Nightmare Assault

The next morning, just as the sun came up, the door of Room 405 opened a small gap. Luo Yi, behind the door, looked around before turning to nod at Zhen Jianren behind him. Then, Luo Yi moved to allow Zhen Jianren to squeeze past him. The duo went out. They were very silent.

The surroundings were quiet. The people in Room 404 and 406 were still asleep. Luo Yi looked down the corridor.

The first ray of the sun hadn’t arrived. A mist enveloped them. An unsettling air permeated the situation…

Just as Zhen Jianren was about to turn around to close the door, his eyes were attracted by something. He frowned as he turned his face to it. The next second, he froze and a cold sweat dripped down his back.

There was a handprint left on the door. The redness was still bright. It was glaring. This was a bloody handprint!

The scariest thing was the fingers of the handprint were twice as long as normal fingers!

Luo Yi also discovered the handprint. His eyes bulged, and his body trembled. He lost the power of speech. It was hard to imagine such a scary character was just outside their door not too long ago. They might have tried to open their door…

“Go get some water,” Zhen Jianren growled in a low voice.

…

Accompanying the knocking was Jiang Cheng’s satisfying groan. He was rolling comfortably on the ground in his underclothes. The sunlight filtered through the window. Everything was peaceful and nice.

“Fatty.” Jiang Cheng narrowed his eyes. The light shone on his juicy and bouncy butts. “Don’t you think I look just like a lazy angel?”

Fatty opened the door and grumbled, “Doctor, do you have no shame?”

…

Behind the door were the three from Room 406. Xu Wen stood closest to the door. The scene inside the room surprised her. She looked like she was going to war. However, Jiang Cheng, who should have been the most nervous, appeared like he was on holiday.

“Miss Xu.” Jiang Cheng gasped in mock shame, “I’m so sorry. I was meditating.” Jiang Cheng pulled up his pants. “Is there anything I can help you with?”

Xu Wen looked awkward for a moment before she became serious again, “Mr. Hao, please take care of your safety on this journey.”

“You too,” Jiang Cheng replied.

“The people in Room 405 have left.” Xu Wen turned her head to point at the other door. “Have they been here?”

“No.”

“Then, we shall go.”

“Take care.”

Zhang Yinyin was the last to leave. She looked into Jiang Cheng’s eyes like she wanted to read something there, but she clearly failed.

“Miss Zhang,” Jiang Cheng invited her, “Do you plan to join us?”

Zhang Yinyin was startled. When Jiang Cheng took a step towards her, she took a step back. After realising how awkward she was acting, she turned to look at the path where Xu Wen had left. She was shocked to realise the woman had disappeared.

“You have to be careful. I’m going with them.” She said hastily before running to catch up to her teammates. Jiang Cheng looked at her running figure, and his smile faded. Seeing Jiang Cheng liked this, Fatty became alert, too. “Doctor, did you discover anything?”

“Don’t you think she’s similar to someone we know?” Jiang Cheng repeated this question.

“Do you mean… Chen Xiaomeng?” Fatty remembered this.

“Yes.” Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and said seriously, “They have the same goal.” Fatty shivered. He remembered Chen Xiaomeng’s tactics. If Jiang Cheng hadn’t been there, she would have been the only person to leave the last mission alive. Poor Man Li fell into her trap.

“Doctor,” Fatty gasped in shock. “Is Zhang Yinyin’s goal to kill all of us?”

“No.” Jiang Cheng shook his head. “That’s their minor goal. Their ultimate goal… is me.”

Fatty was stunned, “Do they want to kill you?”

Jiang Cheng hesitated for a long time before admitting, “In a way.” He looked out the window. His gaze blurring. Fatty hadn’t seen Jiang Cheng like this, radiating pessimism.

Fatty couldn’t help but say, “Don’t be so sad, Doctor. I believe we can leave here alive!”

Jiang Cheng sighed and shook his head. “No. You don’t understand this kind of woman. They’d rather destroy the things they can’t have… They have always been like this.”

Fatty, “...”

…

At the main education building, two figures slithered down the corridors. Luo Yi was still hung up on the bloody handprint incident. He was clearly distracted. Zhen Jianren was also not as calm as before. Sweat dampened his hair.

If the scratching on the first night could be explained as a coincidence, then the bloody handprint was evidence that they had been targeted. Before they left, they checked the doors of Room 404, 406 and 407. Only their room had the handprint. Why?

Had they triggered some kind of taboo that caused the ghost to target them, or was it an issue with Room 405 itself?

…

There were so many questions. The known clues were limited. Since they knew they had been targeted, the only solution was to make a move before the ghosts, find the clues and end the mission. They had to race with time. Some risks were inevitable.

“What is that ghost?” Luo Yi’s shaky voice came from behind. “To be able to leave behind a giant handprint and a hoof print.”

Zhen Jianren was annoyed, “Shush!” He interrupted, “Even if we know the answer, it’s pointless.”

The only good thing was he managed to remove the handprint with a wet cloth before the people in Rooms 404 and 406 woke up. If they had seen it, his situation would be much worse. Those who had been targeted would be ostracised in a mission.

His tie was gone. Zhen Jianren looked more like an evil gambler at that moment. Indeed, he decided to make a bet.

Luo Yi had chosen to give up. He was a sadist. In their world, the lonely school girl walking home and the office lady on the streets at night were his targets. He called himself the stalker of the night.
