"Then, I'll leave this place to you."
Fangzheng gestured at the yellow-haired delinquent.
"I'll go find the others."
"Wait, I'll go with you!"
"You?"
Fangzheng was stunned when he saw Blondie volunteering himself.
"You mean, you're going to leave with me and leave the two girls here?"
"No, this …"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Blondie remembered that there were two girls here, including Sensei Yui and Yuto Suzumoto …
"We'll be fine."
At this moment, Kudo Yui also stood up. She stretched out her hand and held Suzumoto's shoulder, then looked at Fangzheng. However, Fangzheng obviously did not see it that way.
"I don't think there's no problem. You know, the ghosts here aren't easy to deal with. I'm fine with it, but what about you guys? If a ghost comes looking for trouble with you while I'm away, I won't be able to come back in time. Or do you guys have any way to deal with those ghosts? "
"This …"
Faced with Fangzheng's question, the three of them were speechless for a while. They did not know what to say. Just as Fangzheng said, they were just ordinary people without any special abilities. If they encountered a ghost, their only option was to run away. Under such circumstances …
"Then, can't we go with you?"
Blondie obviously knew how to ride on someone's coattails. He was also very quick-witted. Indeed, just as Fangzheng had said, if they stayed here, it was very likely that they would encounter another attack from the specters. If that was the case, why not just ride on someone else's coattails? After all, he had just demonstrated his ability to easily repel the Specters. If they had his protection, their chances of survival would increase!
"Hmm …"
Fangzheng thought about Blondie's suggestion for a moment. In all fairness, he did not really want to bring a few burdens along. But on the other hand, Blondie might be the "protagonist" of this dungeon. Maybe bringing them along could trigger a few main events and end this troublesome dungeon trip earlier.
"Alright."
In the end, Fangzheng nodded in agreement. To be honest, if he had an artifact or could use spells, then Fangzheng would be more inclined to leave these people here, and then let go of the barrier to protect their lives. However, Fangzheng could only use the first flame, and this classroom might not be safe.
Besides, if he left them here, it would remind Fangzheng of the plot of the games he played in the past. The main character would face the enemy alone and leave the NPC to guard the house. The protagonist successfully eliminated the enemy, but when he returned home, he found that his house had been raided by the boss, and all the NPCs had been captured by the boss. The protagonist had no choice but to embark on the road of rescue again...
Speaking of which, what was the use of the protagonist saving the group of NPCs? They did not help when he was fighting the stronghold, nor did they help when he was fighting the Boss. Even when he was facing the heavily guarded Sanctuary of the final Boss, they would only cheer him on and let him rush in alone to take care of the cult leader.
After the protagonist went through all the hardships to get out, you still have the cheek to lick his boots and say that it's "everyone's victory"?
Ptui!!!
If not for the game's mechanics, Fangzheng would have taken his gun and shot those bastards in the face and sent them to accompany the Boss.
Hmm … Come to think of it …
"Let's go."
Fangzheng immediately changed his mind.
Even if there were a few more people to block the bullets, it would be better than a bunch of salted fish that only knew how to cheer on the radio!
Wouldn't it be more comfortable to cheer on the spot?
As for whether there would be a problem with more people … .what a joke. With Fangzheng's protection, as long as they didn't get themselves killed, there wouldn't be any problems!
"But let me make something clear first."
Of course, thoughts were just thoughts. Fangzheng still needed to set three rules.
"You must listen to my commands completely. Without my orders, you are not allowed to run around or do other things. You must stay by my side. If you want to do anything, you must report to me first. Understood?"
"This ….."
"No problem!"
Hearing Fangzheng's request, Blondie seemed to be in a difficult position, while Kudo Yui quickly nodded. She also understood that they needed a backbone at this time. She originally planned to be the backbone herself, but it was obvious that in this dangerous environment, it was impossible for her to protect her students by herself.
But right now, the strength shown by Kasugano was far beyond their imagination. Only by following him could they survive. Under such circumstances, who would be dissatisfied?
Blondie and Yuto Suzumoto might be a little embarrassed because they were young and impetuous, but for Kudo Yui, as a teacher, as long as she could protect her students, she was willing to do anything!
"Then let's get ready. We're going to find that Ayumi Shinozaki."
Previously, Fangzheng and Kudo Yui had walked around the entire main building, but they did not meet anyone. Right now, he could only hope that Ayumi Shinozaki, who was also a protagonist, could "trigger" some kind of event.
The other three naturally nodded in agreement to Fangzheng's suggestion. They were worried about Ayumi to begin with. When she ran out earlier, Blondie wanted to chase after her, but she ran so fast that they did not know where to look for her ….
Just like that, Fangzheng led the three burdens out of Grade A's classroom and chased in the direction that Ayumi had left in.
Along the way, they walked and stopped, but they did not see any trace of Ayumi. But these protagonists were really "unscrupulous". They could always find some clues in various places. Based on these clues, Fangzheng almost pieced together the whole story background of this dungeon.
Legend had it that there was a Kami Elementary School here 30 years ago. Of course, in the beginning, it was all good for everyone. But later on, an accident happened. First, a teacher died in an accident, then four children mysteriously disappeared. In the end, the police found the four kidnapped children and the suspected kidnapper, the son of the headmaster, in the basement of Kami Elementary School.
