The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Chapter 26 [Scarlet Maple Leaf 7-The Mystery of the Curse]

The scene where Ying Xiaoya fell from the building was quickly cleaned up, and the other classes also ended normally.Hungry students came out of the teaching building in single file, all with doubts on their faces, gathered together in twos and threes to discuss——

"What happened?"

"The car that just drove out of the school seems to be a police car? Could it be that the police came to the door?"

"Is it a problem with class 3? I saw that they were playing on the basketball court in this class, and Yu Hui and Xie Xinghe seemed to be fighting."

"Yu Hui and Xie Xinghe have always been at odds, right? I heard from Class 3 that they often quarrel."

"This monthly exam, Xie Xinghe is No. 1 in the whole grade again. I really don't know what his brain is made of."

"Mathematics is so difficult, he actually got a full score in the test, and he got 295 in the comprehensive test of science. It's a monster!"

Fenglin High School is a day school, and there is no student canteen in the school.

School ends at 12:00 in the morning and class starts at 14:30 in the afternoon. There is a two-and-a-half-hour break at noon. Most of the students walk home to eat, and some students who are a little farther away rush out of the school gate on bicycles. The class teacher stayed in the classroom for nearly an hour, and the lunch time was very tight.

In a blink of an eye, the students left the school, and the campus became quiet.

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou hid near the school gate, listening to the discussions of the students coming and going.Yu Hui and Xie Xinghe are obviously the influential figures in this school, and the relationship between the two is not good, which is also known to the students.

13: 30.

Yu Hui, Xie Xinghe and Yi Ru walked to the school gate one after another.

Xie Xinghe quickly caught up with Yu Hui, and said, "Don't be too sad about Xiaoya..."

Yu Hui turned back and stared at him, his eyes were bloodshot: "Don't cry like a cat and pretend to be merciful! If you didn't deliberately hit me when you were playing ball, Xiaoya wouldn't have disappeared under my nose!"

Xie Xinghe frowned, clenched his hands into fists by his sides: "Sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."

Yi Ru passed by the two of them, turning a blind eye to their quarrel.

The girl seemed to be out of her body, with a dull expression on her face, and her walking posture was like a robot that had lost the ability to think.Yu Hui grabbed her and said, "Xiaoya left with you, what did you say to her?"

He is now like a mad dog, biting anyone he sees.Yi Ru was taken aback, and said with a pale face and trembling, "She asked me to buy food, and didn't say anything else... I don't know why she committed suicide by jumping off the building. Her expression was normal at that time..."

Yu Hui shouted: "Shut up! She won't commit suicide, there must be a reason, did you push her downstairs?!"

Yi Ru took a step back in horror: "Yu Hui, what nonsense are you talking about..."

Yu Hui said: "You have a crush on Xie Xinghe, but Xie Xinghe likes Xiaoya more, are you jealous of her?!"

Xie Xinghe stopped Yu Hui with a sullen face: "That's enough, can you stop talking nonsense? Yi Ru and Xiaoya have such a good relationship, how could they do such a thing?! This afternoon you ask for leave to go home, calm down and wait for adjustments Alright, come back to class."

Yu Hui gave him a hard look, then turned and left with red eyes.

Xie Xinghe glanced at Yiru's ugly face, and said, "You should also ask for leave and have a good rest. I'll tell the head teacher."

Yi Ru nodded: "Thank you monitor..."

The three walked out of the school gate one after the other.Since the story of the chamber of secrets started, the challenger's activity area was limited to Fenglin High School, unable to chase out of the school, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang could only turn around and leave.

During the lunch break, the campus was surprisingly quiet.

There was still an hour before the afternoon class, and Xiao Lou's stomach was growling. He suddenly remembered that he hadn't eaten since he came to the card world, and he had a makeshift sleep at the stairs last night. Now Really tired and hungry.

Seeing that Yu Hanjiang was frowning and seemed to be lost in thought, Xiao Lou couldn't help reminding: "Captain Yu, why don't we have something to eat first? This case won't be over today. If you don't eat, you won't have the energy to continue collecting evidence at night."

Yu Hanjiang nodded, and walked into the canteen with Xiao Lou.

They couldn't get out of the school gate, and the gold coins they earned in the Plum Blossom Chamber could only be spent at the canteen.

The owner of the canteen is a middle-aged woman. Seeing the two unfamiliar faces, Xiao Lou smiled at Yu Hanjiang calmly and said, "Mr. Yu, what do you want to eat?"

Yu Hanjiang reached out and took a bucket of instant noodles, two ham sausages, and two marinated eggs from the shelf, put them on the table, and said, "This is enough for me."

