Zhu Long did not notice anything strange about himself. He did not say the name of the boy or girl, but from the way he looked, it was as if he had experienced something similar before.
"Hey!" Wang Yicheng was a coward. He noticed that Zhu Long seemed to be possessed and pushed the man away.
The confusion in Zhu Long's eyes instantly disappeared. He looked at the people around him and suddenly laughed, "Did I scare you guys? The first time I heard this joke, I was also shocked. Did you guys know? There's actually a second half to this story. I have a rough impression of it in my mind, but I can't remember it. "
"There's a second half?"
"Yes, but I forgot about it." Zhu Long chuckled. "Why are you all looking at me like that? This is just a story that I saw somewhere else. It's not a ghost story that happened at our school. "
Zhu Long realized that everyone was still staring at him, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared. "You don't believe me? Our school is not a medical university … "
"Our school is a comprehensive university, and there are three medical majors. Due to the lack of teaching staff, there are very few students. Normally, we don't see them, but they have three independent labs in the lab building. " Even though they were all new students, Zhang Ju knew the school very well and knew many things that others did not.
"There's a dissection lab at our school?" Zhu Long was dumbfounded. "I'm just saying. Don't take it seriously."
"Our supernatural phenomenon research club's purpose is to find the truth. Whether it's real or not, we'll know when we go to the crime scene." Chen Ge was also interested in the story that Zhu Long told. Zhu Long used to be a delinquent, and he had been sent to a juvenile detention center due to an argument with the city management. His past was very similar to the bad boy in his story. Combined with his strange behavior earlier, it was hard for Chen Ge not to be suspicious.
"Zhu Long does not have any memory of the summer before he graduated from high school. Some of the things might have happened during that summer." Chen Ge had obtained many clues from these students, and he needed to enter the school to verify them.
"I'm glad that everyone is willing to participate. Tonight, we'll go to the places that you mentioned." Chen Ge told Zhang Ju, "Let's go to the forest that you mentioned first. You saw the senior who was about to leave school with your own eyes. What happened to him might be real."
"Alright, come with me." Zhang Ju kept his head lowered. This seemed to be the way he absorbed the light when he walked. That way, it could hide the scar on his face.
He was very familiar with the school. He didn't seem like a freshman at all, but it could be seen that the familiarity had seeped into his bones. It was as if he had always belonged to this school.
There weren't many people in the small square at this time, so not many people noticed them.
Even if others saw it, they would not doubt it. At most, they would be curious. After all, all the members of Chen Ge's club were different.
The forest was quite far from the square. Chen Ge took this opportunity to familiarize himself with the school's terrain.
The West Campus was huge. They walked for more than ten minutes, but they still couldn't see the end.
"There's a man-made lake over there. Because there was a drowning incident in the past, the school forbids people from going near it at night. We'll have to take a detour." Zhang Ju pointed at the darkness in the distance. If not for his warning, Chen Ge would not have known it was a lake.
The surface of the water was calm, and there was no light. Instead of calling it a lake, it was more like a black hole that swallowed everything.
After walking for a few more minutes, Zhang Ju stopped. "The girl's body was found in this forest."
The campus at night was scary. Thankfully, there were streetlights on both sides of the road, and the light gave them some peace of mind.
"There weren't any streetlights here before. After the accident, the school installed them on both sides of the path." Zhang Ju was the first to enter the forest, and Chen Ge followed closely behind.
He was very close to Zhang Ju, and he could clearly feel that Zhang Ju had relaxed a lot after entering the forest.
Perhaps it was because the forest blocked the light, so no one could see his scarred face clearly.
"There's nothing special about this place." When the group first entered the forest, they were a bit afraid, worried that they might run into the girl. But after staying for a while, they started to feel bored.
"Mr. Bai, that ghost story should be fake. The forest looks normal, and there's no sign of a murder." Zhou Tu wanted to leave, but he saw Chen Ge squatting before a tree hole, spacing out. He walked over with confusion. "Mr. Bai, what are you looking at?"
Chen Ge ignored Zhou Tu and said without turning his head, "Zhang Ju, in the ghost story that you mentioned, was the girl's head found inside a tree hole?"
"Yes." Zhang Ju was surprised, but then he thought about it. Chen Ge was a teacher at the school, so it was normal for him to know that.
"A human head was once hidden inside this tree hole?" Wang Yicheng staggered back. He was the most timid of the group.
"Don't run around. The victim's hair is still hanging on the branches behind you." Zhang Ju held Wang Yicheng lightly to prevent him from falling.
"Don't scare him. Even if a murder happened here, it's not as scary as the ghost story makes it out to be." Zhou Tu refused to believe it. He just wanted to leave.
"Xiao Zhou, the truth is scarier than you think." For now, Chen Ge did not plan to tell Zhou Tu and the rest that he had seen a similar tree hole on the eastern campus, and there was a human head stuffed inside it.
"In some ways, the eastern and western campuses are similar, but there's one thing I don't understand. Both of them were victims of an accident, so why would the girl live on the eastern campus while the boy she liked live on the western campus? What kind of standard does the school owner use to assign these students? "
The difference between the woman in the tree hole and Zhang Ju was that one maintained his rationality and looked like a normal person, while the other was twisted by hatred, and his eyes were filled with unresolvable venom.
"The students on the eastern and western campuses have completely different mental states. The students on the western campus are brighter, more passionate, and have more positive emotions. The students on the eastern campus are surrounded by negative emotions, like they are half human and half ghost. "
After thinking about it, Chen Ge remembered that the painting was one of the paintings inside the door.
If the despair and negative emotions inside the door were removed, could the door return to normal?
The situation of the two campuses was similar to the scene depicted in the painting. The western campus had transported all the negative emotions to the eastern campus through the garbage disposal station to maintain the normalcy there.
The two campuses were like an hourglass, and the garbage disposal station was the small opening in the middle of the hourglass.
"I think I understand what the school owner is trying to do."
Chen Ge reached his hand into the tree hole. It had been cleaned, and there was nothing inside.
