This scene is a timeless plot in horror movies.
The next second, a little boy or student will appear and ask in a clear voice: "Big brother, can you help me pick up the ball?"
Then the protagonist of the horror movie bends down and picks up the ball...
Oh no, it's over.
The ghost would definitely say, "Hehe, brother, come and play with me~~" and then forcibly drag the protagonist to start playing the game, the kind where you die if you lose.
Lu Yingjiu has seen this trick many times before.
Every time I am too lazy to think about it, I just pick up the ball and play with them, and it is even better to force the ghosts to show their true colors.
This time, we will do the same.
Just as he bent down to pick up the basketball, Jing Xian got there first and took it.
Road to welcome wine:
Jing Xian shook the basketball in his hand, and then the basketball spun on his index finger, steady and light. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why, isn't this cool? When can we play basketball together?"
Lu Yingjiu: "... Please don't play with haunted items, thank you."
Jing Xian complained: "We only had a great time at the amusement park, and we haven't had any other dates."
"Okay, okay, let's go on a date once this matter is resolved. We can go wherever you want." Lu Yingjiu said, "Give me the basketball first."
He reached out to grab the basketball from Jingxian's hand, but Jingxian stretched his hand upwards and took advantage of his height advantage to let him grab nothing.
Jing Xian took the opportunity to hug her and said, "Just give me a kiss and I'll give it to you."
Lu Yingjiu: "Cheers, you are not even as good as a high school student."
Jing Xian: “Hmm.”
Instead of feeling ashamed, feel honored.
Lu Yingjiu was speechless.
Half a second later, while Jing Xian was letting his guard down, he suddenly took a small step sideways, raised his hand and took the basketball from Jing Xian's hand, holding it steadily!
Then he turned around and said, "You still lack practical skills. Is this your first time touching a basketball? With that posture, others can easily grab the ball." After saying that, he also tumbled the basketball and said with a smile, "I also dribbled the ball in middle school."
Jing Xian had the ball snatched away by someone, but he didn't feel any regret. He said that we should play the ball together, and it just happened that he could teach me.
Then he came up to her with a sly look on his face and asked for a kiss, but Lu Yingjiu flatly refused, saying that he was concentrating on supernatural cases.
Jing Xian said, "It's just a kid, give me the basketball and I'll help you find it."
"Really?" Lu Yingjiu was skeptical.
"real."
Lu Yingjiu returned the basketball to him.
Jingxian held the basketball and looked towards the end of the corridor.
The end of the corridor was still empty, with only a dilapidated classroom and bright sunshine.
Jingxian looked towards a corner.
Then he threw the ball carelessly.
—This “carelessness” is only on the surface.
When the basketball flew out, there was a sharp sound of breaking wind!
The glass in the corridor was vibrated by the strong wind it brought, almost shattering, and the curtains swayed like a typhoon passing through. Lu Yingjiu had no doubt that the ball could smash a big hole in the wall, or directly break a person's neck!
"Bang!"
"Ouch!!"
This ball really hit someone!
A faint shadow appeared at the end of the corridor. It looked like a high school boy. He covered his head that was hit by the ball, gnashed his teeth, and shouted, "Why are you throwing the ball like that? Aren't you afraid of killing someone?"
Lu Yingjiu said in his heart, there is nothing to be afraid of, there is no shadow at all.
Besides, if an ordinary person gets hit like this, he will be half-dead at least. How can he be as energetic as you
The high school student touched his head again, glared at Jing Xian fiercely, and ran away with the basketball.
The entire corridor fell silent again.
Jing Xian said: "Look, this has revealed the truth."
"It's too violent..." Lu Yingjiu held his forehead with his hand, "No matter what, the ghosts here are indeed students from that year."
Just as he was about to drag Jing Xian to continue looking for the high school student, he heard a noise coming from downstairs.
The voice came from the school entrance. Lu Yingjiu looked out from the corridor and saw Yao Gou grabbing a stranger tightly, and the two of them were arguing with each other!
