Chapter 71: Picture


    Based on the files from the file room, there were only two sses in the dance major in 09. The first ss had eleven students, and the second ss had nine students. While Fatty checked the information for ss One, Jiang Cheng turned the pages to ss Two. ss One focused on modern dance, and ss Two was for ballet.


    The first page was a group picture. The second ss had nine students. They were all girls. They looked so young. They just joined the school, their eyes glowing with anticipation for the future. Nine girls posed in front of their ballet uniform while a few teachers stood behind them. Based on the background, they should be in the studio. There was a wall of mirrors. There was the barre beside the mirrors.


    The picture looked normal. After the picture came the pages of information on the students. However, there were only eight pages while there should be nine. One page had been torn off. There were uneven bite marks at the root.


    “Why is there a page missing?” Fatty frowned and asked directly. Clearly, someone had purposely removed that page, and Fatty instantly thought the culprit was Luo Yi.


    Fatty turned to thest page. It was another group picture. There was a small row of words underneath the picture. Fatty had to lean forward to see what was written.


    Graduation Picture of 09 Dance Major ssic Ballet ss Two. The lower right corner showed that the picture was taken on December 09.


    Graduation… Fatty stared at the word, and then, his eyes widened.


    “Doctor!” He turned around to gasp, “That’s not right! They entered the school in 09, so how did they manage to graduate in the same year?” Then, he suddenly paused. He thought of something and whipped his head to look at the office table and the calendar on it. The calendar also paused on December 09.


    Could it be…“Continue,” Jiang Cheng walked over and interrupted Fatty’s thought. Thetter moved his focus back to the notebook he was holding. The graduation picture looked normal, but slowly, Fatty’s eyes coloured with confusion. There were only eight students in the graduation picture. Needless to say, the missing girl should be the one whose information had been torn away. Fatty clearly thought of that as well. Hepared to the two group pictures and soon found the ‘missing’ girl.


    The girl had a very sweet smile. Even back then, she was already a beauty. She would definitely grow up to be a stunner.


    Jiang Cheng took out the camera and took pictures of all the information that he thought was useful.


    “Doctor,” Fatty said with a frown, “I think the missing girl should be the ghost. She died for some reason and became a ghost.”


    Jiang Cheng put down the camera. “Is she the only one who has disappeared?”


    Fatty was startled. Then, he scanned the two group pictures again. Soon, his face paled. In the pictures… other than the girl, there was another person who had gone missing. It was the only male in the first group picture. He stood in the back corner, very inconspicuous.


    He looked like an instructor.


    …


    “Miss Xu,” Feng Lan’s voice came. It sounded weird, “Is the thing that important? We… we can go there tomorrow…” She sounded scared. Xu Wen and Zhou Taifu followed her. Their footsteps echoed down the empty corridor. They were in Block C, moving up the stairs.


    “Sorry for the trouble.” Xu Wen said, “During thest rehearsal, we lost a camera lens. It should still be in the music ssroom.” Her tone was polite, but it had an undercurrent of boorishness. Feng Lan looked pressured, and she stopped talking.


    Since they couldn’t find anything in the file room, the duo decided to move to Block C’s music ssroom. Out of safety considerations, Xu Wen called Feng Lan to join them. She was a teacher there, so she was familiar with the ce. Furthermore, they could send her in to scout ahead if there was anything dangerous.


    Seeing how cautious and scared Feng Lan was, Zhou Taifu was annoyed. He knew that Feng Lan was somewhat interested in his lover, Xu Wen. Due to her experience, Xu Wen exuded a handsome air. With her short hair, she cut a formidable figure.


    When they first entered Feng Lan’s hostel, he had already noticed the posters on her wall. Different from other young females who would have male celebrity posters on the wall, Feng Lan’s wall was covered in posters of female celebrities. They were mostly celebrities with low poprity. However, they all had short hair and sharp temperaments. They would be called handsome more than pretty. One of them had a side profile that was 90 percent simr to Xu Wen.


    The fact that Feng Lan was willing to apany them to Block C was another proof of her affection for his lover.


    Since they arrived at Block C, they had not encountered anyone. Zhou Taifu studied the closed doors, and he had a bad feeling, “Teacher Feng,” He lowered his voice, “Is there no ss for today?”


    It was not yet dark. The ce was overwhelmingly quiet.


    “I have no idea.” Feng Lan looked nervous. She reached into her pocket to grab the keys. However, the jangle of the keys frightened her instead.


    “The schedule is managed by the other teachers.” She pinched the key and focused on walking. She just wanted to help them find the missing lens and then leave.


    “But…” Feng Lan hesitated. She turned around and spoke as if to herself, “It is a little weird. This ce… is a bit different today.”
