Chapter 97 Teaching Building
"I heard the West City Tournament is in two days?"
"Yes."
In the bedroom of Sariel, the governor of the western city, two handsome men, one in gold and one in purple, were raising their glasses of red wine and chatting.
"Then you'll have a lot more to prepare."
"Haha, this is my first time officially driving!"
“Many people disagreed with me during the previous trial run, especially the mayor of Wells Town.”
"Later he died unexpectedly, and everyone thought I was the one who did it."
"Behind my back, there were rumors and gossip about me, and some old guys even formed some kind of anti-Sand alliance?"
"It's really laughable, I would never resort to such despicable means."
When Wells was mentioned, Leo's eyes lit up, but he didn't say anything, only taking a small sip of red wine.
"Wouldn't that be better? They'd respect you even more!"
"Sigh~ Let's keep things separate. But I only realized how many things there are to deal with every day after I became governor."
Do you sometimes get headaches?
"Of course there are. For example, there's the missing persons case at Xicheng University. I had law enforcement investigate it, but I kept feeling some inexplicable resistance."
Have you found out who it is?
Leo asked casually, while Sariel slowly sat down in an expensive chair and looked out the window through his amber eyes.
“I suspect it’s related to Francis, but I have no evidence. If he’s this old and still wants to cause trouble, I don’t mind letting him experience my methods.”
"I believe you can succeed."
"Me too!"
Their conversation ended there. Sariel sipped his red wine and gazed quietly out the window, as if pondering recent events.
Leo slowly came up behind him, put his hands on his shoulders, and gently massaged his shoulders.
Unbeknownst to Sariel, those purple pupils were also fixed intently on him.
It's almost there...
................
"classmate?"
What is that place ahead?
"The three of us are transfer students and we're not very familiar with this place yet."
"I do not know."
A student from Xicheng University was suddenly grabbed. He was in a hurry to go to the toilet, so he tried to break free from the person's hand, but the person held his arm tightly and he couldn't pull it off no matter how hard he tried.
"Are you out of your mind? Why are you dragging me into this?"
"I told you, I don't know..."
The student turned around angrily, only to find a man who looked very much like a gangster from the Third Street area.
Looking at the fierce-looking bald man, the student couldn't help but swallow hard, and his initial refusal turned into:
"What do you want to do?"
"I'm not interested in a delicate-skinned young man like you."
?
He looked at the bald, burly man with the sinister grin and couldn't help but clench his legs. Just as he was wondering if he was going to lose some organ today, the most handsome guy in the opposite group suddenly spoke up.
"Bear, ask me something important!"
"it is good."
We asked, "What's ahead?"
"The old teaching building! The old teaching building!"
"The new ones were built in recent years, but they have been in a state of disrepair ever since!"
To the student's surprise, the leader of the three was not the bald, burly man who had grabbed him, nor the somewhat effeminate-looking man, but rather the man with the most peaceful demeanor.
"You should have said that earlier," the guy called Bear said, looking at the trembling student with disdain.
After getting the information, the three exchanged glances and walked together toward the teaching building, leaving only the student whose legs were trembling.
Is this my classmate?
Watching the three men leave, his trousers became slightly damp.
..................
The old teaching building looks somewhat dilapidated, probably because it hasn't been maintained for a long time since it was closed, making it appear messy and dirty.
Without hesitation, Lin Tian and his two companions stepped inside. According to Fate, the cross amulet would emit different temperatures depending on the distance of the person marking it.
The moment he stepped into the teaching building, the cross on his chest began to feel slightly warm, clearly indicating that the mastermind behind the disappearance was in this abandoned teaching building.
The group walked through the teaching building, which had five floors. Every time Lin Tian climbed a floor, the temperature of his cross would increase by one point.
When Lin Tian arrived at the third floor, he noticed that the staircase leading to the fourth floor was gradually becoming distorted and blurry. However, this phenomenon did not last long and returned to normal after a while.
This immediately aroused Lin Tian's suspicion, but after confirming that the stairs were climbable, he continued upwards.
Upon arriving on the fourth floor, Lin Tian was surprised to find someone there.
"What are you guys doing here?"
"Don't you know you're not allowed to come here?"
The speaker was a thin old man, whom Lin Tian recognized. Wasn't this Francis, the president of West City University?
Francis, clearly unaware that Lin Tian knew he was dead, still adopted the demeanor of a school principal, sternly reprimanding the group.
"They say this place is haunted, and we're a little curious..."
Lin Tian acted like a mischievous student, and this demeanor quickly fooled Francis.
Francis remained silent for a moment, then pretended to have a headache.
"Sigh~ You students are such a worry..."
"Fine, since you're here, why don't you do me a favor!"
Francis waved for the three to follow him up. During this time, he also saw a burly, bald man. The sight of that man made him slip and almost fall to the ground.
Do I have any students who look like that?
Francis was shocked by the bald, burly man's appearance, mainly because the guy's face looked so different from a student's, but he quickly recovered.
To maintain his image in front of the students, he gently pushed up his glasses, coughed casually, and pretended that nothing had happened.
"Come with me!"
Francis stepped onto the stairs first, then gestured for the three to follow, and Lin Tian quickly followed, behaving like a well-behaved student.
Just as the group stepped onto the fifth floor, Francis suddenly cracked a wicked smile.
He turned to speak, but before he could, Lin Tian spoke first:
"Principal Francis."
"I have a question."
Do dead people feel pain?
what?
What do you mean?
"Bear!!"
boom! ! ! !
