Chapter 86: This world is unscientific (17)

Sorry for disappearing for a while. My health crashed again

It was only until a month later that the Rainbow Kindergarten incident gradually subsided. Throughout the investigation, many big shots were interrogated by the Central Investigation Team and publicly punished. In the passing month, everyone would always see new information about these pieces of scum in the news. The dense anger and gloom in the public’s hearts also gradually dissipated.

In addition, various other explosive news have also come out in the last two months. In order to protect the children, as well as other factors, everyone no longer talked about the kindergarten situation, but instead turned to look at other headlines on Toutiao.

Among these headlines, the hot search topic that ranked number one several times was — are there ghosts in this world?

On Weibo, the science community and the supernatural community have practically flipped the skies in their debate. The science community has basically shot down every example the supernatural community has raised with scientific principles. The supernatural community scoffed towards this and felt that they were making irrelevant comparisons. However, the science community felt that the supernatural community were people who would do strange things every day, so their thoughts definitely weren’t right! In any case, these two communities would tear at each other every day. No one could convince either side, drawing over a large number of people who came to eat melon seeds and join in the fun.

Then, someone’s post under this topic was upvoted to the front page.

@cat is crazy: Everyone, please stop arguing for a moment. Can you listen to what I have to say?! On the road I take home to the west of my house, I can hear a child laughing every time I come back from self-study at night! Is that place haunted?! I originally thought that I might have been hallucinating, but last night was especially frightening! Just when I was about to set foot on that path, the child that had been laughing beside my ear suddenly started to cry, telling me to run away and not walk down that path! I was so scared that I directly turned around and ran. Then, I heard today that a female college student went missing on that road! Seeking everyone of the science and supernatural community, would you please answer my questions?! Is it just my illusion or is it really a ghost? I now feel that regardless of whether its a human or a ghost, they’re both extremely frightening! I don’t dare to walk down that road again!]

@science is everything solid reason: [Upstairs, are you support sent over from the supernatural community? In this world, there is simply no such thing as ghosts. All those ghosts stories are just the thoughts of crazy people. Hearing a child’s laughter might be because there just happened to be a child playing by the side of the road. Every day when you head back home, that child just happens to be playing there. As for why the child suddenly cried last night, that might be because he saw something scary in the forest and hence shouted out. So, you’re actually just scaring yourself.]

@money is useless and your life is fated: [Hehe, such an obvious ghost could also be talked into a real child. Upstairs, not only are you stubborn and unwilling to admit your mistake, your brain is simply not functioning! Do you take @cat is crazy for a fool? How can he not tell whether the child is real or not? If the child was playing on the side of the road, then how could he not see it? Also, if the child was on the side of the road, how could he hear it talking ‘beside his ear’? So, this is definitely a little ghost! This little ghost probably has some relation with @cat is crazy and would hence give him a warning and pick him up after school. @cat is crazy, you don’t need to be so afraid. Sometimes, people are every more frightening than ghosts. You have come across this little ghost so many times and yet it hasn’t harmed you. This indicates that it doesn’t have any bad intentions towards you. You should first think about how to guard against the person hiding in that dark road.]

As a result, the science and supernatural community once again started to tear at each other.

Zheng Tan looked at what @money is useless and your life is fated said and felt that this supernatural community member had pretty much covered the main points. He felt a little more reassured. Because of his physique, he had always been quite scared to touch on the supernatural since he was young. However, he still believed that there were ghosts in this world. But having so clearly encountered one this time, he felt a little panicked. Fortunately, this ghost shouldn’t have any bad intentions towards him. He would still be able to safely go to school. It was just that, even if he was sure that the ghost meant no harm, as a curious senior high school student, he started to wonder who that little ghost was and what exactly was going on with the female student’s disappearance.

Tonight, after Zheng Tan finished his self-study class, he feeling uncomfortable thinking that he would still need to pass through that strange path where someone went missing. Although he called himself a dignified and courageous man, looking at his own thin bamboo pole figure and lanky arms, he felt that he definitely wouldn’t be able to defeat a murderer. Hence, when he caught sight of the foolish bear-like figure of his good friend, Zhang Lian Fei, Zheng Tan rushed over without hesitation and said: “Da Fei! Do you want to come sleep over at my place tonight? I’ll invite you to eat my treasured Haagen-Dazs and family bucket!”

Recently, Zhang Lian Fei was in a good mood because Pang Fei’s matter was settled and he had gotten closer with his old man again. Hearing Zheng Tan’s invitation, he thought for a moment and accepted it. After all, his father was going out to discuss business tonight and he had nothing to do at home alone. Also, since the food was delivered to the door, how could he not eat it? However……

Zhang Lian Fei glanced suspiciously at Zheng Tan: “Zheng Hei Tan, do you have any ulterior motives? How could a stingy person like you suddenly become so generous? You’re inviting me to eat Haagen-Dazs and also a family bucket? Spit it out, I won’t beat you up!”

Zheng Tan directly choked when he heard this. Feeling a little guilty, he coughed and said: “What are you saying?! Am I that kind of person?! I just saw that you were in a good mood these days, unlike how you used to gloomily look at everyone, so I wanted to celebrate it for you! Look at you, so black-hearted.”

