Chapter 108: School Directors, You Two Are Really Crazy
I don’t know what’s wrong with Ye Yangjia recently. When he gives advice to his guilty friends, he always suggests that they solve the problem by kowtow or kneel down.
Who had trained him to be like this? Could it be that the Ye family had specially set up a men's ethics training class for him in order to ensure a stable marriage?
Ye Yangjia, that bastard, secretly attended the Men's Morality Class without even bringing his buddy along. A good young man of the new era, just a stone's throw away from love, desperately needs to learn a Men's Morality course that can effectively prevent conflicts between lovers.
Shi Chan lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling, and couldn't help sighing.
Lin Zhuyue, ah, Lin Zhuyue.
When will you realize that you are different in my heart? I may let my cat sleep with my friends, but I will never share my cabinet of dolls and teacups with them, nor will I share my parents' love, nor will I place roses where you can see them accidentally.
In the next room, Lin Zhuyue was not resting either.
She was thinking about the marriage proposed by Shi Chan.
As long as she agreed to the marriage, she could continue to enjoy everything she didn't want to lose, and even get more.
But...what if Shican was just joking?
Besides, is a loveless marriage a paradise or a quagmire? If an arranged marriage were to happen, could she accept the risk of Shichan suddenly finding true love after the marriage? How embarrassing would that be?
Lin Zhuyue covered his eyes and gradually fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, she was awakened by a knock on the door.
Lin Zhuyue asked, "Who is it?"
"I." Shi Chan's voice came from outside the door. "It's time for dinner. Let's go eat. We both had breakfast and lunch together, and I'm already very hungry."
Lin Zhuyue touched his stomach and realized belatedly that his stomach was empty and it was time to eat.
She got out of bed and ran to open the door.
"I need to comb my hair. Come in and sit down first."
Lin Zhuyue left the door open for Shi Can and went back to look for her hair tie, but she couldn't find it. She had no choice but to take out a shark clip from her handbag and hurried into the bathroom to tidy up her frizzy hair.
Shi Can sat down on the bed and immediately saw the hair tie that Lin Zhuyue hadn't found. He picked it up and wanted to go to the bathroom to give it to Lin Zhuyue, but Shi Can thought for a moment and slipped the hair tie into his pocket without anyone noticing.
Hair bands are not valuable things, but Lin Zhuyue bought six of them for 2.99 yuan.
But Shican just wanted it.
He was like a puppy, treating the little bits and pieces related to his master as treasures, taking them away and hiding them under the cabinet.
It didn't take long for Lin Zhuyue to take care of herself.
The two of them went out together and went to the buffet area on the first floor of the hotel.
The buffet dinner at this four-star hotel costs 499 per person, but if you are a guest staying at the hotel, it only costs 299. The school has contacted the hotel in advance, and all expenses for Shi Can and Lin Zhuyue after their stay will be covered by the school.
Considering the price, the buffet dinner was not particularly good, but it was decent.
Halfway through the meal, the manager came over with a bottle of champagne and wanted to open it for Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can. Because he had to go to the dormitory to check on the situation and work, and he had to keep his mind completely clear when working, Shi Can directly refused the bottle of champagne.
After the manager left, Lin Zhuyue whispered:
"I think the principal and your family are more than just acquaintances."
Shi Can suppressed his laughter and asked:
"So what do you think the relationship is like?"
Lin Zhuyue made sure no one nearby could hear before speaking:
"The principal is trying to curry favor with you. Does he owe your family money?"
“My grandfather invested 100 million yuan when the school was built.”
Shi Can lowered his voice and said,
"How much was one hundred million back then? Two years ago, they wanted to build a new campus, and my dad poured another 1.2 billion into it."
Lin Zhuyue: "..."
Excuse me, it turns out that you are the young master of the school director’s family.
While Lin Zhuyue wasn't paying attention, Shi Can moved the flying fish roe baguette from his plate to Lin Zhuyue's. He counted on his fingers and said seriously:
"My family has also invested in other schools, more in private schools and less in public schools. In total, we've invested in more than 50 schools."
Lin Zhuyue asked, "Why invest in so many schools? It doesn't seem like your family is doing charity?"
People who do charity usually invest money in rural schools, but Shican's family seems to invest in famous schools.
Lin Zhuyue put the flying fish roe baguette back into Shican's plate.
“It’s to make it easier to get admission.”
Shi Chan explained,
"Now is an era of declining spiritual energy. Many children whose ancestors were spiritual masters no longer possess the qualifications to become spiritual masters. Some of them left Tiancheng from the beginning, but many more found their true selves during their spiritual master education. Some will continue their studies with the goal of joining the logistics department, while others choose to completely abandon metaphysics, leave the Spirit Master Academy, leave Tiancheng, enter ordinary schools, and become ordinary people."
"My family has invested so much in schools just to help these people gain admission."
Lin Zhuyue opened his eyes wide:
"Is the Shi family actually doing something like this?"
