Chapter 95: The Secret Passage
Out of the hospital, Karoka and Ferlaya walked silently along the paths of the hospital.
In the end, it was Kai Ruot who took the lead in speaking: "Fairporay's strange behavior must have something to do with the haunting of the school in recent times." β
Fairlea nodded in agreement and said, "I think so too, the time of the haunted school coincides with the time of his hospitalization, and it must have something to do with him...... I wondered, what was he doing in the middle of the night at school? He quietly followed us to the Golden Pagoda, which really didn't look like a patient's move...... He must have ulterior motives, and we must be careful about this guy in the future. β
"I always thought that Fairporai must have been looking for something," said Kerrotte, "or he would not have been jumping up and down the school in the middle of the night while he was recovering." I heard from the security guard that the school's Golden Pagoda neighborhood was the most haunted, and maybe what he was looking for was really related to the Golden Pagoda. β
Fairlea then proposed, "Let's go to my godmother and listen to her opinion." β
Karot nodded approvingly, and the two of them walked together towards Fairconey's dormitory.
-
When Fairconnie opened the door and saw the two of them coming, she asked with concern, "Have you two come to me in such a hurry to find me?" β
"Not yet." The two replied almost simultaneously.
"I knew β the school's management system reported that you two hadn't had lunch, and I guessed you two were going to come to me. I've got your lunch ready. Fairconey said, pointing to the sumptuous meal already on the table, and said, "I'll wait for you to arrive, and then we can eat." β
"Thank you Connie, godmother!" Fairlea said embarrassedly, "Godmother is so caring! β
-
The three of them quickly sat down at the dining table, eating and talking.
Fairconie asked, "You must have come to me with a problem, is something wrong?" β
"Godmother guessed right," said Ferlaya, "we do have something to look for youβabout Ferporai." β
"Fairporay? Let me think about itβis it because of the school's recent night haunting? β
"That's right! How did godmother know? Leia asked, surprised.
"In fact, I've already found out that it's him through the school's surveillance analysis." Fairconnie smiled lightly and replied.
"Then why don't you stop him?"
"We're watching him and seeing what he wants to do."
"I suspect that his purpose has something to do with the Golden Tower. β
"Jinta?" Fairconie muttered.
"This morning he followed me and Lea all the way to the Golden Pagoda on the mountain. As for his purpose, it is not clear. Kerot said.
Fairconey thought for a moment and said, "Since he wants to follow you, you will not go up the mountain road from now on, but go straight up the mountain through the secret passage, so that he will not be able to follow you." β
"Secret passage?" The two asked almost at the same time.
Fairconey said, "Yes, the Secret Passage. The secret passage from the school to the Golden Pagoda is under the hidden room behind my room, from where you can enter and exit from there. β
Fairlear asked with a look of surprise: "There is such a shortcut?" It's the first time I've heard of ......."
Fairconnie said with a serious face: "This golden pagoda has a deep relationship with me, so it took a long time to build this shortcut, and it seems that it can be used by you in the future, and it will not be in vain for all the efforts I have laid out earlier." β
As she spoke, Fairconey pointed her finger at the wall, and a light-screened PINpad appeared on the wall. She quickly typed in a string of numbers, and the cabinet hidden in the wall was opened. She walked over to the cabinet, took out two gold fingers from it, and handed them to the two of them.
She told them, "This golden finger is the key to all the secret doors." As soon as you stand in the area where the door is opened, pointing your finger at a hidden spot in the room, the door will open automatically. β
-
After lunch, they quickly entered the secret passage under the guidance of Fairconnie. In the identity entry place of the secret passage, the figures of Kairot and Fairraiya were recorded. After their identities are confirmed, as long as they enter the identification area, they can use the golden fingers of the two of them to open any door in the secret passage at will.
This secret passage is not very long, but there are many doors in it, and if it weren't for Fairconnie's reminder, they wouldn't have been able to find the north at all. They reached the end of the secret passage, that is, to the foot of the mountain where they had already arrived.
Fairconie reminded them, "Now that you've come here, it's time for another goldfinger." This is the gate to the Golden Pagoda. β
With another golden finger, Kairote opened the door to the Golden Tower. Not far from the gate was the light-speed elevator leading to the Golden Pagoda, and they quickly reached the top of the Golden Pagoda by taking the light-speed elevator.
It was indeed much faster than the one they had taken from the foot of the mountain. For some time after that, Kerrot and Ferlaya reported to Connie's house every day, took shortcuts to the Golden Pagoda, and continued their spiritual practice intently.