Hearing Zheng Tan say this, Zhang Lian Fei felt a little embarrassed. He put his arm around Zheng Tan’s shoulder and said: “Good brother! You still care about me! Go! If I don’t eat until you’re poor tonight, then I’m not your brother!”

Hearing this, Zheng Tan was simply weeping silent tears. Was it easy for him? In order to find a bodyguard, he must pay with his Haagen-Dazs and a family bucket! He hoped that the murderer would come back tonight and be sent flying by this strong bearish man who has learnt boxing before!

Hence, Zheng Tan and Zhang Lian Fei started to walk in the directly of Zheng Tan’s house. The two of them happily talked and laughed the entire way. It was just that when they arrived on that pitch black path near the forest not far from Zheng Tan’s house, Zhang Lian Fei distinctly noticed his friend’s body stiffen and his expression change.

“What’s wrong?” Zhang Lian Fei stared blankly for a moment. “Why do you suddenly look like someone has poked you in your chrysanthemum? Your expression is so ugly.”

Zheng Tan’s mouth twitched, especially wanting to give this guy a punch: “This road is too dark. I also heard that a girl suddenly disappeared around here yesterday, so I just want to be a little more careful, okay?! Perhaps someone would suddenly run out on this road to commit murder or something. If that happens, I can only rely on you!”

Hearing this, Zhang Lian Fei first shook his sturdy arms and then realised what Zheng Tan actually meant: “Is this because you’re afraid of walking down this road by yourself? That’s why you asked me to accompany you?! You actually said that this was because you wanted to celebrate for me!”

Zheng Tan coughed twice: “Don’t wrongly accuse me ah. I really do intend to celebrate with you. It’s just that for the past two days, this road hasn’t been peaceful at all! Are you still coming to eat or not? If you’re not coming, then it’s your loss!”

Zhang Lian Fei thought, since he’s already here, why would he give up halfway? He scoffed as he directly stepped foot onto that small road: “You just want me to accompany you. You say you’re a tough guy, but not only did you grow to be like a thin bamboo pole, you’re also scared of the dark! I…… go!!”

“What was that sound?!”

Saying this, Zhang Lian Fei suddenly took a step back as though someone had fiercely kicked him. His expression was grave as he vigilantly looked all around. Zheng Tan had pulled Zhang Lian Fei over to deal with that person hidden in the dark, but he didn’t expect that this guy who was robust like a bear would suddenly become so nervous. Seeing this, he instantly also tensed up: “What is it? Did you hear something?”

At this moment, Zhang Lian Fei felt extremely on edge. He could clearly see that there wasn’t anyone else besides Zheng Tan, but he could hear a child’s voice beside his ear. That voice seemed extremely anxious and was also crying.

[Don’t go any further! Hurry up and run away! It’s set its sight on you two!! Hurry up and run!]

Hearing this voice, Zhang Lian Fei felt like his head was about to explode. He pulled Zheng Tan and retreated a few steps. Then, under Zheng Tan’s nervous gaze, he asked: “Did you hear a child crying?”

Zhang Lian Fei then saw Zheng Tan’s face instantly pale.

“You also heard it?!”

Zhang Lian Fei’s face darkened. “You…… what the hell is going on?!”

Seeing Zhang Lian Fei look so grave, Zheng Tan was immediately terrified. Just when he wanted to tell Zhang Lian Fei about his experience over the past few days, Zhang Lian Fei suddenly felt a danger that sent chills up his spine. He immediately pulled Zheng Tan and ran. “It isn’t safe here. Let’s talk when we get to my house!”

It was not until the two of them got on a taxi and returned to Zhang Lian Fei’s place that Zheng Tan finally let out a sigh of relief and recounted his own experience and thoughts. After listening to him, Zhang Lian Fei simply couldn’t describe his strange mood. Why have the two friends beside him both run into supernatural events?! However, it was fortunate that he had already become acquainted with the two golden thighs in the previous incident, so it shouldn’t be hard to resolve this matter. However, it would now be most appropriate to tell Pang Fei about this situation.

Hence, Zhang Lian Fei looked at Zheng Tan in earnest, causing Zheng Tan to feel a little creeped out: “What?”

“So, do you believe there are ghosts in this world?”

Zheng Tan thought for a moment and cautiously nodded: “I guess so.”

“Oh, then that’s fine. In a moment, don’t be too shocked.” Zhang Lian Fei said and then put a call through to the Pang family’s house.

Half an hour later, when Pang Fei appeared in front of Zheng Tan looking very much alive, Zheng Tan looked at him in complete and utter shock, and then, pass out.

Pang Fei: “……”

“Ze, this guy is still such a coward! He’s not tough at all!”

Zhang Lian Fei nodded: “Right. But how come you got here so fast? Didn’t you become the master’s butler and guardian spirit?”

Pang Fei rolled his eyes: “Are you stupid?! Even if he’s a master, he also has a night life, okay?! My master and teacher are both young and upstanding; their nights are boundless. Regardless, they also need to properly show their affection for each other, isn’t that right? I don’t want to be a light bulb.”

Zhang Lian Fei: “……” Suddenly feel like I’ve been forcefully stuffed with dog food! Angry!

“Alright, let’s talk business.”
