At first glance, it looks more like a dance studio.

The room is covered with wooden floors, the ballet barre is left empty against the wall, and a full-length mirror covers the entire left wall.

In the center of the room, several wooden benches were neatly arranged, and nearly 10 students sat stiffly with their backs straight, their eyes fixed on the full-length mirror. They were completely still, their hands placed rigidly on their knees, and they didn't even blink, as if their souls had been taken away.

The air was stuffy and stagnant; the wind tapped silently against the glass windows, making the whole room feel as if it had been locked into another space.

However, the sounds of lighthearted laughter, casual conversation, and sharing of daily life still echoed in the room:

"Hey, did you guys have a late-night snack before you came?"

"No, I'll just eat instant noodles when I get back to the dorm."

"But training usually lasts an hour, and by the time I get back to the dorm it's already 11 p.m."

"It's only 11 o'clock, my roommates are probably still hiding under the covers playing on their phones."

It was the tone of these students in front of me, their words flowing naturally, as if they were sitting around chatting.

However, the more ordinary the conversation became, the more creepy Chen Shi felt.

Because none of the nearly ten students in front of them were saying a word!

You can't expect to be able to ventriloquize to join a choir, can you?

Su Yining entered the room and couldn't help but gasp in surprise:

"How could this be... If they weren't talking, then where were these voices coming from?"

In the dance studio, all the students sat still, their brows and eyes stiff and their lips tightly closed, yet their usual laughter and conversation never stopped.

"Could it be mental intrusion? But we haven't even entered the spirit cage yet..."

Chen Shi remained calm and observed carefully:

“These students are all staring at the mirror, and the senior student said that a ghost appeared in the mirror when they were in the warehouse.”

He took out a rope and wrapped it around his wrist to prevent mental harassment.

Then, following the students' gaze, he turned his head and slowly looked at the full-length mirror...

In an instant, a chill ran straight up to my body!

In the full-length mirror, the students' lips moved in and out, the arc of their lips and teeth colliding perfectly matching the sounds of conversation in the room.

Ten figures, their eyebrows and eyes crinkling, their laughter and idle chatter all reflected in the mirror.

"The sound of conversation coming from the mirror?"

Chen Shi turned around and looked at the room again.

In reality, the students all sat stiffly on the benches, the scene silent and lifeless, as if their souls and words were locked inside the mirror.

The full-length mirror was veiled in a light mist, and the reflected gaze looked back faintly through the glass, precisely matching the blank stare in reality.

"Senior, can you see the difference in the mirror?" Chen Shi asked.

"A mirror? I can't see it."

Su Yining was puzzled. She glanced at the mirror a few times but couldn't see anything.

Sure enough, this evil spirit can also cause mental intrusion.

Chen Shi turned his gaze back to the mirror.

This sight made his heart skip a beat.

In the mirror, the students who were just chatting away in their seats had all stood up!

Not only that, but all the students surrounded him and Su Yining's reflections, encircling them completely. Ten pairs of stiff eyes stared straight at them, their lips curving into ambiguous smiles.

However, the students in reality remained completely unmoved.

What's going on? This evil spirit can control mirror images?

Without time to think, Chen Shi was struck by inspiration:

"Senior, step back."

The words had barely left her lips when Su Yining exclaimed in surprise:

"Chen Shi! In the classroom!"

Looking back, I saw that the students who had been sitting stiffly just moments before all turned their heads!

Without the slightest sound of movement or a word, ten necks twisted together in stiff, rigid arcs, the entire row of people turning their faces in unison, their empty, lifeless gazes turning towards us at the same time.

Everyone was deathly pale, their eyebrows and eyes expressionless, their lips pressed into stiff lines, all with blank faces and lifeless black pupils, like puppets that had lost their own will.

In the mirror, the students looked even closer!

Suddenly...

"Den-"

"And what is it?"

Before Chen Shi could resolve the situation, new commotion arose once again.

This ghost story is going on and on!

"Thump—!"

There was another sound, this time even more somber.

Chen Shi held his breath and looked in the direction of the sound. In the corner of the classroom, there was an old piano covered in thick dust.

The piano lid slowly opened on its own, the wooden lid creaking against the cabinet, the sound dry and hoarse, like a knife rubbing against the heart.

"Thump—!!"

The black and white piano keys, untouched, rose and fell in succession, slowly playing a dance tune.

"Hmm..." Su Yining's legs trembled, and she suddenly hugged her head and slumped against the wall.

