Yan w.a.n.gchuan stood up calmly and handed over the test paper.

He was not intending to apologize at all!

After the cla.s.s ended, Mrs. Lin left with the test papers in hand.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan was talking to Man Shahua.

Man Shahua said, "Chuanchuan, there's no way Fan Xiaolu that idiot can trick you! With me here, no one will dare to do anything to you. Even Jiang Ba doesn't dare to touch you, who does this Fan Xiaolu think he is?"

Hearing the conversation, Long Xi turned around and said to Man Shahua, "Fan Xiaolu is a person, you're the one that doesn't know your position! Don't slander others with your dirty mouth!"

Man Shahua was just about to rebut when Yan w.a.n.gchuan's face turned pale and he stood up suddenly, shouting, "I didn't finish the game. I didn't follow the rules, so I have to accept my punishment."

Everyone was shocked.

Sitting beside him, Man Shahua quickly held onto him. "Chuanchuan, are you alright?"

His gaze was empty and he had a sluggish look on his face.

Long Xi forgot that she was still angry at him for a moment and quickly said, "Brother w.a.n.gchuan, Xiaolu's game must be a joke, so don't take it seriously."

He looked at her and nodded his head. Suddenly, his head became transparent.

"Ah..." The students started screaming!

Long Xi was the first to react and immediately took out her phone to call the police.

However, for some unknown reason, the call was not able to go through. After careful observation, she found that there was no signal.

What was happening?

She was not alone. Everyone present had lost signal on their phones and was unable to make calls. Even Man Shahua's latest high-priced satellite phone could not get any signal.

Long Xi whispered to Wei Wei, "This is unusual." "The reason as to why normal phones were not receiving signals was probably because someone placed a signal interceptor somewhere in a corner. But how could a satellite phone lose signal as well? Man Shahua's phone would not be affected by the conditions on earth. Be it in the wilderness or near a desert, connection to the outside world would not be lost. Could this be related to the hacker who distributed the red packets?"

Wei Wei's eyes were red and she cried, "Did something happen to Xiaolu?"

"Let's go find him at the dormitory." Long Xi initiated.

"Xiaolu is not at the dormitory! After sending you guys back last night, he said that he's going to buy something from the convenience store outside the school. He hasn't returned since," said Li Li.

Long Xi asked Li Li, "Are you sure?"

He replied, "When I went back last night, I was very hyper and couldn't sleep, so I knew what happened for sure. I didn't see him return."

Hearing that, Wei Wei was all the more worried. "Could he have become transparent too?"

While comforting her, Long Xi continued calling Xiaolu. However, there was still no signal.

Li Li said, "I wanted to go out of school to find him this morning, but I realized when I have the thought in mind, there will be a layer of white fog enveloping me. I could not find the exit at all."

Hua Yanyan said, "I tried to escape too and was in the same situation as you. There's no way I could have gotten out of that. It felt like I was in a white fog maze. The teachers and students from other cla.s.ses seem to not notice anything different about our cla.s.smates."

Man Shahua said, "What do you guys know? These are caused by ghosts! Ever since Long Xi arrived at the back hill, a series of strange events happened. These are caused by her."

Long Xi replied, "We are all atheists, and we don't believe in ghosts! I think someone used a scientific method to control our brains and let us all have hallucinations."

Both girls were both eloquent and stood firm on their stance. They were not willing to give way to each other and it ended up becoming a debate.

In the afternoon, people were still discussing it. Watching a person become transparent, as if evaporating from the surface of the earth, was too insane.

"What is going on exactly?"

"I'm still figuring it out too. Do you think we've developed paranoia?"

"Is it possible to get it collectively?"

Long Xi sat down at her seat by herself. She could not tame the fear in her heart. At this moment, Yan w.a.n.gchuan's voice kept echoing in her mind. "I didn't finish the game. I didn't follow the rules, so I have to accept my punishment."

"Ah... everyone, look at the group chat quickly." Hua Yanyan stood up suddenly and looked at her phone in horror.

"What's wrong?"

"What a big fuss, you almost scared me to death."

Several students scoffed at Hua Yanyan, but after looking at their phones, they were horrified as well and started to murmur between themselves.

Long Xi opened WeChat as well and her eyes bulged wide open immediately! The transparent Yan w.a.n.gchuan sent a message into the cla.s.s chat?!

Long Xi's hands were shaking.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan: "It's dark in here, is anyone willing to come to keep me company? I received a message from Fan Xiaolu. He said that I am the first to be punished and have the privilege to find someone else to accompany me. @ManMan, didn't you say that you will protect me?"

Man Shahua's face was colored red and white.

Jiang Ba threw a side glance at her and said sinisterly, "Man Shahua, aren't you his girlfriend? He needs you now!"

Man Shahua snorted and left without saying a word, heading for the girls' dormitory. Her three sidekicks, Hua Yanyan, Cheng Fei and Yue Ran followed behind.

Long Xi sighed in relief. She could tell that Man Shahua did not care about Yan w.a.n.gchuan at all.

After a while, Yan w.a.n.gchuan sent another message: "@Long Xi, Xiao Longnv, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. You don't know what I've been through in middle school. I am not the same old me. I'm sorry! But I really don't want to become like this! Can you come and accompany me? I'm really scared! It feels like there's something here blocking the exit. I can't get out. "

Long Xi's eyes became red. Xiao Longnv was the nickname he gave her when they were young. He had not called her that for many years.

Long Xi: "Yan w.a.n.gchuan, what exactly happened to you?" "Indeed, you weren't like this in the past. Do you remember saving me from drowning when we were young? In order to return your kindness, I promise you, I will come and join you. From now on, we don't owe each other anything!"

Wei Wei and Yu Lanjie said, "Long Xi, you must think through it carefully. Is he worth it?"

Long Xi's gaze was full of determination. She clenched her fists and said, "I have decided."

As soon as her voice fell, her entire body became transparent.

Wei Wei and Yu Lanjie screamed and jumped into each others' arms. Most of the other students were stunned.

Long Xi realized that her surrounding had changed completely.

She found herself in a room filled with darkness. There was a tiny streak of light at a corner, highlighting a s.h.i.+vering shadow.

There seemed to be a lamp on a desk. Long Xi tried to find her way to it. She found the switch and turned the light on.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan was crouching down in a corner with no expressions on his face. His whole body was trembling.
