Thick blood fog rolled into the corridor following Chen Ge . The red chair in the distance flickered in and out of existence, and they could hear pleading and cries in their ears .
"How many people have died in this corridor? Just walking down it feel so creepy," the headmaster said softly . Once he opened his mouth, cold air rushed into his throat .
"I have no idea . " Chen Ge shook his head . He was slowly getting close to Zhang Ya's secret . "Just how did an innocent girl turn into a Greater Red Specter? The answer to that should be found here . "
The pleading in their ears grew . Blood dripped, and small blood vessels surfaced on the walls . This corridor felt like the intestine of a beast .
"Chen Ge, something feels off . " The old headmaster guarded Yin Hong and Yin Bai . He wanted to say something more, but Yin Hong got to it first .
"This place makes me feel uncomfortable . There's a jolt in my heart . We'd better stop here . "

A Red Specter's heart was different from that of a normal person . Their heart was their deepest resentment . If there was shaking to their heart, it meant that their existence was threatened, and they were inside a very dangerous situation .
"Boss, I also feel a numbness coming over me . " Bai Qiulin's hand that placed in his pocket was shaking . The last time that he had experienced this was when he was with the shadow in Li Wan City .
"Don't panic . " Of everyone there, only Chen Ge managed to keep his calm . His eyes stared at the chair down the hall . Every time he blinked, the distance between him and the chair seemed to close . This felt so familiar, just like the first time he went to Western Jiujiang Private Academy .
"Be careful of that chair!" Yin Hong warned again . The chair was not that scary, but it seemed to represent something that could elicit the fear in people's heart .
"The pleading sounds like it comes from the chair . Is the rumor at this school real?" The seniors and staff waited at the entrance to the female dormitory, and they saw this . Blood fog drifted, and the red chair was slowly approaching . No one had been inside there before, and all their hearts were jumping . The scariest legend at the school was before them . No one knew what would happen next—everyone held their breath .
"Save me… Save me…" A girl's voice became clearer . As the chair grew close, the people saw the faded image of a girl sitting on the chair with venom in her eyes .

"She seems to be looking for a scapegoat . " Even Red Specters did not scare the girl on the chair . Her expression kept twisting as she came at the group .
"What is it? We can see it but can't sense it . She doesn't look like a Specter or a lingering spirit . This is strange . " Not only did Chen Ge feel that, all the Red Specters around him felt it . The girl on the chair seemed to melt into the corridor . As the girl got closer, the corridor felt as if it was shortening like a mouth that was trying to consume everyone .
"Be careful!" Cries for help mixed in the thick blood . Everyone had a bad feeling .
"Mr . Lei, are we going to just stand here?" a female teacher asked . "What if something happens to them? Many students follow him . "
"Then you go in and get them to come out . I won't stop you . " Mr . Lei glared at her . "Before I joined this school, the forbidden zones were here . These are where the most dangerous secrets at this school are hidden . Do you know why they are secrets?"

The female teacher did not look that relaxed . She shook her head .
"They are secrets because once you know what they are, you have to pay something back in return, something like death or becoming part of the secret yourself . " Mr . Lei was a clever person, or else he would not have survived for so long at the school . "Go and call for help . Get some bricks and be prepared to seal up this place . "
"Sir, something is banging against the school from outside . There are openings everywhere . We don't have enough manpower to order around anymore . "
"There is no other option . Just follow my order . "
"There is no need to disperse the students here?"
"No, I want them to see for themselves the death of that Chen Ge inside the forbidden zone . That way, no one will go against the school anymore, and no one will believe him . " Mr . Lei retreated to the crowd . "There are too many difficult students at this school . It is time for a wake-up call . "
"But is this really the correct thing to do?" The female teacher wanted to change his mind .
"It's too late to anything else . When they saw the chair, the ending was decided . Be it Specters or Red Specters, once they are targeted by the monsters locked in the chair, unless they can escape from this school, the only ending is death . " Mr . Lei obviously knew something, but he did not elaborate . However, there was a pain in his eyes like he had once lost someone important to this . "This female dormitory is a man-eating monster . No one who has entered it has left . "
Through the crowd, Mr . Lei looked down the corridor . The red chair was rapidly moving toward Chen Ge .
"Resistance will lead to more change, and there are monsters inside the rooms along the corridor . Once he makes his move, everyone will be eaten until there is nothing left . " Mr . Lei's eyes had seen the result . He yelled to the students behind him, "Get back! This place will soon…"
He had not finished when Mr . Lei saw the strange expression on the female teacher beside him . He turned and saw the chair finally appear before Chen Ge . But then, the girl on the chair suddenly screamed and ran down the corridor faster than the speed she came .
"That's impossible!" Mr . Lei's hand froze in midair . He walked to the female dormitory entrance and moved the trash away to see . The scream of the girl alerted all the monsters in the corridor, but unlike what Mr . Lei expected, the scene where Chen Ge's group was torn into pieces did not happen . Instead, the doors along the corridor slammed shut, and he even heard some being locked .
"What did the girl on the chair see‽" Mr . Lei did not get it, nor did the others following Chen Ge . However, Chen Ge himself knew what had happened after several seconds .
"The girl on the chair probably sensed Zhang Ya's presence . That is the only explanation . " Chen Ge turned to look at his shadow . "Only the lingering scent on me can scare her away like that . Will Zhang Ya awaken soon?"
