Chapter 0882 – What Color is Fate
The blood-colored eye hanging above the ghost school split in the middle and transformed into a huge mirror that enveloped the entire ghost school.
The surface of the mirror was blood-red, this side of the mirror was the blood-colored world behind the door, and on the other side of the mirror was the East-West Campus that the painter had fictionalized.
”The east and west campuses are only constructed by the painter using the remaining memories of the students, when the school’s will is heavily damaged, the east and west campuses that he has spent a lot of effort to build will naturally be affected as well.”
Chen Ge tilted his head and looked at the mirror in the sky, and the girl sitting on the top floor of the laboratory building on the other side of the mirror did the same.
”Chang Wenyu?”
A name crossed Chen Ge’s mind, the girl looked completely different from what Chen Ge had imagined.
In the movie that Chang Lone had made, Chang Wenyu possessed many kinds of personalities, but by and large, she was a quiet and cute girl.
This should be what Chang Lone had in mind for Chang Wen Yu, and he, as a brother, actually didn’t know his sister, and for various reasons, this led to Chen Ge being misled.
The real Chang Wenyu was a girl that people would not want to get close to if they took a look at her. Her left eye had been gouged out, leaving only a dark hole, and her right eye seemed to be burning with flames, hiding a kind of insanity that had been suppressed to the limit. There is nothing in the world that can restrain them, not even themselves.
In contrast, the painter is the other extreme, he did not say a word, silent like a dead sea.
Even if the drawing board was shattered, even if the school district of the things he had painstakingly constructed was collapsing, even if the school’s will had suffered a heavy blow, his expression had never changed since the beginning.
The painter and Chang Wenyu were two extremes, when the will of the ghost school was in big trouble, and the entire ghost school was exposed to the blood-colored city, these two people, one of them looked down at his drawing board, seemingly recalling the paintings that he had once drawn with it, the other sat on the edge of the building looking up to the sky on the other side of the mirror as if admiring this rare chaotic scene.
”Two crazy people.” Chen Ge’s gaze had moved from the girl to the boy, and he was now certain that there was definitely some sort of connection between the painter and Fan Yu.
They had the exact same face, only their bodies were slightly different, Fan Yu kept his head down and was slightly hunched over probably because of his low self-esteem, while the painter looked a little more ordinary.
”I’ve seen the Fan Yu outside the door with my own eyes, and I’ve even taken him to eat and paint, I didn’t expect something like this to really happen.” Chen Ge couldn’t take his eyes off the painter, he really couldn’t understand, the Fan Yu outside the door was obviously still alive, so why would there be a “Fan Yu” in the world behind the door, and both of them had completely different personalities, and their abilities were even more radically different.
”It’s really that child.” The old principal also recognized Fan Yu, and on his face, besides being surprised, there was also a trace of guilt.
”Principal, you’re sure that this matter of Fan Yu being bullied at school has nothing to do with you, right?” Chen Ge pulled the principal to his side.
”I’m the principal of Mureyang Middle School, anything that happens in the school has something to do with me, how could I not be responsible for him being bullied?” The old principal did not understand Chen Ge’s words.
”What I mean is, did you do anything that directly or indirectly hurt him, such as when he asked you for help but you ignored it because you were too busy ……”
”If he had asked me for help, this tragedy wouldn’t have happened.” The old principal also looked at Fan Yu, “He’s a good boy.”
”Since Fan Yu’s bullying has nothing to do with you, our plan will not be affected.” Chen Ge’s eyes were firm, “I will do everything I can to make you the principal of the ghost school and dominate the will of the ghost school. You’ve seen the situation here, none of them can bring redemption and relief to the children, only you can.”
”I can’t do it either, every child has their own obsession, it’s too hard to free them.”
”At least you won’t let them go astray and suffer more harm.” Chen Ge said seriously, “There’s no one better than you, Principal, you can treat this place as a second Twilight Sun Middle School.”
”Alright, I’ll try my best to give it a try.” The old principal had a bitter smile on his face, he was only a half-red, while all of his competitors were top-notch red.
”There are thirteen paintings in the drawing room, representing thirteen people who have the qualifications to become a gate pusher, most of them don’t need to be cared about, we only need to focus on the painter and Chang Wenyu.” Chen Ge had been planning since he entered the Ghost School, and now it was time for the most crucial part of his plan.
”Then what are we going to do next?” The old principal was a little nervous.
”Let’s find a safe place to stay first, Chang Wenyu dared to count the will of the Ghost School, it’s very likely that she made a deal with some monster in the Scarlet City, this Ghost School is going to be a big mess, we have to preserve our strength.” Chen Ge told the students following him to stay together as they went along the corridor to find a safe place.
The blood-colored fog washed over the ghost school recklessly, and the mirror overhead shrouded the campus, only barely keeping the monsters in the blood-colored city out.
However, this blood-colored mirror was made up of the will of countless students, and when the will was broken, a total collapse was only a matter of an instant.
On the east and west campuses on the other side of the mirror, more and more students recalled their lost memories, and all sorts of negative emotions began to pour in, as one bloody handprint after another surfaced on the walls between the east and west campuses, and all sorts of horrifyingly weird and bizarre things began to play out.
”This is what they really look like, behind every good memory there are countless injuries and despair, fate is so fair and cruel.” Chang Wenyu shook her legs as she happily watched everything.
”Fate?” The painter slowly looked up, his lips moved slightly as he uttered a few words, “Do you know what color fate is?”
”I don’t know, probably red, I like red.” Chang Wen Yu looked back at the painter, just by listening to the tone of the two men’s conversation, those who didn’t know would be afraid to think that they were close friends.
”Fate is white, whatever paint you put on it, it becomes whatever color it is.” The painter’s voice was calming.
”So you tampered with their memories privately with the help of the Ghost School’s will? Preserving only the good moments for them? How do you know that’s what they wanted? And what qualifications do you have to tamper with someone’s most precious thing?” Chang Wenyu’s memories seemed to have been tampered with by the painter as well, which should have been one of the reasons for their clash: “Don’t think that just because the person most recognized by the Ghost School’s will is you, you consider yourself the God of this school!”
Facing Chang Wenyu’s rebuke, the painter did not retort, he just lowered his head and picked up the broken drawing board, “Where is there any God in the world behind the door? Even if there is, it’s just the devil occasionally having a good heart.”
As he finished the last word, a pungent smell of blood emanated from somewhere on the drawing board.