Lu Yingjiu slapped a piece of talisman paper on his forehead, and his body suddenly became light, and he jumped over the corridor railing and down.
The height of the 4th floor may seem scary, but it is nothing to me.
It seemed like it didn't weigh much and landed lightly on the ground, then quickly came to me.
When Yao Gou saw him, his eyes lit up: "Hey, come here quickly! I caught a thief!"
The strange man yelled: "Damn it, I'm not a thief!"
"Otherwise you're sneaking around and looking at our car!" Yao Gou glared, "Don't try to lie in front of Master Dog!"
The two men were fighting each other again.
Lu Yingjiu pinched his hand, and a piece of talisman paper flew out lightly and stuck to the stranger's back.
The man suddenly lost his strength and was immediately restrained by Yao Gou.
Yao Gou panted heavily: "I'll let that kid go crazy!"
The man cursed: "Fuck it!"
"What happened to my mom!"
"Fuck..." The man seemed to want to curse "Fuck, fuck!", but he held it back. He cursed for a long time, "Fuck, the price of vegetables will definitely go up!"
Yao Gou was shocked: "Fuck! This kid is so vicious! Aren't you afraid that you won't have toilet paper in the future?!"
Seeing that the argument was going in a meaningless direction, Lu Yingjiu quickly interrupted: "Stop, everyone stop. Yao Gou, can you tell me what happened?"
Yao Gou then stopped and panted, "Oh, please stop talking! I was waiting for the padlock to melt, but I felt a chill on my back, as if someone was staring at me."
"I looked back and saw this guy hiding behind our car. He must be a car thief who came to steal our luxury cars after seeing them!"
"Bullshit!" The man's neck turned red. "I was just looking at the car! Who looked at the car?! Who stole the car?! I haven't even told you guys what you were doing sneaking into the school and burning the lock on the big car!"
"We are just doing our job!" Yao Gou glared, "What are you doing here in this remote place for no reason?"
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Lu Yingjiu interrupted them in time, looked at the man and said, "So, I just want to see why we have to go into the school?"
"Yes!" The man's tone did not sound fake. It was mixed with anger, grievance, and suspicion of them.
Lu Yingjiu rubbed her brows and hooked her fingers, and the talisman paper stuck on the man's back automatically fell off.
The opponent recovered his strength and immediately shook off Yao Gou, stepped back several steps, and rubbed his aching wrist.
said to Yao Gou fiercely: "This is my alma mater, why can't I come back to take a look?"
Lu Yingjiu raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, "Are you a student here?"
"Yes." The man said indignantly, "So the suspicious ones are you."
Lu Yingjiu said, "You don't know that this place is haunted, do you?"
The man was stunned.
Lu Yingjiu said again: "Let's go back first and don't go into the campus. We can talk about it when it's safe here."
The man was still stunned. After a long while, he said, "Wait, you are exorcists, right?"
Lu Yingjiu nodded.
The man suddenly showed a bit of surprise and said, "So, then we are here, did we really see a ghost?"
This attitude is quite strange and hard to understand.
"Yes, I saw it." Lu Yingjiu said, thinking that the man seemed quite expectant. "I'm not sure if they are aggressive, so please leave first."
The man rubbed his hands and said, "Actually, actually, I came back here specifically to look for ghosts."
Lu Yingjiu: “Hmm?”
The man looked at Lu Yingjiu and Yao Gou again, and seemed to be thinking whether he should tell them everything.
Although Yao Gou and Xu had just finished a fight, there was always a trustworthy feeling in Lu Yingjiu's heart.
Just looking at those brown eyes, calm and gentle, can make people feel at ease.
So he spoke up: "Since you are here, you should know... you should know that something happened in a class in this school before, right?"
What I'm talking about must be the incident of the school bus falling into the sea.
"I know." Lu Yingjiu nodded.
The man said, "My name is Wu Runzhi, and I..." He paused for a few seconds before mustering up the courage to say, "I am the only survivor in that class."
Lu Yingjiu was slightly surprised.
