Chapitre 20

“Professor, these things didn’t happen because of you. You don’t need to blame yourself,” Li Ke advised.

"You don't understand, every twenty years, some strange things happen at the school—either people die or they disappear. ...

There was only one case last year, but two died this year, and right under my nose! I could have reported it to the school and stopped...

I was in class, but I believed in my abilities, so... that's why something like someone dying happened in the end! It's all my fault.

"Wrong!" he confessed with self-reproach.

Wu Xi retorted softly, "Please, Professor, so what if you suggested the school suspend classes? Just because you made the suggestion doesn't mean the school has to..."

Will you agree?

Zhang Xiaodi wrinkled his nose, "That's right! Professor, the school doesn't care whether students live or die! It's not like he's the one who's going to die."

Guys! It's a good thing you didn't apply, otherwise I'm sure the school would have thought you were crazy and kicked you out. That way, there wouldn't be...

We met today.

Everyone nodded in agreement and then gave Professor Chen a reassuring smile.

Professor Chen looked at the child in front of him and smiled with satisfaction.

Xu Xian, who had been deep in thought, muttered to himself, "It happens every twenty years..."

"Xu Xian, what are you babbling about?" Li Ke looked at him suspiciously.

Xu Xian composed himself, then looked at everyone, finally settling his gaze on Professor Chen.

“Professor, there’s something you haven’t told us. Something must have happened in 1962.” He said firmly.

He said.

Professor Chen was slightly startled. "1962?"

"Yes, if I remember correctly, you just said that strange things happen at the school every twenty years, and..."

The data you provided only includes 1942 and 1982. Including this year, you haven't mentioned 1962. That would make it complete.

"It happens every twenty years!" Xu Xian asked curiously.

"1962?" Fear appeared on the professor's face, his breathing became rapid, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Xu Xian looked at him with concern, then walked up to him and smiled reassuringly.

“Professor!” he called softly.

The professor shuddered.

"professor?"

Professor Chen looked at him.

"Yes, just like that, look into my eyes," Xu Xian guided.

Professor Chen calmed down in no time, though his eyes were a little vacant as he sat quietly in his chair.

Li Ke and the other three looked at Xu Xian suspiciously. Xu Xian could only smile blankly, then scratch the back of his head and make a silly sound.

The answer is: "Hypnosis."

Everyone was stunned. Xu Xian was truly terrifying. How could there be any secrets with someone like him?

Reply [26]: "Xu Xian, where did your mind-reading ability go? Why don't you just use that? It would be faster. Why do you need to use it?"

"Do we still have to ask questions one by one like this?" Li Ke suggested.

Xu Xian stretched out his index finger and waved it from side to side. "I have another plan. You'll understand in a moment."

After saying that, he began to give Professor Chen hints.

"What is your name?" Xu Xian asked.

-- "Chen Dexun"

"age?"

--"Sixty-two"

"Profession?"

--"University professor."

"Okay, Professor Chen, do you remember what happened in 1962?"

Although under hypnosis, Professor Chen still acted somewhat lewdly, and Xu Xian frowned as well. It seemed that something truly terrible had really happened that year.

He deepened the hypnotic suggestion about the things he feared.

Tell me about the thing that happened that year that scared you.

Professor Chen spoke in a trembling voice, those images flashing through everyone's minds...

"Xiao Xiao and I were high school classmates, and then we both got into XX University (Xu Xian's current school). We fell in love."

We loved each other so deeply. We climbed Fragrant Hills together, waited for the sunrise at the beach together, and traveled to every corner of our country together.

They studied together and even decided to study abroad together. They even ended up living together. At that point, society simply wouldn't accept them.

Cohabitation between unmarried men and women is a common thing, but she followed me without hesitation. In our sophomore year of college, we rented a small room...

Fearing she wouldn't be able to handle the gossip, I chose Sunday to go back to school to pack my things. That day, most of the students had gone home.

Many of the remaining students had gone on outings to the countryside, so there weren't many people on campus. I accompanied her to her dormitory building; at that time...

It's probably a leak in the underground pipes; the stairwell is flooded. It wasn't very deep, but none of us had considered that possibility that day.

Why is there so much water in the hallway? Why isn't the water level dropping? Her dorm is on the fifth floor; the water had already receded by the time we reached the fourth floor.

The sweat had spread to her calves. Xiaoxiao needed to go back to her dorm to get her things, but she's a clean freak. So I was carrying her on my back the whole time.

She wasn't light, but I felt so happy carrying her. To this day, that's still my most cherished memory.
