INSIDER Chapter 58

Xu Yuan reacted the fastest. He quickly turned his back to the door, then yelled and rushed towards Zhang Cheng beside him. He lowered his head and began to mutter: “What the hell… I can’t see anything… I can’t see anything…”

Everyone else in the dormitory sat stiffly on the edge of their beds, as if their acupoints had been pressed, not moving.

Cheng Zhang was the only one in the dormitory who looked at the small glass on the dormitory door.

Although Lu Chu was prepared for this situation, he was still startled when Zhang Cheng spoke.

At this moment, he and 7 were sitting side by side on the lower bunk of their bed, next to the dormitory door, only two steps away from him. Feeling Lu Chu’s momentary uneasiness, 7 turned his head to look in the direction of the dormitory door and gently held Lu Chu’s hand.

Lu Chu felt relieved and was about to turn his head to look in the direction of the dormitory door, but he heard the frightened Cheng Zhang suddenly pushed Xu Yuan away and shouted, “It’s gone! It’s gone!” After that, Cheng Zhang buried his head in the blanket beside the bed, like an ostrich, his body shaking constantly.

Hearing this, Lu Chu suddenly looked towards the door – there was nothing outside the corridor except darkness.

Before the others recovered from the shock of “there is a head”, they were startled again by Zhang Cheng’s scream. Xu Yuan, who was pushed away, sat on the edge of the bed in a daze with a dull look in his eyes.

“Zheng Zhang, Zhang Zhang—” Lu Chu walked to Zhang Zhang and tried to call him out from the blanket.

But when Zhang Cheng heard Lu Chu’s voice, he did not stop trembling, nor did he get out of the blanket, as if he was possessed by a demon.

At this time, Xu Yuan came to his senses and carefully turned his head to look in the direction of the door. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found nothing. He turned around and began to pull the blanket on Cheng Zhang’s head. He smiled jokingly as he pulled, “You did it on purpose! You tried to scare us! Tell me, was that the head just now the dormitory supervisor?”

The two day students who were temporarily living in Room 318 also felt that Zhang Cheng was trying to scare them after hearing what Xu Yuan said. One of them said to Zhang Cheng viciously, “Are you stupid? Sima’s stuff.”

The other grabbed the man and said, “Calm down and stop making trouble.”

These two people were neither students of Lu Chu’s class nor Xu Yuan’s class. They had never met each other before and were randomly assigned by the school. Lu Chu and his friends thought that these two people would stay in 318 for one night and they would get along peacefully, just like when Lu Chu and Li Bo stayed with others before. They didn’t expect one of them to speak like this.

Xu Yuan frowned when he heard this: “Be careful with your words.”

The man snorted and sat down, but didn’t say anything else.

Lu Chu looked at Zhang Cheng who had his head buried in the blanket, and was sure that he was really terrified and scared, and was not joking.

Lu Chu stopped Xu Yuan from pulling Zhang Cheng out of the blanket and stood beside him. “Zheng Cheng, I’m Lu Chu. Li Bo and Xu Yuan are also with you. There’s nothing in the dormitory now. It’s safe. Come out and open your eyes.”

The charter was trembling and did not move.

Lu Chu continued, “Zheng Zhang, we have to sleep here all night. If you really saw something just now, you should tell us. We can report it to the teacher or find out the reason ourselves. These are all ways to deal with it. You can’t solve any problems by burying your head in the blanket.”

Xu Yuan accidentally touched Zhang Cheng’s exposed arm, and the place where he touched was covered with cold sweat. At this time, he also realized that Zhang Cheng was not joking with them.

The other two people sat aside, forming a clear dividing line between them and Lu Chu and his companions. The one who had insulted Zhang Cheng was crossing his arms, pretending that it was none of his business.

Lu Chuke’s gentle voice sounded again, and he said, “Regulations.”

This time, the charter changed.

He slowly raised his hands, uncovered the blanket covering his head, then raised his head with incredibly slow movements and looked at everyone.

Others were shocked to discover that there was an extra eye on the left side of Zhang Cheng’s face!

The eye was half-closed and curved into a crescent shape, as if smiling.

“Ah!!” Xu Yuan, who was closest to Zhang Cheng, screamed and pulled Lu Chu back.

The two day students who were watching had their eyes wide open. They were so frightened that they couldn’t even make a sound. They could only open their mouths with sweat on their foreheads. In fear, they quickly turned around, opened the dormitory door and ran out. After they ran out of the dormitory, the dormitory door automatically slammed shut with a bang.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan ran to the dormitory door in two steps. Soon, in panic, he found that he could not open the door no matter how hard he tried. No matter how hard he tried, the door did not budge. He was so anxious that he broke out in sweat and started banging on the door with his hands.

7 stood beside Lu Chu, never taking a step back, revealing a protective attitude.

“You guys, what’s wrong?” Seeing everyone’s actions, Cheng Zhang asked curiously, “Didn’t you ask me to get up?”

As he spoke, the eye on his left cheek blinked in time with his voice, giving people a strange feeling of innocence.