But Wu Runzhi took a half step towards him and continued, "I came here today because I have been having strange dreams recently and I have consulted many exorcists but none of them can solve them."
"What was the dream about?" Lu Yingjiu asked.
"It's about school," Wu Runzhi said. "I always dream that I'm back in my senior year of high school, attending classes with my classmates."
Yao Gou muttered: "It's not strange to dream about the past. I often dream about the time when I was as thin as a lightning bolt."
Wu Runzhi glared at him and continued to talk to Lu Yingjiu: "I didn't find it strange at first. I thought it was because I was under a lot of work pressure and was nervous."
"But this dream lasted for three months, and it was very clear. I even remembered exactly what the teacher wrote on the blackboard and what my deskmate said, as if... it was something that really happened."
"Other exorcists didn't help me find out anything either. They said that maybe I had a knot in my heart and suggested that I come back here to have another look."
Lu Yingjiu asked: "So you came back?"
"Yes," Wu Runzhi nodded, "I'm actually working in another city, and I'm very busy, so I basically don't have time. I've been hesitating for a long time, but what really prompted me to come back was the dream I had the day before yesterday."
The night before yesterday, I dreamed of my senior year class again.
The sun shone brightly from the window, illuminating the curtains and the podium. The teacher was explaining the key points of the exam, and the students below were writing furiously, eating snacks secretly, or slacking off and staring blankly at the green playground.
In his dream, Wu Runzhi was also writing notes. Various chemical formulas confused his head, and he was drowsy. Sodium hydroxide was singing in his ears, and potassium permanganate was dancing around him.
As I was writing, someone pushed me.
I looked to the left and my good brother raised an eyebrow at me and whispered, "Do you want to play basketball after class?"
"The mock exam is tomorrow, are you still taking it?" Wu Runzhi whispered, "Aren't you afraid of being criticized by the teacher?"
"The weather is so good, it would be a pity if it is not used."
"No."
"Let's go. I'll treat you to a Coke."
Wu Runzhi: "...Okay, I'll go after class."
The brother laughed so hard that his mouth almost stretched to his ears. He patted my shoulder and teased me, "Your position is not firm..."
Wu Runzhi also smiled, turned his head, and saw the student on the right again.
The student's name is Jiang Ruoyun.
Wu Runzhi had been secretly in love with her for a long time, but he never dared to say it out loud.
Jiang Ruoyun twirled the pen in her hand, brushed the hair by her ears, and smiled with curved eyes.
A ray of sunlight just happened to fall on the side of her face, swaying with the swing of the curtains, so bright that Wu Runzhi's heart was moved.
Jiang Ruoyun said with a smile: "It's been so long, why haven't you come back to see us yet?"
Wu Runzhi was suddenly startled.
Then, the dream ended.
Wu Runzhi and Lu Yingjiu said, "I think those dreams must have urged me to come back and see you." He pointed to the street corner and said, "I brought flowers and fruits. If this fat guy hadn't stopped me, I would have put them out long ago."
Yao Gou was still indignant: "I'm not fat! I'm strong!"
Wu Runzhi glared at him again, then really took back the flowers and fruits from the street corner and placed them at the entrance of the school.
He said: "Since you said there are ghosts, it means that they really are sending me dreams."
"Yes," Lu Yingjiu nodded, "I have a good guess."
"So what should I do now?" Wu Runzhi asked, "Should I go back to the classroom to find you? Will you be in the same classroom as before?"
"Okay." Lu Yingjiu said, "But I must remind you that ghosts often cannot control themselves. Even if they have no ill intentions towards you, they may hurt you unintentionally. In principle, we will not encourage people who don't know how to exorcise ghosts to get close to ghosts like this."
He paused and said: "Of course, this situation depends on your thoughts."
Wu Runzhi said, "It's okay, I'm mentally prepared." He rubbed his face and smiled complicatedly, "Maybe I don't really believe that you will hurt me. We have a good relationship in the class. Since the incident, I have been thinking about you..."
Just as they were talking, Chu Banyang also came down.
