The dance lasted until late at night.

As the protagonist of the night, Green did not choose the celebrities brought by the powerful, but danced with a lady of unknown nationality for one night.

This aroused the interest of many people, and they all inquired about Fran's identity.

"Tired, aren't you?" Green, noticing that the tip of Fran's nose was already sweating, slowed down his pace and led her off the dance floor.

Green took out a silk scarf from her pocket to wipe away Fran's sweat, and she looked at Green with a smile, like an ordinary girl looking at her sweetheart.

"I forgot that your physique can't be compared to me, I'm sorry to drag you for so long. Green wiped Fran's sweat and said apologetically.

"It's okay, I had a great night. But it's late, and my father and I will go first, otherwise Dolan will have another upset at home alone. Fran gently lifted the corner of her floral dress and saluted Grimm goodbye.

"I'll send you back. ”

"No need, you are the master of the party, how can you go first. ”

Fran politely rejected Green.

Seeing this, Green couldn't force it anymore, and after watching Fran and Duncan leave the hotel, he turned back to Poru and joined him to see off the important guests.

After a while, most of the guests left one after another.

There are also many people who walk towards the hotel's casino in groups, and the golden tickets keep taking out of their pockets.

And the hotel rooms are also very hot tonight, and many people live in the hotel directly with their female companions after the dance. Fortunately, the soundproofing was deliberately done during the construction, and no sound came out from the corridor of the guest room, which made many people very satisfied.

With Grimm and Poru bidding farewell, Suzu boarded a tall black moire carriage and quickly disappeared at the intersection under the pull of four horses.

There is a lot of space in the carriage, and there are exquisite magic crystal lamps hanging to illuminate the interior of the carriage.

Ling leaned on the sofa casually, with double ** forks, revealing a smooth and delicate calf from the fork of the cheongsam.

Eighteen knelt respectfully to the side, even if a pair of perfect jade feet were placed in front of him like this, he still didn't dare to take a second look, lowered his head, and clinged to the floor.

"You are so majestic, you openly lose the face of the palace, and I don't know how many people will laugh at the palace for not being strict. ”

Suzu didn't look at Eighteen on the ground, just stared at the scenery flying by outside the window, and his tone was extremely calm, but Eighteen couldn't help but shed a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead.

"Your Highness, that person is just a small country man, and he dares to ignore the favor of His Highness, and the villain is really angry for a while...... Please also ask Your Highness to punish you. ”

Ling didn't speak, just glanced at him casually, and then said faintly: "There is no criminal law hall here, so you can go back and get ten bone breakers as punishment." ”

Recalling the horror of the Bone Breaker Whip, Eighteen couldn't help but stir in his throat, but still respectfully kowtowed to the bell, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward." ”

"Get up. ”

"Yes. ”

Eighteen stood up and stood aside, his head bowed and motionless like a sculpture.

......

After sending the guests away, Green said goodbye to Boru and took Hughes, who had eaten dessert at the hotel for a night, into the carriage back to school.

Maybe you should build a house in the city with a special carriage.

An idea suddenly popped into Green's mind, but then he shook his head again, at present, the academy is the safest place, and no force dares to do anything in the academy.

Even the Morley family just sent a group of excellent students from the academy to poach a group of outstanding students, and was discovered by the academy for bribing the staff to steal information, and gave the Morley family a warning during the qualifying match, and the Morley family did not dare to say anything.

At this time, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and the carriage was very fast, and it did not take long to come to the academy.

Hexius got out of the car and walked into the academy through the side door, where an elderly doorman was sitting in a chair with his back to the two of them, with a few bare hairs left, shaking his head and humming a little tune, completely indifferent to who came in.

Walking in the empty campus, the cool breeze of midnight blows, bringing a hint of chill.

The roadside is lit only by a faint kerosene lamp at a distance away. Tonight's clouds were so thick that the moonlight was tightly obscured, and the two of them could only find their way by the faint light.

At first, there were one or two students who returned late, and it didn't take long for them to leave in other directions.

As I walked, a huge circular building appeared on the road, which was a school building that I often visited on weekdays. There were six huge exits scattered around the perimeter, and in the darkness they looked like giant mouths one after another.

Outside the teaching building is a circular road, which unfolds around the building, paved with bluestone slabs, which is very wide.

"The school building looks quite majestic at night, but the atmosphere is a little eerie. I heard that there would be a night watchman at night, but I don't know why I didn't see it. ”

Hughes said as he looked up at the school building.

"Maybe it's lazy, no one dares to make trouble in the academy anyway. Green shrugged.

The two of them just glanced at it casually for a few moments, and then continued on their way, and not far behind the teaching building was the dormitory where they were located.

After walking around the circular school building for a while, a faint mist began to appear in the air.

The fog drifted on the side of the road, obscuring the already dim streetlights, and only an orange light could be seen flickering in the sky in the distance.

Low shrubs are planted on both sides of the road, and the students pass through them, and many paths are trodden out.

"Someone seems to be up ahead?" said Hughes suddenly, raising his hand not far away.

