Chapter 46: St. Mary's School Destroyed by Fire

Is the headmistress back?

I didn't dare open the door, so I found a place and hid.

On one side of the window, there was a screen, and that place was perfect for hiding. So, I hid behind the screen and sneaked my way to the door.

However, the man only knocked a few times before stopping.

After a long time, no sound was heard.

Obviously, the person who knocked on the door was not the headmaster, and she couldn't have been without the key to her own door. If you forget to bring it with you, even if you knock on the door, it's useless

I was going to wait here for Mary to come, but after waiting for a long time, not only did Mary not come, but the headmaster did not come back.

Could it be that the person who knocked on the door just now was Mary?

I suddenly regretted it, why didn't I just open the door and take a look?

However, I thought it was a little weird.

At this time, it is already late at night, who will knock on the door of the principal's office?

The person who knocked on the door couldn't have been Mary, and it couldn't have been some other teacher. Could it be that the guy who knocked on the door was a ghost, or was it the man in black?

The man in black, did he come with him too?

The thought of this man in black makes me feel uneasy. I really don't want to run into him again, and of course, the three three-headed dogs that could come out of the fog at any moment!

I'll stay in this office and wait until dawn. But how do I pass the time during this long night? Besides, if someone comes in tomorrow and finds me, won't I be taken for a thief?

No, I'd better get out of here and go to No. 21 Ping'an Street! I'm going to find Mary as soon as possible, maybe she's in danger right now!"

But the man in black, will he just be guarding outside the house? If the person who knocked on the door just now was him, wouldn't it be tantamount to throwing myself into the net when I went out?

Just when I was hesitating and hesitating, suddenly, a sharp voice came from outside the window!

I pricked up my ears and listened carefully, and I couldn't help but be surprised.

That voice was like the siren of a police car! However, it is not the sound of a siren, what is it?

I walked to the window, but it wouldn't open at all, and I could only look through the blurry glass.

Outside the window, in the thick white fog, a little light suddenly appeared, it was a red light.

It looked like the light on the roof of the car!

The red light came this way, closer and closer, and the sharp voice got closer and closer!

Suddenly, I heard it, and I knew what it was!

That's not the sound of a police car, it's the sound of a fire truck! That red light is the flashing lights on the roof of the fire truck!

I leaned closer to the windowpane and looked out, only to see that there seemed to be a fire in the thick fog.

That's right, it's right outside, and it looks like there's a fire!

Could it be that there is a fire outside?

I was stunned, and I felt a strange smell coming from behind me, and when I turned around, I was stunned!

I saw that this luxuriously decorated principal's office was completely changed in an instant!

Here, there are traces of fire everywhere! The table, the chair, the bookshelf, and the screen had all been burned to the ground, and the room was filled with the smell of smoke!

Oh my God, here, what's going on here?

Could it be that this is my hallucination again?

I rubbed my eyes and squeezed my arms again, it hurt. However, when I opened my eyes, I still saw a room in ruins that had been burned to the ground.

This office was completely ruined, destroyed by a fire!

Strangely, there was not a single fire in the office, as if it had burned out.

"Don't litter cigarette butts, if you throw them everywhere, this place will catch fire!"

Suddenly, this sentence popped up in my ears again.

I was so stunned that I screamed.

"Who? Who's here? ”

But no one could answer me.

When I looked back, I found that even the window pane had been burned and melted. Cold wind and fog, from the broken window, poured ferociously into the room.

This time, I finally saw clearly: outside the window, in the thick fog, there was fire everywhere!

The entire campus turned into a sea of fire! The piercing whistle of the fire truck, mixed with it, exudes a desolate and terrifying atmosphere!

It's on fire outside, I'm going to get out of here right now!

I was about to rush out the door when something suddenly occurred to me, so I turned back to my desk.

The desks had long since been burned to charcoal, and the books had been burned to shreds. However, the picture frame was still there, falling to the ground, and the glass was shattered.

I picked up the frame from the ground, only to find that the group photo had already been burned black.

I don't know what's going on, but I actually want to take this group photo out of this frame.

I finally pulled it out, but as soon as the photo reached my hand, it caught fire!

I was startled and instinctively let go of my hand.

The photo of the fire fell to the ground, and soon, it was burned to ashes.

It seems that God doesn't want me to take this picture, I can't help it, I have to get out of here.

Just then, suddenly, I heard a voice in the room, a man's voice.

"Hey, 119? I'm here at St. Mary's English School and we've got a fire here! The fire is big! Very big! A man coughed and cried, "Come on!" Hurry up! ”

Suddenly, the voice stopped abruptly, leaving only the busy sound of the phone.

