Chapter 77 - Ghost Eyes
Translator: Yuzu
The man’s expression was worse than that of eating sh*t. His face was also horribly white, and cold sweat was coming out on his forehead. His eyes were bulging as if they would jump out, and his lips were quivering with fear.
Lulu laughed, and the corners of her mouth pulled wide open. She looked like a maniac. She moved her head, and her neck made a clicking sound. She grabbed the man’s chin and forced him to look at her. A b.l.o.o.d.y and distorted face was exposed in the daylight, making the man let out a whimper.
Lulu lowered her head, and her gaze locked on the crowd of people watching downstairs. There were already many students below. Even though security guards were pulling their voices to maintain order, many students still pushed their way to the center, wanting to have a better look. In addition to the shock in their expressions, they couldn’t hide the indifference they had when seeing someone attempting suicide and the hidden satisfaction they felt as they witnessed someone else’s misfortune.
See, there are people in this world who are worse than I am. Compared to that, I am really happy.
Looking at all the ugly faces, more and more blood streamed from Lulu’s face, and her skin rotted even more horribly. She moved her mouth to say, “Teacher, look, they all want you to die.”
Then, she held down the man’s head, forcing him to look below. Once again, the man nearly fell because of the imbalance of his body, and unsurprisingly, the commotion downstairs intensified. The number of people holding up their phones as they watched the scene also increased.
Perhaps, if not for the presence of the security guards, the students probably would have been impatient and shouted directly, Are you jumping or not? I’m in a hurry!
Lulu seemed to recall something, and the strength in her hands became stronger all of a sudden.
“Teacher, I was only fourteen when I died! I was supposed to live a good life! If I were still alive, I would have already graduated from college by now.” Lulu’s voice began to crack as she continued.
Then it was followed by a loud, unpleasant laugh as she went on to say, “Why? Why!” Lulu’s voice was getting louder and louder, like the roar of a raging lion.
“I am obviously the victim, but why is everyone accusing me of being in the wrong” Lulu laughed louder; her expression was crazed, “Blaming me for revealing clothes, calling me shameless, and laughing at me because I deserved it. They even criticized my past and constantly mocked me, just to prove that I was at fault.” Her eyes were a bit dull, and her voice weakened, “just to prove that I deserved everything that I suffered!”
Her b.l.o.o.d.y black nails pinched into the man’s skin, staining it with blood, “Teacher, remember that day when I was standing in a place like this too, and you were standing right below watching me. Then the whole world laughed at me, just like they are now, and everyone couldn’t wait for me to die!!!! Hahahaha!!!”
“But what about you, the perpetrator!” Lulu’s voice faltered, “Only dismissed under school disciplinary action! Changed your name! Changed your learning environment and actually became a college professor! Being respected and praised by people!”
“No one can remember the dirty things you’ve done anymore!”
“And no one will remember that there existed a girl in this world called Chen Lulu!!! She once lived too!!!”
She once was trying so hard to live in this world!
“Teacher Li, calm down!!!” The door of the rooftop was violently rammed open with force, followed by the rushing in of a h.o.a.rd of people.
It was the school’s teachers, security guards, and a few students who had informed them of the situation.
The man’s eyes instantly lit up as if he had seen the dawn of hope, and his expression was one of unconcealed surprise.
He moved his mouth, but the sound that came out was still a m.u.f.fled whimper.
Help me!!!
Lulu turned back and looked at the group that had anxious faces.
She laughed so hard that more blood flowed out of her face.
“Mr. Li, if you have any dissatisfaction with the school, we can solve it properly in private. If you feel that your teaching tasks are heavy, we can also reduce the weight! Life only comes once! There is nothing that can’t be discussed properly.” The one who spoke out was a female teacher who was the school’s psychologist.
She saw that the man did not respond or do anything to resist her. She took a few more steps forward, seemingly intending to continue to persuade the man patiently.
But how would she know what this man who calls himself Mr. Li has recklessly disregarded human decency and is actually a monster in disguise?
Lulu looked at this ridiculous scene in front of her.
Why is it that when she died, no one came out to give her a hand?
She laughed again with a touch of madness.
As Nietzsche said, one does not kill by anger but by laughter.
The man’s eyes could not hide his urge to live.
Without hesitation, Lulu released her grip on the man.
It’s time for you to die too.
The man’s eyes widened, his body uncontrollably tilted down, and his terrified eyes fixed on Lulu before falling completely. However, he was unable to struggle or even let out the slightest scream.
The people above were horrified, especially the female teacher who could hardly conceal the disbelief in her eyes.
