After some inspection, Fujiwara Yu was sure that these people were not lying, because they were all contacted by the same landline phone, so they were invited here by the same person, and that person was most likely the mastermind hiding somewhere.
Now only Sakuraju Ruriko was contacted by the disappeared Makabe Makoto, but this does not rule out her suspicion. It is possible that this is a self-directed drama, and she took the initiative to find herself in order to get rid of suspicion.
Fujiwara Yuu stared at the computer screen in silence. He thought of the calls received by the other people and was about to ask when he heard footsteps at the door. Before he could see anyone, he heard an extremely loud voice:
"Hey, hey, hey! Who on earth is running here without permission so late at night? Could you please not add to our guards' workload?"
The man who appeared at the doorway, holding a flashlight, had gray hair and looked no more than fifty years old. He looked at everyone in the classroom with displeasure, but when his eyes swept over Takagi Sosuke, he was stunned.
He quickly stepped forward and took a closer look. His attitude improved a little as he asked:
"Huh? Are you Officer Takashi who was at the school this morning? Why are you bringing students here so late at night?"
"I'm sorry, we came here because we received a call from a student. There were also strange words written on the computer over there, and now the student who called has disappeared, so we wanted to investigate in this old teaching building." Fujiwara Yu explained politely, not feeling dissatisfied with the other party's previous yelling.
The gray-haired guard was startled when he heard this. He walked over to the computer screen and saw the content on it. His expression turned a little ugly. He turned around and asked:
"This signature...could there really be a curse?"
"Mr. Guard, there are no curses in this world. If you're afraid, I can find a student to lead the way for me."
The gray-haired guard waved his hands quickly and introduced himself with a wry smile:
"No, I'm not afraid. Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself to the officer. I'm Tachibana Ryozo, and I work as a security guard at Teitan High School. My main responsibility is patrolling, so I'm very familiar with every corner of the school."

Fujiwara Yu hesitated for a while, and finally took the other students to the teaching building that was in use. There was a guard room there, which was a good place for them to rest.
Before leaving, he did not forget to give Sakurashu Ruriko his contact information so that in case he received any strange calls again, she could contact him as soon as possible.
After giving a flashlight to Takashi Sosuke, Tachibana Ryozo said:
"Officer Ying Si, where are you going?"
"Is there a closed biology lab? I plan to go over there and take a look." Fujiwara Yu looked at his watch and saw the time. It would be 10:00 PM in two minutes. He was still concerned about the call that other students received.
What exactly does the death ritual mean? Is it just a pure prank... or a premonition of murder?
After a moment's thought, Tachibana Ryozo knew where Takashi Sosuke was going. He smiled and said:
"The biology room that's closed? Oh, you mean the abandoned biology classroom, right? That classroom is on the second floor of the old teaching building. Come with me."
"Yes, thank you for your help." Fujiwara Yu followed Tachibana Ryozo with a flashlight. He remembered the clues he found during the day's investigation and asked, "Mr. Tachibana, I remember that the old teaching building will be demolished next month, right?"
"That's true, but for some reason, there are still people who oppose the demolition. You saw that threatening letter, Officer Ying Si, right? It clearly indicates opposition to the demolition. I don't know what that person is thinking."
"Has anyone publicly objected?"
Tachibana Ryozo thought for a moment and shook his head. He smiled and said:
"No, but there are one or two teachers who are quite worried about what might happen to the school. They think the threatening letter is true and that bad things will happen if it is demolished. Now it seems that they may have been deceived."
Fujiwara Yu nodded thoughtfully. He was about to catch up when he noticed a light coming from the old teaching building across the street. Puzzled, he stopped and asked:
"Mr. Tachibana, is anyone still using the classroom on the second floor across the street?"
"Huh?" Tachibana Ryozo narrowed his eyes as he looked at the window opposite where the light was coming from. He scratched his head and asked in confusion, "That's really weird! I just patrolled the second floor and I clearly turned off all the lights in the corridor. And the room at the end is the 'biology room with no door', so there's no way light can come out of there!"
A biology room with no door?
Fujiwara Yu immediately supported himself on the window sill with his hands, trying to see clearly what was happening in the classroom opposite, but he saw a shocking scene - the person hanging on the ceiling was Makoto Makabe who had disappeared for a long time!
Just when he was about to rush directly to the old teaching building, a creature wearing a black cloak moved in front of the corpse. As if sensing someone was paying attention to him, the creature slowly turned around.
The long, unkempt silver-gray hair, like straw, the terrifying dark red face, the wide-open eyes, as if staring into the abyss... This is not a human appearance. Is it a mask?
No, now is not the time to think about that.
Fujiwara Yuu rushed downstairs, running all the way to the end of the second floor of the old teaching building. When he turned the doorknob hard, he found that the door was locked. He looked at Tachibana Ryozo who was following him breathlessly and shouted:
"Hurry up and take out the key and open the door!"
"Huh... But... This biology room cannot be opened at all. There is no key at all!" Tachibana Ryozo put his hands on his knees and gasped for breath. He hadn't exercised for a long time and he was really out of breath after running for such a long time.
Without a key, how did the murderer open the door? Isn't this the second floor?
Although Fujiwara Yu had doubts in his heart, he could no longer care about so much. He simply raised his foot and kicked the door. The old wooden door fell to the ground, stirring up the old dust. If he had not mobilized the power of wind to protect his mouth and nose, he would probably have coughed like Tachibana Ryozo behind him.
He looked up at the ceiling, only to find that the entire biology classroom was empty. Whether it was the masked man in a black cloak or Makoto Makabe hanging on the ceiling... they had all disappeared without a trace.
"How is that possible!"
"No one?! I saw it with my own eyes, how could there be no one here?!" Tachibana Ryozo, who had finally recovered, said in disbelief. He rubbed his eyes hard, telling himself that he was not dreaming.
Da da da.
There were hurried footsteps outside the house. Fujiwara Yu turned back cautiously and said in surprise when he saw the girl in front of him:
"Why are you here?"
