At the same time, Fangzheng and Sensei Kudo Yui Suzumoto, who had been rescued by them, returned to the classroom of Year 1 A-Class. There, Fangzheng saw the two other students that Sensei Kudo Yui Suzumoto mentioned, Kishunuma Yoshiki and Ayumi Shinozaki.
Kishunuma Yoshiki looked like a delinquent, while Ayumi Shinozaki was a petite girl with two ponytails. The two of them were quite happy to see Suzumoto. When Suzumoto finished telling them what happened to her, everyone was very surprised.
"I didn't expect those ghosts to be so scary …."
"I didn't expect that either …."
Suzumoto was also quite depressed. She had treated the two ghosts as friends before, but she never expected that they would want to kill her ….
But Fangzheng was not surprised at all.
"That's not surprising. They're ghosts. There must be a certain difference in values between them and living people."
"Is that so? Haruhino-kun? "
"Yes, that's right."
Fangzheng shrugged, then looked at Kudo Yui Suzumoto and the others and spread out his hands.
"Let's put it this way. You can think of the wraiths here as a kind of mental illness …. I don't mean it in a derogatory way, but from a fundamental point of view. The souls here have been trapped here for a long time. The pain they experience is unimaginable to ordinary people, so no matter how innocent and cute a ghost looks, once it's stimulated, its reaction will definitely be more intense. Not to mention the wraiths …. "
With that said, Fangzheng looked at Suzumoto again.
"Just like you said before, you want to stay here and accompany them. You think it's easy, so how likely do you think it is to be implemented? You're a living person, and they're dead, and there's no food here. Are you really naive enough to think that as long as you're with these children, they'll be able to rest in peace? But for them, if you want to be with them, the best way is to kill you too and turn you into a specter. That way, you can be with them forever …. "
"Eh?!!"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Yukari Yukimoto's face suddenly turned pale. At this time, Kishunuma Yoshiki couldn't stand it anymore and stood up.
"Hey, that's enough. Stop scaring her!"
"I'm not trying to scare her."
However, Fangzheng wasn't bothered by Kishinuma Yoshiki's attempt to stop him.
"I'm just warning you to be careful with your words when you're dealing with spirits. Because you and they are completely different existences, even if it is the same word, they will understand it in different ways. Perhaps it's just a simple sentence to you, but it might lead to a fatal disaster …. "
"That's right."
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from the door. Everyone turned their heads and saw a girl with short hair, glasses, and a purple school uniform. No one knew when she had appeared there, but she was staring at them blankly.
"Did you just get locked up here?"
"That's right."
Upon hearing the purple-clothed girl's question, Kishunuma Yoshiki nodded.
"What about you? You too? I've never seen your school uniform before …. "
"No."
However, the purple-clothed girl shook her head in response to Kishunuma Yoshiki's question.
"I died a long time ago …. I came here to look for someone important …."
At that moment, Ayumi Shinozaki suddenly looked at the purple-clothed girl and asked.
"That … excuse me, may I ask … are you Miss Seven Stars?"
"… Yes."
"Who's that?"
Both Kishunuma Yoshiki and Fangzheng were confused when they heard the name, but Ayumi Shinozaki seemed very excited.
"She's a female high school psychic medium, Miss Seven Stars!"
"Ah!"
At that moment, Kishunuma Yoshiki seemed to remember.
"The one who won an award last year and appeared on TV?"
"That's right, that's right!!"
Ayumi Shinozaki became more and more excited.
"She's very famous on the main page of Psionic Dialogue and Supernatural Intelligence. I often read your blog. Miss Seven Stars! "
"Thank you …."
However, the purple-clothed girl's expression didn't change at all.
"But … it probably won't be updated anymore."
"After the incantation for 'Miss Happy Sachiko' was released, it stopped updating. I've been worried. I didn't expect … it would turn out like this …. "
Saying that, Akumi Shinozaki looked at Seven Star with sadness in her eyes. Fangzheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the purple-clothed girl not far away with a thoughtful gaze. At that moment, the purple-clothed girl spoke.
"The reason you're imprisoned in this school is because Miss Happy Sachiko's incantation failed."
"Failed?"
Upon hearing this, the other four were alarmed apart from Fangzheng. As for the purple-dressed girl, she continued.
"Someone must've recited too much or too little. That person didn't recite the corresponding number of times."
"Huh?! How could …. "
"Maybe it was on purpose. Some of my friends thought it was too troublesome, so they just played along. Or maybe they just wanted to have some fun and didn't want it to end, so they failed. "
"How could it be …."
"Even if it wasn't on purpose, if someone did it half-heartedly, it could still fail."
"Is … is that true?"
