Holy Radiance High School was shrouded in thick fog at night.
Darkness and fog blocked ordinary people's vision.
Even the lights could not pierce through it.
Three figures cautiously entered the main teaching building, one in front and two behind.
Following behind Tanya, Kena held the dazed Chen's hand with one hand, her nose constantly twitching as though she were sniffing for something.
At the same time, she raised the flashlight in her other hand.
Even with its high power, the flashlight illuminated less than five meters through the dense fog.
At the edge of the beam, the fog swirled and churned, as if some monster might rush out at any moment.
In fact, Kena had already caught an unusual scent.
"Are you sure it's here?"
Kena asked.
"My servant has informed me of this place..."
"Speak normally!"
The half-demon cut her off sharply.
If her friend had not fallen into this peculiar state after performing the rites for the dead, she would never have needed divination to determine the murderer's identity.
With her friend's "ability," she could have simply asked the dead souls directly.
But now, she had no choice but to rely on others...
One was utterly unreliable.
The other was terrifying.
"Damn it!"
Whenever she thought of Qin Ran, the half-demon cursed inwardly.
Her fear of Qin Ran made her instinctively reject him, yet she also needed his help. Only after mentally preparing herself several times did she finally resolve to pay the corresponding price in exchange for Qin Ran's assistance.
Even for a half-demon, that price was considerable.
But...
When she arrived at the old school building, she discovered that Qin Ran was not there at all.
The feeling of throwing everything she had into a punch, only for it to hit empty air, was unbearable.
