Missing

Regarding the ' Supernatural Situation ' in the classroom, the teacher simply disappears while they are still alive.

The students in the classroom may have been somewhat frightened, but they did not attempt to flee in any frantic manner.

Instead, their eyes were gloomy as they sat in their own seats and began to discuss the matter... as if this was something they had become accustomed to.

"My father has already obtained the relocation certificate and will be heading southwest tomorrow."

"Our family is still applying for the visa... I really don't want to stay here for another day."

Han Dong listened quietly to the students' conversation and collected the useful information.

Wait until the first person leaves the classroom, then signal the three members of the team to blend into the departing crowd and leave the classroom together.

Caution is important, especially at the start of the game.

If the other team knew their identities from the beginning, they could very likely be used against them in subsequent events.

American-style college buildings with red bricks and blue roofs.

The campus is quite large and the scenery is nice... but overall it looks a bit desolate.

It is the time of autumn to winter.

Fallen leaves, along with numerous missing person notices, drifted in the wind along the campus paths.

The school is located in Maine, the same Derry Town, but Bates Academy is nearly 100 kilometers away from Derry Town.

However, the strange disappearances have spread to this place...

As they passed a Storage Room in the Teaching Building, the three of them quickly entered it when no one was watching.

"The teacher disappeared in public, and everyone was indifferent... Such disappearances may be common in the current worldview, at least they often happen in this university."

The school is some distance from Derry Town.

The child abduction incident was originally supposed to have occurred in Derry Town.

However, the restrictions have now been "relaxed" and the affected area has expanded to include regions dozens of kilometers away from Derry Town.

This situation in the inner chapter must be related to the Abnormal Surface Ending that I created.

Cas naturally thought of the situation at the time and added, "Could it be that because you destroyed the entrance to the Underground Sewer, a large number of [Hidden Resident] came to the real world?"

Starting from Derry Town, a wave of panic began to spread to other parts of the country.

Just now in class, only we could see the 'arm'; what ordinary people saw was simply the teacher suddenly disappearing.

"Hmm... Also, from the students' conversation, it seems that everyone wants to get as far away from Derry Town as possible from Maine, where the town is located."

"Diana, could we arrest one of the school's teachers and question them?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Diana vanished from the Storage Room... Within ten seconds, a female teacher with her mouth gagged was dragged over.

[Opening Eye]

The female teacher, Eye Contact Lesser Demon Eye's gaze, stopped struggling and answered whatever Han Dong asked.

"What happened with the disappearances? Around when did they start?"

"At our Bates Academy, it's common for someone to disappear completely every 12 to 24 hours... These disappearances started affecting our school about two years ago."

At the time, the frequency of disappearances was still very low, and it did not attract much attention.

It wasn't until the police who came to investigate the disappearance also vanished that everyone realized something was wrong.

The school investigated the root cause of the disappearances and discovered that the whole thing originated in Derry Town in south-central Maine.

The closer you get to a small town, the more frequently people disappear.

Even Though if the country sends troops there, they all disappear overnight, bringing back no intelligence.

Everyone is trying to get relocation certificates; once they leave Maine, the chances of them going missing are minimized.

Based on the female teacher's relatively comprehensive answer, Cas's guess was confirmed.

Because of the ending created by Han Dong, the ' Inner-Outer Connection '... A force of panic is spreading from Derry Town as the center.

"Do you know us?" Han Dong asked the female teacher who was being mentally controlled.

"I know... Valen Nicholas, the vice president of the Student Council."

Cas Maldini, captain of the school baseball team.

Diana is a member of the school's cheerleading team.

You are outstanding students in our school.

Where are the student dormitories located? How can I find my dormitory room?

"The back of your campus card corresponds to the building and dormitory number... The dormitory buildings are built around the artificial lake in the center of the college."

"Okay, you can go now."

After the female teacher left for a while.

The three pretended to be a close-knit group of friends and went to the dormitory to formulate a more in-depth plan.

"Hurry up, don't look back... there seems to be something at the end of the corridor."

Because Han Dong's Lesser Demon Eye had just been used and had not yet been turned off, he could see what was happening behind him.

At the end of the passage was a blurry, indistinct object.

It seems to be hiding in the shadows, or perhaps attached to someone.

The strange thing might have been staring at the other students in the aisle, or it might have been staring at Han Dong and his two companions... As Han Dong left, the strange thing made no move.

Walking along the forest path covered with missing person notices, I arrived at the Dormitory Area.

In almost every room I passed, I could hear students talking to their families on the phone, asking when they could move out.

In extraordinary times and with more open-minded attitudes in foreign countries, it is quite common for men to bring their girlfriends to the male dormitory.

Even Though Diana had a pure and innocent face that could inspire fantasies, the other students didn't dare to have too many thoughts when they saw Cas, the baseball captain.

On clothing.

Because the weather is getting colder.

Han Dong was in poor physical condition, so he wore a thick down jacket over his school uniform, wrapping himself up completely, making him look rather unremarkable.

Cas wore a white-sleeved, black baseball uniform with a hooded sweatshirt underneath, paired with jeans and sneakers. With his height of nearly 190 cm and strong physique, this Cas complemented his overall look.

Sunny, strong, and handsome, he's definitely one of the top potential partners on campus.

Diana, on the other hand, wore a standard white shirt, black tie, pleated skirt, and leather shoes, paired with an out-of-season scarf, jacket, and black stockings... In addition, her innocent high school student face made her extremely attractive.

However, if you look at it for too long, you might get killed by the bones.

When Diana and Cas walked together, a perfect match, Han Dong looked completely superfluous.

Two-person dormitory room.

Due to system settings, Han Dong and Cas happen to be roommates.

The moment Han Dong entered the dormitory, he spread his senses outwards to prevent others from eavesdropping.

"We cannot rule out the possibility that another team is also at the Bates Academy... We should try our best to act like ordinary students."

As for the basic requirement: obtain a "Permanent Residency Permit for Inner Derry Town".

"We'll probably need to infiltrate deep into Derry Town, or perhaps killing just one Hidden Resident will suffice... We currently have too little intelligence and leads; we need to investigate step by step."

"Shall we set off now?"

"No need to rush... there are 'things' in the school."

First, use the object hidden in the shadows that caused the disappearance of teachers and students to determine if other teams are also in this school... If not, we'll try killing the 'object'; perhaps that will give us more direct clues.
