"Ah Yu, let's go to my house after school to watch a horror movie."
My classmate kept shaking my hand. He's the type who is both timid and loves to play, often collecting horror movies but not daring to watch them alone, always dragging me along.
"Xue Zhiqiang, you'll be scared to pee your pants later, and I won't care!" I responded loudly to his request. The two girls in front of us burst into giggles when they heard it.
Xue Zhiqiang lightly tapped me with his hand. I knew he had a secret crush on Li Siqin who sat in front of him, so he might be a little upset with me for telling his embarrassing stories in front of his goddess.
"Are you going?"
Xue Zhiqiang gently patted Li Siqin's shoulder and asked, "Are you not going?"
"I'm not going, I'm not going."
Li Siqin shook his head, unsure if he was afraid of ghosts or just didn't want to watch a movie with Xue Zhiqiang. Although Xue Zhiqiang was a bit cowardly, he had chosen a very terrifying movie. Some of the movies didn't even have a distribution company, making me seriously suspect that his dad had paid to have them made just to make him happy.
Arriving at his large villa, today he even sent the housekeeper aunt away to create an atmosphere.
"Ah Yu, let me tell you, I've been looking for this movie for a long time. I deliberately sent someone away, thinking that if Li Siqin came, I would kick you out. Unfortunately, I still have to watch it with you in the end."
He took me to his private theater in the basement of his house, turned on the projector, and sat down next to me.
At the beginning of the movie, the screen only shows three words: "People scare people."
Without any information about producers, directors, actors, etc., the movie begins with just these three words. Every time he shows this kind of movie, I have to pay close attention because everything in it is too real, nothing like acting at all.
The film tells the story of a girl who was bullied to death at school. Her vengeful spirit is sealed within the school, and one night, a few mischievous students accidentally summon her while playing a spiritual game in the classroom. She begins her revenge plan, and most of the bullies meet untimely deaths. As more and more deaths occur, the police officer Arong begins to investigate, and the school is forced to close the teaching building. As the investigation deepens, Arong encounters a series of supernatural events. However, as a seasoned detective, Arong is not deterred by these scares. Eventually, Arong catches the mastermind behind the incidents, who turns out to be the twin sister of the bullied girl. She intentionally created these seemingly supernatural events to avenge her sister.
In the end, the sister is arrested, but on the night she is taken into custody, the last bully hangs himself, and the location of his hanging is the same classroom where the spiritual game was played.
"Hey, let go."
I forcefully pushed away Xue Zhiqiang's obese body and shook my numb left hand.
"Ah Yu, how about this one today!"
At dinner, Xue Zhiqiang said excitedly.
I really can't understand why he is so scared when watching a movie, but after the movie ends, he acts like nothing happened.
After the college entrance examination, we also transitioned from the second year of high school to a pseudo third year, with reduced holidays and extended evening self-study sessions.
The pressure keeps coming, and we have started to look for ways to relax during breaks.
"Ah Yu, the seniors in grade three have left, let's go upstairs and shop on Taobao."
Xue Zhiqiang pulled me out the door. I couldn't understand how someone who had been fed and clothed since childhood would want to go scavenging for other people's unwanted things. But out of curiosity, I followed him upstairs. The atmosphere upstairs was completely different from the lively one downstairs. Despite it being summer, it was extremely cold upstairs, with the doors of each classroom either open or closed, and occasional gusts of cold wind.
"Should we leave?"
Looking at this gloomy scene, I also started to feel discouraged.
"What are you afraid of!"
Xue Zhiqiang turned and said, "I never thought someone who is so scared of watching movies like Xue Zhiqiang would have such great courage at this moment. I had no choice but to steel myself and enter each classroom to search. When I reached the middle of the hallway, I suddenly felt a tug.
"What are you doing? Don't scare me!"
"I shouted but didn't turn around. I thought it was Xue Zhiqiang playing a prank, after all, it was pitch black and I didn't know where he had run off to. 'I'm here, what did you say?'"
