"Stranger things?" Xia Xiaoyu repeated, furrowing her brows. "No matter what it is, we need to talk about it. The situation we are facing is very dangerous. If we don't figure this out, it could very well target any one of us next time. So no matter what we encounter, no matter how terrifying it may be, we must speak up and find a way to deal with it, because we have no other choice..."
Xia Xiaoyu spoke with determination and clarity. She understood very well the predicament and danger that everyone in All Dormitory was facing. Time could not be wasted; they needed to resolve this matter quickly. Otherwise, it could lead to an endless cycle of incidents. Moreover, two bizarre deaths had already occurred in their dormitory, and no one knew if the next incident would happen there again.
Currently, Xia Xiaoyu had too little information at hand; she did not understand the motives, reasons, or any patterns that were emerging.
She did not know when another terrifying event would occur or when death would strike again.
Even less did she know who the next target would be; it could very well be anyone from her dormitory, including herself.
Therefore, to resolve this trouble, they had no right to evade; they could only continue to investigate...
"It’s the senior dormitory 804. The two students who died recently were both from 804 Boys' Dormitory. First was Li Haotian, and today’s deceased student is Yu Ling, whose nickname is Ling Shao... they are all from the same dormitory... The police are currently conducting a thorough investigation of that dormitory, and everyone inside has been taken to the detention center..."
"What exactly happened?" Upon hearing what Chen Mumu said, Xia Xiaoyu realized that the police would surely impose strict requirements on the university since three consecutive days of deaths were extremely rare, especially given how strange these deaths were.
Although deaths among students at the university were not uncommon—some seniors might faint from stress during exams or even commit suicide due to overwhelming pressure—such bizarre deaths would not lead the police to believe they were suicides.
Tian Xiaojing noticed that Chen Mumu had been silent for a while. She glanced at Xia Xiaoyu and then softly said, "Here's what happened: Yu Ling from 804 died. When he woke up this morning, another student suddenly went insane. He was fine last night, but this morning he just lost his mind?"
"Suddenly going crazy!"
Xia Xiaoyu was momentarily stunned by this statement. How could a perfectly normal person suddenly go insane?
"His name is Wang Dong, but others say to call him A-Dong... We found out through Tang Jiaying, who is a senior at our school. He has already been sent to National Central Hospital for treatment. You have to wonder, isn't this..." Tian Xiaojing didn't finish her sentence but looked at Xia Xiaoyu instead.
"Of course it wouldn't be man-made, but this situation is too troublesome," Xia Xiaoyu replied calmly. However, the matter was far more serious than she had imagined.
"What should we do next? This situation is very strange and unusual!" Tian Xiaojing shifted her gaze back to Xia Xiaoyu.
In the dormitory, only Xia Xiaoyu understood the entire situation.
"I don't know, but this matter is different from usual; there are no patterns. The only conclusion we can draw is that it's unusual. Let's start with small things and gradually search for the truth..." Although it was troublesome, Xia Xiaoyu knew there was no other way at the moment.
"Sister Xiaoyu, do you think we might be next?" Tang Jiaying suddenly asked.
A simple question made all the girls in the dormitory shudder involuntarily. This situation was indeed too bizarre. Moreover, strange occurrences had also happened in their dormitory, so they were all very frightened.
"Don't overthink it. The only thing we need to do now is to keep our minds steady and not let anything take advantage of us! It's late now; everyone should get some rest!"
Xia Xiaoyu signaled for everyone to remain calm. Being anxious at this moment would not only affect themselves but could also lead them to overlook the most critical aspects.
Time passed unknowingly, and Xia Xiaoyu turned her head to see the portrait hanging on the wall again.
The woman in the painting was still so elegant and extraordinary, as if she were a beautiful fairy. Her lip color became a focal point, very beautiful indeed.
However, whenever Xia Xiaoyu looked at the woman in the portrait, she always felt that something was off.
It wasn't that there was anything wrong with the portrait itself, but rather that the woman seemed different from when she first saw it.
Yet, upon another glance, she still couldn't identify anything particularly unusual. Still, the feeling in her heart did not fade; she felt that the woman in the portrait was not the same as when she first saw it.
How could she have such a feeling?
