The female teacher looked to be in her fifties. She wore a light grey outfit and her back was slightly hunched.
It was too late for Han Fei to hide. The teacher moved soundlessly to Han Fei's side.
"Cough cough …"
Clutching her chest, the teacher started to cough violently as she walked past Han Fei.
Once her mouth opened, Han Fei noticed something was wrong.
This elderly teacher's lips and eyelids were sewn shut with a thin golden thread. Her ears were stuffed with black blood stains.
She could sense Han Fei's presence but she did not do anything to Han Fei. She merely coughed. Then she silently moved away from Han Fei like he was some kind of misfortune.
'Li Jingmei?'
This woman who looked to be in her fifties was Lee Xun's elder sister. She was also the oldest teacher at Yi Ming Private Academy.
'She did not harm me nor did she help me. It was as if she could not see anything.'
Li Jingmei's information appeared in Han Fei's mind. This teacher was poached from a public school by the headmaster. She was about to retire.
'Her eyes and lips are sewn shut. Did she take Ma Manjiang's money to keep her mouth shut?'
Everything in the manager mission was based on Jing Sheng's memory. A child's impression of the world was different from an adult's. It was absurd but also frighteningly real.
Li Jingmei should know part of the truth but she did not plan to help Ma Manjiang nor did she have the courage to help Jing Sheng. She was one of the silent students at this school. She did not care about anything that happened to her until the black fire reached her body.
The female teacher walked past Han Fei with her hunched back.
After she walked away, Han Fei finally arrived at the 4th floor of the office building.
The temperature in the corridor dropped. Based on Jing Sheng's memory, this place was a very bad place to be.
'Is there no one here?'
Compared to the noisy education block, the office building was very quiet. Any sound made here would be amplified.
Based on the information in his memory, Han Fei found the teacher's office.
He twisted the doorknob. The door was locked. Han Fei knocked lightly on the door. He did not use much force but the knocking echoed down the corridor.
Almost at the same time he knocked on the door, noisy footsteps came from the stairs, as if a huge beast was running madly towards him on all fours.
'Ma Manjiang? Was it Li Jingmei? "
With no time to hesitate, Han Fei ran down the corridor. He planned to leave from the other end of the building.
When he reached the end of the corridor, he heard another set of footsteps coming from the other corridor. The other person purposely lowered their footsteps but Han Fei still managed to pick them up.
"Both the left and right corridors are occupied?"
Han Fei once again had a taste of Ma Manjiang's cunningness and viciousness. After the monster found out Han Fei's location, he did not act rashly. Instead, he ordered the other monsters to surround Han Fei.
"A normal Ma Manjiang wouldn't be this smart, it's the butterfly that's controlling it!"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Han Fei was about to be trapped on the fourth floor.
He stepped back and accidentally bumped into the door of the headmaster's office.
This office was located at the end of the corridor. The door was not locked, and he could vaguely hear someone talking inside the room.
Without hesitation, Han Fei pushed open the door and entered the principal's office.
A rancid stench permeated the air. When Han Fei peered into the room, his eyelids twitched.
Behind the headmaster's desk sat an old man who was so fat that he was out of shape. His body was stuck between the chair. The rotting fat piled up on the floor and covered the entire desk. It was a ghastly sight.
'This is the headmaster? Why does the headmaster look like this in Jing Sheng's memory? '
He appeared to be unable to move freely. Just opening his eyes to look around drained him of all his energy.
In front of this fat old man who couldn't even move, stood a young female teacher dressed in plain clothes.
Around her neck was a blood-stained necklace. Strangely enough, even though the necklace was stained with blood, it gave off a sweet scent.
The female teacher was enveloped in the fragrance of the necklace. There was a sweet smile on her youthful face.
'Found her!'
The female teacher who stood before the headmaster's desk was Jing Sheng's class teacher!
"Teacher!"
Han Fei ran over. The female teacher who was reporting to the headmaster was startled. She turned to look at Han Fei, "Hello, how can I help you?"
The gentle voice echoed in Han Fei's ears. This was the first time someone had spoken to Han Fei since he started the manager mission.
In this school shrouded in grey fog, after being hated and hunted by so many people, finally someone was willing to listen to him.
The footsteps approached. Han Fei knew he did not have much time left.
Since the monstrous headmaster was in the room, Gu Jun could not bring himself to say anything. When he walked to the female teacher's side, he whispered into her ear, "Ma Manjiang lied to you. That animal in human skin would even harm his own students! Everything about him is a disguise! If you don't believe me, you can go and check the security cameras. "
Han Fei told the female teacher where the cameras were hidden.
"Teacher, this kind of joke is not funny at all." When the female teacher started to suspect Ma Manjiang, the blood-stained necklace around her neck would drip something that looked like syrup. It emitted a rich fragrance. "Teacher Ma is the most popular teacher among the students. He is also the teacher that I should learn from. He was once my senior and my role model."
The blood-stained necklace around the female teacher's neck appeared to be a gift from Ma Manjiang. The necklace represented Ma Manjiang's sweet words and vows.
Due to the presence of this necklace, whenever the female teacher tried to think independently, she would be influenced by the sweet fragrance.
"Teacher, the fragrance on your necklace is made from cadaveric oil. You've been deceived by Ma Manjiang's lies!"
Han Fei knew he did not have much time left. He reached out to grab the necklace but his fingers could not penetrate the invisible fragrance.
The female teacher still believed in Ma Manjiang. Han Fei thought about the things that the female teacher had done in real life. She only started her investigation after Ol 'Lee's death.
In other words, after witnessing the blood and death, she started to believe in Jin Sheng.
Without hesitation, Han Fei used the broken teacup to slit his finger open.
The bloody hand successfully penetrated the fragrance. Han Fei grabbed the necklace and yanked it off the female teacher's neck!
The fragrance dissipated instantly. The female teacher saw the blackened blood stain on the necklace.
"Remember what I said!"
Han Fei shoved the necklace into his pocket to prevent it from falling into Ma Manjiang's hands again.
At that moment, the footsteps from the corridor approached.
The door to the headmaster's office was pushed open. Ma Manjiang with that kind and upright face appeared at the door like a monster.
After losing the necklace, there was a trace of fear in the female teacher's eyes that looked at Ma Manjiang.
Actually, she already knew Ma Manjiang was not a perfect person. However, she had been tricked by Ma Manjiang's sweet words so she did not suspect him.
"Cough cough …"
There was a series of coughs. Li Jingmei also appeared at the door. The golden stitches that covered her eyes had increased.
"So it was you who told Ma Manjiang."
Other than the victims, no one else could be trusted at this school.
Gripping the broken pieces of the teacup tightly in his hand, Han Fei wanted to struggle one last time after finally making it this far.
Retreating, Han Fei saw the chair beside the table from the corner of his eyes.
When Ma Manjiang entered the room, Han Fei grabbed the chair and smashed it through the window of the headmaster's office.
Dropping the chair, Han Fei leaped onto the windowsill. He stared at the air conditioner on the 3rd floor. After taking a deep breath, he jumped down without hesitation!
