Volume 1 Campus Horror Chapter 0012 Suspicion
After leaving school, Xiao Mo did not dare to go back to the haunted building. He had no choice but to find a small hotel nearby to stay for the night. In other words, he would have to spend the next period of time in this way.
Lying in bed, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with Xu Lili's miserable death. Fortunately, there was an old computer in the room, which could be used to divert his attention at this time.
After turning on the computer, Xiao Mo stared at the screen blankly, not knowing what to do for a moment. After being stunned for a while, he thought of searching for this incident.
The fact that the incident happened two years ago and the list of the dead were all said by Chen Qing, and he did not see it with his own eyes. As the saying goes, hearing is not believing, and seeing is believing. If he does not see it with his own eyes, he will always have doubts in his heart.
"Huh?"
Looking at the reports about this incident , Xiao Mo couldn't help but let out a sigh. The content he searched for was actually different from what Chen Qing said.
"Chen Qing said that this incident happened two years ago, but it says it happened five years ago. And the content on the death list doesn't match what Chen Qing said."
Xiao Mo checked carefully and found that there was indeed a list of the dead in the report, but there were only fifteen names on the list. Not only was his name not on it, but even the names of Chang Lengfeng and the other four were not on it.
"Their names are not on the list either, but why do they say that only my name is not on the list? Why did they lie to me about this? Could it be that they were interfered with by that kind of power, so they can see it but I can't?"
Xiao Mo frowned and continued reading, and soon he made a new discovery.
"The order of death, location of death, time of death, and manner of death on the list are exactly the same as what Chen Qing said. Zhang Youshan was the first to die, followed by instructor Sun Yanjun... and Xu Lili was the eighth to die. Everything that has happened so far is consistent with this list. If there is no mistake, then the person who will die tomorrow is Ji Ruhai."
After a detailed search, Xiao Mo discovered that except for the time when the incident occurred and the number of people on the list which was different from what Chen Qing said, there were no contradictions in other places and they were all the same.
This made him even more confused. What was the point of concealing the actual time of the incident and the actual number of people on the death list? In his opinion, this information was not absolutely useless, but at least quite useless.
Xiao Mo's doubts deepened, and he decided to find Chen Qing and others tomorrow to ask for clarification.
The next day, in the classroom.
"What are you talking about? This incident did happen two years ago."
"But why did I find out that it happened five years ago? And your names were not on the death list at all!"
As soon as Xiao Mo met Chang Lengfeng and others, he couldn't wait to express the doubts in his mind. After listening to him, they did not explain, but immediately refuted.
Huang Liang didn't know why Xiao Mo said that. He patted Xiao Mo on the shoulder and asked:
"Did you see it wrong? I checked the reports about this incident online, and it is indeed the same as what Chen Qing said. It happened two years ago. And the death list you mentioned does have our names on it, but yours is not on it."
Faced with the attitude of several people who refused to admit it even if beaten to death, Xiao Mo sneered and took out his mobile phone:
"In that case, I will search in front of you to see who is lying."
After hearing this, several people gathered around. Xiao Mo did not hesitate and quickly started searching. Soon he found content about this incident, and then he clicked on one at random.
The above content was just as he had seen before. The incident happened five years ago, and Chang Lengfeng and his men were not on the death list. But just as he was about to tell them that the evidence was irrefutable, Huang Liang spoke before him:
"Look, it was indeed two years ago, and our names were on the list. I guess you just read it wrong."
"Yeah, it scared me. But I really hope our names are not on the list."
Xiao Mo looked at the expressions of the few people and they didn't seem to be lying, but what he saw was completely different from what they said. He couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Could it be that I was really disturbed by that kind of power? But why am I the only one who is different from them?"
A cloud of doubt weighed down Xiao Mo's heart again, and then he asked again and again, but the results were always the same.
This matter was quickly turned over by Chang Lengfeng and others, and the focus once again fell on how to prevent the deceased from entering the school.
"With the lesson learned last night, today we have one group inside the school and one group outside the school. As soon as we see Ji Ruhai, we will immediately step forward and subdue him."
After Chang Lengfeng finished speaking, he glanced at the few people and asked:
"Do you have any better suggestions?"
"Why don't we go directly to their homes? We don't even know if these people have really returned home. What if they haven't..."
"I considered this approach at first, but later I had to give it up because these people's homes are not in this city, and we don't know their detailed addresses."
"Their detailed addresses are easy to find out, and we can solve the problem by giving them a phone call. Moreover, this incident has been going on for quite some time. If you tell them the actual situation, I don't believe they will still hide at home."
Xiao Mo felt that Chang Lengfeng was making excuses because he just didn't want to go to those people's homes.
Facing Xiao Mo's questioning, Chang Lengfeng remained calm. He sighed and said:
"I can certainly think of what you said. I have been trying to contact them these days, but their phones are not working, and no one replies to text messages. We can't contact them at all now.
So, if we want to stop them now, there is no other way except to stay in school."
Xiao Mo was not convinced by Chang Lengfeng's statement. After a moment of silence, he asked again:
"We won't talk about whether these people really went home or where they went, but if we lose contact with them , we can call the police. If we can't find them, can't the police find them either?"
"I called the police."
This time it was Chen Qing who answered Xiao Mo. Xiao Mo stared into her eyes and asked:
"What did the police say?"
“The police said I was crazy because these people had died two years ago!”
"When did you call the police?"
"On the day Xu Hai died, the police gave me a reply the day before yesterday. Any more questions?"
Xiao Mo thought about it in his mind, then nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Seeing that Xiao Mo stopped asking questions, Chang Lengfeng continued:
"Cutting the flagpole is difficult. First of all, it is not easy to saw through. Secondly, there are people on the playground. We can't do it. If we want to do it, we can only do it late at night.
In this case, our focus should still be on preventing them from entering the school. If we cannot prevent them, we can consider other methods. "
Xiao Mo did not have any hope of preventing the deceased from entering the school. This could be seen from the fact that Xu Lili showed up in the school yesterday without anyone noticing. With her short stature, she would definitely not be able to climb over such a high wall.
There was another thing that Xiao Mo was very concerned about, which was the loss of contact with those who had left school. The phone was unreachable, and no one replied to the text messages. If Chang Lengfeng was not lying, then these people were truly missing.
Maybe they didn't go home at all, but went to some other weird place, or maybe... they are dead.
Xiao Mo thought about the content of the text message again. The mysterious man told him that only by continuing to investigate the matter with Chang Lengfeng and others would he have a chance of survival. Was this implying to him that those who did not participate in the investigation would be eliminated?
The more he thought about it, the more questions he had. For now, he could only take it one step at a time. But before that, he needed to call the police because he didn't trust Chen Qing.
Xiao Mo didn't know why he suspected Chen Qing and the others. These people were his classmates, and his good friend Huang Liang was also among them. It was unreasonable for him to have such thoughts, but in fact, he didn't even believe what his good friend Huang Liang said.
