Chapter 341

"No need."

Rumi Tsurumi shook her head and pulled on her school bag with both hands. "I'm going home now."

"By the way, little Tsurumi, you attend Chiba Elementary School, right?"

"Yeah."

Rumi Tsurumi blinked and looked at Lin Ye.

A thought popped into her mind: could Lin Ye's friend work at Chiba Elementary School?

"Have there been any strange or special things at your elementary school recently? I heard from my friend that Chiba Elementary School has been a bit abnormal lately."

This made Rumi Tsurumi subconsciously suspicious of Lin Ye's purpose.

Could Lin Ye have come to Chiba Elementary School specifically?

But that would be too much of a coincidence!

This was a strong thought in the little girl's heart.

"I heard classmates say there are ghosts at our school."

"Sigh, ghosts! Haha, wouldn't that be your other classmates deliberately trying to scare you!"

"..."

Rumi Tsurumi suddenly felt that maybe she was overthinking it. This person didn't look like someone who believed in ghosts at all, so how could he possibly have come to Chiba Elementary School specifically?

"Believe it or not, anyway, there are Eerie at our school."

"Hahaha,"

from Lin Ye's perspective,

if the Eerie at Chiba Elementary School were very dangerous, then Chiba Elementary School should have fallen into a shadow of unknown death and fear, and the school should have suspended classes, rather than teachers and the school operating normally.

This indicated that the school's Eerie currently had a small impact and was within a controllable range.

Rumi Tsurumi saw Lin Ye's mocking and disbelieving look and didn't argue further. Someone who wasn't related to Chiba Elementary School and hadn't experienced the Eerie wouldn't believe her words.

She had almost thought Lin Ye was specifically here to solve the Eerie at Chiba Elementary School.

"Goodbye, big brother."

Rumi Tsurumi said goodbye, her voice a bit cold.

Lin Ye watched the girl disappear around the corner, his expression returning to calm.

"Even if I cause a big stir, they won't associate it with me."

Lin Ye muttered a sentence and set off.

A few minutes later, he arrived at Chiba Elementary School. At this time, under the rendering of the dusk, Chiba Elementary School was inexplicably permeated with a desolate and indifferent atmosphere.

Lin Ye didn't step in immediately, but instead walked around Chiba Elementary School along the perimeter wall.

After one lap,

he hadn't discovered anyone inside the school, nor had he seen any special existence.

"I can only go in and take a look."

Lin Ye looked at the open elementary school gate, thought for a moment, and walked straight inside.

Still bathed in the dusk, Lin Ye didn't feel any changes.

He walked alone in this elementary school without any other figures, the sound of his 'tap, tap, tap' footsteps being exceptionally clear.

Lin Ye suppressed his emotions, his eyes turning to observe, and occasionally he even used his X-ray vision to observe the situation inside the buildings.

But...

nothing was gained; there was no peculiar existence.

And the prompt sound of the 'Eerie Game' was even more absent.

"No Eerie? Or is the Eerie sensing danger and not daring to come out?"

Or perhaps it was sneaking around hiding somewhere and staring at him?

Lin Ye wondered if it was because the time wasn't right.

Could it be that the Eerie would only appear after nightfall?

If that were the case, he was afraid he wouldn't have a chance to find the Eerie today.

After one lap,

Lin Ye hadn't discovered any problems, nor had he found any useful clues. He walked inside and even knocked on a classroom door.

But there was no response.

If this Eerie wouldn't even appear, how was he supposed to solve it?

Lin Ye had a headache. "No wonder they said it would take ten days; this definitely requires spending a lot of time finding the Eerie before it can be solved."

And this method was the biggest difficulty.

After two laps,

Lin Ye saw that he still hadn't discovered any traces and could only temporarily choose to give up.

He had a date with Ren Nanase tonight, so he'd better go meet the girl first!

Walking out of the Chiba school gate,

Lin Ye turned around, preparing to follow the road to the train station, but saw that little girl, Rumi Tsurumi, who should have already gone back.

"Little Tsurumi, you didn't go back?"

Lin Ye took the initiative to greet her,

but deep down, he had already raised his vigilance. Could this little girl be an illusion created by the Eerie!

If so, that was really a bit scheming.

This Eerie had intelligence.

"Why did big brother come to our elementary school!"

Facing the girl's counter-question, Lin Ye maintained a smile. "A friend of mine is a teacher at this elementary school."

"..."

Rumi Tsurumi was silent, not knowing how to determine the truth of Lin Ye's words.

"Big brother's friend's name."

She inquired, her eyes clearly indicating: I know the names of all the teachers in our school; if you lie, I will know.

This self-confidence made Lin Ye recall himself in elementary school in his previous life; at that time, he really couldn't remember the names of all his teachers.

"Little Tsurumi thinks I went to the school to steal? Have you ever seen a thief come out empty-handed?"

Lin Ye spread his hands.

"Big brother must have other intentions. Since big brother is unwilling to say, then I... can only call the police."

"You're still so young, and you've already learned to use calling the police to threaten people. That's not a good habit; I'm very worried about your personality when you grow up."

These words made Rumi Tsurumi subconsciously take a step back.

"Kyou Fujibayashi,"

Lin Ye took out his phone, opened his contacts, and found Kyou Fujibayashi's entry.

"Look! Kyou Fujibayashi's contact number. If you know her, you should know this is her number."

Rumi Tsurumi didn't have Kyou Fujibayashi's contact information, but Lin Ye's proactive display of evidence already indicated that what he said was basically true.

"You came to find Teacher Fujibayashi?"

"You could say that!"

"You won't find her; she's not here anymore."

"Yeah."

"She was taken to another world by the Eerie."

Lin Ye was stunned, feeling as if he had heard something incredible.

"Big brother, I don't know if you believe it, but there is indeed an Eerie at our school, and Teacher Kyou Fujibayashi has already encountered it. After school today, the teacher never came out again. I've been waiting outside the school gate the whole time and never saw her come out, so... it can basically be determined that she was taken away."

Lin Ye immediately dialed Kyou Fujibayashi's phone.

Could something really have happened to her!

"The user you are calling is out of service area, please try again later."
