Chapter 45 Gone

"Creaky--"

There was a sound of a door being pushed open, it was the door of the first cubicle.

Long Tao covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound.

The bathroom here is not big, with only 5 cubicles.

Each cubicle is not high, and people can see the situation in the next cubicle by standing on tiptoe.

He was shrinking in the fourth cubicle.

Dongdong

"Creaky--"

"Creaky--"

The second door and the third door were pushed open one after another.

The strange sound finally stopped outside his door.

Time stopped at this moment.

Just when Long Tao made up his mind and rushed out the moment that thing pushed the door open.

The door next door was suddenly pushed open, it was the innermost cubicle, and the old door hinge made a tooth-grinding friction sound.

That thing actually gave up the cubicle he was in.

Then, a few seconds later, the dongdong sound rang again.

That thing left the bathroom, and the strange drumbeats gradually faded away.

Gone?

Gone? !

The feeling of surviving a disaster is completely indescribable.

Long Tao's legs softened and he sat on the ground.

Half a minute later, he forced himself to stand up.

It had nothing to do with courage, but he was worried that the thing would come back.

He lay on the door and listened quietly for a while.

Then he quietly pushed open the door of the compartment.

The bathroom was quiet and empty.

Long Tao couldn't help but feel happy, and hurriedly lowered his footsteps and walked towards the door.

He only touched the ground with his toes when walking, so he made almost no sound.

Closer

Closer

Just as he was about to step out of the bathroom door, a ridiculous but strange chill instantly enveloped him, causing him to shiver violently.

He had never felt this way before.

Almost subconsciously, he looked behind him.

His neck turned a little bit, like a rusted screw.

"Hu——"

There was nothing behind him.

No one.

There was no grinning ghost as imagined.

But just as he breathed a sigh of relief and retracted his gaze, he inadvertently glanced at the mirror in front of the sink.

The next second, it was like being struck by lightning.

The mirror in the men's bathroom was gray and one corner had cracked.

The cracks like spider webs covered most of the mirror.

It was obviously abandoned.

But these were no longer important in Long Tao's eyes. His pupils shrank suddenly and the corners of his eyes twitched violently, as if they would crack in the next second.

Through the reflection of the mirror, he saw a pair of legs floating above his head!

A gust of wind blew from somewhere in the enclosed space, and it was eerie, and the legs actually swayed slightly.

"Crack--"

"Crack--"

Long Tao trembled, raised his head mechanically, and saw a pair of scarlet, resentful eyes.

The eyes were hidden in the thick black hair, like a soul-stirring knife.

Long Tao opened his mouth wide, but did not make any sound.

His mouth grew bigger and bigger, even beyond the limit of what ordinary people can do. The corners of his mouth began to tear, and bright red blood immediately spurted out.

With the last "click", everything fell silent.

A drop of blood splashed into the eyes that were still open.

Slowly, it spread like cinnabar.

"What is he dawdling about?" Zhou Taifu looked back at the corridor and complained unhappily.

Zhang Yinyin took a while to answer, "Maybe the situation is worse." After a pause, she muttered as if talking to herself, "But it's true that too much time has passed."

The word "bad" gave Zhou Taifu a very bad premonition. He extinguished the cigarette butt between his fingers, frowned, and in a trance, he felt that the corridor behind him had become deeper.

"How long has he been gone?"

"I don't know," Zhang Yinyin's voice was still weak, "but it must be 20 minutes at least."

20 minutes

Zhou Taifu's face became ugly.

He ran towards the music classroom.

Zhang Yinyin seemed to be frightened by Zhou Taifu's behavior and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Zhou, where are you going?"

"I'm going back to call people," Zhou Taifu said without turning his head, "You stay here!"

"I dare not," Zhang Yinyin also realized that something was wrong, and followed Zhou Taifu like a little tail.

A strange atmosphere descended, and the two walked faster and faster, one in front and one behind, and finally even ran.

It seemed that whoever was at the end would be dragged away by the ghost.

The rehearsal had just ended, and Jiang Cheng and others were packing up.

Zhou Taifu was used to living a life of luxury on weekdays, and he ran out of breath on this section of the road.

In the end, it was Zhang Yinyin who explained the whole story to everyone.

"Didn't you go to take a look?" Luo Yi asked.

This was a standard nonsense.

After all, no one thought that ghosts might appear in the daytime, especially when so many people gathered here.

"Don't be chaotic," Jiang Cheng stood up and said: "The matter has not been determined yet."

Although Jiang Cheng said so, even he himself felt that Long Tao should be in danger.

"Do you know where the bathroom is?" Yu Wen asked.

"Yes."

At this time, Zhou Taifu glanced at the side of the chorus and said weakly: "Do you want to take that woman with you?"

He was referring to the woman in charge of the connection.

According to Zhou Taifu's idea, the woman could go in first.

It would be best if Long Tao was fine. If something happened, they would not be in any danger outside.

"Ha," Zhen Jianren, who has never expressed an opinion, crossed his arms and sneered, "I advise you not to do it. It is better to avoid unnecessary interference in this world."

Jiang Cheng, Yu Wen, and Zhen Jianren had a rare agreement on how to handle this matter.

After saying this, they quietly walked out the door.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I took a few steps, the woman I met ran out and asked straight to the point: "Where is that friend of yours?"

Everyone fell silent in unison.

The woman's expression slowly changed and she looked more and more nervous. Her fine hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her forehead and cheeks. "Is something going to happen to him?"

After hearing these words, Yu Wen and the others' expressions instantly changed. Just when she was about to open her mouth, Jiang Cheng suddenly said, "No, his body couldn't bear it, so he went back first."

"Oh," the woman's pale cheeks finally turned rosy, as if her heart had dropped.

Groups of students came out. One of them, a girl with round-rimmed glasses and a cadre-like look, glanced around, and finally settled on the woman, "Teacher Feng?"

The woman responded after hearing this, and then explained to Jiang Cheng and others that she still had work, so she wouldn't give it away.

Jiang Cheng nodded, "Then get busy, we'll go back first."

"When is the next rehearsal?"

This question seemed to stop the woman. She thought for a while and replied: "This needs to be decided by the school leaders after watching the replay."

After leaving, the group went straight to the bathroom where Long Tao was.

The faces of the few people became worse and worse as they left. Even Zhou Taifu and Zhang Yinyin, who had been here before, noticed something was wrong.
