Her eyes fell on Lu Xichen's hand, and a "gurgling" sound came from her throat, which sounded very strange.

Lu Xishen calmly put the note with the rules in his hand into his shirt pocket and replied calmly: "I remember my period and I'm afraid I'll miss it."

Unexpectedly, this was the answer. Zhao Xiang squinted at Lu Xichen, turned her head back, lay down and continued to sleep.

The wind was very strong at night, and there were footsteps coming and going outside the house, which was very noisy, but Lu Xichen still fell asleep.

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the dormitory door was blown open with a "creak". A gust of cold wind blew in, waking up Lu Xichen.

The first thing he saw was the open door, and Lu Xichen's heart immediately went on alert, and he thought of the second rule at the same time.

[2. Villagers are very busy and will be active at night. As long as the door is bolted, no accidents will happen.]

The door cannot be opened at night!

She was about to get up and close the door, but then she changed her mind.

She lay back on the bed and called Zhao Xiang.

"Zhao Xiang! Zhao Xiang! I need your help!"

"What are you making so much noise for! You won't let me sleep!" Zhao Xiang sat up from the bed with an angry face.

"The door is open." Lu Xishen answered quietly.

"The door is open, can't you close it yourself? Do you have to let me go? Just because I'm close to the door! So you let me go? You don't treat me as a human being, do you!"

Zhao Xiang became more and more agitated as she spoke, and a gurgling sound came from her throat again.

"Speak! Speak! Answer me! Don't you treat me as a human being? Speak!" Zhao Xiang's voice became louder and louder.

Lu Xichen was really afraid that she would bring in some unnecessary things from outside the door.

[4. Zhao Xiang is your good colleague. She has the key and will not let you open the door at night.]

[5. Don't anger Zhao Xiang. Try to obey her and choose to trust her. This is a good idea.]

Zhao Xiang is a good colleague, so it is normal for a good colleague to help close the door.

As for obeying her...does that mean you don't treat her as a human being?

Lu Xichen looked up at the frantic Zhao Xiang. If she followed Zhao Xiang's words...she would die...

Something is not quite right with this rule.

But now it should be fine according to the fourth rule.

Thinking of this, she coughed lightly and replied in a gentle tone: "You are my colleague. Isn't it good for colleagues to help each other? It can enhance friendship."

"Colleagues... help each other..." Zhao Xiang was stunned, muttered to herself twice, then quietly got up and closed the door.

With the faint moonlight, Lu Xichen noticed that Zhao Xiang only closed the door but did not bolt it.

The rules state that if the bolt is inserted, no accidents will occur, but if it is not inserted, accidents may occur.

So Lu Xichen continued to say to Zhao Xiang, "Zhao Xiang, could you please put the bolt on? I'm weak, so I have to ask you to help me. We are good colleagues, right?"

Zhao Xiang had just laid down with the door closed. Upon hearing this, she stood up and stared at Lu Xichen unhappily, but said nothing.

Lu Xichen always looked at Zhao Xiang with a smile, even though Zhao Xiang was staring at her with her eyes that had only the whites of the eyeballs.

After staring for more than ten seconds, Zhao Xiang suddenly turned around and bolted the door.

"It's really troublesome. There are so many things to do." Zhao Xiang muttered and lay down.

After the bolt was inserted, Lu Xichen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When she lay down on the bed, she found that her back was soaked with cold sweat.

She was very nervous when she faced the weird Zhao Xiang just now.

Everything here is too scary, plus that hint says a strange world is coming.

Weird... isn't that weird...

If Zhao Xiang was a ghost, how could an ordinary person like her defeat him? That would be courting death.

She must find a way to leave this copy as soon as possible.

As he was thinking, Lu Xichen fell into a deep sleep.

At twelve o'clock, there was a knock on the window near Lu Xishen, accompanied by whispers.

"Teacher Lu, I'm Chen Xiao. Please open the door for me. I want to give you something." Chen Xiao's voice came from the window.

Lu Xishen suppressed his anger, covered his head with the quilt and continued to sleep.

But Chen Xiao outside the window kept urging him.

"Teacher Lu, please open the door. I'm going to tell you a secret. Zhao Xiang is not a normal person. It will be dangerous for you to be together."

"Teacher Lu, a child in the village is sick. Can you help take a look?"

"Teacher Lu..."

Lu Xishen could no longer hear what was said next.

She has not had any rest since she took over this body and has always been in a state of high tension.

She was really tired at the moment, so she fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Lu Xichen woke up with dark circles under his eyes.

I yawned and just saw Zhao Xiang going out.

There was no one else in the room, so Lu Xishen took out the note of rules he found last night and looked at it.

According to the fifth rule, Lu Xichen discovered last night that something was wrong with the note, but it was too dark and she couldn't see clearly.

I unfolded the note and read it again, and soon found what was wrong.

Although the rules above are all in uniform black font, the thickness is different, and it is easy to overlook this problem when it is dark.

There's nothing wrong with the first four rules, only the fifth.

[5. Don't anger Zhao Xiang. Try to obey her and choose to trust her. This is a good idea.]

“Try to obey her words” This one is rougher than the others.

Lu Xishen stared at the sentence carefully over and over again, and found that the color of the sentence seemed to be... blue?

It looks like it has been painted several times, with the blue colors superimposed on each other, and if you don't look closely it looks like black.

The note I picked up at the entrance of the village also had a rule written in blue, but the blue was very obvious.

If the word in blue is wrong, combined with the previous speculation, ignore the words in brackets and put the words before the comma into the sentence.

That's the fifth rule in the first note.

[5. Zhao Xiang is your colleague. She is trustworthy. You can contact her if you need anything. She will do her best to help you.]

In this way, the rules on both pieces of paper are consistent.

She glanced at the note in her hand. If she had followed the "altered" rules completely last night, she might have become a corpse now.

Ah.

With a sneer, Lu Xichen got up, washed, and looked up at the time. It was eight twenty.

Her working hours are from 9:00 to 11:30. If you remove the comma, it means that she is not allowed to be in the classroom during non-working hours.

But the rules don’t say you can’t do it at the classroom door.

So, after tidying up, Lu Xichen came to the classroom door.

Many children are playing happily outside the classroom, and every child has a happy smile on his or her face.

But Lu Xichen discovered a very strange place.

There are no girls here.

Do you favor boys over girls?

While Lu Xichen was thinking, Chen Xiao came running over in a hurry, holding a little boy in his hand.

"Teacher Lu, this is my younger brother. He is a bit stupid and doesn't like studying. Previous teachers would help him prepare for the lessons in advance. Could you please help him too?"
