Chapter 54
Chai Xiaohe had already started taking a bath, but Ye Shangyu was not in a hurry to get wet immediately.
Even though it was not too warm just wearing a bath towel in the bathroom, Ye Shangyu still put the bath basket on the shelf and walked around the bathroom to get a general understanding of the structure of the bathroom.
There are more than 40 nozzles in the women's bath, but only 30 are usable.
Although it was a holiday, there were still many people coming to take a bath, and all the available nozzles were occupied.
Because so many people were showering, the drainage system in the women's bathroom couldn't keep up with the water flow.
Therefore, thick water accumulated in the women's bath, which could soak through the girls' slippers and soak their heels.
As Ye Shangyu walked around, the dirty water mixed with shampoo and shower gel foam kept rolling around her ankles, which was really disgusting.
Ye Shangyu put on her slippers and let the sewage flow from the soles of her feet to her toes. She still frowned and walked around the bathroom before returning.
"Shangyu, where were you just now? Didn't you agree to wash here?"
"I'm going to use the toilet inside." Ye Shangyu used this excuse just now when he saw a toilet in the women's bath.
At this time, Ye Shangyu had not yet touched the water, but Chai Xiaohe had already wet his body and started washing his hair with shampoo.
Because the winter at Blue Sky College was too cold, Chai Xiaohe didn't care about saving water. Even if she washed her hair, she would still take a shower to keep her body warm.
Ye Shangyu lowered his head and looked along the drainage groove. On the far right side of the first row of the bathroom was the location of the floor drain.
The women's baths are all for girls, and there is a lot of hair washed off, so in order to prevent the floor drain from clogging, the bathroom cleaning staff installed a wire filter next to the floor drain to block fine hair.
It is precisely because of this filter that the drainage speed is extremely slow, and there will be more and more water in the bathroom.
After looking over all the bathroom facilities, Ye Shangyu put the card on the machine and started taking a shower and washing his hair.
Hot water was poured on Ye Shangyu's body. She wet her hair with the water, but started washing her body directly without applying shampoo.
Seeing this, Chai Xiaohe rubbed his head and said, "Shangyu, you don't want to wash your hair?"
"I washed it yesterday."
Ye Shangyu responded to Chai Xiaohe, but that was not what he thought in his heart.
If you wash your hair, your eyes will be splashed with foam. It is quite dangerous to be blind during the game. Even if it is only for a few seconds, it is enough for the ghost to make some small movements.
Even if hot water is poured on his head, Ye Shangyu's eyes remain level with the wall, and even if hot water splashes on his eyes, he only blinks slightly.
Soon, her whole body was wet. Ye Shangyu absentmindedly applied shower gel on her body, but her eyes kept scanning the surroundings, secretly wary of strange stories that might happen at any time.
“Hiss—it’s so cold!”
The door to the women's bath suddenly opened.
Looking at the wide open door, Chai Xiaohe cursed angrily: "Is that person qualified just now? She is still a college student, and she doesn't even know how to close the door! Does she want to freeze me to death?"
At this time, Chai Xiaohe regretted very much. If he had known she would not listen to Ye Shangyu. Near the door, people come and go, but not everyone will close the door.
Unable to bear the constant influx of cold air, Chai Xiaohe ran and closed the door.
Seeing this, Ye Shangyu frowned slightly.
In this environment, closing the door is equivalent to closing the escape route.
"Damn, it's not over yet!"
Chai Xiaohe was so angry that she planned to close the door again. This time, Ye Shangyu quickly stopped her: "We have to wash here for a while. If you close it this time, the door may not be closed next time when people come in. Don't bother so much." "
"Oh, I should have known better than to listen to you. We should have gone in and washed ourselves." Chai Xiaohe sighed.
"There is no place inside, we have to wait in line." Ye Shangyu apologized: "Just bear with it for a while, just go out."
Chai Xiaohe kept silent, but had many discussions in his heart.
She speeded up the bathing, and Ye Shangyu also hurriedly washed away the foam on her body.
Soon, they were almost finished washing. Ye Shangyu counted the time and became increasingly wary.
"Ah! The power is out!"
"Why is the power outage again! How many times this semester is this? Does the school care about anything?"
"I'm freezing to death. If the power goes out, the power goes out, and the water is cold no matter what!"
Almost instantly, the women's bath was immersed in darkness.
Located on the ground floor on the first floor, there is no window in the women's bath.
Therefore, when the power was cut off, the bathroom immediately became invisible, and all one could hear was screams of exclamation one after another.
"Oh my god, the water is too cold. I won't wash anymore. I want to go out!"
In the distance, Ye Shangyu heard complaints from girls in the distance.
