The Wolf Is Fierce and Cautious

Chapter 26 – Clue of the Curse in 'Haunted School Horror', is it man-made?

"The curse and this underground laboratory shouldn't have much of a direct connection."

Zhao Yi spoke with certainty.

After wandering around the cafeteria a couple of times, the two of them had become somewhat familiar to most of the monsters. Zhao Yi then led Yang Linlin out of there and back to the outside laboratory.

"How can you be so sure?"

Yang Linlin pursed her red lips tightly. Every time Zhao Yi spoke, it made her feel like a fool.

Even though they were always together and saw the same clues, she could never guess what was going on in Zhao Yi's mind.

"If this were the source of the curse, then why aren't the monsters here affected?"

"Compare it to everything in the teaching building. Don't you think this underground laboratory is too harmonious and normal?"

Yang Linlin's face was expressionless.

Damn it,

How is this laboratory harmonious and normal?

It's full of terrifying monsters!

Zhao Yi continued:

"Based on the current information, the black shadow outside is likely the ultimate creation of this experimental base, [X-2]. It can pass through walls, fly, and its state is quite unstable. I believe you noticed these traits when it was chasing Li Sheng earlier..."

Yang Linlin nodded.

But her mind was actually blank.

The abilities of the shadow...

She hadn't noticed at all!

It seemed like it could fly?

...Forget it!

If Zhao Yi says it has them, then it does!

After all, she's just a tag-along; following Zhao Yi is the right choice!

"It has such abilities, yet it stays by the entrance without wandering around. Don't you find that strange?"

Zhao Yi leaned against the door, fiddling with the human skin coat's siphon at the back, showing an innocent smile.

He looked just like... a pervert.

"Maybe it can't find anywhere to go, so it just lingers outside?"

Yang Linlin didn't bother to speculate on a specter's motives.

Zhao Yi shook his head:

"Rather than saying it can't find a place to go, it's more like... it's guarding the entrance."

"The monsters inside the base are so terrifying, with combat power comparable to a small army. Ordinary threats are nothing to them."

"The only thing that can threaten them is... the curse!"

Yang Linlin was shocked: "They're... afraid of the curse too?"

Zhao Yi:

"Remember what Li Sheng told us before?"

"On the seventh day of the curse, all the teachers and students at the school carried their own heads,

Zhao Yi mused to himself, stroking his chin.

Then he pushed the door open.

The scene inside made Yang Linlin and many viewers in the live streaming room shiver!
