Chapter 86: Wooden Door

Jiang Cheng’s words reminded Fatty of many bad things. In the last mission, the world also sunk into the eternal night when the mission was ending. The school campus was silent. The occasional bug chirping from before had already disappeared.

Jiang Cheng and Fatty stopped wasting time. They hurried to their destination. Along the way, Fatty’s face was scrunched together. He looked at Jiang Cheng and opened and closed his mouth many times. In the end, he uttered anxiously, “Doctor, do you think the others have been killed?”

Jiang Cheng thought about it and replied, “Not necessarily.”

Hearing that, colour returned to Fatty’s face.Fịndd new updates on n(o)v/e/lbin(.)com

“Perhaps one or two have been captured by ghosts.” Jiang Cheng said, “Their limbs have been yanked off, and they are being kept as pets.”

Fatty almost cried hearing that. After twenty minutes of hurrying, they saw the building that was sitting alone on the empty field. It shouldn’t have been that visible in the dark, but there were two giant red lanterns hanging in front of the front yard gate. The lanterns emitted crimson light. They were the eyes of a giant beast, staring at the approaching humans wickedly.

“Doctor,” Fatty hid behind a tree, and his voice rose in pitch, “What are those two lanterns?”

Jiang Cheng knelt beside Fatty. He had his hand on the branches and looked at the Prop Centre through the gap. “Thank you, Fatty.”

Fatty was startled. He asked curiously, “Why are you thanking me?”

“Thank you for telling me those are two lanterns.” Jiang Cheng replied without looking at him. “Or else I wouldn’t have known.”

“It looks like something bad has once happened here.” Jiang Cheng announced firmly, “This is a Daoist talisman. They are stuck here to suppress the ghost.” Fatty had thought of that as well. He didn’t voice it because he was scared. The next second, Fatty tossed the paper away.

“Doctor,” On the way back, Fatty looked like he was about to hang onto Jiang Cheng, “This is so scary. Just how strong is the ghost that so many talismans are shoved under the door?”

Fatty’s heart was still racing. Based on existing clues, Fatty shared his thoughts, “Could Chen Yao have returned to be together with Su Yu because she didn’t have that chance to do that when she was alive due to Li Yanwei?

“She knocked on Su Yu’s door daily. Out of fear, Su Yu got these talismans, hid himself in the Prop Centre and refused to come out.”

Jiang Cheng frowned. “Then, why didn’t he leave this school? He’ll eventually be found if he stays here.” Jiang Cheng pressed, “Plus, Su Yu is just the manager of the Prop Centre. He is too low on the position of the school admin to be able to utilise talismans everywhere at this place. He must have gotten permission from the admin.”

Fatty frowned deeply. Then, his eyes flashed. He looked at Jiang Cheng, “Doctor, do you mean it was Li Yanwei who had allowed this?!”

By then, they had returned to the front gate. Before Jiang Cheng could answer, there was a strange sound coming from inside.

Fatty and Jiang Cheng held their breath. They hid behind a small wall. As the surroundings became quiet, the sound became clearer.

It sounded like a snake hissing. But, just as the two were about to lean closer to the gate to take a closer look, there was a click from the gate.
