15. Two Campus Legends
Legend has it that it was during the early days of Mito University, and today these red-walled and white-tiled buildings have not yet appeared, and the seniors of the past walk among the old buildings crawling with creepers. ”
Ling Yuyu tried her best to make her voice sound low and serious, "At that time, the campus was not as vast as it is now, and there was only the Hexi campus. Today's Hedong Campus was built more than 20 years ago. Therefore, the Hedong community is also called the new campus, and the Hexi campus becomes the old campus. About this, I think you should have heard about it. ”
Lu Xiaohan was caught in the heart by her tone, and nodded nervously, "I've heard of it." ”
"Then have you ever seen the abandoned building at the entrance of the Hexi campus?"
"Look...... Seen. ”
"It was a former ethnic minority restaurant, which specialized in serving ethnic minority food, and it was originally overcrowded at noon, but then it was demolished for some reason. And the abandoned badminton hall I am talking about is behind this abandoned building, which is the legendary ......"
Lu Xiaohan trembled and said, "Monster Prison?"
"That's right!" Ling Yuyu's voice suddenly rose an octave, startling Lu Xiaohan and screaming as he hugged the sofa pillow.
"Today's Yokai Prison used to be a place for students to carry out activities, but do you know why the school removed this area from the campus and turned it into a Yokai Prison?"
"I don't know......," Lu Xiaohan looked frightened, "Does it have anything to do with that abandoned badminton hall?"
"Congratulations on your right answer!" Ling Yuyu nodded and took a deep breath, "Speaking of this abandoned badminton hall, I also listened to my seniors. I heard that there were once two people in the badminton club who secretly burned the key in order to play for free, and waited until the teacher left, and then sneaked in to play. ”
"This incident was analyzed from the key to open the door that was found on their bodies when they were later discovered. It's just that I don't know why, the key didn't come to use that night, and they didn't escape. ”
"Wait!" Lu Xiaohan's eyes widened, "The corpse is dead?"
"Yes. Ling Yuyu said solemnly, "It was after this incident that the history of this badminton hall gradually came to light, and it turned out that it used to be an execution ground." A long time ago, in a chaotic era, even Mito University had not yet been established. It's a prison where prisoners are taken and shot, blood is splattered, and they don't see what they do. After the establishment of Mito University, a badminton hall was erected, and it is said that this badminton hall was specially built in an octagonal shape to suppress the souls of the dead underground. ”
After this incident, coupled with this ancient legend that seems to be true and false, the students at that time talked about it, and the school abandoned the badminton hall based on various considerations. Later, minority restaurants were also inexplicably abandoned. This area has been transformed into a yokai prison. ”
"However, it is said that when you walk across the stone bridge in front of the entrance of the Hexi campus at night, in front of the abandoned building of the minority restaurant, you can still hear the sound of two students swinging their rackets and playing balls, once, twice, three times, as if they never stop, following your buttocks, until you go to bed at night, and your dreams are full of this strange sound. ”
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Lu Xiaohan's eyes widened, she really heard this strange voice, but Ling Yuyu clearly closed her mouth, it wasn't her, so where did this voice come from!
"Did you hear that?" she said to Ling Yuyu.
"What?" Ling Yuyu looked puzzled.
"The voice. ”
"You're hallucinating. ”
"Really! I really heard it!" Lu Xiaohan was so anxious that he almost didn't hear it
Cry out.
"Is that the voice?" Ling Yuyu suddenly raised her hand, a can in her hand, and her fingertips gently tapped the body of the can, "Bang, bang, bang......"
Lu Xiaohan was stunned.
Then a look of shame and anger appeared on her face, she threw Ling Yuyu down like a hungry tiger pounced, and the two girls "tore" together, "Senior sister, you dare to scare me! I'm not done with you!"
"Didn't you say you wanted to hear ghost stories?" Ling Yuxuan was a mecha student after all, so he easily pressed Lu Xiaohan under him, and said with a smile, "I thought you took the initiative to bring it up, how bold you could be, I didn't think that a single can could scare you." ”
"That'...... Is that a can!" Lu Xiaohan retorted angrily, "You are, that's ......" It was a long time since she was stuck, there was a term she had learned in a professional class, but she couldn't remember it at this moment.
"Why isn't it a can?" Ling Yuxuan's face was full of innocence.
Lu Xiaohan's lips trembled with anger: "Hmph, I'll tell you a campus legend next, don't be scared and cry!"
"You tell me?" Ling Yuxuan raised her eyebrows, "You've only been here for less than half a year, and I basically know all the campus legends you know." ”
"That's not necessarily!" Lu Xiaohan stretched out his finger and shook it, his expression was unfathomable, "My campus legend happened in the past two months, didn't your sophomore mecha department go to the Yonggu Great Wall some time ago, I definitely don't know!"
"Oh? Ling Yuyu was interested.
"Have you ever heard of the incident of a couple throwing themselves into the river on campus?"
"This ...... I haven't heard of it yet. Ling Yuxuan frowned, "In the past two months since I left, there have been dead people in the school again?"
