[BL] I Wasn't Born Lucky (Unlimited Flow)

Chapter 9

The sudden appearance of this voice surprised everyone and they immediately looked up. They saw a person with small sideburns standing at the door, looking at them greedily. She smiled with satisfaction and clapped to applaud Qian Yiwei.

This person appearing at the door caused Zheng Yi to take three steps back until he hit the wall. He even glanced at the window, wondering if he would be disabled or dead if he jumped from the fourth floor.

Qian Yiwei still didn't realize the situation. He was in a state where his memory was still modified and wasn't aware of the wrongness of the sideburns person. He ignored Zheng Yi's strange behaviour as he spoke to the sideburns person in a dissatisfied manner. "Are you mocking me?"

The other person didn't look at him but stared straight at Xiao Li, or the candle in Xiao Li's hand.

The black-haired teenager had already lit the candle. The blue fire was the brightest light source in the bedroom. Under the illumination of the candlelight, Qian Yiwei's expression gradually changed from anger to ignorance and eventually becoming fear as he took a step back.

The sideburns person had no intention of moving forward thanks to the candlelight. She stood there at the door, staring at them like a beast. There was a violent storm outside that blew the curtains up high. The candlelight swayed, elongating the shadow of the sideburns person on the wall.

"Sherlock, he is waiting!" Seeing that the disguised ghost had no intention of going forward, Qian Yiwei felt a bit relieved but he soon reacted to the ghost's intentions and hurriedly shouted the name of the teenager. "Once the candle burns out, she can kill us without any hindrance!"

Xiao Li handed the diary back to Qian Yiwei and carried the candle towards the door.

Qian Yiwei was stunned for a second. This was indeed the only way but he didn't expect Sherlock to be so decisive. After all, going out through the door was equivalent to passing by the ghost which required a high psychological quality to do. The young man looked at the teenager's side profile with a complicated expression before following.

The ghost showed an uncomfortable expression at the approach of the candle and took two steps back. However, she still stared at them closely. The distance was so close that when they walked out the dormitory door, Qian Yiwei and Zheng Yi could even see the blood in the other person's eyes and couldn't help being surprised.

Compared to their shivering, Xiao Li was much calmer. The black-haired teenager turned to look at the ghost and approached with the candle in his right hand. Sure enough, the ghost moved a bit further away and Xiao Li's lips curved, a hint of mischief flashing across his face. The smile was fleeting and he returned to his original appearance before the other two people could find it.

Xiao Li held a candle and wanted to go downstairs but there was a burst of footsteps from the chaotic third floor staircase. Listening to the sound, it wasn't one person but a group of people. The masters of the footsteps appeared. They were wearing the uniforms of the Nandu Girls' High School and all had pale faces and extremely stiff physiques. They came up the stairs from the third floor, staring at Xiao Li and the sideburns ghost.

The moment he saw this, Zheng Yi felt his legs soften and he had to hold the wall to stay upright. Qian Yiwei was just as frightened but he was calm. Only his voice slightly trembled as he told Xiao Li, "I... we'll go upstairs."

The proximity of the group of ghosts meant the candle burned faster and faster. The remaining body of the candle became shorter and the candlelight swayed in the dark corridor, the darkness in the distance looking like dripping ink.

Xiao Li looked at the malicious eyes of the sideburns ghost and all the clothes from this school passed through his mind. He didn't hesitate and went upstairs.
