After the short-haired woman apologized, she stopped talking and listened carefully to something.
She was listening to the sounds around her.
The dim light of the mobile phone suddenly went out after no one touched the screen for a long time.
In the darkness, the short-haired woman moved!
She raised her hand and opened the phone screen in her hand.
Huanxiao noticed that her screensaver was a photo, or a group photo of several girls standing together, everyone smiling brightly, like the smile of a sunflower.
The short-haired woman's face illuminated by the light was cast into a heavy shadow, like a ghostly face that suddenly appeared.
She didn't ask Huan Xiao to do anything, but asked softly:
"Xiaohuan, did you hear that?"
"What?" Huanxiao leaned his back against the wall next to him, feeling quite comfortable sitting here.
The short-haired woman replied: "Listen, there are footsteps."
Hearing this, Huan Xiao listened carefully.
"Tap, step, step"
Light footsteps came from the top of the building, not loud.
The sound of footsteps, like a reminder, was approaching the top of the small warehouse.
If the short-haired woman hadn't warned her, Huanxiao would have thought it was the sound of the wind.
The reason why she was so careless was because she knew that even if the ghost found her, nothing would happen to her.
But what surprised her was that the short-haired woman could actually do two things at once, talking to her while paying attention to the movements on the rooftop.
"Yes, I heard it." Huanxiao nodded.
It sounds like it's either human or ghost.
Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for people to walk around at the risk of being found by ghosts.
But if the student ghost who passed through the iron gate walked onto the rooftop again, then there would be a problem.
What is the reason that makes a ghost that has left suddenly return? Obviously there should be no one on the rooftop now, so why is it going back to the rooftop?
"Bang!"
Suddenly, there was the sound of the iron barrels being moved above the small warehouse.
Something is trying to move the barrel!
If the iron bucket is removed, the existence of Huan Xiao and the two men will definitely be discovered.
Now you can open the door and escape, maybe there will be a glimmer of hope.
But Huanxiao didn't do this, and the short-haired woman couldn't drag her injured leg away.
At this time, the short-haired woman next to him suddenly spoke.
She said in a small voice:
"The ghost seems to have gone to the rooftop. Fortunately, we secretly left the rooftop and went to the abandoned classroom next to it. Otherwise, we would have been caught by it."
Her words made no sense, but the sound of moving iron buckets above stopped.
A very small gap appeared in the opening of the square, and something black could be faintly seen moving around outside.
Huanxiao looked up and did not ask why the short-haired woman said such strange things.
"Tap, step, step"
Footsteps sounded overhead again, gradually getting further away...
Upon hearing this movement, the short-haired woman's eyes, originally full of fear and despair, burst into life.
She continued talking to herself and said:
"It's over, it seems to be coming. Hide quickly. If we hide in that place, we won't be able to see it even if it comes in."
As she spoke, she raised her hand to sign for silence to Huan Xiao, and then lowered her head to type on her phone.
Ten seconds later, a text quickly appeared on the phone.
The short-haired woman showed Huan Xiao the words on her phone:
[I'm sorry for letting you take the risk to find Teacher Li just now, Xiaohuan. I wanted to stand up so much that I forgot how much courage and luck it took to bring Teacher Li. If you are not careful, you will be caught by the ghost. , I admit that I was too selfish and did not consider your life and death. I hope you can forgive me]
She only stayed still in the air for two seconds before taking the phone back.
Regardless of whether Huan Xiao finished reading it or not, he couldn’t wait to continue typing:
[Let’s work together to survive until three o’clock tomorrow. I’ll figure it out and you’ll be my legs.
I know how ghosts find people. They know where we are by relying on what people say. From now on, we should not tell our true location. We can escape danger by tricking ghosts away]
Huan Xiao finished reading it quickly.
She leaned her head against the wall, treating the place as if it were her home.
The reasoning of the short-haired woman is probably true.
Because, after the short-haired girl whispered to herself, the ghost really turned around and left.
It can be seen that ghosts can hear nearby sounds, but they seem to be unable to determine their specific location. They can only rely on the content of the sounds to distinguish where people are hiding.
In this case, it will be very beneficial to the living people hiding in the school.
As long as you know this, you can deliberately lure the ghost to the wrong place, survive for a few hours, and successfully escape.
This is a reasoning that requires carefulness and boldness to complete.
Even if there was a little hesitation, the short-haired woman would have been killed by the ghost coming down from the rooftop.
But the short-haired girl still mustered up her courage and took the gamble without hesitation.
Obviously, she seems to have won the bet, which is a 'gamble' that she can be proud of.
Finding that Huanxiao didn't speak, the short-haired girl could only continue to delay the ghost's time, "I heard it, hide inside quickly, the ghost is coming."
Talking like this can confuse ghosts and make them think that she is near them.
In this way, the ghost will definitely stay in the classroom and rummage around looking for her, leaving enough time for her to communicate with Huanxiao.
The short-haired woman typed quickly on her hands.
[Don’t hesitate. Now, take me away from here. I can find the ghost’s weakness. Doesn’t that mean I’m smarter than you? Only if I am here can you survive]
She was very anxious. The iron barrels above had been moved away, and their position might be exposed. If...
Wait, has the lighting in the warehouse changed?
When she was typing just now, she could still see the light appearing on the ceiling from the corner of her eye, but now it was completely dark.
All this hinted to her that the gap above——
It's blocked by something!
The hand of the short-haired woman who was typing stopped, and a cold sweat broke out on her back.
Her heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to burst out of her chest.
"Plop" "Plop"
The loud heartbeat almost rang in her ears, taking away all her attention and making her forget to carefully observe the movements on the rooftop.
Her heart was beating so fast, she felt her breathing became rapid, and her brain went blank for a moment.
Is there a ghost on top of her head?
Now, what is that blocking the light up there?
The short-haired woman's face turned pale, and her hand holding the phone was almost unsteady.
But maybe it's an illusion? She might have seen it wrong. People often see wrongly when they are nervous, right?
Taking courage in her heart, she was not going to escape.
So, she looked up with difficulty. When she saw the gap, the short-haired woman felt that her heartbeat almost stopped...
The dark sky outside is very dark and calm.
There are no people and no ghosts.
Nothing appeared within the area of the square. It was a false alarm for her.
The short-haired woman was so frightened that she almost stopped thinking. Her mind relaxed instantly. She recovered and realized that she was covered in sticky sweat because of the fear just now.
The cold air came in through the crack in the door, making her feel the chill and couldn't help but shiver.
She felt relaxed, and just when she was about to hand the phone with the typed words to Huan Xiao and ask Huan Xiao to take her out of here, she suddenly froze.
She recalled the scene she saw when she looked up just now, and her expression turned ugly again.
Sky? Why can she see the sky!
Didn't an inconspicuous gap appear on it before?
Why, now there is a completely unobstructed square gap...Who moved the iron barrel?
She didn't hear any movement at all!
Looking up again, the short-haired woman looked up sharply.
A dark head appeared on the roof.
