Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 206

Eileen was running while constantly checking over her shoulder.

Noticing nobody following her, she finally took a breather and slipped into the school building.

About half the classrooms in the building were empty.

After all, the production team couldn’t hire hundreds of students for real. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Eileen was on the hunt for where the crowd was thickest.

So, she headed for the floor where the noise was the loudest, the fourth floor.

But when she got there, she found the corridor eerily quiet, as if no one was around.

That didn’t add up, she was sure she had heard voices just now.

A shiver ran down Eileen’s spine again.

Then, she noticed a light on in a classroom ahead!

Eileen hurried over to the backdoor of the room to peek inside.

In the classroom, a middle-aged teacher was standing at the podium, the students below sitting up straight, all eyes on the blackboard.

Seeing these people, Eileen breathed a sigh of relief, but something still felt off.

The teacher on the podium turned around, his eyes meeting hers.

The pupils of his eyes contracted sharply, he awkwardly pointed a finger in her direction, slowly uttering, “There’s a late student…”

Eileen froze.

The next second, the students who had been sitting up straight all turned around in unison.

Eileen’s scalp tingled in an instant.

These students, they were all wearing ghost makeup!

Their faces were covered in hair, their eye sockets devoid of whites!

The lights, both in the corridor and the classroom, suddenly went off.

Everything was pitch black.

– (AAAAAHHHHHH!)

The comments erupted with screams again.

Eileen was frightened to the point of nearly passing out!

She didn’t think twice and just ran.

She had been running in the corridor for a while when she bumped into someone…

Eileen was scared out of her wits, she didn’t dare look at who it was, she just grabbed their arm and hoisted them up!

At this critical moment, the other person quickly called out, “Ms. Lopez! It’s me!”

It was a familiar voice…

Eileen looked up and saw that she was holding onto Jarvis.

Eileen glanced at Jarvis, then at Bartley behind him.

In an instant, she felt relieved seeing someone she knew. She pointed behind her, whimpering. “There’s a ghost…” Seeing she was genuinely scared, Jarvis quickly comforted her, “It’s okay, it’s okay.”

As he reached out to pat her hair, Simon Lopez swiftly blocked his hand!

He shot Jarvis a warning look, pulled Eileen to his side, and shielded her behind him, “Don’t be scared, I’m here.”

– [Oh my god, one second I was scared to death, the next I’m appreciating their love. Where are the Fancy Island fans at!)

– [Right here! Fancy Island is my favorite. You guys were all talking about Jarvis, I felt shy to mention the characters from Fancy Island. The actors are reunited, isn’t that something to celebrate!)

– [They didn’t interact much before, I thought they would avoid each other after the show ended. Now they’re finally standing together again.]

– [He said “Don’t be scared, I’m here.” Ah, I’m so excited, I’m going crazy!]

Jarvis looked at Bartley taking such good care of Eileen, his face and eyes full of affection.

He asked, “Ms. Lopez, what exactly happened?”

Eileen cautiously peeked out from behind Bartley.

She pointed ahead, muttering in fear, “That classroom, it’s full of ghosts.”

Jarvis glanced in that direction, “I’ll go take a look.”

With that, he went over.

Eileen watched him leave quite quickly, she whispered to Simon, “Bartley, if he gets caught by the ghost, we shouldn’t save him, and we should just run, what do you think?”

Simon grinned, “Sounds good to me.”

Comments:

– [What?)

– (What are you even saying?]

– [I’m waiting for Jarvis to be caught by the ghost, turn into a ghost, and take revenge on those two.]

Jarvis came back after a while, completely calm, “There are indeed ghosts in that classroom.”

Eileen was surprised that he seemed completely unaffected, “Aren’t you scared?”

Jarvis shook his head with a smile, “I’m not scared.”

Eileen couldn’t help but marvel, “You’re so brave!”

Simon seemed a bit upset, he said grumpily, “What’s so brave about that, I’m not scared of ghosts either.”

Eileen blinked at Simon.

Jarvis also looked at Simon, he was a bit helpless, but he still said, “Alright, you’re the bravest, happy now? Are you a child to be jealous over this?”

Simon was speechless.

Afterwards, the three of them found a place to gather the information they had so far.

Jarvis said, “Bartley and I discovered that this isn’t the first time a female student has jumped from a building at this school. In the past three years, there have been five such incidents, and the circumstances of the deaths are very similar to the ponytail girl’s death today.”

Simon said, “Before I ran into Jarvis, I went to the basketball team’s classroom and saw Latham taking something out of there, then he left the school.”

Eileen immediately perked up, “He can leave the school? Can I…”

Simon shook his head, “You’ definitely can’t leave. Don’t even think about it.”

Eileen dropped her head in disappointment.

Jarvis asked with a laugh, “Ms. Lopez, what did you find out?”

Eileen hung her head and mumbled, “I’ve figured out a few things… First, not everyone in the school is going to be our informant, only NPCs who are directly related to us will give us info. Strangers don’t trigger any plots. Second, this school has security guards, who probably know stuff that the students don’t. But because I was caught climbing through a window, I was chased around by a guard for over half an hour. He’s probably not gonna talk to me. One of you guys should try and see if you can get more info. Third, my friend, the freckled girl, turned into a ghost. Her ghost makeup looks a lot like the ghosts in the classroom earlier, so I’m guessing they’re the same type of ghosts. Fourth…”.

At this point, Eileen turned to Jarvis, “I dunno if you noticed, but in the haunted classroom, the girl sitting in the first seat of the third row on the left, is the same ponytail girl who jumped off the building.”

As soon as she said this, both Jarvis and Simon were stunned!

The live chat also went nuts.

-[What? Was it really the ponytail girl?]

-[Is this for real or just a prank? Did anyone record it?]

-[I got it recorded, let me check!]

-[Wow, this whole story setup is really good, it’s getting more and more interesting.]

-[I thought Eileen would be too scared to notice anything, didn’t expect her to figure out so much.]

-(I just checked, it really is the ponytail girl, what the heck is going on?]

-(Quick, go check out Hedy’s live stream. She’s dead!]

-[What? Hedy is dead?]

-[Yes, she turned into a ghost!]
