The two rules represented by the student council and the investigation centre collided in the health classroom. Class 13 was stuck in the middle. They had become a force that couldn’t be ignored. At this moment, the side that Class 13 sided with would have the advantage.

“We should follow the school rules and attend the next class.” Liu Yi picked up Ji Jie. She and a few others expressed their stance.

Since there was a leader, the rest followed. The student council was not perfect, but they were better than the investigation centre. Plus, what they wanted was to leave the health classroom as soon as possible.

The teachers with the IDs wanted to stop them, but Class 13 started to resist. After all, they had the student council to fight for them.

“I’m warning you! Don’t provoke my Brother Ji!” Xi San growled as he hid behind Ji Jie. But honestly, Ji Jie did look scary. The skin on his chest rose, and his skin reddened. Her face grimaced from pain. The investigators wanted to get Doctor Lu’s opinion, but the latter’s attention was attracted by Ji Jie and Liu Yi. He had Huang Kong check the effects of the 51st student. After ensuring that nothing was lost, he grabbed all the stuff and returned to the second floor of the infirmary. He didn’t want to fight the student council head-on yet, so he allowed the students of Class 13 to leave.

“My friends!” Just like how he acted when he exited the art classroom, Xi San rushed towards the student council. Gao Ming stayed to help Zuo Bo. He planned to bring the other students with bandaged faces away, but after their bandages were taken off, their bodies would dissolve into meat piles. It was very scary.

“The infirmary is the place where students are treated as toys. These students are no longer humans, but they are toys. Their situation is worse than ours.” Zuo Bo stopped Gao Ming. “At least we’re lab rats, ones that have value.”

The students slowly exited the health classroom. They left Situ An a broken wall and the seed of fear.

After they left the office building, the students noticed something was wrong with the school. Before this, there were a lot of students in the school. They acted strangely, but the school still felt like a school. At this moment, everyone was acting so warily, like the end of the world was coming.

“Follow the timetable and attend your classes. Don’t worry about anything else.” After the leading student council member escorted them out of the office building, he hurried back to the activity building. This confused Gao Ming. Was the flood that hard to deal with?

The third class was supposed to be the English class, but since the health class took too long, they went to the school hall to attend the fourth class, Moral.

Moral was a class set up by Han De Private School. A few classes would attend it at the same time. Its purpose was to focus on building the morality and understanding of the students.

“The hall can be considered a neutral area. It doesn’t belong to any rules. In the next class, I have to focus not on the student council or Situ An but on Ji Jie.” Gao Ming was a bit worried about Ji Jie. The more crowded the venue was, the higher the chance of the Fear Illness triggering.

Ji Jie was at a critical point. He had seen too many scary things and heard too many scary rumours. The scary imagination in his mind might manifest at any moment. To make things worse, Ji Jie had a real ghost on his chest. Even Gao Ming had no idea how it became like this. He tried to approach Ji Jie a few times to get the fear doll back, but the doll was basically attached to Ji Jie. It was like a cat who had found its favourite cat tree.

“The afternoon will be You Liang’s social practical class, but I fear we might not survive the noon class.”

The normal classes weren’t that difficult. Both Situ An and the school rules were still holding back. After all, they had prepared a whole week of classes, and this was only day two.

Before they could recover from the shadow of the health class, Class 13 entered the hall. Everyone found the map on the wall and found their class seats.

“This time we are attending the lesson with other classes. We must be careful.” Qian Junran stood forward to remind everyone. He walked to Liu Yi’s side. “Liu Yi, is anyone sitting beside you?”

“Yes.” Liu Yi stood up to sit beside Zhou Sisi.

“You should tell that to the students from other classes. Tell them to be careful of the number 13.” Fatty had dropped the plastic bag. He hugged his stomach and didn’t even dare to speak too loudly.

The students from other classes entered the hall. As the crowd filed into the venue, Gao Ming felt more anxious. The class rang. The hall was full. There were around 300 students from 6 classes.

“All the students look fidgety.” Wang Jie picked up Xi San and forced him to change his seat so that he could sit beside Gao Ming, “Look at them carefully. Their mental condition is fragile. Their bodies shiver. It feels like they might go crazy at any moment.”

The big hall was full, but more students continued to file in. Even Zuo Jun frowned deeply.

“This morality class is hosted by Headmistress Yan. The reason the school has this class is very simple. Be it the school rules or the other rules, they don’t want the students to suffer from mental collapse and lose their values.” Ding Yuan sat on Gao Ming’s other side. This senior chief had many things to discuss with Gao Ming, but he had not found the chance.

“Headmistress Yan’s class?’

“That is also one of the reasons why Yan Xizhi hasn’t been killed by the school rules and the other rules. They need Yan Xizhi to stabilise the students.” Ding Yuan said worriedly, “This class is prepared for the students with mental problems. I don’t expect so many students to attend this class today.”

It had been five minutes since the class started. Headmistress Yan did not show up, but more students squeezed into the hall.

“Headmistress Yan doesn’t seem like a person who will be late. Did something happen to her?” Ding Yuan touched his black band to contact his subordinates.

The air in the hall seemed to freeze. Class 13 started to feel fear too. If the other students turned on them, they had no chance of surviving.

