Reborn As a Snake, I Can Absorb Fear

Chapter 25 It Wasn’t a Dream After All”Brother Hao, are you okay!” Chen Qian hurriedly went to Jiang Hao’s side and asked with concern.

”Qianqian, I’m fine.” Jiang Hao comforted Chen Qian.

”You two, speak up. Who are you? Why did you appear here at the Girls Dormitory, and what are you trying to do?” Jiang Huaian walked up to Wang Hai and Jiang Hao and said in a deep voice.

”Teacher, we encountered something strange last night.”

Jiang Hao didn’t answer Jiang Huaian’s question; he was now impatient to figure out what exactly happened last night.

”That’s right, Teacher. Last night, Jiang Hao and I encountered something bizarre.” Wang Hai chimed in from the side; he also felt that what happened last night was incredible.

”Strange things? What strange things? You tell me.” Jiang Huaian pointed at Jiang Hao, signaling for him to speak.

”Teacher, it’s like this. Last night, Wang Hai and I came here...”

Jiang Hao concealed the purpose of why he and Wang Hai had come here, only saying that the two of them had stumbled in by mistake and were then inexplicably trapped in a place surrounded by lava.

Afterward, he carefully recounted the experience of being trapped on a stone slab surrounded by lava, emphasizing the realistic sensations he felt.

When Jiang Hao finished speaking, the surrounding crowd fell silent. Everyone looked at Jiang Hao with strange expressions, except for two people.

Chen Qian and Su Ling were deep in thought. Their encounter the night before was actually similar to Jiang Hao’s, except that Jiang Hao and his friend didn’t meet the clown or play any games; they just thought they were trapped in lava, waiting to be consumed by it.

”Teacher, everything I’m saying is true. Wang Hai can testify; he experienced it with me. In the end, he even pushed me down. That feeling couldn’t be fake; I really thought I was going to die.”

Seeing that the crowd didn’t seem to believe his words, Jiang Hao became anxious.

”That’s right, Teacher. Jiang Hao is right; I can testify.” Wang Hai nodded hurriedly.

Jiang Huaian remained silent. The two’s expressions didn’t seem fake, and one couldn’t fabricate such realistic sensations.

Could it be true? But they were clearly lying here perfectly fine.

”But you were clearly lying here perfectly fine!” A student nearby couldn’t help asking.

”We don’t know why either.”

”Director Jiang, these two came here sneaking around. They probably made up this story to clear themselves of guilt.” A security guard whispered to Jiang Huaian.

Jiang Huaian nodded slightly. That possibility wasn’t out of the question.

”Director Jiang, there are two pieces of unidentified meat nearby.” Just then, another security guard brought over two pieces of meat.

Jiang Huaian took the meat and examined it. It looked like pork, but it had already started to spoil slightly, clearly having been left there for a long time.

”Did you bring these two pieces of meat?” Jiang Huaian held the meat out in front of the two.

”Yes... no.” Jiang Hao initially wanted to answer yes, but quickly denied it.

”Is it or isn’t it?”

”No.”

”If it wasn’t you, then who else would bring two pieces of meat here? Did they fall from the sky?” Jiang Huaian shouted sternly.

Seeing that he couldn’t hide it, Wang Hai rolled his eyes and hurriedly explained from the side.

”Teacher, I brought the meat. I hid it on my person and it might have fallen out by accident. Jiang Hao didn’t know.”

”Yeah, that’s right. I didn’t know he brought meat with him, so I thought it wasn’t brought by us.” Jiang Hao followed up with an explanation.

”Then why did you bring meat?” Jiang Huaian asked Wang Hai.

”I bought the meat to take home, but I just happened to stumble in here.” Wang Hai replied.

”You aren’t a student at the school, are you? How did you end up here by mistake?” Jiang Huaian asked again.

”Teacher, Wang Hai is my friend. I brought him to the school. My girlfriend, Qianqian, is in this building. I originally wanted to introduce Qianqian to Wang Hai, but then...” Jiang Hao explained on Wang Hai’s behalf.

