Tales of the Bizarre: Beware of Your Roommate’s Online Girlfriend

Dormitory 303.

He Gu lay on his bed, his eyes tightly shut, breathing evenly, trying as much as possible to appear like he was sound asleep.

However, right beside He Gu’s bed stood a dark figure.

“He Gu, He Gu?”

Zhang Chao’s voice rang out, even reaching out to nudge He Gu.

He Gu kept his eyes closed without any response, continuing to feign sleep.

At this point, Zhang Chao simply yanked He Gu right off the bed: “Wake up, He Gu! There’s no time!”

Being pulled up, He Gu naturally couldn’t continue pretending to sleep. He could only open his eyes in a seemingly drowsy state: “Who?”

Zhang Chao took out his phone and turned on the flashlight: “It’s me, Chao.”

He Gu gave him a “surprised” glance, whispering: “Damn, you’ve finally returned?”

Zhang Chao sighed: “I’ve been troubling you these few days, but now’s not the time for talk. Hurry and come with me!”

In the midst of speaking, Zhang Chao grabbed He Gu’s wrist and tried to lead him out.

He Gu furrowed his brow, breaking free from Zhang Chao’s grip, he asked in a low voice: “Where are we going in the middle of the night?”

Zhang Chao anxiously replied: “The school isn’t safe anymore!”

“If we don’t leave soon, everyone will die!”

Zhang Chao spoke with such urgency that it stirred a bit of unease in He Gu’s heart.

However, He Gu still shook his head: “The dormitory has rules. We can’t be in the hallway after midnight.”

Zhang Chao was so anxious he started slapping his leg: “What’s the point of worrying about that now!”

Seeing He Gu still unmoved, Zhang Chao sighed: “He Gu, let me tell you straight. We both received our internship letters last week, but I secretly hid yours…”

After saying this, Zhang Chao quickly added: “Don’t rush to blame me, and don’t ask me why I did this.”

“All I can tell you is, if I hadn’t done this, you’d be dead by now!”

Having said that, Zhang Chao looked into He Gu’s eyes and sincerely said: “He Gu, trust me just this one more time!”

“Don’t ask anything, just follow me. We’re running out of time!”

As he spoke, Zhang Chao kept glancing back towards the firmly closed dormitory door, his face filled with anxiety and unease.

At this moment, a few shrill cat cries suddenly echoed from the corridor outside the door.

These cat cries were extremely piercing, sounding like a fight between wild cats, yet also like the crying of a baby, making one’s scalp tingle.

To be honest, Zhang Chao’s expression at this moment was highly contagious, and the feeling of unease in He Gu’s heart was rapidly amplifying, even giving him the urge to leave immediately.

However, He Gu did not act rashly, and kept repeating to himself: Stay calm, let the bullets fly a bit!

Seeing He Gu still not moving, Zhang Chao seemed to become more anxious.

“He Gu! Let’s go!”

“Xiao Ying has totally lost control, if we don’t leave soon, we’re all going to die!”

While speaking, Zhang Chao pulled out an envelope from his pocket: “Your internship letter is here!”

“Follow me out first, and you can report to your internship tomorrow!”

“I’ll explain the rest to you later!”

…

Earth.

In the Dragon Nation’s Strange Tales stream room.

At this moment, almost all the global viewers were watching He Gu’s reaction, and the barrage of comments in various languages almost covered the entire screen.

“So this is the correct way to clear the level!”

“This instance has too many variables, never expected that Zhang Chao would be the key to clearing it in the end!”

“I remember now, before the parrot turned red, He Gu asked it how he could clear the level, and the parrot mentioned the names Wang Tao and Zhang Chao intermittently!”

“So the correct solution is to spend the night in Wang Tao’s room, then meet Zhang Chao, and leave the school with Zhang Chao to complete the level!?”

“Haha, the people of Dragon Nation shouldn’t celebrate too early, this might be a trap too, right?”

“Damn, where did this sour dog come from? Go back and watch your own black screen live stream!”

“It’s really hard to say, this Instance is full of traps everywhere, it’s impossible to distinguish the truth from the illusion!”

…

At this point, the vast majority of the audience thought He Gu was at the last step, just leave with Zhang Chao, and they would be able to clear the level.

