Ning Wei felt a little sympathetic towards them, but in the next second, she started sympathizing with herself.
When these people saw that Sheng Kaiwei was dead, they also panicked.
Without their leader, they didn't know what to do next.
They were completely clueless about any information regarding this station, seeing everyone as a ghost, and were in a state of self-inflicted fear.
Accustomed to being led, they set their sights on Ning Wei, who was the most capable.
Yesterday, Sheng Kaiwei had said Ning Wei was a ghost; they thought if they followed the wrong leader, so be it!
Here, they couldn't even survive by hiding, so they wanted to find someone strong.
Just as Ning Wei and her group were about to go to the sofa, these people made their move.
They surrounded the sofa Ning Wei was about to sit on, just like gathering for a fight.
"What do you want?" Ning Wei asked, annoyed.
The group looked at each other, and finally, one person was pushed forward.
"Can we cooperate again? We promise to follow your orders and charge out to help when the wolves come at night!"
Ning Wei had no intention of leading novices through a challenge, but seeing their dazed yet hopeful eyes, the refusal on her lips never left.
"I understand," she said, brushing them off perfunctorily.
These people dared not pester Ning Wei to protect them, so after stating their request, they retreated to the side.
They also stopped going to the backyard. Since the sofas were all occupied by Ning Wei's people, they huddled in the corner to rest, looking both pathetic and amusing.
Moreover, their presence made it inconvenient for Ning Wei and her team to talk.
Judging by their behavior, it seemed these people would follow them wherever they went.
Fortunately, Ning Wei had already informed her teammates of all the information in the morning, so there was nothing crucial to discuss now.
Ning Wei trusted her teammates and sympathized with these headless flies, but that didn't mean she was naive enough to lead them forward.
Four nights had already passed, and these people were still like headless flies; thus, their current predicament was quite normal.
They had fought with the wolves last night, so Ning Wei didn't know how many guests had turned into ghosts.
Tonight, she had already decided. She wouldn't choose a safe house, but would wait for the wolves in the main hall.
By trapping the wolves on the first floor, at least some guests could be saved.
Ning Wei didn't need to do this, but Lian Yun's attitude made it clear that she would eventually make a move against her.
Since Lian Yun wanted to expand her group of companions, Ning Wei was determined to do the opposite!
You expand yours, I'll protect mine.
This action was clearly defying Lian Yun. She hadn't expected that in just a few days, this game would twist human nature to such an extent.
The time spent lying around passed quickly, and it was noon in the blink of an eye.
Unfortunately, there would be no 'shura field' today, as ghosts had already been apprehended in the morning.
After lunch, they returned to the sofas to sleep. Because of the wolves, their lives had been completely turned upside down.
Daytime for napping, nighttime for working.
After dinner, the group who had requested Ning Wei's help began searching the hall for suitable tools.
Based on their understanding, Ning Wei would definitely fight the wolves at night, and to show their loyalty, they needed to step forward at a critical moment.
Unfortunately, everything in the hall that could serve as a weapon was too heavy for them to lift.
In the end, they could only place their hopes on the rooms, as they often saw crime scenes, and thus useful tools would be found, much like random drops in a game.
In the past, they had detested such rooms; now, their mindset had shifted, and they hoped to be assigned to one.
Without any weapons, there was no hope of fighting against the wolves.
Soon, it was eleven-thirty. Wu Qing came out to remind the guests that they could go upstairs to choose their safe houses.
Ning Wei and her team remained in place. Lian Yun had also completely given up, dragging a stool to sit by the window, quietly watching the wolves outside.
"You guys... aren't going upstairs?" one of the people clinging to them asked.
Ning Wei closed her eyes and didn't reply. Mei Nan told them, "Since we have to fight anyway, we'll just wait here."
That person had thought they could escape tonight, but unexpectedly, Ning Wei and her team were determined to fight the wolves to the end.
"Then what about us..." these people were at a loss.
Tang Tang saw their reaction and knew that their plan was to seek Ning Wei's protection without wanting to contribute anything themselves.
During the day, they spoke eloquently, but fortunately, Ning Wei hadn't promised them anything.
"Hmph," Tang Tang snorted. The group, feeling awkward, still walked upstairs.
Soon, only Ning Wei, her teammates, and Lian Yun remained in the hall.
"You plan to block the wolves here?" Lian Yun suddenly spoke.
Everyone knew her choice now and didn't give her any pleasantries.
"I just want to live. Why must you push me to death?" Lian Yun's voice was filled with accusation.
"It's you who can't recognize reality. We understand you want to live, but you can't drag others down with you!" Zhu Yilian immediately retorted.
"If everyone becomes a ghost, we can leave alive. Why don't you believe it!" Lian Yun had gone mad, completely brainwashed by this so-called rule.
Seeing her deranged state, Yuan Yuan remembered her past experiences and stepped forward, wanting to talk to her properly.
"I understand how you feel, but you yourself are not certain if that so-called rule is true, are you? For a slim hope, can you really bear to lead everyone to their deaths?"
After Lian Yun became a ghost, she personally knew nothing about what ghosts could do or what their rules were.
Apart from personally experimenting, it was all dependent on what the first ghost said.
"It won't lie to me!" Lian Yun could only retort with this sentence.
That ghost had preyed on Lian Yun's will to survive, thus manipulating her.
"Who is that ghost? We've known each other for a while. Why don't you tell us everything, and we can analyze it," Yuan Yuan steered the conversation.
However, Lian Yun didn't fall for it. She shouted, "Don't try to trick me! Even if you stay here, so what? I don't believe you can kill the wolves every night!"
"She's beyond saving. Stop talking, save your breath for the fight with the wolves later." Seeing Lian Yun's state, Zhu Yilian pulled Yuan Yuan, stopping her from speaking further.
Yuan Yuan also realized that Lian Yun was beyond saving and sighed softly, returning to the sofa.
Lian Yun no longer cared about everyone's attitude towards her. She had only one obsession: rebirth!
