"Isn't that Li Zhu?" someone in the crowd recognized Li Zhu and shouted.
"Brother, could you tell me which class this Li Zhu is in? I just want to go and offer him some comfort."
"Count me in."
"I am coming too."
……
Riku brazenly got into Hina-sensei's blue Porsche and headed to the home of the nobody.
"Hina-sensei's background is probably quite impressive, after all, not every family can afford to drive such a luxury car for commuting." Riku wasn't surprised, since this school is full of wealthy people.
Speechless all the way.
"We've arrived, let's get out of the car." Hina Arisu stopped in front of the little nobody's house and urged Riyu to get out of the car.
The first thing you see is a tall, silver-gray wall. Through the imposing gate, you can see a gleaming, luxurious mansion inside, with several burly security guards, each about 1.9 meters tall, standing guard at the entrance.
Even Li Zhu couldn't help but admire the mansion in front of her, thinking, "How magnificent! I want my mom to enjoy a mansion like this someday."
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" a security guard wearing sunglasses asked as he approached.
"I'm Sakurai Yuko's Chinese teacher. I've come to make a home visit today because Sakurai Yuko hasn't been to school for three days, so I'm a little worried." Hina Arisu tucked her hair behind her ear and deftly took out her Ouran High School teacher's certificate from her bag as proof.
"So you are the Second Miss's teacher. Please wait a moment, I will call and ask for instructions immediately."
"it is good."
Less than a minute later, the security guard jogged back and gestured for them to drive the car in. Under the guard's guidance, Hina and Arisu slowly drove the car into the backyard.
Because the car window was half open, Li Zhu's face was not obscured.
As Li Zhu passed by the right side of that mansion, she felt a chill run down her spine and goosebumps rose all over her body, as if she were being watched by something ominous.
Li Zhu hurriedly looked around and finally found a figure in white on the third floor by a window. The figure's face was not visible, his hair was disheveled, and his face was pale. He was just lying on the glass staring intently at Li Zhu.
What, what is this thing?! Li Zhu leaned back instinctively.
The figure seemed to notice that Li Zhu was also looking at her, and pressed her face against the glass, revealing a bright but sickly smile.
Is she smiling at me?
Holy crap, that's terrifying...
For a moment, Li Zhu felt her scalp tingle and a chill suddenly rose up her spine and climbed to the top of her head. Li Zhu had only ever seen such a bizarre scene in horror movies.
It's only been three minutes since I came in, and it's already like this. If I were to go into the home of some nobody later, they'd be devoured in no time...
"Teacher, look at that window on the third floor, what's that?" Li Zhu pointed to the window.
"There's nothing there. Is there anything in the third-floor window? What did you see?" Hina Arisu glanced at the six windows on the third floor, shook her head, and indicated that she hadn't found anything.
"Perhaps I'm seeing things," Li Zhu said, her face pale, trying to sound relaxed.
His right eyelid was twitching, and if it weren't for the faint white mark on the windowpane, he would have thought he had encountered a ghost.
A twitching left eye means good fortune, while a twitching right eye means bad luck.
Li Zhu used to only believe in science and didn't believe in the so-called ghosts and gods in the world, until he time-traveled and then believed in everything...
"Teacher, shall we go? It doesn't seem like today is a good day to visit Sakurai-kun. Let's come back another day." Riki was having second thoughts. She had left her pepper spray and helmet in the classroom, and she felt completely unsafe with her bare hands.
"Are you hiding something?" Hina Arisu parked the car steadily in the underground parking lot and suddenly turned to Riyuki and asked.
"Sister, don't mention the word 'ghost,' it's really unfriendly. That thing on the third floor just now looked exactly like a ghost, don't attract it."
"No, I just suddenly realized that I left a few things in the classroom and I was a little unsure of what to do."
What Li Zhu said was indeed the truth.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and go up. Don't take too long and come home too late. Your mother will worry."
"Don't worry, I've already told my mom about my affairs."
"What happens after this?" Hina Arisu looked at Riki with a strange expression.
"Oh, what I mean is, don't worry, I told my mom I'm going to visit a friend after school this afternoon, and if I don't come back, she doesn't need to save me any food."