Beside her, Chai Xiaohe couldn't help but complain: "We are so unlucky that we encountered a power outage!"
"Do bathroom power outages occur frequently?" Ye Shangyu asked.
"That's right. It's happened six or seven times this semester. I just encountered it once not long ago. Alas, it happens to me no matter what. It's bad luck!"
Chai Xiaohe took a sip, and after spitting, he felt the water on his ankles, and his face turned green because of his disgust.
There was a power outage in the bathroom, and Chai Xiaohe wanted to get out, but unfortunately the foam on her body hadn't been rinsed out yet, so she had to rinse her body with cold water in a hurry, planning to get out as soon as she finished.
While Chai Xiaohe was flushing the water, Ye Shangyu knew that the strange story was coming.
Even though she couldn't see, she was still concentrating on sensing her surroundings. Within a few seconds, a penetrating scream came from the next door, scaring all the girls.
"Ahhhh! Help! There's a ghost!"
"Damn, is that heartless guy joking? Don't scare me!"
"Xiaoqi, I'm not lying to you! There's really a ghost! There's a ghost pulling my hand!"
Amid all kinds of screams, the women's bathing room instantly fell into chaos.
Hearing all kinds of screams, Chai Xiaohe was speechless: "They are all having fun, so what? Isn't it just a power outage?"
Chai Xiaohe didn't care. She continued to take a cold shower, wanting to finish it quickly and get away from these crazy women.
However, as she was showering, she felt something was wrong. Chai Xiaohe touched the foam on her chest with the shower flower and said in surprise: "Shangyu, why are you rubbing my back now? I don't need it now."
"Rubbing your back? Who touched your back? I'm still standing there, not moving. Listen, the water on me is still flowing!"
"What? It's not you, then who's behind me...?"
Chai Xiaohe's whole body suddenly stiffened. She felt the cold hand behind her still roaming on her back, along her coccyx all the way up.
Maybe it was because the water was too cold, Chai Xiaohe felt that the hand was extremely cold, even colder than cold water.
Hearing the sound of water flowing next to her, Chai Xiaohe was almost scared to tears: "Shangyu, don't scare me! It's so dark now, I'll be scared to death!"
"I didn't lie to you, but I really didn't rub your back. Is someone joking with you?"
Although she said so, Ye Shangyu knew that Chai Xiaohe had encountered a ghost.
However, even if she knew, she couldn't say it directly.
Sometimes, directly revealing the identity of the ghost is to stimulate the ghost. If you pretend not to know, you can still survive under the ghost's mouth for a while.
So, Ye Shangyu reminded her, and then kept silent, and stopped stimulating Chai Xiaohe.
She didn't expect that the influence of the player's ghost talk would be so large that even the people around her would be affected by the ghost talk.
If possible, she didn't want to implicate so many people. Other players may have no psychological pressure to sell NPCs, but she knew that they were not NPCs, but living lives.
However, Ye Shangyu was only sad for a moment, and soon adjusted herself. She knew that she was not a good person. She pulled Chai Xiaohe to take a bath together because she was afraid that there would be no one in the bathroom, so she would use her as a scapegoat at a critical moment.
Hearing that there was a ghost hand behind Chai Xiaohe, Ye Shangyu quietly moved to the side to avoid being affected by the ghost hand.
But then, her expression changed, because she also felt that there was suddenly a pair of hands on her hair, washing her hair!
The ghost story appeared!
In the dark, Ye Shangyu could not see anything, which made her touch more sensitive.
The hands that stayed on her hair were tearing her scalp rather than washing her hair.
With the current strength, it can still be said to be rubbing, but Ye Shangyu knew that if she sat there and waited for death, the ghost hands would tear her hair and scalp together in a while, and even tear her head off her neck!
Before Chai Xiaohe finished speaking, Ye Shangyu scolded, "How is it possible? How can there be ghosts in this world? You are wrong!"
"But...but I really..."
Chai Xiaohe felt very wronged, but Ye Shangyu scolded her again, making her shut up completely.
Chai Xiaohe didn't expect that Ye Shangyu, a girl who looked elegant, could be so cruel when scolding people.
If it were any other time, she would definitely be very angry, but the hand behind her was getting stronger and stronger, making her feel vaguely that its purpose was not to rub her back, but to tear off her skin and take out her heart.
Seeing that Ye Shangyu stopped talking after scolding that sentence, Chai Xiaohe was afraid and scared. She felt that her roommate was also a little bit wrong, so she endured the pain and moved towards the door with her memory, wanting to escape from this terrible place.
However, as soon as she reached the door, she was startled and screamed: "Who?"
"The door is locked! We can't get out!"
