Trafford Buyers Club

Chapter 149 The Unfinished Staircase
After coming in from the very beginning, Zhang Qingrui was in a state of absent-mindedness. At this time, he suddenly asked about the cabinet, and it was about the scalp ball in the cabinet, which immediately made Teacher Wang in the teaching office stunned.

"My classmate, what happened to the ball?" Wang Xing's female teacher asked in surprise.

Zhang Qingrui shook his head suddenly, "It's nothing, I just feel that the ball doesn't fit here."

There are all kinds of awards and medals in this cabinet, but a very old-looking leather ball is mixed in, so the style of painting is naturally a little different.

Teacher Wang didn't seem to care about it, but he was also puzzled: "Is there a ball here? What kind of thing, don't tell me, I really didn't notice it."

After speaking, Teacher Wang walked up to the cabinet, opened the glass cabinet door, and took out the ball inside.She glanced curiously, then didn't pay attention, turned around and said, "Okay, students, you can handle your affairs in the above ways. Of course, if you have any opinions, you can also report them to me. The school I will try my best to listen to your opinions.”

Luo Qiu nodded.

Zhang Qingrui glanced at Luo Qiu, seeing that his expression was normal, so he didn't say much.

Teacher Wang asked the two to leave, and he returned to the chair where he was working.She looked at the ball in her hand, and suddenly felt a little dazed after looking at it for a while.

Teacher Wang pinched the center of his eyebrows, turned around casually and said, "Lao He, have you seen this ball? The cabinet in the reception room... isn't there?"

Turning around completely, looking at the desk behind him, but found that there was no one here, Teacher Wang couldn't help but startled, thinking maybe he was going out to do something?
"Is everyone out?"

She looked around the office again, there were only four desks, but she was the only one there.Teacher Wang glanced at the ledger on the wall, it was four o'clock in the afternoon.

She shrugged, put the ball under the chair casually, turned on the computer, and began to concentrate on her work.

But at this moment, the ball on the ground rolled silently...and rolled out of this office.

……

……

After coming out of the teaching office, Miss Zhang seemed to be still in a trance.

She was thinking about the ball, thinking about the weird scene she had seen... She thought that she probably saw something unclean again.

Why again?

Since returning from the Catacombs, there will be more 'people' in her sight these days.

To be precise, it is some 'people' invisible to others.It seemed as if the door to a new world had suddenly opened, whether it was in his own home or on the way to Gu Yue Zhai's shop.

Not many, sometimes even two days may not be able to see one.

However, there is a situation where you are more expensive than you are, once you encounter it, you can always surprise yourself.Miss Zhang still doesn't know how these 'people' that she couldn't see before appeared in her sight.

The only thing she could think of was that she might have been possessed in the underground palace.

Zhang Qingrui looked around, fearing that the little girl with the ball would appear again, but she could only see Luo Qiu's back—Miss Zhang only realized that since she left the teaching office, she was in a trance, subconsciously following something Walked all the way from behind.

Now that I think about it, I have been walking behind them like this without making a sound... Although it is said that it is the same way down the stairs, it is still a bit embarrassing.

He probably didn't see the little girl... Ordinary people.

Zhang Qingrui took a light breath, "Luo Qiu, what are you going to do? I'm talking about the course, should I transfer to another department?"

"If you change departments, it will be more troublesome if you don't usually attend classes. If you change to a new teacher, you may not be as relaxed as the teacher."

This is the truth.

Zhang Qingrui really has no reason to refute. After all, she was also a direct beneficiary of absenteeism before making the decision to enjoy the rest of the ivory tower life.

"Let's see what the new teacher is like."

"Too."

Zhang Qingrui responded casually.

The sky outside must have completely dimmed, right?The stairs went down one floor after another, and gradually became darker.Zhang Qingrui walked with a heavy heart, and always felt that the stairs from the fifth floor to the first floor were a bit too long.

