Chapter 314: What Kind of Kids Do You Teach?

“It’s normal for newcomers to be nervous. You’ll slowly get used to it.” Brother Lee patted Gao Ming’s shoulder. “However, you’re lucky to have been assigned to our team.”

“Stop acting.” Ou Yang Susu pulled Brother Lee back. For some reason, she felt something special about Gao Ming, “Look at yourself before you go giving others advice.”

“Stop arguing,” Fan Li moved Ou Yang Susu away, “Teacher Liu ran into us as she escaped from the building. Not much time has passed. Xiao Guo and her parents should still be in this building. While the monsters are gathered in the activity room, we need to check this place. Then, we need to move before the monsters come to find us.”

After confirming Xiao Guo’s family was not at home, Fan Li planned to inspect the whole building for clues.

“Gao Ming, Youyou, you two are new at this. You can stay here to guard this place. Bai Shu, Ol’ Lee, you can guard the corridor to warn us if anything happens. The rest will search the other units with me.” Fan Li said quickly, “If something happens, you have to ensure your own safety before considering saving others.”

After assigning everyone’s mission, Fan Li and Ou Yang Susu left the front door and headed upstairs. Each horror game mission was the entrance to hell. If they were slightly careless, they would fall into the deep abyss. Fan Li didn’t look different from normal, but he was highly alerted. He moved lightly like a cat. His eyes scanned the corridors, leaving no stone unturned. There were more shredded fabrics in the corridor. Fan Li found a single children’s shoe. He paused when he was on the seventh floor. A lot of torn clothes were spread on the lightless staircase. A naked man was hanged among the heaps of smelly clothes. He was facing away from Fan Li. He had light breathing. His body was covered in heavy bruises.

“What is going on?” Ou Yang Susu squeezed over and took out a lead ball from her bag.

“Wait. I don’t think he’s a ghost.” Brother Lee stopped his wife. He and Fan Li approached the man from both sides. They untied the man and lay him on the ground. The man’s eyes were closed. He shivered in fear when he felt people coming. His face was ruined by wounds. It was harrowing to see.

“Don’t be scared. We’re here to save you.”

Hearing Fan Li’s voice, the man tried to open his eyes. His mouth opened. He tried so hard, as if he wanted to tell Fan Li something. However, due to his weakness, he failed to do so. In the end, he merely pointed at a home unit on their left.

Fan Li and Brother Lee turned to look. The door on their left was open. A family of five stood in the living room, facing away from them.

“This is bad...”

The woman, who was about to be swallowed by the mirror, started to struggle. Her hands smacked against the mirror. She used the last bit of her energy to tell Xiao Guo to leave.

Ten seconds later, the woman and the mirror returned to normal. Xiao Guo’s mother’s face seemed to have been left inside the mirror. Outside the mirror, the woman was like a body without a soul. Inside the mirror, she became more beautiful and a few years younger.

Her reflection looked at her child and smiled. Her gaze was so gentle that it felt as if she were looking at her favourite food. She moved her body inside the mirror. Her head slowly eased out of the mirror’s surface.

The video flickered, and the screen died. It short-circuited.

Youyou tried to restart the computer, but it was to no avail. She wanted to call Gao Ming for help. As she turned her head around, she caught sight of the bedroom. Her back chilled. There was a woman’s head inching out of the bedroom mirror. She wore heavy make-up. Her eyes and mouth were deep hollows. Her face was pulled taut like it could be stretched through at any moment.

“The video is continuing in real life!”

Chills curled around her legs like snakes. Fear froze Youyou in place. Her mouth fell open. As she was about to scream, Gao Ming, who was also in the living room, charged over!

He held a rice cooker that had some leftovers inside. Without any hesitation, he smashed the rice cooker on the woman’s head.

Gao Ming kicked the woman and then landed one after another fist on the mirror. The mirror cracked into smithereens. The blood that oozed out of the mirror drenched Gao Ming’s hands.

Youyou swallowed her scream back. The rice cooker rolled to the ground, and the ghost disappeared.

“Wait... Is this how we can chase the ghosts back?”
