The trio's shrill, piercing screams swiftly tore through the night sky!
Even the students waiting at the foot of the mountain to ascend heard those terrified cries.
They looked at one another in confusion.
The despair and unease in those screams definitely weren't something that could be faked by any performance.
Was it really that terrifying?
Wasn't it just the school's setup and arrangement?
As they discussed amongst themselves with puzzled expressions, on another part of the mountain path, the face of the female ghost revealed a look of astonishment.
She opened her mouth as if about to say something, then saw Seki Naoya and the other two struggle free and start running forward in utter panic.
"Strange," Shenzhu Shihui tilted her head and pinched her chin, murmuring uncertainly, "Is it really that scary?"
But she quickly seemed to think of something, pulled out a walkie-talkie from her chest, and spoke into it:
"First group has gone up, Kelian, get ready."
