Chapter 151: ss 13


    The corridor of the hostel building was not too long or not too short. Ji Jie was dragged by the student council members into an unnumbered bedroom. Different from the other bedrooms, this one was very spacious. The walls and floor were bloodred. It was filled with beds, and each bed was separated with mosquitos. Ji Jie went near the mosquito and tried to nce in. Students in uniformy on the beds. They were deeply asleep. Their skin loosened, and their faces were covered in wrinkles. Their skin was patchy with age spots. The whole room smelled like old people.


    Is this a student hostel or an old folks home? Ji Jie shivered.


    They are the bricks of foundation that form this school. Without their contribution, the current school rules wouldnt have existed. The student council member with the badge shoved Ji Jie. Move.


    Bricks? Are the school rules made using these dying people? Ji Jie noticed that every student had a thread made from shadows on their chests. The twisting threads all led to the same room.


    Is the ending of the threads the room where the school rules maker resides? He was about to take another towards it when he was stopped by the council members.


    Listen to your orders!


    Ji Jie was coaxed and dragged deeper into the bedroom. He saw with his own eyes how the students lining outside were pushed onto the beds. The dying students on the bed would pull the thread out of their chests and plug it into the new students eyes. After that, the new students would end their state of sleepwalking and be new student council members.


    The student council members probably havent changed over the years. They have merely used this method to transfer their consciousness into different students and control their bodies! Ji Jie was not dumb at all. He was merely a little bitzy and liked to show off.


    President, the chaos at Building 6 tonight probably has to do with him. A few student council members led Ji Jie deep into the bedroom. The beds here had been cleared away to form a simple conference room.


    Bloodred cupboards lined the back wall. The meeting table in the middle was pieced together using different ssroom tables. Each table had some bloodred ballot papers in them. Five students in red uniforms sat around the meeting table. About ten more student council members stood behind each of the five students. Ji Jie, who lost his freedom, sneakily looked around. The ugly doll was poking out of his cor. Soon, his eyes shed with shock. He saw another one of his old ssmates!


    Liu Yi?!


    His former ssmate, who always scored the first three in ss, was standing among the student council members. She also wore the student council badge. She kept her head lowered and stood lowly like a servant. Sensing the gaze from Ji Jie, Liu Yi frowned and wanted to shut the man up.


    Thankfully, the five students in red ignored Ji Jie. They waved and pointed at the bed furthest away. Then, Ji Jie stopped existing in their eyes.


    Ji Jie, who felt overlooked, extended his neck in curiosity. He saw that there was a map of the school on the meeting table. Currently, the first floor of the activity building and the second floor of theb building were circled out in ck. These two ces also gave the student council the greatest trouble.


    Do you still have the mood to check out the map? The student behind Ji Jie shoved Ji Jie roughly into a mosquito. Tonight, you will sleep here!


    I was merely curious about how to join you guys! I also want to service the school


    No one responded. Ji Jie felt the temperature in the lower. He sat on something. He turned around and saw a bedridden student in the bed. The elders body was so cold that it felt like he had just been moved out of the freezer.


    Friend? Uncle? Since the old man had no interest in speaking, Ji Jie curled up in the corner. He ced the ugly doll between the two of them. Uncle, we should keep to our own sides of the bed. If theres a chance, Ill carry you and escape.


    Ji Jie adjusted his breathing and wanted to reserve his strength for the uing escape. He prayed silently in his heart that there would not be an ident. He hoped that everything would be fine.


    The uncle who shared his bed started to shiver. About half an hourter, the uncle slowly climbed up from the bed.


    Uncle? Youre alive?!


    Ji Jie was so scared that he pulled the nket away from the elder. He wanted to cover his eyes. The elders feetnded on the ground. His whole body trembled. Due to extreme fear, his teeth chattered as well. He pulled away the and ambled shakily to the other bed


    Just as the sky was about to brighten, more strange events urred inside the bedroom. The whole building reeked of anxiety and fear. They couldnt tell where the fear came from. They just felt like theyd die horribly if they stayed in that room any longer.


    The broadcast called for everyone to wake up. The bedroom doors of Building 6 flew open. Some students ran out crazily with fear shing in their eyes.


    There are fewer students here for breakfastpared to yesterday. Xi San yawned. He, Wang Jie and Du Bai spent another night squatting in the toilet. His legs were so sore.


    Who is as courageous as you that theyd still have their meals punctually three times a day? Du Bai bought some dry food and shoved them into his bag.


