“…I think, since this newspaper has appeared here, then the burnt ‘kuzuki Sakaki’ and the ‘Suzuki’ in this class are most likely the same person.” Feng bujue continued,”based on this … We can make a logical deduction. Could it be that this is the case, ran ran? back then, Suzuki-san’s death was actually related to the class monitor, but nothing happened at the time. Many years later, this class monitor returned to school for some reason and triggered the FLAG of a vengeful spirit demanding his life. Then, he died. And after he died, he became a ghost again, ready to drag the rest of the class down with him. And so … The beginning of this scenario appeared. ”

“I don’t know why … It’s quite a scary thing, but after you said it, it doesn’t feel scary at all.” After hearing brother Jue’s words, an Yueqin’s terror points had indeed decreased by quite a bit.

“You’ve been talking for a long time …” Ghost hunter said,”it’s still not confirmed, and the main mission has not been triggered.”

“I told you to be patient.” “First, I need to go through all the information that I know in my head and make some logical deductions,” Feng bujue said.”That way, when I encounter an unexpected situation, I will be able to deal with it with ease.”

He used the tone of a teacher to unhurriedly finish his speech. Then, he spread out the newspaper and displayed it in front of everyone.

“Let’s talk about the other reports …” Brother Jue continued.”There are three more reports related to this school. They are …’Headmaster Miyamoto committed suicide at home’,’teacher Sato lost his mind in the toilet’, and ‘student Noguchi hideji’s disappearance’. There were two other reports. One was about the three-society sacrifice held in the town’s shrine a few days ago. The other one is about the U.S. Returning the island to Japan … The last one took up the most space and covered several pages, but it has nothing to do with the plot of the script. ”

“What kind of newspaper is this?” when Xiao Tan heard this, he laughed drily and commented,”it’s all about this school, and then it’s about national affairs. The content span is too much …”

“This should be a ‘village newspaper’, right?” Naturally, Feng bujue had already thought about that.”It’s one of those small town-run newspapers … From writing, printing, and distribution, everything is done locally. The content of the report is also based on local news, and there are some big events that are known throughout the country added to the story.”

“Can this kind of publication really survive?” When an Yueqin heard this, she interrupted,”how much news can a small town have?”

“Hehe … You’re right.” Feng bujue laughed.”So they are doing ‘weekly’.”

“Oh …” An Yueqin immediately understood what he meant.

“The things I mentioned just now, there’s a sequence to them. The span is one to seven days.” Feng bujue continued,”Suzuki was burned to death on May 13th; May 14th, Noguchi hideji went missing; May 15th was the day of the three societies ‘sacrifice, which was also the day the U.S. Military returned to the island. Hidekazu’s mental disorder started on the 16th of may. On the 18th, the principal hung himself in his house. Finally … The newspaper was published on the 19th. ”

“This week has been tough.” When Xiao Tan heard this, he could not help but complain.

“It’s alright. In this school, there are only two dead, one crazy, and one missing.” Feng bujue continued,”if we take the ‘supernatural’ setting into account, there is an 80% chance that these things are related to cause and effect. If that’s the case … The number of deaths is not that high. It is not even the average number of deaths for a horror movie.”

“If you count the six of us, there should be enough people, right?” RUO Yu, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly cracked a joke with her cold tone.

But in the end … Only Feng bujue was smiling.

The others didn’t find it funny at all, and they were even more frightened by her words.

“Alright, I’ve explained all the information I know so far. Next is the puzzle.” As Feng bujue said that, he put the newspaper back and folded it. “Before I told you about Suzuki ajumi, I had already cracked the hidden information in the newspaper. Actually, it was not that difficult … Just follow the original crease on the paper and find a complete sentence.”

“Wait, wait, wait …” The demon ghost immediately asked,”can’t you solve the puzzle first and then tell us what you just said?”

