Chapter 0875 – It’s Not Good to Talk Bad About People Behind Their Backs
Chen Ge had seen a lot of gift boxes, but this was the first time he had seen one like this that seemed to have been drenched in blood.
”Is this what Zhang Ya was going to give to someone else? Or which ungrateful asshole gave it to Zhang Ya?”
With such a dirty gift box on the clean and tidy bed sheets, anyone could tell that the owner of the gift box cared very much about this gift.
Standing in the middle of the most terrifying forbidden area of the Ghost School, surrounded by wailing and despairing monsters, Chen Ge surprisingly did not feel scared at this moment, but instead, a special emotion arose.
”In the past, when Zhang Ya sent me love letters with blood, candies made from souls, and hair-bound muppets, I still felt a little unacceptable in my heart, but today, when I saw this blood-red gift box on Zhang Ya’s bed, I actually felt sour.”
Surrounded by malice, Chen Ge stood alone in the deepest part of the forbidden zone, the people traveling with him outside were highly tense, keeping an eye on Chen Ge at all times, ready to rescue him if there was the slightest movement, how could they have guessed that Chen Ge’s mind was actually thinking about these things at this time.
From their perspective, Chen Ge’s face, which had been calm all along, suddenly became grave and his brows were slightly furrowed, as if something unanticipated had happened.
”Should I open it and take a look? It’s not good to open someone else’s gift privately, but Zhang Ya isn’t really someone else to me anymore, and she hasn’t awakened yet, so it shouldn’t be a problem for me to take a look for her.”
Chen Ge was a little conflicted in his heart, and just as his hands touched the gift box, the knot at the top of the box slipped off by itself.
”I haven’t even made a move yet ……,” Chen Ge looked back at the shadow, then slowly opened the lid of the box.
Nothing unusual appeared in the dormitory, and the sound of a heart beating came from the lid of the box, Chen Ge attached himself to look at it, and a blood-red tutu was placed in the gift box.
”This is a gift?”
There was also a greeting card right above the dress, Chen Ge picked up the card, on it was just a very simple sentence.
”Merry Christmas, baby girl, your mom and I missed you and prepared a new dress for you.”
The gift should have been given to her by Zhang Ya’s parents, in this room full of malice and despair, this small box was Zhang Ya’s most precious thing.
Looking at the dress in the box, Chen Ge seemed to see Zhang Ya’s beating heart, wrapped in a trace of warmth under that cold shell.
”This is Zhang Ya’s most precious thing, but when I look at it, why does my heart feel a little hard?” Chen Ge gently put down that greeting card, his fingers crossed the tutu, which was stained with blood, those blood marks were irregularly distributed, some were deep, some were shallow, and the corners of the gift box also had traces of being crushed by impact, so it looked wrinkled.
”The gift box was specifically placed on a clean bed by Zhang Ya, these indentations couldn’t have been made by her, it’s estimated that in reality, when Zhang Ya saw the gift box for the first time, the box became what it is now, reddish colored by blood and full of traces of collision and crushing.” Chen Ge didn’t know what had happened to Zhang Ya’s parents who had sent the gift box, but the fact that the box could become a secret in the deepest recesses of Zhang Ya’s heart already said a lot.
There seemed to be something else in the box besides the tutu and the greeting card, pressed underneath the skirt, but Chen Ge didn’t bother to casually rummage through it.
He re-covered the gift box and looked back at his shadow: “I’m sorry, I’m a person with a rather stupid mouth and I know how to go about it, I have no way to promise you anything, I can only tell you that as long as I’m here, you won’t be lonely, I’ll come and accompany you in the future.”
Carefully holding the gift box in his arms, Chen Ge was thinking of handing it over to Zhang Ya, but he realized that the bottom of the gift box and the bed sheet were stuck together.
Upon closer inspection, the bottom of the gift box was filled with the woman’s long hair, and those hair strands seemed to possess life, fixing the gift box on top of the bed, and apart from Chen Ge, anything that came close would be penetrated by the black hair.
”Careless, I can’t believe I didn’t see it at first, fortunately she has no ill will towards me.” Chen Ge no longer forced himself, he put the gift box back to its original position, ready to wait for Zhang Ya to wake up and let him decide for himself.
Strangely enough, when he put the gift box back on the bed, the closet next to him suddenly made a sound, as if someone was deliberately trying to attract his attention.
”There’s something in the closet?”
This place was a forbidden area among forbidden areas, and Chen Ge didn’t dare to be careless as he slowly approached the cabinet door and pulled it open a little bit.
As the door panel was opened, a muppet fell out of the cabinet.
This ragdoll was very ugly, it couldn’t be said to be completely made of cloth, it looked more like a few patches were sewn on a living person with hair.
”What is it?”
The muppet’s eyes were permeated with light, and he seemed to have no control over his body, with only one finger to move.
”What are you trying to tell me?” Chen Ge vaguely felt that this Muppet was trying to express something to him, he didn’t venture close to that Muppet, instead, he dragged the Muppet’s legs, came to the door, and met up with Xu Yin before crouching down next to the Muppet.
After leaving Zhang Ya’s dormitory, that Muppet seemed to come to life, his eyes became more animated, and he used the only finger he had to gesture at Chen Ge.
”Boss, did you bring this out of the dormitory?” Bai Qiulin and Xu Yin guarded Chen Ge’s side, both of them looked at the ragdoll on the ground with curiosity, it was the first time they had seen such a processed soul.
”It seems to be someone who bullied Zhang Ya.” As soon as Chen Ge finished saying this, the ragdoll on the ground desperately wiggled his fingers as if he had been wronged.
Seeing this abnormal behavior of his, Chen Ge was a bit curious, he pointed to the ground beside the ragdoll, “Write directly on the ground with blood on it, I can see it.”
Muppet was a bit hesitant, what he wanted to say seemed like he couldn’t let too many people know.
Under Muppet’s repeated insistence, Chen Ge and Xu Yin used their backs to block the others’ line of sight, “Now, you can compare.”
The Muppet’s fingers slid quickly, and Chen Ge tried to decipher the Muppet’s words – Take me away, I know her secret.
”Make a deal with me?” Chen Ge was exasperated and laughed, this Muppet even wanted to use Zhang Ya’s secret as a condition, he was about to remove one of the Muppet’s arms to make the other party wake up a bit when the Muppet’s finger started writing on the ground again.
”I can smell her scent lingering on you, but I’ve been observing since you walked in the door, she seems to have fallen into a deep slumber, otherwise she would have killed me if she knew I still retained my consciousness!”
”All who come near her die horribly, and you are no exception! I know you are afraid! Take me away! I know her well enough to know how to get rid of her!”
”You may not feel it now, but she’s using you and won’t hesitate to kill you when she’s drained your value! Those muppets are where you’ll end up!”
”Don’t be deceived by her appearance, she’s the most horrifyingly severe ghost, an inescapable nightmare, and a complete madman!”
”Trust me! I was the first principal of this school, and that woman killed the real door pusher! She is the true enemy of the will of the Ghost School!”
Muppet’s eyeballs danced slightly, looking very excited, he finished writing and looked at Chen Ge blearily, the expected expression of Chen Ge’s surprise didn’t appear, instead, the atmosphere was a bit weird.
