"Be it for his future treatment or your own safety, don't let your guard down."
"Understood."
After hanging up, Chen Ge leaned against the wall of the toilet. His mind was a mess. The killer was either Fan Yu or Fan Yu's aunts. They were the most suspicious and the closest people to the victim.
Fan Yu's aunt hid the truth from me. Something else must have happened on that rainy night a few years ago.
Why would the closest people become the killer? That was what confused Chen Ge the most.
The crime scene is at Mu Yang High School. Perhaps I can find something here.
Chen Ge restarted the livestream. The chat was still lagging, but the livestream was starting to stabilize.
After apologizing to his viewers, Chen Ge grabbed the mallet and left the second-floor toilet.
He stood at the door and shone the flashlight on the ground. There were no footprints at the door.
When I was hiding behind the door, I heard the footsteps. They stopped at the door, but now that I've checked, there's nothing at the door. Looks like the people walking next to each other are not living people. Chen Ge looked down the stairs. The footsteps had gone to the first floor.
Chen Ge had no idea whether the owner of the footsteps was the red shadow from the side mission or not. For the sake of safety, he decided to avoid it for now.
Holding the flashlight, Chen Ge headed to the third floor. However, when he reached the middle of the third and second floor, he heard footsteps again. They sounded like they came from the first floor.
There were two 'people' walking on the stairs.
They've discovered me? Chen Ge switched off the flashlight and leaned against the wall to keep his eyes on the stairwell.
The footsteps did not stop. The two 'people' walked all the way to the second floor.
They seem to have entered the second-floor toilet? Just as the thought crossed Chen Ge's mind, he heard the sound of the toilet door opening and closing.
The cubicle doors were opened six times. They sounded like they were inspecting the cubicles.
Chen Ge moved closer to the second floor. He tried to poke his head out and peek at the situation on the second floor through the gap between the railings.
After the sound of the door opening and closing stopped, so did the sound of the footsteps. It was as if everything that had just happened was just Chen Ge's imagination. He waited in the corridor for a full five minutes, but he did not see anything strange coming out from the second-floor toilet.
The footsteps did not come again. Does that mean that the things walking side by side have not come out from the toilet yet? They might be hiding in one of the cubicles in the toilet on the second floor, waiting for me to walk into their trap. Although Chen Ge was bold, it didn't mean that he wasn't afraid. If he saw something scary when he opened the cubicle door, he would probably be scared out of his wits.
The monster is hiding in the toilet on the second floor, so I can go to the third floor to explore. Chen Ge did not turn on the flashlight. He had Yin Yang Vision, and this reward from completing the Nightmare Mission was not as magical as the black phone described. Perhaps because it was not fully activated, it only improved his eyesight and allowed him to see in the dark.
In the dark and rainy night, lightning flashed across the sky. The temporary light cast a scary light on everything around him. Chen Ge was worried that something might be following him.
He turned back to look several times, but the corridor was empty. Chen Ge finally relaxed. He gripped the mallet and entered the third-floor toilet.
The toilet on the third floor was weirder than the toilets on the other two floors. The windows were sealed shut, and there was not a single stain on the wall. It looked like this place had not been used before the school closed down.
Entering the room, the doors of all six cubicles were tightly shut. This gave Chen Ge a strange feeling, like there were living people hiding inside all six cubicles.
The fifth and sixth cubicles on the first floor were closed because they were filled with trash. Could it be that the six cubicles on the third floor were also filled with trash?
Chen Ge walked to the first cubicle and leaned against the door to listen. He did not hear the crying of a baby or the giggling of a girl.
Then he did something even bolder. He squatted down and looked into the cubicle through the gap.
Empty?
There were no mops or brooms, and there were no legs to stand on; it was just a normal cubicle.
Chen Ge gave the door a push, and it slid open. The cubicle was very clean. He touched the door, and if not for the thick layer of dust that covered it, he would have thought this place had been cleaned every day.
"The whole education block was destroyed by the fire, but this toilet does not have any burn marks. This is similar to the last classroom on the first floor." The similarity attracted Chen Ge's attention. In that case, the mission target that I'm looking for should be here.
He pushed open the doors of the next few cubicles before stopping at the fifth cubicle.
"I have a very bad feeling. Could there be something dirty hiding behind the door?" Chen Ge stuffed the doll that his parents had left for him into his collar. He gripped the mallet and used the head of the mallet to push the cubicle door open.
The door turned, and when he saw the scene inside the cubicle, Chen Ge subconsciously took a step back.
The walls and partition of the fifth cubicle looked like graffiti. There were many eyes drawn on them, and they were the size of a real person's eyes.
Before opening the door, Chen Ge had imagined the scene behind the door. It could be a girl with a pale face, a monster with a ghastly face, or a madman covered in blood.
However, he did not expect the scene behind the door to be so creepy.
Why are there so many eyes on the walls and partition?
On a stormy night, seeing this scene inside an abandoned school, Chen Ge felt a chill run down his spine.
Once the door opened, it felt like there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him. Even standing outside would be scary, much less entering the cubicle.
The person who drew these eyes inside the cubicle must have a mental problem.
The eyes appeared to be watching the person inside the cubicle. Chen Ge looked at them for a while before closing the cubicle door.
Being stared at by so many eyes at night was too much for him.
I've found the mission venue, but how am I supposed to complete this side mission? Hide inside the cubicle and wait for the red shadow to come under the scrutiny of all the eyes on the walls and partition? Isn't that a bit too much?
Chen Ge stared at the door for a long time before opening the door to the sixth cubicle. There were many eyes drawn inside the cubicle as well.