“You don’t understand? I deliberately told you all the information first. ” Feng bujue replied in a matter-of-fact tone,”so far, the main mission has not been triggered, and the system has not given us any time limit. Since that is the case … Why don’t we make good use of this ‘unlimited time’?” He paused and added,”you have to think of it this way … If the main plot triggers a rule like ‘how much time do you have to complete the scenario’… Then you might not have the mood or time to study the plot.”

“Alright, alright, you’re right.” Ghost hunter narrowed his eyes and replied with a long voice,”I’ve learned a lot.”

While the two were conversing, Feng bujue’s hands did not stop moving. He quickly returned the newspaper to the state it was in when it was first placed on the podium. Then, he flipped it to the side and pointed at a fold.”Okay, everyone, look … This is the side that places the two different reports together. The words on both sides of the crease can be read from top to bottom.”

“It’s … Right … In front … Of you … But you … Can’t … See … It. ” Ling was indeed powerful. She was reading the newspaper backward, but she quickly read out the Japanese pseudonyms on the paper.

“HO~so you’re a liberal arts student. Amazing.” Feng bujue immediately praised her.

“Hmm … But what does this mean?” Xiao Ling lowered her head in thought after she finished.

“Hey…Why does this sound so scary?” After ghost hunter heard those ten words, he instinctively took half a step toward Xiao Tan, who was the closest to him. There was also nervousness on his face.

He was quite straightforward in this regard. If he was afraid, he was afraid. There was nothing to be embarrassed about.

“It’s no use even if you come over. I’m scared too …” Xiao Tan saw this and admitted defeat honestly.

“Do you two want to find a corner and hug each other? we’ll call you when we’re done solving the puzzle.” Brother Jue was a man with a talent for taunting, so he would not miss this opportunity.

Just as ghost hunter was about to reply with some trash talk …

“I got it!” Suddenly, an Yueqin let out a soft cry and continued,”right in front of you. It means that you’re sitting in the classroom and facing the front.” As she spoke, she quickly walked to the blackboard.”As for why I can’t see …” She took a few steps closer to the blackboard and took a closer look.”Ah … I see …”

The next second, she picked up a white chalk from the chalk slot and began to scribble on the blackboard.

Not long after, an area in the middle of the blackboard was painted a light white. In the White area, there were a few blotch-like things that did not change color because of the chalk …

Just like that … When an Yueqin put down the chalk, the word “spin” appeared on the blackboard.

“Spinning?” “Spin what?” Xiao Tan repeated. When he said this, he raised his head.”Could it be that turning the light above will trigger some kind of mechanism?”

“I think … It’s more reliable to move the desks and chairs, right?” Ghost hunter wasn’t just complaining. In fact, he had been thinking about it.

“The two of you …” Feng bujue used his old-timer tone again. He tucked the newspaper under his armpit and strolled toward the painting on the wall.”It’s better to use your brains more.”

As he said this, he had already reached out to hold the frame. A second later, he exerted a little force with one hand, and a “click” was heard from the back of the painting. Then, the entire painting rotated 180 degrees.

The huge face in the painting was originally in a very abstract state, but after this turn, it was turned upside down … It was a strange face with a sinister smile.

嗞嗞嗞嗞……

The moment the painting finished spinning, the fluorescent tube directly above the classroom … Which was the only light source in this space … Flashed twice and went out.

“Hey, Yingluo, no way … What’s going on? Did you turn on the light switch?” The demon ghost’s talking speed became very fast, and his voice also trembled a little. It was obvious that his terror points were rising.

“Brother … Brother Jue … Will that be okay?” One second later, Xiao Tan also used his voice to ask a question that was not really important.

Their reactions were the common reactions of humans when they were afraid …

When people felt afraid and helpless, they would urgently communicate with their own kind around them to ease the uneasiness in their hearts. And the way of communication … Was to ask questions.

However, people would often fall into a state of slow thinking or even complete stagnation at this time. Therefore, the questions they asked would be illogical, meaningless, and even incoherent.

