This experience at Gaicai Middle School was full of ups and downs for Zhuo Bufan.
The boy with his grandma's gray hair stood under the street lamp, his shadow stretched out by the street lamp.
He put one hand in his pocket. Chewing gum in mouth. Hold your phone between your shoulder and cheek.
At this moment, he was talking vaguely.
"Oh, sister, after all we share the same sorrow, let's meet. I can't explain it on my own. I have to have you as a witness for me, otherwise who will believe it?"
It was Mu Ruijin on the other end of the phone.
I don’t know what she said, but the boy’s raised eyebrows drooped like a pitiful puppy.
"You really don't want to meet me, sister? Can't you ask someone to look at your injury?"
"You want me to find Li Fei? I have, but he alone is not enough? You are not as convincing as you."
Zhuo Bufan was on the phone. Spending time with Mu Ruijin.
A completely black car drove over from a distance and stopped not far in front of Zhuo Bufan.
"Didi——" Along with the sound of the horn, the high beam on the front of the car swung twice, signaling to Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan raised his hand and gestured in the direction of the car.
The car became quiet and waited where it was.
"...I also said that I would like to treat you to a meal, sister, to show you face. Even if you don't want to meet people from the organization, it's okay for us to be friends."
"Oh, okay. If you don't want to, forget it."
"However, you have to keep this number. It is my personal mobile phone number and has nothing to do with the organization. You must not block me."
After arguing with Mu Ruijin for a few more words, Zhuo Bufan hung up the phone.
Putting the phone back in his pocket, he walked towards the car.
He skillfully opened the trunk door.
There was already a person sitting in the back seat of the car.
She is a middle-aged woman about 40 years old, with fair skin and some inconspicuous fine lines at the corners of her eyes. Wearing a sapphire blue trench coat, with short hair reaching her ears, she showed the capable temperament of a mature woman.
Zhuo Bufan raised his eyebrows in surprise.
With a tilt of his body, he squeezed in and sat down next to the woman.
Zhuo Bufan turned his head slightly and looked at the woman.
But the woman didn't even raise her eyes and didn't look at him.
He seemed not to care about Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan slowly stopped chewing gum.
He took a piece of paper from the car, spit out the gum in his mouth, and wrapped it up.
Then he spoke with some hesitation and called out: "Mom."
"Yeah." The woman then raised her eyes and looked at him.
Zhuo Bufan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why are you here?"
The woman said: "Team Leader Zhao asked me to pick you up."
Zhuo Bufan tightened his lips, and his brows were filled with disappointment and displeasure.
His lips moved, but he didn't say anything. He just turned his head and looked quietly out the window, waiting for the car to speed all the way to the institute.
The car drove to the institute.
Zhuo Bufan got out of the car.
He stood by the car, holding the car door with one hand but not closing it.
The woman was still sitting in the car and didn't move.
When Zhuo Bufan saw this, his tone couldn't help but become a bit harsh: "Your mission is completed, should you go back?"
After saying that, regardless of the woman's reaction, she waved her hand vigorously and closed the car door.
Zhuo Bufan walked towards the research institute.
Team leader Zhao saw Zhuo Bufan arriving and took him into the reception room.
"What happened to Xiaozhuo this time, and he was so anxious to report it?"
When Team Leader Zhao faced the young Zhuo Bufan, he did not appear to be indifferent and asked kindly with a smile.
Zhuo Bufan glanced at the reception room and found that he and Team Leader Zhao were not the only ones.
It's so late, but there's actually an older man and woman here.
Team leader Zhao noticed Zhuo Bufan's expression and introduced with a smile: "These two are professors in the institute, responsible for researching projects related to ghost stories...Professor Luo and Professor Fu."
As for why the two professors were here late at night, Team Leader Zhao did not tell Zhuo Bufan.
This is not something Zhuo Bufan should know.
Zhuo Bufan didn't think much about it.
He said hello to the two professors, expressed his goodwill and sat down on the chair in the reception room.
"Team Leader Zhao," Zhuo Bufan considered his words and spoke slowly, "This time I encountered a particularly terrifying weird thing in the strange stories at Gaicai Middle School..."
Team leader Zhao was stunned.
Zhuo Bufan said: "I don't know how to describe him specifically, but he seems to have broken through the restrictions of the rules, and his actions are not restricted by school rules."
"And His appearance... doesn't seem like he was originally born in the Kaidan Middle School. It seems like he came from outside the school."
Team Leader Zhao couldn't help but change his expression when he heard this.
Complex emotions flashed through his eyes, and he subconsciously looked at Luo Wenbo and Fu Yishu, who were sitting beside them.
The three men looked at each other.
After all, only a few of them had discussed it before - what if the ghost story was a complete world?
This can be completely explained. There is a connection between various ghost stories, and the weirdness of different ghost stories can even cross paths with each other.
Zhuo Bufan was still immersed in his own thoughts and did not notice the change in the atmosphere.
He continued: "More importantly, His appearance has caused tremendous changes in Gaicai Middle School."
"Team Leader Zhao, you know that the toilet in the teacher's office building of Gaicai Middle School is a well-known taboo. Even the boss Yue Hengwu can't solve it."
"This time we entered the strange story. Due to an accident, another investigator and I were forced to enter this toilet. However, in the end we came out unscathed."
"It's as if something that once occupied this toilet has been completely cleaned away."
"And before we went in, that powerful weird one also went in..."
Team Leader Zhao listened quietly to Zhuo Bufan's narration, the expression on his face became more and more complex.
If everything is really as Zhuo Bufan said, then...that weirdness should be so powerful.
Zhuo Bufan suddenly thought of something and suddenly raised his head to look at Team Leader Zhao.
"By the way, Team Leader Zhao." Zhuo Bufan recalled, "I heard other weird people in Guacai Middle School call him...Ms. Wang."
Record everything reported by Zhuo Bufan.
The sky outside the window has turned fish belly white.
In the faint morning light, Team Leader Zhao sent Zhuo Bufan into the lounge and handed him a blanket.
"Thank you for your hard work. You should take a good rest first. When you wake up, the organization will send appropriate people to do a psychological evaluation for you."
After settling Zhuo Bufan, Team Leader Zhao closed the door and returned to the reception room.
Luo Wenbo and Fu Yishu stayed up all night. Their eyes were now black and blue, but they were in high spirits.
Seeing Team Leader Zhao coming in, the two of them looked at him with a bit of expectation in their eyes.
Team leader Zhao smiled bitterly.
But they didn't disappoint.
"It is indeed as the two of you guessed...if there is something weird that transcends the rules, then it is the so-called third level, the resurrection level."
Team leader Zhao changed the topic.
"However, a single resurrection-level weirdness is nothing. So far, I haven't encountered it a few times... They are not enough to raise the entire weird story to the resurrection-level level."
