Nightmare Assault

Or were there other secrets in Block C? Regardless, this was not good news for them. He couldn’t figure out why the ghost didn’t go for Fatty and Jiang Cheng but him.

“Stop overthinking,” Xu Wen stared ahead with caution. “From now on, unless necessary, don’t touch anything.”

“But…” Zhou Taifu’s face was pale as he had just recovered from the fear. “There are things we have to…” Xu Wen shot Zhou Taifu a look. The latter followed Xu Wen’s gaze and noticed a small, frail frame. Feng Lan walked in the front, using her phone to shine the way. She reminded them in a whisper, “Miss Xu, Mr. Zhou, it’s a bit dark ahead. Be careful of where you step.”

“You better worry about yourself…” Zhou Taifu said under his breath.

Creak… Creak…

Inside the female toilet at the intersection, there was the sound of friction. It was not loud, but it had a captivating power. It was the sound that could make one lose their soul. The silent wind coursed through the toilet. The black leather rope left by the sink moved. It turned and tumbled towards the ground. However, before it could hit the floor, the rope halted in mid-air. It was like an invisible hand had caught it.

A few minutes ago, Xu Wen, Zhou Taifu and Feng Lan left in a hurry. They were in such a hurry that they didn’t notice that while the two women had left, Zhou Taifu…

The sky darkened. The female toilet blurred. Everything became a black silhouette. Everything was crushed and embedded into the darkness. Glints of light blinked in the mirror. It was from a dagger. The dagger was held by a shadow whose face was hidden.

…

Fatty stared at the only man in the picture, and various scenarios entered his mind. The dead ballet dancer, the missing male teacher, the graduation in two terms, the change of school name, and the lifeless graduation picture… The combination of these clues led to a tragedy.

“Doctor,” There was a heaviness in Fatty’s voice, “I believe that male teacher did something to the girl. The girl committed suicide from shame and came back to haunt the school after her death.

“This incident would have affected the school’s reputation and future. Therefore, to cover this up, they changed the school name, cancelled the dance major and swiftly graduated the attending class. This would explain why we hadn’t encountered a single man at this school. The school must have stopped hiring male teachers after that incident.” Fatty lifted his head like he just understood something, “Also, Doctor, if you remember, the school’s security and canteen are all staffed by females.” Fatty licked his lips. “Other than us, this place only has women. It’s a sea of women.”

Jiang Cheng tilted his head to look at Fatty. The thing in his eyes made Fatty feel small. “Doctor,” Fatty used his hands to hold the file. He uttered nervously, “Just say what’s on your mind. Don’t look at me like that.”

“Why did you lick your lips?” Jiang Cheng asked seriously.

Fatty was confused. He frowned, and his fatty cheeks folded together. “Doctor, what do you mean?”

“Why did you lick your lips when you said this school is filled with women?” Jiang Cheng repeated.

“Did I?” Fatty was stunned.

“Yes.” Jiang Cheng nodded. “If you don’t believe me, repeat the phrase, this place is a sea of women.”

“Other than us, this place only has women. It’s a sea of women.” Fatty paused and then licked his lips.

“Look!” Jiang Cheng pointed out, “You did it again!”

Fatty, “...Doctor, I don’t think now is the time to discuss whether I lick my lips or not. This situation is bad. Something horrible probably happened to that girl. That’s why she’s so resentful.”

Jiang Cheng shook his head. “Wrong.”

“Wrong?” The way Fatty looked at Jiang Cheng changed. The latter viewed things differently. Fatty believed he had discovered something. Fatty frowned and probed, “Doctor, do you think the issue is not with the girl?”

“No.” Jiang Cheng still shook his head. “I mean, your earlier sentence was wrong.”

“Is it still about the lips licking?” Fatty huffed.

“No. Before that.”

“Before that?” Fatty blinked and said slowly, “Other than us, this place only has women. It’s a sea of…”

“Enough.” Jiang Cheng cut him off. He leaned forward and said in a special tone, “This school does not only have women. Other than us, there is another man.”

Fatty was silent. Then, a pale, wizened face appeared in his mind. There was indeed another man. But Fatty instinctively eliminated him… because he was too old and he was limping. He didn’t have the ability or the motive.

“Doctor,” Fatty said awkwardly, “Do you think that person… can still…”

“Who knows?” Jiang Cheng shrugged, “I hit puberty late, and I still have pimples. Perhaps his puberty is even later than mine. He might look old but is physically young.”

Fatty had to say, “Doctor, you are a special case. I don’t think we can find another case like you in another 100 years. Please don’t overestimate the old man. Plus, if he were half as cunning as you are, he wouldn’t end up in his current state.”

Unfortunately, the man stood at the corner in the group picture. The equipment back then was also not that good. The man’s face was unclear. That was all the clues. They didn’t need to stay to discuss further. They put away the camera and the files and prepared to leave.

The camera only had 10 percent battery left. The battery icon was red. They looked through the camera bag and couldn’t find the charger.

“Let’s go.” Jiang Cheng patted the bag. “It looks like we have to go to the Prop Centre. We might get the charger from the old man.”

“Doctor, your optimism is inspiring,” Fatty grumbled. “I fear we might lose our lives before we can get our hands on the charger.”

Jiang Cheng, who had walked ahead, suddenly paused.

The confused Fatty looked past Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng had pushed the door open earlier. The scene outside the door stunned Fatty.
