Bathed in the eyes of the classmates, Xiao Lan felt a little strange.
He has always existed in school as a student master or even a student of God. Although he had often received the attention of his classmates before, at that time, the eyes of his classmates were admired or jealous.
Unexpectedly, I can experience the treatment of rebellious academic scum now.
At this time, the classmates looked at him with curiosity mixed with a little envy. It seems that human beings are born to pay attention to the rebels and have a certain vague expectation.
Not to mention, it's cool to be a bad student occasionally...
In this way, Xiao Lan once again followed Luo to his office.
It was like a secret base for two people, Xiao Lan was already familiar with it. He casually leaned on the edge of the table, and there were teaching plans on the table, with Luo's distinct handwriting on it. It seemed that Luo, as a teacher, was more responsible than him as a student.
"Are there any gains? Sir." Luo closed the door and turned to ask Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan told him what she saw in the principal's office, especially describing Mr. Weld's situation and the content recorded in the principal's handbook.
"Curse puppet, this is something interesting." Luo sat on the chair, "We had contacted Mr. Weld up close before, but we didn't realize that he was not a living person."
Xiao Lan: "Now I plan to wait until it gets dark and go to the North Tower again. This time I must see Adeline."
Although there is a danger of Madame Red Moon when it is dark, there are still a lot of students in the school if it is not dark. Adolescent teenagers also like to drill in places where no one is there. It is easy to expose traces on the way to the tower.
Now they are two people acting together, and even if they meet Mrs. Hongyue, they are confident that they will retreat.
"I will go with you." Luo said with a smile. "But there is still some time before dark, do you want to pass the time?"
Xiao Lan was a little curious: "What do you want to do?"
Do two people really want to clean up here
You don't need to fight like this, right
Luo stretched out his hand and took out a book that Xiao Lan was very familiar with from a row of books on the desk—
The archaeological record in which Xiao Lan chose the word "Luo" to name him.
Luo gestured to Xiao Lan for the book in his hand: "I asked Lawrence to borrow this book. It's rare to come here. Would you like to read it together?"
Xiao Lan: "..."
To be honest, he is still a little vacant about the Luoyang shovel incident.
The boy Xiao Lan back then was really courageous and outrageous. If the one in front of him had a bad temper, he might have been cold as early as fifteen.
Unexpectedly, Luo really accepted the name.
Even after forgetting everything about me, I still remember it.
Luo had already opened the book in a good mood, his reading posture was very leisurely, as if the contents were very interesting.
The evening sunlight poured in from the window, shining on his perfectly contoured, non-human face, outlining a beautiful golden light, and even the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose shone with a warm and soft light in the setting sun.
Seeing this, Xiao Lan couldn't help but leaned over to look with him.
The content of the book is actually quite boring, it's all professional records and analysis, mixed with a lot of slurred technical terms.
But the two people who read the book didn't talk too much. They looked at the words in the book, and their eyes were faintly nostalgic.
The room was silent, with only a slight sound of flipping books.
One leafing through the book leisurely, one watching silently, as if there was a kind of unspeakable tacit understanding.
After a while, it finally got dark.
The pale red moonlight once again enveloped the entire college.
Luo Xiu stopped flipping through the book with his long fingers.
He looked up at the red moon outside the window, and said softly: "Sir, the time has come."
Xiao Lan also raised her head, with a bright light in her eyes: "Let's go."
The two stood up and stepped into the dangerous red field.
—
Carefully hiding their whereabouts, the two came to the northern tower again.
Today's tower is still barren.
Xiao Lan listened carefully to the movement inside, but what was strange was that today she did not hear the sound of scales rubbing against the ground, nor did she hear a child's whisper.
Everything is very quiet, as quiet as there is nothing inside.
The two found the door under the tower.
Not surprisingly, the door was locked by a heavy lock.
Unlike the barrenness of the entire tower, there was not much rust on this lock. Even when Xiao Lan opened the lock, she could feel the smoothness of the lock cylinder, as if this lock was often opened by people.
Enter the tower.
A damp and moldy breath came, and water stains and moss appeared on the surrounding walls.
The entire tower is very empty. Although the building still has a gorgeous gothic feel, there is almost no furniture inside, exuding an empty and run-down smell.
Xiao Lan turned on the [Nuclear Flashlight] to observe the surroundings.
There are two stairs in front, the more you go up, the drier the surrounding environment.
And on the stairs down, the feeling of dampness was heavy, and the surrounding moss was more than other places, as if there was some water source below.
"Sir." Luo pointed to the ground with a lot of moss growing under the feet of the two of them. "There are traces of being stepped on repeatedly. They all go down and then return. Someone should walk down from here often."
Xiao Lan followed Luo's guidance and saw that there were indeed many footprints on the ground, but because of the rapid growth of moss, most of them were covered.
It seems that the rumored monster in the tower is not only not two snakes, but it may not live inside the tower.
The campus legend is indeed full of uncertainty.
The two walked down the dark and damp stairs. The more they went, the heavier the water vapor in the air, and the tips of their noses gradually smelled the smell of fishy water.
Occasionally, the sound of dripping and flowing water can be heard.
After walking for a while, I finally reached the end of the ladder.
But the strange thing is that it's just an empty space, it looks like there is nothing, but it is filled with water vapor from unknown sources.
"Is there any mechanism?" Xiao Lan speculated.
The water vapor here is so strong that it is almost by the river, but there is no water source in sight, which is very strange.