"Senior!?"

Another instance of psychological harassment?

Just as Su Yining thought this was the case, she said:

"That voice... I think I've heard it before..."

Her eyebrows were furrowed, and even her voice trembled.

"Have you heard of this before?"

Chen Shi was startled, and in his daze, the figure in the mirror was getting closer and closer.

Although it's unknown what will happen if the reflection is touched, it's definitely not a good thing.

At the same time, the piano music began to play out of thin air, its rhythm steady yet devoid of any human emotion. Dust accumulated between the keys was stirred up by the vibrations of the keys, and the hollow echoes swirled around the full-length mirror.

It's as if there's someone you can't see sitting in a chair playing music.

What should we do? We can't find the evil spirit at all...

While pondering, Chen Shi suddenly remembered what Su Yining had said.

A malevolent spirit appeared in a mirror in the warehouse. After another ferryman broke the mirror, the spirit escaped.

"We have no choice but to give it a try."

Chen Shi, with a do-or-die attitude, clenched his right fist and quickly wrapped the rope around his hand, pulling it tight.

Immediately afterwards, he lowered his center of gravity and raised his elbows, just like when Jiang Liu trained him, and quickly threw a punch in front of the mirror!

Instantly, the sling and the bandages on the forearm both emitted bursts of light, and with the enhancement of the two magical artifacts, a wave of energy was instantly unleashed:

"Bang—!"

Spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread across the mirror, shattering the entire mirror and scattering the shards of glass all over the floor like a miniature rain of silver.

at the same time……

"Eee!"

A sharp wail rang out from the mirror. Chen Shi's inspiration was fully awakened, and he clearly saw a blurry shadow flash by in the mirror.

The black piano keys in the corner fell heavily, producing another accented note:

"Thump!!"

The sound was like a heavy hammer striking Su Yining's heart, causing her to grit her teeth and bend over.

"Uh-huh..."

Seeing this, Chen Shi punched the mirror again!

In an instant, the cracks on the mirror spread infinitely, shards of glass fell to the ground, and the entire mirror shattered completely, turning the floor-to-ceiling mirror that covered an entire wall into fragments scattered all over the floor.

As the floor-length mirror shattered completely, the music also disappeared.

"They must have run away, right?"

Chen Shi looked back and saw that the students were also like puppets without strings, with their heads hanging down and their eyes empty.

"Senior, are you alright?" He stepped forward and helped Su Yining up.

"It's alright... but I'm absolutely certain I've heard that piano music before, it's exactly the same!"

Su Yining was panting heavily, her voice still trembling, her crimson eyes quivering as if she had witnessed something extremely terrifying.

"This evil spirit is indeed more dangerous than the previous ones."

Chen Shi stared at the shards scattered on the ground, completely unaware that behind him, the girl with pigtails stood up with her head down...

Chapter 61 Reunion?

Inside the classroom, glass was shattered all over the floor, and Chen Shi quickly helped Su Yining up.

"The piano sound is exactly the same?"

"There's no mistake, I've definitely heard this piano before, the timbre and melody are exactly the same!"

Su Yining's chest heaved violently, and she felt a sharp pain in her head. Her delicate features twitched slightly.

"Is it the same as when I saw the tattoo?"

Chen Shi recalled the situation at the time... After killing Wu Hui and revealing the tattoo, Su Yining recalled related memories the moment she saw the tattoo, although they were very vague...

The current effect should be the same as before.

Therefore, there seem to be two ways to help Su Yining regain her memories:

First, recall memories through fragments of the body.

Second, stimulate memory by reviewing key information points.

This also indicates that the evil spirit has been there for two years.

I just overheard the students' conversation, and they mentioned that the teacher in charge of the choir is named Hu Lizhang.

This teacher is definitely suspicious; he's most likely a member of the Prosperous Flower Society.

Chen Shi immediately locked onto the target.

In a moment of distraction, he caught a glimpse of a shadow on the floor and was shocked to see that a shadow had appeared out of nowhere!

"!"

He turned around abruptly, only to see that the girl with pigtails had silently appeared behind him!

"What? Not a single footstep?"

Is walking silently now a popular trend?

The girl with pigtails had lifeless eyes, bloodshot pupils, and her body looked as if all her muscles and bones had been removed, with her hands raised straight up.

And on all ten of her fingers, her nails had turned into sharp shards of glass!

"what's the situation?"
