Nemesis is Coming - C108
I braced myself and after He Xiaotong finished watching that horror movie, I said that I was going to sleep. He Xiaotong sat on the sofa and laughed at me.
I went to the room that He Xiaotong had prepared for me. Lying on the bed, she was unable to fall asleep even after a long time. It was caused by that horror movie.
After an unknown period of time, his eyelids gradually grew heavy. Unknowingly, he fell asleep.
I dreamed again of the woman with the disheveled hair. She was still shouting: Kill them, and you’ll live! If you kill them, you’ll be able to survive!
Was I finally able to see the woman’s face? His eyes were bloodshot. There were also blood tears, and her face was as white as paper, making her already red lips turn even redder.
There were countless black wounds all over her body, and all of them were bubbling with black blood.
I woke up with a start, gasping for breath, and looked around. The room was dark. It should be late at night. My mouth was dry, so I got up and went to get some water.
I went downstairs and drank two glasses of water in the living room before returning to the second floor. Just as he was about to enter the room, he heard He Xiaotong, who was in the neighboring room, scream.
I was shocked, could it be that Modi had an accomplice?
I kicked at He Xiaotong’s door, and with a bang, I broke He Xiaotong’s door.
I immediately rushed in, only to discover that He Xiaotong, who was wearing pajamas, was sitting on the bed, looking at me in surprise. There didn’t seem to be anything dangerous in the surroundings.
She stared at me blankly for a few seconds, then suddenly shouted at me, What are you doing?
I awkwardly said, “You screamed just now, so I rushed in. I thought you were in some danger …”
She said snappily, Not scared to death of that nightmare, almost scared to death of you.
She looked at the door again and said, Go back and rest. I just had a nightmare.
I laughed. I told you to force me to watch a ghost movie with you. You are dreaming.
I was about to go out when she called after me, Hold up my door first.
I had to go back and pick up her chipped door and put it on the doorframe.
From the hole I saw her jump out of bed, rummage through the drawer for a poster, run to the door, and snort at me through the hole. Then he took the poster and stuck it on the door, covering the hole.
I went back to my room and lay down on the bed for a while before falling asleep.
The next morning I was awakened by a sharp knock on the door.
Outside the door, He Xiaotong shouted anxiously: “Yang Xiao, wake up quickly, something’s happened.”
I got up and opened the door. He Xiaotong, who was still knocking on the door, almost knocked on my body.
I asked sleepily, What’s the matter? It was so early in the morning.
He Xiaotong said in panic: This morning, Xiao Ran called me. She said Liang Ziwen is dead.
I asked with my eyes wide open: Wasn’t she still alive yesterday? How did she die?
He Xiaotong shook her head and said, “I’m not too sure either, Yang Ziwen lives in the school’s dormitory. This morning, his roommate called him to wake up for class. However, he did not wake up even after he shouted several times. So she pushed him a few times. However, he discovered that his body was ice-cold. Only now did he flip his body over, only to discover that his face was pale and his seven orifices were bleeding. He was already dead.
I asked doubtfully, You’re sure it’s the pallor and the blood coming out of your orifices.
He Xiaotong shook her head and said: I’m not too sure, but right now, this matter has already stirred up a huge commotion in the school.
I was thinking, if it was just a sudden death, wouldn’t he bleed from his seven orifices? Maybe it was just a school rumor.
He Xiaotong asked me: Could she have entered that haunted house? That was why she died.
When He Xiaotong said this, I felt my scalp go numb. But I feel that Liang Ziwen has always been a person who does not control himself when it comes to living.
I looked at the time. It was just before eight in the morning. But I had to get back to the barracks in advance, so I said, Don’t think too much about it. I don’t think he’s very thin. The spirit is not good, life is not controlled, very likely is sudden death. As for the bleeding from those seven orifices, it was just a rumor.
He Xiaotong did not say anything. Then she continued, I’m going back to the army, so don’t think too much about it.
He Xiaotong still had her head lowered, not saying a word. I just wanted to ask her what was wrong.
She suddenly looked up at me and said, I had a nightmare last night, you know.
She continued: When I called me this morning to tell me about Liang Ziwen’s death, she had mentioned it and had a nightmare. The dream that she told me was exactly the same as the dream that I had.
I felt my whole body go cold as I continued to listen to He Xiaotong.
He Xiaotong continued: We all dreamed of a woman with dishevelled hair.
He Xiaotong continued to speak: “Only by killing them will you all be able to survive, because that woman kept on whispering in my ear. “Only by killing them will you have a way out of this alive …” She kept repeating this to me.
He Xiaotong had finished speaking, and after a long while, I still had not recovered from my shock.
He Xiaotong then asked: Did you dream about that woman?
I wanted to say no. But in fact, I’ve already dreamed of that disheveled woman twice.
I nodded. I did dream, I said.
He Xiaotong became extremely nervous, her voice trembling as she said, “Then do you still think I was overthinking it?”
I shook my head. Too many coincidences.
He Xiaotong nodded.
We walked slowly downstairs, both of us sitting on the sofa without speaking. I don’t know what He Xiaotong is thinking. And I was wondering why all three of them had the same dream.
He Xiaotong suddenly grabbed my hand and stood up, saying: Go to school.
Wait, I said hastily, I’m going back to the army!
She pulled me outside and said, General Han Xifei, I’ll let my father handle this.
I had no choice but to follow her into her sports car. If I didn’t figure this out, I wouldn’t be able to go back to the army. I think we really may have been possessed by evil spirits.
The car drove on, and in a short period of time, they arrived at Luo City University. He Xiaotong parked the car in the car park. The two of us walked towards Teaching Building.
She made a lot of calls as she walked, seemingly wanting to find out more about Liang Ziwen’s true cause of death.
After we arrived at the Teaching Building, we sat on the resting chairs on the first floor for a long time. Xiao Ran walked in from outside the Teaching Building.
She waved towards us, and only then did He Xiaotong see her. She also smiled and waved at her. Little Ran came and sat down in front of us.
He Xiaotong immediately asked: Little Ran, have you asked clearly? Did the others who went to the Ghost Tower have nightmares?
Little Ran nodded with some discomfort on her face and said, “Yes, they all had this dream.”