Xiao Lou, who only took a pack of instant noodles: "..."

Team Yu is nearly 1.9 meters tall and has a strong physique. It is normal for him to eat a lot.

The items in the commissary were ridiculously expensive, and the food added up to 1400 gold coins.

Xiao Lou felt a little pained, and took out two 1000 denomination gold coins from his pocket to pay, and asked, "Do you have hot water here? Can you soak it for us?"

The shopkeeper said: "Yes, the two teachers will wait a moment."

She brought a hot water bottle for the two of them to soak in, and gave Xiao Lou 600 gold coins in change.

Yu Hanjiang suddenly asked: "Boss, do you have a flashlight?"

Shopkeeper: "Yes, 300 gold coins."

Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou with inquiring eyes: "How about buying two flashlights with the change?"

Currently Xiao Lou is in charge of the accounts, and Yu Hanjiang has to ask Xiao Lou first if he wants to spend money.Of course, the purpose of buying a flashlight is to facilitate nighttime activities, so Xiao Lou had no choice but to hand back the 600 gold coins that the shop owner gave him, and said with a smile, "Give us two flashlights."

There are only 17 gold coins in my pocket, and I spent 2 of them in one lunch... How will I live in the future?

After pouring hot water, the two sat down beside Fenglin with their faces in their hands, chatting while eating.

Xiao Lou said with a headache: "The price of the card world is really high enough, 2000 gold coins can only buy this little thing, it feels like 20 yuan in the real world, we only have 15 gold coins left, we need to save some in the future flower."

Yu Hanjiang glanced at Xiao Lou, who was serious about settling accounts, and echoed, "Okay, save some money." Then, he looked at the unopened ham sausages and marinated eggs in his hand, and put one of the ham sausages and one marinated egg Open it up and put it into Xiao Lou's bowl: "You should eat more too."

Xiao Lou couldn't laugh or cry.

He can cook, and usually eats in the school staff canteen, or cooks by himself at home. In the real world, he never eats fried food like instant noodles.But now, bubble noodles are already considered a luxury for the two of them - they will not be able to afford a few more meals, which is really miserable.

Xiao Lou was silent for a moment, and said with emotion: "Let's make more money in the Plum Blossom Chamber in the future."

Yu Hanjiang: "...um."

The two poor ghosts looked at each other and silently lowered their heads to eat instant noodles.

**

At 14:00 in the afternoon, the two got up and went back to the teaching building.

Students returned to school one after another, and Fenglin High School resumed normal order.

As the class bell rang, the teachers came to their respective classes through the air corridor. Only Class 3 ([-]) was shrouded in a hazy atmosphere. The seats of Yu Hui and Yi Ru were all empty, and they asked for leave and went home.Class monitor Xie Xinghe is still in the classroom.

The afternoon classes are Chinese, Biology, Mathematics, but the class teacher Chinese teacher is obviously not in the mood for class, he stands on the podium, rubbing his temples with a tired expression and said: "This class is self-study."

In the audience, the students were still reading quietly at first, but gradually, they realized that the head teacher was in a daze on his own and didn't care about everyone. A few girls sitting in the back row began to secretly pass notes.

They didn't know what they wrote on the note, and they looked terrified. When they threw it forward, they deviated from the direction and accidentally threw it on the ground, alarming the class teacher on the podium.

The homeroom teacher frowned and picked up the note, glanced at it, and his face suddenly changed: "Don't believe these nonsense! What ghosts are killing people, ghosts are floating around, and someone is talking nonsense, let me run ten laps on the playground! "

Several girls turned pale with fright, and immediately lowered their heads to lower their sense of presence.

The head teacher walked out of the classroom, crumpled the note into a ball, and threw it into the trash can in the corridor.

Yu Hanjiang quickly turned around and picked up the note, walked to the corner, unfolded it and read it with Xiao Lou——

A few lines were written on the note, which was scrawled.

"Do you think Ying Xiaoya was cursed for jumping off the building?"

"It's possible that the location of our school used to be a place where prisoners were shot, and many people died here. It is said that some students heard strange crying when they passed by the school in the middle of the night!"

"After the exam last week, I came home late. I saw ghosts floating in the maple forest. It scared me to death!"

"Could it be that a wronged soul is taking his life?"

"It is said that the 18th birthday in the school will be cursed. In the year when Fenglin High School was first built, didn't there be a girl who left a suicide note and jumped off the building on her 18th birthday? Xiaoya is 18 today, what a coincidence Alright..."

"It seems that there were still people missing a few years ago!"

"Could it be that the unjust dead ghost is cursing our school?"

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other.

Curse, the key word finally appeared.
