Chapter 566: 11.92 First Green Star - Punishment World: "Labyrinth - The Creepy Clown" (22)
[A/N: The dungeon setting they were in is based on the Movie IT. None of the settings in the original movie are mine only the changes in this story are mine. I just based the dungeon plot on the Movie "IT" but the main story is still different.]
---
Ye Xiajie and Hei Anjing together with Little Georgie were flying in the sky enjoying the wind breeze and the high-alt.i.tude scenery they were seeing. Georgie, who especially dreams of flying, was enjoying the scene. Even though all he saw are trees, rivers, and houses he still excitedly watches the scenery before him flash.
Hei Anjing is smiling so brightly but when he remembered his son, Ye Xiajing he couldn"t help but once again missed him. The child was young when he got separated from them.
Of course, his change of expression couldn"t escape the eyes of his husband. "Baby, do you miss our Xiao Jing? Don"t worry about him. Isn"t your family looking after him? I heard he is in school now. Don"t worry next time we return to Vearth I will ask Liang to get us some photos and videos for you."
"Thank you, my love. That"s great. Because I don"t know if I could stay awake when we return to Vearth." said Hei Anjing.
Deep inside his heart, he was feeling guilty. Because he knew that with how much his current soul had weakened there was no way he could be awake in Vearth. Vearth is the highest realm that existed. His weak soul could no longer bear staying that long in such a place unless he forced it but doing so would only further injure his soul. He is already running out of time and there are still two more worlds to go into after this. He just completed the second trial before the third one begins or else... It would be too late.
Ye Xiajie just smiled at his wife. He didn"t ask anything about whatever he was hiding. Because he knew that his wife would never say it unless he was willing to. There is no need to force him and make their relationship sour. He owes his wife too much already and he didn"t want to hurt him any more than he had done before while he couldn"t remember him at all.
Suddenly the silence was broken when Little Georgie spoke.
"Small Big Brother, what is that? What are they doing? There are so many sheep.~" said Little Georgie.
They followed the direction the little boy was pointing at and saw a small open field with a few wooden fences on it. There are lots of sheep running around in place. There are also a few adults butchering and cleaning some sheep. This place is a butcher farm.
What caught their eyes is the young boy who looks like his teen. Holding a stun gun which is used to kill sheep. The tip of his gun was placed on the forehead of one of the sheep but he looked so reluctant to pull the trigger as he had an eye to eye contact with the sheep he was supposed to kill.
If they based it on the other people who live in the town which is full of white skin and varting colored irises, these people seem like outsiders. Obviously, they are not people who were originally born in this place but someone who moved into the town inside.
What made Ye Xiajie and Hei Anjing even more interested in the young man named Mike floating above his head saying target. Mike is one of the 8 targets they are supposed to protect.
Hei Anjing said, "How lucky~ A"Xia it"s one of our targets."
"What do you want to do? Stay or play more?" asked Ye Xiajie.
Hei Anjing and Little Georgie answered, "Play!"
Ye Xiajie smiled, "Okay. Don"t worry about him. I will leave someone to trail him." He murmured something in the air and the shadows under the child called mike wavers. Unknown to the child an unknown being was now residing inside his shadow. It was one of the low-cla.s.s servants that served Ye Xiajie.
"Finish. Let"s go to the river next and have a picnic," said Ye Xiajie.
System Yang and System Yue who were accompanying them remained silent the whole time. One showed the direction where the river is located and the other went to the dimensional s.p.a.ce to prepare some snacks and meals like cakes and sandwiches for the picnic.
The three like how they had always been going to find the river and have a picnic. Zhi Yang and Zhi Yue also materialized to serve their lords and entertain the little boy who was with them. As for the rest, they"ve left it to their teammates to do so.

Summer Season
In the Countryside High School
Today is the last day of school and the summer vacation is about to begin. The students on the campus were all preparing to leave as they finally finished their school year for this term. Some students are gathering in groups preparing to leave as one, some coming over to say their farewells to their teachers, and some who are staying around waiting for the school to officially close. His skin is black paired with his black eyes.
In this place, Little George"s situation is common. There are countless issues about children missing all over the town but sadly no one knows the reason why and no one knows where they had disappeared. All they knew is that there were no traces left when those children had suddenly disappeared.
Because of this, there are some police officers patrolling near the schools regardless of whether it is a school for grade schools, junior high, or even high school. The range of missing children varied for all types of children.
Unfortunately, Little Georgie is one of the missing children. His elder brother, Bill, is one of the students from this High School campus.
DING. DONG. DING.
The sound of the bell rang all over the campus which signifies the end of school. The students were all running and walking out of their cla.s.srooms gathering in the hallways in groups chattering endlessly.
Chu Mo and the team had split up into three groups. Chu Mo and Lan She, Han Ya and An Yuan, lastly Zane works alone as he is someone without a lover with him. A single dog had no right to complain. He had to roam around the campus alone.
Han Ya and An Yuan entered the campus. Chu Mo and Lan She search through the sky while Zane was tasked to look for the only girl among the targets. This sole girl would separate from the rest of the target.
At this moment, Bill and his group of friends: Richie, Eddie, and Stanley were all walking out excitedly. They are excited like any other kids are there. It is finally their summer vacation and they should be able to play around more.
Chatterbox Richie speaking, "They slice the tip of his d.i.c.k off and... Blah blah blah..."
"That"s true..." replied Bill to whatever Richie was talking about.
"Wait up guys!" said Eddie who was a step behind Bill and Richie.