Ayumi Shinozaki looked at the others with an unfriendly gaze.
"Kishi Nu! It can't be you, right? I told you so many times that I had to recite it nine times! "
"It's not me, it's not me, I really did recite it …."
Facing the ghostly Ayumi Shinozaki, Kishi Nu Yoshiki waved his hands in fright.
"It's not me, it's not me, I really did recite it nine times!"
"Who knows?"
However, the girl named Seven Stars didn't seem to care. On the contrary, she sneered.
"Maybe some people thought it was just whatever. After all, they were chanting it to themselves, and no one else knew about it. They were just playing around. Who would have thought it would trigger such a terrifying incident.... Hahaha, no one came to apologize, and no one said it was their mistake...."
"Kishi Nu? It's not really you, is it? "
Not only Ayumi, but even Yui and Cocoon also looked at Kishi Nu in surprise. It was no wonder that they would think so. After all, Fangzheng was an outsider, and he didn't participate in the ceremony with them. On the other hand, Kishunuma Yoshiki looked like a carefree delinquent. If there was anyone who would mispronounce it, it was most likely him.
"It's really not me!!!"
Kishi Nu Yoshiki was on the verge of tears. But at that moment, Fangzheng's voice suddenly rang out.
"Very good reasoning. Very interesting, very interesting. So, in return, let me tell you my reasoning. "
"Haruhino-kun?"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, everyone turned to look at him in surprise. Fangzheng sneered and took out a few small pieces of paper from his pocket.
"I found these pieces of paper beside the dead people when I went out with Sensei Kudo to look for the others. Judging from the records, almost all of these people were sent to this school because they played the game 'Happy Sachiko'."
Fangzheng pointed to Ayumi Shinozaki next to him.
"I heard from her just now that she often reads your blog, and the last thing recorded in your blog is the 'Happy Sachiko' spell, right …."
"Yes …."
"Then, Miss Shinozaki."
As he spoke, Fangzheng looked at Ayumi. Sensing Fangzheng's gaze, Ayumi looked back at him nervously.
"Yes, what's the matter?"
"Did you propose to play 'Happy Sachiko' this time?"
"Yes, yes …."
"The rules you mentioned are based on the records in Miss Seven Star's blog, right?"
"Yes!"
Ayumi nodded vigorously.
"I can guarantee that I didn't remember the spell incorrectly!!"
"That's right."
Fangzheng nodded, then revealed a strange smile.
"Then, what if the recorded spell was wrong to begin with?"
"Huh?!"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, the quartet was shocked once again. Ayumi widened her eyes as she looked at Fangzheng in disbelief.
"… .it was wrong to begin with?"
"That's right."
Fangzheng looked at the girl in purple standing at the door again. He narrowed his eyes slightly.
"What she said just now wasn't wrong. Maybe you'll be teleported here as long as you recite the spell incorrectly. But … .none of us knows what the correct spell is. The current version is only the one recorded on Miss Seven Star's blog, but … .who can guarantee that it's absolutely correct? "
"But, but why would Miss Seven Star do that?"
Ayumi didn't know what to say.
"Who knows? Maybe she's looking for a scapegoat, or maybe she wants to drag more people down with her."
Fangzheng stared coldly at Seven Stars of the Tree of the Tree.
"The reason why I'm suspicious is because she appeared here and tried to sow discord between you. If she's just an ordinary ghost, I can only say that she's a psychopath with a wide range of thoughts. But she's actually the initiator of the spread of the spell 'Lucky Sachiko', so I can't help but think too much about it …. Not to mention, she's a psychic, and according to you, she's even been on a TV show. She'll definitely understand the consequences of the spell's failure better than the ordinary people who don't know the truth. And I have to admit that the kind of situation she mentioned that someone might accidentally recite the spell incorrectly because they find it troublesome to do so, so …. "
Fangzheng snorted again.
"Why did she put the spell on her blog? Even if the spell she recorded was real, if one or two people really recited it incorrectly, wouldn't that be the same as sending a bunch of people to their deaths? Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't be spread, right? But she actually posted it on her blog … I think her motive shouldn't be as simple as … wishing everyone happiness. "
"This …"
After listening to Fangzheng's analysis, everyone looked at the purple-clothed girl with more doubts and vigilance. Indeed, as Fangzheng said, if the person who spread the incantation was just an ordinary person, perhaps the person did not understand the hidden danger. But the Seven Stars of the Wood of Darkness was a famous psychic. It was impossible for her not to know how great the risk would be if she mispronounced the incantation, but she still posted the incantation on her blog ….
"Huhuhu …"
Like the laughter of a ghost from hell, in the next moment, the Seven Stars of Gui Wood in front of him suddenly grinned and laughed.
