The hallway was pitch black. The moment Yu Xing opened the window, she felt a gust of cold wind rush in.

He squeezed through the window, carefully closed it, and crouched down in the corner to listen intently. As expected, he heard a jumble of footsteps.

This is the junction of the 2nd and 3rd floors. There are at least three "people" moving around in the corridor. By the speed and weight of their footsteps, Yu Xing can tell that one of them is very fast and is running on the ground, another seems to be crawling, and the last one is as slow as an old man who is about to die.

He knew that Qu Xuanqing's dormitory was on the third floor, and at this moment he could already hear the "thump, thump, thump" sounds coming from the ceiling above him. It was probably something like zombies jumping forward. He had to admit that Qu Xuanqing had never mentioned the current state of the girls' dormitory to him, and he never expected that the girls' dormitory would be in such a chaotic scene at night.

In contrast, nightmares have a weaker impact on the girls' dormitory. The lingering ghostly figures seem to have little interest in this place, with only a few still trying to wait for their prey to open the door.

Yu Xing felt very curious. He walked up the stairs and saw a female figure standing straight in the middle of the corridor.

With his night vision, he could only see an outline and a general description of her clothing. The woman was some distance away, but she was too conspicuous, blocking the stairwell as if afraid that others wouldn't see her. Her long dress tightly hugged her body, blooming like petals below her knees, without any other folds; it was a very simple fishtail dress.

The way she stood there was like that of an opera singer standing on a stage, with her long hair covering her face and flowing down. Yu Xing stared at her for a long time but still couldn't tell whether the ghost was facing him directly.

If Yu Xing sensed three ghosts with different movement rhythms in the corridor, then this one was the stationary type.

It's a stationary type that you can't dodge no matter how skillfully you move.

He wanted to find Qu Xuanqing, but with such a ghost blocking his way, it would be difficult to achieve his original plan. He wondered if this ghost could still communicate...

"Has anyone seen my notebook?" Just as he was about to go up and strike up a conversation, a clear, crisp girl's voice rang out from the other end of the corridor.

The girl's voice was still loud, showing no sign of stopping. Yu Xing paused, moved aside to hide, and decided to observe the situation.

"Stop! Have you seen my homework?" Judging from the voice, the girl was gradually walking towards Yu Xing from the other end. It was unclear whether she was talking to other ghosts, but she would stop for a while after each question.

Soon, the owner of the voice appeared at the edge of Yu Xing's field of vision. The voice was completely different from the clear and sweet one, and he couldn't tell at first glance that it was a person.

The person appeared to be half-squatting, but upon closer inspection, it could be seen that she was actually walking on all fours like a cat. Her skeleton had undergone a huge transformation, with her hind legs shortened, her back and waist arched backward, and her hair tied into two braids, without covering her face.

If the body resembles a cat, then the face is even more bizarre, with two bulging eyes like insects, no nose, and a mouth that stretches all the way to the braid. It's hard to say whether it's more terrifying or disgusting, but it's definitely a form of mental pollution.

She took two slow steps, then suddenly leaped up and jumped to the side of the female figure standing in the middle of the corridor.

Yu Xing peeked out and secretly observed.

The braided ghost, whose height probably only reached slightly above the fishtail skirt ghost's knees, suddenly raised its forelimbs and pawed at the fishtail skirt ghost's front. As it opened its mouth to speak, half of its head bobbed up and down. "What are you doing here? Have you seen my homework?"

As it asked along the way, Yu Xing hadn't heard a response from anyone. Unexpectedly, the fishtail skirt ghost actually paid it a attention. Standing still, it let out a scream and shoved the braided ghost away forcefully, "Ah!!! Aren't you annoying? You've been asking about homework all night! You've asked me three times already! Get out of here! Get out of here!"

"Why are you so agitated? Did you take my homework and feel guilty?" The braided pigtail finally had a new line. It bared its teeth at the fishtail-skirted Female Ghost and pounced again, this time not with a simple shove, but with extremely fierce force. "Give me back my homework!"

"Get away from me, get away from me, you idiot!" The Female Ghost in the fishtail skirt was more composed than expected. She was almost pushed over, but she managed to steady herself at the last moment and didn't move an inch.

"You tore up your own notebook! Stop bothering me! I hate students like you with only a three-minute memory! You can't remember anything, what's the point of your notebook? You're doomed! You're doomed! Don't think that tearing up your notebook and pretending you can't find it is an excuse for not doing well in school, you trash! Trash!"

The Female Ghost in the fishtail skirt was clearly much more eloquent, her insults causing the woman with the braided hair to growl incessantly, but she was helpless, as the woman's Combat Power seemed to surpass that of the woman with the braided hair.

But she had more concerns. While tearing open the braided ghost's mouth, she still screamed, "This is the outfit I wore when I gave my speech as a student representative! Get out of here!"

Yu Xing watched the sudden battle in silence, feeling speechless.

"Hehehe..." Suddenly, a gloating laugh came from beside him. Yu Xing was not flustered. He slowly turned his head and saw a semi-transparent girl with a ponytail floating next to him.

"I love coming here because I can see something amazing every day. Don't you think it's interesting?" The girl with the semi-transparent ponytail had a very obvious smile on her face. She didn't open her mouth, but her voice clearly reached Yu Xing's ears.

This is a ghostly figure, part of a nightmare.

Since Yu Xing wasn't strictly pulled into the nightmare, it was as if there was a dimension between him and the girl. The ghostly figures he saw were all semi-transparent, and the ghostly figures couldn't touch him.

The two ghosts fighting in the corridor didn't seem to hear the girl's voice either, which suggests that among the ghosts, this girl must be very powerful.

"Look, one day this naughty little braided girl forgot to do her homework. As a student on the red armband, she wasn't afraid of being punished by school rules, but she was especially afraid of being disliked by the teachers." The girl with the ponytail circled Yu Xing a few times. "So she tore up her own notebook and lied that her roommate had torn it up. As it turned out, Director Gene was really angry that day, so her roommate didn't even have a chance to be punished or repent. She was killed by her!"

The girl with the ponytail didn't know why she had such a strong urge to confide in Yu Xing, a boy who had appeared in the girls' dormitory. She stopped spinning around, her transparent face close to Yu Xing's, and excitedly said, "But I! I told her that I had reported her! Oh ho~ I wasn't dead yet, and the Principal liked me so much, hehehe, so she was really scared and went crazy very quickly!"

"Serves her right! Serves her right! Hehehe... Let her harm others, let her kill my best friend!"

Yu Xing was just listening to the story and didn't care why these ghosts had become like this, but he didn't expect to suddenly hear a key word.

Principal?