Xue Zhiqiang suddenly rushed out from the classroom in front of me, and I was startled. If he's in front of me, then who just pulled me?
Fear spread through my heart, and I couldn't help but remember what my grandfather used to say.
Schools are generally built on burial mounds to suppress the things below with the positive energy of the students.
At this thought, I turned and ran downstairs, with Xue Zhiqiang chasing after me and shouting. When I sat in the classroom chair panting, I saw Xue Zhiqiang walking in with a big smile.
"You're scared, aren't you?" Xue Zhiqiang said, looking at my pale face.
"Just now, it was Chen Mingxuan who pulled you."
His words left me a bit confused, but I instantly woke up and punched him.
Chen Mingxuan is the short one in our class. He's a good person, but he likes to tease people. It looks like the two of them are in cahoots.
"You almost scared me into a mental illness like this."
"I angrily said, 'Don't be in a hurry. This is just a test. I still need your help. Tomorrow, I'll lure Li Siqin and her friends up there, and you pretend to scare them. Then I'll take the opportunity to win her heart. How about that?'"
Upon hearing Xue Zhiqiang's words, I felt completely speechless. This kid, for the sake of picking up girls, actually made me sacrifice. Seeing my expression, he immediately said:
"I've already cleared the Switch in your shopping cart," he said.
It's good to have a wealthy friend; he's always so generous. I nodded in agreement.
The next day, during the break for evening self-study, I ran upstairs. Taking advantage of the daylight, I began searching for the classroom. In the spot where Chen Mingxuan had pulled me yesterday, I found some leftover candles and lighters from a graduation party.
So, a bold idea came to my mind. I first used the lighter to ignite some unused draft papers, turning them into ash and placing them at the door. Then I lit the candles, letting the wax drip and solidify on the desks. After that, I pushed the tables and chairs to the sides, leaving a space in the middle, where I drew a large hexagram with chalk.
After finishing the preparations, I went downstairs.
During the break, I was the first to leave and hide. Just as I ran out the door, I heard Li Siqin calling Chen Mingxuan's name, as if she had taken something important from her.
"This kid, still only knows such despicable means."
Just as I thought, Xue Zhiqiang let Chen Mingxuan steal Li Siqin's things and run upstairs, then pretended to be a good person and took Li Siqin to look for them, and finally scared himself.
Arriving at that classroom, it was extremely chilly at the moment. There was a strong smell of burnt shoes in the room, but I didn't mind. I just lit a candle and hid under the table.
After a while, I heard some commotion outside, but what surprised me was that Xue Zhiqiang this fool actually went to the wrong classroom next to mine.
Suddenly, the bell for class rang, and there was the sound of running from the adjacent classroom. I quickly got up to leave.
Just as I got up, all the candles on the table went out, and then the curtain by the window was blown open, and I saw a figure standing at the window.
"Ah!"
I let out a shout, a fear that originated from the depths of my soul, causing me to briefly lose consciousness.
When I returned to the classroom, I was completely disoriented and extremely frightened, so much so that I didn't speak for the entire night.
Xue Zhiqiang thought I had deceived him, so he didn't speak to me.
Until the next morning, I inexplicably developed a high fever, and for the following days, I continued to have a high fever. When I went to the hospital, the doctors couldn't find any reason. After hearing about my situation, my grandmother brought in a shaman from the countryside, who said that my soul was lost and needed to be retrieved. After a series of strange rituals, I finally returned to normal and went back to school.
When I returned to school, Xue Zhiqiang took the initiative to apologize to me, and I also told him about what had happened that day.
In the end, the two of us decided to find out the truth. When we finished evening self-study, we went to that place again, but everything had been taken away. Everything seemed normal, but as we were leaving the building, we saw a girl sitting in the middle of the hallway, holding a book. Just as we were about to approach her, she set the book down and gave us a strange, eerie smile.
What surprised me was that this girl had actually died in a car accident today.
