The driver's actions made Chen Ge feel unsettled. They were the ones who were most familiar with this city, and they knew all the places that they could not go.
"Does this driver have some misunderstanding about me?"
The mattress was dropped in the mud, and it was soon soaked by the rain.
When he read about the supernatural incidents at Mu Yang High School on the school forum, Chen Ge did not think that it was that scary, but after being tricked by the driver, the hair on his back started to stand.
The only requirement for this Trial Mission is to survive. This means that from the black phone's point of view, staying alive has become a kind of test.
In the blink of an eye, the taxi disappeared at the end of the road. Chen Ge stood alone in his raincoat, feeling like he was the only person left in the world.
The rain continued to fall. Chen Ge pulled the hood of his raincoat down, took out his flashlight, and walked down the dirt road.
Dark clouds hung over the sky, and not a single ray of light shone through. Chen Ge walked to the few buildings, and he realized that they had been abandoned for a long time.
Rusted chains dangled from the doors, and the glass on the windows was already shattered. Looking through the gaps, Chen Ge saw broken furniture and trash. Occasionally, he could see some unknown insects crawling among them.
There's not a single living person here. Is this place really that scary?
Before he came, he had asked Fan Yu's aunt, and he had a general understanding of Mu Yang High School's surroundings.
Since he could not find anyone to ask for directions, he could only rely on his memory to find his way to more isolated places.
It was raining, and the road was muddy. Strange-Looking trees lined both sides of the road. Probably because no one had taken care of them for a long time, some of them had grown into the dirt road.
The old site of Mu Yang High School is the crematorium. Even though the place is not clean, there must be a path for cars to pass through. This road is getting narrower and narrower. Am I going in the wrong direction?
The rain did not stop, and Chen Ge's speed slowed. It'll be troublesome if I get lost. If I still can't see Mu Yang High School at the end of this road, I'll turn back and give up on this mission.
He walked for thirty minutes, and at the end of the dirt road, he saw several toppled signs and wooden fences.
"There's moss on one side. It looks like it's from a few years ago." Chen Ge straightened it. The words on the sign were already blurred. He shone the flashlight on it in the rain. "Why is there only moss on one side, and the other side is not buried in the soil? Is it because of the sunlight, or did someone come here recently and move the sign and fence? "
He stopped moving and took out his phone to look at the time. It's almost 8 pm, and we still haven't found the mission venue. The only good news is that the phone still has signal, so we don't have to worry about losing contact with the outside world.
On a rainy night, the sky would be especially dark. The only source of light was Chen Ge's flashlight. "The sign and the fence are all here. The weirdest thing is, someone has recently moved these things. It's very suspicious."
Chen Ge raised the wooden sign and swept away the shrubs in front of him. After walking another ten meters, the scene in front of him finally changed.
A row of broken wooden fences stood in the middle of the forest, and within the fences stood a few low-rise buildings.
"This is Mu Yang High School?"
Compared to Western Jiujiang Private Academy, this school was much poorer. It was only one-third the size of Western Jiujiang Private Academy.
Tossing the wooden sign away, Chen Ge did not let his guard down just because the place was small. Sometimes, a small place was not necessarily a good thing. Even though there were fewer places to explore, there were also fewer places to hide.
After jumping over the fence, Chen Ge officially entered Mu Yang High School.
With a glance, he could see all the buildings in the school.
Closest to the gate was the education block. It appeared like there had been a serious fire there. The surface of the building was charred, and part of the wall was cracked. It looked like it could collapse at any moment.
To the left of the education block was the dormitory. Probably due to the low number of students, the dormitory only had two floors, and there were only a few rooms. To the right was the office building. It was also only two floors, but from its appearance, this building was the most well-preserved.
Behind the education block was a field with uneven ground. Next to it were two basketball racks and a few ping pong tables.
This was the layout of Mu Yang High School. It was old and simple. Even though it had many supernatural stories, there was nothing special about the school itself. In fact, Chen Ge suspected that the real reason for the school's closure was not due to supernatural incidents but because the school could no longer continue its operations.
When he arrived, Chen Ge was surprisingly calm. Since he was already here, he could always adjust his mentality quickly.
There are four side missions at Mu Yang High School — the Pen Spirit, the fifth cubicle in the toilet, the deep well, and the sealed classroom. To unlock the scenario, I have to complete all four of these side missions. During the previous Trial Mission, it was because Chen Ge's mission completion rate was over ninety percent that he was rewarded with a hidden item — Wang Qi's missing person notice. It was this hidden item that helped him establish a good relationship with Xiaoxiao's family and gain their approval.
He understood the importance of the mission completion rate, but it was easier said than done. Any one of the four side missions was comparable to a Nightmare Mission, much less a Nightmare Mission in a single night.
It's not midnight yet, so it's not the time for the spirits to be most active. I'll go check out these four locations first. If I can't complete them, I'll still have time to leave. Chen Ge shoved the doll into his pocket, took out the mallet, and entered the education block.
The surface of the wall was charred black. Even after several years, the burn marks were still there.
The whole building was burned down. Does this have anything to do with the fact that it was built on the site of a crematorium? Chen Ge moved lightly. He memorized the mission hint on the black phone. There was a sealed classroom at the end of the corridor. No one had entered it before, but once night fell, the classroom would be crowded.
Fan Yu's father died because he entered that classroom. That classroom is probably the source of all the supernatural incidents at Mu Yang High School. The strange picture appeared in Chen Ge's mind. That night, he might have to spend the whole night with the faceless monsters who were facing away from the camera.
All the classrooms were locked, and the doors and windows were closed. Chen Ge could only use the flashlight to peer through the windows.
The first few classrooms were normal, but when he reached the classroom at the end of the corridor, Chen Ge suddenly saw something weird.
