•The Last Supper

While everyone was still in shock after seeing the question being refreshed, a sudden sound appeared in the cabin.....

It sounded like sharp nails scratching across a wooden board.

"Wh-who?"

Everyone's hair rose. They looked around searching for the source of the sound.

In this terrifying setting, no one dared to fall away from the group, so they only looked around while remaining in place.

Soon, someone cried out desperately: "Behind! It's behind me! Help......."

The one who cried out was the bald man.

He was the only one who didn't move over to the answering wall to join the others.

For the entire time, he sat alone at the dining table. As if paralysed from his neck down, he remained huddled in the seat that he had selected.

The bald man had fainted earlier with fear because of Hunter A but now he was scared awake by the scratching sounds.

With his face coated with snot and tears, he cried out with panic: "Behind me. Help me! Save me, please!"

"But there's no one behind you..." Yu Yao said in a quiet voice.

"Yeah, there's no one........

When the bald man heard this, he cried even more fiercely.

No one dared to approach him. They could only desperately gesture at the bald man: "Don't just sit there! Hurry up and come over. Come here!"

"I can't move! This chair.......I can't move. It has trapped me!" The bald man was so panicked, his words were almost incoherent.

"You mean, you can't get off after sitting in the chair?"

"Yes. I can't......It wants me dead. It wants me to die!" The bald man cried.

Everyone fearfully backed away from the dining table. Only You Huo walked over.

"Brother?" Yu Wen called out.

He was originally going to grab You Huo to stop him from taking risks but when he thought of his brother's performance and his own miserable -1 point, he decided to just follow You Huo.

They walked behind the bald man and finally found the source of the sound-

On the back of the bald man's chair, sawdust scattered as the light-coloured core of the wood was exposed. It was as if there was an invisible hand scratching on the surface of the chair.

Yu Wen: "It's writing something?!"

You Huo hummed in agreement.

This great master was more patient towards the "ghost" than he was towards humans. He crossed his arms and waited on the side for it to finish.

After the other examinees in the room hesitated for a moment, they quickly rushed over and huddled behind You Huo.

"12! It's writing 12!" The tattooed man shouted out.

Soon after that, the sound of nail scratching against wood was heard coming from a nearby chair.

You Huo took a few steps to walk over and the large crowd behind him also shuffled with him. When he stopped his steps, the large crowd would also stop as if someone had suddenly stepped onto the brakes.

".........."

You Huo for a moment suspected that they were not taking a physics exam and was instead playing a game of Mother Hen.
