As soon as I stepped out of the door, I caught a taxi. Just when I was feeling happy, as soon as I got on, the skull-looking driver drove off without even asking me where I was going, which made me nervous, making me feel like I had been kidnapped.

"Are you afraid?" Uncle Skeleton laughed. His relaxed expression didn't make me feel any better.

Seeing that I was so nervous that I couldn't speak, the Skeleton Man turned his head and looked at me. He laughed again, and his smile was so bright that even the bones on his dry face could be seen clearly.

I was so angry, was it really worth being so happy to catch me? I'm not afraid that I would call the police and capture him right now. I thought to myself, my hand already reaching stealthily for my bag. My cell phone is under my hand.

"Did your mother find someone to help you breakthrough yesterday?" The Skeleton Man's face became serious. His face sank, and he looked more like a skeleton.

"How do you know?" I asked him, feigning surprise, as my hand began to move lightly across the screen of my cell phone.

"Did something strange happen to you last night?" He glanced at me again in the rearview mirror, and his face began to grow serious, even more so than a skeleton's.

Is he asking me about the night, but who is he, why should I tell him, but how does he know I had a strange encounter last night?

To think that even the security guards downstairs heard my soul-stirring scream last night, how could anyone not know that? Perhaps he had heard it from someone else.

I thought, but I didn't dare to say anything. In my heart, he was the one who kidnapped me.

Seeing that I didn't answer him, a name card appeared in front of me: "You're at school. This is my business card. If you encounter any strange things again, come and find me."

Only then did I realize that the car had stopped and indeed, I had reached my school. I grabbed my business card, opened the door and jumped out, cursing in my heart: "Damn it, it's another liar."

Even though I clearly knew that this was a scammer, I still threw the business card into my bag. I kept my guard up and thought that if something really happened to this fellow in the future, I could find him with a clue. However, I don't have the mood to see who he really is right now.

When I arrived at the school, I found out that the meeting had really ended. When I knocked on the door and entered the classroom, everyone in the room looked at me as if they were looking at an alien. This was my first meeting and I was late.

After a while, the guide asked me to talk to him for a while. He told me that it was the beginning of the school, so I couldn't make it too special. Even though we already rented an apartment outside, I still had to go to my room for a while, and even though he said it in a tactful manner, I knew in my heart that he was trying to get me to come back.

All in all, it seemed that I needed to return to my room for a while. As for having a good time in the apartment, that could only be done later.

We'll talk about it later. Anyway, it's too scary there, and I don't want to live in an apartment anymore. At least there are four people in one of the dorms.

Seeing that I agreed so readily, the guide heaved a sigh of relief. He must have thought for a long time before coming to sincerely advise me. I've already paid the rent for three years already, isn't it too unreasonable for me to not let him live?

In my heart, I pestered the guide, but I didn't say a single word out loud. I'm not stupid, how could I offend the director?

As soon as I entered the dorm, the other three girls in my dorm exploded. They all scolded me. I didn't expect them to come to my dorm to report and show their faces. I wanted to forget about it in the future.

Looking at those three mischievous girls, my mouth curved into a smile as I spoke in my heart. Just the three of you are qualified to compete with me. Didn't you see who I am and how I am afraid of you?

However, we still had to get on good terms with each other as soon as we met. I waved my hand and invited the three of them to the most expensive restaurant by the side of the school, saying that it would be considered as an apology.

Even though it's called an apology, it's actually my sugar-coated artillery shell. Let's first confuse them before talking about anything else.

The three girls in our dorm were each more beautiful than the other. The oldest was called Li Shi Shi, a typical classical beauty. Her house was in the antique business, and she also seemed to have walked down from an antique shop painting in a dignified and elegant manner.

The other one was called Nie Yuexi. She had the characteristics of a western beauty, and her skin was whiter than mine. However, her chin was a bit pointed, so I thought that she was slightly inferior to me.

There was also Wang Mo, a delicate looking man with a pair of black rimmed glasses. His timid eyes flashed behind the thick glasses; it was obvious that he was a good girl at home.

Both Nie Yuan Xi and Wang Hei said that they came from poor families and needed Li Shi Shi and me to take care of them.

