Chapter 27 (2/2)

However, after running for a long time, Lily still could not catch up with her roommate.

The stamina that she had been exhausting was depleting.

Just when Lily was about to stop walking, she finally heard the voice nearby.

“Lily, is that you?”

The voice was very close, very close.

Lily suddenly caught sight of a figure in front of her!

It could not be mistaken, it was indeed her roommate.

As expected, she had come to look for her!

Meeting a companion in such an empty and depressing environment could relieve a lot of psychological pressure.

Sure enough, Lily once again poured out all her strength and rushed toward the figure in front of her.

This time, the figure just stood there. It did not move elsewhere to look for her.

Lily could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the figure was getting closer and closer to her, Lily’s mood grew more and more excited.

Moreover, the footsteps behind her seemed to have slowed down!

At the last second before reaching the figure, Lily finally said with a trembling voice, “I’m safe, I’m finally safe!”

However, the figure in front of her, who was so close to her, repeated unwaveringly, “Lily, is that you?”

At this moment, Lily’s hand that was reaching for the figure froze mid-air.

“Lily, is that you?

“Lily, is that you?

“Lily, is that you?”

These words were uttered emotionlessly from the figure’s mouth.

Just like that, it kept repeating.

Lily finally realized.

Every ‘Lily’ she heard earlier seemed to come from the same mold.

Whether it was the speed of speech or the tone of voice, they seemed to be the same.

It was just that under the panic of being chased, she did not notice it.

“Lily, is that you?” the figure asked again.

This time, Lily’s entire body turned cold as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

There was no mistake. She was sure of it.

Every time it spoke, it sounded the same.

That figure was not her roommate!

Just as Lily covered her mouth and began to retreat, the figure suddenly took a step forward.

Thud!

Lily’s body trembled.

Were those footsteps not her own?

No, that was not right.

Those were not her own footsteps.

Those were the footsteps of someone chasing her!

Thud, thud!

The figure took two more steps forward and slowly approached Lily.

“Lily, is that you?

“Lily, is that you?”

This time, Lily’s face turned white.

She retreated in panic, trying to escape from the figure in front of her.

However, at this moment, echoes came from all directions of the library at the same time.

“Lily, is that you?

“Lily, is that you?

“Lily, is that you?”

Lily retreated to an intersection made of bookshelves and stopped moving.

It was not that she did not want to move, she just did not know where to go because at the end of every intersection, there was an identical figure approaching her.

Tap, tap, tap…

Tap, tap, tap…

“Lily, is that you?

“Lily, is that you?”

Looking at the black shadows approaching her from all directions, Lily finally broke down.

“Ahhhhhh!!!”
