"I think the ghost’s gone."
Yang Jian cautiously returned to where he came from, he didn’t see the ghost chasing him.
He opened the door and walked out, Yang Jian was stunned.
It's a familiar corridor.
Looking back, he was now in his classroom where he had escaped before.
He’s now back in the classroom on the fifth floor.
"What the hell? Wasn’t isn’t the door leading to the toilet." Yang Jian thought to himself, things were getting even more weird.
“Cough, cough~!"
A series of weak and painful coughs came from nearby.
"It's you, how did you get here?"
A pale, skinny man in a trench coat was sitting on the floor in the corridor, his bloodshot eyes looked at Yang Jian with some alertness.
"Zhou Zheng?" Yang Jian was taken aback at the sight of him.
"I don't know what's going on either. I was caught by a ghost in the toilet when I was escaping before. After finally finding a way out of there, I opened a door and found myself back here."
“Really? This must be caused by the ghost’s domain. It looks like that thing doesn't want to let you guys leave."
Zhou Zheng's eyes twitched: "However, there will only be one ghost in an apparitional domain, and that ghost is the old man in the black qipao, but he has already left. What you encountered should be that ghost’s servant."
"What is a ghost’s servant?" Yang Jian walked over and asked.
Zhou Zhengdao: "It's something that is manifested when people are killed by a ghost in its domain, it unconditionally obeys the ghost's instructions, just like the servants of a landlord’s house in the past, so it is called a ghost’s servant, but it’s not as scary as an actual apparition, though it's still very threatening to ordinary people like you
Cough, cough, it hasn’t even been that long since the ghost manifested its domain, but ghost servants have already started appearing. You’re very lucky to have come out alive."
"But this is not the time to be talking about this, since you’re here..."
He took out something similar to a walkie-talkie from inside his jacket.
"This is the standard satellite phone provided to interpols. Take it and leave. If you can get out of this damn place, someone will contact you. Just tell that person what happened here. "Zhou Zhengdao, with a painful look on his face.
“Brother Criminal Police, what about you?" Yang Jian asked.
Zhou Zhengdao: "i’ve reached my limits. I used my ghost too much when I delayed the old man just now. That thing is about to awaken. People who can uses a apparition are called ghost users, but the same ghost will also gradually control its user, as someone who is no longer human but isn’t a ghost to live is to suffer...Ah~! "
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly screamed out in pain and fell to the ground to struggle.
While struggling, his huge windbreaker opened up.
Yang Jian was startled. Under the windbreaker was a bulging belly, it was bigger than a pregnant woman’s belly. The belly was somewhat transparent, and you could see there was actually a child four to five years old curled inside.
The baby was bluish black, with sharp nails on his fingers, and his eyes were as black as ink, pupiless. It squirmed and tore at the belly, as if it wanted to rip open his belly and come out.
“W-what is this?"
"The newborn, it’s been named like that in the files."
Zhou Zheng resisted the pain: "In the beginning, it was only about the size of a thumb. But as I used the ghost, it grew by a fraction. Even when I didn’t use it, it would still be growing. My intestines and internal organs in my stomach have all been consumed by it, everyday I have to endure the pain of having my organs chewed at.
I can’t sleep at night because of this pain..."
"Even though my internal organs have all been eaten by the newborn, leaving only an empty belly, an ordinary person would have already died from this, but I didn’t die. To me, living is suffering and torture, death would be a kind of relief to me."
“Now go, take this phone and go."
He threw his phone and shouted: "If you don't leave, this ghost baby will be leaving with you. Then there will be two ghosts here, making it even more difficult for you to escape."
Yang Jian picked up the phone, looking at his painful expression, he couldn't help touching the back of his hand. He had experienced this kind of pain too.
Ghost user?
Has he become the same as Zhou Zheng?
“I’m sorry to let you down, but the old man’s in a different category, I’m not a match for it and failed to hold the old ghost and save you guys from here, you can only rely on yourself now."
Zhou Zheng saw Yang Jian pick up the phone, and showed him a bitter smile.
Yang Jian said: "Since you knew this much, why did you stay here in the first place? If you want to leave before, you could have left safely. There was no need to stay behind and die with us."
"Because I am a criminal policeman and a ghost user. Only people like us can deal with apparitions. If we are cowards, this world will be done for... I am doing this job not only for my country and the people, but also for my family, for myself."
Zhou Zheng's mouth twisted,the pain was becoming more intense. He felt that he was really at the brink of collapse now and suddenly shouted: "What are you still doing here, leave, leave."
Yang Jian trembled, and didn’t dare to stay, squeezing the phone in his hand, he turned around and ran.
"By the way, be careful of the student called Fang Jing who’s in your class. I’ve seen him before. He’s very abnormal...almost inhuman, I can’t say that for sure. But it’s best for you to stay away from him. I’ve already reported this about him. Someone will investigate in the future. Don’t believe in the nonsense he says about the future, it is impossible for anyone to return to the past, experiments about this have already been conducted before. "
Zhou Zheng yelled out again as he writhed in pain.
