Chapter 52: The Perfect Opportunity for Murder and Body Disposal
Liu Siyi… the woman next to Li Xiangfei, looked at Liu Haoyu’s gas mask and felt a vague, inexplicable sense of unease.
“Are you guys leaving?” Liu Haoyu shrugged and said, “If not, I’m going ahead.”
“…”
Watching Liu Haoyu’s retreating back, the four exchanged glances, muttering something to each other.
But Liu Haoyu couldn’t be bothered by their murmuring.
His goal today was to hang out with these two streamers for a night, earn some extra cash, and find the hide-and-seek sounds from the elementary school.
“You guys say…” the timid strong man whispered, “Doesn’t this person feel a bit off?”
But Li Xiangfei was quite bold. He laughed and said.
“What’s wrong? Wearing such a mask does give it some atmosphere. Maybe for the sake of the show, we should ask him to be the ghost.”
With that, he followed behind Liu Haoyu.
The van wasn’t parked at the main entrance of the school, but near the back gate.
There were cameras at the front, and to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Xiangfei’s original plan was to enter from the back gate.
They walked along a small path through the fields.
The rice paddies were lush and green, but perhaps due to the use of herbicides, the weeds on both sides were tall but withered and yellow.
As the night wind blew, they rustled from time to time.
Under these strange sounds, the group felt an increasing illusion of someone following them.
And the closer they got to the school, the stronger this illusion of being followed became.
The sounds in their ears began to disappear, and an unsettling aura permeated the air.
When everything fell silent, all that remained were the muffled footsteps of their shoes on the dirt.
At this moment, Liu Haoyu, who was leading the way, stopped.
“Something’s wrong…”
“What’s wrong?”
Li Xiangfei looked at Liu Haoyu’s mysterious appearance and asked doubtfully.
“Did you find something?”
“Not exactly found something, it’s just… it’s a bit dangerous here. I suggest you guys leave quickly.”
Liu Haoyu’s voice was muffled by the gas mask, sounding particularly low.
It was even a little eerie.
But due to the gas mask, these four couldn’t see Liu Haoyu’s serious expression.
Among them, Liu Siyi said impatiently.
“If you’re scared, go back by yourself. You’re so big and yet such a coward.”
Liu Siyi’s words made Li Xiangfei give Liu Haoyu an awkward smile.
Liu Haoyu didn’t get angry after hearing this. He ignored Liu Siyi’s thoughts and continued to walk forward.
When they reached the back door of the school, he flipped over and went inside.
“Brother, provide us with backup inside.”
Hearing Li Xiangfei’s words, Liu Haoyu, on the other side of the iron door, nodded and said.
“I’ll wait for you here.”
The three of them gradually climbed over the iron door. When it was Liu Siyi’s turn, the woman’s stamina might have really been not very good. Even with Li Xiangfei helping her over the wall, she couldn’t jump that high.
“Do you need a hand?”
Liu Haoyu, on the other side of the iron door, said.
But Liu Siyi’s competitive spirit took over. She gritted her teeth and said.
“No need.”
Saying that, she tried her best to jump, but still couldn’t reach Li Xiangfei’s hand. She even sprained her ankle because she was wearing shoes with height-increasing insoles.
“Ugh…”
Liu Siyi clutched her ankle. Li Xiangfei saw this and quickly jumped down, asking.
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine…”
Liu Haoyu climbed back over the wall and said to the two people below.
“Perhaps it’s better if we go back tonight?”
“…No need,” Liu Siyi said, gasping and insisting, “You help me from up there, Xiangfei, carry me.”
“Okay.”
Finally, with the combined efforts of two men, they managed to get the female streamer into the campus.
After she landed, she limped and said painfully.
“I should have just used the front entrance.”
After speaking, she looked up, seemingly wanting to order someone to prepare for the live broadcast.
But it was only then that she realized… the two burly men who had entered the campus first had already disappeared.
Where did they go?
At this moment, Liu Haoyu and Li Xiangfei had also entered the campus.
“Huh? Where are those two brothers?”
Li Xiangfei looked at the empty campus and was a bit confused.
Liu Haoyu felt the heavy atmosphere around him and said nothing, just silently rummaged through his backpack for the blood-stained fire axe.
When she saw the blood-stained axe, Liu Siyi’s brain felt like it was about to explode.
Her expression was shocked, and she asked in disbelief.
“What are you bringing this thing for!?”
Liu Haoyu, wearing the gas mask, said in a calm, dismissive tone.
“Going out at night, carrying a fire axe for self-defense, isn’t that a normal operation? And if I really encounter a masked murderer, I can use this axe to kill him.”
Looking at Liu Haoyu’s skill and familiarity with the situation, the man and woman felt their unease growing stronger.
Especially Liu Siyi, she even suspected if the murderer the driver mentioned was this man wearing the gas mask.
But even if she wanted to run now, it seemed there was no retreat.
The iron gate behind them was locked with a chain lock, and it couldn’t be opened from the inside.
As for climbing the wall… her ankle was already injured, making it even more impossible.
“Let’s go find those two first.”
Liu Haoyu walked ahead, and even Li Xiangfei fell completely silent looking at his back, carrying the fire axe.
“Xiangfei… do you think he might have already…?”
Liu Siyi made a throat-slitting gesture.
Just now, Liu Haoyu entered the school first, followed closely by the two burly men, while Li Xiangfei, in order to help Liu Siyi, didn’t pay attention to the situation inside.
Could it be that in these two minutes, those two have already been hacked to death and dragged into the bushes by him?
As a paranormal streamer, Liu Siyi and Li Xiangfei had naturally watched many horror movies.
Therefore, this speculation was the closest to the truth of the two men’s disappearance.
Thinking of this, Liu Siyi took out her mobile phone, trying to dial the emergency number.
However, when she took out her phone, she found that there was no signal at all.
Normally, even if the school was remote, it shouldn’t have absolutely no signal, right?
And schools usually have WiFi, but Liu Siyi found that there was no WiFi here either.
A desolate and deserted school, a dark and windy night, a phone that couldn’t connect to the outside world…
If you think about it carefully, isn’t this the perfect time for murder and body disposal?!
