Ghost School

Life of Izumi: Escape

Ever since I attacked Kirian, their torture on me has been more extreme.

Starting from the iron bar, the term, and finally using the cutter.

When they were about to enter the semester exam period, they did not hesitate to hurt me using sharp tools to threaten me.

"You don't fuck around!! The first one is me!!" Shouted Kirian while pointing the cutter.

At first I was afraid because they did not hesitate to hurt me if I opposed them.

But...

"You're gonna be repeating the semester soon? The spirit! Auntie is waiting for the good news that you are ranked first!!"

Mom wanted me to be first.

"I have to do what Mom wants. Because I live for my mom" I thought

I finally tried hard on the semester break.

Then when the ranking list was pasted, I became the first with perfect grades in all subjects.

"Crazy! It's worth all 100. He's not human!"

"What devil did he wear to this reiteration?"

"Don't tell me he's mopping?"

People doubted me who was first, not Kirian. But the people in my class just kept quiet as if they knew I was going to be first.

And sure enough, Kirian was furious at being humiliated in front of everyone at school.

"How many times have I told you, I'm the one who ranked first!!! You deliberately wanted to humiliate me, right?!!" Shouted Kirian while continuing to beat me up

He kept beating me, ripping off all my writing books, and smashing the surrounding items until Rio and Rusen were overwhelmed to calm Kirian down.

After Kirian started to calm down and fell asleep in her room, it was now Rio and Rusen's turn to torture me for the same reason as Kirian.

After that I started thinking.

"Can't! I can't keep going like this!! Every day my whole body hurts and hurts. If it continues like this I won't be able to survive!!" Thought

"I can't stay here much longer! I have to go, get out of this house!!" Thought

"School problem, I'm still young and can still go to school again next year. What matters is that I have to get out of this house!!" Thought

At 3am, I left Hazuki's house with all the necessary items in my school bag.

I know every corner of this house. Because I knew there was a guard at the main gate, so I decided to climb over the fence at the back which was a bit lacking.

After a few minutes of effort, I finally got out of the house.

"Satur. Go anywhere, as long as it's far from here!" Thought

I managed to escape tens of kilometers from the house by taking the bus using my savings, and after that walked to a secluded shrubby road.

Until the sun was high above my head no one found me. Or maybe they weren't looking for me.

Whatever happens, I hope I won't see them again.

But...

By late afternoon, I felt like I was being stalked by someone.

"No way! So soon they found me?" Thought

I acted as if I was unaware of their existence and started to accelerate my footsteps.

I walked to a crowded place, mixed with people, and went to a small alley with a sense of uneasiness.

1 Hour passed, and I still haven't found them.

When I started to feel calm, they appeared in front of me.

There were 2 grown men in black suits blocking my way.

My face turned pale as soon as I saw the burly man.

"Young Master Izumi, it's enough to play hide and seek. You've lost, so let's go back. Mr. Hazuki is furious" said one man

"No..." I was panicking

I ran back to avoid them.

But because from the beginning my whole body was covered in cuts and bruises, plus I was carrying stuff in my bag, so my movements couldn't be fast.

They could easily catch me.

"Be an adult. You are no longer a child who if his request is not granted immediately wants to run away from home" he said, holding my hand.

I stared at them with annoyance. I kept trying to break away, but the results were nil.

Forcibly they dragged me into the car, and took me back to the family home.

After about 1 hour drive and it was getting dark, the 2 burly men took me to Mr. Hazuki's study.

As soon as I entered Mr. Hazuki's study, I was pushed so violently that I stood on my knees, and my hands were still held by them.

Mr. Hazuki sat in his chair with a serious and sharp look as if he was waiting for me to come.

"What else are you doing, Arato Izumi?"

"Definitely... Will be hit again...Or maybe worse" I thought

I bowed my head with a pale face.

Mr. Hazuki turned to look at the 2 burly men still holding me back.

"Where did you find him?" Ask Mr. Hazuki

"He played it far enough. We found him in the next town"

Mr. Hazuki stood up and walked over to me.

My legs were shaking so scared.

As soon as he stood right in front of me, Mr. Hazuki directly squeezed my cheek and raised it violently until our eyes met.

"I've warned you before, if you do anything, I can do anything to you! It seems like all this time I was too good to you that you looked down on me, yeah!"

"Hit... Caned... Caged... Not fed..." Thought

My brain automatically predicted what would happen to me.

Mr. Hazuki threw out his hand, and a man quickly grabbed something and gave it to Mr. Hazuki.

Sure enough, it was a whip.

"You must be taught a lesson first because it has made me troubled today because of your childish actions"

And sure enough, as I thought, I was whipped, beaten and kicked so I couldn't move a finger.

"It's weak! Just like this can no longer move! You two, take him to the barn and lock him up until he's aware of his mistake"

"Good, Master!"

The two of them dragged me straight to the dark warehouse and locked the door.

"I'm back again... Into here..." Thought

**

I was locked up for 1 week. This time the incident was not much different from when I was locked up in the Foren residence. I was only given leftovers once a day and a glass of water to survive.

The condition of my body became worse because of the influence of lack of nutrition, plus the trauma that returned.

On the 7th day I was locked up, the waiter who was in charge of delivering food for me found me unconscious.

I was transferred back to my room, but I did not receive any treatment.

After a few hours of fainting, I woke up and found I was already in my room.

Shortly after, a servant entered.

"Young Master Izumi, are you aware? The great lord calls you to his study" he said

I went to Mr. Hazuki in his study like the waiter said.

Geck, tok, tok...

"Come in"

When I entered, I found Mr. Hazuki reading a thick book. As soon as I saw him, Mr. Hazuki immediately closed the book and approached me.

"Hows it? Do you know what your mistake is now?" Ask Mr. Hazuki

My body trembled once again when faced with Lord Hazuki.

"Ma... Im sorry. L am... You've made a mistake..." Mumbles

"What's your fault?"

"Sa... L am... Already acted arbitrarily. Disobey uncle, and. make uncle's hassles..." Mumbles

"So, what do you do now?" Ask Mr. Hazuki

"I... I have to apologize..."

"really. How's it?"

"...Im sorry. L am... You've done something wrong..." Mumbles

Mr. Hazuki quickly grabbed my shoulder and pressed it down until I sat down.

"May.su...jud! Show me the sincerity of your apology by pleading solemnly!"

Quickly without a second thought I immediately prostrated myself under the feet of Mr. Hazuki while apologizing.

Mr. Hazuki crouched down and raised my head and looked me in the eye.

"I remind you once again. Don't repeat this again. If this happens again, I'll make sure you I return it to Foren's residence and tell him all about it!"

I immediately shuddered in fear.

If Grandpa finds out, he won't hesitate to do anything, even if I have to die. That's what I was thinking.

Since then, I have not dared to do anything that made Lord Hazuki angry.
