Chapter 32: The Red Coat


"When did you find out?"

After more than ten seconds, Xiumu said.

"From the first moment I saw the four of you, I started to be suspicious."

Retreating to the door, I distanced myself from Xiumu: "The area around Xinhu School is full of wasteland, no matter which direction you enter, there will definitely be mud under your feet, and in the classroom corridor where we meet, it is clean and clean, and there are only my shoe prints." ” "So it can be inferred that you didn't come in from the outside, but you were on campus yourself."

"So I won't believe it either the three of you or Sakurako."

Xiumu's face was gloomy, and he gradually lowered his head, the light was already dim, and it became even more terrifying to look at it: "You already knew that we were not human, why did you take the initiative to participate in our game?"

Why do you want to help us find Shen Meng?

” "Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, and I, an ordinary person with no special skills, can only use my brain more if I want to live here."

There was a smile on the corner of my mouth: "If you don't break your identity, playing with you is to win the initiative, so that you can be careless, relaxed, and feel fun, so you can't bear to kill me." ” As long as you can survive, what's the point of playing a few games with ghosts?

Xiumu's face became more and more ugly, and corpse spots of different sizes began to appear on his fair skin: "So you have been deceiving us all along?"

” "What?

Annoyed and angry?

I waved my hand: "It's not about cheating, it's just playing with you little ghosts." ” Hell knows how arrogant my attitude is now, completely hobbing meat.

Hearing my words, Hideki walked towards me step by step, his clothes becoming shabby, and there seemed to be blood flowing from his feet.

"Xiumu, in my opinion, you are the smartest of all the ghosts, don't do stupid things, since I have made everything clear, then naturally there is a way back for myself."

"Remember I asked your father's name, right?

Your surname is Wang, your full name is Wang Xiumu, and the school uniform on the second bed in the health room is yours.

There is also Xue Fei and Shen Meng, all traces of you can be found in this school, you are the victim five years ago, the soul that cannot be reborn after being cursed by Guo Junjie and dying. ” "Poor fellows, forever wandering in this gloomy ghost school, living in Guo Junjie's fear for the rest of your life."

"Actually, I sympathize with you, the original sins have long been atoned, and the soul has not yet been at peace.

Compared to the mistakes you made, this punishment is a little too cruel. ” Perhaps it was because I said that it was a sore spot, and Hideki stopped: "We don't need sympathy, you will soon become like us!"

” His voice was hoarse, and it was as if he was chewing something in his throat.

"Together, you will benefit, and if you fight, you can kill me and imprison my soul here, but before that, I have another proposal."

"Say."

"Let me help you liberate and help you become Buddhas."

"Just you?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

Seeing that Xiumu was deep in thought, and the corpse spots on his body retreated, my hanging heart slowly let go.

I should have won this life-threatening negotiation.

From the moment I received the notification of the optional mission in the Netherworld, I wondered why the mission would require a game on campus.

What game to play?

Who to play with?

How to play?

There can't be any other living people in a place where the gloomy atmosphere is, so the answer is simple, I'm going to play games with ghosts, and the more I play, the better.

At first, I did as I was told, but as the mystery of the campus slowly lifted, I found that there were more than one or two ghosts on campus, and there might be irreconcilable contradictions between them.

One side is the murderer who caused the whole tragedy, and the other side is just the victim who is imprisoned here.

If I expected it to be true, it was Guo Junjie who was hiding behind the scenes and controlling everything, Xiumu and Shen Meng were like clowns, and the purpose of their existence was just to perform for Guo Junjie, constantly repeating fear and despair to wash away their sins.

This unequal relationship made me smell of opportunity, and I decided to take the initiative and have a showdown with the ghost.

"The mistakes you have committed, the torture you have spent in the past five years day and night is enough to repay, and if you don't resist now, are you still ready to be enslaved for life and life, and be his puppet forever and ever?"

I've been involved in civil litigation cases and worked as a mediation lawyer, and although I was just trying to make ends meet, at least I learned how to convince others.

"You don't need to hesitate at all, you can kill me whenever you want, but if you miss this opportunity, you will never be able to change the fate of your captivity."

Hideki was finally moved by my words, and changed back to his normal appearance: "Let me believe that you are fine, but if you haven't broken the curse before dawn, then stay with us forever." ” "It's a deal."

I said that I wanted to help Xiumu purely by mouth, and I was not sure at all, in line with the idea that it would be possible to drag on for a while.

Anyway, it's a death to be a dead person, so it's better to gamble.

"To show your sincerity, can you let the red-dressed female ghost at the door leave?

These little tricks don't scare me.

Picking up her mobile phone to observe the movement outside the door at all times, the red skirt can no longer be seen in the lens, but it is difficult to ensure that she hides in a place where the camera can't shoot, and as soon as she opens the door, she is directly "touched and killed".

