“Bang!”
The chair fell to the ground and smashed the false peaceful atmosphere in an instant.
In the classroom, with the noise from the chair hitting the ground as well as Bai Yan’s urgent pants for air, any person who heard these knew that the ghost had come.
Bai Yan picked up the textbook behind him and smashed it to the ground, his head not looking back as he raced to the front.
Now that the ghost had already set its sight on him, remaining quiet didn’t make any sense.
Relying on the memory of when there was still light, Bai Yan felt for the door, wanting to open the door and run outside the classroom.
He depended on his recollection, changing his direction towards where the glass door was.
It was also black in the corridor, without the slightest illumination, no one could see anything. Moreover, the portrait of the headmistress was still hanging in the hall. Recklessly going out in this kind of situation was undoubtedly dangerous as well.
However, Bai Yan didn’t have a choice.
Staying in the classroom, he would die right now if he were caught by Li Hua.
For a person like Bai Yan, whether it was living or dying, it would make him feel happy.
But once he died, there was no way for him to experience the joys of life again.
So, when there was a chance for him to go against it, Bai Yan wouldn’t sit around and wait for death.
Mankind’s will to live was also imprinted on his soul, making him do everything he can to survive. Even if he during desperate straits, he wouldn’t keep his hands tied and await capture.
However, despite his life being in imminent peril, his face was also showing a morbid smile, similar to Li Hua’s. He was also enjoying the situation where he could lose his life at any time.
In the darkness, Bai Yan’s light irises cast a layer of shadow.
He staggered along, bumping into numerous tables inside the classroom.
The sharp edges of the tables left many bruises on his body, but he didn’t give any mind to them at all, because he finally passed through all the tables and chairs, and the exit was just ahead.
Without thinking about it, Bai Yan quickly ran to the door.
However, the solid wood feeling he was expecting wasn’t there. He felt like he knocked against a cold hard object…
Bai Yan raised his head out of reflex and saw a faint light, directly hitting his head.
At the door, a familiar-looking woman had the corners of her mouth split.
She was no longer smiling but was grinning evilly.
She opened her mouth wide, exposing a deathly pale set of sawteeth.
Seeing as she wasn’t trying to cover up that malevolent smile, Bai Yan finally understood why she was smiling all the time.
That’s right, Ning Xiuli was smiling, but she never showed her teeth. During the lecture, she was only slightly wiggling her lips, only small slips of white appearing and disappearing from time to time, leaving people to think that she was polite and gentle, her manner of speaking also warm.
Now, Bai Yan finally understood.
Ning Xiuli’s mouth was filled with sharp triangular teeth. These dense saw-like teeth were impossible for a normal person to have.
Her toothless smile, her chocolates, these were all to buy their hearts, for everyone to lower their guard around her…
This way, when a genuine crisis was happening, they would have no opportunities to fight back.
Ning Xiuli stood at the door. Her hand was holding a phone, and the phone’s light was flashing on Bai Yan’s face, causing his face to look utterly white.
In this sort of light, Ning Xiuli unbridledly sized Bai Yan up. Her eyes were filled with evil intentions, and following her eyes’ movements, her teeth were also moving up and down and making a crunching sound—— As though she was asking where he wanted to escape to.
The road ahead was blocked, and Bai Yan completely cut off the idea of barricading through the door.
He should have realized earlier that Ning Xiuli was working in tandem with the ghost from the textbook.
Li Hua wanted to find a ‘friend’ to grab onto and accompany him to play in the book.
As for Ning Xiuli, her actions led to Li Hua coming out of the pages as a ‘person,’ which was all to help Li Hua.
Not to mention, he had also bombed her office not too long ago.
This woman, she needed to be kept an eye on when she was alive. After she died, she became more severe, so how could she let him go so easily?
Bai Yan gasped, a cool feeling oozing from behind him.
“Whoosh whoosh——”
“Whoosh—— Whoosh——”
Behind him, countless textbooks on top of desks started flipping through pages. At this very moment, it didn’t matter whether the book was closed or left open, all of them were crazily flipping through pages until they reached the ‘Happy Zoo’ story, stopping the sounds that they made.
Hearing the crisp page-turning noises, Bai Yan’s back turned cold. He knew that he couldn’t wait any longer.
Li Hua was passing through the books, rapidly getting closer to him.
Bai Yan recoiled, pulling away from Ning Xiuli to create some distance. Before turning around and sprinting in another direction.
Class 4 of the First Grade was on the ground floor, and the classrooms had many windows in them.
Although he was blocked by Ning Xiuli at the door, he could still escape through the window.
Outside the windows, there were several bushes, and the only way out there was to go under the greenery for a chance to escape.
Crises fell onto the classroom one after another, and Bai Yan hadn’t had the chance to consider if it was dangerous outside.
Feeling the darkness creeping on him, he staggered as he ran to the windows.
Who knows when it started raining hard outside, but the ‘pi pa’ sounds of raindrops landing were covered by the pages turning inside the room, unexpectedly harmonious with each other.
If it weren’t pitch-black inside the classroom, it might have been fun to ‘read stories on a rainy night.’
However, the people inside the room didn’t have this quiet peaceful feeling. Despite these two sounds, Bai Yan could still hear his heart beating loud as well as the urgency in his breaths.
His hand reached out to the window, intending to push the window open and escape.
However, when his fingertips had just touched the window’s lock, lightning streaked across the sky giving the world a fleeting moment of light.
Its life was gone in an instant, but the moment of brightness was already enough for Bai Yan to clearly see what was in front of him.
The originally clean transparent glass window was unexpectedly pasted with densely packed ghostly faces. They were so close and crowded together that they filled up all the window panes. All of them were exposed outside the glass barrier, all of them carrying miserable and bitter faces!
From one window to another, their faces packed the surface like ants, twisting and squeezing against one another, able to let anyone with trypohobia make their skin crawl.
Bai Yan didn’t have trypophobia, but his pale fingertips couldn’t help but retreat from the window lock.
The ghostly faces, whether they had resentment or malice, or they were staring at him in a twisted manner, made him not want to open the windows for any reason.
He had a feeling that if he dared to open the window, these ghostly faces would enter through the small cracks of the window and crawl in, swarming him and tearing him to shreds!
“Whoosh——”
“Whoosh whoosh——”
There was a crisp sound of page-turning from the table nearest the window.
Bai Yan rigidly stood in his original spot. At this very moment, he had no clue where else he could escape to.
“Whoosh… Whoo…”
The clear sounds of turning pages stopped.
It, came out of the book.
Now, only the sounds of raindrops beating the tree leaves could be heard from outside.
Bai Yan didn’t move. He listened to the sound of rain outside since his eyes couldn’t make anything out.
But in this state of blindness, he could unexpectedly feel that there was something slowly approaching him…
In the sea of endless darkness, Bai Yan recoiled from this approaching suffocation, his back quickly sticking to the window.
There was something solid pressed against his back. Bai Yan’s hand touched on the glass, making him feel somewhat relieved.
But right away, he remembered the ghosts that wanted to play on the other side.
Those ghostly faces were only separated by a layer of glass.
Through the thin glass, the rain cut through the ghostly face, making them more distorted, opening their mouths wider, they used their teeth to break through the glass.
When they completely gnaw through the glass, the next second would be his death.
However, Bai Yan didn’t have the time to reflect on this fact.
The oozing suffocating feeling had already reached the top of his head.
Bai Yan knew that Li Hua was already standing in front of him.
He was face to face with him.
