Chapter 82: This world is unscientific (13)
It naturally wasn’t pleasant to hear a woman’s shriek first thing in the morning. But since he had already picked up the phone, Teacher Ren couldn’t just refused to help someone in trouble. He could only grumpily put down the food in his hand and say to the woman on the other side of the phone: “Beauty, please calm down. Tell me your current location so we can go over and help you. If you continue to scream, then you’ll just scream yourself to death.”
Lu Pan Er initially continued to scream, but after hearing Ren Zhu’s cold words that lacked any sympathy, she stopped for the sake of her dear life and quickly told Ren Zhu her address. “I’m in the staff residential area of Rainbow Kindergarten. Hurry up and come! I can’t live here any longer! It’s too terrifying!”
Ren Zhu slightly raised an eyebrow when he heard the words ‘Rainbow Kindergarten’. This red-dressed beauty actually had the same profession as him? However, Pang Fei had already cried out in alarm: “Aiyah, she’s actually someone from Rainbow Kindergarten? Then her salary must be very high! This is the most famous high-end private kindergarten in our city. It is said that all the teachers have a master’s degree. They also cherish and protect the children as though they were their parents. It’s just that the tuition fee is too high. The minimum cost per month is more than 6000 yuan.”
Having been a teacher at Dingdian School and later succeeded in becoming the principal, Teacher Ren expressed, this little tuition fee isn’t even enough to be the monthly allowance of the children who went to Dingdian. However, in this world where the three views were relatively normal, with just the additions of ghosts, this price was considered to be very high.
“Well then, let’s go and see how luxurious the staff living quarters of this Rainbow Kindergarten is.” Ren Zhu said as he stood up. He glanced over at Yi Xiao who was sitting to the side: “Are you coming? It might just be a small ghost.”
Master Yi really wanted to go, but he was currently busy refining the five-coloured glass bead. He felt that the sooner he finished refining it, the sooner he would be at ease. Hence, he shook his head: “You go with Pang Fei. I’m a little busy.”
After saying this, he still felt a little worried and started to look through the things in his clothes. Fishing out a small jade slab, Yi Xiao stood up and put the jade around Ren Zhu’s neck: “You have me. Just go and do whatever you want.”
Ren Zhu smiled: “En. Even if I now pierce through the sky, you would also help me take responsibility for it, right? Emperor?”
Master Yi’s eternal iceberg face revealed a loving and pampering smile. He nodded with certainty: “Of course.” Do whatever you want. Even if you really pierce a hole in the sky, I can also repair it.
While Yi Xiao and Ren Zhu were smiling at each other, Pang Fei felt that even if he became a ghost, having to also be stuffed with dog food every day was really tragic. At this moment, he really wanted to disappear into thin air.
Fortunately, Teacher Ren remembered that he still needed to save someone’s life. He tore his eyes away from Yi Xiao and then left with Pang Fei. Emperor Yi was in a very good mood as he refined the five-coloured glass bead at home. If anyone knew of his plan, they would definitely think that he was simply playing with his own life. But Yi Xiao had even succeeded in refining a Taiji Soul Bead. Why couldn’t he refine a five-coloured glass bead? In any case, compared with the pain that penetrated deep into his soul, the feeling of never being able to find Ren Zhu’s soul was even more unacceptable. Whatever the case, he must tightly hold onto this person; not just in this life, but for eternity.
Ren Zhu finally arrived at the staff living quarters next to Rainbow Kindergarten after half an hour.
When he got out of the car, he felt that this Rainbow Kindergarten was indeed a very rich preschool education facility. Just looking at its appearance, this kindergarten was just like a gorgeous castle out of a children’s fairy tale. The sound of laughter could be heard coming from inside.
Ren Zhu couldn’t help but smile when he heard the children’s laughter, but this smile didn’t even last for two seconds when his face suddenly stiffened. He frowned and looked in the direction of the kindergarten, feeling like he must be hearing things.
“Huh? I seem to hear a child screaming and crying?” Standing next to Ren Zhu, Pang Fei also looked over: “Am I hallucinating?”
Ren Zhu’s expression sank. Taking a deep breath, he turned around and walked towards the gorgeous residential area on the side. This was the address that Lu Pang Er gave him. “Let’s first go and see Lu Pan Er.”
Pang Fei nodded and quickly followed behind him. He now looked about the same as an ordinary person. However, he must cultivate under the sun and the moon every morning and night in order to slowly solidify his body and increase his power. Otherwise, there would once again be the case where he would directly fall to the ground with a touch, or turned into a paper man when pressed. So at this moment, he must avoid bumping into anyone, lest he scares someone by turning into paper or having a large hole in him.
When Ren Zhu arrived at the residential area, he was questioned by the security guard, so Ren Zhu reported Lu Pang Er’s name. Perhaps the way he said the name was a lot like a leader coming over to perform an inspection; the security guard directly let them in after a few words.
Then, Ren Zhu’s face sank as soon as he stepped into this residential area.
[Ding. Forcefully activated the class teacher’s detailed perception skill (special vision). There is a strong negative energy in this community. Host, please be careful.]
This was the first time that Ren Zhu heard this kind of reminder from the system. However, he didn’t even need it. Just with his eyes, he could see that this place actually wasn’t as beautiful and prosperous as it appeared to be — the entire residential area was enveloped in a dark resentful aura. From time to time, Ren Zhu could also hear the laughter of little ghosts by his ear, but this laughter definitely wasn’t pleasant or joyful, but rather a sound that indicated death.