"You're planning to spend the night at Sakurai's house?! Well, you still dare to say you haven't had a crush?!" Hina Arisu's eyes widened immediately, and she crossed her arms to question him.
"That's not what I meant. I didn't say I wanted to stay overnight. Please don't misunderstand me, teacher."
Li Zhu was shocked. She clearly said that she couldn't come back, meaning that something had happened and she couldn't go home. How could she have interpreted it as me wanting to spend the night at Sakurai's house?
It took Rina and Hina-sensei a long time to explain before they could barely dispel her "prejudice".
……
at this time.
In a room on the third floor.
A woman resembling Sadako from the TV series, with disheveled hair and an obscured face, was muttering a name repeatedly as if possessed.
"Li Zhu? Why did he come looking for me?"
If Li Zhu were here, she would immediately recognize that this was the terrifying figure who had been watching her from the third floor earlier.
"If you rejected me, why did you come looking for me in the first place?"
A gleaming wood-chopping knife reflected in pale red eyes, conveying a sense of morbid madness.
"I was already prepared to die together..."
"Does Li Zhu regret her decision and want to get back together with me?"
"How dare you! You came all the way to my house. I understand, I'll forgive you."
Yuko Sakurai's lips curled into a dangerous smile. Her usual quiet and reserved demeanor vanished, leaving only undisguised desire!
Thinking about meeting Li Zhu soon, a surge of intense emotions welled up within her, causing her to cover her face with her hands and writhe on the bed, like a poisonous flower that had been watered and was slowly blooming.
"Li Zhu...hehe, Li Zhu~"
……
The two arrived at Yuko Sakurai's large house, where a grim-faced head maid and two young maids led them up to the third floor, which was said to be where the Sakurai family met with friends in private.
"Second Miss, we've brought the person here, so we'll take our leave now. If you need anything, just let us know via pager, and we'll be waiting downstairs."
The maid bowed slightly and went downstairs. On the table in the living room were exquisite pastries and three cups of warm black tea.
Hina Arisu waited for a long time, but Sakurai Yuko's room door remained tightly closed, and there was no sound from inside.
"Sakurai-san, aren't you coming out yet? Teacher, Riyu and I have come to visit you."
"I understand, teacher. You can go back now. I have something to say to Li Zhu alone."
Through the heavy room door, Sakurai Yuko's voice sounded somewhat distorted and muffled, conveying a sense of oppression. Of course, this was only what Li Zhu thought, because he also sensed an impending doom in her voice.
Li Zhu recalled the night a few days ago. Because the plot arranged for his death to be imminent, he was terrified and couldn't sleep all night. That feeling of waiting to die was truly agonizing.
Hopefully, this is just his imagination; otherwise, what he was telling his mother on the phone really was his final arrangements.
Hina Arisu frowned. She had lost count of how many times she had frowned today. In short, things had turned out differently than she expected after meeting Riku. She looked back and forth between Riku and the closed door, reconsidering their relationship.
"Alright, then I'll head back now. You guys keep chatting. Remember to come to school early!"
In the end, Hina Arisu gave up thinking, turned around and patted Riki, who was standing there in a daze, and didn't forget to give her a warning.
"Don't you dare bully Yuko. If Yuko suffers any injustice, hmph, the way teachers punish bad students... do you hear me?"
I bullied her? She might have to kneel down and beg me not to die!
"Sakurai-san, can't you say what you want to say now? I'll just stand outside and listen." As Hina Arisu was about to leave, Riki panicked.
squeak-
The door opened a crack, and without a word, one could tell Sakurai Yuko's attitude.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go inside. The teacher has a lot of work to do, so I'll be leaving now." Hina Arisu nudged the pale-faced Riku, giving her a cryptic look before leaving.
The lights were off and the curtains were drawn. Li Zhu couldn't see the layout of the room clearly when he pushed the door open, and there was a faint fragrance wafting in. He cautiously took a few steps inside, when the door suddenly slammed shut, startling him so much that he stopped in his tracks.
The room was plunged into darkness again, and now even the only source of light was gone.
"Li Zhu~" A warm breath whispered in my ear, and a soft body pressed against me, while the exotic fragrance in my nose grew stronger.
The sudden movement in the darkness would startle anyone, and Li Zhu instinctively pushed her away.
