Chapter 528 Midnight Shadow

No matter where you are, the campus at night will give people a weird feeling.

Royal Masters College is no exception.

"How should I put it? This atmosphere is really weird."

Standing in the corridor, looking at the scene in front of him, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but sigh. It’s not without reason that places like schools, hospitals, and amusement parks often become the sets of horror movies. To be honest, the contrast between those busy places during the day and the silence in the evening is really unsettling.

Not to mention that Royal Masters College is an educational institution with a long history. The decoration here is also quite quaint. The cold moonlight shines into the corridor through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the corridor and shines on the paintings and decorations on the walls. It makes people feel that this is nothing special. I'm really sorry for this atmosphere.

Logically speaking, Duanmu Huai should start investigating clues at this time, looking for traces, and then find out the real culprit.

Unfortunately...it's too much trouble.

And there are too few clues.

So Duanmuhuai just goes hard.

That's right, investigate a ghost, search a ghost, think a ghost. He could just sit back and wait in the master's academy!

Judging from these two situations, it is very likely that the other party launched Sharnos in the Master Academy, and then sucked the two unlucky guys into the Dark City and killed them. If this is the case, then all you have to do is wait and see as before!

As for the notice letters from those idiots... whoever wants to read them can read them, but Duanmu Huai doesn't like them anyway.

What he hates the most is people like Kaitou Kidd who are so proud of giving others brain teasers. Although he doesn't know who that idiot is, Duanmuhuai can be sure that when he finds him, he will definitely give it to him. A pass on Euler - he hates the Riddler the most!

The Riddler is no fun! They are all treacherous bastards!

It is already late at night, and ordinary students have already gone home from school. Only some laboratories and discussion rooms still have lights on. In them, several students and teachers can be seen gathering together to discuss various scientific researches. Topic - Of course, for Duanmu Huai, he couldn't understand this kind of heavenly book, so he just listened and eavesdropped outside the laboratories on each floor, mainly because he wanted to see Let's see if anyone discusses topics similar to evil gods...but unfortunately there aren't any.

So Duanmu Huai's only interest immediately turned into finding beautiful women among these people.

But alas no.

This is not to say that there are no beauties in Shuo Academy, there are still beautiful girls like Mary, but the atmosphere here in Fog City is conservative after all, and no normal young lady will go out for a night out at night, so Duanmuhuai changed to a laboratory In another laboratory, I basically only saw a bald Mediterranean teacher and a group of tired male laboratory dogs that stuck out their tongues and panted... Well, this is normal.

On the first night, Duanmuhuai gained nothing.

The next night, there was no Duanmuhuai either.

So he had no choice but to make a big move.

Fishing, of course, still requires bait.

"Huh? You want me to be responsible for luring the enemy?"

When she heard the request from Duan Muhuai on the communication machine, Mary was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

"Of course there is no problem, but my access control is very strict. If I stay out all night..."

"No need to go to such trouble. You go back first, and then I will go to your room to find you and take you to school."

"this……………"

Facing Duanmu Huai's words, Mary hesitated. As a lady, it was obviously not etiquette to invite a man into her room late at night, but she still nodded.

"I understand, but what should I say if someone finds out and asks?"

"Can't you just say that you left your homework or textbooks at school and forgot to take them away?"

"Hey? Can you forget this?"

Mary was shocked when she heard what Duanmuhuai said, and Duanmuhuai was also shocked when she heard what Mary said.

"What? Didn't you forget your textbooks or homework in school?"

"...I'm very sorry, I have never..."

After all, as a top student in the history department, Mary worked very hard every day, and it was even more impossible for her to make such a stupid mistake as forgetting her homework at school.

"Well... in short, that's it, do you understand?"

"I understand, then may I ask sir..."

"Um?"

“Since I’m going to forget my homework at school, do I still have to do it??”

"...That's just an excuse, it doesn't really mean you forgot your homework at school."

Duanmuhuai sighed helplessly. He found that Mary was sometimes inexplicably confused and honest.

"Ok, I see."

"Then I'll pick you up in the evening."

Soon, night fell again.

After finishing her homework, Mary sat in the room nervously, waiting for Duanmu Huai's arrival. In fact, she didn't know how Duanmuhuai would appear. According to Mary's idea, Lorena should be responsible for delivering the message as before, so that she could easily explain to Mrs. Hudson. But if Duanmuhuai came by himself, what should she do? Explain to Mrs. Henderson...

Just as Mary was thinking about all this, she suddenly felt a cold wind blowing behind her. Mary turned her head and saw that the originally closed window had opened at some point, and the cold night wind was blowing from outside. Come in.

Didn't you close the door?

Mary walked to the window and stretched out her hand to try to pull the window back and close it. She leaned out, and then a big hand suddenly appeared from above Mary's head and grabbed her collar. Before Mary could react, she was dragged out of the room like a kitten!

"Ah---!"

Mary was frightened by the sudden attack and subconsciously wanted to scream, but soon a big hand appeared from behind and covered Mary's mouth, and then Duanmu Huai's voice sounded.

"Don't scream, it's me."

"First, sir!"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's voice, Mary's heart was finally put down. She turned around tremblingly and saw Duanmu Huai squatting on the roof, holding her collar with one hand and watching her.

"I was really scared. Why did you use this method? I thought..."

"This is more convenient. Okay, shut up, don't talk, be careful not to bite your tongue."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai hugged Mary directly in his arms. This scene made Mary's eyes widen in surprise, and she looked at Duanmu Huai with a red face. It was the first time for her to have such close contact with a man, not to mention being carried like a princess by him, which Mary had never thought of!

"First, sir... Wait a minute, we..."

"Okay, let's go!"

As Duanmu Huai finished speaking, the next moment Mary felt the sky in front of her suddenly darken. She turned her head and saw the building below her moving away rapidly, while Duanmu Huai strode forward, shuttled forward on the roof as if walking on flat ground, and jumped. His huge body did not look bulky at all at this moment, but instead seemed as ethereal as a shadow.

Mary, who was held in Duanmu Huai's arms, felt like she was riding a roller coaster. Duanmu Huai's strong arms bound her body tightly like a safety bar, so that Mary could only stare at the night scene and the earth flying up and down in front of her eyes. She seemed to be caught in the waves, sometimes up, sometimes down, and even the whole world was spinning in Mary's eyes... When Duanmu Huai brought Mary to the Royal Master Academy, Mary could hardly stand. "Woo... This feeling... is so uncomfortable..." Stumbling away from Duanmu Huai's arms, Mary now felt like she was drunk, feeling that the ground was undulating like waves, and the world in front of her was even more distorted. Mary closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before she came to her senses. Then she turned her head and looked behind her with a hint of dissatisfaction. "Really, sir, you... ..." However, Mary stopped talking before she finished. The reason was very simple. There was no one behind her at this moment. Duanmu Huai's huge body seemed to have disappeared at this moment.

"???"

Mary was stunned for a moment, then turned her head left and right to look, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Really, sir, what's the point of you hiding behind the lamppost."

Looking at Duanmu Huai hiding behind the lamppost not far behind her, Mary was a little speechless. She didn't see him at first glance just now, and it was also because it was too dark around, but Duanmu Huai's body was too huge. It was hard for Mary to not see him.

"………………Don't worry, you go your way, I'll just follow you."

"But... okay."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Mary really wanted to complain that it would be meaningless for him to follow her and be discovered by others, but since Duanmu Huai said so, Mary had to do it.

"So, where should I go now?"

"Walk around, anywhere is fine."

"………………Okay."
