When Agnes was about to turn the diary to the next page, suddenly, she felt a little blurry in front of her eyes.
How is this going
She found that her perception had become a little dull. The perception that has been maintained before is not puzzled and clear...
"I… "
She caressed her forehead with her hand, and her current state made her a little uneasy. However, she does not allow herself to make the slightest mistake, especially in this exam.
When she was young, she knew that she was destined to become an examinee in the future. And she has a natural and powerful perception ability, has the most noble blood in the family for decades, and is known as the grandmother who is likely to catch up with her back then. Although many things are still unknown about the devil's exam, one thing is certain... what this exam will bring her in the end will never be as simple as her individual gaining eternal life. Eternal immortality is what the family has longed for. Especially in the Middle East and Africa where life is no different from grass.
For her, family is everything and the meaning of her existence. Now that everyone in the family has died one by one, the only thing that keeps her alive is the idea of revitalizing the family. For her, apart from her own life, what she valued most was the surname Gerzwaren.
"I can't live up to the expectations of my family ancestors and my parents. I will definitely become a great witch like my grandmother in the future," she muttered, and then her vision finally became clearer again.
It seems... I can't stay near this teaching building any longer. Although she was very worried about Gao Ying's life and death, in the final analysis... what she values most is her own life. There was nothing shameful about it to her, what was wrong with a person who put his own life and death above anyone else's
Ten minutes later, Agnes returned to the girls' dormitory.
In the dormitory, Shi Minjing and two other female candidates lived with her. But when she went back, the two female candidates did not come back. The two girls may have died.
If you die, you die. She doesn't care about two insignificant newcomers. The only trouble is that the cannon fodder used to attract firepower when two devils attack is missing.
She sat in the empty dormitory, but she wasn't afraid at all. There was a tree just outside the window, and she could jump into it in no time. To be honest, this place is much better than the war-torn Middle East. There, is the real hell on earth.
Then, she continued to flip through the diary in front of her.
"April 1, Heisei 11
Lunyan believed that the people who poured oil in the art classroom were Yokoyama Hao's trio, but without evidence, it was useless at all.
Boye's father was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago and spent a lot of money on treatment. The reason why Bo Ye is the most rational and mature among the three of us is very important to this experience. His mother didn't quite approve of him studying art, but his father was quite supportive. In recent years, their family's financial situation has not been very good.
But to be honest, I really didn't expect that Boye's hand bone was broken this time, which greatly stimulated his father, and the cancer recurred. In the past few days, his father's condition in the hospital was very bad. Thinking of what happened to him, I lost my mind about doing anything, and my diary was cut off for a long time. I really don't know what's going to happen...
Today in the hospital, Lun Yan and I were really worried after seeing Boye's father's condition. The cancer had spread to the liver and the organ was starting to fail, maybe in a few days, the doctor said. In fact, in the past few years, Bo has always been worried that his father's cancer will recur. After all, although he had surgery back then, when the cancer was discovered, it was already in the middle stage. I don't know much about medicine, but I heard that when the tumor was first discovered, it was classified as "secondary", indicating that metastases had already occurred. Last year, Boye's father stopped chemotherapy, and it seemed that he could no longer continue chemotherapy.
It pained me to see Hiroya like that. But Lun Yan seemed to be more sad than me, he even cried more sadly than Bo. Then, I heard from Hiroya's mother that Mieko Hidaka also came to visit Hiroya's father.
Who is the person who poured oil? Although the trio is the most suspect, to be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if it was done by other boys. Although the school has been investigating, but there is really no result. And when things got so big, no one dared to take the initiative to stand up.
I swear, if you let me know who did it, I will cripple that guy's hand! I do what I say! "
While reading the diary, Agnes suddenly raised her head.
She looked towards the bedroom door.
Just now... Did the bedroom door open that wide
Maybe it's an illusion, maybe... no.
Agnes stood up, staring at the door in front of her. However, after looking at it for a long time, there was no change.
Then, she walked slowly to the door and looked outside. There was no one in the bedroom corridor. She held the diary in one hand and the examination paper in the other, and then closed the door.
She's not worried for now. Facing the situation between life and death is too much for her. Her perception temporarily told her that the devil has not come to attack yet.
She started to back up, and then continued to open the diary in her hand.
Judging from the current situation... At that time, Takashima Renyan's friend Koda Hiroshi was also bullied by Yokoyama Hao's trio, and the word "devil" appeared again and again, which reminded her of the book she saw in the library. a detailed narrative. She asked the librarian that this library had been opened when Chenglie High School was founded, so there are a lot of books in it that existed more than ten years ago. Then, back then, it was possible that Takashima Renyan had the idea of calling the devil after reading this book.
Could it be that ... the devil in the old school building came from Takashima Renyan, and Koda Hiroshi also called the devil to revenge Yokoyama Hao's trio? She had read that book, and there was one thing in particular mentioned in it. It is not difficult for the devil to invite him, but it is not easy to send him away. What's more, if you have evil thoughts in your heart, you may... call out a terrifying devil.
"Devil..." Agnes is a Westerner. Although her father is from country Z, she has learned Chinese since she was a child, but she is still very unfamiliar with the word devil. Even after reading that book, I couldn't find a way to send the devil back. Analyzing the origin of the devil should be the key to completing this exam.
She wanted to know the answer, so she continued to read the diary.
At this time, the diary is getting closer and closer to that critical day, April 12.
"April 5, Heisei 11
Attended Hiroya's father's memorial service today.
I'm so tired that I don't want to write any more details about what happened today. "
Agnes did not expect that the diary jumped directly to the memorial service of Koda Hiroya's father. Then she read on.
"April 10, Heisei 11
Next Monday is the new monthly exam.
Today is Friday. Originally, this was the happiest day of the week, but recently because of Hiroya's incident, I'm suffering. He has not been in the dormitory for the past few days. A few days ago, I accidentally found a book under his pillow. A book about the devil.
I asked Lun Yan, and Lun Yan said that he had borrowed this book before.
At that time, I suddenly asked impulsively, Lun Yan, did Bo also believe in some devil like you at that time? He wouldn't want to call the devil, would he
Lun Yan was silent. Then he said that he also felt that something was wrong with his recent blog. Maybe he really couldn't think about it. When I found the book, I found a lot of notes that seemed to be written by him, but because it was a borrowed book, he wrote it with a pencil, and it was estimated that he would erase it before returning it. But after a quick look, he seemed to really believe in the so-called devil.
Lun Yan had read that book. He was surprised when he borrowed this book from the library. The book is not a formal publication, but thinking about it, it is impossible to publish a book like this under normal circumstances. I heard that when the school first built the library, it received a large number of donations of books, and this book should be one of the donated books. Lun Yan said that when he was bullied miserably, he saw this book in the library, in which everything related to the devil was recorded in detail.
What caught his attention was that the book recorded some real people who had participated in the devil's summoning and caused unsolved mysteries. And this made him doubt the existence of the devil. "
