Chapter 15 Waiting for Us

Before Fatty could speak, Wen Liangshan, with a mournful face and trembling legs, said, "Jiang, whoever it is, let's not go back. Preserving our lives... preserving our lives is the priority!"

If Jiang Cheng hadn't pulled him back just now, he knew he would have been finished, so he didn't want to see Jiang Cheng take risks.

Huai Yi, running on the far right, also panted and said, "Maybe it's an illusion. There's something strange about that dissection room. What we saw before must have happened many years ago. Just now was just a reenactment."

Their attitudes were clear: there was no need to risk their lives for a possible result, especially since this result was only discovered by Fatty alone, making it very unlikely.

If the doctor had said it, perhaps everyone would have believed it.

Hearing Huai Yi and Wen Liangshan say this, Fatty closed his slightly opened mouth again, and he fell into self-doubt.

If there really was such a special girl, why was he the only one who saw her?

Huai Yi and the others were one thing, but even the doctor hadn't noticed.

He didn't think he was anything special compared to everyone else.

But what he didn't expect was that Jiang Cheng, without even thinking, immediately turned his head and asked, "Fatty, are you sure?"

"I..." Fatty paused, then explained, "Doctor, I know it sounds strange, but it's really like that. I don't know how to explain it, but it's not that I discovered her, it's that she discovered me."

"I just felt someone was watching me, and that gaze... that gaze was very special. I can't explain what was so special about it. I turned my head because I sensed that gaze, and then I saw her. She was like she suddenly appeared there."

"She was standing among the students, staring at me. I could feel that she seemed to have something to say to me. She was asking me... asking me... she was asking me for help. She seemed to know that only I could see her!" Fatty paused several times, his voice getting softer as he spoke, as if he himself found it unbelievable.

"I know you might not like to hear this, but if I were that girl, even if I was asking for help, I would look for Jiang, not you, really!" Wen Liangshan had no malice towards Fatty; he was just being realistic and didn't want to see Jiang Cheng go back to his death.

Huai Yi's tone was more tactful, but the general meaning was the same, and his suspicion was reasonable. This was a ghost's trick, the purpose was to lure them back to their deaths.

At this time, the group had already run past the corridor and arrived at the 3rd floor. Further down, they would soon reach the gate.

Hearing Wen Liangshan and Huai Yi's words, Fatty also felt uncomfortable, not because of their doubts, but because he had been deceived by the ghost and almost led the doctor back to his death.

Wen Liangshan wanted to add a few more words, but before he could open his mouth...

"I didn't ask you!" Jiang Cheng's voice made him shut up immediately, then he looked at Fatty, his tone much softer: "Fatty, don't have any worries, just tell me how you feel in your heart."

After a moment, Fatty gritted his teeth, "Doctor, I'm sure I didn't see it wrong, there is a special girl in there! I even remember her face!"

"You help me lure the ghost away, and I'll go back and find her myself!" The expression on Fatty's face when he said this was like a different person. He clenched his fists, and faint blue veins appeared on his neck.

The contrast in temperament couldn't help but make Huai Yi look sideways.

He suddenly realized that although this Fatty usually seemed mediocre, he was essentially a core member of Crimson Depth, just like Jiang Cheng.

That was a group of rumored bloodthirsty monsters.

"Fatty," Huai Yi immediately changed his attitude, his tone becoming polite: "Don't get excited, we..."

Suddenly, a hand grabbed his arm. Huai Yi's body trembled, and he turned his head to find it was Jiang Cheng.

"Take them away, don't worry about anyone on the way." Jiang Cheng said quickly, "Be quick, find the door and leave immediately. Although the time is up, I think 12:44 is just the time when the Ghost Face Old Woman revives and starts killing people. As long as we leave the building before she catches us, we'll be fine."

"What about you?" Huai Yi asked in horror.

"I'm going back to find Xiao Ting." Jiang Cheng said after releasing his arm, "I believe his feelings, that Xiao Ting is still alive, waiting for us in the dissection room."

"If something happens to me, remember to go to Yuan Xiaoyi for the next clue."

After speaking, Jiang Cheng rushed into the darkness at the corner of the corridor alone.

Seeing this, Fatty followed without saying a word. Wen Liangshan also wanted to follow, but Huai Yi grabbed him, "They're going to find someone, what are you going for!"

Wen Liangshan said with a bitter face, "I just think Jiang is pretty reliable, the probability of surviving by clinging to him is higher!"

"Aren't you going?" Wen Liangshan looked at Huai Yi, seeming a little surprised.

The sound of footsteps chasing them behind them was getting closer and closer, not the sound of normal running, but the rustling sound of countless tentacles wriggling.

Huai Yi couldn't figure out what it was.

"It's useless for us to go, if he..." Huai Yi was about to say that if he couldn't solve it, it would be useless for them to go, but Fatty's face suddenly appeared in his mind, so he changed his words and said, "If they can't solve it, it's useless for us to go."

"Then what do we do now? Do we leave here from the gate?" Wen Liangshan asked, although he was afraid of death, he was also worried that Jiang Cheng and Fatty were moths flying into the flame, never to return.

If possible, he also wanted to do something.

The rustling sound behind them was getting closer and closer, like a person who had just learned to walk, gradually familiarizing himself with his body, and slowly speeding up.

"We'll help them hold this thing back." Huai Yi also hardened his heart.

Wen Liangshan also gritted his teeth, "Okay."

But perhaps they didn't expect that people's courage comes quickly and goes even faster. The moment they saw the true face of the guy chasing behind them, all their courage vanished.

The two turned around and ran, not in circles, but directly down the stairs, towards the gate.

The speed was so fast that it almost created afterimages. From a distance, it looked like people were running in front, and their souls were chasing behind.

"Holy crap!" Wen Liangshan jumped directly from the stairs, "What the hell is this thing?"

"Don't know!"

They didn't dare to look closely either. Just one glance at that thing was enough.

Following them, relentlessly chasing them, was a monster completely pieced together from severed limbs, as tall as 3 meters, or even 4 meters.

It was covered with dense, severed limbs, countless pale hands and feet waving like a giant spider, and in the middle of the countless hands and feet was Shi Xiaoya's head.

But at this moment, Shi Xiaoya's head had been turned 180 degrees, revealing the face hidden in her hair.

The face of an old woman.

It was covered with scarlet wrinkles, and with movement, the wrinkles actually cracked slowly, revealing the bloody flesh inside, opening and closing, like gills breathing.

In the gaps between the hands and feet, you could still see blood-stained, tattered white coats.
