78: Chapter 78 Plum Blossom 3
"Hahaha! Hahahaha!" Alice laughed wildly.
She gripped the scissors in her hand, aiming at the hearts of Pete and Bob, the sharp blades glinting with a faint arc of light.
"Yes! Alice, that's it, kill me too! Hurry!" Bob laughed excitedly.
In the pitch-black night sky behind the balcony, a flash of light suddenly appeared amidst the thick layer of dark clouds.
Then, that flash of light grew larger and larger, turning into a streak of white light that tore through the clouds.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the moonlight illuminated the earth once again.
Revealing three figures flying in the air.
"Teacher, can you speed up? My son is in danger!" Chen Mo reminded.
At this moment, Chen Mo and Amy Seeger were flying in the sky.
The two were riding a broomstick between their legs.
It was just like the witch's broomstick seen in movies, capable of hovering in mid-air.
By kicking your legs back twice, the broomstick would emit starlight, carrying you to soar freely through the sky.
Sadi the dog was also sitting on it, clutching Chen Mo's waist tightly, with its dog head resting on Chen Mo's shoulder.
"Seriously, can you stop hugging my head? Damn it, it's itching me to death."
Sadi hadn't taken a bath for several days, and its fur had been rolling in the grass earlier, so it was already infested with quite a few fleas.
Now that the man and dog were in such close contact, the fleas were all cheering loudly.
The flea brothers packed their luggage and hurried to move house.
"Woof woof!" Sadi barked twice, feeling aggrieved.
"I can speed up, hold on tight!"
Amy Seeger, dressed in a magnificent white tailcoat, waved his hand, and the white top hat on his head instantly transformed into doves.
Those doves flapped their wings, lined up in a single file, and all clung to the underside of the broomstick.
Then they flapped their wings desperately.
Immediately after, the broomstick was like it had been equipped with a rocket thruster, moving so fast that Chen Mo couldn't even breathe.
His face was even twitching uncontrollably.
Their vision approached the balcony, getting closer and closer.
Amy Seeger took out a red cedar magic wand from the collar pocket of his suit.
The top of the magic wand was shaped like a star.
After waving it a few times in the air, he chanted a spell.
Upon hearing Amy Seeger's call, the originally gray star suddenly lit up.
A flash of white light shot out with a "Bang!"
It struck Alice's back.
The intense white light spread rapidly through the space.
The scissors in her hand shattered on the spot, Alice collapsed to the ground, and a little girl's ghost crawled out from her back.
The ghost girl knelt on the ground, extended her sharp claws, and repeatedly clawed at her own forehead.
Her fingernails slid along the top of her head, directly tearing three gashes into her own skin.
She turned her head and opened her mouth.
Dense black mist poured out from inside, crawling across her entire face like vines, with all her blood vessels bulging.
"Ah!——"
She let out an angry roar.
Amy Seeger ignored her completely, firing another "Z"-shaped flash of light, which sent the ghost girl flying into mid-air.
The ghost girl turned into black smoke, screaming as she fled the bedroom.
The broomstick stopped outside the balcony.
Amy Seeger and Chen Mo leaped down, entered the bedroom, and picked up Alice and Pete from the ground.
"Daddy?" Pete and Alice were both dazed and confused.
Chen Mo checked their mental values, which had returned to 0 again.
"I need to quickly give them some water of might." Chen Mo moved to head towards the living room.
Amy Seeger reached out and stopped Chen Mo.
"No need, the living room has now become the domain of those ghosts. If you go in, you will be instantly minced into meat."
"Teacher, do you have a way?"
Amy Seeger spread his palm and made a grabbing motion.
Then, opening his palm, two red candies had appeared in it.
After feeding one to Alice and Pete each, the two children's mental values instantly recovered.
Then, they didn't cry and hide in Chen Mo's arms.
The two of them still held a barrier against Chen Mo.
Although the father from these past two days was a bit different from the father of the previous six months, making them feel like their father was fun.
A bit like the image of an older brother.
But they still held reservations in their hearts; this was a mourning for the passing of their biological father.
Although this new father was very generous with them, giving them at least 100 dollars in pocket money every time...
"Teacher, what should we do next?" Chen Mo asked.
"Wait. Only after 3:15 AM can we enter the mirror."
Chen Mo felt it was a bit strange and asked again: "What if we go in before 3:15?"
"Impossible. That guy Vincent has a rule-type item. No magic can enter outside the stipulated time because this is a rule!"
"Oh, right, let me educate you about rule-type items. Seeing that your level isn't high, you probably don't know yet."
"This is a secret that only players above level 20 can know!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo thought to himself, but I already knew that.
There was no help for it; in order to keep his narcissistic teacher happy at all times and help himself obtain an S-rank evaluation.
Chen Mo still had to patiently listen to the content about the Management Group all over again.
Afterwards, he even had to put on an expression of shock and even clap.
Amy Seeger saw that Chen Mo seemed to have learned some earth-shattering secret.
He also proudly stroked his chin.
"Teacher, why don't the two of us go and take care of those ghosts first? After we enter the mirror world, they might attack the two children again."
"Wait! Where did Mom go?"
Pete and Alice shook their heads, obviously not knowing either.
Chen Mo immediately pushed open the balcony door.
He happened to see The Fat Guy dead in the courtyard.
Chen Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and saw the third playing card [King of Diamonds].
Hearts, Spades, Diamonds.
Only the Club was missing.
Chen Mo felt that when the fourth playing card appeared, it might be the sign that the dungeon was ending.
Either he dies, or he obtains an S-rank evaluation.
He stepped his feet onto the wall and began to run quickly.
With a backflip, he entered the second-floor balcony.
"Anna!" Chen Mo shouted her name.
Anna's bedroom appeared even darker than the children's.
Chen Mo pressed the light switch, but the light bulb didn't react at all.
He concentrated his Ghost Power into his eyes, and the magic solution flowing in his body exerted its effect once again.
Purple magic eyes appeared.
Like a camera switching, Chen Mo's vision changed.
The darkness thinned, and the brightness increased.
There was a person lying on the bed, not Anna, but the figure of a man.
Chen Mo gripped the bone-scraping knife in his hand and approached step by step.
He held the knife against the intruder's neck and, after discovering that the person had no breath...
Chen Mo grabbed the person's waist and immediately turned their body over.
In an instant, his breathing stopped, and thunder rumbled behind him.
Chen Mo stared blankly at the scene before him!
The person lying on the bed was none other than himself.
A balloon person in the image of Sam was lying on the bed, with a black playing card inserted into the center of its forehead.
The displayed character was: [3 of Clubs]
