Chapter 0854 – Far-sightedness?
”Old Master, don’t say that, what’s in the past is in the past, we have to live in the present.”
Chen Ge coughed dryly, he really didn’t expect to meet the old principal in the Psychic Ghost School.
His entry into the ghost school this time was just an accident, fortunately, he kept his good habit of bringing all his employees with him wherever he went, many hands make light work, and he might be able to use the special ability of a certain employee at some point, and even if he didn’t have much of an ability, he could still be courageous by bringing them with him.
Under all the coincidences, such a situation was formed, which seemed to be accidental and like an inevitability, messing up his own scalp a bit.
”When you get older, it’s easy to think back to the past, seeing you I remembered your parents, they really helped me a lot.” The old principal felt a little guilty, “Actually, I noticed you when you first entered Twilight Sun Middle School, and it was also from that time that I had the idea of rescuing Snow Cherry from the Ghost School.”
”You don’t have to care about that.” Chen Ge worried about Sakura Red hurting the old principal and took a few steps forward.
”You let me talk, there are some things that are bottled up in my heart that I won’t be able to spit out.” The old principal gently shook his head, “The Psychic Ghost School is very dangerous, I know that I don’t have a good chance of rescuing Sakura by myself, and if I can’t come back, something will definitely happen to the other children in that class who have no one to take care of them, and I can’t rest assured that they’re not in good hands, so that’s why I’ve asked you to take care of them.”
The old man paused for a moment, “Your parents helped me and I used you, and now you even took the initiative to run into such a dangerous place just to find me, I really don’t know what to say.”
”Headmaster, although this place is dangerous, there’s no need to be too desperate.” Chen Ge’s gaze leapt over the old principal to look at Sakura Red, who was hiding behind the old man, “I came in here after making all the preparations.”
He flipped through the comic book, the yellowed pages made a sound, and bright red blood flowed out from it, there was actually a page in this seemingly ordinary comic book that was blood red.
”Boom! Boom! Boom!” Crashing sounds resounded all around as a pale arm reached out from the pages of the book, a strand of black hair still tied to her wrist.
The smell of blood in the air became stronger, fingers, small arms, shoulders, a woman without a head crawled out of the comic book, and that wasn’t all, she reached into the pages again, fumbled around halfway through the book, and took a woman’s head out of it.
The hem of her blood-red skirt fell to the ground, and the female ghost held her head, standing quietly to Chen Ge’s left.
”Don’t be afraid, they are all on their own.” Chen Ge unzipped his backpack, put away the comic book, and took out a pair of blood-red high heels from the deepest part of his backpack.
He casually placed the shoes on the desk next to him, but the classroom inexplicably resounded with the sound of “thump” and “thump” footsteps, and one blood-red shoe print after another surfaced on the ground, and finally the shoe print stopped on Chen Ge’s right side.
”Xu Yin.”
Chen Ge softly shouted Xu Yin’s name, the pungent smell of blood hit his face, Xu Yin, who no longer hid her nature, looked at the old principal with a crooked head, and the entire classroom seemed to be wrapped in a sea of blood!
Not counting Bai Qiulin, Chen Ge was surrounded by three reds!
”Are these enough?”
The old principal didn’t even expect Chen Ge to bring in so many red coats, his eyes widened, “It’s enough, just be careful, we ……”
”I know it’s not enough.” Chen Ge didn’t wait for the old principal to finish before he spoke again, “That’s why I entered the Psychic Ghost School in advance, and I’ve already negotiated the terms with the three red coats in this school, and since we all have common interests, they’ve already agreed to cooperate with me.”
”In other words, there will be six or six Redcoats to help us?” The old principal was well aware of how terrifying the Redcoats were, they were synonymous with despair, cruelty and pain, if he were to encounter them alone, he couldn’t think of a second end other than his soul falling apart.
”The six redcoats are just pawns that I use to confuse my enemies, my real bottom card ……” Chen Ge twisted his head to look at his own shadow, and his gaze became soft: “It’s above the redcoats!”
Hearing the words that came out of Chen Ge’s mouth, the old principal began to doubt his own ears, but he didn’t dare to ask either, he didn’t even have the courage to repeat those words.
