Chapter 101 The Light in the Dark Night
The moment Lin Xi turned on the flashlight, all the parents gathered at the school gate turned around and looked at her. However, Lin Xi was already used to being stared at by ghosts, so she was no longer surprised.
She got off the car with a flashlight, told the driver to come back in half an hour, and stood in the crowd waiting for the children to finish school.
Among the parents, Lin Xi is the most dazzling one.

There were three reasons for dazzle. One was because Lin Xi was a living person; based on that fact alone, it was impossible for Lin Xi not to dazzle. The second reason was because of the flashlight in Lin Xi's hand. The flashlight beam was so bright that it made the ghost parents panic.
Someone even said, "Turn off the flashlight quickly! What if we attract those crazy people?"
Lin Xi had sharp ears and a quick mind, and she quickly realized that those irrational people were attracted by the light. No wonder so many parents gathered together, but no one was holding a flashlight.
That being said, it makes sense that the bus would be attacked by the white ghosts, as they are attracted to the beams. However, as long as the doors and windows of the bus are closed, they cannot enter. This is also the ability of these types of place-based ghost stories.
After going through these two or three copies, Lin Xi's brain has become much smarter.
However, she still didn't take the parents' request to "turn off the flashlight" seriously. She had full confidence in Shen Sangning; those white ghosts wouldn't be a match for her. Because the room was already packed with parents, Lin Xi didn't go in. Instead, she stayed at the very back of the line, flashing her flashlight and looking around bored.
However, not long after, white ghosts rushed in from a distance. They rushed out from the thick fog on the road and pounced directly at Lin Xi. Then, they were crushed into white balls by Shen Sang Ning and prepared to be eaten. However, Lin Xi's eyes widened and he quickly stopped Shen Sang Ning.
This is a white ball! What's going on? It's different from the black ball!
Lin Xi thought about the ghost saying that these guys were mad. Now that they were squashed into white balls, wouldn't eating them infect Shen Sangning and make her lose her mind as well? Lin Xi asked Shen Sangning with this question. Shen Sangning replied, "They're all food, there's no difference... Well, maybe the taste will be a little different."
Lin Xi felt relieved because she wouldn't let Shen Sangning get infected and lose her mind. She stopped trying to stop her. Shen Sangning opened her mouth and ate the white ball directly. Although she trusted Shen Sangning, Lin Xi was still a little worried. After Shen Sangning had taken a few bites, Lin Xi asked, "Wife, how are you? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Shen Sangning shook her head: "Sweet."
—Huh? White balls are actually sweet?
Could it be the taste of white chocolate balls?
Lin Xi's thoughts wandered at this moment. When she came to her senses, she asked Chen Sangning not to eat it yet. After several minutes, Chen Sangning did not show any signs of discomfort, so Lin Xi let Chen Sangning finish eating the white ball.
At this time, the students from the Central Primary School also came out, led by their teacher. There was a little noise coming from the front. Lin Xi shone the flashlight forward, but could not see anything. The main reason was that there were too many parents, layered inside and outside, and it was impossible to see what was happening inside.
Lin Xi jumped a few times. Although she was slightly taller than Chen Sang Ning, it was only slightly taller, still a normal female height, which was quite eye-catching in this situation. There were quite a few male ghost parents in front of her, and inevitably some of them were taller. Standing in front of her, they acted like a human wall, blocking Lin Xi's view.
In addition, they were quite far away, making it even more difficult for them to see the scene ahead.
After jumping a few times, he still couldn't see what was ahead, so Lin Xi sighed and gave up. Then Shen Sang Ning pulled on Lin Xi's sleeve, and Lin Xi turned around and asked, "Ning Ning, what's wrong?"
Shen Sangning puffed out his chest, patted his shoulders, and said arrogantly, "Wife, come here."
At this moment, Lin Xi actually didn't know what Shen Sangning meant, but she soon understood and became a little embarrassed: "Ningning, this is not good."
"It's okay, I can do it!"
Of course Lin Xi knew that Shen Sangning was okay with it, after all, Shen Sangning could now give her a one-handed princess hug, but it was more or less embarrassing to ride on Shen Sangning's shoulders in front of so many ghosts. But Shen Sangning's proud look made Lin Xi unable to refuse Shen Sangning.
Finally, after Shen Sangning squatted down, Lin Xi still rode on Shen Sangning's shoulders with a hint of excitement and shyness.
The moment Lin Xi sat down, Chen Sang Ning stood up easily and asked Lin Xi: "Wife, can you see?" Lin Xi took the flashlight and shone it forward. Now she had a feeling of "standing on the top of the mountain, overlooking all the mountains".
"I can see it. I can see it quite clearly."
Lin Xi's flashlight even landed directly on the bald head teacher who was leading the children out in front. The light illuminated the teacher's bald head, making it look like a glittering boiled egg. The bald head teacher was clearly irritated by the light. He glared and began to search for the source of the light, and then he saw...
