Chapter 144: Lessons School Won't Teach
Ill bring the kids back. Gao Ming had never thought of the kids personally taught by Headmistress Yan as ghosts. They were merely using their own ways to change this emotionless world. Madam Headmistress, can you help me? This red badge has crawled into my friends arm. Can you pull it out?
Zhou Sisi reached out her hand fearfully. She looked scary. Her body was covered in body, her hair was dishevelled, and her face was pale.
Its a good thing that she has been chosen by the student council. Yan Xizhi looked at Zhou Sisi softer than when he looked at Gao Ming. It was like Zhou Sisi was her daughter. Only those who have appreciation, love, kindness in their hearts and those who have a truly happy soul have the right to wear the red badge and become the role models of the other students.
But I dont feel happy at all. If anything, I think Im getting depressed. Zhou Sisi wiped the blood on her arm, but the blood wouldnt rub off.
My badge will not pick the wrong person. Headmistress Yan hugged Zhou Sisis head lightly. Strangely enough, Zhou Sisi, who had been so nervous, suddenly calmed down. There was a new glow of power in her eyes. Even though she was still scared, she was much better than before. Headmistress Yan appeared to have used her power on her.
You should accompany Sisi to deliver the letter, or Sisi can deliver them on her own. The red badge will lead the way. Headmistress Yan let go and encouraged Zhou Sisi.
Thank you, headmistress. Gao Ming held Zhou Sisis hand and moved back. Ding Yuan came over with some jealousy in his eyes.
Is this girl your girlfriend? Ding Yuan scanned Zhou Sisi. Not anyone can get Headmistress Yans blessing. My subordinates tried everything, but Headmistress Yan refused to use her power on them.
What is Headmistress Yans power? Gao Ming was curious. Only students whom she believed had good character would get her blessing. Neither Gao Ming nor Ding Yuan was that lucky.
I cant explain it. I feel peace in my heart, and my body is pumping with energy. Zhou Sisi touched the badge on her arm. I feel safer. The school also appears kinder.
Han De Shu Xiang Academy was different from the other schools at Han Hai. In the past, the students here possessed great values. Back then, many rich families wanted to send their kids here to become better people, but they were all rejected by Yan Xizhi. Who would have thought that a big tragedy would happen here later? The good values became the reason why the students were targeted. Ding Yuan sighed sadly, The reason Situ An targeted this school was because of the students.
To borrow their afterlife longevity? Gao Ming knew some inside info.
I havent investigated the whole thing, but the truth is hidden at the lab building. If you have the chance, you should explore the underground of the lab building. That place is where Situ An has the biggest conflict with the school rules. Ding Yuan thought about it and added, I feel like SItu An seems to know beforehand that the tragedy would arrive, so he had been preparing for it.
Is it possible that he can see the future? Gao Ming narrowed his eyes. Ever since he used Xia Yangs death portrait, his habits have been influenced by Xia Yang. An example was his heightened sense of imminent danger.
How can I put this? When the shadow world infiltrates the real world, for ghosts and anomalies, the most precious thing is not resources and gold but living humans with a rich mental world. Ding Yuan took out student case files of Han De Shu Xiang Academy and handed them to Gao Ming. Even though the students here were abandoned orphans or had natural disabilities, under Yan Xizhi and the other teachers guidance, they possessed a beautiful image of the world. They were happy and innocent. They had a pure heart. For ghosts from the shadow world, these kids would be immensely delicious.
Situ An took control of the school before anyone else could do anything.
However, Situ An is not all-powerful. Before he infiltrated the school, most of the students had already been polluted and lost their most precious character. That was something Situ An didnt expect. Ding Yuan pulled over the investigation result of the Huan Men Investigation Centre. Some of the kids who were raised by Yan Xizhi entered the society with the spirit to give back. However, its sad that sometimes their kindness is manipulated and misconstrued. Many of the big ghosts here were once students of Han De Shu Xiang Academy. Ding Yuan revealed a big secret. This might be why the big ghosts returned to school.
They were once the best humans isolated at Han De Shu Xiang Academy. They had the most precious innocence that many adults had lost. However, they also paid a heavy price for it.
The scariest big ghost at this school is under the lab building. The conflict between Situ An and the school rules started with him as the centre. If you can get his aid, then well have a chance of victory! Ding Yuan finally revealed his true purpose. All the secrets of Han De Private School seemed to be hidden under the lab building. Gao Ming also wanted to meet this scariest big ghost.