“What?"
Yang Jian looked back surprised at what he said.
"Ah~!"
As soon as he turned his head, he heard a scream, and saw Zhou Zheng's belly tear apart, a bluish black arm stretched out, and as the opening on his belly became bigger and bigger... .. The head of the newborn popped out, like a newborn baby
It looked around curiously.
From its eyes showed its sense of curiosity and evil nature
Go!
Yang Jian turned around and ran.
"Wahh..."
As soon as he walked down the stairs, a strange cry echoed in the corridor behind him, as if to announce to the world about its arrival.
The newborn leisurely crawled out of Zhou Zheng, whose bulging belly quickly deflated up like a popped balloon.
No blood flowed out, you couldn’t even see any of his internal organs anymore, only bits of flesh that had turned black.
Like he’s said before, his internal organs had already been consumed by the newborn.
"Dad, mom, I’m sorry..."
Zhou Zheng's eyes gradually lost their glamour and dimmed. His head rested on its sides, the vitality all but gone, but his eyes were still watching the newborn slowly crawl in the direction where Yang Jian left.
Fourth floor, third floor...
“Great, I’m not lost."
Yang Jian sped down the stairs quickly, his heart beating with excitement.
He discovered that there wasn’t any more darkness in the stairs anymore. Although it was dim, everything was clearly visible, and there wasn’t any ghost hit wall like there was before.
t/n: ghost hit wall means to become lost due to a ghost, like what happened when they first left the classroom
Without the darkness or getting lost. If everything went normally, it would only take a few minutes to leave the school.
As he came to the second floor, he saw Zhang Wei, Miao Xiaoshan and several other classmates walking back and forth in horror in the corridor. They had their mobile phones in hand, with their lights turned on, and walked from one end of the corridor to the other, then turning around and going back again.
They’ve already gone back and forth several times now.
Like they were stuck in an illusion, never managing to break free.
"No, that's not right, it's not that the ghost’s domain has been dispelled, nor that the darkness has receded, it’s that I can see through all of this..." Yang Jian's expression shifted slightly, he looked at the red eye on the back of his hand .
So this the ability of a ghost user?
Then, this eye is also...an apparition.
He remembered what Zhou Zheng said before. The ghost baby in his stomach was only the size of a fingernail in the beginning, and it grew the size it was later.
If that’s the case, what will this eye look like in the future?
Will it become a ghost and devour him?
Thinking of the situation Zhou Zheng was in, Yang Jian felt a shiver down his spine, now he could only look the eye in horror.
The joy of seeing through the ghost’s domain from before had disappeared instantly.
"Even if I will be killed by this eye, that’ll only be in the future. The most urgent thing is to leave here first."
The only thing Yang Jian could do was grit his teeth and prevent himself letting his imagination run wild, and then strode towards Zhang Wei and the others.
But in Zhang Wei's eyes, everything around them was only darkness.
The light on the phone could only go about a meter, any further and you couldn’t see clearly.
"Zhang Wei, we have been walking for half an hour already. And we still haven’t gotten out yet, will we be trapped in here forever?" Miao Xiaoshan who was next to him asked nervously.
"That Zhou Zheng said that this is a ghost’s domain, do you know what a ghost domain is? Are there really ghosts, were the things that happened in our classroom just now paranormal activities? If it's a ghost, we really might not be able to go out." The other students on the side said cautiously.
Zhang Wei said with a serious face: "Don't worry, we’ll never be stuck here forever, that’s absolutely impossible. Trust me, in a few days, we’ll all starve to death, it won't take nearly as long."
"......"
You can still say things like this now.
Suddenly.
"Click, clack~!" A series of footsteps could be heard approaching from the darkness.
“W-who’s that?"
Zhang Wei became nervous in an instant, the others were also trembling in fear.
"Calm down, it's me, Yang Jian."
Yang Jian's voice came from the darkness.
“Stop, don't you, don't you come over here, you said you are Yang Jian, but can you prove it? What if you’re a ghost pretending to be him?" Zhang Wei said.
Yang Jian said: "What time do you think this is Zhang Wei, can't you less long-winded? It's dangerous here. I get you out. You won’t get lost if you follow me."
He came here to save Zhang Wei and the others. If he didn’t, these people will undoubtedly die here. Although he and Fang Jing have a grudge, they have nothing to do with it.
In addition, two ghosts appeared in this domain. The degree of horror is unimaginable.
“Wait, if you are really Yang Jian, let me ask you this, what’s my English name, you only have one chance. If you answer it wrong, you’re not a living human." Zhang Wei said.
"Wo de ji er · ying bang bang..." Yang Jian said.
Zhang Wei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "It’s really you, not a ghost. This scared me. Fortunately, we exchanged secret codes beforehand."