However, a small number of people thought it wasn’t that simple, there might still be hidden dangers in there.

The World of Strange Tales.

He Gu sat on the bed, quietly watching Zhang Chao, letting him say whatever he wanted, He Gu insisted on not moving.

Zhang Chao became anxious, tried a few times to pull He Gu up and leave, but he couldn’t move He Gu.

“Brother Gu, don’t you trust me?”

Zhang Chao stared into He Gu’s eyes and asked.

He Gu shrugged: “You hid my internship letter and didn’t give a reason, how can I trust you?”

Zhang Chao wanted to say something else, but suddenly, a woman’s laughter came from the corridor outside the door.

It was Xiao Ying’s voice!

Xiao Ying seemed to be standing outside the door, her voice sometimes mournful, sometimes mad.

Zhang Chao’s face changed: “Oh no! It’s too late!”

Bang bang bang!

At this point, the dormitory door was knocked again.

To be precise, this was not knocking anymore, it started as banging on the door!

Bang bang bang!

The noise of the banging was so loud that He Gu even felt the whole room was shaking a bit.

Along with the banging, the Parrot’s hoarse duck’s voice sounded in the corridor again: “Wa–Hehe… dead!”

“Wa–”

The Parrot had only cried out twice, then its voice suddenly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, there were “crunch crunch” gnawing sounds outside the door.

Although He Gu had heard these sounds last night, they still made his scalp numb at this time.

Zhang Chao looked at the dormitory door with a serious face, made a silence gesture to He Gu, and whispered, “Don’t make any noise!”

Not long after, a series of cat cries sounded outside the door.

Then, the “ding-a-ling clang” sound, messy footsteps, sharp cat cries… various noisy sounds mixed up outside the door.

Judging from the noise, it seemed as if someone was fighting with a group of wild cats in the corridor.

At the same time, the banging on the door and Xiao Ying’s laughter continued.

The banging became more and more urgent, He Gu even saw the door panel start to shake, as if it would be broken at any time.

Listening to these noises, He Gu felt his scalp go numb, and the anxiety in his heart had brewed to the extreme, his back was soaked with cold sweat.

To be honest, He Gu was not as calm as he appeared on the surface, he was already very panicked.

The chaos outside the door lasted for three to five minutes.

“Ah–”

At this point, a woman’s scream sounded outside the door.

Simultaneously, all the sounds outside the door stopped abruptly.

It was as if the chaotic scene in the corridor outside the door had ended instantly with this scream.

At this moment, the whole world fell silent.

It was quiet outside the door, as if all the sounds just now had never occurred.

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound outside.

At this point, Zhang Chao suddenly grabbed He Gu’s wrist: “Brother Gu, let’s go, this is the last chance!”

Seeing Zhang Chao’s eager look, He Gu almost stood up and walked with him for two steps.

Then He Gu immediately came back to his senses, once again wrestled away Zhang Chao’s hand, and whispered, “I won’t go out before six o’clock.”

Hearing this, Zhang Chao’s face changed, and he was about to say something else.

And just at this moment, the dormitory door suddenly made a loud “bang” and was kicked open!

The dim light from the corridor shone in, and He Gu only saw a figure rushing in from the door, charging straight at He Gu.

When the figure got closer, He Gu finally saw clearly.

This person was Wang Tao.

Wang Tao stood with his eyes tightly closed, his movements rigid and filled with bizarre events, clearlyWang Tao stood with his eyes tightly closed, his movements rigid and filled with bizarre events, clearly sleepwalking.

Moreover, at this moment, Wang Tao was covered from head to toe in blood, with not a few red feathers stuck around his lips, and he was even clutching half a bloody parrot in his hand!

“Holy crap!”

The situation arose so suddenly, and Wang Tao’s appearance was too visually shocking, scaring He Gu into jumping up with a start and blurting out a curse under his breath.

Seeing Wang Tao about to lunge at him, He Gu, in his panic, grabbed a nearby pillow to shield himself, temporarily blocking Wang Tao’s bloody head.

Just then, Zhang Chao from the side suddenly lunged at Wang Tao with a quick stride, knocking him to the ground, and then viciously bit down on his neck…
