Chapter 0803 – Hope Hidden in the Deepest Depths of Despair
Zhu Long once again committed an offense, his expression was hideous and his eyes were filled with blood, but what made people feel strange was that apart from the blood in Zhu Long’s scarlet eyes, there were also tears.
He looked like he was in pain.
Several people combined their efforts to drag Zhu Long towards a place with fewer people, but in the process they still attracted the attention of some people, fortunately they did not chase after him.
”Zhu Long knocked over the dissecting table in the lab building, and the administrators of the lab building will most likely come after him. That’s not the worst, Zhu Long carved another Zhu character on the back of the dissecting table, this character will probably alert the people behind the school!”
Chen Ge was very cautious, whether things were exposed or not, he would think in the worst direction.
”Everything is normal on the surface of the West Campus, that’s because there’s ‘something’ keeping the school in order, transporting all the negativity to the East Campus. If those administrators saw the extra ‘Zhu’ character behind the autopsy table, they would definitely realize that a student is having problems.”
Accelerating his pace, Chen Ge wouldn’t bet on his opponent being a dumbass, all he could do now was to hurry and leave the scene.
”Teacher, let’s hurry and send him to the infirmary, he doesn’t look very sick, this kid must have hidden his true condition before joining the club, he might even have a history of mental illness!” Zhou Tu didn’t want to be with these strange club members for a moment, he was ready to send Zhou Tu to the infirmary and then go to the counselor to see if he could quit the club, if he really couldn’t then those two credits wouldn’t be needed, after all, compared to the credits, it’s still the little life that matters.
”You think he has mental problems?” Being on the run, Chen Ge didn’t have time to pretend to be a kind teacher anymore.
Slightly sideways, Chen Ge swept a glance at Zhou Tu, he had a smile on his face, but Zhou Tu felt a deep chill when he saw his smile, this white teacher in front of him seemed to be a dual personality, at times very warm, at other times people didn’t dare to get close to him.
”No, no, I’m just guessing, it’s too abnormal for a big living person to suddenly shout about killing or something.” Zhou Tu moved a step towards Wang Yicheng’s side.
”Zhou Tu, in any way, you’re not qualified to talk about him, in my opinion you’re the one who’s sickest in our society.” Chen Ge finished with a slight pause, maintaining his smile, “Except for me, of course.”
”What are you babbling about?” Zhou Tu was angry and afraid of Chen Ge, and his tone was not as good as before.
”You wouldn’t believe it even if I told you now.” Chen Ge grabbed Zhu Long and didn’t raise his head, “When I take you into the art club and show you those scenes in your dreams, you’ll probably become even more terrified than him.”
”For, why?” Zhou Tu didn’t feel like Chen Ge was joking.
”Because Zhu Long is just one of the backgrounds of this painting, while you are the one holding the brush.” Chen Ge had been in society for several years and had gone through the hellish grind of the black cell phone, the aura on him was completely different from these kids.
Zhou Tu did not dare to look at Chen Ge’s eyes, his right hand gently twitched, the muscles have been in advance of the brain “recall” something, this reaction is only a long time high-intensity painting people will have.
Holding his head with both hands, Zhu Long wailed and dry-heaved, his eyes protruding outward, and a trail of tears remained on his cheeks.
”This place isn’t remote enough, let’s go to the fence.” Chen Ge commanded Zhou Tu and Zhang Torch, and the three of them worked together to control Zhu Long.
”Teacher, are you really not taking him to the infirmary?” Zhang Torch was also a bit worried, as he looked at Chen Ge’s calm eyes, he always felt that Chen Ge hadn’t even thought about saving Zhu Long, he was just preparing to find a secluded place to bury Zhu Long.
”The infirmary is a place for healing, he’s not sick, he’s just getting back what belongs to him.” Chen Ge needed helpers, people who could really help, “Any solicitation has a price, when he gets his memories back, he will thank us.”
”I’m worried that he didn’t get his memories back and lost his life first, after all, memories can be recreated, but lives only come once.” Zhang Torch naturally said something like memories can be recreated without even realizing it himself.
”Life is only once?” Chen Ge came up to Zhang Torch and stared at his face, “Think back carefully to what happened in the hospital after the fire, are you sure that the fire only took away your skin?”
Wang Yicheng was the first to join the club, and although he also felt that Chen Ge was a bit scary at this moment, he still insisted that the “white teacher” in front of him was a good person.
”Let’s listen to teacher, I’ll come and help too.”
”Keep up, don’t fall behind.”
A few people only walked out a dozen meters before Zhu Long regained his senses, he gasped for breath, his eyes seemed a little brighter than before, “I’m fine, sorry for causing trouble for everyone.”
Zhang Torch and Zhou Tu loosened their hands, only Chen Ge still supported Zhu Long.
His chest was heaving and he was panting heavily, his face had a few wounds that he had dug out himself, and his hands had been scratched at some point.
”Did you remember anything?” Chen Ge raised his pink phone, and Zhu Long’s face turned pale as soon as he saw the girl on his desktop, a gasping look on his face, “The chat logs show that you guys are very much in love, or at least you unilaterally feel that way. Why are you acting so scared in the face of someone you love so much? What kind of girl is she in the end? What has she done to you?”
With every word Chen Ge opened his mouth, Zhu Long’s face paled, and if he hadn’t been assisted, he might have had trouble even standing.
”I don’t know, really! I’ve never sent these communication records, I don’t have any impression at all!”
”Then what do you know?” Chen Ge’s arm supporting Zhu Long slowly exerted itself as he glanced around warily.
”I only know that her name is Gao Jie, and that name came out of my head all of a sudden.”
”Looks like your desperate whacking of your head wasn’t useless at all, congratulations, you’re one step closer to the truth.” Chen Ge gently patted Zhu Long’s shoulder, trying to ease the other party’s tension, “Feeling better?”
”En, thank you teacher, I can already walk on my own.” Zhu Long wiped his face with his sleeve.
”I mean do you want to look at this cell phone again and retrieve more memories.” Chen Ge was curious to know how Zhu Long had gotten into this school, and only after finding the way in would he have a chance to find the way out.
The secrets of the school were hidden amongst the disappearing memories of the students, and while those disappearing memories were certainly full of despair, there was no way around it because hope was hidden there as well.
Four club members, four different experiences, if he could gain knowledge of their memories about this school, Chen Ge felt that he should be able to lift a corner of the veil of this school.
Zhu Long didn’t reject Chen Ge, and after he remembered the girl’s name, he already had a certain resistance to the contents of the cell phone.
With both eyes looking at the phone, Zhu Long’s gaze wandered between the sweet words and the cruel and bloody pictures, and after a moment, he dry-heaved again.
”Was she admiring herself while chatting with me? Did she already think of me as one of her works?”