The light source was extremely high, higher than all the parents present, and it was at the very back. He couldn't see who was holding the flashlight, because Lin Xi was not only behind the light source, but also very tall.
Lin Xi could clearly see the bald head teacher's expression, as he was right in the light. The moment he saw his expression change with shock, Lin Xi realized that this class might be left without a head teacher. The first to come out were the first graders, which was a pity for those children.
Just as Lin Xi had expected, the bald head teacher's expression suddenly changed, and he sprinted towards Lin Xi. Because there were so many parents, all crowded in front, his speed slowed considerably. But everyone saw his expression and knew his rules had been triggered. No one wanted to get caught up in someone else's fight so late at night, so they all made way, allowing the bald head teacher to proudly walk over to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi's flashlight was like a searchlight, shining in front of the bald head teacher, lighting the way forward for him. This made the bald head teacher's anger rise steadily, his whole face turned red, and he made a sound like a beast: "Who! Who is it! Why do you look down on the bald guy! What's wrong with the bald guy! Did he eat your rice?!"
He roared as he approached, and then turned into Shen Sangning's midnight snack tonight.
When the incident with the bald head teacher came to an end, the students in his class didn't take it seriously at all. They went out by themselves, found their parents, and left, waiting for the bus at the bus platform.
Fortunately, there were not many bald class teachers in the Central Primary School, and there was only this one, so there was no scene of the bald class teacher yelling and rushing towards Lin Xi. It was just that everyone was very uncomfortable with the sudden beam of light, and they would subconsciously squint their eyes. Soon, they arrived at Lin Xi's class. Xian Zhufu
Their class teacher was a female teacher. She also frowned and hid from the light for a while. It was not until she saw the person holding the flashlight suddenly become shorter and then walked towards her that she realized something was wrong. When she looked closely, it turned out to be Lin Lin's parents!
The head teacher pushed Lin Lin out and walked inside.
Lin Xi still wanted to see if her little group of three had made any new discoveries that evening, so she didn't leave immediately. A small number of parents had left, so the crowd had thinned out considerably, allowing Lin Xi to move to the front. With fewer people around, the flower bed had also become vacant.
This flower bed had become Lin Xi's happy home. Whenever she waited for Lin Lin at the school gate, she would sit there for a while. Seeing that no one was there, Lin Xi pulled Shen Sang Ning over and sat down. Lin Lin, carrying her small schoolbag, followed behind them and also went over to sit down.
After a while, when all the students had left, Lin Xi still hadn't seen the trio approach her. She was a little surprised, but she didn't think they were completely wiped out. Just when she'd sent the children away, she'd seen Aaron Jones and Wei Ziqi, both clearly alive. There must be a reason the trio hadn't come out.
Nighttime is dangerous for ghosts, let alone the anchors.
Lin Xi waited for a while, and when she was sure that the trio would not come, she took Shen Sang Ning and Lin Lin away. They were silent along the way, and after returning home, Lin Xi asked Lin Lin if she was hungry. Lin Lin was stunned for a moment, then shook her head. She was a ghost, and she would not feel full no matter how much she ate, but if she was hungry, she was not a starving ghost, and she would not feel particularly hungry.
But after shaking her head, she paused and nodded: "A little bit."
Lin Xi said "Oh," and told her to sit in the living room for a while. Then she went into the kitchen and cooked three bowls of noodles, each topped with a poached egg, two green vegetables, and a few scallions. She certainly wouldn't cook just for Lin Lin; she couldn't treat her wife badly. Chen Sang Ning never had enough to eat, so how could she not give her something to eat?
-_-!
Since I have already finished two bowls, I might as well add another bowl and eat some soup noodles to warm my stomach.
The family of three sat at the dining table. Lin Lin looked at the noodles in her bowl and suddenly said, "The principal came during evening study today. He was on patrol."
Lin Xi picked up her chopsticks and was about to slurp the noodles when she heard Lin Lin's words. She felt like she was in a dilemma: whether to slurp or not. After a moment's thought, Lin Xi put down her chopsticks and asked Lin Lin, "What's going on?" Shen Sangning ignored all that. Her eyes lit up at the sight of the noodles before her, and she picked them up and started eating.
Lin Lin took the chopsticks and stirred the noodles before saying, "He is here to patrol and see who is not studying hard. If he catches you, you will be taken outside to stand as a punishment. If you are caught more than three times, you will never be allowed to return to the class again."
The principal seemed to be concerned about learning. Wei Ziqi had said before that the reason for the evening self-study was to improve grades. She suddenly thought of something and asked Lin Lin, "When did the evening self-study begin?"
Lin Lin was just taking her first bite of noodles at this moment. After she had swallowed the noodles, she answered Lin Xi, "About ten or twenty years ago."
——This completely matches the time of Zhu Zhu’s death.