Whats the name of the ghost under the lab building? What is his power?
We only know that his name is You Liang. Hes the first batch of students to graduate from Han De Shu Xiang Academy. He was also the student with the worst result under Yan Xizhis care. The kids brain was fine, but his results were worse with students with brain defects. He purposely and perfectly chose all the wrong answers. Ding Yuan said seriously, Dont think that hes easy to deal with. Every human and ghost who went under the lab building was cruelly murdered by him. The more Ding Yuan elaborated, the more driven Gao Ming became. With big dogs protection, he should be able to observe safely from a distance.
If you really wish to go there, I suggest you go before the lights go out. Now, the big ghosts are limited by both the school rules and Situ Ans rules. After lights out, anyone who goes near that place will die.
Ding Yuan sincerely wished Gao Ming could change the situation. No matter if Situ An took over the school or the school rules consumed Situ An, the many investigators the headquarters would send in to rescue them would turn into sacrifices. Gao Ming was the only person who could prevent this tragedy.
Night fell. Some of the students ran to the library for self-study, some ran to take classes for extra credit, and others returned to the hostel to rest.
Compared to the other students who happily enjoyed school life, Class 13 was still very busy. They needed to gather 51 students to attend tomorrows class.
Sisi, you can hide in the big dogs body. Dont be scared. Hes very gentle. Gao Ming summoned the big dog once the sun sank down the horizon. Zhou Sisi was so scared once she saw the long-furred dog that was as large as a mountain. The big dog opened his jaws wide to reveal his sharp fangs as if he wanted to eat Zhou Sisi.
Will it eat me Zhou Sisi stuck her body to the wall and didnt dare to move.
Even if you beg me, I wouldnt eat you. A suppressed voice came from the big dogs stomach. The big dog yawned and then jogged towards Yan Xizhi.
Come back! Gao Ming yanked the dogs ear. Whats wrong with you? Why would you go to disturb the old lady?
Gao Ming used a lot of effort to persuade the big ghost to protect Zhou Sisi. The three of them left the storage room. Zhou Sisi was both scared and curious as she touched the dogs black fur. Dark night seemed to filter through her fingers. She looked at the dogs black eyes. She wanted to hug the dogs head.
Gao Ming, where did you find it? Zhou Sisi whispered.
You have seen things you shouldnt. The big dog shook off Zhou Sisis hand and acted like he was about to attack her. Be prepared to be killed and silenced. The kid is heartless!
Zhou Sisi shrunk her neck. She was frightened.
Can you two take this seriously? Gao Ming was tensed. His adrenaline level shot up. He really had no mood to partake in their little drama.
The atmosphere at the lab building was solemn. The student council kept rushing towards the art room, but the taboo zone still got out of control. Gao Ming had no idea what happened to the art teacher. He had Xia Yangs death portrait, and he knew that Teacher Xia was enraptured by his need for creation. New artwork kept appearing in the death portrait. Every art piece was made with death and blood. Teacher Xia was crazily creating. He seemed to have an endless supply of paint. He had not had such fun in a long time already.
When Gao Ming passed by the art room on the second floor, the blood had spread to the fourth lab. There were many school uniforms stained by paint in the corridor. Gao Ming felt like Xia Yang was waving at him behind the classroom windows. He didnt dare to dawdle. He grabbed Zhou Sisi and ran to the first floor.
The layout of the school on the internet didnt mark down any basement. Only Situ An and a handful of people knew about the underground rooms at the school. Based on the info provided by Ding Yuan, Gao Ming opened the hidden door at the end of the corridor.
Some kind of social simulation experiment was being conducted there. All the classrooms were decorated with different scenes and backdrops. Some looked like hospitals, and others looked like prisons. There were many different shops too.
This appeared to be where the students could simulate potential problems they might encounter in the outside society before they left school. Classes like scams, briberies, unfair treatment at the workplace and so on were taught here. These were all knowledge normal schools wouldnt impart to their students.
Such labs existed at Han De Private Academy?! Gao Ming saw a name list on the wall near the entrance. The list recorded the survival time of every student who came there.
Gao Ming scanned the list. Basically, none of the students who attended the societal simulation class survived more than 24 hours. The only still-surviving student was called You Liang.
