137: Episode 137: The Train That Never Stops (Part 6)

Qian Ye was pulled by him into the darkness, avoiding those eerie students.

"You..."

"H-hello, I, I am also a student here."

"Th-they turn like this whenever night falls, and they will attack anyone indiscriminately."

"Y-you, how did you appear here?"

"At night, no students are allowed to be on campus."

"Oh~"

"Then you..."

"Th-that, I am not a student."

This answer truly surprised Qian Ye.

No matter how one looked at him, he had the appearance of a young boy.

The boy seemed to sense her confusion, scratched his head, and said, "I, I am not a teacher either."

In the darkness, the corners of Qian Ye's mouth twitched slightly.

Then who are you? Just say it.

However, Qian Ye did not continue this topic.

She curled her lips slightly and asked, "Then, what should we do next?"

Qian Ye put on the appearance of a young girl, her tone laced with fear.

"I, I don't even know what happened? I, I don't have any memory."

"I... how did I get here?"

The boy gently hugged her for a moment. "Don't worry, they will leave in ten minutes."

The two of them hid in the dark corner like this, waiting for time to slowly pass.

Qian Ye was almost falling asleep from waiting when the person beside her suddenly said, "Let's go."

Qian Ye let the person in front lead her, her gaze burning as she stared at his back.

"Then... where are we going next?"

The boy let go of her and looked down at his toes. "Actually, actually I don't know how I appeared here either."

"I have been here for a long time."

"You, you are the first person to see me."

This sentence made Qian Ye think of the pair of eyes she had seen in the darkness earlier.

Looking at the boy in front of her again, his whole body exuded a clear aura. Thinking back to those eyes she had seen, Qian Ye raised an eyebrow slightly.

Interesting.

"My name is Cang Bei. You, you..."

"My name is Su Ye."

Qian Ye followed him through winding paths, finally arriving at the back of the school.

Looking at the cave in front of her, she said, "You..."

Thinking about what he had said, she didn't ask any further.

"Su, Su Ye, can you, can you stay and keep me company?"

"I am all alone, it's so boring..."

"I, I really want someone to be with me and talk."

Qian Ye listened to him quietly, stood up, looked at the sky outside, and muttered to herself, "Time is almost up."

"What?"

"Nothing, I should go."

After finishing this sentence, Qian Ye slowly disappeared in front of Cang Bei.

Cang Bei stared blankly at the person who was gradually disappearing, reached out, and grabbed at nothing.

Inside the carriage, Qian Ye opened her eyes and looked to the side, seeing An Ke being pinned to the ground.

Several Vicious Ghosts were lying on her body, biting her. She unleashed the red singer in her hand, attacking rapidly, and one by one, they were struck and dissipated immediately.

"Cough, cough... cough, cough..."

"Thank you..."

An Ke struggled to sit up and looked at the wounds on her body with a bitter smile.

Qian Ye pursed her lips tightly. On her body, a glowing red light was still radiating.

She patted the flower pot in her hand, and the red light gradually dissipated.

Out of the corner of her eye, Qian Ye saw three withered tree men lying in a pool of blood, and she raised an eyebrow.

An Ke watched her movements, her head lowered, and she opened her mouth: "Not long after, they suddenly started attacking u... us..."

"The red light on your... body..." made it impossible for them to get close, and in the end, all their firepower was concentrated on her...

"Why?"

"Why..."

"Study..."

"If you don't study, you'll die~"

The entire carriage was once again filled with a group of elementary school students wearing school uniforms. Qian Ye was all too familiar with the uniforms those students were wearing.

It was just that this group of Vicious Ghosts appeared younger.

That group of students moved closer and closer to Qian Ye and the others, expressionless, with dead-fish-like eyes staring fixedly at them.

Their mouths kept moving, continuing, "If you don't study, you will die."

"Die."

"Die."

Baring fangs and brandishing claws, Qian Ye jumped behind them and realized that these Vicious Ghosts were all like pieces of paper.

On their backs, it was filled with test questions.

Qian Ye easily dodged them, only to see those students heading towards An Ke.

An Ke, who was already exhausted, hadn't even had time to fight back when she was entangled by those Vicious Ghosts.

"Mmph... mph mph..."

An Ke struggled, wanting to break free, but the entanglement only got tighter.

"Save, save..."

Qian Ye grabbed the red singer and slashed directly at them.

With this action of hers, the ones opposite immediately focused their gaze on her.

"I want to study..."

"I want to study..."

"Study..."

As they spoke, the bodies that had been slashed open returned to normal, and in the next second, they lunged towards Qian Ye.

Their bodies rapidly grew larger and longer, like an enlarged test paper, wanting to completely wrap Qian Ye inside.

"Hehehe, study, study..."

"Die, die~"

Sounds kept coming from all directions. Qian Ye pressed her temples, "It's really annoying and gives one a headache."

The hong ling umbrella radiated an eerie red light, shooting straight towards them. The red singer shuttled back and forth inside, breaking them into fragments, but in the end, they pieced themselves back together little by little before their eyes.

"Study~"

"Why don't you study..."

"Die... die..."

There was no emotion, only continuous attacks, a state of refusing to give up until the goal was achieved.

Qian Ye's eyes narrowed slightly. They kept chanting study, study in their mouths...

Recalling the questions on their backs, Qian Ye went behind them and looked closely; the questions on the back of each one were different.

Could it be solving the questions?

They kept moving around, and there was simply no way to get close to their backs. As soon as Qian Ye got close, it was as if they had eyes on their backs; they quickly adjusted their positions, and attacks came flying.

"Respected passengers, Youxueling Station is about to arrive. Please be prepared, passengers."

The loudspeaker sound rang out, and Qian Ye suddenly realized.

A moment later,

An Ke followed Qian Ye, looking at the questions beneath them with a bewildered expression.

To be precise, it was those Vicious Ghosts, currently pinned to the ground by Qian Ye, and they were sitting on top of them, staring at the questions on them.

Their mouths kept chanting: Screw studying.

Screw studying, I want to play!

An Ke didn't understand why, but whatever Qian Ye said, she followed along and said.

While saying it, she still had a look of confusion and helplessness. It was hard to imagine an elegant-looking young girl spitting out dirty words.

An Ke stared at the paper figures on the ground with a dazed look. Good heavens, was she bullying children now?

She didn't know how many times she had chanted along, but she felt the suffocating feeling wrapped around her body slowly disappearing.

Looking down again, she saw a small book lying on the ground.

She knew this; it was the prologue, which was the so-called ticket for this train.

Those paper figures had disappeared, and she didn't know when Qian Ye had vanished; she was the only one in the entire carriage.

An Ke had no choice but to put the ticket away first and quietly wait for the ticket inspection time.

——

The Qian Ye who had disappeared from An Ke's eyes was, at this moment, dragging a paper figure that wanted to run away.

"You, why are you running~"

"I just want to chat with you. In life, it's not just about studying~"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't move around..."

Qian Ye grabbed a corner of it, not letting it break free, but it insisted on rushing forward. And so, Qian Ye was dragged by it to an empty carriage.

Qian Ye looked up, relaxed her hand, and the Vicious Ghost vanished without a trace.

She stared curiously at the empty carriage in front of her.