Pang Fei directly cursed: “Fuck! There’s a big evil spirit here! This ghost’s aura is so dense that even I find it hard to bear it.”
It should be mentioned that Pang Fei was an evil spirit who was born on the day of the ghost festival and was also tortured to death. His resentful aura was already very strong. However, in this residential area, there was actually an evil spirit who was even stronger than him.
“Teacher, should we go back first? I think it’s better to call Master over. There’s too much dark energy. If things don’t go well, we might not be able to leave here.”
However, Ren Zhu didn’t say anything and directly walked to the building emitting the darkest energy. Standing at the entrance of this building, Ren Zhu nodded. 7th building, 9th floor, room 1. This was Lu Pan Er’s apartment.
“Let’s go up.”
Ren Zhu already had a bad premonition in his heart. He just hoped that this time, he was wrong.
Ren Zhu and Pang Fei stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the 9th floor. The elevator slowly rose, but when it reached the 4th floor, it suddenly stopped and opened its doors as though waiting for Ren Zhu and Pang Fei to get off. Ren Zhu narrowed his eyes, while Pang Fei huffed: “You dare to play around in front of Laozi?! Scram!”
A violent energy burst out from Pang Fei as he said this. Then, the elevator fiercely shook as though something had run away in fright. Ren Zhu seemed to hear the cry of a child, and then the elevator continued to rise directly to the 9th floor.
“Was that just a small ghost?” Ren Zhu asked.
Pang Fei scratched his head: “En, I think so. There should be a big ghost in this building that’s a little stronger than me, but the other’s are all small ghosts; they’re not my opponents. But teacher, I can sense that the biggest ghost seems to be on this floor. If I can’t fight against it, then you must quickly run away and call for Master. Otherwise, we will be in trouble.”
Ren Zhu smiled: “I’m not that weak. In any case, I am also someone who has gone through many storms and gales.”
Pang Fei didn’t agree. No matter how many storms and gales you’ve gone through, you’re still an ordinary person! How can an ordinary person compared with that big demon king!
When they stepped out onto the 9th floor, Ren Zhu heard the laughter and shrieks of children echoing throughout the floor, as though there were a dozen children circling around him. He actually saw a dozen black shadows running about all over the place. Some of them stopped to pull faces at him. Two of them also silently rushed towards him, as thought to give him a fright.
However……
Ren Zhu simply reached out and seized the two little ghosts with his hands.
The boss and the second in command: ??? Who am I? Where am I? How was I captured by a human?!
The two little ghosts were completely stunned after they were caught. The other ghosts laughing and running around were also startled. They huddled together and cautiously looked at Ren Zhu, suddenly having the dreadful feeling like they were looking at the head of the kindergarten.
However, Ren Zhu didn’t do anything to these two little ghosts. He simply walked to Room 1 with Pang Fei. Standing in front of the door, he could hear the screams and begs of mercy from inside. This was undoubtedly Lu Pan Er’s voice.
“I beg you! Please, let me go!! I really didn’t know about that matter ah! I was only following the arrangement of the principal and the director! I didn’t expect that there would be that kind of people in there!”
“Ahhhh —! Stop hitting me! It hurts! It hurts! I- I don’t have any way to expose this matter! Don’t you know that the head of the kindergarten is acquainted with a lot of powerful people? If I expose this matter, then the person who’s dead would be me! I’m also very helpless ah! I also don’t know what to do!!”
Saying this, Lu Pan Er was already going hysterical and on the brink of collapse. Standing in front of the door, Ren Zhu could smell the strong scent of blood. He finally decided to stop listening and pushed the door open.
Walking in, he saw that Lu Pan Er’s hair was in a mess and her clothes were covered in blood. There were small blood marks all over her body that seemed like they were cut by something sharp. These kinds of wounds would make people feel a lot of pain, but because the cuts were tiny, it wouldn’t cause them to bleed to death. However, even though it was like this, there were too many cuts. The white spotless floor was now stained with blood, and diagonally opposite Lu Pan Er, there was a small boy about 5 years old who was shrouded in a dense dark aura.
He was smiling, but his smile was so dark and sinister that it could cause people to have nightmares with just a single glance.
The instant Ren Zhu and Pang Fei walked in, the boy’s blood-red ghost eyes glared at them and he let out a penetrating roar: “Don’t hinder me! Scram!”
Seeing that this child was full of dark energy, Teacher Ren’s first reaction to was take pity on him, but after hearing such rude words from the child’s mouth, his teacher’s soul was directly awakened: “No matter how agitated you are, you still shouldn’t curse at people. Apologise to me, and then speak politely.”
The little ghost almost thought that he was hallucinating when he heard these words. He then floated into the air and burst out in laughter: “You idiot! Who do you think you are? You think you can make me apologise?! My parents don’t care about me anymore, but you still want to care about me? Pei! You came here to save this woman, right?! I’m telling you, she will die today! No one can save her! If you try to interfere, I will kill you too —”
Teacher Ren nodded with understanding and then directly activated his class teacher’s reprimand: “Sit down. I’ll start asking you questions.”
That little ghost laughed at how foolish this guy was. And then ……
He sat down.
Little ghost: “……” Something isn’t right! I have never been this obedient before! Even my mother couldn’t make me sit down with one sentence!!
Teacher Ren: “What is your name?”
Little ghost: Pei! Only ghosts would tell you!!
“Dou Dou.”
Little ghost: “……” This is unscientific ah!!