    Id rather be full if I have to die. Xi San took arge gulp of the soy milk. Gao Ming didnte back again yesterday night. When school ended yesterday, he went to the female toilet with Liu Yi. I suspect he has done something Ive been meaning to do.


    Have he and Liu Yi found the way out? Wang Jie grabbed the bread tight, and his eyes slowly changed. These two clever people are plotting something.


    No. I suspect he spent his night at the female hostel yesterday.


    Shut the fuck up. Wang Jie dumped his ruined bread on the table. He took out his phone and sent many messages to Gao Ming. Compared to his other roommates, Gao Ming appeared like he was several steps ahead.


    The sound of the phone vibrating came from behind him. Wang Jie whipped his body around and saw Gao Ming standing behind him with his tray of food.


    His gaze softened instantly. After confirming the code with Gao Ming, he felt better. Brother Ming, where were you yesterday night?


    Liu Yi went missing the girls toilet yesterday, so I spent the night looking for her. Gao Ming shook his head. The school is bing more dangerous. You have to stay calm no matter what.


    The Fear Illness had started to spread in Building 6. Gao Ming could confirm that the situation was getting worse for both humans and ghosts.


    Flood, a killer moving through paintings and Fear Illness, Gao Ming brought immense pressure to Han De Private Academy.


    Gao Ming stared at the school corridors as he calcted the time. Normally, the student council members would patrol the corridors to examine the students clothing as sses were about to start. However, there was not a single student council member in the corridors that day.


    Fear Illness shouldnt have spread so quickly. Fear Illness had a longtency period. It needed an opportune moment to explode. Has it already exploded?


    After finishing breakfast, the students left the canteen and headed to ss.


    The female teacher said that if we cant find 51 students to attend the ss today, none of us will be able to leave. Xi San was worried. He looked at the empty seats, How about we ask a few students from the next ss to join us?


    Dont worry. I saw more strange things being moved into the hostels yesterday night. More students have been swapped. Wang Jie focused on the numbers on the ckboard. The numbers of humans and ghosts kept changing. They had tomit to different voting every day.


    Gao Ming beside him was not worried either. He still had the death portrait of Si Sui Apartment and his birthday. He could still summon his parents and neighbours like Auntie Busybody.


    He could start his own parent-teacher conference.


    The students slowly entered the ssroom. Fatty, who should have died yesterday, appeared again. It followed behind Ma Tao. It appeared to be another ghost that took Fattys body that day.


    As the time for ss approached, Zhou Sisi and Captain Ding Yuan, who should have stayed in the storage room, entered the ssroom as well.


    Captain Ding seemed to have found out that the headquarters had sent reinforcements into the school. To prevent more innocent sacrifices, he decided toe out of hiding to face Situ An.


    Not long after they joined the ss, Zuo Jun led Bai Xiao in the centre uniform into ss. His gaze paused for a long time on Ding Yuan before showing a smile. As he was about to go over to say something, Liu Yi entered the ssroom wearing the student council badge. She stood opposite Zuo Jun, representing the two different kinds of rules.


    Move! We found Yuan Hui! Qian Junran entered from the back of the ss with arrogance. A few other male students and the unstable Zuo Bo followed him. Liu Yi, this is such a coincidence. You have no idea what weve survived at the office building


    Whenever Qian Junran wanted to show off, something would happen. Suddenly, Yuan Hui grabbed his neck from behind. Brother? Calm down. Do you want to kill me?


    Qian Junran fell backwards. Yuan Hui tightened his fists as he red at Zuo Jun with his bloodshot eyes. Zuo Jun, you murderer! Arent you afraid of karma? All of us will die because of you!


    I should have cut off your tongue. Zuo Jun was unfazed. He walked to his seat and sat down.


    Gao Ming caught Zuo Juns attention almost instantly. Due to the big picture, neither acknowledged the other. Bai Xiao didnt walk towards Gao Ming. He studied everyone in ss. He was curious about the kind of ss that would cultivate a monster like Gao Ming.


    The ssroom slowly filled up. As there was about to be no seat left, footsteps echoed. An arm wearing a branded watched opened the door.


    With everyone watching him, Ji Jie, in his branded clothes, appeared at the door with the ugly door. He found the spot where the sun would shine down on him and struck a pose. With a mysterious smile on his face, he took the podium.


    Gao Ming, who was messaging Liu Yi, saw the dull Ji Jie was holding. He checked a few more times due to uncertainty. Then, his expression shifted tremendously.
