Ch. 3: Chapter 3: Time Restart?
Chu Jiang turned around and ran away!
But suddenly, as he turned around, âCrash!â Chu Jiang almost fell off the chair. His whole body lost balance.
This made the students in the classroom look at him with amazed eyes.
Even Teacher Yu said, âChu Jiang, what's wrong with you?â
Chu Jiang looked at everything familiar in front of him and became completely stunned⊠What on earth is going on??
Didnât he escape from the classroom? Wasnât he already not far from the school gate? Didn't he collide with the half-human, half-ghost security guard?
Why, why is he still sitting in the classroom?
Could it be an illusion?
So, was the previous experience an illusion, or is what he sees now the illusion?
His thoughts froze for a few seconds, and when he saw the black diary on the desk, Chu Jiang immediately adjusted his chair.
The diary was naturally open. The most important thing is that the content on the first page hasn't changed.
So Chu Jiang stood up and looked out the window, staring fixedly at the location of the security office by the school gate.
This made the other students even more surprised. They all stared at Chu Jiang, who suddenly went crazy, and started whispering to each other.
Even Li Yan, who sat next to him, pulled Chu Jiang's sleeve in surprise.
But Chu Jiang completely ignored them.
Just as Deputy Class Leader Zhou Cheng was about to stand up to restore order in the class, and as Teacher Yu was about to speak againâŠ
âBang!â Suddenly, Chu Jiang punched the glass!
He saw the security guard lying on the table trying to stand up.
Everyone was shocked by Chu Jiangâs sudden action, but he didnât seem to realize it. He turned his head and shouted, âThe school is haunted, run!â
The whole class, including the teacher, froze once again.
After one second, Deputy Squad Leader Zhou Cheng said seriously, âDonât fool around, are you feeling unwell? Iâll take you to the clinic.â
Then the class became noisy, with people laughing, some looking at Chu Jiang with foolish eyes, and others teasingly saying, âDid you stay up all night at the internet cafĂ©? Are you hallucinating now?â
âChu Jiang, have you been playing too many horror games?â
âI think he watches too many horror movies. Heâs in senior year and still doesnât think about studying hard.â
Boys and girls, some laughed, some shook their heads, some continued studying as if nothing happened, some showed worried expressions, various expressions were seen.
âEveryone, stop making noise,â Teacher Yu raised her hand, âZhou Cheng, go help him.â
Chu Jiang had already expected this scene, so he didn't feel any injustice or anger.
Being in the same class for years, giving a reminder was already his best effort. Now that ghosts have started appearing, soon they won't have a choice but to believe.
As for saving everyone, Chu Jiang canât do it, he canât even save himself.
Finally, after roaring without incident, Chu Jiang could at least be sure that the teacher and classmates were not ghosts, at least not right now.
Seizing the time, Chu Jiang once again put his diary into his backpack and rushed out of the classroom door.
âWait!â Several people chased after him, Teacher Yu, the vice class monitor, and a male classmate named Zhang Haoran.
Chu Jiang didn't want to get involved with them, so he directly said, âLook outside the window, towards the school gate.â
The people who chased after him naturally wouldn't obediently listen, but there were still many idle classmates, some of whom instinctively looked in the direction he mentioned.
Then, the person by the window exclaimed.
âWhat is that?!â
âAm I not mistaken? Someoneâs face has been bitten off, and theyâre walking towards us.â
âIs that the security guard? Is he dead?â
âWhat's wrong with his lower body? Why does it look like a shadow?â
The cries of surprise attracted more people to the window. Except for a few with poor eyesight, anyone who saw the security guard's body felt a chill in their hearts.
Could there really be ghosts? Is everything Chu Jiang said true?
Taking advantage of the distracted attention of the three people around him, Chu Jiang quickly ran away. Soon, the school would be in chaos. Who knows how many people would survive after todayâŠ
While Chu Jiang was escaping, a few people in the classroom noticed and sporadically followed him out, not even the teacher could stop them.
Chu Jiang only noticed these people when he reached the second floor; among them, his desk mate Li Yan also chased after him, shouting, âWait for me!â
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Jiang slowed down. This desk mate was one of his good friends in class. He didnât have many friends, just a few. Otherwise, he wouldnât have asked this kid to accompany him to the infirmary earlier.
Several classmates caught up quickly. Chu Jiang remained silent and let them follow him as they ran together.
There were four people following: Li Yan, Han Feixiong, Cheng Jie, and Gao Yifei.
But here's the problem, Chu Jiang and Li Yan are good friends; Han Feixiong, on the other hand, has a good relationship with Li Yan.
And the last two people, they are not familiar with any of the three. Even Chu Jiang and Cheng Jie have some small disagreements, so he didn't expect her to follow.
Yes, Cheng Jie, she is a girl, and she is the class monitor of Class 12-2.
Cheng Jie is very beautiful, one of the class flowers. She has long hair, a oval face, fair skin, and in her bright eyes, it seems like there are ripples of water.
Although the girls are all wearing the same school uniform, this one is obviously outstanding, with a full chest. She also has a high status in the class, otherwise during the voting, the class monitor should have been Zhou Cheng.
âWhy are you following me?â Chu Jiang ran downstairs and said in a low voice.
Li Yan looked terrified, âI believe what you said, where should we run? I don't want to die.â
Han Feixiong also nodded repeatedly. Although his name sounds powerful, because of his chubby body shape, his classmates call him âHan Fattyâ.
Cheng Jie pursed her lips and remained silent.
Gao Yifei, who is tall and big, calmly said, âYou realized early that something happened with the security guard in the security room.â
âEven though I don't know what happened at school now, and how you knew in advance; but I think the chance of surviving is highest when you are with smart people.â
This answer surprised Chu Jiang a little. Gao Yifei is on the school basketball team and many girls like him for his tall and sunny look.
Although they are in the same class, they haven't said much to each other. Unexpectedly, this guy is quick-witted and decisive.
It seems like he was the first one who chased after them just now, and then it was Li Yan, Han Feixiong, and Cheng Jie.
âNext, if there's anything you need help with, just ask. I am physically fit, so I can definitely help.â
Faced with Gao Yifeiâs friendly initiative, Chu Jiang didnât refuse.
He took out his phone, trying to call the police.
But what made Chu Jiang anxious was that the call couldn't go through??
The cell phone has signal, full bars, but still can't make a call.
He immediately switched to WeChat, trying to contact his parents; but the result was the same, the phone has data, but couldn't send messages or receive any from the outside.
The others saw what he did and tried it themselves, but the result was the same.