”Chen Qian, you didn’t know your boyfriend was coming to find you?” Jiang Huaian asked Chen Qian.

”Teacher, it’s like this. When we entered that lava area, there was no cell signal at all. We couldn’t send any messages, so Qianqian didn’t know.” Jiang Hao explained for Chen Qian again.

Jiang Huaian was silent for a moment. ”You two come with me to the Security Office, and Chen Qian, you come too.”

Chen Qian nodded blankly. The development of events had exceeded her expectations. Most importantly, she also had an experience similar to Jiang Hao’s, which made her unable to stop overthinking.

Seeming to think of something, Chen Qian suddenly looked at Su Ling. ”Teacher Jiang, Su Ling should also go with us.”

”Chen Qian, are you crazy! Why should I go with you? I didn’t participate.” Su Ling said angrily. She had originally been worried that Jiang Hao and the others were knocked out by Little White, but it turned out that wasn’t the case, yet Chen Qian was still refusing to let her go.

Jiang Huaian frowned, looking at the unreasonable Chen Qian with displeasure. ”Student Su Ling has nothing to do with this matter; she doesn’t need to go.”

”Teacher Jiang, she must go. I also have an important matter to report, and it concerns her.”

”What matter?”

”It’s about something similar to what Jiang Hao and the others encountered. Su Ling and I have also experienced it.”

”What?” Jiang Huaian was shocked, his expression immediately turning serious. ”Su Ling, is what she said true?”

Su Ling was silent for a moment and sighed inwardly. She actually didn’t want to say it, but since Chen Qian had already spoken, she couldn’t hide it even if she wanted to, so she nodded slightly, signaling affirmation.

”Alright then, you come along too.”

”Teacher Jiang, can I bring Little White?” Su Ling asked.

Jiang Huaian looked at the Big White Snake following Su Ling, suppressed the urge to give it a good beating, and nodded. ”You can.”

No, why are you calling me over while you chat?

Jiang Feng was speechless. He had been watching the commotion for a long time and thought this matter wouldn’t involve him, but he didn’t expect to be dragged into it by this silly girl, Su Ling.

”Little White, let’s go.”

On the way, Jiang Hao and Wang Hai looked at Jiang Feng several times, a trace of greed still flashing in their eyes.

Seeing the two’s gazes, a flash of killing intent immediately crossed Jiang Feng’s mind.

Damn it, these two dogs still haven’t given up their wicked intentions.

Jiang Feng was already planning how to continue teaching these two dogs a lesson.

Inside the Security Office, Jiang Huaian sat on the sofa as soon as he entered.

After Jiang Feng, the four people, and the snake entered, he had the security guard close the door.

”Student Chen Qian, you said that you and Su Ling also encountered a similar illusion. When was it? Was it also last night?”

”No, Teacher. We encountered the illusion the night before last; we didn’t encounter it last night.”

”Then what kind of illusion did you encounter?”

”We were sleeping in bed at the time, and suddenly, we inexplicably appeared in a void in the sky, and then...”

Chen Qian began to recount the encounter from the night before last vividly. If it weren’t for the incident with Jiang Hao and the others today, Chen Qian might have thought it was just a dream.

But after hearing that Jiang Hao and the others had also encountered such a bizarre event, she no longer thought it was a dream.

”What I said, Su Ling can testify to; she experienced it with me.” After finishing, Chen Qian, fearing that Jiang Huaian wouldn’t believe her, emphasized Su Ling as a witness.

”That’s right, Chen Qian is correct.” Su Ling nodded. This was the first time they had reached an agreement, which was rare.

Agreement my foot, Jiang Feng muttered to himself. If this silly girl Su Ling kept talking to them, she might end up exposing him.

”Qianqian, so you guys also experienced the same illusion as us.” Jiang Hao, as if finding a kindred spirit, grabbed Chen Qian’s hand.