"Leave it to me." Luo pointed his finger on the wall, and in an instant, the dark shadow spread out, searching the entire room.
Soon, he retracted his hand and walked to a brick in the corner of the room that looked no different from the surroundings.
He stretched out his hand, aimed at the edge of the brick, and pressed it down. Following his movement, the whole brick rotated, revealing a stone switch at the back.
Luo turned the switch, and in the next instant, a downward channel appeared on the originally empty ground.
This efficiency made Xiao Lan couldn't help giving him a compliment: "Every time I see you looking for clues, I think it's amazing."
Luo just smiled: "My pleasure."
Afterwards, the two entered this new passage.
The passage is narrow and cramped and can only accommodate one person. The surface is still very slippery and not easy to walk. Moreover, the passage is very long, as if walking all the way to hell.
After walking for a while, the two talents once again came to the open area.
Here is a huge and empty space, surrounded by stone walls, there is a layer of water on the ground, and there is almost no decoration inside, which looks terrible.
It turned out to be so deep here.
It's no wonder that I could only hear a faint sound outside before. Maybe it was because the monster inside was moving closer to the stairs. If it was farther away, no sound would be heard outside.
Xiao Lan's flashlight was looking for clues on the wall.
Suddenly, he saw some graffiti on a high place on the wall. The brushwork of the graffiti was immature, like a child's work.
But even an average adult couldn't reach this height. Xiao Lan scanned the surroundings and saw no tools for climbing.
How are these graffiti painted
Putting aside his doubts for a while, he looked at these graffiti.
The level is much better than Luo, at least it can be seen as a human.
On the far left is a woman in red.
The child's brushstrokes cannot express the details of the clothes, only a long and fluffy skirt can be seen, and a large tuft on the head seems to express the blackness of the hair.
The woman is surrounded by red, and the picture looks very strange.
On the other side, a figure lay not far from the woman.
He looks like a man from his clothes. He has slightly longer flax hair and a large mass of red on his chest, which symbolizes that this person has been seriously injured or even killed.
There was a childish handwriting beside it:
[Mom is crazy...]
[Mom is terrible]
Xiao Lan gestured to the woman on the left with a flashlight: "Does this look like Mrs. Hongyue?"
He moved his flashlight to the side again: "This is very similar to Mr. Weld. I saw a wound on his chest at the same position."
"So these graffiti meant to say that it was Mrs. Red Moon who killed Mr. Weld," Luo said.
Xiao Lan said: "Mrs. Red Moon is actually Mrs. Weld, but I don't know why, she herself doesn't know this, and she doesn't even remember that she killed her husband."
"If this is the case, how did Adeline die?" Xiao Lan looked at the graffiti on the wall and couldn't help frowning. "Could it be that it was also killed by the principal who was incarnate as Mrs. Hongyue?"
Luo knew that Xiao Lan was just thinking, not seeking his answer. He stood there, watching Xiao Lan's every move quietly, as if he didn't want to ignore every detail.
Xiao Lan thought of the principal who had recorded her painful struggle in the handbook. If Mrs. Weld knew that the source of all her grief and pain was her, she didn't know how she would feel.
But... who is the one who painted these
Adeline after the resurrection
If it were Adeline, what size is she now
In addition, both the rumors and the principal's handwritten notes stated that she would attack people.
It feels hard to handle.
Xiao Lan said softly, "It seems that we still have to find Adeline."
He observed his surroundings.
When the light of his flashlight was swept around, he didn't see any trace of the two-tailed snake girl.
The two walked forward, and a hole filled with water appeared in front of them.
The area of the burrow is very large, and there is no problem in accommodating several adults.
But the hole was dark, and the flashlight couldn't shine through, making it impossible to guess where it led to.
Xiao Lan retracted the flashlight: "It looks like whoever enters and who died..."
Although the player's body has been strengthened and the vitality is very tenacious, it does not mean that they can survive in the water.
This kind of dark waterway, who knows where and how long it will lead to, may even hide unknown dangers in it.
If you encounter a battle, but you don't have time to breathe, you can die peacefully.
Luo said, "Do you need me to find the way, sir?"
As a non-human who does not need to breathe, he is capable of such a job.
Although the quality of the water seemed rather sorry, if Xiao Lan hoped, he would not have any psychological barriers at all.
Xiao Lan shook her head: "What's in the water is still unknown."
He couldn't let Luo face these dangers alone, and then enjoy the other party's contribution with peace of mind.
He stepped forward and dipped a little water on the tip of his nose and sniffed: "This smell is very similar to the water stains that appear on the ceiling every morning."
So, it should be Adeline who left the prompt to the player.
Where is she going now
At this time, Luo pointed to the algae on the water and said: "According to the school teachers, this kind of algae is a very special species that grows in the lake in the college forest."
Xiao Lan turned around and asked, "There is still a lake in the forest?"
Luo smiled: "As a teacher, you can naturally know a little more."
"According to the teachers, there seems to be a lot of carnivorous wild animals in the forest outside the college. There was an unbelieving teacher who was attacked when he went for a walk at night, and he resigned not long after he escaped."
"According to the teacher's description, there is a large lake in the forest, and he has also been stained with this kind of algae."
Xiao Lan: "..."
What a people's teacher full of exploratory spirit.
He didn't even know for a moment whether he should sigh that the teacher was so hearted that he dared to go for a walk in this dark forest, or whether he should sigh that the man with his head is so hard.
This teacher can survive such a death, this teacher is also very powerful.