“Shush, shush, don’t speak.” Feng bujue gave a quick response, asking the two guys who were more timid than girls to keep quiet.

Dong Dong Dong

Almost at the same time that brother Jue ‘s’ words ‘left his mouth, another strange noise came from the other corner of the classroom.

“What … What’s that?” Even though brother Jue had told them to stop talking, ghost hunter could not help but ask when he heard the sound.

“It should be the wooden bookcase on the right side of the podium that opened.” Then, RUO Yu’s calm voice came from the darkness.

“Don’t move, I’ll go over and take a look. ” As Feng bujue spoke, he was already walking toward the source of the voice.

It had to be explained here that brother Jue did not have the ability to look at data right now because in a scenario with limited abilities, his ability to observe data would also be limited.

Ghost hunter was undoubtedly in a similar situation, so he often failed when he encountered restricted-type scenarios …

However, for Feng bujue, not being able to use his data did not mean that he could not move in the dark. Brother Jue was a well-trained man, and he had always been extremely accurate with his sense of time and space.

This classroom was a rectangular space. It was not very big, and the furnishings inside had a certain pattern. For an environment like this … Brother Jue only needed to observe for a minute or two, and he could move around with his eyes closed.

“Be careful, that sound might be the sound of some kind of ghost crawling out of the cabinet.” RUO Yu could not move in the dark, but she could still warn her.

“Sister! Can we not say such terrifying things?” Before brother Jue could reply, ghost hunter on the other side shouted excitedly.

“It’s okay, I’ll adapt to the situation. ” Feng bujue, on the other hand, was calm. When he replied, he had already walked to the wooden bookcase.

In the end, he was a Man Without Fear. In this pitch-black environment, in this terrifying atmosphere … He did not hesitate to reach his hand into the cabinet and quickly grope around.

However, at this moment, there was another change!

Tap, tap, tap …

Suddenly, footsteps came from the corridor outside the window.

The voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for the six players who were surrounded by darkness and Jing Shu to hear it clearly.

And … It wasn’t just sound. Along with the footsteps, there was a strong smell of blood.

Many people knew that when one of the Kongtong people’s senses was restricted, the other senses would become sharper. For example, at this moment, the players, who were in the dark, could clearly sense the approach of an unknown creature through their hearing and smell.

This feeling … Was undoubtedly terrible, even worse than a terrible monster appearing directly in front of you.

“Brother … Brother Jue …” Xiao Tan’s voice was heard again. He lowered his voice and said with a trembling voice,”this is getting out of hand …”

After a short two seconds of silence.

“Calm down, I’ve found the flashlight.” Feng bujue’s reply came, and he delivered a piece of good news in a firm and steady tone.

Dasha

Before he finished, brother Jue had already turned on the light in his hand. Without thinking, he aimed the circle of light at the corridor.

At that moment, the six players clearly saw a pale face stuck to the window of the corridor, staring at the people in the classroom with a pair of empty, bleeding eyes.

The moment the light of the flashlight shone on it, the face twisted, let out a shrill scream, and retreated.

In the blink of an eye, accompanied by another wave of hurried footsteps, the face once again disappeared into the darkness outside the corridor, disappearing without a trace …

This scene was truly shocking and abnormally terrifying.

Even RUO Yu and the other two were so scared that their hearts beat faster and their hair stood on end, much less Xiao Tan and ghost hunter, who were the more timid ones.

“I can imagine … In this place, if I’m too slow in finding and turning on the flashlight, it might come in.” Only Feng bujue was calm and collected, and he was still saying some scary things.

“Can you stop? Your words are scarier than the ghost itself!” At this moment, the demon ghost had already entered a state of extreme fear and anger. He turned his head and responded in a bad mood.

“How do you know that’s a ghost?” Feng bujue, however, replied calmly,”judging from the sound of the footsteps … I think the possibility of it being a monster with a physical body is higher.”