"Dangchang!"
There was a soft thud.
The two followed the prestige, Luo Yu bent down and was picking up the kitchen knife, she was just cutting fruit, but her hand slipped, and the kitchen knife fell to the ground.
"Are you okay, Xiaoyu?" Lu Xiaohan's tone was worried.
"It's okay!" Luo Yu shook his hand, "You talk about yours, I'll cut fruit for everyone to eat." ”
"Where did the fruit come from?" Lu Xiaohan wondered.
Besides, Qi Qi neatly cleaned up the last bit of the epilogue, these fruits were prepared by the third uncle, he originally planned to use them to squeeze juice, but there are many people today, so let's use them as a meal dish.
"It's already at home. Ling Yuyu urged, "Don't worry about this, you can go on!"
"Okay!" Lu Xiaohan coughed twice, and cleared his throat like Ling Yuyu just now, "This story happened one day in October, the protagonist is a senior of the drama club and a girl of the same level of mine who just joined the club, because the senior is dead, the deceased is the biggest, so I won't say his real name, and call him A for the time being." For the same reason, the girl is B. Can you understand that?"
"Nonsense!" Ling Yuyu rolled her eyes, "I'm not stupid!"
"Okay. Lu Xiaohan nodded, "What about this A, because he is handsome and talented, and he is the protagonist in the year-end drama at that time, so it has attracted many freshman girls who have just joined the club." B is one of them. Early one morning in October, at four o'clock, A and B went to the riverside grove, and only they knew what they were doing. ”
"I still have some people who guessed afterwards that B should have been pregnant with A's child at the time, so she was very anxious and asked A to come out to discuss the matter, but A turned out to be a well-known scumbag, so she let B have an abortion without saying a word. B is a girl with a strong personality, so she threatens A with suicide, but A doesn't eat this set, turns around and leaves. Who would have thought that B had great strength, and he dragged A and jumped into the river together, and both of them died. ”
"However, this is not the end of it!"
Seeing Ling Yuyu's impatient expression, Lu Xiaohan changed her words and whetted her appetite again.
A week after this incident, another couple died in the river on campus, this time the two of them, not as much love and hatred as A and B, they are recognized as a model couple, sticking together every day, there will be no contradictions at all, let alone contradictions that lead to death. When the river salvage team on campus fished them up, the bones of both of them were quite terrifying, as if they had been bitten by some kind of wild beast, and the bones could not be put together at all, and the police later confirmed their identities through investigation. ”
"And guess what?"
"Huh?" Ling Yuyu was silent.
"Two weeks later, there are dead people again! It's still a river in the school, it's still a couple! This is the third case in two months!" Lu Xiaohan said quickly, "This time the school finally realized the seriousness of the problem and urgently blocked the river in the school, senior sister, have you been to the school since you came back?"
"I've been there, but I haven't been to the river on campus, and I've been walking around the school building. ”
"If you go to the river on campus, you'll find that it's so tightly sealed with yellow seals that no one is allowed to enter. If you want to cross the bridge to return to the Hexi campus, you must take the other side of the detour. ”
"So...... Is it a monster committing a crime?" Ling Yuyu tentatively asked, "Didn't you commit suicide for love?"
"It's not clear. Lu Xiaohan shook his head, "There are legends among classmates that there is a man-eating monster hidden in the river in the school, and it eats those couples who show affection." Some people also say that it is the first pair of dead men and women who haunt them, and the women are not used to infatuated men, so they drag men into the water, while men die blindly, hate all women, and drag women into the water. ”
"Ah, male and female, or is it the ghost world?" Ling Yuxuan complained powerlessly.
"Who knows. Lu Xiaohan shrugged, "Anyway, this matter has not yet been decided, and there has been a lot of discussion about this matter in the school recently." Many people didn't dare to go alone when they went back to the dormitory at night, so they all walked together in groups. ”
"That's your freshman!" Ling Yuxuan squinted at her, "The seniors of the sophomore and junior years are not so timid, if they are really monsters, they will kill monsters, if they are ghosts, they will kill ghosts, only you freshmen will be frightened by this." ”
"Hmph!" Lu Xiaohan turned his head, "I see senior sister, didn't you subconsciously hold your breath just now!"
"I'm here to cheer you up!"
"Come on, just say it if you're afraid, I'm not going to laugh at you!"
"I'm not afraid!"
"You have!"
"I didn't!"
The two suddenly quarreled like schoolchildren.
Besides, Qi Qi propped his chin and looked at them thoughtfully, the campus legend that Lu Xiaohan told just now was almost the same as the unknown mission he took over at the Demon Hunter Gathering, and even added a lot of information, the intelligence information he had on hand did not mention the two deaths in the back, presumably if it was mentioned, it would not necessarily be an unknown mission.
Thinking that the task was released two months ago, Qi Qi understood that the person who issued the task should not have known about the two deaths that happened later. He/she may have released the quest just for fun, to make the campus legend more popular, and to explore the truth behind the death. It's just that I didn't expect that this matter became more and more intense, and even attracted the attention of the school.