She couldn't remember how many times she had turned around, but she hadn't come to an end yet.Zhang Qingrui subconsciously looked up at the building numbers between the floors.

On the blue staircase sign, it is impressively written...the 4th floor.

Zhang Qingrui was taken aback, and instinctively grabbed the handrail of the stairs, "How many floors have we walked?"

Luo Qiu stopped at this moment, and also looked at the staircase sign that said the fourth floor, "There should be ten and a half floors."

"What?" Miss Zhang opened her lips slightly, and said in disbelief, "How is it possible... the ten and a half floors, isn't that already underground?"

"To be precise, it should be constantly walking back and forth between the fifth floor and the fourth floor." Luo Qiu turned his direction, from going downstairs to going upstairs.

"Where are you going?" Miss Zhang suddenly felt a shudder and was slightly flustered.

"Since you can't go down, then go up." Luo Qiu looked at the top of the stairs, "Perhaps the answer will be found up there."

"But... But this thing is too weird, aren't you afraid?"

"It's okay." Luo Qiu said indifferently: "You can stay here if you want, there is no need to worry about anything... Anyway, you will forget about it later."

Although it is said that hypnosis is performed on the same person multiple times, and some false memories are implanted and covered, there is a possibility that the individual may suffer from psychosis and neurosis.But if it's just the second time, it shouldn't be a big problem.

When the leader of the club was going down the stairs, he actually had this kind of plan.

Miss Zhang, who always felt the same words as if she had heard them somewhere, couldn't help but froze for a while, and when she was about to ask for clarification, she heard something.

Pop, pop, pop, pop...

At this moment, there was a loud noise in the stairwell, but an old red ball rolled down from above.The ball was bouncing up and down the stairs now and then.

Pop, pop, pop, pop...

At some point, it had already jumped in front of Zhang Qingrui.She subconsciously stretched out her hand to catch the ball.After receiving the unsinkable ball, Zhang Qingrui suddenly lost his mind for a while.

When she came back to her senses, she found that she was the only one left in this same place, on the landing where the fourth floor was written.

up and down.

unmanned.

"Luo Qiu... Luo Qiu? Are you there?"

Feeling cold hands and feet, Zhang Qingrui looked under the handrail of the stairs cautiously, but saw that the handrail seemed to be an endless spiral, and it was impossible to see the end.

She could only look up at the position upstairs, but this look made her heart almost jump out!

The little girl whose mouth was stitched shut was standing at the end of the stairs above!

She stretched out her hand, but her mouth was slightly opened, it was just stitched together, she seemed to want to say something, but she couldn't.

Zhang Qingrui instinctively took a step back.

But she was already on the stairs, and when she missed this step, her body fell down in an instant, and the world spun for a while, and she felt that her eyes suddenly went dark.

……

……

Empty stairs.

Luo Qiu also just glanced up and down, and after the ball fell, his eyes seemed to be misaligned in an instant.It is impossible for Zhang Qingrui to disappear from his sight all of a sudden.

He frowned, walked up the stairs, and walked in the corridor on the fifth floor.

The corridor was very quiet. Luo Qiu tried to open the doors of some rooms, but there was no one in each office.

At this time, a figure came out from the teaching office.

Walking out with some documents in his hand, it was Mr. Wang who had just talked.The teacher seemed very surprised when he saw Luo Qiu: "Student, is there anything else?"

On the fifth floor without people, every office is empty.However, this teacher Wang in the teaching office is still there.

Luo Qiu said: "It's nothing, it seems that something was left inside."

Teacher Wang nodded and said, "Really, come over there and look for it. I'm going to send some documents right away, and the teachers inside are all out. After you finish looking, I'm going to lock the door."

"Thank you, teacher."

Luo Qiu nodded, walked into the teaching office, took a quick look... the ball he just discovered was no longer there.

However, when he turned around, Teacher Wang was gone.

Like Zhang Qingrui, he disappeared from his side.

Luo Qiu couldn't help frowning.
