Chapter 862 - Chen Ge’s Plan (2/2)
The old headmaster knew about the fact that Fan Yu entered the school and knew that Mu Yang High School’s appearance in the School of the Afterlife is due to Fan Yu’s memory. He would not have found out all that alone, so the biggest possibility is that someone told him about this.
At the place, the only people who would help the old headmaster are my parents. First Yin Hong and then Fan Yu. Are they trying to tell me something through the old headmaster?
Chen Ge could not guess his parent’s thoughts.
Are they trying to tell me something through my interaction with Yin Hong and Fan Yu? After this mission is over, the ghost fetus might come to find me. I don’t have much time left. Is it because they are worried about me and wish for me to know about the fetus’ weakness through the painter? After all, the ghost fetus is my shadow, and in a way, he is my darker self.
After knowing certain things, Chen Ge slowly calmed down. He pulled the headmaster out from the well. “We will go back to the school.”
“Okay.” The only escape had become a dead end, but the headmaster felt lucky in a way. “Thankfully, you found me, or else I really wouldn’t know how to leave.”
“There’s no need for that.” Chen Ge led the old headmaster and retraced their steps. When they removed the wooden plank, there was a small accident. The blood sun that covered the school kept dropping, and it dispersed the blood fog around Chen Ge and almost discovered them. Returning safely to the school, Chen Ge took out the tools to pin the boards back up. That way, it would be hard to tell that someone had tampered with the school.
“Where should we go next? Are you trying to get the school’s approval?” The old headmaster took Yin Hong’s hand and followed behind Chen Ge. Yin Bai looked at the headmaster innocently, as if wondering what kind of mistake she had made.
“Other than myself, you also need to get the school’s approval.” Chen Ge’s reply stunned the old headmaster.
“Me? Why?”
“You are the key to everything,” Chen Ge said seriously. “Even though the school has consumed many souls, it was because it wished to provide a home for these despairing children. Currently, this home is very chaotic as it lacks a qualified manager.”
The headmaster nodded subconsciously. “Yes, the world behind a door that has lost control is very scary.”
Chen Ge did not pick up on what the headmaster said but continued on his own. “From how I see it, no one is more suitable to manage this school than you.”
“Me?” The old headmaster, who was lamenting the state of the school, was baffled, and he quickly shook his hands. “Stop kidding…”
“Don’t hurry to deny it. We can talk about this after gaining the school’s approval.” Chen Ge looked confident.
“Fine, what is your plan?” The old headmaster could only follow Chen Ge; he had no other choice.
“Simple, Yin Hong has lived here for so long, so she should know who people normally shy from. Later, we’ll bulldoze over all of them.” Chen Ge looked at the headmaster with a smile. “I will be the bad cop, and you’ll be the good cop. I’ll use force to correct force, and you only need to be yourself.”
