After thinking for a moment, Mu Rufeng wrapped the bandages around himself.
Although they were a bit smelly, they could at least serve as clothes for Mu Rufeng.
The bandages seemed to be alive and had already recognized Mu Rufeng as their master.
As soon as Mu Rufeng started to use them, the bandages unraveled and immediately wrapped around him.
This time, they didn't cover his entire body. Instead, following Mu Rufeng's thoughts, they wrapped his bare upper body, forming a short-sleeved shirt out of bandages.
Wearing the bandage short-sleeved shirt felt quite cool, but because they were bandages, it looked a bit strange.
Suddenly, Mu Rufeng's nose twitched. A strong smell of oil rushed into his nostrils.
This oily smell was very familiar. Mu Rufeng immediately recognized it. Wasn't this the smell of the Dorm Manager's Secret Recipe Candle?
Strictly speaking, this should be the smell emanating from the Dorm Manager herself.
The smell was exactly the same.
Mu Rufeng was certain that this smell wasn't coming from the candle he had placed by his bedside, but from outside the door.
"Is the Dorm Manager here?" Mu Rufeng tilted his ear to listen, but he couldn't hear any movement from outside.
"Bang!" A loud noise.
Mu Rufeng didn't move at all, but a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He truly hadn't heard anyone walking outside the door, yet there was a knocking sound.
"Knock, knock, knock!" Three more knocks.
Mu Rufeng still didn't move.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The person outside the door increased the force of their knocking.
A voice came from outside the door: "Open the door, we're inspecting the dorms!"
Mu Rufeng recognized the voice. It was the Dorm Manager.
He remained seated by his bed, offering no response.
He took out his phone and checked the time. It was just past twelve o'clock midnight.
He had to admit, ever since he installed the phone card from the world of oddities, his phone's battery had gone from 30% directly to MAX full charge!
And after so much time had passed, it was still at MAX full charge.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
"Open the door, I know someone's inside, hurry up and open it, we're inspecting the dorms." The Dorm Manager's knocking grew even louder.
The Dorm Manager knocked a few more times, and finding no response from inside, she left.
Although she left without a sound, the strong oily smell dissipated, proving that the Dorm Manager had indeed gone.
Mu Rufeng lay back down on his bed, intending to go back to sleep.
He had slept from seven o'clock until now, which was only five hours. He was still very sleepy.
However, as soon as he lay down, his nose twitched a few more times.
"It's coming from under the bed."
Mu Rufeng immediately got up, got out of bed, and then walked over to the bed opposite him.
This bed was where Bandage Miss had slept before.
Mu Rufeng bent down and looked under the bed.
As expected, there was a figure underneath.
The smell of corpse he had detected was emanating from this 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 with a sudden pull, yanked it out from under the bed.
It was a very strange fellow.
Its head was as large as an ox, but its body was extremely small and hunched.
Besides the smell of corpse, there was also a burnt odor.
Even after Mu Rufeng pulled it out, the fellow didn't react.
It was clearly taught a lesson by Bandage Miss and hadn't woken up yet.
"It's a bit smelly, but I can tolerate it."
Mu Rufeng wiped the Big Head Ghost's neck with his hand. Its fangs protruded, and he immediately bit down on its neck.
A taste that was indescribable filled Mu Rufeng's mouth.
This wasn't blood at all; it was pure corpse water.
Mu Rufeng released his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of corpse water.
Although Mu Rufeng's sense of taste found nothing amiss, he still found the idea of swallowing raw corpse water difficult to accept.
After picking up the Scarlet Eyeball and taking a sip to rinse his mouth, the feeling in Mu Rufeng's heart finally subsided.
Mu Rufeng wiped his mouth, stepped forward, and bit into the Big Head Ghost's neck once more.
This time, Mu Rufeng had the experience. He only consumed the blood, completely avoiding the corpse water.
In just a few breaths, the Big Head Ghost's body began to shrink, gradually becoming hunched and twisted.
Even the large head gradually returned to normal human size, while the body had already taken on the appearance of a child.
"Hoo!" Mu Rufeng dropped the Big Head Ghost's body and let out a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, Mu Rufeng felt like a chain smoker who hadn't smoked for a month finally taking a drag of a premium cigarette.
"I'm stronger again." Mu Rufeng clenched his fists, feeling his own power.
The Big Head Ghost was dead, but its corpse had not vanished.
Mu Rufeng pondered for a moment, then picked up the Big Head Ghost's body.
He walked directly to the balcony door.
Reaching out, he yanked the door open and stepped onto the balcony.
Outside, it wasn't pitch black. Instead, a blood-red moon hung in the void.
The crimson moonlight spilled down, dyeing Mu Rufeng's body red as well.
Mu Rufeng raised his hand and tossed the Big Head Ghost's body off the balcony.
He had intended to go back to sleep, but suddenly he didn't feel like it anymore.
For some reason, Mu Rufeng felt that the bloodthirsty urge within him had been stirred.
Mu Rufeng guessed it was due to the blood moon, but he didn't feel bad about it at all. Instead, he licked his lips with a hint of excitement.
"There are so many Oddities in this building. If I absorbed them all, how strong would I become?" Mu Rufeng thought to himself.
Mu Rufeng already possessed a bloodthirsty attribute. After absorbing two Oddities, he was now further ignited by the blood moon, which had amplified his inner bloodlust.
At this moment, he was feeling emboldened.
Even after returning to his room and being out of the blood moon's light, Mu Rufeng maintained his bloodthirsty state.
Mu Rufeng also quite liked this current state.
Back in his room, Mu Rufeng began searching the interior, particularly around the beds.
Unfortunately, Mu Rufeng didn't find anything of value.
He only found thirty yuan under the Big Head Ghost's mattress.
He didn't even find a mobile phone from the Oddity world.
Did this Big Head Ghost not have a phone?
"Creak!" A sound echoed.
Mu Rufeng pulled open the door to Room 301.
Coincidentally, the door to Room 302, directly opposite, also opened at the same time.
It was an extremely emaciated Oddity.
Its entire face consisted of only one eye and a mouth.
The mouth occupied two-thirds of the face, making it look incredibly terrifying.
The Big Mouth Ghost was initially stunned when it saw Mu Rufeng open the door, then it rejoiced.
Honestly, the Big Mouth Ghost couldn't believe how many times it had knocked on the door without a response.
And now, it had actually opened the door itself?