Lu Yingjiu explained the situation to Chu Banyang, who nodded slightly and said to Wu Runzhi, "Then let's go in."
So Wu Runzhi followed them and entered the campus with trepidation.
She pointed to the teaching building in front of her and said, "I'm in Class 2, it's in this building."
Lu Yingjiu said, "We just encountered a ghost here."
"Well, it must be them..." Wu Runzhi murmured.
When they reached the stairwell, Wu Runzhi climbed up the railing.
Yao Gou suddenly exclaimed, "Huh?!"
The railing was covered in dust and was broken at the end with sharp edges.
But as soon as Wu Runzhi put his hand on it, the dust disappeared quickly, the broken end became smooth, and countless tiny metal fragments flew back to fill the gap.
The railings quickly became brand new, reflecting the light and sparkling.
"Oh my god!" Yao Gou exclaimed, "This hand is a bit magical, how can things be healed just by touching them! It's like a miracle hand that can bring people back to life!"
Wu Runzhi was also surprised.
He put his hand on the wall again, and the broken wall was renovated at a speed visible to the naked eye. The damaged parts were repaired, and the entire light brown color became bright. The ceiling also became beautiful, a piece of snow-white.
Lu Yingjiu felt that as Wu Runzhi stepped into the teaching building, a thick shadow swept up, covering the entire campus and dragging all of them into it.
It can be said that this is no longer the normal world.
Those ghosts were indeed waiting for Wu Runzhi.
Moreover, there were more than twenty ghosts gathered together, with great power, and they even created an illusion directly.
Wu Runzhi felt a little scared, but also a kind of indescribable joy. After confirming with them again and again, he continued to walk upstairs.
With every step you take, everything around you is being renovated and becoming bright and beautiful.
The railings have been repaired and the walls are free of dust.
The classroom glass was clear and transparent, the desks and chairs were neatly arranged, and boxes of colored chalk were piled on the podium. The spider webs on the signboards had peeled off, and the handwriting was clear. The soil of the flowerbed in the corridor was wet, and flowers appeared out of thin air, slowly blooming, delicate and beautiful.
The notice board was repaired, with notices written in black and white. The names of the students were listed on the scoreboard, with large colorful words on the side: "Good luck on the exam!"
Everything is slowly returning to more than ten years ago.
Back to the days when there were still students laughing and playing in the corridors.
Wu Runzhi looked surprised and deeply touched.
These scenes must have evoked many memories for me.
When we arrived at the 4th floor, the entire teaching building had been completely renovated.
There was a faint sound of human voices.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
When he heard the sound of basketball, Wu Runzhi turned around suddenly.
The high school boy just now was holding the ball, staring blankly at me. There were beads of sweat on his face and neck, and it was obvious that he had just come back from playing ball in the playground.
At this moment, Wu Runzhi burst into tears and cried out, "Fang Yu!"
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, then walked over quickly, put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Hey! Your sick leave is finally over. We're going to have a mock exam tomorrow! I still haven't finished more than a dozen papers."
Wu Runzhi was stunned.
Lu Yingjiu looked into the classroom and saw that the calendar stopped at March 21st.
It seems that the entire campus has returned to a certain point in the past.
Fang Yu didn't know that he was dead.
It seemed that life was normal. Wu Runzhi had taken a sick leave and finally came back.
Before Wu Runzhi could say anything, a sharp ring rang!
"Ding-ling-ling—Ding-ling-ling—"
It's time for class.
Fang Yu pushed Xiao and said, "Hurry up, hurry up!" Then he took Xiao to the classroom at the end of the corridor.
Wu Runzhi was still in shock, his lips trembling and he couldn't speak, but he didn't resist and just followed him.
Lu Yingjiu and Jing Xian looked at each other, then followed with the others.
The closer you get to Class 2's classroom, the more noisy the sounds become.
There were conversations, laughter, and the harsh rubbing sound of pulling chairs...
Standing at the entrance of the classroom, I saw that it was packed with students. Books and test papers were piled high on the desks, and the blackboard was wet from having just been wiped with a rag.
