Ring ring—
The school bell rang, and the students in the already nearly empty classroom returned to their seats, instantly falling silent.
A middle-aged man wearing a black casual suit jacket, carrying a book, and wearing glasses walked in from outside.
Luo Zhen is the homeroom teacher of Class 6, Grade 12, and teaches mathematics.
"In this section, we'll cover a few challenging problems, and then we'll use the remaining time for review."
He began lecturing on the platform. Below, Su Deng opened his book, turned his head to look at his deskmate, pondered for a moment, tore off a piece of paper, wrote a note, and handed it to him discreetly.
My deskmate is a boy named Zhang Hao.
During class, Su Deng was so focused that she almost wanted to bury herself in the textbook. Even after class, she rarely spoke to others. She would only occasionally help answer questions from a few girls, such as Hu Xiaojing.
Now, they're actually passing notes in class?
Zhang Hao glanced at her and opened the note in front of him.
Do you know any strange tales about Aoyama Middle School?
Zhang Hao looked at her with an even stranger expression.
[404: Warning, if your identity is discovered or suspected, your health will decrease and you will be penalized.]
The rule that Su Deng cannot die, but must die if she fails, applies to her.
The system changed the rules for her; if she fails, those around her will die, and she will suffer a punishment worse than death.
Su Deng wrote another note and handed it over.
[I heard someone talking about it after school yesterday, and I'm a little curious.]
Zhang Hao paused for a moment. Although he found it strange, he didn't think much of it. He glanced at the teacher on the stage and then replied to her.
[Tell me about question 2 of section 8 on yesterday's test, and I'll tell you.]
Su Deng: "..."
I never realized before that these classmates were so inquisitive.
[good]
Su Deng originally planned to explain the problem to him first and then tell him the ghost story after class.
But as soon as the bell rang, Luo Zhen called out to her below, "Su Deng, come to my office in a bit."
The next class was evening self-study.
Su Deng frowned slightly, but wasn't in a hurry.
After explaining the problem to Zhang Hao in detail, Zhang Hao told her about some rather unusual rumors circulating in the school.
Rumor 1:
Two years ago, a boy got the top score in the college entrance examination, but his classmates accused him of cheating. The teacher didn't believe him either. To prove his innocence, he jumped off the second teaching building. After that, the second teaching building was always filled with eerie winds at night, and during exams, many students' test papers would have inexplicable marks.
Rumor has it that the boy was harboring too much resentment and was causing trouble here.
Rumor 2:
Three years ago, a fire in the library killed several students. After the library was rebuilt, strange things started happening inside.
For example, while a student is reading, the book inexplicably catches fire.
For example, when some students search for a long time but can't find the book they want, the book will suddenly fall from the sky and land in front of them.
It is said that the wronged souls who were burned to death are playing pranks or helping students inside, or perhaps they are looking for a substitute to be reincarnated.
Rumor 3:
Five or six years ago, a girl wearing a red dress hanged herself in her dormitory. The autopsy revealed that she was seven months pregnant and the fetus was already formed.
After that, the girls' dormitory was often filled with the sounds of a baby crying and a woman soothing her at night, which was eerie and sinister. The school hired someone to perform a ritual to seal off that dormitory, but it didn't work. Even after the girls' dormitory was rebuilt, the crying continued.
It's said that the woman in red committed suicide because she harbored the most resentment, and since she hanged herself, the mother and son were trapped in that place unable to reincarnate. It's also possible that she didn't want to reincarnate. What's less frightening is that no other students were killed by her.
Rumor 4:
There was once a male student who was bullied and died in the men's restroom near the science building. He died, but the bullies got away with it. However, later, the students who bullied him all died in that same men's restroom.
The toilets over there were squat toilets, and the students who died were all drowned by having their faces buried in the water in the squat toilets.
It is said that the boy died unjustly and became a vengeful ghost, seeking revenge.
This has led to the toilets there falling into disrepair, and now no one dares to go there anymore.
But when students pass by at night, they can occasionally hear crying coming from inside.
Rumor 5:
One of the dormitory rules at Qingshan Middle School is that the lights must be turned off at 10:30 p.m. and no one should go out after 11 p.m., no matter what noise they hear. In particular, no one should look in the mirror or comb their hair in front of the mirror at midnight.
One student, refusing to believe in superstitions, deliberately got up at midnight to look in the mirror and comb his hair; the next day, he went insane.
Judging from her incoherent words, she must have seen something terrifying in the mirror and gone insane from fright.
Some students also said that when they were woken up in the middle of the night by the urge to urinate, they saw many ghosts outside, which turned into streaks of light and shot into the sky at five o'clock in the morning...
Rumor 6: Qingshan Middle School was formerly a mental hospital, where an explosion occurred and many people died...
Su Deng, after listening to everything, was speechless.
This is supposed to be called Qingshan Middle School? It should just be called Ghost Story Middle School!
Moreover, because she was working part-time and didn't live in the school dormitory, she had only heard about the library incident among all these things.
[404: Some ghost stories are true, some are false; monsters lurk among them. Players need to verify each one carefully. Please proceed with caution.]
[404: The player name hiding time expires in five minutes. Please trigger a quest or monster to extend the time as soon as possible.]
There are still 30 minutes left before evening self-study.
Su Deng planned to skip class, so she went to Teacher Luo's office first.
Luo Zhenren is middle-aged but still looks good. The students he has taught are all excellent. He is selected as an outstanding teacher every year, and all teachers, students and parents have a very good opinion of him.
