there, there would have been traces here, right?

Bai Qi'an slowly raised his head, wanting to see the electric light overhead.
