Chapter 0830 – Meeting each other
The ghost school had become different from before, the guys hiding in the shadows had all emerged, and they seemed to know that their chance had come.
”Teacher Bai, can I ask one more thing? The woman who left her breath on you, did she give you any hints?” Zhou Tu’s face was pale, and he had to rest for a while with every word.
”I don’t even know Chang Wenyu, much less how she left her breath on me.” Chen Ge didn’t want to continue this topic as he walked quickly towards the library.
”Keep it a secret from us?” Zhou Tu was being carried by Zhang Torch, his body was slowly dissipating, and it was probably difficult to even make it to the library.
”Think what you want ……,” Chen Ge smothered his head and just walked forward, and after walking out a few steps, he suddenly frowned.
He really didn’t know Chang Wenyu and wasn’t trying to hide anything, but Zhou Tu said it as if Chen Ge was deliberately hiding it.
Zhou Tu had been leaking information to Chen Ge, and just now was the first time he had opened his mouth to ask, and the first question he asked was related to Chang Wenyu.
This couldn’t be more normal in the eyes of others, and Chen Ge didn’t care at first, but the more he thought about it, the stranger he felt.
”Coincidence meets coincidence and ends up forming an accident, and the whole process, although it looks like there’s nothing wrong with it, it always feels like something isn’t quite right.” Chen Ge pondered in his heart, “Zhou Tu still has many secrets on him, but looking at him, it seems that he doesn’t have the time to come out with those things anymore.”
The painter was the culprit who had hurt him, if he really hated the painter that much, he would have said everything related to the painter instead of asking questions.
Maybe he really was just being thoughtless, but Chen Ge had to pay more attention.
The library was very close to the office building, and Chen Ge had a thrilling ride as they followed the grass to the entrance of the library.
”I’ve been to this place before, the front door is always locked, so if you want to go in, you can only use the side door or roll over the window. Damn, I’m remembering that bad memory again.” Zhang Torch had a bad impression of Chang Wenyu, after all, it was Chang Wenyu who betrayed him in the first place, shattering the only hope he had left.
With Zhang Torch leading the way, several people easily pried open the side door of the library and entered the house.
The library in the East Campus looked very shabby, the building seemed to be a mere decoration, both students and teachers rarely came here.
”It feels like a long time has passed, yet not much has changed in here, as if it was yesterday that she gouged out my left eye.” Zhang Torch walked in the forefront, his coat already basically stained red, “I once walked this path with her, technically she was considered my first love, and this is where we dated together.”
With a bitter smile on his face, Zhang Torch traced his fingers across the bookshelf next to him, “How could a date be chosen in a library at midnight? I should have thought of it, she never liked me, she was just using me.”
”That’s not necessarily true, the dating venue doesn’t mean anything.” Chen Ge and Zhang Torch walked side by side in front of them, “Teacher is a person who has been there, I’ve dated people in abandoned schools at midnight, mental hospitals, and underground corpse vaults, and she’s still deeply in love with me to this day.”
”The person you dated was also Chang Wenyu?” Zhou Tu’s gaze was puzzled, he didn’t finish the sentence but his eyes moved between Chen Ge and Chang Torch, “I can’t think of anyone else other than her who would come to a place like this for a date.”
Originally, it was nothing, but by Zhou Tu’s words, Zhang Torch in stopped in his tracks, he looked Chen Ge up and down, then shook his head, “Impossible, that woman doesn’t have the emotion or ability to love like that at all, she’s a monster.”
With a somewhat irritated mood, Zhang Torch took several steps forward alone.
The library was very quiet late at night, only the footsteps and heartbeats of his fellow travelers could be heard.
The entire building was sealed, with doors and windows closed tightly, but no odor could be smelled, which was not quite the same as outside.
”Go through this row of bookshelves, climb on top of them, step on the fence next to them, and you can go straight to the second floor without going through the stairs.” Zhang Torch remembered the events of that night vividly, all the details were not forgotten and deeply engraved in his mind.
”Why don’t we just take the stairs?” Zhu Long felt that Zhang Torch was not in a good mood and spoke in a low voice.
”I asked her this question at the time as well, and she said that an iron door had been installed on the stairs, and the door was piled up with clutter, so there was no way to get to the second floor.” Zhang Torch took the lead and climbed up the bookshelf, “I never suspected her at that time, so I didn’t go to the hallway to look, why don’t we go over there this time and take a look?”
”Let’s talk about it when we find the mirror.” Chen Ge didn’t want to cause trouble.
Several people followed what Zhang Torch said to the second floor of the library, and they hadn’t even gotten a few steps farther on the second floor when they heard footsteps coming from the end of the second floor corridor.
”It’s a familiar sound again, I also heard this footsteps when I came here that time, Chang Wenyu told me a story about the library ghost at that time and scared me, now that I think about it, this footsteps should belong to the librarian.” Zhang Torch signaled the others to follow him, “You guys follow me and don’t fall behind, follow what I said and you’ll be able to avoid a confrontation with the other side.”
”What’s it going to take? That voice is getting closer!”
”See the door to the second reading room on the second floor?” Zhang Torch pointed to a door not far away, “From now on, close your eyes and hold onto the wall towards there. No matter what you touch or hear, don’t open your eyes until we enter that door.”
”Will it work? What’s the difference between that and covering our ears?”
”Do what he says, the library’s manager is also one of the members of the art club, and he’ll paint everyone who sees him.” Zhou Tu was the first to close his eyes, and several others believed him.
In the end, Chen Ge was the only one left, and he listened to the slowly approaching footsteps and gestured towards his shadow before closing his eyes.
The sound of footsteps approached from far away, Chen Ge held onto the wall as they slowly moved forward, feeling like they would collide with someone else at any moment.
With their eyes closed, the surroundings were pitch black, and fear came in like a tidal wave.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, the other party didn’t seem to have noticed Zhang Torch and Zhou Tu, maintaining an even speed, but when they passed by Chen Ge, that footsteps suddenly disappeared.
”It stopped by my side?”
Chen Ge did not open his eyes and touched the wall to continue forward, only for the footsteps to resurface a few seconds later, heading towards the end of the corridor.
Pushing open the door to the second reading room, Chen Ge took a deep breath.
”What you guys went through, I went through it all that night, it feels like history repeating itself.” Zhang Torch closed the door to the reading room after waiting for everyone to enter, “If nothing else, the mirror is hidden in the last row of bookshelves.”
The truth was finally going to be revealed, but without waiting for Chen Ge to go over, a familiar figure walked out from beside the last row of bookshelves.
”I knew you guys could find this place.” The dark figure was carrying a large worn out backpack in his hands, he hung his head low and was a little hunched over.
