Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling-Chapter 41 - 43: Not in the Ground, but in the Wall

Chapter 41: Chapter 43: Not in the Ground, but in the Wall

By the time Su Nian woke up, it was already afternoon.

She dawdled while washing up and then ate a meal.

She lazed around until eight o’clock before finally starting to prepare for her livestream.

"Hello, everyone..."

But Su Nian hadn’t even finished her sentence when someone started frantically spamming her with messages.

[Streamer, this is an emergency! Help me!]

Su Nian found it very strange, but upon seeing the familiar ID, she accepted the request to connect.

The person on the screen was the last one from yesterday’s stream who had asked for a fortune-telling: the excavator expert, Zhang Yan.

"Streamer, what do I do? I went to the school and searched everywhere yesterday, but I still couldn’t find my son. On top of that, I got caught by security! Now I’m hiding outside, too scared to go home."

[What’s wrong with that school?!]

[I really don’t get it. She’s just looking for her son. Why is she so scared?]

[She must have been threatened by the school!]

[Could there really be a hidden story here?]

Su Nian was at a bit of a loss for words. With her abilities, she could naturally see at a glance exactly what had happened yesterday.

Rubbing her temples, Su Nian said with a sense of resignation, "First, tell me what you used to search yesterday."

Zhang Yan looked a little awkward, her eyes darting away.

She gave an awkward laugh. "You live up to your reputation as a streamer. You’re so perceptive!"

[Why does this feel a little weird?]

[Weird. Why do I get the feeling the lady is a bit embarrassed?]

[It was so late yesterday. Maybe the lady climbed the wall to get into the school in the middle of the night and got caught.]

[Based on my experience watching livestreams, there’s definitely more to this story!]

"Uh... I just... drove my excavator there..."

As Zhang Yan spoke, she avoided eye contact.

Su Nian facepalmed. "So you drove an excavator to the school to look for your son?!"

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Zhang Yan became indignant. "Of course I did! I’ve already searched the school so many times and found nothing."

"So he must have been buried in the ground! My poor child!"

As she spoke, Zhang Yan began to sob again.

But the chat room was stunned.

What happened to the suffering mother? How did she turn into a crazed excavator operator?

Driving an excavator to her son’s school in the middle of the night, all to find his body?

This is a little absurd. Let’s keep watching, maybe it’ll get even more absurd.

[I’m a little lost...]

[I knew it. The streamer’s broadcasts are never this normal.]

[I thought I’d seen it all, but the things that happen on this stream still leave me speechless.]

[It’s outrageous, but somehow... understandable.]

Su Nian sighed. "So, what do you need me to do now?"

"They don’t believe I was just looking for my son. Please, Streamer, help me prove it. Also, I really didn’t find him yesterday. Streamer, you weren’t wrong in your divination, were you?"

As she reached the end of her sentence, a hint of suspicion crept back into Zhang Yan’s eyes.

Su Nian looked at Zhang Yan and said, a little strangely, "Your son’s body is still at the school. It’s just not in the ground."

"Ah? Then where is it?"

"His body is in the wall of the newly built library..."

Zhang Yan, who had just picked up a cup, felt her hand tremble. The cup fell under the table with a CLANG.

The viewers in the chat room panicked too.

[Th-th-this... that’s too inhuman!]

[How could a person end up inside a wall?]

[I think it must have been a deliberate murder!]

[The new library... could it have been built just to cover up the truth of the lady’s son’s disappearance?!]

"Alright, I’ll go with you!"

With that, Su Nian prepared to drive, ready to take Zhang Yan to the school.

[Last stream was beating up a ghost, this stream is finding a body.]

[The question is, will there be a problem with the body? Generally speaking, if a child dies so tragically, won’t he want revenge on someone?!]

[What I’m curious about now is, what kind of person could be so cruel?!]

Meanwhile, the school was anything but calm.

Three figures snuck onto the school grounds.

"What do we do? Wang Hai’s mom is here!"

"Yeah, and she’s apparently saying her son’s body is still here at the school."

"Are we going to be found out?"

"What are you guys talking about?! Wang Hai was thrown into a cement mixer! He’s as dead as they come. He’s been mixed into paste and plastered into a wall by now. How could he possibly be found?"

"It’s all Zhao Cheng’s fault! If he hadn’t insisted on beating up Wang Hai, he wouldn’t have died!"

"It’s so cold... And Zhang Muyu, it’s your fault too! You dropped your phone back then. If someone finds it, we’re finished."

"Alright, alright, Yang Zian, stop complaining and just hurry up and look!"

The three of them grumbled at one another while trying to overcome their fear, searching meticulously inch by inch with their flashlights.

But none of them noticed a strangely shaped thing in the distance, glaring at them viciously.

"We’ve been looking for so long and can’t find it. Maybe it was dropped somewhere else?"

"Impossible. It must have been dropped in this area. Wang Hai was grabbing onto me the whole time, so it must have fallen then!"

"There’s another possibility... maybe it went into the mixer with Wang Hai."

The three of them guessed worriedly.

"Alright, alright. We’ve looked so carefully and thoroughly and still haven’t found it. It must have really gone into the mixer."

"Yeah, why don’t we just leave? I keep getting a creepy feeling."

"Yang Zian, you’re such a coward!"

"Zhang Muyu, you shut up! You’re the damn coward!"

"Okay, okay, aren’t you two annoying? Let’s just hurry up and go. If someone sees us, it’ll be even harder to explain ourselves. But I kinda have to go to the bathroom right now!"

Zhao Cheng hitched up his pants and looked around. It was pitch-black everywhere.

With a guilty conscience, he didn’t dare go to the bathroom alone and decided to just relieve himself on the spot.

He picked out a small mound of dirt, but as he walked over, he froze in disbelief.

Who would have thought that the phone they’d been looking for all this time would be right here!

He panicked at the thought of the videos and photos on the phone. But then, thinking of Zhang Muyu, who loved to threaten him and occasionally pick fights, a new idea sparked in Zhao Cheng’s mind.

He decided he would secretly take the phone. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to use it to threaten the other two later on.

But for some reason, although the small mound of dirt looked close, it turned out to be some distance away.

He was so focused that he didn’t realize he was straying further and further away.

By the time he noticed the ground beneath his feet felt different, he had already walked into a dilapidated corridor.

A shiver ran down his spine. Zhao Cheng realized something was wrong.

He turned to run, but felt an icy chill caress the back of his neck.

’I regret this. I shouldn’t have been so greedy and come to get the phone by myself.’

He spun around to flee, but the instant he moved, something grabbed his ankle.

"Don’t go... Keep me company... It’s so cold in the wall..."

"AHHH!!!!"

A piercing scream tore through the night sky.

The two boys, who were still bickering, finally sensed that something was wrong.

The scream seemed to come from the direction of the old dormitory building, and it sounded like Zhao Cheng.

’But wasn’t Zhao Cheng just relieving himself nearby?’ The two looked around, and their first instinct was to run.

But the strangely shaped thing was already waiting for them up ahead.

"Streamer, you drive so fast!"

A dizzy Zhang Yan, whose legs felt as soft as noodles, hurried to keep up with Su Nian.

But Su Nian, walking ahead, had an increasingly grim expression. ’Why are there two ghosts in this school?!’
