Chapter 111 Finding the Lost Student

My first reaction was to save Zhao Yuezhu. As soon as I moved, the lights in the secret room came on again.

However, the lights now illuminated the outside of the classroom. I was like an observer standing in the empty room.

The coffin behind me suddenly made a soft sound, and I clearly felt someone sit up inside. "Don't look at me, look outside!"

Qin Xin's voice came from behind me. "When you entered the classroom just now, it was exactly like back then. Look at what happened to you later. Go find the secret from that time."

I subconsciously looked outside the door and saw a teenager, about ten years old, standing in the classroom, stunned. Everyone else was shouting and running out, and the corridor was in chaos.

Several teachers ran into the classroom. The class teacher finally figured out what was going on and glanced at the teenager. "You, come to the office! Li Po, you go back to the classroom."

The teenager didn't return to the classroom. He hid by the corridor and looked towards the office.

The class teacher called a boy away first.

Qin Xin said, "Back then, you and him were the two biggest troublemakers in the class. That's why the class teacher called him first! Keep watching!"

The class teacher questioned the boy for a long time before he came out crying and stood in the corridor. Before long, there were more than a dozen people standing in the corridor, and finally, even the class monitor was there.

Soon, the class teacher called the class monitor over, who came out this time heading straight for the teenager. "Li Po, the class teacher wants to see you."

As soon as the teenager entered the office, he saw four or five teachers staring at him, as if they wanted to see something on him.

The class teacher whispered to the teacher next to him, "Did you see anything?"

"I didn't see anything. The students don't seem to be lying. Or..." The teacher hesitated. "Or, try using the Da Qian'er (ancient Chinese coin)?"

The class teacher said, "Li Po, turn around."

The teenager turned around, confused. After a while, he heard the class teacher shout "Ah!" When the teenager turned back, the class teacher's face was pale. He was sitting in his chair, sweating profusely, and a Da Qian'er was on the floor.

Several teachers helped him catch his breath before he calmed down. "Li Po, you can go now. Go back to the classroom... no, go back to the dormitory... no, I have the key to the reception room. Go there for a while."

The class teacher took the teenager to the reception room and locked the door from the outside. "Don't come out unless I call you. Someone will bring you food. Just don't come out."

The teenager sat down in the reception room, bewildered. It had a table, a bed, and a TV, but no one to talk to.

The teenager stayed in the reception room for a day and a night. The classmates who brought him food would drop it off and run away, without letting him ask a single question. He had no idea what the school planned to do with him.

On the third day, the class teacher finally came in. "Go home and stay there for a few days! Come back to school in a few days."

As the teenager walked out of the reception room, the lights suddenly went out. Qin Xin behind me said, "Back then, you brought a ghost into the classroom. We also lost a classmate. You have to bring that classmate back, or we'll all be trapped in the classroom."

As soon as Qin Xin finished speaking, I heard a sound like a house collapsing, and dazzling sunlight shone into the room from all directions.

I then realized that I was surrounded by collapsed walls. The once-sealed secret room was finally letting in light.

I was still standing in the secret room, unharmed, but Zhao Yuezhu was lying on the table.

I stepped forward and put my hand under Zhao Yuezhu's nose to check. She was still breathing; she had only fainted.

I gently moved Zhao Yuezhu's arm and saw that she was holding half of a red character written with the character *fu* (good fortune) in her left hand, and several finger-shaped bruises on her right hand.

If I wasn't mistaken, someone must have tried to grab her hand when the lights went out, and she used the *fu* character to repel them.

Before I could wake Zhao Yuezhu up, Ye Yang and Feng Ruoxing landed on the first floor one after the other. "What are you doing here?"

"We've been watching you for a long time!" Ye Yang explained what he had experienced in detail, and I couldn't help but frown.

I was silent for a moment before saying, "We must have been set up! Look around for anything else nearby."

I left Feng Ruoxing to watch over Zhao Yuezhu, and Ye Yang and I split up to search the villa. We eventually found something that looked like a Bagua mirror outside the room where Ye Yang was trapped.

The mirror was embedded under the windowsill where Ye Yang had stopped, shining diagonally on the spot where I entered. It was this mirror that completely separated the space where I was from the space where Ye Yang was.

I threw the mirror on the table. "Crazy girl, wake that little vixen up. I have something to ask her!"
