Chapter 32

At this moment, Xia Tianqi was really getting fierce, his hand on the girl's neck continuously applying force, which made her struggle even more violently. After all, no matter what, the ghost was possessing the girl's body, so it could be strangled to death by him! This could be seen from the fact that the girl couldn't break free from him; he really might be able to solve this ghost with brute force alone. In fact, the girl's struggle had already become increasingly weak, and she was even rolling her eyes, seemingly about to be strangled to death by Xia Tianqi. However, Xia Tianqi was also feeling very conflicted inside. After all, the girl was innocent; she was at most a puppet controlled by the ghost, completely innocent. No matter what, she shouldn't be strangled to death by him. Moreover, if he really strangled the girl to death, even if he could eventually leave here alive, he might have to go to prison for murder in the future. Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that even if he strangled the girl, the ghost possessing her would be unharmed. In that case, he would really be at a great loss. So at this moment, although Xia Tianqi appeared very fierce, his heart was actually hesitating. However, just as he was hesitating and about to loosen his grip on the girl's neck, the "girl" who had been struggling suddenly became quiet. Seeing this, Xia Tianqi quickly released his hand, thinking he had accidentally strangled the girl to death. But before he could check the girl's condition, his body suddenly tightened, as if bound by some invisible rope, making it impossible for him to even move his head. This situation greatly alarmed Xia Tianqi, and he couldn't help but let out a few cries of alarm, but soon there was no more sound, because a blurry shadow suddenly appeared in his line of sight! The shadow appeared and disappeared in an instant, directly... entering his body! It was only at this moment that a terrifying thought suddenly came to Xia Tianqi's mind—possession! The ghost that had been possessing the girl's body was now trying to possess his body! At this moment, Xia Tianqi's mind was completely blank, filled with indescribable fear. He thought that the ghost must have chosen to possess him because it realized he would really strangle the girl to death, so it had to abandon the girl's body and try to possess his. However, there was another possibility: it wanted to use possession to eliminate him, the threat. In his heart, Xia Tianqi was constantly screaming in fear, unable to imagine what would happen if he were really possessed by the ghost. Would it be like those fantasy novels describe, where his consciousness would be completely erased by the ghost, and from then on, he would be completely replaced by the ghost, but to others, he would still be "alive"? Despite his immense unwillingness and anger, the harsh reality made him completely unable to resist. His body was still tightly bound, and the only thing he could control now was to pray. But unfortunately, he had never been a believer in God, because if there really was a God, there wouldn't be so many unfortunate things in the world. So instead of praying to God at this moment, he might as well pray to become a bit more handsome, so the ghost would be too embarrassed to possess him. In short, at this moment, Xia Tianqi's emotions were completely shattered. But this collapse didn't last long, because in the next instant, a piercing wail suddenly rang in his ears. And almost at the same time, Xia Tianqi felt the force that had been binding him disappear, and he regained control of his body. After recovering, Xia Tianqi immediately collapsed on the ground, taking a while to recover from his previous state of collapse. But thinking of the ghost that had been possessing the girl, he suddenly sat up and began searching around. However, everything in the room was the same as before, with no one or anything extra. The only change was that the girl who had been possessed had fallen into a coma. "Damn, what just happened? What was that scream? Why wasn't I possessed?" The sudden series of questions left Xia Tianqi completely confused, with no idea what had just happened. And where did the ghost that wanted to possess him go? Why did it suddenly give up? He didn't think it was because he was too handsome for the ghost to feel ashamed. Squatting down, he pinched the girl's face, which was soft and elastic, making Xia Tianqi involuntarily glance inside her pajamas, then he said in a feigned fierce tone: "Hey? I told you not to die on me, get up, did you hear me...!" Because he didn't know if the ghost had returned to the girl's body, Xia Tianqi's actions towards the girl were somewhat rough, and after two slaps, her cheeks were already noticeably swollen. "Really unconscious?" After violently abusing the girl without any result, Xia Tianqi stood up from the ground. Rubbing his temples hard, he finally felt his muddled mind clear up a bit. It seemed that the ghost had urgently chosen to possess his body not to protect the girl from harm, but because if the person it possessed was harmed, it would also suffer. So by choosing to possess him, it could avoid harm and directly solve the problem, a win-win situation. However, something went wrong during the possession, not only failing to possess him but also suffering great harm, even... being directly killed. Although it was hard to believe, from what had just happened, this seemed to be the only reasonable explanation. But there was still one question: who had killed the ghost that wanted to possess him? "Is there a hidden expert here? Could it be that Liang Ruoyun or someone else realized this trial was too difficult and came to help?" Xia Tianqi suddenly thought of the beautiful manager, but then he thought it was unlikely, as the door to Dorm 703 had always been closed, and he hadn't seen anyone come in. It couldn't be that the expert was so powerful that they could deal with the ghost without even looking at it. "Forget it, whatever, I should think about what to do next!" Unable to find an answer, Xia Tianqi decided not to think about it anymore and instead focused on the possible red ghost attack that might come later.
