Even though it was just a glance, it was impossible for me to be wrong about the lingering ghost aura on that face.

Those frightened and widened eyes, as well as the green veins on his face caused by the ghost aura's invasion, were definitely not the appearance of someone who jumped down to commit suicide.

I couldn't help clenching my fists. The ghost from last night still hadn't left! Those three needles of mine are not fatal, but they are definitely not pleasant. Furthermore, they were injured by the Jade Kuan Yin on my chest, and she actually dared to stay in the school to harm other innocent people!

One of the windows on the sixth floor had shattered, and I looked up just above the dead man, just in time to see a girl looking down.

"Li Ya-Bing was really unlucky to have made such a beautiful friend. No wonder she could jump off a building."

Listening to the surrounding gossip, I couldn't help but frown. What does jumping down a building have to do with one's best friend's looks? Isn't this nonsense?

"Yeah, the people you like end up liking your best friend. Tsk tsk."

I couldn't help but twitch the corner of my mouth. After looking at the sixth floor again, I turned around and left.

The ghost had to be found, and it was a threat both to me and to the students at the school.

It was night when I went down to the girls' dormitory. The street lamps had been turned off, but the cameras were still on. Although it was two o'clock at night, some of the lights were still on, including the one with the broken glass.

I found a surveillance camera and jumped into a blind spot. I heard that Jiangnan University doesn't prohibit boys from entering the female dorm. As long as they are accompanied by a girl, it's fine if I'm a bachelor dog.

At two in the morning, the whole room was quiet except for the sound control lights in the corridor.

I couldn't help but rub my arms. I felt that the temperature in the room was much lower than the temperature outside. I didn't know if it was due to the heavy yin energy in the female dormitory.

Come to think of it, why did Jiang-Nan school build an apartment that was a mixture of male and female, and why were there hidden rules that allowed boys to enter the female dorms? There was a problem in itself, as if it was purposely filling these dormitories with a sense of masculinity.

Shaking my head, I didn't continue to stay. If I was seen by the butler, tonight's plan would be in vain.

Stealthily, I carefully made my way to the door of 616 on the sixth floor.

I tried the door handle, then reflexively pulled it back.

It was so cold. It was like suddenly grasping a block of ice in the middle of winter.

After hesitating for a moment, I finally knocked on the door.

There was no sound from inside. Could it be that he had fallen asleep? But wasn't the light on before?

I frowned and was going to knock on the door again. If that didn't work, I would have to go somewhere else.

However, at this moment, a bright light shot out from the other side of the corridor.

"Who's there!"

Damn it, it's a dorm lady.

I put my hands down and was ready to run away. If I got caught, I wouldn't be able to wash myself even if I jumped into the Yellow River.

"Come in."

At that moment, the door suddenly opened, and I felt a soft, cold hand grab me and pull me inside, then close the door behind me.

A girl with a head of short hair was leaning against the door, staring out into the corridor. She wore a cute pink nightgown, and some of her round cheeks looked very cute.

I stood at the side in a daze until she turned around and stared at me. "You've already left. Who are you? Why have you come to find me?"

"En..." "Uh, your place isn't clean." My face reddened a little. As an experienced bachelor dog, I had never gotten so close to a girl alone before. I was at a loss for what to do.

After saying this, she realized that it was very easy for her to misunderstand something.

However, unlike my expectations, the girl nodded her head silently. A trace of fear could be seen in her staunch eyes.

The girl went to the side of the bed and sat down. She gestured for me to sit on the bed opposite mine, which was Li Ya-Bing's bed.

"I understand what you mean. If I had advised her, perhaps she wouldn't have died."

"What do you mean?" I frowned and stared at the girl in front of me, who seemed to be in pain.

The girl didn't answer my question, but took out a jade pendant.

This jade pendant was very strange. There were two creatures that looked like baby elephants. They were wrapped around each other to form a circle, and the carving was very detailed. The quality of the jade was also very good, shining with a round and delicate luster.

The one on this jade pendant was called Meng Yan, also known as the Dream Devouring Beast. They specialized in eating human nightmares, so some people liked to carve their personal jade artifacts into the shape of dream Yan Mo.

"This jade pendant should have saved me?"

"This jade pendant saved you?"

The girl lightly nodded her head, put the jade pendant next to her body, and started to explain once again.

It turned out that during the day, Li Ya-Bing was heartbroken that her favorite boy had been rejected. She remembered that the seventh floor of the dorm in the school had a nonexistent ninth room which contained the legend of a ghost that could fulfill one's dreams.

Last night, he forcefully dragged his roommate and best friend, Bai Ya, to take the risk.

The two of them searched for an entire night, but were unable to find that so-called ghost. They then went back to their bedroom in disappointment. Who knew that the next day, Li Ya-Bing would suddenly jump off the building?

She didn't show any other emotion during the whole process, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her, but I could see that her hands had turned white from overexertion.

I looked at the photo album on the girl's table. It was a picture of two pretty girls together.

I stood up, opened the door, and turned.

"If you want to avenge her, then bring me to the seventh floor."

We soon reached the seventh floor.

The temperature here was actually lower than in other places. I clearly saw Bai Ya shiver.

There were no corridor lights on this floor, and the entire floor was shrouded in darkness.

I looked at the long, dark corridor and the dark windows, and I felt uneasy. This dorm room was so strange. From the first floor to the seventh floor, the temperature grew colder and colder, like a huge ice coffin.

The walkway was dark, visible only in the small area illuminated by the light from the cell phone.

The light from the cell phone shone on the first door. It was a dusty old bedroom door, which was completely different from the new bedroom door on the sixth floor below. The number 01 was stuck on the door. However, the number '0' in front of it seemed to have been dug out by something. All that was left were the remnants and several sharp scratches.

Bai Ya, who was initially trembling with fear, followed behind me. However, when she saw the door to my room, she unconsciously grabbed my sleeve and leaned towards my side. She didn't know how such a timid person had gone upstairs with her best friend yesterday.

I patted her on the shoulder and walked on.

After that, there wasn't anything different with the door to the dorm room. All the 'zeros' had been dug out by something, and the temperature of the room dropped lower and lower. After cultivating for so many years, I gradually started to feel a chill, while Bai Ya by the side was trembling like a sieve.

By the time we got to gate 03, we could barely see the end of the path, as if we were in a dark space, with only each other and the door plates in sight.

As we went deeper, the temperature dropped.

Bai Ya, who was at the side, ignored her modesty and hugged my hands in her embrace, burying them almost entirely in her chest. Feeling the softness, I suddenly felt that this dark space seemed to be rather pleasing to the eye.

Bai Ya and I had already reached the entrance of 07. Aside from the strange coldness, we didn't encounter anything else out of the ordinary.

We stopped in front of the last door and shone the light on our cell phones.

Still nothing, the eighth door was pasted with 08 as expected.

Just as I was about to say something, the sound of faint footsteps came from the corridor behind us. It was as though a tempo was playing on our hearts.