Looking at their blinking eyes, I caught a glimpse of Li Shi Shi's unsightly expression from the corner of her mouth, and immediately got angry in my heart.

It seems like she looks down on these two. What's the big deal? Your family has money, but my family is poor. If you don't protect them, then sister will.

Amongst the four of us, Li Shi Shi was the oldest, nineteen years old, and Wang Mo was only sixteen.

I was the same age as Nie Yuxi, both at eighteen. To our surprise, we were not only the same age, but born a day ago. It was just that I was born at around nine in the evening, whereas she was born shortly before midnight.

This made us all excited. For the sake of the same year and the same month and the same day, we had a toast first. At that moment, our chatters started. It was very lively.

Just as we were sitting there talking, the fat boy with glasses at the foot of my building came in.

As soon as he saw me, the fat guy came over and sat down next to me. He gave us a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes and nodded to us as a greeting.

Without waiting for me to open my mouth, Li Shi Shi immediately introduced us with a smile: "This is my cousin Li Xiaochen, and he's also a freshman this year. He's from the History department."

Looking at Li Shi Shi's blushing cheeks and bashful expression, I didn't know why, but I felt a sour feeling in my stomach. Out of politeness, I could only endure it.

After boasting for a while, we soon got to know each other. Only then did we find out that the house under my apartment was his rented apartment. He was the same as me, wanting to find a place to enjoy life, but once school started, he was recruited by their supervisor.

We were so excited by our conversation that we had to play a little longer, of course, until the lights went out at night, and then we went back to our rooms.

Of course, Li Xiaochen was in a rush to pay for the meal, but this time it was me who invited the customer, can others pay for the meal? I passed the card to the waiter, who looked at me and didn't say anything else as she went to the reception desk to check out the bill.

Watching me use my card to pay the bill, Wang Mo pushed his glasses with a look of shock on his face. Li Shi Shi curled her lips but didn't say anything.

I had already packed a bag in my bedroom so that I could stay at school if I had something to do, and now it seemed that I had made the right decision.

The four of us got a little drunk and chatted for half the night before gradually falling asleep one by one.

Listening to them all fall asleep, I also wanted to sleep, but I just felt like going to the toilet. Our dormitory's bathroom is the common kind, one floor at a time, and our bedroom is still a distance away from the bathroom.

I was not yet drunk, nor did I turn on the light in my bedroom. I went to the washroom, feeling my way through the darkness.

The light in the corridor was dim, and I had the faint feeling that someone was following me. I didn't mind the alcohol, but I headed straight for the washroom to solve my problem.

I did not expect the light in the washroom to be even dimmer. As I was washing my hands, the dim yellow light suddenly went out, and my drunkenness immediately disappeared. A cold air rose from my spine and rushed to my head.

I was about to cry out in fright, but then the light came on again, flickering a little, as if it were broken, and I couldn't help but think back to last night, my heart pounding, and I ran back to my room.

But as soon as I entered the bedroom door, I saw a face glowing with a green light directly in front of me. I screamed in fright, almost losing my soul.

"Ol 'Two, don't yell, it's me." Wang Mo's slow and unhurried voice reached my ears. Hearing her voice, I immediately quieted down.

At this moment, the other two people in the room were woken up by us and asked what had happened.

I'm also curious, why is there green light on Wang Mo's face?

Nie Yuan Xi laughed and pointed to the phone in Wang Mo's hand and told us that it was the glow from the screen of his phone. Since Wang Mo's phone wasn't a smartphone, it didn't even have a flashlight on it.

"You guys should switch on the lights. This light is too scary." Li Shi Shi woke up from her stupor and angrily said to us.

"Are you sleeping like a fool? The lights in the dorm have long been turned off, and the electricity in the corridors has also been turned off." Wang Mo spoke slowly like before.

What? There was no electricity in the corridor. I turned my head to look at the door of the room that hadn't closed yet. It was completely dark outside. I couldn't help but feel lucky that I came back quickly.

Nie Yuexi turned on the flashlight on her mobile phone and lit it up for us. The room immediately lit up.

In the instant that the room lit up, I felt as if there was a white shadow flashing in front of my eyes. My heart couldn't help but be alarmed as beads of sweat started to seep out from my forehead.
