"There's someone inside the cubicle!"
When he saw the pair of black leather shoes, Chen Ge was reminded of Mr. Bai from the eastern campus. The man was wearing a pair of black leather shoes like this.
"Don't come any closer."
Chen Ge took two steps back. He stuck Lin Sisi's phone into the gap of the cubicle and snapped a quick picture.
Lowering his head to look at the phone, the thing that Chen Ge was worried about did not happen. There was only a pair of leather shoes inside the cubicle; there was no 'person' hiding inside.
"Lin Sisi's phone can take pictures of ghosts and other unique things. There is nothing in the picture, which means that there is only a pair of shoes inside the cubicle. But if there is no one inside the cubicle, why is the cubicle door locked?"
The cubicle door could only be locked from the inside, and the position of the pair of black leather shoes made it look like there was someone standing inside; it did not look like they had been shoved inside from the outside.
"Sir, are you sure you're not mistaken? Who would go to the top floor of the education block to use the toilet at night? It's scary to even think about it. " The memory in Zhu Long's mind had loosened. He remembered some things. They were blurry, and he could not explain them clearly, but they did affect him. They caused some changes in him that no one noticed. For example, he started to keep his distance from other members and was more willing to stay by Chen Ge's side. It felt like Chen Ge was the same kind of person as him.
"You guys stay here. If anyone comes, inform me immediately."
Chen Ge shook the cubicle door and used brute force to force it open.
The narrow cubicle was painted with many faces. Standing inside, it felt like one was being stared at by many people.
"Why is there a pair of leather shoes here?"
Chen Ge did not find anything out of place inside the first cubicle. He came to the second cubicle. With his previous experience, he took out his phone and aimed it at the gap of the cubicle.
The picture showed that there was also a pair of shoes inside the second cubicle, but they were not black leather shoes but a pair of old blue sneakers.
"They are placed in the same position. Is there a reason behind this?"
Chen Ge checked the first six cubicles one by one. There was a pair of shoes in each cubicle, and they were all men's shoes. There were sneakers, sneakers, and flats. They were all different sizes, so they probably belonged to different people.
The black leather shoes in the first cubicle are very similar to Mr. Bai's shoes, so they should belong to an adult. The shoes in the other five cubicles are for students. Does this mean that each pair of shoes represents a person?
"When Lin Sisi was teased by the whole class, could the owner of these shoes be the one who targeted Lin Sisi the most?"
The biggest difference between ghosts and living people was that they were made of obsession and negative emotions. Words like understanding and kindness did not fit them at all.
No matter what kind of person Lin Sisi was when he was alive, the moment he became a Specter, his body and mind would be consumed by hatred. This was one of the obsessions of a Specter, the foundation that supported his existence.
Trapping the person who had pranked him inside a cubicle to keep him company, based on Chen Ge's understanding of Specters, they might do something like that.
"Teacher! Someone is coming toward the education block! " Zhou Tu supported Wang Yicheng at the toilet door and shouted at Chen Ge, "They seem to be coming from the direction of the lab building!"
"They're coming for us?" Chen Ge hurried to the last cubicle. He took out his phone subconsciously to snap a picture, but to his shock, he realized that the door of the seventh cubicle had been removed.
"Where's the seventh door?" Based on Chen Ge's previous speculation, the door that was related to Lin Sisi was most likely to appear inside the toilet, but he could not find it even after searching all over the toilet.
"Calm down, don't panic." Chen Ge bit on the tip of his tongue. He knew that the people downstairs still needed some time to get up. "Each door corresponds to a door-pusher, which means that there is only one door …"
His fingers touched the door frame, and Chen Ge realized that the axle of the seventh cubicle was broken. "The door of this cubicle was forced open from the inside!"
He lowered his head to look inside the cubicle. There were no shoes inside the seventh cubicle, but there were two bloody footprints.
The footprints were one in front of the other behind the other, like a person was walking out the door.
"If each pair of shoes represents a person, then did the person inside the last cubicle escape?" Chen Ge whipped his head around. Perhaps it was a psychological effect or some other reason, but the ugly people on the wall seemed to come alive, and their expressions were different from before.
"All the despair and negative emotions on the western campus have been transported to the eastern campus. The real 'blood door' is probably inside the toilet on the top floor of the education block."
Before the first problem was solved, a new one appeared. Veins popped on Chen Ge's forehead. He bit on the tip of his tongue to keep himself awake. "One step at a time, at least I know that I'm getting closer to the truth."
"Teacher! They're going up the stairs! We need to find a place to hide first! " Zhou Tu sounded anxious, and for some reason, he started to panic. "The people who entered the education block earlier don't look like students or teachers, and the way they walk is very strange!"
"The way they walk is strange?" Chen Ge immediately sensed that something was wrong. He called for Zhang Ju and Zhu Long to run out of the toilet. "Which building did they come from?"
"The corridor that is close to the toilet!"
"Okay! We'll go down from the other side! Be careful, don't let them see us! " Chen Ge temporarily did not plan to fight them head-on. He was the first to run down the stairs, but when he passed Wang Yicheng, he suddenly stopped.
His pupils narrowed, and his eyes fell on Wang Yicheng's shoes.
"Blue sneakers?"
The shoes that Wang Yicheng was wearing were the same as the shoes in the second cubicle!
"The shoes in the cubicle are all male shoes …" Chen Ge thought about it, and he suddenly realized that the shoes in the toilet were the same as the shoes of the students in Room 413.
"There are six people in Room 413, and the toilet on the top floor of the education block has seven cubicles. Six people for six cubicles, and there is one cubicle with a pair of black leather shoes, which represents the teacher. There are seven people in total." Chen Ge frowned. "Why does Lin Sisi hate his roommate so much? Didn't he purposely run back to the dormitory to remind his roommate to stay away from the toilet? "
Chen Ge rubbed his temples. There were too many things that he needed to think about. "The eastern campus is chaotic, and the western campus is more like a souvenir in a glass bottle. It's frozen in these few days of school attendance, and it keeps repeating itself. To find out the truth, I have to compare the two campuses at the same time!"
"The western campus is too perfect. It's so perfect that it feels unreal. It's like a child's dream. In comparison, the eastern campus is much more realistic."
Chen Ge's eyes moved away from Wang Yicheng's shoes. He had already made the decision to bring everyone to the eastern campus.
"I have no choice but to search for the memory in my dream and the truth in reality."
