Derry Town was rather backward.
The school was located in the center of Derry Town, right next to the amusement park that Billy had mentioned.
After obtaining the special permit from the police station, Du Wei had rushed straight to the entrance of the school.
At that moment, the school gates were tightly shut. Through the bars, one could see the quiet scene inside, with only the occasional teacher passing by.
The students were still in class.
The reason Du Wei was reluctant to let Gena, a local, follow him was that he did not want to further complicate matters.
Moreover, his Evil Spirit Transformation was much more advanced than before.
Normally, it wasn’t obvious; he didn’t look any different from a regular person, maybe just a little colder.
But once he entered Evil Spirit Transformation, all emotions ceased to exist.
In other words,Du Wei was in a state of absolute composure and rationality, which was unnatural, and having Gena, an acquaintance, follow him could lead to some problematic situations.
Instead of letting him provide some insignificant help, it was faster to do it himself.
In the rain,
Du Wei, holding an umbrella, walked up to the security booth at the school entrance and tapped the glass window gently.
Whoosh…
The glass window slid open, revealing a standard Caucasian face, bleary with sleep and with sparse stubble.
The Caucasian security guard glanced at the man holding a black umbrella outside the window and said impatiently, “I’ve told you how many times, the school is off-limits. If you’re here to pick up a child, please come after school.”
But the next second,
A police-issued special permit appeared before the eyes of the Caucasian security guard.
Du Wei tilted the black umbrella slightly back and held the paper permit stamped and sealed with his left hand, glancing at the Caucasian security guard, “Please open the gate. I won’t cause any trouble…”
The latter, grazed by that icy gaze, instinctively felt a chill and spoke with extreme reluctance, “Okay… okay, I’ll open the gate.”
He then pressed the button to open the gate electronically.
Click…
The side door of the security booth opened in response.
Du Wei stepped inside.
After he had left, the Caucasian security guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
The moment he was under Du Wei’s gaze, he felt ill at ease, instinctively filled with a sense of fear.
…
Inside the school,
Du Wei walked straight towards Billy’s classroom, umbrella in hand.
The rain was falling heavier now, creating large puddles on the ground.
The large raindrops hit the umbrella noisily.
The Black Umbrella served as protection against Evil Spirits; it was also a very precious antique in its own right.
If the church people saw Du Wei using the Black Umbrella as a rain umbrella, they would probably be furious.
Because that was excessively luxurious.
Cherishing one’s own items for exorcising Evil Spirits is one of the Exorcist’s principles.
But at this time, the Black Umbrella not only served as Du Wei’s rain umbrella but also acted to contain the black mist underneath it.
No one else could see that under the Black Umbrella, a swirl of fog was constantly struggling, twisting into strange shapes, always contained within the area of the umbrella.
It wanted to leave but couldn’t, so it was forcibly carried by Du Wei.
At this moment,
The Black Umbrella was a tool for collecting the black mist, a puzzle piece.
…
A few minutes later,
Du Wei arrived at the entrance of a classroom.
The door was tightly shut, and from inside came the sounds of a math class in progress.
Under the state of Spirit Vision,
Du Wei could clearly see the entire classroom exuding an unusual aura.
It was as if a filter had been placed over it, turning everything a bit yellowish.
Knock knock knock…
Du Wei knocked on the door.
The teaching inside the classroom came to an abrupt halt, followed by a burst of footsteps.
Whoosh…
The door was abruptly pulled open.
A white teacher around 40 years old, dressed in a suit, stood at the door and said displeasedly, “Sir, we are in the middle of a class, could you please not disturb us?”
As he spoke, the white teacher eyed Du Wei up and down, “I don’t think I’ve seen you before? Are you a new teacher or someone unrelated?”
"I’m here to investigate a case.”
Du Wei took out a special permission document and handed it over, while his face remained expressionless as he gazed at the three children inside the classroom.
One girl and two boys, all around fifteen or sixteen years old, their clothes carrying the rebellious vibe characteristic of adolescence, but at that moment, all three of them looked haggard and had a vacant look in their eyes, clearly indicating something was off.
Around each of them, clung a swirling mass of black mist, especially dense around the girl, within which one could faintly make out the face of a clown, its contours fierce and horrifying.
Without needing to analyze, Du Wei knew they were Ena, Ferran, and Paul.
The teacher checked the special permission document and asked with confusion, “A case? There haven’t been any incidents in our school.”
Du Wei calmly replied, “That’s why I’m just here to investigate.”
"Alright, but I hope you won’t take too long. As you know, the children are currently focused on preparing for their midterms.”
Du Wei nodded and walked into the classroom, holding the Black Umbrella.
Beneath the umbrella, the mist snatched from Billy was shaking violently, as if sensing something.
The black mist around those three children underwent a bizarre transformation.
It was becoming denser and denser, as if it was about to boil over.
Du Wei, however, acted as if he heard nothing and kept walking.
With each of his steps,
The raindrops falling from the umbrella turned crimson, like blood, tapping rhythmically on the ground as they fell.
The atmosphere and the scene reached the peak of eeriness.
The three children seemed to have witnessed this sight, their pale faces and wide eyes filled with terror as they screamed.
The mist boiled over completely.
However, the others couldn’t see the abnormalities and thought it strange that Ena and the others would suddenly scream in unison, as if witnessing something terrifying.
The white teacher noticed this scene and his face turned extremely ugly, “Hey sir, I think you should leave; you’ve frightened my students.”
No response.
Du Wei had already approached the first terror-stricken, screaming child; the Black Umbrella glided past him, and with his Right Hand, Du Wei forcibly pulled a mass of mist into the umbrella.
This child’s eyes rolled back and he fainted on the spot.
Then came the second.
Upon seeing this, the white teacher, though unaware of what was occurring, felt compelled by his professional responsibility not to ignore it.
"Sir, please stop!”
But Du Wei had already reached the second child; amidst the screams, he grabbed the black mist and shoved it into the umbrella.
Next was the third, the last girl.
By then, the girl had stopped screaming and started to laugh maliciously, a grin on her face that was hair-raising and tremble-inducing only by looking at it. Stay connected through Novgo
But Du Wei blocked everyone’s line of sight and looked down coldly at her, or more accurately at the black mist entwined around her.
The mist had formed the contour of a Clown, its entire face solidified to an extreme, the grin horrifying beyond belief.
"Heh… heh…”