"Hahaha … Ahahahaha … So what? Those who believe me are idiots. As long as it's for Master, I'm willing to do anything. I'm willing to do anything!! "
As the Seven Stars of Gui Wood screamed, the ground around them began to tremble, and lights began to flicker from time to time.
"You don't understand. You're just funerary objects …. You'll die here. Everyone will die here! No one will survive!! "
Along with the screams, the crowd saw the Seven Stars of Gui Wood stretch out her hand. Then, a cloud of dark mist emerged from behind her and condensed into a huge phantom that pounced on the crowd.
"Ahhh —!!"
Seeing this scene, almost everyone was petrified. But at that moment, Fangzheng appeared in front of them.
"So you've confessed? Very well, then I'll be the one to pronounce your crime. "
As he spoke, Fangzheng raised his right hand. The blazing first flame appeared on his fingertips again.
"The death penalty will be carried out immediately!"
As Fangzheng spoke, the burning first flame suddenly spiraled and spread, turning into a giant snake that opened its bloody mouth and completely swallowed the Seven Stars of Gui Wood who had turned into a black mist.
"Ahhh —!!!"
Accompanied by a scream, a figure completely disappeared in the flame. As for Fangzheng, he shook his hand and put away the flames.
"Well, at least one culprit has been dealt with."
"Phew …."
Seeing that the crisis in front of them was resolved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. But at that moment, they heard a murmur.
"It's all my fault … It's all my fault … It's all my fault …"
"Hey, Shinozaki!?"
Kishinuma Yoshiki looked down and saw Ayumi Shinozaki hugging her head with her hands and curling up into a ball, mumbling to herself in a low voice.
"It's all my fault …. It's all my fault …. It's all my fault …."
"Shinozaki! Cheer up! "
At that moment, Yui Kudo also came over and reached out her hand to cheer Ayumi Shinozaki up. But at the moment when her hand touched Ayumi Shinozaki, the latter screamed hysterically.
"Noooooooo!!!"
Accompanied by the scream, Ayumi Shinozaki pushed Yui Kudo away and rushed out of the classroom like a madman.
"Hey! Shinozaki!!! "
Kishinuma Yoshiki also rushed out of the classroom, but Ayumi Shinozaki could no longer be seen in the dark corridor.
"Haa …. Haa …."
In the dark corridor, Ayumi Shinozaki ran like a madman.
It's all my fault!
If I didn't read that blog, if I didn't ask everyone to chant those incantations, then everyone wouldn't have been involved in this. It's all my fault!
Woo woo woo ….
Thinking of this, Ayumi Shinozaki's tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably. She had no idea where she was going. But she didn't want to go back to the classroom. She didn't want to see the other people's faces. She didn't know how to face them.
While wiping her tears, Ayumi Shinozaki ran around the corner. Then, she bumped into a dark figure and fell to the ground.
"Ah — —"
Sitting on the ground, Ayumi Shinozaki screamed. She looked up and was surprised to see …. A giant wearing a mask and holding a huge weapon in his hand was standing there, looking at her coldly.
"This, this, this …."
Seeing the terrifying monster in front of her, Ayumi Shinozaki was so scared that she could hardly speak. The giant stared at the girl coldly, then raised the weapon in his hand and smashed it down.
"Boom!!!" “
Perhaps it was her instinct, but the moment the weapon smashed down, Ayumi Shinozaki jumped up from the ground and dodged the blow. She screamed and ran back the way she came.
"No! Help! Help!!!"
However, in the empty corridor, there was no reply. There was only Ayumi Shinozaki's screams and the sound of the monster dragging the weapon ….
"Help!"
Ayumi Shinozaki had run to the end of the corridor, but the classroom door there could not be opened. She had nowhere to go. Behind her, the monster's footsteps were getting closer and closer ….
"Click!"
At that moment, the cleaning box next to her suddenly opened. A hand reached out from inside, covered Ayumi Shinozaki's mouth, and pulled her in!
"Ugh!!!"
This sudden attack startled Ayumi Shinozaki. She struggled desperately, but at this moment, a cold voice rang in her ears. "Don't worry, I won't let you go."
"Shut up. Don't talk. You'll be discovered."
"Ugh?"
Hearing the voice, Ayumi Shinozaki looked behind her and saw a black-haired girl wearing an unfamiliar uniform standing behind her. Her figure was almost the same as her.
"Phew …."
Seeing that the other party was human, Ayumi Shinozaki breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could completely relax … A series of heavy footsteps once again made Ayumi Shinozaki's heart beat faster.
"Thud … Thud … Thud …"
The monster's footsteps got closer and closer …. Then … it stopped in front of the cleaning box where the two of them were hiding.
