Chapter 125: Big Ghost

Situ An built Han De Private School to feed that unknown thing. He even worked hard to become Han Hai’s famous businessman and philanthropist. He was impressive, but his actions were extreme.

“He created this death realm, so why would he need our help?” Gao Ming asked.

“After the union, one party will disappear. I suspect the ghost Situ An breed has started to regret its decision.” Ding Yuan put away the lighter. “But that’s just my suspicion. All we can confirm now is that Situ An hasn’t achieved full control of the school. The areas he can influence include the office building, the math building and part of the lab building. They are locations you can access with the teacher’s ID.”

“The teacher’s ID represents one kind of rule. Do the student council badges represent another kind of rule?”

“Correct.” Ding Yuan looked at Gao Ming with admiration. “The student council represents the school’s real rules. Some of the staff, like the chefs, the guards and the hostel managers, follow the school rules.”

“Situ An has to have another trump card to be able to survive here for so long.” Gao Ming knew Situ An was not simple. However, his identity was too weak compared to Situ An before this. This time, he swore to eat Situ An fully.

“Perhaps. Situ An is very scary. I can’t read him.” Ding Yuan shoved the map and everything else into his bag. “Other than the two rules I mentioned, there are some ‘big ghosts’ that refuse to follow both rules. The death realm will attract nearby ghosts. These big ghosts are very powerful. You can see them as the third force.”

“Do you wish to leave the office building now?”

“Situ An wants to kill me. It’s unsafe for me to stay.” Ding Yuan picked up his bag. “I’ll bring you to meet a special big ghost.” “You’re bringing me to meet a ghost?!” Ding Yuan was not as traditional as Gao Ming thought. He could even cooperate with ghosts.

Ding Yuan and Gao Ming had just come to the first floor when they heard Li Biao on the speaker. “Ol Ding, come to the headmaster’s office now. Even your assistant is here. Where are you?”

“This bastard wants to use Xiao Fei to threaten me?!” Ding Yuan’s face darkened. “The chief found a school loophole. If you don’t come soon, I’ll lead the team through it.” Li Biao didn’t seem to worry that Ding Yuan might escape.

The two exits of the office building were sealed.

“Don’t be rash. You need to be alive to save others.” Gao Ming stopped beside a door. “Should we escape through the windows?”

“You shouldn’t open any random doors. They could hide things that Situ An raised. Once they are out, the situation will become worse.”

“Then, we have to use the front door.” Gao Ming touched the darkness beside him. Before Ding Yuan reacted, he was swallowed by the big dog. The dog hid in the darkness, led the two out of the office building, and sneaked into the lab building.

After dropping them there, the big dog disappeared. Ding Yuan was shocked, but he didn’t ask anything because he knew this was Gao Ming’s secret.

“Situ An’s rules are in conflict with the school’s rules. They are fighting for control over the lab building, causing this building to sink into chaos. Some big ghosts hide here.” Ding Yuan leaned on the left wall. He entered the left corridor and went up to the fourth floor before coming back to the first floor. After doing this four times, he and Gao Ming heard an old lady’s voice.

“Tell him to get lost! The school is mine!”

A well-dressed old lady stood in the fourth-floor corridor. She held a broken phone and yelled into it. “If you dare to sell the school to Situ An, I don’t have you as my son! You can get lost with him.

“Charity is a habit. There is no sudden charity! Situ An is lying to you! How stupid can you be?

“Get lost! Get out of my school!”

The old lady was well-kempt. There was no wrinkle on her suit. She was a serious person and had high standards for herself. However, she was cursing like a sailor at that moment.

“The old lady’s name is Yan Xizhi. She was the headmistress of Han De Shu Xiang Academy. She used her life’s savings to build a school for the orphans. Before Situ An joined Han De Charity Headquarters, she was the vice president.” Ding Yuan looked at the lady with admiration. “She was very rich but was extremely humble. She has helped so many people.”

“Then, why is she here?”

“She lived a simple life, but she was ruined by her children. Her eldest son embezzled money from the charity and was exposed by the media. Her second son tried to escape the police and eventually killed himself. Back then, everyone felt like they were scammed. They thought she was a bad person and the charity was just a disguise. People forced her to resign and wanted to kill her.” Ding Yuan sighed. “She helped so many people, but no one spoke up for her.”

“The public was in a mob mentality. They felt like they had been used.” Gao Ming understood psychology.

“It was too late for her to say anything. She revealed her assets. People said that she had already moved the money before she did so. She showed the messages she had with her sons to prove that she was not shielding them. People said that she was willing to sacrifice her sons to save herself and that she was worse than animals. One day, she disappeared. No one cared whether she was alive or not. Many people said that she had taken the money and escaped the country.”

Ding Yuan walked down the corridor. “Actually, she was framed. Not long after she disappeared, Situ An took over her spot as the vice president at the charity.”

The well-dressed old lady saw Ding Yuan and Gao Ming. She hung up the call angrily and walked over. “Teacher Ding, is there an emergency for coming here so late at night?”

“Your eldest son has sold the school to Situ An. He’ll take over as the new headmaster in a few days.” Ding Yuan lowered his head.

“As long as I’m here, Han De Shu Xiang Academy will not fall into his hands! I will protect every single student here!” Yan Xizhi was like an angry lioness. Her memory paused at the moment before Situ An became the headmaster.

“It looks like the old lady didn’t disappear. She should be killed by Situ An at the school and she became a special big ghost after her death.” When Gao Ming studied the old lady, the old lady also studied him.
