Chapter 0808 – Roommates
”There’s someone in the cubicle!”
The moment he saw the black leather shoes, Chen Ge remembered Mr. Bai from the East Campus, and the other party was wearing such a pair of pure black leather shoes.
”You guys stay back for now.”
Chen Ge took two steps back as he stuck Lin Si Si’s cell phone into the cubicle gap and took a quick picture.
Looking down at his cell phone, what Chen Ge was worried about didn’t appear, there was only a pair of leather shoes in the cubicle, there was no hidden “person”.
”Lin Si Si’s cell phone can take pictures of severe ghosts and some special things, there’s nothing on the photo, which means there’s only a pair of shoes in the cubicle, but if there’s no one in the cubicle, how did the door of the cubicle get locked?”
The toilet cubicle door could only be locked from the inside, and this pair of black leather shoes was placed in the same position as if there was a person standing inside, not like it was shoved in from the outside.
”Teacher, could you be looking at it wrong, who would run to the top floor of a school building to use the restroom alone at night? Thinking about it makes me feel} human.” The memories in Zhu Long’s mind had loosened up, he remembered something, hazy, there was no way to make it clear, but it did affect him, causing some changes to appear in him that no one had noticed, for example, he began to keep his distance from the other club members, preferring to stay by Chen Ge’s side, as if Chen Ge was the same kind of person as him.
”You guys guard here, if anyone else approaches, notify me immediately.”
Chen Ge shook the cubicle door with force, using violence to open it.
The narrow cubicle had been painted with many ghostly faces using oil paints, and standing inside, it was as if he was being stared at by many people.
”Why is there a pair of leather shoes placed there?”
Chen Ge didn’t find anything unusual in the first cubicle, he came back to the second cubicle, and with his previous experience, this time he directly took out his cell phone and took a picture of the cubicle gap.
The photo showed that a pair of shoes was similarly placed in the second compartment, except that instead of black leather shoes, this pair of shoes was a pair of worn-out blue sneakers.
”The placement is the same, is there something to this?”
Chen Ge checked the first six compartments in turn, there was a pair of shoes in each compartment, all of them were men’s shoes, there were sneakers, traveling shoes, and flat shoes, the sizes were all different, they should belong to different people.
”The black leather shoes in the first compartment are very similar to Mr. Bai’s shoes, they should be worn by adults, the shoes in the other five compartments are all worn by students, does each pair of these shoes represent a person?”
”When Lin Si Si was being teased by the whole class, could the owner of these pairs of shoes be the person who targeted Lin Si Si the most at that time?”
The biggest difference between a stern ghost and a living person was that they were made up of obsessions and negative emotions, and adjectives like understanding and kindness were completely irrelevant to them.
Regardless of what kind of person Lin Sisi was in life, the moment he became a stern ghost, his body and mind would definitely be consumed by hatred and grudges, this was one of the stern ghost’s obsessions, the root that supported his existence.
Confining the person who had caught him or her in the cubicle to keep him or her company, with Chen Ge’s understanding of the severe ghosts, it was very likely that they would do such a thing.
”Teacher! Someone is coming towards this side of the school building!” Zhou Tu helped Wang Yicheng stand in front of the toilet door and shouted towards Chen Ge, “They seem to be coming from that direction of the experimental building!”
”Running towards us?” Chen Ge grabbed the time to walk to the door of the last cubicle, he subconsciously took out his cell phone and prepared to go take a picture, but he was surprised to find that the door panel of the seventh cubicle had been dismantled.
”Where’s the seventh door?” According to Chen Ge’s previous guess, the door related to Lin Si Si was most likely to be in the toilet, but he had searched the toilet and found nothing.
”Calm down, can’t panic.” Chen Ge lightly bit his tongue, he knew that those people downstairs still needed some time to go upstairs, “Each bloody door corresponds to a door pusher, which means that the door is the only ……”
Touching his fingers to the door frame, Chen Ge realized that the door shaft of the seventh compartment was broken, “The door of this compartment was violently smashed open from the inside!”
He looked down to the interior of the compartment, there were no shoes placed in the seventh compartment, only two blood-red shoe prints.
These two shoe prints were one in front of the other, just like a person who was walking towards the door.
”If each pair of shoes represents a person, is the person in this last compartment running out?” Chen Ge jerked his head to look around, and he didn’t know if it was a psychological effect or something else, but it was as if all those ugly and weird people on the walls had come to life, and their expressions had become different from what they were just a moment ago.
”All the despair and negativity in the West Campus has been transported to the East Campus, and the real ‘Blood Gate’ is presumably in the toilets on the top floor of the East School’s teaching building.”
One problem hadn’t been solved yet, and a new one appeared, blue veins rose on Chen Ge’s forehead, and he bit his tongue fiercely to keep himself awake, “One step at a time, I at least know that I’m slowly approaching the truth.”
”Teacher! They’ve gone upstairs! Let’s find a place to hide first!” Zhou Tu’s tone was anxious, he was inexplicably panicked, “The people who entered the building just now didn’t seem to be teachers or students of the school, and they were walking in a strange posture!”
”Strange walking posture?” Chen Ge immediately realized that it was not good and greeted Zhang Torch and Zhu Long and ran out of the toilet, “Which side did they go up the building from?”
”The hallway near the toilet side!”
”Good! Let’s go down from the other side! Be careful, don’t be seen by them!” Chen Ge didn’t have the intention to fight the other side for the time being, and ran to the first hallway, but when he passed by Wang Yicheng’s side, he suddenly stopped.
His pupils narrowed, and his gaze landed on Wang Yicheng’s shoes.
”Blue sneakers?”
The shoes that Wang Yicheng was currently wearing on his feet were exactly the same as the shoes in the second toilet cubicle!
”The shoes in the toilet compartment were all men’s shoes …… “Chen Ge thought back carefully, and he suddenly realized that those shoes in the toilet were exactly the same as the shoes of the students in the 413 dormitory.
”There are a total of six people in Dormitory 413, the toilet on the top floor of the teaching building is seven compartments, six people correspond to six compartments, and there is also a compartment with black leather shoes, representing the teacher, which just makes up seven people.” Chen Ge frowned: “Why does Lin Sisi hate his roommate so much? Didn’t he specifically run back to the dormitory to remind his roommate not to go near the toilet?”
Chen Ge rubbed his temples fiercely, he had too much to think about, “The East Campus is chaotic and disorganized, the West Campus is more like a souvenir in a glass bottle, framed in the last few days of the enrollment report, repeating itself over and over again, if you want to know the truth, you have to compare and contrast the same scene on the East and West Campuses!”
”The West Campus is too perfect, the beauty is not real at all, it’s like a dream made by a child, in comparison the East Campus seems much more realistic.”
Chen Ge’s gaze moved away from Wang Yicheng’s shoes, and he had already made up his mind to take everyone on a trip to the East Campus.
”I have no choice now but to search for memories in my dreams and the truth in reality.”
