Chapter 26 Dormitory Four

The photo showed a girl in a pink dress in a crowd of students . She faced the camera and had an annoyed look .

“I secretly took this picture,” Xiao Ma said with shame, as he scratched his head, “I really liked her at that time . After I took the picture, I just kept it in my wallet . I wanted to throw it away, but I always forgot . ”

Ye Shaoyang did not want to make Xiao Ma look bad, so he asked, “Was she your girlfriend?”

“No, she was my cla.s.smate in the first year, and I only secretly liked her . How can someone like her like me … ” Xiao Ma’s tone had a tinge of sadness to it .

Then, Ye Shaoyang told Mr . Zhang, “Thank you for your information Mr . Zhang . I hope we meet again . ”

“Don’t forget to pay up . Interest will be charged after three days,” Mr . Zhang politely reminded Ye Shaoyang, as he slowly faded .

After he sent Mr . Zhang off, Ye Shaoyang laid on the bed and gathered his thoughts . Then, he asked Xiao Ma, “This girl, did she have a boyfriend?”

At first, Xiao Ma shook his head, but then, he nodded, “She liked to be alone . At that time, I would often follow her around … . ”

When Xiao Ma saw the strange looks the two of them were giving him, he quickly explained, “Don’t be mistaken, okay . I never did anything to her and only watched her . She often went walking alone . Sometimes, I would see her seemingly talking to someone, but no one was beside her . So, I always had a feeling that she had some mental issues, but she would act very normal around other people . When I spoke to her roommates, they all said that they thought she had a boyfriend . But no one has seen her boyfriend . ”

Xiao Ma’s story further verified Ye Shaoyang’s suspicions, so he nodded and said, “If I’m not wrong, that boyfriend she had was the specter . ”

“What?!” This conjecture shocked Xiao Ma, “Isn’t he a ghost? I mean a specter . How can Chen Lin be in a relations.h.i.+p with a specter?”

Ye Shaoyang replied, “This also confuses me . Why would she fall for a specter and not you? But from what you’ve said, it seems like she wasn’t talking to herself but talking with the specter . Normally, specters won’t let you see them, unless they want you to . ”

Then, Xiao Ma asked, “Wait, maybe the specter is angry at me? But Chen Lin committed suicide, that has nothing to with me . Also, such a long time has pa.s.sed, so why is the specter messing with me now?”

“Maybe the specter just wants to reunite with her,” said Ye Shaoyang . Then, he pointed at the photo, “Don’t forget, this specter can go into paintings . A photo is also an image . ”

“But why is he trying to kill me?” Xiao Ma asked .

Spontaneously, Xiao Ma’s phone started to ring . They all stopped as Xiao Ma picked up the phone and asked, “Li Duo? Why are you calling me at this hour?” After this first question, Xiao Ma did not speak . His expressions became more and more worried . Before he ended the call, he said, “No problem, Little Ye will come and help . You guys just hold on for a bit more!”

He put down the phone and said, “Little Ye, we need to go, something big has happened!”

“What happened?” Ye Shaoyang asked .

“Li Duo, his girlfriend, and some other girls went to dormitory four to play the Ouija board . But now, they say that there are spirits there, and they want you to help!”

These words shocked Ye Shaoyang, “Why are they looking for me? How did they find out about my abilities?”

“I told him . Didn’t he mistake you for a pervert in the afternoon? So, I called him and explained to him what you did and who you were . At first, he didn’t believe me, but I guess he has no other choice now . Let’s go already . If we are late, someone might die!” Xiao Ma pulled Ye Shaoyang along and rushed down the stairs . Old Guo also came along .

“How can an Ouija board be that bad?” Ye Shaoyang was still in a state of disbelief . Even though the Ouija board had the ability to summon spirits if done correctly, it would never cause someone to immediately die . Then, Xiao Ma replied, “You have no idea how bad that place is . Many have died in dormitory four . Every two to three years, someone would commit suicide there . Worse yet, all of them had jumped from room 404 . That was also how Chen Lin had died . Li Duo and the others are either really brave or really really dumb for going there!”

Then, Ye Shaoyang thought, What interesting coincidences .

“This is really bad,” said Old Guo, as he looked at Ye Shaoyang, “dormitory four is one of the most haunted places in the whole of Stone City . This building has a very long history and is at least from the early 20th century . The number of people who have died in there must be in the hundreds!”

As they drove to the school, Ye Shaoyang asked them to tell him the complete history of the place . Old Guo organized his thoughts and slowly explained, “The j.a.panese made that building during their invasion . It was a hospital they built to take care of the wounded j.a.panese soldiers . When the Chinese army took back Stone City, they instructed the j.a.panese in the hospital to surrender . However, the j.a.panese did not surrender . Instead, they all took their own lives .

“From what I’ve heard, the Chinese army wanted to forcefully take the building . As a result, many of the people were in a rush and could not find swords to perform Seppuku . So, many of them jumped off the building or cut their throats with scalpels to take their own lives . Some even doused themselves with rubbing alcohol and burned themselves … f*ck, that kind of pain must have been crazy! Not long after, that place began to become haunted . I’ve never personally heard of it, but people say cries can be heard from there at night . ”

After he heard this story, Ye Shaoyang became really shocked . A place where so many people had died would have a very concentrated Yin Qi . If no one transcends them or suppresses the energy, a spirit nest would form sooner or later!

“So, what happened next? No one did anything?” Ye Shaoyang asked .

“At first, the government did not believe in such hocus pocus, so they sent an investigation team into the building, but … soon after, all the officers died without any obvious reasons . ”

Then, Old Guo let out a sigh and said, “After what happened to the officers, the news of the place got out . The government had no choice but to secretly hire a few sorcerers to deal with it . Unfortunately, every single one of them died horribly inside the building . The government once thought of blowing up the building to be done with it, but the sorcerers warned them . If the spirits had no place to reside, they would roam and terrorize other areas . ”

Ye Shaoyang nodded in agreement .

“After that, the government just sealed up the building to prevent people from going in . But once in awhile, people would still die in that area . In the end, a very powerful monk that came from either Mount Wutai or Mount Jiuhua sacrificed himself and sealed up the whole building . ”

“How did he seal it up?” Ye Shaoyang asked curiously . After all, sealing a whole building filled with old spirits and a spirit nest was a very difficult task .

Old Guo shook his head and said, “I’m not sure about that . Everything I know came from Captain Zhang of the police department . He said he got the information from old doc.u.ments, so I believe these things must be real . ”

After Old Guo finished the story, Ye Shaoyang felt shocked that such an evil place could exist in Stone City . Ye Shaoyang could not even start to imagine how stupid Li Duo and the others must have been to go into such a dangerous place to play Ouija board . Even sorcerers would try to avoid such a place . Ye Shaoyang could only hope for the best, as they rushed over .