In the next second, frantic, chaotic, and panicked shouts came from downstairs, followed by a loud “pong” sound.
Blood flowed.
Dead on the spot.
It is only logical that a ghost with great revenge should have less resentment after getting revenge.
Xiao Chen silently observed the resentment on the girl’s head.
Her resentment has not decreased but instead has an increasing trend.
Lulu looked at the tragic body downstairs, sneered, and let the blood on her face flow down crazily. It then stained her white dress, starting from the collar and to the rest of the dress. In a short while, it had been completely dyed into red with blood. Paired with that b.l.o.o.d.y face, it was gruesome and horrifying.
She did not look happy to have her great revenge. On the contrary, her anger burned even more vigorously.
Not enough! Far from enough!
Who else? Who else is there?
Lulu clenched her fist. Why is her resentment not gone? Who else is not dead?
Her eyes focused on those below. Suddenly, as though she had spotted something in the crowd, the corners of her mouth curled upward again, like a clown performing a show with an open smile.
I remember!
There is also him.
Heh.
Xiao Chen sensitively noticed that a red-haired boy close by had a pale face. His body’s Yang energy was drained for some reason as if it had been taken away for the most part. Compared with the people around him, his Yang energy was a bit weak in contrast.
This is generally a sign indicating that his end is near.
The red-haired boy’s gaze did not follow the eyes of everyone around to look at the body lying on the floor, but instead, he tilted his head and looked at the rooftop. It was unclear whether he saw any frightening scene, but he fiercely lowered his head and then gasped for air.
His body trembled uncontrollably like a shaking sieve. His eyes were wide open, and his complexion was ashen.
Xiao Chen has never been nosy and is not curious about the man who died after plunging off a building, let alone wondering what this red-haired man has to do with the incident.
After all.
All this has nothing to do with him.
He has always been indifferent.
The surrounding area was still emitting various screams because of the shocking scene just now. Some people were even scared to the point that their legs went weak, and they fell on their knees, especially the students standing in the front row who had blood splashed directly onto their hair, faces, and clothes. They even felt a tremor like an earthquake when the body hit the ground.
It’s crazy. It’s crazy.
He actually jumped.
Xiao Chen had been standing in the far corner. The matter was not his concern, so he turned around, intending to leave the scene.
It goes without thinking that when something of this magnitude happens, suspension of cla.s.ses is inevitable.
The moment he turned around, his head crashed directly into a broad chest. His nose brushed against the man’s body, and he caught a faint fragrance.
“…………”
“…………”
The corners of Xiao Chen’s mouth rose upward somewhat uncontrollably as he looked at the man in front of him.
Jing Hezhi’s gray eyes moved, then his large hand directly caught Xiao Chen’s waist.
The surrounding ghosts of all sizes in at least a 500-meter radius all fled like crazy as if they had seen the king of h.e.l.l and had to run for their lives.
Even the original eerie chill brought on by the excessive resentment has mostly subsided.
Xiao Chen and the man tacitly glanced at each other and walked towards a place with fewer people.
The moment Jing Hezhi turned to leave, he looked up at the person standing on the rooftop, and his gray eyes were undisturbed, seemingly unconcerned with what had happened.
In his eyes, they were all like mere ants and playthings.
After walking a few steps, there was no one around.
Xiao Chen immediately hooked his hands around the man’s neck and looked at him playfully, “Why did you get out today?”
Jing Hezhi used his hand to whisk the bangs that blocked Xiao Chen’s eyes to the side. The phoenix eyes that were blocked by the bangs had a smile in the corner, and there was love embedded in these eyes, which suddenly made the man feel a little dry in his throat.
Want to kiss.
Indeed, he did just that.
Xiao Chen was surprised when the man pinned him to the wall and kissed him on the corner of his right eye without a word. The man even extended his teeth to pretend to bite him twice.
It was a bit difficult to wait for the man to kiss enough before he replied, “I miss you.”
The reason is really quite simple and straightforward.
It was very much in line with Jing Hezhi.
Xiao Chen licked his lower lip and quietly stared at the man’s eyes.
Jing Hezhi really did not hold back and directly sealed the person’s mouth in front of him.
Xiao Chen wrapped his arms around the man’s waist.
It was hard to end the kiss. Xiao Chen felt that a layer of his tongue was sucked off. There was also a faint red color on his face.
“Go home.” Jing Hezhi touched the top of Xiao Chen’s hair, and his eyes narrowed vaguely, looking a bit like he desired something.
“Okay, go home.”
You are my home.
