The City of Terror Chapter 88

Chapter 88 - Verification

Chapter 88 – Verification

When he despised Wei Xiao Bei for showing his brute strength, he had forgotten that he, himself, also loved to show off in the same way.

From this, it can be seen that a man’s thoughts and words did not depend on their brain but on where their butts were sitting.

When the two people finally arrived at the cafeteria, Wei Xiao Bei finally came back to his sense, “Aiya, little senior apprentice sister, these are the things that master wanted me to give you.”

Cheng Si Si also returned to her senses. She extended her hand and took the bag while complaining, “My junior apprentice brother’s head is getting dumber. Carrying such a big bag here in vain.”

“Why don’t we eat breakfast first and then let your junior apprentice brother send you back?”

Wei Xiao Bei was careful with his words. He knew that his little senior apprentice sister’s temper was about to erupt in any moment, even though she had just swatted away a disgusting house fly.

“Okay, then let’s go into this store.”

Cheng Si Si carried the bag and hurriedly walked in.

They both sat down and ordered a lot of food, but the air between them remained dull.

After the waiter delivered two bowls of soy milk to their table, Cheng Si Si finally sobered up from the atmosphere. She fiercely stared at Wei Xiao Bei, “Xiao Bei! You absolutely cannot tell the dojo about the matter before! Everything was fake, do you understand?”

By the end of her sentence, Cheng Si Si’s voice had softened a bit.

No matter what was said, Wei Xiao Bei was older than Cheng Si Si by a few years. He was able to understand Cheng Si Si’s thoughts just by looking at her and made a bitter smile, “Little senior apprentice sister, even if you didn’t ask me, I would not dare.”

“Then all is good. Eat.”

At the exact same time, two bowls of soup dumplings were delivered to their tables, and Cheng Si Si picked one up to eat. Her table manners were seemed to be at least three times more fierce than Wei Xiao Bei’s.

Wei Xiao Bei naturally knew that her little senior apprentice sister was still a virgin. When she had done those things to get rid of the green haired fly, she did not think much about it at that time. However, once the matter passed and she remembered them, she would naturally become embarrassed, and as a result, become a little more restless.

Another thing was that Wei Xiao Bei did not have any intentions towards her. After all, the master had treated him very well. If he had any ideas about her, then that would be quite a wild ambition.

Although this wild ambition may not necessarily be a bad thing, Wei Xiao Bei’s energy was currently divided into two, training and The Dust World. He did not have the energy to do anything apart from this, let alone having a love affair.

After they ate for a while, Wei Xiao Bei suddenly thought of something and pretended to accidentally find a subject to talk about.

Cheng Si Si was not the sort of a bashful maiden. Once matters passed, she wouldn’t think about them anymore.

After talking a bit, Wei Xiao Bei slowly moved the subject to matters about Cui Hu University.

What made him gratified was that his hard work was not wasted. Cheng Si Si immediately entered into a talking mood. She jabbered on and described the ten great mysteries of Cui Hu University.

Naturally, the so-called ten great mysteries were about some female students committing suicide in some places and then becoming ghosts, then at 10 o’clock night time, if you go to those places, you would see a bloodied female student, and so on.

These supernatural rumours had probably been circulating there for more than ten years already, so Wei Xiao Bei did not care much about it.

“Right, I also heard that during military training period, a few new students had disappeared. They had mysteriously vanished from their rooms. The strangest thing was that their rooms were locked. Their roommates had verified that before they had turned the lights off for the night, everyone was in the room. However, the morning of the next day, they discovered that their roommate had disappeared. Their beds still had traces that they had been slept in, but no one had found them until now. Thinking about it is kinda scary,” saying this, Cheng Si Si’s face let out a small trace of fear.

Although Cheng Si Si had trained since young, she was still a girl. If it were things like bugs and snakes, she was not scared of them. However, this kind of supernatural thing slightly shook her.

This was a human’s innate nature. They were afraid of things that they could not understand.

“Oh?”

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help frown as he made in inference. After asking a few more question, he had a rough understanding of the situation.

According to the time of events, the disappearance of the girls and Wei Xiao Bei’s adventure to the Dust World the night before were not consistent. However, this was normal since people who had just disappeared would not have spread as much.

After eating breakfast, Cheng Si Si’s time for military training was approaching. As a result, she did not talk with Wei Xiao Bei anymore and hurriedly left.

After Wei Xiao Bei left the gates, the five men and their Mazda 6 had disappeared.

Perhaps because they were also not good people, they did not report it to the police and just left.

In the next few days, Wei Xiao Bei concentrated on treating his injuries and did not rush to go into The Dust World.

He also talked with Cheng Si Si twice on the phone during this time. She had obtained a bit more information about the matters inside the university.

On the night that Wei Xiao Bei entered The Dust World, there was indeed a third year girl named Li Shan who disappeared.

The times she had gone missing and had appeared in The Dust World had a close correlation. Moreover, the girl named Li Shan’s disappearance was different from the few students before her. She was studying in the library on that night, and did not return back to the dormitory afterwards.

The library computer still had information on the books she borrowed.

Without a doubt, the girl name Li Shan was the female student that Wei Xiao Bei met.

This was the reason why Wei Xiao Bei had payed attention to her. He did not have any regret or guilt, but rather, he wanted to find out how they entered the Dust World!

How come I can enter The Dust World! Why do I have such an unimaginable thing as a status panel?

Wei Xiao Bei felt that he would not be able to sleep comfortably until these matters were cleared up.

However, he knew that this matter was not such an easy thing to ask. Perhaps he would only understand it once he died in The Dust World.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He stood at one corner of the outer practice ground and striked a tree continuously. The tree continuously shook and its leaves kept falling.

He was carrying out recovery training. He calculated that his previous training was not fruitless, but its effect on the status panel was weak.

After all, according to normal training, the strength and agility attributes would need at least half a month to increase by 0.01 point. Moreover, by increasing his attributes with the status panel, his training results became worse.

This was also the reason why he given up on the weighted vest.

However, even if that was so, he still carried out recovery training. He believed that there were benefits to his body in doing so. Moreover, it would allow him to grasp the limits of his strength, so that in the future, he would not go over the limits of what his body could handle.

The floor and table were covered in dust, his new poster of Zhang Liang Ying that had just been posted on the wall a few days ago had already become yellow and tattered all over. Even Zhang Liang Ying’s beautiful face became monstrous, as if an old devil was looking at him with a terrifying smile. The walls were covered by a mist of cobwebs and the fruits placed on top of the coffee table were withered and rotted to the point that the mold on them had turned black. The fruits below even seemed to have turned into mush. The aluminium framed window that the landlord had just installed not that long ago was now covered in a layer of white ash and the glass was filled with cracks and covered in dust. The computer beside his bed was also covered by cobwebs and was accompanied by an empty water glass with a withered worm inside of it. Dust filled the air making Wei Xiao Bei choke as he tried to breathe. Everything seemed to be ash gray without any light, as if looking at television static.
