After thinking for a moment, Mu Rufeng wrapped the bandages around himself.
Though they smelled a little foul, they could at least serve as clothes for Mu Rufeng.
The bandages seemed to be alive and had already acknowledged Mu Rufeng as their master.
The moment Mu Rufeng got his hands on them, the bandages unfurled on their own before winding around his body.
This time, they did not wrap up his entire body. Instead, following Mu Rufeng's wishes, they covered his bare upper body and formed a bandage T-shirt.
The bandage T-shirt felt quite cool to wear, though since it was made of bandages, it looked rather strange.
Suddenly, Mu Rufeng's nose twitched as a rich smell of grease flooded into his nostrils.
The smell was familiar. Mu Rufeng immediately remembered—it was the scent of the Dorm Manager's Secret Recipe Candle.
Strictly speaking, it should have been the scent on the Dorm Manager herself.
The two smelled exactly the same.
Mu Rufeng was certain that the smell was not coming from the candle he had placed at his bedside, but from outside the door.
"Has the Dorm Manager come?" Mu Rufeng listened closely, but he could not hear the slightest movement outside.
Bang! A tremendous knock sounded.
Mu Rufeng remained perfectly still, though a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
He truly had not heard anyone walking outside the door, yet there came a knock.
Bang bang bang! Three more knocks followed.
Mu Rufeng still did not move.
Bang bang bang!
The person outside increased the force of the knocking.
A voice came from outside. "Open the door, dorm inspection!"
Mu Rufeng recognized it as the Dorm Manager's voice.
He remained seated at the bedside without giving any response.
He took out his phone and checked the time. It was ten minutes past midnight.
It had to be said that ever since he had installed the Oddity World SIM card, his phone battery had gone straight from 30% to a full MAX charge!
Even after all this time, it was still at MAX.
Bang bang bang!
"Open the door. I know someone's inside. Open up, now. Dorm inspection." The Dorm Manager knocked even harder.
The Dorm Manager knocked several more times. When she found that no one inside responded, she left.
Though she departed without making a sound, the fading of that rich greasy smell proved that the Dorm Manager had truly left.
Mu Rufeng lay back down on the bed, intending to continue sleeping.
From seven o'clock until now, he had only slept five hours. He was still very tired.
However, just as he lay down, his nose twitched several more times.
"It's coming from beneath the bed."
Mu Rufeng immediately got up, climbed down from his bed, and walked over to the bed opposite his.
This was where Bandage Miss had slept earlier.
Mu Rufeng bent down and looked beneath the bed.
Sure enough, there was a figure underneath.
The stench of rotting corpses he had smelled was coming from that figure.
Bandage Miss was not from Room 301, so this oddity was most likely the owner of this bed.
Mu Rufeng reached out, grabbed it, and yanked with force, dragging it straight out from beneath the bed.
It was a very bizarre fellow.
Its head was as large as an ox's, yet its body was extremely small and hunched over.
Besides the stench of a corpse, it also carried a faint burnt smell.
Even after Mu Rufeng dragged it out, the thing did not react at all.
It had clearly been taught a lesson by Bandage Miss and had yet to wake up.
"It smells a little foul, but I can accept it."
Mu Rufeng wiped Big Head Ghost's neck with his hand. His fangs flipped outward, and he immediately bit down on its neck.
An indescribable taste filled Mu Rufeng's mouth.
How was this blood? It was practically corpse water.
Mu Rufeng released his bite and spat out a huge mouthful of corpse water.
Though there was nothing wrong with Mu Rufeng's sense of taste, swallowing corpse water raw was still hard for him to accept.
He picked up the Scarlet Eyeball, took a sip, and rinsed his mouth. Only then did that feeling in his heart fade away.
Mu Rufeng wiped his mouth, stepped forward, and bit Big Head Ghost's neck once more.
This time, Mu Rufeng had experience. He drank only the blood and did not touch the corpse water at all.
In just a few breaths, Big Head Ghost's body began to shrivel, slowly becoming hunched and twisted.
Even that enormous head gradually shrank to the size of a normal person's, while its body had already become that of a child.
Whoosh! Mu Rufeng tossed down Big Head Ghost's body and let out a long breath.
At that moment, Mu Rufeng felt like an old smoker who had quit for a month and then taken a drag from a premium cigarette.
"I've gotten stronger again." Mu Rufeng swung his fist and felt the power within himself.
Big Head Ghost was dead, but its corpse had not disappeared.
Mu Rufeng thought for a moment, then picked up Big Head Ghost's corpse.
He walked straight to the balcony door.
Reaching out, he pulled the door open and stepped onto the balcony.
Outside was not pitch-black. Instead, a blood-colored full moon hung in the empty sky.
The crimson moonlight poured down, dyeing Mu Rufeng's body red as well.
Mu Rufeng raised his hand and tossed Big Head Ghost's corpse down from the balcony.
He had originally intended to continue sleeping, but now he suddenly did not want to sleep anymore.
For some reason, Mu Rufeng felt as though the bloodthirst within his heart had been stirred awake.
Mu Rufeng guessed it was because of the blood moon, but he did not think it was a bad thing. Instead, he licked his lips in excitement.
There are so many oddities in this building. If I drained them all dry, just how strong could I become?
Mu Rufeng had always possessed a bloodthirsty nature. He had successively fed on two oddities, and now the blood moon had ignited the bloodthirst hidden in his heart.
At this moment, he was swelling with confidence.
Even after Mu Rufeng returned to the room, no longer under the blood moon's rays, he remained in that bloodthirsty state.
Mu Rufeng liked this state very much as well.
After returning to the room, Mu Rufeng began searching around, especially near the beds.
Unfortunately, Mu Rufeng did not find anything good.
He only found thirty yuan beneath Big Head Ghost's mattress.
He did not even see a phone from Oddity World.
Did Big Head Ghost not have a phone?
Crack!
Mu Rufeng pulled open the door to Room 301.
By coincidence, the door to Room 302 opposite opened at the same time.
It was an oddity with an extremely thin and small body.
Its entire face had only one eye and a mouth left on it.
The mouth occupied two-thirds of its face, making it look exceptionally horrifying.
When Big Mouth Ghost saw Mu Rufeng open the door, it was first stunned, then overjoyed.
Honestly, Big Mouth Ghost had never expected that after knocking on so many doors without receiving a response, someone would actually open the door on their own.
