Chapter 855 The Boy in Red

We looked outside at the same time and saw a fat man in a white suit and neatly combed hair slowly walking in.

The security guard and Teacher Xia were startled at the same time, quickly moved out of the way, and politely shouted: "Principal!"

It turns out that this person is the principal.

The principal walked into the room and said to me very politely: "Sir, can you please come and sit with me?"

Li Mazi and I looked at each other. The plot turned too fast and we were both caught off guard. I asked doubtfully: "Is there something that I can't talk about here?"

The principal smiled and looked around. I knew what he meant was that there were so many people talking here that it was inconvenient to say some things. He nodded immediately: "Okay, let's go with you!"

The three of us followed the principal to his office. The principal of the private school is no less impressive than those of the big bosses, and the office is very luxuriously decorated.

The principal invited us to sit on the leather sofa, then made three cups of Maofeng tea, and asked: "I have seen what just happened through the surveillance video. The three of you seem to have a lot of background. I can take the liberty to ask, What do you do?"

When Li Mazi heard this, he immediately became excited and was about to take out his business card, but I stopped him. His business cards are too fancy, and they include fortune telling, Feng Shui reading, ghost hunting, collecting antiques and all sorts of things. A real master will not engage in such tricks.

I said calmly: "We are just merchants who collect things."

The principal seemed very interested: "Collect something, what thing?"

"Principal, have you ever heard of vaginal objects?" I asked.

"I would like to hear the details." The principal replied respectfully.

I roughly explained to him what a ghost thing is. After listening, the principal asked: "Mr. Zhang, do you think what happened just now was caused by a ghost thing?"

In fact, after what happened just now, I already had some idea in my mind, but when the principal invited me here, I didn't think he was just concerned about the safety of a janitor, but more like he was asking for something.

So I smiled vaguely: "Did anything special happen in your school recently?"

The principal wiped the sweat from his chubby face: "The school is just an ivory tower. The students and teachers are all simple-minded, so there is nothing wrong with it."

I looked at his words and felt that he seemed to be hiding something from us, so I stood up and pretended to leave: "Since there is nothing going on at school, let's leave."

"Mr. Zhang, stay!" The principal called to me and hesitated for a long time before saying, "To be honest, something happened to a child three months ago."

He said that three months ago, a senior high school student skipped class and returned to the dormitory. He fell down the building and was sent to the hospital where he died. The police intervened in the investigation and found out that the student accidentally fell through the window.

The school didn't want to make the matter a big deal, so it dealt with it coldly. The school did have management negligence in this matter, and it was mentally prepared for a lawsuit. It would pay as much compensation as it should, but it hoped that the matter would be settled.

The parents of the child quickly hired a lawyer, and both parties proposed to keep the matter private. In fact, the matter itself is not complicated, and the school cannot bear full responsibility, so after negotiation between the two parties, the school is willing to pay 200,000 yuan for mental damages.

But after the child's family took the money, he went back on his word and refused to acknowledge the debt.

The parents didn't know where they learned that there were several other students with the child at the time. Gradually, some rumors spread on the Internet, saying that a few wealthy second-generation children bullied the child and pushed him downstairs, and the school covered up the fact and took money to settle the matter.

The child's parents came to the school to cause trouble again. They carried the child's coffin to the school gate and wrote a blood letter demanding severe punishment for the murderer. As a result, the school was closed for the whole day.

Later, the principal asked someone to investigate and found that the child's parents had been divorced for many years and the child had lived with his mother. The mother was his legal guardian and the mother had already received the compensation. However, the child's father appeared out of nowhere after the incident and gathered a group of people from society to create such a farce. His intention was nothing more than to extort money from the school!

Naturally, the school refused to be taken advantage of. The other party stopped making trouble for a while, but the child's father made a harsh statement and said that the five students would pay with their lives.

When I heard that it was just an ordinary accidental death, I asked, "Doesn't this sound like anything unusual?"

The principal said: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, the school will start to be haunted later..."

Not long after this incident, a boy in red frequently appeared in the dormitory building where the incident occurred. He was the child who died. In addition to many students, there were also teachers as witnesses. As a school that spreads science and culture, it was naturally impossible for the school to hire Taoist priests to deal with it, so the students on both floors were moved out. Fortunately, the ghost only moved on those two floors and did not appear elsewhere.

But what happened next made people a little helpless. First, a teacher hit him in the office and beat himself on the back with a cane; then, a student tried to chop off his own hand with a knife, but luckily he used it. It was a pencil sharpener, which did not cause much damage; finally, a student disappeared in the middle of the night and was later found next to a reservoir a few kilometers away, which almost led to tragedy.

Coupled with what happened in the communication room today, the principal felt a headache.

So I just saw me settling this matter in the surveillance video, so I decided that I was a capable expert, so I invited us here.

After finishing speaking, the principal asked: "Mr. Zhang, I just heard what you said about ghost things. I feel that what happened in our school is quite consistent with the characteristics of ghost things. What do you think?"

I didn't answer directly, but said: "I'm just asking about one thing. Four incidents happened before and after. Did the person involved do anything bad?"

The principal put down the tea cup: "How do you say this?"

"Don't get me wrong, the bad things I'm talking about are definitely not murder and fire prevention, but some immoral behaviors." I explained.

"Is that a small mistake in life?" The principal thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Mr. Zhang, you are really good at predicting things. When you said that, I remembered that the teacher who whipped himself with a cane is said to have There were some real estate disputes at home; according to the class teacher, the student who chopped off his hands had some petty theft problems; the missing one..."

He couldn't remember it for a moment, but suddenly a voice came from outside: "The missing child was from one of my classes. He had a fight with another student before the accident, and his nose was crooked."

We looked towards the door and saw Teacher Xia. The principal asked, "Teacher Xia, why are you here?"

Teacher Xia blushed and said, "I'm really sorry. I was eavesdropping outside when you were talking just now. I saw the principal inviting you to come, so I guess I asked you for help. The student who had the accident is in our class, so I have to take responsibility."

"Do the students in your class get into trouble too often?" I asked with a frown.

The principal explained that Teacher Xia taught English to several classes, so when she said ‘class’ she did not mean one class.

Teacher Xia smoothed her hair and said, "I didn't find out in time that Xu Fangfang skipped class that day. The news that he fell to death was a bolt from the blue to me. I have blamed myself for this for a long time." Then he bowed to us solemnly: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Li, and this lady, we were so offended just now. I'm really sorry!"

The principal nodded: "Since you are here, let's sit down and talk together! I am discussing with Mr. Zhang how to solve this matter. By the way, Mr. Zhang, what do you think is the evil thing causing trouble this time?"

I pondered: "It's a yin thing. I guess it's a horn. Have you ever heard of the name Gaotao?"
