"Wouldn't that be better? No one will rush in and disturb us then. I think none of you have any objections to sleeping in the classroom tonight, right?"
Several people, none of whom they knew, shook their heads in unison.
Han Ran had no choice but to shut her mouth. She understood that everyone in this room was a bunch of lunatics.
“It seems we are reliving that night.” Wei Jin spoke up at this moment: “Perfect timing, we are about to find out what really happened that night.”
After Wei Jin finished speaking in a voice that only they could hear, he felt someone staring at him.
When he looked up, he was met with the president's eerie smile.
Wei Jin felt a little uncomfortable, which made him quickly turn his head to the side.
“Since everyone agrees,” the club president smiled and spread his arms wide, “let’s get straight to tonight’s main event! Everyone, please write down your favorite ghost story on a piece of paper, and try to keep it concise!”
The president then handed them the white slips of paper they had already submitted.
As Ye Bugui pondered what story he should make up, he didn't expect that the moment he picked up the note, a line of text would appear on the originally blank note.
In that instant, Ye Bugui's expression changed.
Do they intend to inherit the fate of the dead?
Just as Ye Bugui was deep in thought, the club president spoke again.
However, what he said this time chilled the hearts of all four people present.
"Everyone, once you've finished writing your ghost stories, I'll collect all your notes."
"Next, we'll play a fun game where you can draw lots from me. You must complete the ritual for the ghost story you draw."
"How about it? Isn't it interesting? Maybe all of us here today will have a chance to see ghosts and monsters!"
Han Ran's fists hardened; this club president was definitely up to something!
Although she had forgotten the contents of the newspaper she had read, she still remembered the things her classmates had said to her when they chatted.
The company president was the only survivor.
He must be faking his madness; this must all be part of his plan!
Han Ran turned around and saw the same thoughts in the eyes of his teammates.
However, a problem has arisen in their path: how should they break this deadlock?
Especially now that their key man Lu Shi is gone, can they still break the deadlock with brute force?
Ye Bugui, on the other hand, seemed so calm and collected.
Ye Bugui was thinking of Lu Shi. If Lu Shi were here, what would he do?
...
When Lu Shi woke up, he found himself lying on a large, empty, and soft bed.
"You're finally awake." Lu Shi opened his eyes and saw a man wearing glasses with a gentle expression standing by the bed.
Lu Shi knew that he absolutely did not recognize the person in front of him.
He was wearing a striped blue long coat.
Unfortunately, Lu Shi was unaware of the rules of this world, and even less aware that the clothes the other person was wearing represented his other identity: a mental patient.
That's right. When Lu Shi woke up, he was first taken to a mental hospital, and then sent to a hospital bed.
"How did I get here?"
Lu Shi frowned. He was clearly reading the newspaper, and he was clearly preparing to find the Ghost Stories Society and deal with that potential enemy.
Lu Shi never expected that he would suddenly fall into a deep sleep.
When he woke up, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar environment.
Moreover... Lu Shi turned his head and gave a cold look at the man standing in front of his bed, pretending to be very kind.
Something's not right. Unprovoked kindness might exist in the real world, but it would never appear in a dungeon.
"Everyone asks this question when they wake up."
The patient was smiling happily; he even turned around and started fiddling with the flowers he had placed on the windowsill.
Sunlight streamed through the curtains, spilling across the floor.
Such beautiful visuals don't look like a dungeon at all.
But Lu Shi had already experienced the Dream Come True Group, so he knew that everything in the dungeon might be fake.
But he didn't intend to expose all of this immediately. He wanted to see what this seemingly kind person was really up to.
"Is that so? Then should I be here?" Lu Shi asked calmly.
"Since you've asked, then it's only right that I ask." The patient smiled, a smile that was very comforting.
"The doctor said that we are not sick until we realize that we are really sick."
"Is there something wrong with that statement?" Lu Shi countered.
"Of course, but what can we say to refute what the doctors say? Otherwise, why are they doctors and we are just patients?"
The patient chuckled, then suddenly squatted down and pulled a box out from under the bed:
"Will you play a game with me?"
A note from the author:
Thank you so much for your support! I will continue to work hard!

"good."
Lu Shi agreed without hesitation. He looked at the box the other person was holding and was very curious to know what was inside.
The patient chuckled and first placed his hand on the box, then patted it a few times forcefully.
Lu Shi was somewhat confused, not understanding the other party's reason for doing so.
Are you trying to determine what's inside by the sound?
"Ah, it's still alive!"
But the patient's words still made Lu Shi's nerves tense up instantly.
Alive? Doesn't that mean there's a living thing inside the box?
It couldn't possibly be just one person, could it?
However, in order not to arouse the suspicion of his fellow patients, Lu Shi pretended to be puzzled and asked:
"Is that your pet inside?"
Upon hearing this, the fellow patient laughed. He raised his hand and slapped the box hard, his behavior even making Lu Shi worry that he might faint from excitement.
"Pets? That's an interesting way to put it." The patient opposite him simply sat down on the floor, ready to applaud Lu Shi.
"Don't speak yet, let me open it, otherwise you'll scare it," the patient said cautiously.
When the patient opened the box, Lu Shi couldn't help but lean over for a look, seemingly very interested in the contents.
However, when Lu Shi saw what was inside the box, he couldn't help but frown.
If someone with poor mental fortitude were here, they probably would have vomited all over the place by now.
At first, he thought there was a dead person inside.
To think even more horrifyingly, there might be a human head inside.
But no one expected that when he opened the box, he would find a doll made up of various severed limbs.
"Look, isn't it cute?" The patient probably really thought so, because the way he looked at the "rag doll" was so gentle.
At this moment, Lu Shi, suppressing his discomfort, looked at the extremely ugly doll and finally couldn't help but ask:
Did you make this yourself?
Lu Shi initially thought that asking such a question might anger the other party.
Unexpectedly, his fellow patient was not only not upset, but also admitted it without hesitation, without any intention of hiding it.
"Of course, I made it myself. This head came from a very handsome boy. But I felt his nose wasn't straight enough, so I got someone else's."
"This mouth looks like it belongs to one of my classmates. Hmm, he talks too much, so I just borrowed his mouth."
The patients described the composition of the dolls one by one, and Lu Shi finally listened to them while suppressing his anger.
The result was not surprising at all; every part of its body came from nine different people.
He immediately thought of that horrific tragedy and the tragic ending where nine out of ten died and one went mad.
So Lu Shi stood up indifferently, looking down at his fellow patient:
"I'm not sure what to call you. I can't just call you a serial killer, can I?"
The patient burst into laughter, completely oblivious to the fear of having his true self exposed.
"That's so rude of you to expose my secret on the very first day we met."
The patient stretched and stood up reluctantly.
They stood facing each other, and Lu Shi finally made his move.
In any case, killing this person was definitely the right thing to do.
Just as the flames were about to fly towards his fellow patient, his body twisted in a way to dodge them, and then quickly returned to normal.
"Is that all?" The fellow patient looked at Lu Shi with a smile and said softly, "This shouldn't be your true strength, right?"
"Finally, you don't have to pretend anymore. You deliberately let me here?" Lu Shi said casually. His move just now wasn't intended to kill the other party. He was just testing him.
Just as he had predicted, this person was very strong.
It is even more powerful than the projection of the Black Tai Sui.
