Chapter 839

Chen Ge had his own idea . Using force to stop force was the simplest answer, but to gain the school’s approval and to get accepted all the despairing children, using brute force alone was not enough .

It might not work, but there’s no harm in trying .

After leaving the classroom, Chen Ge stood at the corridor holding two bags . Two students were hurrying to class, and he was the only one taking his sweet time to take in the scenery .

“Hi, can you tell me where the nurse’s office is?”

The students were very unfriendly . Chen Ge asked several students before finally someone was willing to show him the way .

“You’re the new student from the fourth class, right? When I was passing the teacher’s lounge earlier, I hear the teachers and discipline teacher talking about you . They sounded like they were going to punish you . ” The girl who led the way looked like a high school student . She had a ponytail and dressed casually .

“They wish to punish me?”

“Sounds like it’s because you have been ignoring the school rules and got into fights in class . ” When the girl said that, she stole a curious look at Chen Ge . “Is that true?”

“If I say it’s true, will you be afraid?” Chen Ge maintained the smile on his face . The teachers had their own way of dealing with things; he understood that but did not approve .

“I won’t, I think you did a great job . Those people always mix with the gangsters outside school . It’s about time someone came to teach them a lesson!” The girl appeared to have been bullied before . She chatted for a long time before silently walking closer to Chen Ge . “I hope nothing will happen to you . “

“This is the first time we’ve met, right?” Chen Ge felt the girl was acting strangely, like she was attempting to get in his good books . “Do you have something else to tell me?”

A flash of panic crossed her eyes, but she soon returned to normal . “Actually, I don’t have many friends . In my class, they all laugh at me and like to prank me, so I wish to be your friend . If they bully me again, at least I will have someone else to talk to . “

The girl was not good at lying . When she said the later words, her eyes subconsciously wandered to other places; deep inside her eyes were a thick pool of venom . That resentment was unrelated to Chen Ge . She probably wanted to find someone to help her take revenge on those who had once bullied her .

“I’m sorry, but I’m used to being alone . ” Chen Ge knew that the girl did not really want him as a friend . She merely wanted to find someone to protect her .

“It’s fine then . ” The disappointment was clear in the girl’s eyes, but she still kept her promise and took Chen Ge to the nurse’s office .

“This is it . I’m going back to class . ” The girl retraced her steps . After taking few steps, she suddenly turned around to look at Chen Ge . “Forgot to mention, my name is Yin Hong, I’ll talk to you later . “

The girl forced a smile and ran away in a jog .

Even though it’s a fake smile, she can make it look so sweet . This girl would be quite suitable to work on the haunted house’s front desk .

As he opened the door to the nurse’s office, the curtains flickered . Blood red fog surrounded his body, and it was a red blur inside the room; he could not see anything .

“Is anyone in?”

The nurse’s office was quite large and was made up of four connecting rooms . The outermost room was the consultation room; it was the smallest, with two sets of tables and chairs and two shelves for the amenities .

The nurse’s office feels like a private clinic . Just how many students come here every day?

The blood red wall had thin vessels that crawled on it like worms . A large white coat hung in the corner, but no doctor was to be seen . Chen Ge walked to the table . A document was placed on the table, and it recorded some students’ sicknesses and the corresponding treatments given by the doctor .

Looking through it, Chen Ge found Yan Fei’s name on the third last page . Out of Chen Ge’s expectation, the doctor merely gave Yan Fei some medicine to stop the bleeding and did not provide any psychological counselling . Just based on this note alone, one would not notice the issue’s severity . Those who did not know the truth might think that Yan Fei had just accidentally scratched himself .

Nothing should be assessed from just the surface . According to the note, every student that came here had nothing serious, but they might have been dropped in despair already .

This document was not thick, but each page had the patient’s picture .

To be bullied until they needed a trip to the nurse’s office, this was some serious bullying . Perhaps I can find other children from this note .

The School of the Afterlife was unique; it combined various memories, and the number of lingering spirits and Specters were enormous . It was hard to find the few children who had the qualification to become door-pushers, but this document provided a shortcut for Chen Ge .

Since Yan Fei’s name is here, the other students with the qualification might have their names here as well .

Walking past the consultation room, Chen Ge entered the second room . There were several beds . Other than the slightly bigger space, it was no different from the previous room .

“Sorry, I’m looking for someone . ” Chen Ge stood at the door, and his pupils throbbed as a bad feeling rose in his heart . There was no answer, like the sickroom was unoccupied . “This is strange . “

Reaching his hands into the pocket, Chen Ge took out a nail and hid it in his palm . He could hear the static coming from the tape, and then he mustered the courage to step into the room . He carefully walked to the third room . There were similarly beds in the room, but unlike the second room, the beds were sequestered from each other by white curtains . Probably to protect each patient’s privacy, one could not tell who was occupying the bed from outside .

This place is quite dangerous .

After passing many Trial Missions, Chen Ge’s sense of danger was sharpened . He moved with his back to the wall as he nudged his foot forward . Pulling open the curtain that was closest to him, a thick stench drifted out . A black, sticky pool was left in the middle of the white sheets . It looked like blood .

The stench is heavy . This bed was probably recently occupied .

After a brief observation, Chen Ge noticed that the pillow was puffy like it was hiding something . He was about to take the pillow when he felt a chill from behind his neck like something was reminding him to look back . Turning around, Chen Ge saw a doctor in a white coat standing not far away from him . The man was plump, and his coat was bursting at the seams . He was well enveloped by his uniform that contained a coat, mask, and hat . Only his thin neck was exposed .

The body is so large, but the neck is so thin . Is it possible that the doctor is wearing several layers of clothes?

Chen Ge stared at the doctor’s collar, and he caught glimpse of redness there .

The uniform is pure white, but the clothes inside are dark red . Just what kind of doctor is this?