Green listened to Hughes's reminder and looked intently, a lone white figure standing on the side of the road, walking unhurriedly, unable to see clearly in the darkness of the night.

Wandering around campus alone so late?

Green felt that something was wrong in his heart, and Xius next to him wanted to go up to say hello, but was stopped by Green.

"Maybe people come out alone to take a walk when they have something on their minds, so don't bother. ”

Theseus nodded.

The two continued to walk, deliberately keeping a certain distance from the white figure in front of them.

The ring road around the school building was very long, and the two of them walked like this for a long time......

......

No, no, why hasn't this road been done yet?

Green was startled, and his scalp exploded instantly like a basin of ice water.

"Hughes, Hughes!"

He looked to the side, and Hughes was half-asleep and half-asleep, walking unconsciously, as if sleepwalking.

Green grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him violently, calling his name.

"Hmm...... This is...... Where?"

Xius rubbed his eyes as if he had woken up, looked around, and asked confusedly.

"Do you remember what you're doing tonight?" Green grabbed Hughes by the shoulder, his eyes solemn, staring into his eyes.

"Tonight...... Come to the hotel tonight for the celebration!"

Xius was agitated, and his eyes instantly cleared.

"What's going on?" Theseus slowly touched the long sword at his waist.

"I'm afraid I'll have to ask him. Green turned his head and looked at the white figure in front of him.

After walking for so long, the distance between the figure and them remained the same, and even the posture was the same as at the beginning.

The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of solemnity in each other's eyes.

Each unsheathed his sword slightly, and the two quickened their pace towards the white figure.

And then the strange thing is that no matter how fast they go, they can't catch up with the figure.

Boom.

Green couldn't wait, although the Saint Elephant Fighting Qi in his body hadn't recovered much, he still used it without reservation, and his feet stomped heavily on the ground, making a loud noise. With the momentum, Green rushed forward, this time slowly catching up with the white figure.

The Xius next to him also caught up, side by side with Green, and the speed was not slow at all.

The white figure didn't seem to hear the sound behind it, and still swayed and walked unhurriedly.

It's close.

It's closer.

Green finally caught up with him, reaching out and grabbing it hard.

"Who the hell are you?!"

“......！”

In the shocked gaze of the two, the figure was grabbed by Green, slowly dispersed, and turned into a puff of mist.

The humanoid mist turned around strangely, revealing a few hollows in its round features, forming a funny smile like a clown.

Hee-hee......

Hee-hee-hee-hee......

It seemed to let out a few shrill laughs, but when you listened closely, nothing came of it.

It slowly dissipated in the air, the hollowness on its face was widened little by little, and the original funny smile gradually became hideous.

Until it completely dissipated, Green saw a hint of mockery in its last look, which was a very strange feeling, it was just a mist, but it seemed to have life.

Green and Hughes stood in place, looking at each other, silent.

After a long time, Hughes opened his mouth in a hoarse voice, "Do you remember what time it was when we went back to the academy?"

Green thought about it carefully, "It seems to be twelve o'clock in the night, and I glanced at the clock as I left the hotel, and it should be this point when I go back to the college." ”

"Do you remember the doorman in the janitor's room? ”

Hughes asked another question that didn't know why.

"I remember. Green nodded, his eyes a little complicated, he had already remembered something.

"The academy has always had two janitors on duty together, and I've never seen the man tonight...... I've heard some weird things about the academy, but I didn't expect it to be true......"

"Is this really the Academy?"

A question suddenly popped up in the hearts of the two.

Grimm stood for a moment, his eyes gradually becoming firm, "Let's get out of here first." ”

Xius nodded cautiously in agreement.

They didn't go any further down the ring road, because the two of them walked for a long time without finding an exit.

From the path that had been trampled out of the bushes, the two walked out.

Walking through the bushes, there is a small forest.

At some point, the fog grew heavier and heavier, spreading through the trees, making it almost impossible to see the way.

After walking in the grove for a while, Hughes suddenly asked suspiciously, "Is it raining?"

Green reached out and poked into the air, "No." ”

"So what is this......

Hughes stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, and handed it to Green with something wet all over his hand.

By the faint light in the distance, Green could see the puddle of blood on Hughes's hand.

Without a moment's hesitation, the two of them looked overhead.

I saw a dense body hanging from the branches, and I couldn't see the edge at a glance, and when I saw the two of them raise their heads, they struggled one after another, as if they wanted to jump off the tree, but they were tightly hung by the rope.

"Let's go!"

Green burst into a shout, pulled up Hughes and rushed out, countless blood falling from the trees, drenching both of them.

With his strengthened five senses, Green could barely see the direction and led Hughes all the way to finally run out of the woods.

"Whew...... Whew......"

The two of them gasped heavily, and looked back at the woods in disbelief, all the corpses had disappeared strangely, only a breeze blew through and rustled the leaves.

Green was trying to discern something from the woods when he heard Hugh's voice.

"Green...... We seem to be back again......"

！

Green turned his head, and the tall circular school building appeared in front of them again, and in a window on the fourth floor, there was a strange burst of light at this moment.

A melodious piano sound came slowly.
