In the middle of the night, Tong Xiaosong woke up to a murmuring sound.
He initially thought he was dreaming, but even after turning over, the murmuring persisted.
“Ouija, Ouija, come quickly, Ouija, Ouija, come quickly…”
Tong Xiaosong abruptly opened his eyes.
The next moment, the light came on.
Wu Mabo jumped down from the upper bunk and lifted the blanket off Lei Haoyu.
Tong Xiaosong sat up, and below, Wen Dong also jumped down.
Lei Haoyu had blood stains on his fingertips, pressing them onto the Ouija board with a piece of paper underneath, revealing written words.
To ensure visibility, he even placed a wireless night light.
Wu Mabo glared angrily at him, “Are you fucking insane?!”
Lei Haoyu smirked maliciously, triumphantly challenging Wu Mabo with a raised chin.
Wu Mabo clenched his fist, and just as tension mounted, the light suddenly went out with a snap.
Everyone was momentarily stunned. Wu Mabo turned uncertainly and asked, “Dongzi? Did you turn off the light?”
“I’m right beside you,” Wen Dong replied, trying to remain calm. “I didn’t turn off the light.”
Lei Haoyu hesitated for a moment and sneered, “Don’t try to scare me. I’ve played this eight hundred times, and never once did I really summon a ghost…”
Knock, knock, knock.
A knocking sound echoed, unusually abrupt in the quiet night.
Everyone’s nerves tensed.

“Tsk, are you trying to scare me on purpose?” Lei Haoyu got up to open the door, muttering, “Do you think I’m still a child?”

Lei Haoyu’s voice abruptly stopped.
Because the door was opened wide, everyone saw what was outside.
It was a corpse, with its head shattered and facing downward, as if it had been violently thrown. The strong smell of blood and decay hit them immediately.
Wen Dong reacted exceptionally quickly, rushing forward to slam the door shut with a resounding bang and locking it in one smooth motion.
However, it seemed too late; blood began to seep into the room through the crack in the door.
Wen Dong took a sharp breath, slowly stepping back.
Lei Haoyu quickly retreated to the farthest corner, his expression filled with horror. “Wha-wha-wha-what the fuck is that!”
Wu Mabo took a deep breath, resisting the urge to strangle Lei Haoyu. He gritted his teeth and said, “It’s the ghost you summoned. Don’t you recognize it?”
Tong Xiaosong snapped out of his shock, hurriedly retrieving the necklace from Zhi Xian’s sleepwear and holding it in his hand. He stood up and joined the others.
Suddenly, the slowly flowing blood stopped.
The next moment, a strange howl echoed from outside.
Following that, the blood inside the room vanished.
Before everyone could heave a sigh of relief, the knocking on the door resumed.
Three distinct knocks, one after the other.
Knock, knock, knock.
In the dormitory, no one dared to even breathe, staring silently at the door.
“It’s me! Open the door.”
Lei Haoyu didn’t recognize this voice, but Wu Mabo, Wen Dong, and Tong Xiaosong were particularly familiar with it—it was Ke Lin’s voice.
Wu Mabo asked in confusion, “Ke Lin?”
Tong Xiaosong stared blankly, “It sounds like him.”
Ke Lin’s voice echoed again, “Dongzi, Da Bo, Tong Xiaosong, open the door!”
Lei Haoyu asked hesitantly, “Do you guys know him?”
Wen Dong stepped forward, unlocked the door, and opened it.
Outside stood Ke Lin, but he appeared as he did when he passed away, wearing only underwear, soaking wet, with a grayish pallor and visible corpse spots.
Lei Haoyu stared at Ke Lin, took two desperate breaths, emitted a scream resembling that of a woman, and fainted on the spot.
Wu Mabo looked at the unconscious Lei Haoyu and muttered, “Although it’s scary, I’m thrilled. He’s truly my brother…”
Tong Xiaosong: …
Outside the door, Ke Lin frowned, glanced inside, and asked in confusion, “Who is that? The new roommate? How could he be such a scaredy-cat?”
Hearing this, Wen Dong sighed in relief and asked, “Why are you back? What about the thing outside the door just now?”
“Still…” Ke Lin walked into the room. “Fortunately, I came back. Why are you still playing ghost games? Not satisfied yet, or do you want to join me?”
As he spoke, the light suddenly turned on. With the light, Ke Lin instantly transformed. He wore a brand-new casual outfit and sneakers, standing before everyone with a refreshing appearance.
Just like in the past when returning to the dorm, he casually closed the door.
“That thing just now frightened me. Luckily, I have some merits on me, so I made it vanish into thin air. What’s going on with you guys?” Ke Lin took a deep breath.
“It’s a long story,” Wu Mabo said, “Da Lin, you don’t know, but we missed you a lot.”
Ke Lin smiled shyly, “I heard everything you said on the bridge. I couldn’t accept the truth at that time, so I didn’t come out to meet you.”
Tong Xiaosong stared blankly at Ke Lin and murmured, “You’re back, that’s great.”
Ke Lin smiled and said, “Well, I just came back to see you. I still have to leave soon. I’m much more comfortable now than you guys.”
Wen Dong asked, “Leave? Are you going to be reincarnated? Or where are you going? Do you still feel cold now?”
“Not cold anymore.” Ke Lin smiled happily. “I’m not being reincarnated. I just need to go home. I didn’t save those six brats in vain; their parents have amazing backgrounds! They are grateful and believe in karma. Because I saved their children and died, they’ve been very kind to my parents! My parents are now quite impressive, although they are still a bit sad. But I believe everything will pass. They told me that they plan to undergo in vitro fertilization after this, aiming to have more children and make my parents lively so they won’t be lonely in their old age. As for me…”
He smiled on his face, “They enshrined me, and I’ve received a lot of merits. Although I can’t appear in front of them, I can’t be like a living person, but I can protect them from the shadows. I am now a big mascot. With my protection, they will have good luck. After my parents pass away, I will leave with them.”
Wen Dong expressed concern, “You… suffered a lot.”
“What suffering?” Ke Lin couldn’t help laughing, “I’m enjoying myself. I don’t need to do anything now. They offer plenty of sacrifices, and I have everything—eating, drinking, playing, having fun. When I’m not happy, I can even blow cold wind on people’s necks. Do you want to give it a try?”
Everyone:…
Ke Lin continued, “But what I look forward to the most is the upcoming brothers and sisters. Since they are test-tube babies, we can have a few more. My mom is being treated exceptionally well. She only needs to work hard for another year, and there will be several cute kids. By then, with babysitters and postpartum caregivers, they won’t worry about food and drink. They won’t have to work hard anymore. They can play with their children, develop hobbies happily, and I think my death will be worthwhile!”
Wu Mabo: “…You’re really optimistic.”
Ke Lin clicked his tongue, “Since I’m already dead, I should die with meaning, die with value!” He glanced at the unconscious Lei Haoyu on the ground and asked, “Enough about me, what about you guys? What’s going on here?”
Ah! He looks happy. He accepted death so well and here I am still sad
Why did the author do this? There was no need to kill anyone 😢
Ken Lin please continue on happily and with satisfaction 😢❤️
I would’ve thrown that kid out the door and then close it. 😂
Da Lin 😭😭 glad to see him accepting his death happily but I’m still so heartbroken that he has to die TT lei haoyu was such a bish tho 🙄
Ah God… It’s good he can eat and drink well even after dying 🥲👍
Thanks for the chapter