Hehehe, the thing let out a silvery laugh after being pushed away.
As her eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, Li Zhu looked to the side and saw that it was the "white-clad ghost"—no, this wasn't a ghost at all; it was clearly Sakurai Yuko.
How did she become like this?!
"Sakurai-san, calm down, what happened to you?"
Sakurai Yuko walked towards Riki while laughing, and with each step she took, Riki took a step back.
"Sakurai-kun, let's talk this out, please don't resort to violence."
In just a few steps, they cornered him at the bedside.
"Stop! Stop! Sakurai-san, don't go any further! Sakurai, Sakurai Yuko, if you come any closer, I won't be so polite!"
Li Zhu grabbed a pillow from the bed and held it in front of her. At this moment, Sakurai Yuko was less than half a meter away from him. Despite Li Zhu's threatening words, she smiled foolishly, a smile that looked eerie in the darkness.
Suddenly, Li Zhu felt her body slowly becoming weak, her head was dizzy, and the pillow in her hand was just for show.
"What... happened to me...? What did you do to me...?"
Yuko Sakurai pressed herself against him again, gently stroking Riki's face. He was powerless to resist. A rich and familiar exotic fragrance wafted over him, along with his dormant desires that swallowed his consciousness.
Li Zhu didn't realize until a few seconds before she lost consciousness, after closing her eyes, that she had been drugged. "Oh no, I was drugged! I...I..."
"I'm sorry, I love you. I'm sorry, I love you. I'm sorry, I love you. I'm sorry, I love you. I'm sorry, I love you. I'm sorry, I love you. I'm sorry, I love you..."
……
Chapter Five: Taking a Different Path.
I woke up to find it was already morning.
"Hi~"
A faint, pleasant fragrance filled the room.
As soon as Li Zhu got up, she felt pain in her hands, legs, head, and back. Her body felt like it was falling apart, and she was in great discomfort. She couldn't care less about anything else for the moment, so she had to lie down again.
His first thought was, who hit me?
"Li Zhu, you're awake!"
Hearing the commotion, Yuko Sakurai, who was not far away, immediately ran over in surprise and tightly grasped Riyuki's hand.
When Li Zhu saw who it was, his eyes widened immediately. The person holding his hand was none other than Sakurai Yuko. His hand trembled instinctively, but he couldn't pull it back.
After all, he was still quite weak; otherwise, he could have performed a somersault in front of Yuko and then retreated to a corner in self-defense.
"What do you want to do?!" Riyu panicked when she saw Sakurai Yuko's smiling expression.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I know you must be very resistant to me right now, but I can apologize to you. I will never hurt you again, Li Zhu. I'm really sorry. Please believe me."
"..."
Yuko Sakurai lowered her head slightly, her words filled with sincerity. Her moist, almond-shaped eyes were captivating, and coupled with her innocent and regretful expression, even God would surely forgive such a beautiful girl.
Taking advantage of the moment when Riri lowered her guard slightly, Sakurai Yuko continued.
“Come on, let’s drink the medicine first. Some of the special sedative you inhaled earlier is still in your body, so you need to drink some medicine to remove the side effects.” Sakurai Yuko picked up a glass of grayish-brown liquid from the table next to her.
"who are you?"
"It's me, Yuko. Open your mouth. It might be a little bitter, but bear with it for now, ah~" Sakurai Yuko's tone was soft and sweet, as if she were coaxing a child. She even blew on the medicine, which wasn't very hot to begin with, and handed it to Riyu.
If you're Yuko, then who was it last night?
Li Zhu was a little doubtful whether this girl, radiating maternal love, was really Sakurai Yuko, but just thinking about what happened last night gave her a splitting headache, forcing her to stop recalling.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Only then did Li Zhu notice her surroundings. The pink-toned room was bright and clean, no longer as dark as before.
Before him stood Sakurai Yuko, dressed in a neat white and purple dress, looking beautiful and gentle with a dignified expression. Bright, soft light shone on her, making Yuko appear like a radiant and beautiful angel. As if possessed, Riki opened her mouth and took the medicine from the spoon.
"Am I dead? Is this heaven?" As the bitter medicine went down her throat, Li Zhu couldn't help but ask blankly.