Shi Chan nodded seriously and said:
"The Shi family seems very impressive and powerful. But behind the scenes, they have done many things, such as providing financial support to the Spiritual Master's Mansion. These things have made the Shi family's foundation deep and unshakable."
"I understand."
Lin Zhuyue concluded with deep conviction,
"Money is the father."
"Hmm...that's not wrong..."
Shi Can pushed the flying fish roe baguette to Lin Zhuyue again and said,
"Lin Zhuyue, I'll give you money and I won't be your father. I just ask you to eat this thing, okay?"
"Why are you taking it if you're not going to eat it?"
Lin Zhuyue took the flying fish roe baguette and said,
"It's such a big piece, and I'm almost full after eating it. This is a big taboo when eating at a buffet."
None of them mentioned the marriage, they finished their dinner with some fun and the atmosphere between them returned to normal.
The high school department of the Foreign Language School finishes school at 9:20. The school gives the boarding students an hour to wash up before going to bed, and the lights are turned off at 10:20.
Most of the students living in Bowie's dormitory had packed their luggage before ten o'clock and came to the hotel to check in accompanied by their life teachers.
At 10:20, Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can met up with their life teacher at the hotel. They were going to the girls' dormitory to catch ghosts, and their life teacher was on duty at the dormitory tonight, so they left together.
Lin Zhuyue asked, "Has this happened in the dormitory before?"
"This dormitory building wasn't built long ago, but it's been in use for four years, and we've never had this kind of problem before."
The life teacher looked very distressed and said,
"Could it be that the former students were careless and didn't notice? High school students are very sensitive to strange noises that disturb their sleep at night. If they encounter one, there's no way they won't tell the teacher."
"If there wasn't this kind of strange movement before and it just appeared recently, it's probably not an earthbound spirit."
Shi Can pondered,
"Perhaps they were just passing through and stayed in the girls' dormitory for some reason. In such cases, the reason is usually the dormitory itself or the undead itself. We'll determine the reason for their stay once we find the undead."
The life teacher asked worriedly:
"...Will this kind of thing happen again? If it happens again, what should we do?"
"Actually, the probability of encountering such an incident isn't very high. On the contrary, the probability of a student passing away in the dormitory and becoming a groundbound spirit, causing disturbances in the dormitory, is higher."
Lin Zhuyue said to the life teacher,
"In both cases, the ghosts remain in the dormitories and aren't targeting any particular individual. As long as the students move out, they won't be harassed any further. It's like staying in a questionable hotel or renting a questionable apartment. If you move out immediately, you won't be affected any further."
As the three of them chatted, they arrived at the dormitory building for the first-year high school girls.
Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can explained to the life teacher that dealing with the dead was dangerous and that they couldn't take her up with them. After the explanation, they took the key and walked towards the elevator.
Lin Zhuyue entered the elevator, pressed the button for the fourth floor, and asked Shi Can:
"Are you nervous about going into the girls' dormitory?"
"I've even been to a girls' school and girls' restroom before."
Shi Can, holding a tool bag in his left hand and a compass in his right hand, introduced his "rich" mission experience to Lin Zhuyue with an expressionless face.
"Ye Yangjia and I were even arranged by the victim to stay at the SQ Hotel. We came back from a midnight snack and ran into a ladybug catching scene. We, no, it was mainly because I was too good-looking that the uncle mistook me for a duck. Because we wanted to watch the fun, neither of us identified ourselves. We just squatted against the wall with the naked men and women, heads in arms, for over an hour."
Lin Zhuyue curled the corner of his mouth:
"...You two are really crazy."
Shi Can nodded: "Old Fu said so too."
The elevator doors opened on the fourth floor.
Lin Zhuyue took out the key and opened the door of the 4-1 dormitory while saying:
"Shican, I feel like it's very clean in there, there are no dead souls at all."
"I also feel it's very clean. Although there's a bit of yin energy, it's just normal yin energy."
Shi Can looked down at the compass and said,
"There's no movement on the compass at the moment."
Lin Zhuyue pushed open the door and walked in.
She pulled her compass from her tool kit and walked around the dormitory. There were faint psychic reactions on the sink and the door of the small dormitory, but this was lighter than at noon, clearly from before noon.
Lin Zhuyue has already come to a conclusion: "The deceased's soul is not here."
Shi Can took out his phone and looked at it, then said:
"Maybe it's not time yet, wait a little longer."
Just then, Lin Zhuyue's cell phone rang.
"It's Xiao Yi's call, let me pick it up."
Shi Chan made a gesture of please go ahead.
As soon as Lin Zhuyue answered the phone, she heard the sound of "dong dong dong" and Xiao Yi's embarrassed voice:
"Sister, Song Zhen and I are staying in a hotel right now. There was a knock on our door. We just asked who was outside..."
Lin Zhuyue heard a strange voice from the receiver, a combination of hoarseness and sharpness.
"It's me."
Shi Chan made a decisive judgment:
"Tell them not to open the door no matter what. We're going over there right now."
