He started to behave like a human being.
He raised a trembling hand, and under the threat of death, he endured the pain in his body and struggled to get up. He finally took a step forward and led the way for Xiao Yexiao.
Xiao Yexiao looked at the blood-colored paper man that was only ten centimeters in size on the ground with a deep look in his eyes.
Since entering the school, she has now recovered a total of 87 forms.
Except for the supernatural being corresponding to the [Room that cannot be opened], all the supernatural beings that Sakurai marked for her have been collected.
But there was no clue about the guys that Sakurai mentioned who died before the school was built.
Or, those people did not become spirits at all but passed away directly.
Either...
In short, after arriving at the location of the strange story in the room that could not be opened, all the unknowns became clear.
He nodded to himself and pinched the polar bear doll in his arms hard.
Xiao Yexiao cheered himself up in his heart.
Even if you are aware of it, you are also prepared.
She will still be afraid if she has to be afraid.
What if he encountered an enemy that even Chi Ran Ji couldn't defeat, what if Chi Ran Ji gave up and died together with him, what if Sakurai didn't have time to come and save him.
What if I really die like this.
Since entering this school, Xiao Yexiao has been worried about these things every moment.
She is really scared.
She is only seven years old now, but she is already bearing pressures that shouldn't be borne by a person of this age. She...
Really scared.
But as expected, compared to these fears, I still want to protect my parents more.
I want to go to an amusement park with my parents.
so...
She will never stop until she defeats the life called [Death].
This is Xiao Yexiao’s belief and awareness.
25. Principal's Office
Now back to the topic, Xiao Yexiao is looking forward to what kind of [supernatural] things he will encounter next.
However, before Xiao Yexiao could raise his head.
The body of the red paper man who was leading the way in front of Xiao Yexiao suddenly underwent an unnatural deformation.
It swelled, then tore apart, and finally turned into confetti all over the sky and disappeared.
In Xiao Yexiao's eyes, it was clear that the sudden appearance of black gas cut and then tore the paper man's body.
Including the supernatural things inside.
The black gas that appeared out of nowhere disappeared again in the next second.
Is there anything coming?
Pulling out the crowbar from his combat uniform, Xiao Yexiao stared ahead with bated breath, alertly waiting for the attack that might come at any time.
Buckle, buckle, buckle, buckle.
There was a rhythmic, unhurried knock on the door.
It seems to be behind Xiao Ye Xiao, and yet it seems to be everywhere.
Relying solely on hearing, Xiao Yexiao had no way of confirming where the knocking sound came from.
Even if he covered his ears, Xiao Yexiao couldn't block out the knocking sound.
It was as if the pause button had been pressed, and for a moment there was deathly silence all around.
Nothing, nothing at all.
I remember there is a saying about midnight snack.
There is a science to knocking on the door. People knock three times, ghosts knock four times.
【Four】This number is an extremely special symbol no matter which country it is in.
Just like many hospital elevators don’t have the [4] button, just like hotel rooms don’t have rooms numbered 404 or 444.
Words have power and can exist as a curse.
The number 4 is homophonic with the word “death” in most countries.
Anyone who knocks on four doors is definitely not a human in this school.
Xiao Yexiao understands this clearly.
He adjusted his breathing, inhaling and exhaling, and leaned his back against the wall, observing his surroundings.
His breathing was neither fast nor slow, and Xiao Yexiao was not in a hurry since he had already heard the knock on the door.
This means that she has been involved in a supernatural phenomenon. In this case, all she has to do is wait patiently.
Wait for the moment when the other party appears on his own initiative.
Then--
Find an opportunity to start counterattacking.
Unlike when she first entered the school, excluding the one that was just killed, she now has 86 Form Dai, and with the addition of Chi Ran Ji, she has enough capital and funds for trial and error.
"Buckle, buckle, buckle, buckle."
There were more knocks on the door, not one more, not one less, just four times.
This time, Xiao Yexiao, who was holding his breath, clearly confirmed the source of the sound.
To put it vividly, it was just like an episode of Tom and Jerry that she used to watch with her parents.
Jerry runs into Tom's ears and knocks Tom's eyes in Tom's head.
This was also the reason why she couldn't use her hearing to detect the knock on the door.
The knock on the door came from her mind.
The next second after Xiao Yexiao confirmed this.
The black shadow filled all the field of vision she could see.
She saw the space around her being stretched, and the dusty corridor beneath her feet turned into a platform that was only large enough for her to stand.
From somewhere in the dark, there was an inexplicable gaze staring at her.
A strong intuition told her that she must not move now.
If you move, you will die.
So, that's how the form was torn into pieces just now?
While moving forward, he was drawn into this supernatural phenomenon, and before he could react, he was killed.
[The room that cannot be opened], the reason why I can’t find it is because Sakurai didn’t tell me the corresponding information.
Because it exists in another world far away from the human world.
Only then did Xiao Yexiao realize that Sakurai had emphasized that he should remember to call him after reclaiming the [Blood-stained Classroom Engulfed by Fire].
however--
By the time Xiao Yexiao realized this, it was too late.
She had been drawn into the paranormal phenomenon, and her vision went dark before brightening again.
Xiao Yexiao came to a completely enclosed room.
The inside of the [unopenable room] that does not exist in reality.
In other words, she and Sakurai were separated.
The biggest trump card was thrown away by her own hands.
When Xiao Yexiao's feet touched the ground again, she had already appeared in an enclosed space.
The feeling that I would die if I moved no longer existed.
After thinking about it, Xiao Yexiao took out a shape from his bag and threw it out.
The paper man floated lightly in the air for a while before landing successfully.
Looking at the unharmed Xingdai who was fluttering on the ground.
Safety.
So...
The first thing to be determined is -
He took three or two steps and arrived at the tightly closed door, and Xiao Yexiao pulled it hard twice.
Very good, not moving at all.
This is undoubtedly a secret room.
Xiao Yexiao, who had expected this, turned around and looked around the furnishings in the room.
This dilapidated and dilapidated room has been abandoned for who knows how long.
Where is this place?
This was something she needed to make sure of as soon as possible.
After a few minutes, she quickly checked the furnishings on the table and the yellowed and blurred documents in the filing cabinet next to it and determined that she was in the principal's office of this school.
In other words, the [Principal's Office] that does not exist in the real world.
What should I do? How should I get out?
