In Room 214 at X University, Xiao Mingyang, Qi Chao, Li Yunliang, and the taciturn, unsettling Luo Yufeng gather around a candle to tell horror stories after lights-out, unaware that from outside, only three shadows can be seen. Li Yunliang begins with a story about a dead man writing horror fiction, frightening Qi Chao because of his own experience as a writer. Later, Qi Chao dreams of Luo Yufeng, whose online handle is "Ren Zhong Feng," and discovers that Luo stole his manuscript. Luo also curses Li Yunliang under the pretext of "discussing ways to die," and Li Yunliang really does jump to his death. Luo then curses Qi Chao to be "run over by a car," and Qi Chao is crushed by a toy car. Finally, Xiao Mingyang tells a story about someone who died in their dorm, revealing the truth that he himself has been dead for a long time. In the end, Luo Yufeng descends into madness.
