"Where are we going, Brother Liang?" Wei Keyi's physical strength was very poor. As soon as he ran out of the dormitory building, he began to feel dizzy and his lungs ached.

It was already late at night and the entire playground was pitch black, with only a few dim street lights shining.

Wei Keyi was not paying attention for a moment and was tripped by an obstacle on the road, and fell to the ground with a thud. He tried to stand up and fumble around on the ground, but he felt something unusual on his hands, as if he touched a lot of slippery liquid.

By the time he reacted, the pungent smell of blood had already penetrated his nostrils.

Zhang Chunliang turned on the light of his mobile phone to help him illuminate the obstacles ahead.

——It was a man lying on the ground, wearing only a pair of shorts. He seemed to have run away from the dormitory. There were several deep scars on his naked back from being chopped by someone, and the bone was visible. Under the light of the flashlight, the whole man was pale.

Wei Keyi's half body was covered in blood. He made a disgusted "tsk" sound and quickly got up.

He stepped forward and used his foot to turn the stiff body over.

"This is not a player." Wei Keyi looked at him for a moment and answered affirmatively, "I saw him on the weekly list of this exam. He was ranked in the bottom 100."

"It's not safe here, we have to leave." Zhang Chunliang turned off the light on his mobile phone. The two of them were now standing under the light, surrounded by hideous night shadows.

He always felt that there were many people secretly watching them at this moment.

"Where else can we go?" Wei Keyi said with a bitter face.

Zhang Chunliang looked at the corpse on the ground seriously, thought for a moment, and walked back decisively.

"Do you want to live? Hurry--" Wei Keyi's face turned pale, and he took small steps to catch up with Zhang Chunliang.

"Let's go back to the dormitory." Zhang Chunliang said to himself, "It's safe there."

Wei Keyi closed his mouth somewhat devastated and said nothing.

He turned his head and looked back. Something seemed to be shaking in the darkness not far away. There was no telling how many unknown dangers there were in this school. Exploring in the dark without knowing much about this school was tantamount to seeking death.

He gritted his teeth and followed Zhang Chunliang.

The entire dormitory corridor was still the same as before, with all the dormitory doors wide open and no one inside.

The smoke from the smoke bomb had dissipated, and their dormitory was in a mess, with the iron door completely broken.

"We sleep here, anyone can come in and kick us."

Wei Keyi took off his dirty clothes, casually washed the blood off his hands, and lay down on the bed muttering.

Zhang Chunliang moved a few tables to the door and blocked the doorway vertically: "Hold on, I'll find someone to fix it tomorrow."

"Come on, with our scores, we are just garbage in school. How could they be so kind as to repair the door for garbage?" Wei Keyi sneered, obviously not holding out any hope.

Zhang Chunliang said nothing and blocked the door tightly.

Wei Keyi lay on the bed, watching his movements quietly. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Brother Liang, how do you know the dormitory is safe?"

"Just now, the man wearing the wolf mask chopped my hand." Zhang Chunliang raised his right hand and shook it at him, saying, "But I was not injured."

The tattooed young man swung his knife too quickly, and even through the fog, Zhang Chunliang did not have time to dodge and was hit on his right hand. But when he ran out of the dormitory building, he found that his right hand was not injured at all.

Wei Keyi's eyes moved, as if he understood something.

"Just now, we couldn't control the masked man. It's very likely not because he was too strong, but because the rules restricted us from attacking him." Zhang Chunliang paused and added, "He couldn't hurt us either."

"Because our results haven't come out yet, we are now in the novice protection period." Wei Keyi said thoughtfully, "And from what the masked man said just now, he didn't come here to find us. He should be here to hunt down other people."

Zhang Chunliang sighed slightly and lay back on his bed. He had already foreseen his dark school life. The only thing he could do now was to fall asleep as quickly as possible and conserve his energy.

Zhang Chunliang frowned with a headache and turned over in annoyance.

The dormitory was quiet and no sound was made.

He closed his eyes, slowed his breathing, reached gently into the backpack next to his pillow, and slowly pulled out a baseball bat.

This is a self-defense item of his. It only cost ten points, which is a great deal.

Zhang Chunliang breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly jumped out of bed and rushed towards the bunk above him.

"Ahhh-"

A shrill scream came from the messy quilt on the upper bunk.

I saw a pair of wildly shaking arms emerging from the quilt of the upper bunk, accompanied by a desperate plea for mercy: "Don't hit me... Please, don't hit me...!"

Zhang Chunliang paused and retracted the stick.

A bruised head poked out from the dirty quilt on the upper bunk, but his originally handsome features could still be vaguely seen.

"I'm sorry..." The boy spoke unclearly, as if he had bitten his tongue, "I really have nowhere to go. They will kill me..."

Wei Keyi sighed tiredly: "Can I get a good night's sleep?"

The boy shrank back in fear and whispered again, "I'm sorry..."

This person was the boy who was bullied by a group of people in the cafeteria.

Tonight, Zhang Chunliang heard him crying in the bathroom, and thought that he was trying to avoid being hunted down by the tattooed and masked man.

"They usually don't return to places they've already checked..." The boy was very worried about being kicked out, so he quickly told them what he knew, "I'll be very quiet, they don't know I'm here."

"They?" Zhang Chunliang put away the baseball bat and asked.

"They are a group that specializes in hunting down students with poor test scores at night." The boy started to cry as he spoke. "The learning pace here is too fast. I can't keep up. I always fail the exams."

"The teachers don't care?" Wei Keyi yawned and asked lazily. Then, he snorted and chuckled as if he thought of something.

"No one cares about me, no one cares." The boy's nosebleed was wiped all over his face by his tears. "It wasn't like this before. Before, they would just beat me, drown me, and tear up my homework books when they bullied me. Now it's getting more and more excessive... I don't know when they started wanting to kill people."

He seemed to want to cry out loud, but was afraid of attracting pursuers, so he held his breath tightly and looked at Zhang Chunliang with pleading eyes: "Just wait until tomorrow, I will leave as soon as the morning self-study begins, they will only come out after 10 o'clock in the evening..."

"Go to sleep." Zhang Chunliang didn't say anything and lay back on his bed. "Go wash your face."

The boy agreed and obediently climbed down from the bed. Without his weight, the flimsy bed began to creak again.

Zhang Chunliang blinked his eyes tiredly and fell asleep to the rustling sound of the boy washing his face.
