"that is!"
Some students protested.
“Isn’t this even better? It can be a testament to your friendship.” Shi Chen remained unmoved.
"why is it like this?"
"Hurry up and draw lots! Everyone has to participate!"
"The principal is so domineering..."
"The old principal was much easier to deal with..."
"But the original principal was a pervert; he always took advantage of female students."
"Okay, the current principal is better."
"Alright, go ahead and draw yours, you might not even make it to the finish line."
"Too......"
Everyone started drawing lots one after another, but Shichen didn't let Lala and the others draw.
He's the principal, so he makes the decisions. Lala and the others definitely don't need to participate in the drawing; he'll just accompany them to test their courage later.
Soon everyone had drawn their numbers and called out their partners. Unsurprisingly, there were many men with men and women with women.
Seeing that everyone had found their people, Shi Chen announced, "Alright, the test of courage begins!"
The group started setting off together.
The test of courage takes you from the foot of the mountain to the top. This area is extremely desolate and quiet. Apart from the hotel, there are no other buildings, and it is all forest, pitch black.
There were many obstacles along the way, and staff members dressed as ghosts made things extremely difficult.
"what--!"
Suddenly, someone started screaming.
As if a chain reaction had occurred, screams rose and fell.
"Ah ah--!"
"There's a ghost!"
"Help--!"
"Chen~ This looks really interesting! Let's go!" Lala came over and hugged Shi Chen's arm, looking excited.
"Yui, shall we go?" Shichen asked Kotegawa Yui.
Xiao An and Esther were beside her, but neither of them cared about such things.
Xiao An didn't even check the time; her mind was filled with the events of the day, a jumbled mess of thoughts, making her feel anxious and restless.
"Let's go." Yui Kotegawa nodded.
"Huh? Aren't you afraid?" Shi Chen asked in surprise.
"Why should I be afraid?"
"Weren't you very afraid of ghosts before?"
“That’s real… but the test of courage is all fake, what do I have to be afraid of?” Kotegawa Yui rolled her eyes at him.
"That's not necessarily true~" Shi Chen said with a meaningful smile.
"...What do you mean?" Kotegawa Yui became nervous.
"You'll find out later."
"...Maybe we shouldn't go."
"It's too late." Shi Chen took her hand and led her away.
"Little Dark, Esther, keep up."
“Yes, brother~” Esther immediately followed.
"..." Xiao An remained silent.
Starting from the hotel entrance, there's an uphill slope, and you can't see anything from there anymore, but that's not really relevant to the time.
The ground was soil, with a few pieces of wood placed intermittently, which could trip you up.
There was no time reminder, and after taking only two steps, Kotegawa Yui tripped.
"what--"
Before she could finish screaming, Shi Chen grabbed her waist.
"be careful."
"Wei, are you alright?" Lala asked with concern.
"N-nothing... What was that just now?" Kotegawa Yui hugged Tokimitsu tightly and asked without turning her head.
"It's probably wood," Shi Chen replied casually, feeling the texture on his arm.
"should?"
"Don't worry about it, let's keep going. Hold on tighter." Shi Chen also held her waist tightly.
"Oh..." Kotegawa Yui didn't think much of it for the time being and obediently hugged him tighter.
Chapter 250 A Little Romance Now and Then
"what--"
Before long, Kotegawa Yui was frightened.
Just past the first section of the wooden stake trap area, a warrior with a bloody head and arrows stuck all over his body jumped out of the bushes.
The key point is that there was light shining behind him, making his appearance clearly visible.
Even though Yui Kotegawa didn't believe in ghosts, she was startled by his sudden appearance, not to mention how miserable and creepy he looked.
However, apart from Yui Kotegawa, none of Tokimatsu and the others were afraid. Tokimatsu even waved and greeted the staff.
The test of courage was indeed interesting. His arm was squeezed quite badly, and he certainly had to thank the staff for their hard work.
"I hate it so much—"
When the staff saw that they didn't react to the time, they even started talking to scare them.
But it was completely useless. Lala still wanted to go forward and examine it more closely: "Is this an ancient warrior? Is it real?"
"Of course it's fake."
Shichen grabbed her arm and dragged Kotegawa Yui along the other, continuing to walk forward: "You can't disturb the staff."
"I see!"
"Walk, walk slowly... no, walk faster!" Kotegawa Yui was rambling incoherently.
"Should we walk slower or faster?" Shi Chen asked, amused.
Fortunately, Yui Kotegawa was there; if it were just Lala and the others, this test of courage would have been no fun for him at all.
"Go, go faster!" Kotegawa Yui replied in a trembling voice.
She hugged Shichen's arm tightly, burying her head in his arms, not daring to look around.
"Alright~ Xiao An, Esther, you two follow too."
Shichen didn't intend to keep Kotekawa Yui in a state of constant alarm. He called out to Koya and the other two and quickened their pace.
Along the way, there were masked people carrying axes and people wearing bear doll headgear... It was especially terrifying in this gloomy forest.
Unfortunately, it didn't work on Toki and the others. Kotegawa Yui also thought that since she was following Toki, she didn't feel any terror.
They caught up with many students on the way, and some of them were even frightened into fainting.
It's not a big deal. All areas here are monitored. Staff will come back and take them away.
Shi Chen also checked this area and found no danger.
He's a qualified principal; how could he not consider the students' safety?
"Help! Help me—!"
“Run!”
Halfway there, suddenly, a large number of students began to run back, all looking panicked and terrified.
"What's wrong?" Lala asked curiously.
No one answered her; everyone was too busy running away. But soon, the answer appeared on its own.
A red-faced, fanged monster slowly approached, its body covered in spots, and a chilling aura emanated from it.
This is indeed a bit scary for teenage boys and girls.
"What is this?" Lala released Shichen's arm and stepped forward to examine him curiously.
"Hmm? Aren't you afraid of me?" The ghost stopped and asked in a low voice.
"Don't be afraid." Lala continued to circle around him.
"What? This is how I dressed up carefully, and you're not afraid?" The ghost couldn't believe it.
"I'm really not scared, I find it quite interesting."
"Huh? This took me six hours to get ready! How could this be...?"
The ghost spoke its original voice, which sounded somewhat old, suggesting it was quite old.
He lay on the ground, utterly dejected, as if he had lost all faith.
"Um......"
Lala ignored him, pressing her index finger against her chin, and had other thoughts: "Playing the ghost seems like a lot of fun, I want to try it too."
"really!"
Pekai, perched on Lala's head, chimed in, "Lala-sama isn't suited to being scared, she's suited to scaring others."
