Nightmare Assault

Chen Yao was unable to clear her name so she was pushed to her end. The testimonies were naturally fabricated by Li Yanwei. The guards, teachers and two students were all bought by Li Yanwei. They all died to Chen Yao later on. Chen Yao tore away their jaws and pulled out their tongues. That was her revenge for them lying.

After Chen Yao died, Li Yanwei trapped Su Yu at the Prop Centre. He managed to escape one time, but he came back because Chen Yao’s soul was still there. Therefore, he sneaked back. However, he was discovered by Li Yanwei’s subordinates.

The images of the three female guards appeared in Fatty’s eyes. He shivered involuntarily. After he was caught again, Li Yanwei confiscated his phone and ordered the guards to break his legs to prevent him from leaving. Then, she had her people send him food every day. He was treated… like a dog.

When Su Yu said these things, he was on the verge of a breakdown. The chains on the front door and front gate as well as the talismans, were Li Yanwei’s doing. They were there to prevent Su Yu from meeting with Chen Yao even in death.

Fatty gritted his teeth after hearing this. “How bad can a woman be?”

Jiang Cheng reached into his pocket and pulled out a small notebook. This was Chen Yao’s present to Su Yu. The latter had been taking good care of it. Fatty slowly turned it over.

Sunny 19th September

It is a background knowledge class today. I learned a lot from Teacher Su. I feel so happy.

Rain 24th September

It was raining out. The original performance was cancelled. Everyone felt sad, but Teacher Su encouraged us, telling us that there would always be a next opportunity.

Cloudy 29th September

Our first official performance was a success! Teacher Su is such a gentle person.

Rain 12th October

…

Su Yu was featured in every dairy entry. It was clear how important this man was to Chen Yao. Fatty continued reading, and then, he narrowed his eyes. “Doctor,” He held the diary, “Why is there only half? Where’s the later half?”

The diary was torn apart in the middle. Only the first half remained. The time paused on the day of October 27th.

“Apparently, it has been taken by Li Yanwei.” Jiang Cheng answered, “Her mind has become so twisted that she can’t stand anything by Chen Yao being around Su Yu.”

Fatty looked at Jiang Cheng and asked with confusion, “Doctor, I can understand taking away the diary, but why did she only take half of it?”

Jiang Cheng glanced at Fatty with a meaningful gaze. He didn’t answer him but turned around to head towards the yard. At the same time, his voice came over, “Come with me.”

Fatty carried half the diary and followed Jiang Cheng. They walked past the yard. Fatty was shocked to see Su Yu was still tied to the chair. His head was lowered. It was hard to tell if he was sleeping or if he had fainted again. There was soil around the chair and pieces of the pots.

After turning two corners, they arrived at a very narrow corridor. The corridor was very long and lined with many doors. This should be a warehouse because the windows of the rooms were very small. Living beings wouldn’t stay there, only objects.

Fatty walked cautiously. The wall was very high. He lifted his head, and it looked like the sky had been split open. “Doctor,” He whispered, “This place is so dark.” In the end, Jiang Cheng pushed open a wooden door. The inside was dark, but the space was large. One could probably dance in it.

“Do you remember the blackboard we saw when we came here last?” Jiang Cheng asked.

Fatty poked his head into the room and looked around. “Do you mean the one that was in the yard? If you didn’t mention it, I probably would have forgotten about it.”

Jiang Cheng scanned the room. He walked in when nothing jumped out at them. “Yes. Su Yu said Chen Yao wrote something on it for him.”

Fatty gasped in disbelief, “It was Chen Yao?!”

“Yes.” Jiang Cheng nodded. He seemed to notice something. His gait lightened as he slowly moved down a fixed direction, “Do you remember what was written on it?”

“I think it was…” Fatty tried to remember it. Soon, he said uncertainly, “I’m not sure, but I think the first word was Give… and the last word was not very visible. I can’t remember.” He scratched his head. Back then, he didn’t pay much attention to the blackboard.

“The last word was back.” Jiang Cheng suddenly spoke. Then, he pulled down a piece of fabric. Behind it was the blackboard. One corner was cracked. Fatty paused. He recognised it as the one they saw before.

As expected!

The first word was Give. The last word was Back.

Just as Jiang Cheng pulled the red cloth away, Fatty felt an eerie wind touch his face. It was so chilling that Fatty confirmed the words were left by the ghost or Chen Yao.

Fatty stared at the board. He felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t put his fingers on it.

Jiang Cheng slowly said, “Give back…”

“Is Chen Yao here to give back what was given to her?” Fatty became spirited. “Doctor, this does look like a message left by Chen Yao for Su Yu. It’s a message of love. She’d give back the love he had given her by taking revenge for the two of them.” Before Jiang Cheng said anything, Fatty continued, “The mission is cleared up now. The real killer is Li Yanwei. Ten years ago, she framed Chen Yao to obtain and possess Su Yu. Chen Yao died because of her. After Chen Yao became a ghost, she came back to take revenge on those who had wronged her. This is karma.” Fatty scratched his chin and said in a powerful tone. “Doctor, it looks like the key is Li Yanwei. I remember Chen Yao killed herself in the music classroom. Perhaps we can capture Li Yanwei and send her to the music classroom.” He rambled a lot, but Jiang Cheng squatted before the blackboard and said nothing. Fatty groused, “Doctor, what do you think?”

Jiang Cheng didn’t move. His voice travelled over. Plus, his voice was different from normal. This made Fatty feel a bit weirded out.

“Don’t you think… the sentence is incomplete?”

“Is it?” Fatty moved around to check the sentence from different angles. Eventually, he had to admit that something was not right. Based on the sizes of the first and last words, there should be two more words in the middle, but they have been wiped off. “Now that you mention it…”

Jiang Cheng took out the bottle of water from his bag. He poured some in his palm. He dipped his finger in the water and wrote on the board.

Fatty’s eyes changed from confusion to shock… and, finally, disbelief.

Jiang Cheng wrote down two words between Give and Back. They fitted perfectly.

“Fuck!” Fatty gasped, “The whole sentence is: Give my life back!”
