The other personalities had all retreated into the mirror world.

That is, into the several ghost stories corresponding to Jiangtan University.

As if worried that someone wouldn't understand, Wang Qi slowly explained, "We can think of these ghost stories as the shadows of Jiangtan University, or... the mirror world corresponding to Jiangtan University."

"The library we just entered is the mirror world of the real library, so the left and right sides are reversed." Wang Qi had also come to the library during the day, so he discovered the secret.

"Yuan Xiaoyi's main personality hasn't disappeared, it's just being suppressed by the Heart-Eating Demon." Jiang Cheng said after thinking, "As long as we can bring the other personalities out of the mirror world, we can awaken Yuan Xiaoyi's main personality."

After a pause, he added, "Any personality will do."

Although Fatty seemed to understand, what did it matter? As long as the doctor understood, he would just follow what the doctor said, and he couldn't go wrong.

Thinking of this, Fatty sighed and said, "It's a pity, Xiao Hui should have been hiding in the reading room before."

According to what Yuan Xiaoyi said, Xiao Hui not only hid in the reading room, but also carried this book with her. Now that the book has appeared, Xiao Hui is probably...

Back in the dormitory, everything was the same as before, except that dawn was coming later and later.

Fatty's sleep quality was consistently good, and he was happily snoring away. On the other hand, Huai Yi seemed to have something on his mind. His eyes were fixed on the window. It was already 9:30 in the morning, but the sky outside was still dark.

The whole campus was so quiet that it seemed like they were the only living people.

Jiang Cheng walked over. "What are you thinking about?"

Huai Yi was stunned, his thoughts interrupted. But after noticing that it was Jiang Cheng, his eyes hesitated for a moment, and finally he said, "It's nothing. I just think this mission is quite strange."

"If you're thinking of something, just say it." Jiang Cheng said, "During this time, besides looking out the window, you've also been stealing glances at him several times. Why?" Jiang Cheng raised his chin, gesturing towards Fatty on the bed.

Huai Yi's eyes flickered. "I..."

As if feeling he couldn't avoid it, Huai Yi simply told the truth. He pursed his lips. "Brother Jiang," he said, looking into Jiang Cheng's eyes, and asked, "Shen Hong... did only the two of you really come this time?"

Jiang Cheng didn't confirm or deny it, he just nodded. "Go on."

"Since we've already brought it up, I'll be blunt." Huai Yi straightened up. "Is that Wang Qi one of your people?"

"No," Jiang Cheng replied.

"Then... did your Shen Hong reach some kind of deal with him in private?" Huai Yi continued to ask, "But you didn't tell me."

"No, we didn't."

Huai Yi's eyes when he looked at Jiang Cheng held doubt. "Really?"

Jiang Cheng nodded. "Really."

Huai Yi frowned, looking at the sleeping Fatty, as if there was something he couldn't understand. After a long while, he muttered to himself, "Then that's strange."

Feeling Jiang Cheng's gaze, Huai Yi began to explain, but his voice was very low, as if he didn't want Fatty to hear. "Brother Jiang, there's something I haven't had a chance to talk to you about alone. Do you remember who was the first to be discovered by the ghost on the fourth floor of the library?"

"Wang Qi." Jiang Cheng recalled, "I heard the sound of him throwing his phone away."

But Huai Yi shook his head, and said mysteriously, "It wasn't Wang Qi, it was Brother Fugui. He was the first person to be discovered by the ghost."

"I wasn't far from him at the time, and I saw it very clearly. The ghost's footprints first appeared near him, and I'm sure they were coming for Brother Fugui."

"But before I could remind him, someone threw a phone over, and then the ghost was lured away." Huai Yi paused, and said cryptically, "The phone was thrown from the history section. Wang Qi was the only one hiding there."

Huai Yi's thinking was very clear. If they weren't connected, why would Wang Qi risk his life to help a teammate he wasn't familiar with?

It didn't make sense.

Jiang Cheng had noticed before that the person named Wang Qi seemed to pay special attention to Fatty. Sometimes he would even explain things very clearly, making it easier for Fatty to understand.

Vaguely, fragmented images floated in his mind, familiar, the colors of black and red intertwined before his eyes.

In the chaos, he clearly saw many faces, but when he got closer, wanting to see them more clearly, they suddenly shattered.

This wasn't the first time this had happened. He remembered Wang Qi once telling him that he seemed to have forgotten a part of his memory, but wasn't he the same?

In a daze, he suddenly remembered what Wu had once told him, that he and it were essentially no different, both pitiful insects living in lies and deception.

But it could help him, help him tear apart the world constructed by this lie.

The premise was... it wanted something.

And that something was hidden deep in his memory.

"Brother Jiang!"

"Brother Jiang!"

...

With a series of low calls, Jiang Cheng gradually came back to his senses. Huai Yi was staring at him, looking very anxious. "Brother Jiang, are you... are you okay?"

"I'm fine..." Jiang Cheng just felt a little tired.

"Just now, the way you looked..."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng looked at Huai Yi and frowned. "What was wrong with the way I looked just now?"

"You looked scary." Huai Yi swallowed, and a hint of fear was revealed in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Cheng. After speaking, he made a simple gesture with his hand. "Just now, your face was covered with veins, and the blood vessels were all bulging out, and... most importantly..." Huai Yi paused and said softly, "Your eyes."

"Your eyes turned... turned blood red, and then you looked at me, but it didn't seem like you. It was... it was another person."

"Brother Jiang." Huai Yi trembled and said, "There's another person inside you. It's..."

His lips moved, but he didn't dare to say it after all, as if saying that guy's name would bring disaster upon himself.

Finally, he reached out and carefully pointed to Jiang Cheng's shadow on the ground.

Jiang Cheng immediately realized that the person he was talking about was Wu!

Could it be... was it him just now?

After a long while, Huai Yi cautiously leaned in and whispered, "Brother Jiang, is the door inside you... is it about to become uncontrollable?"

"What... what are you guys talking about?"

A sudden voice interrupted the conversation between the two. Fatty rubbed his eyes, looking like he had just woken up. "Hey, it's still not dawn? What time is it?"

Jiang Cheng gave Huai Yi a look, and the latter consciously shut his mouth, pretending that nothing had happened, and even greeted Fatty very naturally.

Because the daytime hours were compressed, the morning classes became very short, less than an hour, and even included a recess in between.

But strangely, other than them, no one else, whether students or teachers, felt anything was wrong.

After class, Jiang Cheng went straight to the grove. Yuan Xiaoyi was still waiting for him.
