Chapter 17: Teacher, You Don't Want the Principal to Know, Do You?

"It... it came out?"

Teacher Yao's face, originally dry, thin, and waxen-yellow, now looked deathly pale as if he had been dead for three days; his teeth chattered uncontrollably, making a clattering clatter-clatter-clatter sound.

Only one thought remained in his mind—

It's over!

As far as he knew, the fate of the previous homeroom teacher who released something from the Small Black Room was not particularly pleasant.

After the principal took him to the Art Building, his screams echoed throughout the campus for three days and three nights.

By the time that homeroom teacher returned, he was unrecognizable as a human; his mental state was like that of a walking corpse, unable to care for himself, utterly becoming a useless person, let alone teaching students.

However, a homeroom teacher without value in this school is equivalent to a failing student unable to progress.

In the end, his fate was also—jumping from a building to take his own life.

Is this my final path?

"Your forehead looks dark, your complexion isn't good; do you need me to help cast a fortune? Just transfer me 50 via WeChat, I support WeChat transfers," Wu Wang said with a smile, looking at the nearly idiotic Teacher Yao.

The other person's expression became even worse.

He said viciously, "It's all because of you!"

Immediately after, he muttered to himself, "Right... I didn't release it... it's all this kid's fault!"

As long as he could get him caught by the Academic Affairs Office!

Let him take all the blame for everything!

I would still be the homeroom teacher of Class One; nothing would change!

But before he could take any action, a sharp dagger was stabbed into the grass between Teacher Yao's legs.

It was inches away from his little brother.

He looked up and met Wu Wang's brilliant smiling face.

"Teacher Yao, this is all because you taught us well, telling us classmates should love one another, so you let me go rescue the trapped classmate Liu Yang, right? I, your student, strictly follow your teachings!"

Whatever Chen Baili could think of, Wu Wang naturally thought of as well.

Since the role of the homeroom teacher is to manage students, then the role of the principal is to manage the homeroom teachers.

This old geezer is so terrified that the corpse in the Small Black Room has been released; most likely, he is afraid that the leaders above will learn of his negligence.

As soon as these words were spoken, Teacher Yao's face instantly turned gloomy as if water could drip from it.

Where else could he not understand?

This kid is threatening me!

If I take him to the Academic Affairs Office now and let him babble nonsense, among those homeroom teachers whose status is lower than mine, someone will surely seize the opportunity to make a big deal of it and report me severely!

The worst result would be that the principal, preferring to kill a thousand by mistake rather than let one escape, would also deal with me.

"What exactly do you want to do!" Teacher Yao said through gritted teeth.

Swish—

Wu Wang pulled the dagger from the ground, squatted down, and poked the corpse of Liu Yang, who had collapsed on the ground immediately after exiting the Small Black Room and showed no further movement; he seemed to be talking to himself, saying, "I have two knives."

"One is called Xiao Chuan, specializing in doing bad things."

"One is called Tang Niu, leaving no karmic traces."

The dagger danced in his hand as agilely as a spirit, finally being sheathed back into his combat boot.

He looked at Teacher Yao and smiled, "Tang Niu is here with me; do you know where Xiao Chuan went?"

"..."

Teacher Yao did not answer.

However, the violent heaving of his chest was enough to show that he was now furious to the extreme.

Of course, he understood the implied meaning.

This kid wants me to be the knife in his hand that specializes in doing bad things!

Since Gaoshan High School was established until now, there has never been an incident of a student threatening a homeroom teacher!

This is truly turning the world upside down!

But after a few seconds of impotent rage,

he still compromised.

He had fought for most of his life to gain this status; he did not want it to be snatched away by others so easily.

The kid in front of him was obviously a fearless madman; he was not worth dying together with a madman.

"Speak, what do you want me to do?" Teacher Yao's tone softened slightly, but he added, "Let's get one thing straight first; I cannot do anything that violates school rules."

In Teacher Yao's view, what students want is nothing more than two things.

One is special privileges within the rules, the other is foolish curiosity for knowledge.

He never expected Wu Wang to open with a heavyweight question: "You tell me first—where is the Art Building?"

When Wu Wang was in the Teaching Building, he had already noticed this problem.

The directional signs did not list the Art Building.

Obviously, the Ghost School did not want students to know about and go to that place.

"!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the old geezer was so frightened that he suddenly jumped up and covered the other person's mouth.

With terrified eyes, he said, "Are you crazy! Mentioning that building within the school grounds will make him hear it!"

Having said that, Teacher Yao was like a thief who had just done something bad.

He looked left and right, confirming safety.

Only after a moment did he let out a long sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, he doesn't observe this dark room much; you almost got me killed!"

Wu Wang narrowed his eyes, pondering Teacher Yao's current reaction.

The "he" in that old man's mouth must be the principal.

One person monitoring the entire school.

The other party's ability within this ghost school seems unimaginably powerful.

Damn Spirit Disaster Game!

Escape from such a monster's grasp? And also find a way to take more students away?

Oh, and four players are here to cause trouble.

Thanks a lot!

"Here's the deal: write down whatever you want to know on paper, bring it to my office, and I will give you the answer. Never say it out loud directly, understand?" Teacher Yao said, exasperated.

Wu Wang nodded: "Fine, then issue me a leave slip first. As for the time... five days."

He didn't want to waste time exploring on boring matters like attending class.

After all, he only had five days.

"Can't do it." Teacher Yao answered immediately.

"Huh? I'm telling you straight! I'm going to the art... Ugh!"

Wu Wang cursed as he spoke.

Before the words were out, Teacher Yao covered his mouth again.

The old man was so scared he was nearly fainting.

He hurriedly explained: "Don't shout! Don't shout! The leave slip requires a doctor's certification stating you cannot attend class normally for me to approve it; otherwise, it violates school rules. You should let me finish speaking! You're truly insane!"

Prying open the palm, Wu Wang twisted his neck and retorted: "Is the school doctor also someone like you? What about the security guards, cleaners, and other existences? Can one person manage all of them?"

Hearing him compare himself to the school doctor and security guards, a trace of Li Yimo immediately appeared on Teacher Yao's face.

He spoke coldly: "Only we and he are normal people in the school; the school doctor and security guards are just trash that can only follow orders and act according to standards."

Then, seemingly thinking of something, he warned Wu Wang: "Although the school doctor is trash, I suggest you best not try to deceive us; pretending to be sick also violates school rules."

"If you get caught, don't drag me into it!"

The old man's explanation gave Wu Wang a bit more understanding of the composition of this ghost school.

Ironically, he actually branded himself and the principal as normal people?

Could it be that, in his view, his actions were truly for the sake of educating students well?

Truly ridiculous.

"Fine, understood. I will take responsibility for handling the corpse, and I have a way to get the certification from the school doctor too. You just go back to your office and wait for me to process the OA."

Having said that, Wu Wang hoisted Liu Yang's corpse and walked out.

If the school doctor was truly as Teacher Yao described.

Then he would definitely be able to get a certification stating he cannot attend class normally!

Halfway there, Wu Wang suddenly thought of something.

He turned his head to the old man standing in place, panting heavily, and said:

"By the way, help organize the school rules for me. As a Three-Good Student, I believe I still need to correctly abide by the Daily Code of Conduct for Primary and Secondary School Students."

Teacher Yao: "?"

You? A Three-Good Student?

Which Three-Good Student carries a knife on their body and handles corpses!
