From now on, today counts as the first day.

Zhou Yiqiang and Huang Pang went to the library.

Xiao Ze and Tao Ran, who originally planned to skip class together, reluctantly went to class.

As for me, I decided to go to the self-study room with Sun Huawen to gather information.

【The students in the self-study room may not be normal.】

Before entering the self-study room, Sun Huawen reminded me.

The self-study room was lively, everyone was chattering, some even brought melon seeds and peanuts, like they were having a tea party.

Everyone here, including myself, had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation.

"In seven days, as long as we follow the rules, nothing bad will happen." A boy with thick-frame glasses spoke up.

"It's not that simple." A girl with a high ponytail, who seemed to be good at English, chimed in.

Sun Huawen also joined the discussion: "Right now, we know of three threats: the teachers, the dorm checkers, and the student council."

"Obviously, there are also unknown threats." A boy wearing a blue baseball cap said, "My name is Tang Zhen."

We introduced ourselves to each other.

The boy with glasses was named Li Yun, and the girl was named Gao Tiantian.

"The current problem is, the library, self-study room, and dorm are safe, so why do we need to hide in the library, self-study room, and dorm? What are we avoiding?" Sun Huawen was as straightforward as ever.

Li Yun gasped, "I remembered!"

"What did you remember?" I asked.

"The dead classmate. I just saw my classmate on the way here, but he clearly died in the classroom."

Sun Huawen immediately asked, "Did he attack anyone?"

Li Yun shook his head.

We fell into silence.

Why were the deceased appearing unharmed again? What was their purpose?

At this moment, a new student walked into the self-study room, and when I saw his face, my body temperature suddenly dropped.

It was the boy who was watching Douyin in front of me in the previous class!

How could he be here?

I saw him sit in an empty seat in the front row, chatting with other students as if nothing was wrong.

I looked at Sun Huawen, who furrowed his brow, clearly noticing the person too.

【The students in the self-study room may not be normal.】

This sentence echoed in my mind again.

I vaguely came to a conclusion in my heart: can dead people pose a threat to the living?

But their presence certainly had meaning.

So, what was the purpose of them appearing around us?

"I have an immature conclusion," Tang Zhen said, "Dead people won't directly kill, so they are likely to indirectly kill by some means."

"I agree with Tang Zhen." Sun Huawen nodded.

Upon hearing Tang Zhen's words, I got goosebumps.

【Dead people like to indirectly kill.】

"On the first day, the majority of people in the self-study room are still normal. As time goes on, the less meaningful the communication in the self-study room becomes. Eventually, I think most of the people in the self-study room won't be trustworthy." Gao Tiantian suggested, "How about we come up with our own questions, and next time we meet, we ask each other. If someone can't answer, they are the spy, and we will stop communicating. What do you think?"

"Can you guarantee that memory is lost after death?" I asked in return.

"Go find out about that guy." Sun Huawen gave me a look.

Clearly, that guy referred to the one who was watching Douyin in front of me in the previous class.

Me? Investigate the dead? No way!

"I'm scared."

"It's okay, this is the self-study room."

That's right.

【The self-study room is safe.】

I plucked up the courage and walked up to that boy.

"Br...brother, can I ask you something?"

"What's up? Just ask." That guy seemed perfectly normal.

I felt relieved and asked, "What class did you have in the previous lesson?"

"University Physics."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome, come again next time."

Forget it, I don't want to see you again.

I went back to my seat and told Sun Huawen and others what happened.

It can now be roughly determined that the memories of the dead are disordered.

So, Gao Tiantian gave us three questions.

1: School's No.3 canteen has good Dudong, what do you all like to eat there?

My answer should be: white radish.

Sun Huawen's answer should be: cola.

Gao Tiantian's answer should be: rose.

Tang Zhen's answer should be: basketball.

Li Yun's answer should be: No.3 canteen doesn't have Dudong.

2: What movies have you all watched recently?

My answer should be: Do you have a napkin?

Sun Huawen's answer should be: There are no crows in the school.

Gao Tiantian's answer should be: "Hamlet".

Tang Zhen's answer should be: I quite like eating broccoli.

Li Yun's answer should be: Stop pretending to be elegant.

3: What time do you usually go to bed at night?

My answer should be: "I can't sleep at night."

Sun Huawen's answer should be: Turn off the light and sleep.

Gao Tiantian's answer should be: I've been on a health kick recently.

Tang Zhen's answer should be: Humans need to sleep?

Li Yun's answer should be: At eleven thirty at night.

Glancing at the time, almost an hour had passed, and people in the self-study room had started to leave.

"This place is not suitable for a long stay, take care everyone."

I and Sun Huawen left the self-study room.
