She also considered herself sothing of a ghost house expert.
But the common sense swirling in her mind... when faced with the scene before her... always seed insufficient.
"There’s only this corridor... which ans to keep moving forward... right?"
Qianhe Kagura steadied her spirit and muttered softly.
She kept walking, and in the enclosed, narrow space, only the sound of her footsteps remained.
The more Qianhe Kagura walked, the more she felt sothing was amiss.
But what exactly was wrong, she couldn’t quite put her finger on it. It was just too quiet around her...
Wait! Quiet?!
Qianhe Kagura felt a chill rushing from her heels up her spine.
Yes.
It was too quiet! Quiet enough to send shivers down one’s spine!
This made no sense!
Qianhe Kagura finally realized what was wrong.
She was currently in the teaching block, and the Kyubei High School song should rightfully be playing outside on the loudspeakers.
But now...
Not the slightest sound from outside could penetrate.
The bustling noise of the visitors and the cheerful Kyubei High the from the broadcast... all had vanished...
This was clearly impossible.
If the drop in temperature earlier was classified as a cooling trick, then what was the situation with all sounds now disappearing?
Soundproofing?
That was clearly impossible.
The students of class 2A didn’t have the money to buy soundproofing materials like foam, and physical ans of soundproofing are limited; they couldn’t possibly create total silence like this, where nothing could be heard apart from her breathing and footsteps.
At this mont, Qianhe Kagura’s face paled slightly.
This haunted house was like an isolated island.
An island that harbored both horror and strangeness.
"Beichuan... Beichuan..."
Was this really sothing put together by a student?
Beichuan... what kind of student are you?
Qianhe Kagura was unconsciously repeating the na Beichuan Si as she raised her arm.
With this movent, the flashlight’s beam shot forward.
But the feeble light failed to pierce the profound darkness.
Nothing could be seen in front.
"Maybe we should... go back for a bit," Qianhe Kagura finally realized sothing was seriously wrong.
It wasn’t shaful to flee. On the contrary, it was reckless to move forward when you know there’s sothing unknown ahead.
She swallowed hard, moved her feet lightly, and naturally turned her body to look back.
Silence—
The anxiety in the air grew heavier.
Qianhe Kagura’s black eyes shook.
When had it happened? A bloodstained white veil had already cut off her retreat.
Who could it be?
How could soone move such a large piece of veil behind her without making a sound?
Qianhe Kagura knew she shouldn’t be thinking about this now, but her mind was involuntarily drawn there.
The atmosphere turned eerier!
The bloodstains on the white veil beca denser, as if the next mont, the sticky sll of fresh blood would indeed begin to drip.
"Is anyone there?! Is anyone out there?!" Qianhe Kagura shouted in panic.
Utter silence!
Not a sound from outside ca through.
It was obviously wrong!
How could there be no sound outside when she was yelling so loudly?
Even though Qianhe Kagura had said not to be superstitious just before...
Under these circumstances, how could she care about that?
Could there really be sothing in this haunted house?
What on earth did Beichuan Si do?!
Could it be that there truly was a ghost here!?
Just as Qianhe Kagura was about to scream again—
The white veil before her began to change.
Those dense stains, turning a dark red with blood, were writhing and twisting.
Qianhe Kagura was completely petrified.
The dark red stains finally rged into tiny chunks resembling horrifying words!
Die die die die die die die die die die die die die die!!!!
This sudden sight made Qianhe Kagura’s scalp tingle. She stepped back quickly and stumbled over sothing, falling to the ground.
Qianhe Kagura instinctively looked up.
It was a woman’s face.
A face with a pitch-black mouth, hollow eyes... the tongue and eyes gone, just the face of a woman.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"
Qianhe Kagura could no longer suppress the fear in her heart, and she stood up from the ground, rushing forward.
