Except for Feng Yuanlin, Captain Chen, Xiao Shan, and Wu Haoming were also alarmed by the bloodstained sand in front of Chi Shuyan.
Compared with Teacher Yang’s thoughts about the supernatural, Captain Chen and the others suspected that the paper which this young lady had burned just now contained some sort of ingredient which reacted chemically with the sand and turned it red. This thing probably wasn’t blood.
Captain Chen grabbed a bit of the red clump in front of Chi Shuyan for a look. The sand here was stickier and more moist compared with sandpits in other schools.
Captain Chen put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it. There was still a slight fishy smell, like the smell of blood and dirt.
Captain Chen wasn’t willing to believe this absurd thing, but when he smelled the stench of blood, his heart inexplicably turned cold.
At that moment, he couldn’t help but ask Chi Shuyan, “What the hell is going on? Miss Chi…”
Chi Shuyan interrupted Captain Chen and said, “Captain Chen, just call me by my name!”
“Okay, Shuyan, what did you burn just now?” When it came to official business, Captain Chen nodded and didn’t waste time.
On the side, Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming also followed Captain Chen’s gaze and stared at her curiously.
No one noticed at that moment how Feng Yuanlin’s face grew even more solemn.
On the side, Teacher Yang was probably scared out of her wits by this red color. Her face was deathly pale and she looked nervous and terrified. Her heart turned cold and she kept mumbling, “How can there be blood in the sandpit? How can there be blood?”
It had clearly been washed clean back then, and whatever was stained with blood had been shoveled away.
The more Teacher Yang thought about it, the stranger it was. She was scared witless.
Chi Shuyan also knew that ordinary people were very afraid of this kind of supernatural thing. Teacher Yang would have to lead the way later, so it wouldn’t be good to scare her witless. Chi Shuyan’s lips curved up slightly as she said, “Teacher Yang, this red isn’t blood, but a chemical reaction caused by something I burned just now. Don’t think too much!”
Only then did Teacher Yang’s face look better.
Captain Chen and the others also heaved sighs of relief. Right? How could there be so many supernatural things in this world?
They had really been given a fright when they saw the red on the dirt.
Chi Shuyan put down the dirt and said, “Teacher Yang, why don’t we go take a look at Class 9 now?”
Teacher Yang immediately nodded. “Okay!”
On the way to Class 9, Feng Yuanlin met Zhenbai’s wife’s gaze. Seeing her nod, Feng Yuanlin’s heart sank.
On the other side, Captain Chen and the other two were curious about how Meng Shuyi fell and hit her head. Teacher Yang hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, and she heard from the other students that the child seemed to have jumped into the sandpit during gym class. It seemed that she accidentally tripped and hit her head on the cement. It was a pretty big cut and bled a lot, and a lot of blood seeped into the sandpit. The bloody sand was dug up by the school’s security guards and replaced with a new batch of sand.
That was why when the red blood oozed out just now, Teacher Yang was so terrified.
The wound wasn’t too big, but who would have thought that the child would fall into a coma because of it?
“She tripped?” Captain Chen narrowed his eyes.
Teacher Yang immediately understood what Captain Chen was getting at. “At that time, the other students were very far away. It was impossible for anyone to deliberately trip Shuyi!”
Captain Chen said to Feng Yuanlin, “Director Feng, I think this was an accident. It wasn’t a big injury, but a head wound is always a problem!”