Wu Runzhi sat in his previous seat, staring blankly at everything around him.
It’s been so many years, it feels like a lifetime ago.
All my friends were sitting quietly beside me.
It seemed as if all these years had never passed, and I was still a senior high school student, complaining about the cafeteria, preparing for exams, and waiting for a basketball game after school.
At this moment, for all of us, tomorrow is promising.
If that tragedy had never happened...
“Boom boom boom!”
The sound of high heels was heard, and Lu Yingjiu turned around.
A teacher with short hair came over, wearing a small suit, and adjusted his glasses: "We are..."
Before Lu Yingjiu could say anything, Yao Gou spoke up: "Teacher! We are new students!"
Lu Yingjiu: “…”
I don't believe this ghost.
The teacher nodded: "Oh, so you are new students. Your seats are at the very end. Go and sit down quickly. Class is about to start."
Lu Yingjiu: “…?”
Is this ok
Yao Gou's nonsense actually worked in the ghost field, which showed that he was gifted.
Looking towards the back of the classroom, there were indeed four vacant seats.
The four of them looked at each other.
Finally, Lu Yingjiu looked at Wu Runzhi, who was in tears, and sighed, saying, "Let's see what happens first."
After saying that, he walked to a seat first, and Jing Xian followed closely behind him and immediately took his seat at the same table with him.
Chu Banyang was a little reluctant. After sitting down, he said to Lu Yingjiu, "This is a waste of time. There is no need to act out this with the ghost. In the final analysis, this is only Wu Runzhi's past. We don't need to get involved."
"Let's take a look first." Lu Yingjiu propped his head on the table, "Didn't they say Chu Qianju taught here? If this is an illusion, maybe I can see him."
Chu Banyang was stunned.
I wanted to say something, but I didn't open my mouth. In the end, I just said, "What a waste of time, so inefficient..."
Yao Gou was very interested and not afraid, looking around.
The teacher stood on the podium and knocked on it with a ruler: "Quiet, quiet! Class is about to start!"
The noisy students finally quieted down.
The teacher looked around and said, "Today is the day for us to elect class leaders. Remember, only students with both good character and good academic performance can be qualified for this position."
Not sure if it was Lu Yingjiu’s illusion, but Chu Banyang sat up a little straighter.
The teacher quickly wrote a few lines on the blackboard and said, "First, the cultural and entertainment committee member."
Several students went on stage to give speeches.
As they were talking, Wu Runzhi in the audience was crying. It was quite a strange scene.
Then comes the voting.
Everyone tore off a small piece of paper, wrote their name on it, and then folded it and placed it on the podium.
Lu Yingjiu didn't know these ghosts, so he wrote a name at random. Then he saw Jing Xian peeking over, trying to see the name he wrote.
Lu Yingjiu pushed him away and said, "Do you understand what confidentiality means?"
"I want to vote with someone." Jing Xian said.
"What's the difference?"
"I want to vote with someone." Jing Xian said.
Lu Yingjiu: “…”
He unfolded the note, glanced at it quickly, and closed it again.
Jing Xian got what he wanted and wrote the same name as .
The same thing happened to the sports committee member, life committee member, physics class representative, and chemistry class representative.
Lu Yingjiu thought as he wrote, Xi and Jing Xian were simply destroying the balance.
Chu Banyang next to him still frowned slightly.
After all, there are only a few exorcists like Lu Yingjiu who have the patience to listen to ghost stories. Young Master Chu really disdains and has no patience to play house with ghosts. For him, efficiency comes first.
Then, the teacher said, "Let's look at the study committee member. I have said before that the study committee member is different from other positions. There are academic requirements. Only when the grades are good can they motivate other students to work hard, right..."
She spoke a lot, and finally said: "The study committee member is the top priority. As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. He/she should take the heaviest responsibility. Which student is willing to be the leader of our class?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud "crash".
Chu Banyang stood up suddenly: "Teacher, I am willing."
