"Then what should we do now?" Xia Xiaoyu finally suppressed the fear in her heart after a long while. At this moment, she knew that what she was most worried about was still the situation at hand.
"I will find a way to uncover the truth. As for you, it's best to return to the University for now. If anything happens, I will notify you. Also, it's better not to wander around alone lately, even during the day... That thing seems to only appear for a short time each time, but it is a terrifying creature."
"It seems we are facing two problems now. One is Wang Xiaojia. However, even if she is harming others, it seems she hasn't harmed Xia Xiaoyu. So who is targeting her..."
"Another ghost..."
Zifeng took over Xu Qian's words and said, "Wang Xiaojia went missing four years ago and has now appeared at the University. It can be concluded that she is already dead. It's simple; she wouldn't appear at the University for no reason. She has a purpose, and despite repeatedly finding Xia Xiaoyu without harming her, she must have her own motives. I suspect that the people she harmed are related to her disappearance. She has returned for revenge or something else because there is no body in the ancient well of Qingshui Village, so she didn't die there; her body is somewhere else..."
"But something else has targeted Xia Xiaoyu. What is going on with that?" Xu Qian asked.
"It's simple; actually, you all miscalculated from the beginning. There isn't just one ghost in the University; from start to finish, there are two ghosts killing people in the University, and one of them is paying attention to Xia Xiaoyu..."
"What about the other one?"
"I don't know!" Zifeng shook his head. "Last time at the University when I encountered the Ghost Infant, I could feel a strong resentment lingering around the Girls' Dormitory, but it was too cunning and wouldn't show itself..."
"I think I know!"
Xia Xiaoyu paused for a moment before slowly saying, "What he said is correct. Even if Wang Xiaojia is dead, she hasn't targeted me. Xiao Qian, do you remember that woman you ran over twice in the Ghost Barrier? The one dressed in Qing Dynasty clothing? It was her; I saw her last night... She is responsible for the deaths of Xiao Xi and many others; it must be her!"
"Calm down for now," Xu Qian signaled Xia Xiaoyu to steady her emotions, and he too became serious.
"In any case, things are chaotic right now. Although we have found the cause of death, what does that lead to? Why were they chosen, and why did they come to you? Have you considered..." Zifeng voiced the words that left everyone feeling hoarse.
Indeed, why were they targeted? There were too many entanglements involved...
"I'll take you to the University. As for everything else, I'll find a way to understand it. You don't need to worry about that..."
Zifeng turned the car towards Cherry Blossom University.
Xia Xiaoyu entered the University alone. It was very quiet today; the campus felt empty, but since it was daytime, Xia Xiaoyu wasn't too scared.
Inside the dormitory, everyone else was busy with something. When they saw Xia Xiaoyu come in, their eyes widened involuntarily.
"Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Xia Xiaoyu asked in confusion.
"Xia Xiaoyu, we were just about to check on you!"
Even though it had only been a day since they last saw her, Tang Jiaying suddenly appeared much more innocent.
"Xia Xiaoyu, are you okay...?"
Today, Xia Xiaoyu looked completely refreshed, leaving the others in the dormitory a bit stunned. Just yesterday, everyone had witnessed her weak state.
"It's fine now..."
Xia Xiaoyu sighed and said, "I'm going to take a nap..."
Indeed, Xia Xiaoyu felt very weak; the events of last night had kept her on edge. Now that she was able to relax, she felt a bit dazed.
Xia Xiaoyu stopped talking, leaving her handbag on the bed, and then she directly collapsed into the soft, cozy blankets, quickly drifting off to sleep.
However, in the corner of the bed against the wall was a pink Pinky Panther...
