Zhu Bocheng’s right eyelid twitched as he looked at the bodies being brought out one after another. His expression was no longer frivolous and was instead very solemn. He had questioned Yingbo’s teacher just now. When the teacher had just turned pale and stammered in reply, he couldn’t be bothered to ask anymore. Now, he was really curious about what happened in this school.
Zhou Yingbo was still terrified when he recalled encountering ghosts in school tonight. It had upended his worldview. If he hadn’t been a little braver, he would have probably collapsed like the other students when he saw Principal Wang being dragged into a crack in the wall and dying tragically.
But no matter how brave he was, without the talismans which Wang Daoping had given him as well as the boy’s help, he would probably have been dragged into a crack in the wall and died without an intact corpse. Thinking this, Zhou Yingbo’s lips turned pale and he shook violently. After a while, Zhou Yingbo swallowed his saliva and said weakly to Zhu Bocheng, “Brother, our… our school… was haunted! Fortunately, there was… an especially powerful Celestial Master.”
At this point, Zhou Yingbo was very excited and fired up at the thought of how that Celestial Master had dealt with those two evil spirits. Before he could finish speaking, and just as Zhu Bocheng was about to explode, Chi Shuyan’s familiar voice rang out. “Brother Zhu! You’re here, too?”
“Cousin, you’re here, too?” Zhu Bocheng looked up and saw Sister Shuyan coming over, and was a bit stupefied. Why was she here as well? He thought of what his cousin had said about the school being haunted. Wait, was there really something wrong with this No. 5 Junior High?
Zhu Bocheng didn’t notice that his cousin’s eyes were as bright as light bulbs when Sister Shuyan came over, especially after he said the word “cousin.” Zhou Yingbo’s eyes simply burned, and he looked very excited.
He was so excited that Zhou Yingbo couldn’t help tugging at his cousin’s clothes excitedly. His sparkling eyes never left Chi Shuyan. His handsome little face was very nervous, but he didn’t dare make a sound.
Zhu Bocheng’s attention was all on Chi Shuyan at that moment, and he didn’t notice his cousin’s excitement and nervousness at all. He just felt that his cousin was too noisy tonight as he kept tugging at his clothes.
He wanted to know more about this school. After all, his cousin was studying here. If it was serious, he would have to discuss transferring schools with his aunt and uncle. Besides, he also wanted to have a good chat with Sister Shuyan, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time. He said, “Cousin, there’s a quiet place nearby. Shall we go and have a seat?”
“Okay! But let me call Brother Feng first!” She also guessed that Brother Zhu probably had questions.
Feng Yuanlin came over a while later. He and Zhu Bocheng were naturally old acquaintances. Zhu Bocheng wasn’t surprised that Feng Yuanlin was here. After all, he also knew that this kid had recently been transferred to the capital branch, and this area was under his jurisdiction.
Zhu Bocheng got straight to the point and asked, “Old Feng, this school isn’t really haunted, is it? Has it been resolved? Is it alright for my cousin to study here in the future?”
Feng Yuanlin was about to reply, when his subordinate came over to look for him.
Seeing that Brother Feng didn’t have time to spare, Chi Shuyan said, “Brother Feng, go ahead. I’ll get Brother Zhu to send me back later. Don’t worry!”
Feng Yuanlin was indeed busy. He could relax, leaving Zhenbai’s wife in Zhu Bocheng’s care. Before he left, Feng Yuanlin thanked Chi Shuyan and said that he would treat her to a meal in a few days.
Chi Shuyan curled her lip. “Okay, Brother Feng, I’ll remember this meal!”
Zhu Bocheng found it quite strange. “Zhenbai’s wife, you’re quite familiar with Old Feng. Isn’t Zhenbai jealous? It’s so late and he hasn’t called you to go back?”
