I set you up on a blind date, and you've managed to overcome all the weirdness?

"Su Hong, your imagination is a bit too wild."

Lin Yan laboriously pulled his hand away and chuckled awkwardly.

"I just can't stand that bastard bullying people. Alright, alright, hurry back to the dorm, I still have to patrol the buildings."

After saying that, Lin Yan ran away as if his life depended on it, his back view looking extremely disheveled.

Su Hong stood in the corridor and smelled the fingers that had just touched Lin Yan's wrist.

Whether you admit it or not...

"Since you've come to provoke me, you'll never be able to shake me off in this lifetime."

……

After Lin Yan walked away, he took out the note and casually stuffed it into the trash can next to him.

Keep the appointment? Are you kidding me?

Do you really think he's a brainless JUMP protagonist?

Lin Yan cursed inwardly.

Since that bastard dared to so blatantly issue a challenge, it means he must have dug a pit for him to fall into.

If they actually go, then that would be exactly what we wanted.

"If I don't follow your script, let's see how this play continues."

He wasn't arrogant enough to go and fight someone who was clearly the final boss all by himself.

"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass."

Lin Yan was making plans in his mind.

"As long as I don't go tonight, I'll keep some of his attention occupied."

"As for me, all I have to do is protect my senior's tower."

Lin Yan had just made up his mind when time seemed to speed up many times over, and suddenly it was dark.

Wow, this world of yours is pretty smart, senior.

He then turned around and walked towards the girls' dormitory.

Tonight's mission is simple: defend the crystal!

It's 11:30 p.m.

Lin Yan carried an iron pipe he had taken from the water room downstairs in his left hand and a chair in his right, and went up to the fourth floor with ease.

He even went to the water room on the fourth floor to take a look, and found that the bodies of Xiaoya and the other two were gone, and he didn't know who had dragged them away.

But there seems to be no word from the school.

Now Lin Yan was even more certain that this was not the real world, otherwise someone would have already come to Su Hong with a guaranteed admission to graduate school.

Lin Yan placed the chair at the door of dormitory 404, sat down, and placed the iron pipe across his knees.

A little light was still shining through the small window crack in the door, and Su Hong was inside at that moment.

Ever since Lin Yan forced Su Hong's three roommates to leave the dormitory, she has been living alone in this empty room.

Lin Yan raised his hand and knocked on the door frame.

"Su Hong, the corridor light is broken tonight, I'll keep watch here."

"Sleep soundly. I'll take care of things, no matter what happens."

A rustling sound came from inside the door, as if the girl on the bed had turned over.

Lin Yan didn't bother to think about what Su Hong was feeling right now.

All he knew was that the girl behind the door was his only clue to breaking the deadlock. As long as he could protect her and prevent the horrific skinning incident from happening again, he should be able to get through the game.

At twelve o'clock, the bell rang.

Lin Yan focused intently and gripped the iron pipe tightly in his hand.

And then... ten minutes passed, then an hour passed~

We waited until the sky began to lighten.

There wasn't a sound coming from the direction of the music classroom building.

The corridor was also quiet.

It was as if Teacher Chen had suddenly changed his ways; he swallowed his anger and didn't even send over a scout.

Lin Yan yawned and stood up to stretch his stiff neck.

"You're quite patient, old tortoise."

Looking at the empty corridor, Lin Yan thought to himself that it was just the calm before the storm.

Chen Qing can't do anything to him openly, but he's definitely plotting something big in secret.

The daytime didn't skip over automatically again.

Lin Yan immediately became worried; if they didn't skip over it, it meant something was going to happen.

He had no choice but to become her bodyguard, secretly following Su Hong to protect her safety.

In this way, it was inevitable that he would run into Chen Qing.

He wears a white shirt every day and teaches his students with a gentle and refined demeanor. When he encounters Lin Yan in the corridor, he will politely nod and greet her.

It was as if that note had never existed.

But by the evening of the following day, the truth was quickly revealed.

At first, it was just a girl who went to the water room to get hot water and didn't come back on time. Her roommate thought she had gone to the convenience store and didn't think much of it.

When the dorms were checked that evening, the person was still nowhere to be found.

Only a pink thermos was left in the water room, lying next to the drain. Her roommate said that it was hers.

On the morning of the third day, the atmosphere at school started to feel strange.

Two more girls who went to the library to study together vanished without a trace while passing a deserted tree-lined path.

The surveillance cameras were broken, and there were no signs of struggle at the scene; it was as if the person had simply vanished into thin air.

By noon on the fourth day, the panic had completely exploded.

Two more girls have gone missing, and they disappeared right there in the busy school building!

Just around the corner of the stairs, the person disappeared in the blink of an eye!

This caused an uproar at the school, and soon even Lin Yan, who was only focused on guarding the crystal, heard about it.

Three days in total, five people.

The speed at which they disappeared was getting faster and faster, and their methods were becoming increasingly brazen.

Everyone was on edge, afraid that "I'll be next."

The once vibrant campus now resembles a ghost town, where students even have to hold hands to go to the toilet.

Lin Yan had just seen Su Hong upstairs and was about to go to the dormitory manager's office to help her carry a bucket of water.

I happened to see a document on the old hag's table. I picked it up and took a look. It turned out to be a list of students who had gone missing in the past few days.

Five.

It matched the details of the shocking series of skinning murders that occurred in Jiangcheng thirty years ago, as recorded in the archives.

Lin Yan crumpled the list into a ball and slammed it against the wall.

Old Chen got anxious.

The plan failed because they couldn't get him to go to the music room on the first night.

This seemingly refined scoundrel changed his strategy, no longer trying to take on him as a tough nut to crack, but instead speeding up his "jungling" process.

It's alright if Su Hong is stuck here; there are others who are easier to control.

These five girls are probably not just missing.

Combining the files provided by Su Qinghan, and the infamous reputation the red-clad senior left behind on this campus thirty years later…

These five people are most likely dead.

Lin Yan still couldn't figure out what Chen Qing was up to.

But he knew that in all suspense movies, serial killers like to save the most perfect prey for the grand finale.

Su Hong, as the predecessor of the red-clad senior, has no reason not to be the main character in the center position.

It's very likely that the final battle will take place in the next few days.

That is, when Old Man Chen was about to make a move against Su Hong!

Lin Yan pulled the rusty iron pipe out of the drawer, weighed it, and his eyes were frighteningly dark.

Actually, Su Hong wasn't completely alone during those three days.

Su Hong was supposed to be a reclusive loner, but that's where the problem lies.

These past two days, a girl named Xu Ran from the next dorm room has suddenly become very attentive to Su Hong, her enthusiasm is a bit strange.
