Hell App

is mind.

This sleazebag was the original owner’s roommate, whose name was Wei Zizhao.
The app only offered this piece of information, but Bai Yan thought for a bit and still became aware that this Wei Zizhao’s level in a foreign language was undoubtedly nothing great.

“It was okay.” Bai Yan intentionally asked as if by accident, “Oh right! When will our foregin language results come out?”

“I think around seven to eight days.
This time you were the shining light that saved me, so don’t be too worried about the exam.
Brother, thank you so much for doing me this solid and saving my *ss!” Wei Zizhao cheerfully said.

“Don’t mention it, we’re roommates afterall.
You could just treat me to a meal next time.” Upon hearing that the examination results would be released after seven days, Bai Yan calmly and unhurriedly patted Wei Zizhao’s shoulder, “Oh, by the way, can I ask you something? Do you know where the Supernatural club is?”

“Supernatural Club? I think I remember seeing a poster on the billboard outside, and on it says where the Supernatural Club’s new address is.” Wei Zizhao was flabbergasted, “You want to become a member of the Supernatural Club?”

“En.”

When he already got the information he had wanted, Bai Yan made up an excuse to say his farewells to Wei Zizhao and went alone to disseminate the poster up on the billboard.

Bai Yan searched for the Supernatural Club’s address.
The Supernatural Club was located on the second East building, room 303.

He asked a lot of people where the second East building was and was unrelentingly in a hurry to room 303.
Bai Yan hadn’t gotten there yet when he found someone standing right outside the door.

“Are you a player?” The woman asked.

“Yes.”

“You got here a bit late, there’s still one left inside.” The lady raised the application form in her hand, saying, “I’m called Ye Shangyu.
We can talk over matters slowly.”

Bai Yan glanced at the application form in her hand and gently knocked on the Supernatural Club’s door.

On the chair placed in the middle of the clubroom, a boy sat cross-legged in front of a table and handed over an application form to the person in front of him.

Bai Yan felt that that person’s back looked a bit familiar, and when that person turned his head, Bai Yan was surprised to find out that he could recognize this person.

Wasn’t this person his teammate from the third level, Li Ming?

“Li Ming?”

He tentatively called him out, and Li Ming, in response, nodded his head in acknowledgment, grabbing an application form and promptly leaving the room.

Bai Yan knew well that this wasn’t the proper time to reminiscence about the past, so he walked to the front of the table and talked to the guy in front, “Hello, who might you be?”

“I am the Supernatural Club’s president.
Do you want to join?”

“That’s right, but I don’t know the requirements to join the club.
Do I have to pay a membership fee?” Bai Yan asked this but already knew the answer.

“You don’t need money to join, just fill out this application form.
There will be five ghost stories in school this week.
You should write down the details of each tale, and if you do that, I’ll count it as passing the club’s entrance exam then you’re in! That’s it.
You can do it!” The president smiled politely.

The president casually pulled out an application form and gave it to him.
Bai Yan took the application form, always having this weird feeling that the man’s smile looked particularly eccentric.

Thinking about what the guy had said, Bai Yan could instantly predict what would happen in these ghost stories around the school.
He needed to be concerned with these strange tales.

The guy was completely indistinguishable from a normal person, but Bai Yan already marked him as some sort of ghost.

Before he left, Bai Yan quickly swept across every detail inside the club’s room, where he found a map.
The map was filled with ‘X’s’ and ‘?’s’ written in blood-red text.

Bai Yan took note of this in his heart and silently left the club room.

Ye Shangyu and Li Ming were waiting outside.

After seeing him go outside, the three walked the hall together and left the second East building.
The three people then began to exchange information.

“I should call you ‘Li Ming?’”

“Luo Xing, this is my real name.” Luo Xing added, “When I arrived in this world, I found myself in a room taking an exam.
I then immediately submitted my test early and hurriedly got out of there.”

“I am Bai Yan, the Yan as in, in the word language(1).” Bai Yan said to Ye Shangyu, “At the start of the game, I was also in an exam room, just like Luo Xing, and I didn’t understand much of it.”

Language in Chinese is (語言) Yuyan.
The Yan is used in Bai Yan’s name.

“I got luckier than you guys.
My original owner didn’t have an exam today since she took the test at an earlier date.” Ye Shangyu said, “I’ve actually gathered some information, but I know this isn’t much.
The president of the Supernatural club is a junior college student, and two months ago, he went missing.
The vice president filed a missing person report online and even offered a 5,000 yen reward to whoever could provide information on his whereabouts.
But a month ago, the president suddenly returned out of nowhere.”

“Missing? He must have died during that time…” Bai Yan muttered apprehensively, “I think that we could approach him as if he were a dead man.”

“This dead man’s going to give us a problem?” Luo Xing mucked about, “How did you sense that this was a horrifying person?”

“Practice makes perfect.
On what level are you guys in?” Ye Shangyu asked.

Luo Xing answered, “Fifth level.”

Bai Yan replied, “I’m also at my fifth level.”

Ye Shangyu nodded her head as if she understood.
She gazed at the application form in her hand and said, “The president mentioned that ghost stories will be taking place the next few days.
The ghost stories could happen around us or it could happen around school among the student body.
During the free time we have before these haunted tales are discovered, we could collect more information.”

Upon seeing that Bai Yan and Luo Xing didn’t have any contradictory opinions, Ye Shangyu said, “I’ll take care of the clues hidden on the Internet, while you guys can ask around.
Is that good with you?”

“You know computers?” Bai Yan asked.

“I only know about them a little.” Ye Shangyu stifled a laugh.

Since they’ve equally distributed the work, Ye Shangyu wanted to first go back to her dorm.
Coincidentally, both Bai Yan and Luo Xing also had the same thing in mind.

The three exchanged numbers and agreed to update each other when there was progress.
As he was going back, Bai Yan was surprised to have found out that he and Luo Xing were roommates.
