Chapter 0798 – Upside Down Hourglass
Zhu Long didn’t notice his abnormality in the slightest, he didn’t name the boy and the girl, but looked at him as if he had experienced something similar himself.
”Hey!” Wang Yicheng was very timid, he realized that Zhu Long was as if he was possessed, he directly reached out and pushed the other party as if he was possessed.
The confused color of Zhu Long’s eyes instantly disappeared, he looked at the few people around him, and suddenly laughed: “Did it scare you guys, I was also shocked the first time I heard this segment, you know what? This segment actually has a second half, I have a rough impression in my mind, but I can’t remember how.”
”There’s a second half?”
”Yeah, but I gave it a miss.” Zhu Long hemmed and hawed, “Why are you all looking at me like that? It’s just a segment I read elsewhere, it’s not a weird story that happened in our academy.”
Zhu Long realized that everyone else was still staring at him and the smile on his face slowly disappeared, “You guys don’t believe me? Our school is not a medical college ……”
”Our school is a comprehensive university with three medical majors. Because of the weak faculty, there are very few students, and you can barely see them during the week, but they have three separate labs in the lab building.” Although everyone was a freshman, Zhang Torch knew the school very well and knew a lot of information that the others didn’t know.
”Our school has an autopsy room?” Zhu Long was dumbfounded, “I’m just talking casually, you guys shouldn’t take it seriously.”
”Our paranormal research club is here to find the truth, whether it’s true or not, we’ll know when we go to the scene.” Chen Ge was also interested in the story that Zhu Long told, Zhu Long used to be a gangster, and had even entered a juvenile detention center because of an argument with the city police, his past was very similar to the bad boy in his story, coupled with his strange behavior just now, it would be hard for Chen Ge not to be suspicious.
”Zhu Long also doesn’t have any memories of that last summer vacation after high school graduation, some things might have happened during that summer vacation.” Chen Ge had obtained many clues from these kids, and the next step was to enter the school to verify them.
”It’s gratifying to me that everyone can actively participate, let’s go to those places you just mentioned tonight to check them out.” Chen Ge rushed at Zhang Torch, “Let’s go to the forest you mentioned first, you saw the senior who was going to take a break from school with your own eyes, what happened to him is most likely true.”
”Okay, you guys follow me.” Torch hung his head low, it seemed to suck the light out of his face as he walked, doing so would hide the scars on his face.
He was very familiar with the school, not like a new student at all, but it was able to be seen that that familiarity was soaked into his bones, as if he originally belonged to this school.
There weren’t many people left in the small square at this point, and not many noticed the few of them.
Even if bystanders saw them, they wouldn’t be suspicious, at most they would just be curious, after all, all the members in Chen Ge’s club were relatively different.
That forest was far away from the small square, Chen Ge just took this opportunity to familiarize himself with the school’s terrain.
The West Campus was very large, and they still couldn’t see the boundary after walking for ten minutes.
”Over there is an artificial lake, because of a previous drowning incident, the school prohibits approaching it at night, so we have to go around a little further.” Zhang Torch pointed at the darkness in the distance, if he hadn’t informed him in advance, Chen Ge wouldn’t have known that it was actually a lake.
The surface of the water was calm and without any light, rather than being a lake, it was more like a black hole that swallowed everything.
After walking for a few more minutes, Zhang Torch stopped, “The girl’s body was found in these woods.”
The campus at night was very scary, luckily both sides of the road were full of streetlights, and the light put a few people slightly at ease.
”There used to be no streetlights here, it was only after the accident that the university installed lights on both sides of this path.” Zhang Torch was the first to enter the woods, and Chen Ge followed closely behind.
He was very close to Zhang Torch and could clearly feel that Zhang Torch had relaxed a lot after entering the woods.
Perhaps it was because no one could see his scarred face clearly in the place where the light was blocked by the woods.
”This place is nothing special.” There was still a bit of fear in the hearts of the several people when they first entered the woods, worrying about what to do if they really met that girl. But after staying for a while, the few people felt a bit bored.
”Teacher Bai, that weird story should be fake, the woods look normal, there’s not a trace of a murder having happened.” Zhou Tu wanted to leave, he saw Chen Ge crouching in front of a tree hole and staring blankly, he walked over in confusion, “Teacher Bai, what are you looking at?”
Chen Ge didn’t pay attention to Zhou Tu and said without looking back, “Zhang Torch, in that strange story you mentioned, was the girl’s head found in the tree hole?”
”En.” Zhang Torch was slightly surprised, but on second thought, Chen Ge was a school teacher, so it was normal for him to know this.
”There was once a human head hidden in this tree hole?” Wang Yicheng staggered back a step, he was the least bold among the few.
”Don’t run around, there are still hairs of the dead hanging from the branches behind you.” Zhang Torch gently supported Wang Yicheng to prevent him from falling.
”Don’t scare him, even if a murder has happened in this place, it’s not as evil as the weird stories say.” Zhou Tu didn’t believe in evil, he just wanted to leave now.
”Xiao Zhou, the factual original is even more terrifying than you imagined.” Chen Ge was not ready to tell Zhou Tu and the others for the time being that he had seen an identical tree hole in the East Campus and that there was a human head stuffed inside.
”The east and west campuses are indeed similar in some ways, there’s just one thing that I don’t quite understand, they were both equally involved in accidents, so why would the girl live in the east campus while the boy she likes would be in the west campus? By what criteria did the school master assign these students?”
The difference between the female ghost of the tree hole and Zhang Torch was that one kept her sanity and looked just like an ordinary person, while the other was twisted by hatred, with an unresolvable resentment in her eyes.
”The students of the East and West campuses have completely different mental states. The students in the West Campus are much sunnier and more enthusiastic, possessing many positive and active emotions, while the students in the East Campus are haunted by negativity, like half-human, half-ghosts.”
After pondering for a while, Chen Ge remembered a certain oil painting in the oil painting is.
By removing the despair and negativity from the door, was it possible for the door to return to normal?
The current situation of the two campuses was similar to the scene shown in the oil painting, with the West Campus transporting all the negativity through the garbage disposal station and transporting it to the East Campus, keeping the place normal at all times.
These two campuses were like an hourglass, and that garbage disposal station was the small opening in the middle of the hourglass.
”I seem to understand what the owner of the school is going to do.”
Chen Ge put his hand into the hole in the tree, which had already been cleaned, and there was nothing inside.