This young man in front of him was too terrifying, and if he hadn’t seen the three redcoats standing right next to him with his own eyes, how could the old principal not believe what he was saying?
He himself was just a half-body red coat, and the two sides were simply not on the same level.
”Now, what percentage chance of victory do you think we have?” Chen Ge stood in front of the old man with a serious expression, not like he was joking at all.
”If that’s the case, then there’s a ninety percent chance that we can safely escape from the Ghost School.”
”Only ninety percent? Still just escaping the ghost school?” Chen Ge frowned slightly, counting Zhang Ya who was still sleeping, they only had a 90% probability of escaping, it seemed that they still couldn’t confront it head on, they had to obey the school’s rules and maximize the use of the school’s will.
”You can listen to my plan first.” The old principal had already treated Chen Ge as one of his own: “Your father didn’t tell me why this ghost school appeared, he only told me that the door in the ghost school was always looking for bullied and unhelped children, and Snow Sakura entered behind the door because of that. He had studied the door closely and found something very special; the school grounds within the door were actually a patchwork of several schools, mixed with the memories of all the bullied children.”
”But what does this have to do with your plan?” Chen Ge didn’t quite understand.
”Of course it has something to do with it, among those children’s memories, there is this place, Mureyang Middle School.” The old principal sighed: “This is my dereliction of duty, in the past, something very unpleasant had happened in Mureyang Middle School, there was a child who dropped out of school because of this, and was later sent to the countryside by his adoptive father, that child was very honest, and even though he did not do well in his studies, he was exceptionally good at drawing and painting.”
”Painting?”
”What’s wrong?”
”Nothing, you continue.” Chen Ge waved his hand.
”By coincidence, the Twilight Sun Middle School in the Psychic Ghost School is an abandoned school, and there is a gaping hole hidden in the school, like a scar in the heart of the owner of the memory that can never be healed.”
”Where is that gaping hole?”
”The abandoned well in the back playground, the well that leads directly to the outside of the ghost school.” Every word the old principal said next surprised Chen Ge: “After we leave this school, we will enter a city filled with blood and fog. We have to keep walking west, no matter what we see, don’t turn around, and don’t respond to whoever calls your name. Keep walking until we enter an abandoned mental hospital, in the third building of that mental hospital there is a broken window, once we enter that window we will be completely safe.”
”The third building of an abandoned mental hospital?” Chen Ge surprisingly felt a bit familiar as he listened, the old principal’s description somewhat resembled the third sick building where Men Nan was located!
”Yes, your father told me all of this, the first time I came to visit Snow Cherry was when your father brought me and slipped into the ghost school through that window. Unfortunately, later on, your parents disappeared and that door was overrun by some evil ghosts, and it was only when I went to break in with the thought of certain death that I realized there was no one there anymore.” The old principal sighed rather sadly, “Perhaps the heavens wanted me to accompany Snow Cherry as well.”
There were no such coincidences in the world, Chen Ge’s brain was racing.
Dr. Gao entered the Scarlet Metropolis and went crazy in a week, so it was impossible for the old principal to walk through the Scarlet Metropolis and walk from the third sickbay to the Psychic Ghost School with his ability alone!
Someone must be protecting him behind his back! Or rather there was something protecting him!
With reddened eyes, an answer surfaced in Chen Ge’s heart, and he clenched his teeth before he didn’t say those few words out loud.
The one who had told the old principal all the information about the Psychic Ghost School was Chen Ge’s father, and the one who had broken the window of the third sick building was likewise Chen Ge’s father!
”Why did he go through all the trouble of sending the old principal to the Psychic Ghost School?” Chen Ge clenched his fists, his gaze unintentionally swept towards the bloody sun outside the window, the will of despair condensed from countless negative emotions was boiling, those children could not be relieved, they were screaming in agony every moment, but no one could hear them, no one could understand them, and even more so, no one was willing to accompany them.
His pupils narrowed, Chen Ge suddenly thought of a possibility, “Could it be that he wants the principal of Mureyang Middle School to be the principal of the Psychic Ghost School?”
With his heart beating hard, Chen Ge held onto the edge of the table and took a deep breath before calming down.