Seeing her run inside, the eyeless woman exploded with a bang, surrounded by pale golden streams, Magong Yongshi sowhat apologetically said towards the direction where Qianhe Kagura disappeared, "I’m sorry, this was all Mr. Temple’s request, I didn’t want this to happen either. Because everything Mr. Temple said was correct... I’m very sorry."
At the sa ti, she felt a bit worried.
Just now, Magong Yongshi had seen Nishijou Kurenai perched on the other person’s shoulder.
She hoped that the little one wouldn’t scare Qianhe Kagura too badly.
Magong Yongshi shook her head and drifted back into the air.
On the other side...
Qianhe Kagura was completely unable to suppress her inner fear anymore, and tears uncontrollably flowed down:
"That’s enough! It’s really enough!"
After all, she was just a woman, and though she might appear strong in front of students, she was utterly unable to control her emotions at a ti like this.
Qianhe Kagura continued to run with her head down.
After about five minutes, she finally realized sothing was wrong amidst her emotional breakdown.
After all, this haunted house was only about as big as a classroom, how could it be possible for an adult woman to run for five minutes and still not find the exit?
Qianhe Kagura lifted her head, her eyes swimming with tears.
This place... seed familiar...
"Beichuan, what on earth..." With a feeling of helplessness, she hugged her knees and surveyed the surroundings.
What exactly had Beichuan Si done, and what thods had he used... what exactly had he concealed before...
Qianhe Kagura didn’t want to investigate any of that anymore.
She just wanted to get out of this damned haunted house, right now, imdiately.
She didn’t want to think about anything else.
Qianhe Kagura just sat there hugging her knees, a pitiful and helpless figure.
Completely different from the strong-willed head teacher she usually was.
Right when Qianhe Kagura was crying, a pack of tissues was suddenly passed to her from the side.
She took out a tissue, wiped her tears, blew her nose, and finally said with a hoarse voice, "Thank you."
Uh...?
Qianhe Kagura quickly sensed sothing amiss.
She looked in surprise at the tissue in her hand.
Then she looked toward the hand that had passed the tissue.
Strictly speaking, that wasn’t a human hand.
It was round and bulging... without fingers, like tissue glued onto a spherical arm... a puppet’s hand.
A puppet’s hand?!
And it was on her shoulder...?
Qianhe Kagura’s body shuddered, and she turned her tearful face towards her shoulder.
Sohow, a small puppet had taken over her shoulder.
That was a very ferocious face.
Blood was sared on the puppet’s body.
Its tattered mouth stitched finely in an X-shape with thread.
Button-like eyes glinted with a living sheen under the flashlight.
At this mont, these ’eyes’—
Were staring at her as if alive!
Qianhe Kagura’s mouth twisted open to scream!
The next mont—
Footsteps ca from in front.
Pitter-patter.
Pitter-patter.
Pitter-patter.
Sitting on the ground, Qianhe Kagura listlessly lifted her head.
It was a woman in a white dress with her neck twisted at a ninety-degree angle.
Her face was pale and resentful as she fixed Qianhe Kagura with a gaze of venom.
Dark blood dripped down from the hem of her skirt.
Tick-tock, tick-tock...like the countdown before death.
But these were not the most attention-grabbing factors for Qianhe Kagura.
What truly terrified her, even causing her whole body to begin convulsing, was the prop...
The chainsaw in her hand, gleaming coldly!
On the chainsaw, there was sothing particularly conspicuous.
That was human flesh, skin, and hair...
"No... don’t... I..." Qianhe Kagura’s feet flailed wildly, and her hands waved frantically.
That was a chainsaw...!
How could Beichuan Si possibly bring such a prohibited item into the school?!
No...
One could even say... that what Beichuan Si had brought to the school was not so ’Ghost Dance Actor’.
But a real ghost!
Under Qianhe Kagura’s horrified gaze, the woman pulled the trigger of the chainsaw.
The next mont!
The roar of the chainsaw and Qianhe Kagura’s scream of utmost terror rang out!
