Corpse Party: Kyoko Yukimura's route

[CHAPTER 3]

I've been walking around for awhile now, maybe an hour and a half, but I still haven't found anything. My search has led me back to the hallway where everything went down, but all that's there is that small splatter of blood of an unknown origin. I stop in front in front of the infirmary, an area I've been wanting to check out for awhile now. But the door's always been locked, so I haven't been able to explore. While wandering these halls, I learned several things. Blue ghosts are passive and red are vengeful. There are also four child spirits. A boy, a girl with missing eye, a third child with most of their head missing and a girl with a red dress. The first three are all violent and are responsible for several of the deaths here. Not much was told on the girl with the red dress. I found an old news paper clipping in one of the classrooms. Many years ago, there was a kidnapping and murder incident that took place in this school's basement. The four child ghosts are all victims from it. Only the girl in the red dress survived. She should still be alive, so why is she a ghost in child form? The school apparently closed down due to a numerous amount of incidents and low attendance after that. The school's principal then threw himself from the school roof the day before the closure. There's a high chance that he's haunting this place also. I try the infirmary again and to my shock, it opens. The infirmary is pretty well lit, which is in stark contrast to the rest of the school. It looks like any old school infirmary. There's a desk on the far way with a book on it. 'Diary' is it's title. But it's stuck to the table and it doesn't look like it's moving anytime soon. I check the cabinets on either side next, looking for useful materials. It's mostly old, expired medicine, but I find a few bandages and some cloths that can be used for splints or slings. I put them in my bag and am about to leave the cabinets, when a peculiar bottle catches my eye. "Why is there chloroform in an infirmary?" I wonder aloud. I take it with me none the less, just in case I run across an opponent who isn't a ghost. Like Kizami. I'm not entirely convinced that he'd try to kill someone, but that incident long ago, what he did to Katayama and that mysterious spot of blood doesn't exactly help his case. I leave the infirmary and make my way downstairs to the main floor.

"Gihhh bac! Gihhh bac!"

"Fooouuund you!"

"gurgle gurgle"

The child spirits must be by. I better be careful. I'm about to turn and go the other way when a familiar tune stops me dead in my tracks. It's the main theme for one of the games Ohkawa and Katayama play. Ohkawa must be nearby. If the child spirits are in that direction as well, then he might be in trouble. I write up a seal of banishment and run towards the music. The three child spirits are standing around a door to a classroom. One of them is holding Ohkawa's light blue mobile gaming device. That confirms it. Ohkawa is near. He's already injured, so he'll have a hard time fighting anything that comes after him. "Be gone!" I yell, holding up the seal of banishment. The words begin to glow brightly on the paper and the children disappear. Ohkawa's gaming device clatters to the ground. The seal burns up with a spiritual fire, having served it's purpose. I pick up the gaming device. It doesn't seem broken at all. Maybe Ohkawa is in the classroom the child spirits were in front of. I open the classroom and look around. Nothing but a corpse. Just like all the other times I've looked here.

"This way!"

"Who's there?" I ask.

"This way! Come on!"

There it is again. It's a female voice and it sounds way too happy to come from someone stuck here. Maybe it's a ghost luring me into a trap. I begin to continue down the down the hallway.

"No! Baka!"

What the heck? The voice just changed. Am I hearing things? Maybe this place is making me go crazy.