The girl at the door cried and continued to sob softly. Chai Xiaohe reached forward and didn't touch the door handle, but touched a cold hand instead.
Chai Xiaohe thought it was the girl's hand, but she quickly realized that this hand and the hands behind her should be the same thing -
same cold, same sharp, and no one would hold their neck tightly with their hands!
The girl's sobbing became smaller and smaller, probably because she couldn't cry because of the ghost hand.
Ye Shangyu also heard what Chai Xiaohe and the others said at the door. Although the door was still open before the power went out, she knew that the App would not let her pass so easily.
The hands that stayed in her hair were still rubbing hard. Ye Shangyu tried her best to ignore the ghost hands and took out the mobile phone in the bath basket in the dark.
She remembered that the president had also encountered a ghost in the bathroom. He was staying in a haunted hotel at the time. When he was taking a shower, the bathroom suddenly lost power and the door was locked, trapping the president in the dark bathroom.
At the end of the story, the president used his mobile phone to illuminate, opened the door and escaped. According to the records in the archives, the ghost in the bathroom is afraid of light. As long as there is light, the ghost cannot kill people.
Ghosts are afraid of light!
Ye Shangyu held the phone tightly, but she did not open it easily, and did not even press the button.
She groped in the dark and shouted inside: "Who brought a mobile phone? The door is locked and we can't get out!"
"What, the door is locked?"
"Woo woo... What should we do!"
"I brought a mobile phone! I'll turn on the flashlight now, don't worry!"
A hint of joy flashed in Ye Shangyu's eyes. In fact, she brought two mobile phones, one of which was prepared to lend to others at a critical moment.
Now that a girl brought a mobile phone, she let the other mobile phone continue to lie in the bath basket.
"Help! Someone is dead!!!"
"There is a ghost! There is a ghost in the bathroom! A ghost is biting my leg, I don't want to die!"
"The girl next to me suddenly died! Help! I don't want to stay here!"
The girls screamed and swarmed at the door, blocking the door tightly.
Unfortunately, despite their efforts, the door was still tightly closed as if it was welded shut, and no one could run out.
For fear of irritating the ghost on her head, Ye Shangyu still stood under the shower and let the increasingly powerful hands wash her hair.
She knew that the door would not open unless she found a way out, so she did not join in the fun, so as not to be implicated by the ghosts on other girls.
"Opening the phone is indeed not a way out. The girl who just died should be the lighting girl!"
Ye Shangyu secretly said that what was written in the file was indeed not a way out. She knew that things that passed through the hands of ghosts were all ghosts.
Abandoning the slightest trust in the file, Ye Shangyu was ready to find a way out on her own, just like every time before.
Tick, tick...
The money in the card was used up, and drops of water dripped out from the nozzle and hit her neck.
Feeling that there was no water, the ghost hand on Ye Shangyu's head gave up the disguise and began to pull her scalp hard.
Ye Shangyu couldn't help but scream out in pain, but she immediately bit her lips tightly to prevent the sound from leaking out, lest the evil ghost become more wanton.
"Life, what is the way out?"
"This is just ordinary difficulty, there must be a way out..."
Ye Shangyu pondered and touched the wall with her hand. The wall was clean and there was nothing extra.
But under her feet, the sewage under her feet accumulated more and more, and it had already submerged her calves.
Ye Shangyu paddled in the water with her feet and felt strands of hair floating in the water. The number was too much.
"The water is rising too fast."
Ye Shangyu stood still and listened attentively.
The screams of the girls blocking the door were extremely harsh, interfering with her hearing. But Ye Shangyu could still hear that countless nozzles in the distance began to spray water on the ground, causing the water level to gradually rise.
Ye Shangyu felt that she seemed to understand something.
So, she stepped on the water and began to walk towards the floor drain.
As she approached the floor drain, the water level rose faster and faster. In just a dozen seconds, the sewage mixed with fishy smell rose to her waist.
The rapidly rising water level also attracted the attention of other girls. They felt the water almost reaching their chests, and the sound of hitting the door became more and more powerful. At the same time, the screams and wails became more and more piercing.
Ignoring the background sound of screaming, Ye Shangyu moved towards the floor drain with difficulty.
At this time, the hair floating on the bottom of the water entangled her feet, trying to bind her in place.
At this time, the sewage had risen to Ye Shangyu's chest, and she knew that she couldn't drag it on like this.
If this continues, they will be drowned before the ghost on her head takes off her head.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Shangyu held her breath, closed her eyes and dived down.
Ye Shangyu fumbled in the water for the location of the filter in her memory, and soon she found the floor drain on the left side of the filter.
She could clearly feel a cold and stiff thigh stuck in the floor drain.
It was this cold leg that blocked the drain.