“There are too many people here!”

Even Gao Ming began to feel uneasy. He slowly shuffled over to Ji Jie’s side. If you put a mentally unstable person inside a singular room, his chance of acting up would only be 15 percent. But if you put a group of mentally unstable people together, any kind of interaction would cause a chain effect. The hall was a giant bomb. The only person who could defuse this bomb, Headmistress Yan, was missing. As more people entered the hall and the corridors filled up, some of the students eyed those sitting viciously.

“Can you let me sit for a moment? I don’t feel well. I had a nightmare last night.”

“I have not slept for a long time already. I’m still shaky from that. I can’t give you my seat. I fear that once I leave my seat, I will bite your face off.”

“Someone is tailing me! Move! He’s about to catch up to me!”

Various voices came from the other classes. Class 13 didn’t fare so well either. The oldest student, Cao Song, stared at Ji Jie’s back. He noticed the back of Ji Jie’s clothes was stretched open. His mother was crawling out. Since he was young, Cao Song feared his mother the most. His mother used the strictest method to raise him. There were many whipping injuries on his body.

“Impossible! Why is mother here?”

Cao Song jumped up in a hurry. It scared Fatty. He also turned to Ji Jie. His small eyes widened. Fatty noticed paper apples falling out of Ji Jie’s back. The apples were printed with his face. Ma Tao told him earlier how he died yesterday. History was repeating itself.

Every student saw different things. Their fear coagulated on Ji Jie to form a consensus: their most feared thing was on Ji Jie’s back!

When the consensus was gathered, the fake would become real because people started to believe in it.

Ever since he entered the hall, Ji Jie had kept his head lower. He held his chest with both hands until his fingertips were soaked by blood.

“It’s pointless. I don’t even know why Doctor Lu would be interested in an idiot like you.” The school doctor’s face appeared on Ji Jie’s chest. Ji Jie gritted his teeth as he tried to push it back down.

He wanted to be admired and be the focus, but he didn’t want to be a monster. He didn’t want to be the focus because of ugliness and monstrosity.

When he was back in school, the only time he was noticed by the whole class was because he lost the class fee and someone suspected him of theft. It didn’t matter how much he swore that he didn’t do it. In the end, the teacher covered up the fee with his salary. The matter was settled, but he remembered how his classmates looked at him.

“I finally got chosen for once, but I’m turning into a monster?!” The head on his chest tore out of his skin. Ji Jie doubled over in pain. Blood soaked Ji Jie’s cheap inner clothes. Cai Meimei, beside him, screamed. “Ji Jie, you’re bleeding!”

Everyone turned to Ji Jie. Being in the same room with the source of Fear Illness, their mental defence had already collapsed.

“Don’t look at me. Just pay attention to the class…” The more Ji Jie struggled, the happier the doctor’s head laughed. The surrounding students discovered this.

“What’s wrong with your chest? Did you bring the doctor’s head out?”

“Don’t worry, Ji Jie. It’s fine.”

“Have you been infected by the parasite?”

“Ji Jie, are you still there?”

The other students were attracted by Class 13 too. Many students who had no seats leaned over.

“Since when did the school have a Class 13? I haven’t heard of them before.”

“Some ghosts are breaking the rules!”

“What an ugly person.”

“It should be a new scapegoat ghost.”

Many voices entered Ji Jie’s ears. He was about to crumble. He couldn’t hold the doctor on his chest anymore. The fear behind him also gave him endless pressure.

The fear that Ji Jie had experienced since he was born appeared in his mind. Being ostracised, looked down on, accused of being a thief, and scolded by his family… His only sanctuary was himself.

“I don’t want to be like this, but I can’t hold on anymore. Run and stay away from me…” Intermittent voices came from Ji Jie’s lips. The horrifying images froze in his mind. Four mouths grew the face, the giant tree made of flesh, the many corpses, the bloody and insane paintings, he visualised the fear behind him!

At that moment, no one noticed the fear doll hidden inside Ji Jie’s branded clothes. It crawled on Ji Jie’s back. The childish doodles on its body turned into Ji Jie’s fearful thoughts. Its face grew four mouths. Its body grew like a giant tree.

Gao Ming, who was moving towards Ji Jie, had his heart jump. The God of Blood and Flesh resonated with this moment. He looked at Ji Jie’s location with shock.

Blood flowed, and Ji Jie let go of his hands. The doctor’s head crawled out of Ji Jie’s chest with a strange laughter. It twisted its neck around to look at Ji Jie. When the doctor saw Ji Jie, his lips turned purple. He saw the giant tree that was strung with dead bodies, reaching up into the roof of the hall. The eight thick branches hung with the bloody death portraits of the students from Class 13.

The more valid the fear, the more powerful the manifestation. In this hall filled with students, everyone was a nutrient for the doll.

The branch slammed down. When the doctor exuded fear and believed in it, his face was pierced through.

The floor and the seat were smashed. After the leaves and branches touched the ground, they spread rapidly. The screams inside the hall flipped the roof. The students scurried to escape. Fear Illness entered its last stage.

Standing under the giant tree of flesh, Gao Ming’s throat wiggled. He could feel the excitement from the God of Flesh and Blood. “How come it feels like I’m the pretender?”