Of the four children, three were already dead. All of their tongues had been cut off. Some even had their eyes gouged out and half of their heads cut off. They died miserably. Based on the description of the last surviving child, the police arrested the headmaster's son who was at the scene at the time.
At that time, the suspect's sanity was not very clear, but the police still arrested him. After all, the headmaster's son was in the basement when the bodies were found. He was also holding the scissors that were used to cut off the children's tongues. Coupled with the testimony of the last survivor, the police still arrested him as the murderer.
Of course, the final result of the trial was that the headmaster's son was mentally unstable and committed the crime.
After this incident, Kami Elementary School was closed. The headmaster's son committed suicide, and the headmaster also committed suicide by jumping off a building. Later, the school was razed to the ground, and then … there was no more.
That should have been the case.
But now, this Kami Elementary School that should have disappeared had reappeared. The situation was a little strange.
Of course, according to the general theory, it must be because the three dead children were resentful, so they created a Kami Elementary School. But …
"What does this have to do with Sachiko?"
Walking right in front, Fangzheng observed his surroundings as he pondered and asked.
According to Yuen Suzumoto's memories, the two ghosts she met were named Guan Naixue and Mikoto, both girls. The victims in the report were three girls and one boy, so Sachiko obviously could not be a boy's name. Although the names of the victims appeared in the form of A and B due to the control of the report, a little thought was enough to draw a conclusion.
However, there was a contradiction in this.
"Ayumi Shinozaki once told you the story of Sachiko, right?"
"Yes."
Blondie nodded when he heard Fangzheng's question.
"I remember Shinozaki said that although Sachiko is long dead, as long as you have any thoughts or worries about your friends, she will be willing to help you solve them …"
"Long dead."
Fangzheng turned around the corridor and continued forward.
"If Sachiko is really the only one of the four kidnapped children who survived, then according to the report, she should have left the city. But in the Sachiko Incantation of Happiness, it said that Sachiko was long dead … In other words, the last girl to survive also died in Kami Elementary School? Then, how did she die? Who killed her? "
"This …"
Hearing Fangzheng's question, the other three also began to think. Just as Fangzheng said, if the information they collected was true, then it meant that the four children in the Kami Elementary School kidnapping case were not spared. But who was the murderer who killed the last survivor?
According to the report, the son of the principal who was suspected to be the murderer was already detained by the police. It was impossible for him to have the time and opportunity to commit the crime. So, who could it be?
Could it be that the other party was just a scapegoat? Or was the real murderer someone else?
Or was this not a single person's crime, but a gang's?
But for Fangzheng, these were not important. The reason why he was thinking about these questions was because he was bored along the way.
After all, he had nothing to do along the way ….
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Accompanied by a scream, a ghost with a bloody upper body suddenly appeared in the air. Its eyes were bleeding, and it stared at them. But before the ghost could do anything, Fangzheng flicked his finger slightly. The next moment, a fire snake instantly flew out and swallowed the unlucky ghost.
"Ahhh …."
Fangzheng yawned, glanced at the shadow that had been burned to ashes in the air, and continued forward.
How boring ….
"…."
Seeing this scene, the other three were also silent. In fact, since the beginning, they had been attacked by ghosts several times in a row. But as soon as the ghosts came out, they did not even have time to show their power before Fangzheng completely burned them down.
This also made the three completely understand what kind of person they were riding on.
"Thud —!!!"
However, when they reached the third floor, they suddenly heard a low sound of collision in the distance.
"Listen! Is there a sound?! "
Blondie immediately became excited. The others also focused their attention and began to look for the source of the sound.
"Thud … Thud …!!"
"Over there!!"
At this moment, Midori Yui also heard the sound. She hurried forward, and the four of them came to the innermost women's toilet on the third floor. Soon, they saw a wooden door that was being flipped back and forth in the depths of the toilet. When they walked into the toilet, the scene in front of them surprised them.
In one of the cubicles of the toilet, a short-haired girl in a sailor suit was hanging from a beam. Her cheeks were red, and her eyes were white. She was struggling non-stop!!
"Naomi!!"
Suzumoto screamed when she saw the short-haired girl. The other two could not help but exclaim too.
"Nakajima!!"
"Nakajima!! Cheer up!! "
While shouting, the three of them hurried forward and tried to save the girl from the beam, but they had no idea what to do. Upon seeing this scene, Fangzheng pricked up his brows. Then, he gently snapped his fingers. The next moment, a flame instantly shot out from between Fangzheng's fingers and burned the rope hanging from the beam. The short-haired girl let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground.
"Nakajima, are you okay?!"
They did not care how dirty the toilet floor was. They hurriedly carried the short-haired girl out of the toilet. After a while, the short-haired girl slowly woke up.
"Ugh … Cough … Cough!!"
She gripped the rope around her neck and coughed loudly several times before she could breathe again. Then, the short-haired girl opened her eyes. When she saw the people in front of her, she was stunned.
"Sensei Kudo? Kudo? I … "
While saying that, the short-haired girl looked at everyone blankly.
"What the hell … happened?"