However, I could only hear the voice, but I could not see the man who was calling for help. It's as if what I just heard was just a recording.

St. Mary's English School? Here, St. Mary's English School? Strange, isn't this Dead Town Middle School, how did it become St. Mary's English School again?

Just as I was puzzled, suddenly, I noticed that on the floor, there was an old newspaper that had been crumpled.

It is strange that this newspaper was not burned to ashes.

I stepped forward, crouched down, and picked up the yellowed old newspaper, as if it had been a century ago.

However, when I saw the contents of this old newspaper, I was stunned.

This is a news report with the headline "A huge fire broke out in this town, and more than 150 teachers and students died in the fire!" ”

The following content is even more shocking.

"A fire broke out at St. Mary's English School in the town, and all the school buildings were razed to the ground in a fire in the early hours of this morning, and all teachers, staff and students, including the principal, died in their sleep, except for two teachers at the school, a man and a woman, and a female student. Because the fire broke out at exactly 3:06 a.m., it was the time when people were asleep, and the school's student dormitories and faculty buildings were locked from the outside, so even if the teachers and students could wake up from their sleep, they would not have time to escape. The cause of the fire is under further investigation, but according to people familiar with the matter, it is very likely that someone littered cigarette butts to cause the fire. ”

"3:06?" I was taken aback when I saw what was written in the newspaper about this time.

3:06 a.m.? Isn't that the time shown in the clock on the classroom wall that I saw in my dreams?

306,306,306!

Suddenly, I felt a chill on the back of my neck, as if a slippery little snake had crawled up from my back!

How could it be such a coincidence? The time of the fire at St. Mary's English School was exactly 3:06 a.m.?

So, almost all the teachers and students in this school have been burned to death? Including that headmistress?

Here, it's actually a school with a dead person?

Suddenly, I thought of the strange things I had encountered in this school before.

Three-headed dog? How can there be a three-headed dog here? That's a hellhound, and it only happens in hell! Legend has it that the three-headed dog guards the exit of hell and prevents the souls of the dead from leaving hell! Could it be that they are here to guard the more than 150 souls that were burned to death?

Also, those schoolgirls eating in the cafeteria? Why can I see them, but they can't see me? I now understand that they are all dead, and all I see is the impression of them eating in the school cafeteria. Or maybe it's their ghosts!

Also, the chef who had no face and lost his eyeballs and teeth, maybe he was the chef here, also died in the fire, right?

Could it be that all I saw before were ghosts? I saw a ghost?

The thought of this makes my hands and feet cold!

By the way, one more point, why is this school St. Mary's English School? St. Mary, St. Mary, strange, how can there be a "Mary" here?

Could it be that there is no such person as Mary here? Mary, is nothing more than the abbreviation of the school "St. Mary"?

I picked up the newspaper again and continued to read it, trying to find more clues.

It's a pity that apart from the above paragraph, there is no more valuable clue in this newspaper.

Still, on the back of this newspaper, in an inconspicuous corner, I found another piece that shocked me.

It's a notice, a very short police notice.

"Warning: The police in this town reminded that there have been several rape and murder cases in this town recently, and the victims are some underage girls in school. The police remind all members of the public to take good care of your children and do not let them go out alone! ”

This notice is actually the same as the content of the dossier I saw at the town police station. In this town, there is already a terrible murderer, and his target is those schoolgirls.

I thought again about the wanted man I had seen at the door of the police station, and the bearded man in the wanted post.

Although the wanted warrant did not state what the guy was wanted for, his photo also appeared in the case file of the rape * murder case. Obviously, the police suspect that this bearded man is a suspect in these rape and murder cases!

A bearded man? Wanted?

Now, how is there another case of fire accident here?

This town is really messy!

Now that this office is in ruins, I certainly have no reason to stay here any longer.

So, I pushed the door open and left the office.

I thought there must have been ruins outside, or maybe the eight black gates had appeared.

However, as soon as I walked out the door, I was stunned.

The labyrinth of the eight doors is gone, and the aisle is gone! In front of me, there is a campus full of fog?

I'm standing on the steps outside the office building!

What's going on?

I was stunned, and when I looked back, I found that behind me was indeed the office building! But the strange thing is that this building turned out to be in good condition, and there is no trace of being burned by the fire!

Strange, isn't it on fire here? But why is there not a trace of overfire?

I looked around again, and there was nothing but silence except for the fog. Not to mention fire, even a little fire, nothing.

No way? Could it be that the fire I just saw was my hallucination······
