Yin Hong hid behind the old headmaster, unwilling to come out. She looked nervous, but Chen Ge did not see much fear on her face. In other words, even facing three Red Specters, Yin Hong still had the confidence to escape.
Chen Ge had no idea what Yin Hong was relying on, so he could only be careful.
"Headmaster?" Chen Ge saw the old headmaster's silence like there was something he could not say.
"Both of them are Lee Xueyin. They are the same person." The headmaster's eyes that looked at the two girls were filled with love and guilt. "I know one of them is Yin Hong, and the other is Yin Bai, but no matter what their names are, they are both my family."
Reaching out to touch Yin Hong's head, the old headmaster shielded Yin Hong behind him.
A trace of disgust flashed across Yin Hong's eyes when the old headmaster touched her head. However, perhaps because the situation was too disadvantageous for her, and she still needed the old headmaster's support, she did not resist. Instead, she pretended to be obedient.
"Actually, Yin Hong is more like Xueyin. Facing the drunkard father and the wheelchair-bound mother, she could only protect herself." The headmaster pushed all the responsibility onto himself. "This is all my fault. I was blind to believe the lies of Xueyin's father. I personally pushed them into the fire pit."
Yin Bai did not seem to know what the headmaster was saying. She looked at the headmaster with confusion. Her pretty eyes were filled with confusion, and she mumbled the word grandpa.
Yin Hong's reaction was different from Yin Bai's. She was trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart. Her expression did not change much, but her eyes were suffused with blood.
The memory of the past was very harmful to her, and her body was slowly changing.
"Headmaster, I'm afraid things are not as simple as you think." Chen Ge did not want to hide anything from the headmaster. He opened Yin Hong's bag and found the ball of paper that he had found in Yin Hong's drawer.
Seeing the crumpled paper, the calmness on Yin Hong's face was shattered. She looked like the murderer had found out that his body had been found by the police.
The paper contained Yin Hong's dissatisfaction with the world and her wish to kill the headmaster.
Holding the papers in his hands, Chen Ge looked at the old headmaster, who wanted to protect Yin Hong, and Yin Hong, who gripped the old headmaster's shirt with reddened eyes. He hesitated again.
Shaking his head lightly, Chen Ge put the papers back into his bag. "Principal, can you explain in detail how Xueyin became like this?"
Putting away the paper filled with crazy words, Chen Ge noticed that both Yin Hong and the old headmaster sighed in relief.
He vaguely understood that the old principal actually knew everything.
"Yin Bai is the purest side of Xueyin's heart. She is innocent, kind, and innocent, but the reason she can live like that is because all the anxiety, fear, hatred, and other negative emotions are borne by Yin Hong. There was a trace of regret and anger in the old headmaster's voice. "Xueyin's mother was the first child I adopted. She was not in good health and could not bear a child, so I adopted Xueyin. At that time, I accompanied the couple. Xueyin was still very young at that time. I was very happy to see the family of three laughing and chatting happily. But later on, I realized that things were not as I had imagined. "
Chen Ge heard a trace of hatred in the old headmaster's voice. This surprised him. The old headmaster with such a good temper would hate someone so much.
"You can't judge a book by its cover. Xueyin's father is a complete liar. Initially, he approached Xueyin's mother not because he liked her but because he wanted to get his hands on the few properties under my name. He knew I did not have a biological child, so he purposely approached us. Everything, including the adoption of Xueyin, was a show for us. "
If that was all, the old headmaster would not have been so angry. What he said next was the real reason for his anger. "After he found out that I planned to donate all my properties and had already hired a lawyer to draft a will, his embarrassment turned into anger. Every day, he came up with various reasons to cause trouble. He beat up Xueyin's mother. One time, he even targeted Xueyin. Thankfully, Xueyin's mother found out in time."
The old man's voice was shaking. He was a good person, but that did not mean that he was not angry.
From another perspective, with the old headmaster's personality, he would not consume other Specters. The fact that he was able to become a Half Red Specter under such circumstances meant that he had a strong determination and had something that he had to complete.
"I found these things in Xueyin's diary in her room after she died. Do you know how much pain I felt when I read that diary?" The old headmaster pulled Yin Hong to his side. "Yin Bai would not have been able to survive in that kind of place, and that is why Yin Hong appeared."
After hearing what the old headmaster said, Chen Ge was thankful that he did not take out the balls of paper directly. He looked at Yin Hong and was suddenly reminded of something else.
Yin Bai had said that her father had suddenly left home and never returned. Initially, Chen Ge did not think too much about it, but after seeing Yin Hong, he could guess what had happened to the man.
He would never come back, and he would never come back.
Yin Hong originally had a problem with the old headmaster, and she had even wanted to hurt the old headmaster.
However, what happened next surprised her. When she was targeted by the three Red Specters, the old headmaster did not back down at all, shielding her behind him. In fact, he became her life-saving straw. This changed her view of the old headmaster.
Then, when she saw the regret on the old headmaster's face, a very uncomfortable feeling rose in her heart like a small crack had appeared on her cold heart.
"I didn't expect her to have such a past. I can understand that, but …" Chen Ge did not finish his sentence. He put away the headless woman and the red high heels. These two could not be considered real employees at the Haunted House. The headless woman was very unwilling, and the red high heels was even more disobedient. Even though the shoes were placed inside the backpack, more and more red footprints appeared on the table.
Putting away the two Red Specters was to show his attitude. Chen Ge decided to let the old headmaster deal with this himself. Even though Yin Hong's heart was filled with negative emotions, at the end of the day, she was one with Yin Bai.
With his hands on Yin Bai's shoulders, Chen Ge's eyes moved between Yin Hong and Yin Bai. He was about to ask the old headmaster some more questions when he suddenly realized something.
How come this situation between Yin Hong and Yin Bai feels so familiar? Like me and Li Wan City's shadow?
To be more precise, Chen Ge was reminded of himself and the ghost fetus. One was a cheerful Haunted House boss, and the other was the scariest presence in a four-star scenario.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute …" Chen Ge rubbed his temples. "My family told the old headmaster that Xue Ying is at the School of the Afterlife. In other words, he is very familiar with Xue Ying's situation. Could this be another hint that they are giving me?"
