Warm liquid splashed onto my face, and I saw Wu Yuqi's right hand rolling to my feet.

My hand trembled, and the knife fell down.

Next to me, Luo Mengying and the others screamed and huddled together.

"Lin Bao, are you crazy..." Zhang Junhan stared at me in disbelief.

"I'm not crazy. There's no way to save Wu Yuqi in that state. Since there's a glimmer of hope, I don't want to die!"

I trembled all over, looked up at Zhang Junhan, and gritted my teeth.

"I agree, Lin Bao. If there's a chance to live, why not fight for it!"

Chen Taotao resolutely walked over, picking up the knife on the ground and decisively bringing it down.

But Chen Taotao's strength was too weak, and she didn't break Wu Yuqi's bones.

Zhang Junhan and Luo Mengying quickly went over to help.

Finally, the five of us, at the entrance of the restroom, successfully cut off Wu Yuqi's limbs and tongue.

After everything was done, Song Xin's phone rang, signaling a countdown of fourteen minutes.

We held our breaths, filled with unease and fear, silently waiting.

We waited for more than a minute, and nothing happened. Chen Taotao couldn't help but sob.

Then the rest of us couldn't hold it any longer and burst into tears.

Perhaps we were happy to have saved our own lives, or perhaps we were sad for cruelly severing our roommate's limbs...

Song Xin hugged me, whispering in my ear, "Bao, I feel unforgivable."

I reached out and gently patted her back. "You're not wrong. I know you did it for us."

Song Xin sat up straight, looking at me in disbelief. "You know?"

I nodded gently.

I've known Song Xin since we were young, how could I not understand her?

She always gets nervous when she lies, just like she did just now.

So I knew that when she saw Wu Yuqi, she didn't feel any breath.

But at that time, we were in chaos and fear, and no one remembered these things.

Song Xin fabricated the lie that Wu Yuqi might turn into something terrible to alleviate our guilt and make us believe it.

Because she knew that as long as someone died in the manner of Luo Mengying's story, it would be considered a punishment.

That way, we could survive.

But in the end, she couldn't bring herself to do it, so I decided to take action.

Human nature is always self-serving. As long as I took the lead, those who wanted to live would naturally follow...

Fortunately, we succeeded.

The lights in the dorm suddenly went out, and our relieved hearts were filled with tension again.

But soon, the lights came back on.

On the back of the dormitory door, another note appeared.

This time the note had more words, and it said:

"The rules have been successfully changed. Scary stories are allowed in the dormitory, but each person is limited to telling one."

"Before telling six scary stories, leaving the dormitory is not allowed."