It was by then that Stanley joined up with the group and warned his friends.
"Found Henry and his troop by the lockers, be careful," said Stanley.
Henry is the leader of the bully boys in their school. This group likes to look down on Bill and his group of friends because they were all nerdy and such easy to bully troops. As expected they b.u.mped into Henry and his pals by the lockers as Stanley had said. Bill and their group choose to ignore them.
The difference in strength is quite obvious after all. Henry and his pals are larger builds than their slender physique. They wouldn"t win against this team with a fight and choose to retreat and ignore them as usual. Henry"s pals just gave them smirks as if looking down on them as they pa.s.sed by.
Meanwhile, Han Ya and An Yuan were snooping around. They had spotted this group of four young men happily talking with each other about to leave the school building.
An Yuan"s eyes brightened when he saw the floating labels above Bill and his friends.
"Xiao Ya, I found them. Four in this group plus Little Georgie we should have found five among the targets. Should we follow them?" asked An Yuan as he dragged his beloved by pulling their entwined hands to follow the brats out.
Han Ya was happily enjoying An Yuan holding his hands when he heard him talking. He doesn"t care about the targets, he just wants to spend more time with his beloved. After roaming around the school premises for half an hour with just the two of them alone already left satisfied.
Han Ya brought out a few Tracing Talismans and made them sticky on Bill and his friends" skins. The four didn"t know that a certain imprint in black cloud form appeared on their skin. This is a mark that was left intentionally by Han Ya.
"A"Yuan, We won"t lose them. I"ve placed a mark on them. I should be able to point out their location with my imprint." said Han Ya.
"That"s amazing, Xiao Ya. Let"s go over there. I saw them selling some corn dogs. Let"s buy some before meeting with the rest of the team. Pretty please~" said An Yuan.
Han Ya pointed to his cheeks indicating that An Yuan must kiss him first before he buys him some food. At first, An Yuan was embarra.s.sed. After all, there are too many children around them.
"They can"t see us, remember? This is only a game," said Han Ya.
An Yuan upon hearing this showed a delighted smile and reached out his hands asking the former to carry him. He is so small at this moment after all. Han Ya did as he wished and carried him in his arms. Then his chubby pair of hands held Han Ya"s cheeks and pecked his lips.
An Yuan smiling, "Is this okay?"
"It"s wonderful, my little pudding," said Han Ya and kissed him on his fat cheeks as a reply before carrying him away towards the stalls that sell corn dogs of course he didn"t forget to use the Soul Condensing Talisman to materialize their bodies.
On the other hand, on the other side of the building, Zane was panting like a tired dog. He had been looking around the girl"s restrooms and peeking in before running off as if afraid of being caught. He had completely forgotten that he is a ghost at this moment.
Zane mumbled as he pants, "Hah hah~ so tired~ just how many restrooms are there in this stupid building. Better check the ground floor for the last."
Then he saw a girl called Greta talking on her phone saying to keep someone locked in the restroom and don"t let the target out. She is clearly a female bully and caught Zane"s interest. He wanted to see what is the difference between boys" and girls" bullying.
"Oh yeah, I forgot I"m invisible as a ghost right now." Zane murmured, "Girls bullying? Heh~ for real. Now this looks fun~" then he followed after the female student called Greta to a ground floor restroom.
Who would expect he would hit a jackpot because of his nosiness. He found a labeled target floating among one of the cubicles within the restroom. What surprised him is that a few girls are pulling out a garbage bag and filling it with water. Then this great girl stopped in front of the closed-door cubicle and suddenly kicked the door like a mad bull.
Greta spoke, "Are you in there by yourself, Beverly~ or do you have half the guys in the school with you, huh, s.l.u.t!?"
BANG!
"I know you are in there you little s.h.i.t!? s.l.u.t! I can smell you!" yelled Greta.
Zane, who was watching in invisible mode, crossed his arms and watched the play with a devil may care att.i.tude.
"Whoa~ that"s a bit harsh!" commented Zane.
The target named Beverly responded calmly inside. Zane could even see smoke coming out from above the closed cubicle.
"Is this little girl smoking at such a young age?" said Zane.
Beverly responded to Greta"s taunts and said, "Which is it, Greta? Am I a s.l.u.t or a little s.h.i.t? Made up your mind, pig!"
"You"re a trash!" yelled Greta as he gestured her minion to pour the water-filled garbage bag into the closed cubicle Beverly was in.
"Whoa~ this is insane!" said Zane.
Zane who was watching was shocked by how cruel these little girls are to bullying. For boys bullying only comes with punches and kicks but these girls fight with verbal insults and s.h.i.t involved in it.
But before the garbage water was poured all over Beverly she kicked the cubicle door open making Greta hit her face directly on her face and ended up with a nosebleed at the same time avoiding the garbage water that almost fell on her head.
BANG!
AHH!!
"GRETA!!! ARE YOU ALRIGHT!?"
Beverly looked down on Greta and snorted at her. But when she met Zane"s eyes.
Zane cursed, "f.u.c.k! You can see me!?" he asked in surprise. He was even more speechless when the little girl nodded her head to show her agreement with his question.
"f.u.c.k. f.u.c.k. s.h.i.t! What is happening!?" said Zane. The idiot who forgot that the targets can see them regardless as a ghost or not. In the end, he runs away to escape. Even forgetting to leave a tracing talisman on her to track her location.
Beverly watched Zane run off like he would be dragged by the little girl to be caught by the police officers outside.
