Gou Ming found that the security guard at the gate was staring at the school gate with a vigilant face, and immediately extinguished the idea of entering through the main entrance.

He circled along the fence of Seirin High School, turned onto the path next to him, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

The path is only wide enough for three or four people to walk in parallel, and it is more of a narrow alley than a path.

A large rectangular iron bin sits next to a telephone pole in the middle of the narrow alley, and an upside-down paint can sits next to the bin.

Gou Ming turned his gaze to the nearby wall.

He noticed a few black footprints on the wall, and he immediately knew it.

This is obviously a secret passage opened up by the students of the school to go out without permission.

Gou Ming walked to the garbage can, tightened the backpack behind his back, and stepped on the paint bucket again. The paint bucket was stable and seemed to be filled with cement. The delinquent teenagers seemed to be well prepared.

As for why he said he was a bad boy. Gou Ming has never heard of any top student who has the habit of often jumping over the fence to skip class during class.

He looked up again, as if it was because of the weekend and the late hour, there was not even a single pedestrian at either end of the narrow alley.

Gou Ming no longer hesitated, directly used the paint bucket as a step, carefully stepped on the garbage can, and then leaned on the fence and peeked into the school.

Sure enough, there was a large iron box behind the wall.

Gou Ming observed it and found that there was no camera nearby, so he quickly climbed over the fence and fell to the ground.

It is located between the sides of the school building and the fence, and there are many trees planted nearby.

On one side is the school building, on the other side is a tall fence, and only a street lamp is in the narrow alley outside the wall.

The light shone in, but it was blocked by the trees, leaving a string of mottled and strange shadows. The breeze blew and the bushes rustled, as if something was hiding within.

Gou Ming was afraid that the bright light would attract the staff on duty, so he didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, and touched the back of the teaching building through the dim light.

Walking out of the narrow passage, the view instantly widened.

Behind the school building is a huge track and field field, and then the huge indoor gymnasium and the school building stand across the track and field field.

Gou Ming looked at the time, and it was already past 11 o'clock.

He didn't delay any longer, and immediately crossed over the track and field to the outside of the indoor gymnasium.

In order to avoid being discovered and causing unnecessary trouble, Gou Ming walked around the gymnasium.

In addition to this large indoor stadium, there is also a bow gym next to it and a baseball stadium in the back. It is worthy of a high-cost private school with complete facilities.

But the venues are now also empty.

After confirming, Gou Ming returned to the main entrance of the gymnasium again.

In general, large indoor stadiums function as both basketball halls and indoor auditoriums.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as the school's basketball is terrible, but the volleyball is very good, and then the indoor gymnasium will be converted into a volleyball hall.

But for a new school, everything needs to start over.

Coming to the outside of the gymnasium, Gou Ming found a lock hanging on the door.

Without any hesitation, Gou Ming directly pulled out the crowbar from his backpack, inserted it into the lock ring, and pried it hard.

Click!

With a soft sound, the lock fell to the ground.

"Sorry to interrupt."

Gou Ming said casually, without sincerity.

Push open the door and a huge indoor basketball court comes into view.

The floor is covered with a polished wooden floor, and a standard basketball court is painted in white paint, with two basketball hoops protruding from the ceiling.

Behind one of the basketball hoops, directly in the direction of the gate, is a stage with a lectern on it.

On the second floor is a row of improvised stands with railings.

If there is enough light, the basketball arena will look very large and magnificent.

But now......

The inside of the basketball arena was pitch black, except for a faint light coming in through the windows and open doors, reflecting an eerie dark gold on the wooden floor.

The curtain on the stage took on a dark red hue, swaying slightly in the darkness, as if someone was hiding behind it.

The doors on either side of the arena were hidden in the darkness, vaguely tinged with a dead gray.

Creak!

The floor seemed to be too clean, and as soon as Gou Ming stepped on it, he immediately made a soft noise.

The sound instantly spread through the darkness, echoing in the empty basketball hall, and it seemed that more than one pair of feet were moving on it.

Gou Ming walked into the basketball hall, and then closed the door behind him.

Suddenly, the entire basketball hall became darker. All that was left was a little light coming through the second-floor window.

Gou Ming turned on the flashlight, looked around, and found several box-shaped carts full of basketballs in the far corner.

He walked over, picked up a basketball from the box, and walked to the center circle of the basketball court.

Gou Ming put the basketball aside, then reached for the candle, took out another lighter, lit the candle, and then fixed the candle to the floor with melted wax oil.

Then Gou Ming took off his backpack and put it on the ground, and briefly moved his wrists and ankles.

Gou Ming was about to pick up the basketball on the ground, and after thinking about it, he turned off the flashlight again. Suddenly, darkness came to him like a tidal wave again.

Instead of bringing light, the faint glow of the candle darkens the area outside the center circle.

Gou Ming stood in the middle circle and looked out, and there seemed to be a blurry shadow all around, and he couldn't see anything very really.

There seemed to be something hidden in the shadows, hiding in the shadows and peeking at him.

Gou Ming patted the imperial guard on his chest, touched the sticky note in his pocket again, took a deep breath, and then picked up the basketball and slapped it down......

Bang!

A crisp sound shattered the silence of the basketball arena like a bomb.

Then there was a continuous whistling sound.

The wind from the basketball blew the candle flame from side to side, as if it would be extinguished in the next second. The light from the candles flickered on and off, and the shadows around them continued to writhe, a strange scene of demons dancing wildly.

Gou Ming remembered the task's request that 'the candle extinguish itself', and couldn't help but secretly regret it.

'If you had known, you wouldn't have saved money, but you would have bought a windproof candle......

Fortunately, the basketball was far enough away that the wind was not strong enough to extinguish the candle.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the empty basketball court, the sound of basketball slapping is constantly sounding.

I don't know if it's my own illusion, Gou Ming always feels that this voice is farther than he remembers, and the voice is more ethereal.

It's as if he's not shooting in a basketball arena, but in a lonely, empty mausoleum.

In the darkness, the mechanical and boring movements are repeated, and time seems to be infinitely extended.

Rustling! Rustling!

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of fabric rubbing in the distance!