Seeing that he couldn’t open the door, Xu Yuan had no choice but to press his back against the door. With a look of fear on his face, he stretched out his hand and shouted loudly to stop Zhang Cheng from moving forward: “Don’t come over here!”

“What… happened?” Zhang Cheng was still immersed in the moment of seeing a head just now. His nerves were tense. Feeling the mysterious atmosphere at the moment, he involuntarily stepped back and leaned on the balcony of the dormitory.

“You’re still asking what happened, you–” Xu Yuan stopped talking abruptly. He stared blankly at Zhang Cheng’s left cheek. The eyes there disappeared in an instant, and there was nothing left, as if the horrific scene they had just seen was just an illusion.

Lu Chu was also surprised. He was sure that an eye had indeed appeared on Zhang Cheng’s face just now.

Zhang Cheng subconsciously walked towards Lu Chu and the others, but was stopped by Xu Yuan again. Xu Yuan said fearfully, “Just stand there and don’t move! Just stand there and talk!”

The charter stopped the action.

Lu Chu’s throat rolled over and he said to Zhang Cheng: “Just now, an eye appeared on your left cheek.”

7 nodded affirmatively.

Zhang Cheng took a deep breath and subconsciously touched his left cheek.

Lu Chu shook his head: “No need to touch it, it’s gone now.”

Zhang Cheng was at a loss. After what happened just now, his nerves were numb: “What… is going on?”

Xu Yuan was also frightened by the unscientific scene just now. His back was still pressed tightly against the dormitory door, his expression was tangled and ugly, and he wanted to cry but had no tears: “You need to ask yourself this… How could we possibly know…”

Lu Chu took a small step forward, still keeping a relatively safe distance from Zhang Cheng, and asked, “Zheng Cheng, you just said there was a head on the door?”

Zhang Cheng nodded with difficulty.

“And then floated away?”

Zhang Cheng opened his mouth, his throat was hoarse: “… Yeah.”

Lu Chu looked straight at him and calmly stated the facts: “Zheng Cheng, the door of the dormitory can’t be opened now, and there are strange things on your face. We need to know what you saw.”

Zhang Cheng glanced at Lu Chu and the other two and said, “One head.”

After a moment, Zhang Cheng added with a trembling voice, “It has no neck, just a human head. It is in the middle of the square glass window of the dormitory, with its eyes wide open, looking at us.”

Xu Yuan felt a chill on his back when he heard this. After a moment, he realized that he was leaning against the door, with the back of his head facing the square glass window. He jumped forward several steps in fear. He stopped when he jumped to the side of Lu Chu and 7. The sound of his heart beating was chaotic, as if it was about to jump out of his throat. He looked back at the glass window. The corridor outside was dark. The two day students had no idea where they had run to. The glass, which had been wiped clean to the point of being almost transparent during the duty, reflected the people standing and confronting each other in the room, which was distorted and weird.

Xu Yuan was shocked and turned back quickly.

Lu Chu frowned as he listened to Zhang Cheng’s description: “What kind of head?”

Zhang Cheng swallowed his saliva, a little sweat ran down his forehead. He closed his eyes and took a break. After a moment, he said, “She was in the backlight, with her hair loose, her face was bruised, her eyes were black, with no whites. You could vaguely tell… it was a little girl.”

Xu Yuan was horrified: “Little girl?”

“Well,” Zhang Cheng wanted to move forward and get closer to Lu Chu and the others to seek a sense of security, but suddenly remembered Xu Yuan’s resistance and fear, so he stopped and stood where he was, and continued: “About twelve or thirteen years old.”

The height of children aged twelve or thirteen is such that even if they stand on tiptoe, their heads will not be level with the square glass of their dormitory door, because this square glass window is designed according to the height of an average adult, in order to make it easier for the dormitory supervisor to check on the dormitories.

So, it is indeed… floating.

“Also,” Zhang Cheng added, “before the head floated away, it said something silently, and I saw the shape of her mouth.”

Lu Chu asked: “What is it?”

Zhang Cheng paused and said, “She grinned and said, ‘Brother, there are two people over here.'”

At that moment, Lu Chu immediately thought of Zheng Wei – Xu Yuan said that Zheng Wei had a younger sister.

The head was floating, and the eyes that appeared on Zhang Cheng’s face might be because of the head. If this “brother” was Zheng Wei, whom Lu Chu had always suspected, then did his sister encounter an accident and become a ghost?

Lu Chu was still thinking more deeply, but Xu Yuan was already shaking with fear at what Zhang Cheng said. He wanted to deceive himself, telling himself that the world was full of science, and that all things related to ghosts and monsters should have scientific basis, and that his eyes were just dazzled. After preparing his mind, he smiled reluctantly and asked Zhang Cheng, “Is today Halloween? What you just said was just to scare us, right?”

Zhang Cheng opened his mouth with difficulty, his words were slurred, he shook his head, his eyes passed through Lu Chu and the other two and fell behind them.

“I’m not lying to you. She is right behind you now.”

Lu Chu smelled a familiar scent.

The author has something to say: My mother enthusiastically invited me to dance square dance with a group of aunts in the evening.

I:”……”

Ten attempts but still refused.
