Chapter 5: Pen Spirit Game

  "I don't want to think about it anymore, I'll just hurry back to the dorm," Nuoyan returned to her 301 female dormitory at Sacred Heart High School, she pushed open the door and walked in.

  Sacred Heart High School has always been predominantly male, with a severe imbalance in the ratio of boys to girls. In this dormitory, there were originally only six people, but two had asked for leave: one because a family member had passed away and they needed to return home for the funeral, while the other was due to having developed suppurative appendicitis and needing to go to the hospital for an appendectomy.

  Excluding the two who took leave and left, including herself, there are now only four people left in this dormitory.

  Nuo Yan usually doesn't like to talk much, and her personality is a bit introverted. So, she also doesn't have any real close friends here. She only stays in the self-study room until so late because she feels that the dormitory is always too noisy and she can't focus on reviewing her lessons.

  She had just walked into the dormitory when she saw Li Mengqi and Lin Anran fiddling with something on the table, both of them looking very focused.

  As I walked closer, all I saw was a thick white sketch paper on the small square table, and both of their hands were holding the same pen together. The pen was a black carbon pen. Looking at the paper again, there were some irregular circles and scribbles drawn on it, which made no sense at all.

  She couldn't help but ask: "Meng Qi, An Ran, what are you doing?"

  "We're playing a game of Pen Spirit." Li Mengqi's eyes were still focused on the pen tightly grasped in her hand.

  "Pen Fairy Game?" Nuo Yan had also heard of it, but she had never played it because she thought it was a scam. How could an ordinary pen possibly summon a "fairy"?

  At this time, Si Jielan suddenly crawled out of the quilt, revealing a small head. "Nuo Yan, don't mind them, I think they must be crazy, playing pen spirit game in the middle of the night!"

  "It's still early, why sleep so soon? Can't you go chat with Lord Zhou instead? But Lord Zhou won't give you a golden turtle son-in-law." Lin Anran glared at Cui Jielan, "Cui Jielan, just obediently go to sleep."

  "I've heard this is really ominous, I advise you all to stop playing, be careful or you might actually summon a ghost," said Si Jielan, taking out her phone to take a look, "and it's almost midnight now, we can't play this game anymore."

  "Invite ghosts to come?" Lin Anran curled her lips, looking disbelieving, "I don't believe it, what ghosts are there in this world? Have you watched too many ghost movies?"

  "It's better to believe in its existence than not. " Si Jielan said with a serious tone, but in fact she was a person who believed in the existence of ghosts and gods. She always carried a peace symbol on her body, which was said to be able to ward off evil spirits.

  Lin Anran hummed softly and ignored him, "How superstitious! Can't stand you, just go to sleep quickly!"

  Nuo Yan didn't want to get involved in anything, she had always been quiet and reserved, now she was very tired and just wanted to rest.

  She slept on the upper berth, and the girl on the lower berth was Ji Ningping who had to have surgery for appendicitis, so it was empty.

  She stepped lightly onto the lower bunk and then grasped the railing beside it, making her way up to the upper bunk.

  Made the bed and got ready for sleep.

  "It's alright, let's not bother her," said Li Mengqi, pursing her lips and smiling mysteriously. "This isn't fun, seeking romantic relationships is something we shouldn't trouble the Pen Fairy with. How about we change to a different game?"

  "Want to try a different way? How do you play it? Do you have any new ideas?" Lin Anran hooked up the corner of his lips and asked with great interest.