"Red dress?"

Hideki's expression was very strange: "It's the first time I've seen that thing in school." ” "Isn't she Shen Meng?!"

Things are still a little different from what I imagined.

"Shen Meng is dead, or she is dead tonight."

"What do you mean by that?"

Sighing, Xiumu made a bitter face: "A few of us are just weak thoughts, and we will be released by Guo Junjie every night to experience unbearable fear, just like a nightmare that keeps repeating, and the torture of our thoughts, unbearable dissipation represents death." ” "You are right, we are just clowns dancing in the palms of Guo Junjie's hands, without any freedom, and we will never be able to escape."

"If Shen Meng and Xue Fei won't appear again tonight, is it possible that the red skirt is your other classmates?"

I'm not sure if Hideki is lying, so I'm digging to get more information.

Shaking his head, Hideki made a crucial point: "The cursed students are all wearing school uniforms, only outsiders are different, such as Sakurako, and I have never figured out her origin. ” Taciturn, Sakurako, who seems to be living in a dream, is also an outsider?

"When did she show up?"

"About a year ago, she said she came here to wait for someone.

However, don't be deceived by her appearance, that guy seems to be well-behaved and harmless, but in fact, he has a lot of resentment, and even we avoid three points. ” As an adult, Xiumu and I have different ways of thinking, the driving force of behavior is the purpose, and there are all kinds of souls hidden in Xinhu High School, what is their purpose?

"There must be treasures in this school that are useful to the ghosts, so they invite trouble."

"I've never heard of any treasures in our school, but when the school was first established, a madman pointed to the main entrance of our school, saying that he occupied his ancestral grave, scolded him for three days and three nights, and was later sent away by the security guards."

Xiumu shrugged his shoulders: "I found that you are really curious about everything, why don't you just be an anchor, go and dub 100,000 whys." ” I coughed twice to hide my embarrassment, and I was really uncomfortable being educated by a hairy ghost: "To get back to the point, since you are all cursed by Guo Junjie, as long as you find him, many problems can be solved." ” "You can't find it, we have been wandering around this school for five years without finding any trace of him, only that he is secretly watching us in the shadows, but we don't know where he is hiding."

I can somewhat understand Hideki's despair: "Don't worry, I'm an expert in finding people and searching corpses." ” The mass death incident in Xinhu High School has not been disclosed to the outside world, and if you want to dispose of so many corpses, you must not transport them out with great fanfare, and burning them on the spot is the safest method.

"Let's go to the water tank where Guo Junjie drowned first, and then go to the incineration trench where the school disposes of garbage."

After reaching an agreement with Hideki, I put the dormitory key in my pocket: "The red skirt may leave, let's hurry up and rush out!"

” Grabbing the handle and twisting the lock, I pulled open the door, picked up the camera, and ran down the stairs.

"Run!

She seems to have followed!

” I didn't have to look back to know who Xiumu was referring to, I ran wildly, three or four steps at a time, and finally ran out of the girls' apartment without danger.

"Let's go!

Go to the water treatment center now and don't be overtaken!

"I habitually picked up Sakurako, who was sitting on the side of the road, and ran into the distance.

"Don't be excited, she doesn't seem to be chasing after her."

Looking back, the red shadow was standing at the window on the second floor of the girl's apartment, as if beckoning to me.

I shuddered, and this time I could clearly see that the woman was not wearing a long dress, but a wedding dress as bright red as blood.

"Why do you feel like her body is a little familiar?"

Leaving this strange thought behind, I went to the water purification center under the guidance of Hideki.

Pushing open the door, the small room is lined with water pipes, the innermost is a boiler for boiling hot water, and several large water storage tanks are connected to the boiler.

"He drowned in it."

Climb up the water tank, open the water filler, which is only a foot wide, and a foul smell comes out.

Illuminated by mobile phones, there was not a drop of water in the huge water tank, but nothing could be seen in the black hole.

"You two are waiting outside, I'm going to go in and have a look."

The one-foot-wide opening barely allowed me to pass through, and it was difficult to climb into it, the space was dark and closed, and a sense of depression and fear also arose.

It may have been because it hadn't been opened for a long time, the oxygen in the reservoir was thin, and I endured the painful feeling of suffocation, picked up my phone and hurried to find something useful.

My feet were slippery, I was half-hunched, and it wasn't long before I saw a tattered school uniform in the corner of the jar.

I was about to reach for it when a boy's voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Why are you killing me?"

” "Who!"

Looking back, there was nothing around, and at this moment, the only exit above my head, the one-foot-wide water inlet, was closed from the outside with a "bang"!
