Chapter 16 Who is the traitor?
The next day, when I arrived at the classroom, it was in chaos. This was a very common thing, and I didn't find it strange. Instead, I returned to my seat and started chatting with Zhao Pengyu.
After a while, Mo Qingyu came. She greeted me and then sat down.
I looked up at her, then continued to observe the classroom. I didn't know why, but I suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in my heart, as if something was about to happen. I couldn't even understand this feeling, so I could only shake my head and put this matter out of my mind.
The people in the classroom soon arrived, and everyone subconsciously picked up their phones to observe the situation in the group. At this time, no one was in the mood to say a word.
The entire classroom was silent, but the silence was soon broken because the words of the gatekeeper of the underworld were heard again in the group.
"Today we are playing a game of catching the traitor. The content of the game is as follows."
"I have placed a spy among you. Your mission this time is to find and identify this spy. Once the spy is successfully identified, he will be executed."
"After confirming the insider, you can post the name in the group to identify him."
"If the mole is not identified within 24 hours, everyone except the mole will be executed."
"If you identify the traitor incorrectly, you will still be executed."
Looking at the series of messages in the group, everyone was shocked, and many people shouted with pale faces: "How is this possible?"
Others looked around with anxious expressions on their faces.
Some people even stood up and shouted, "Who is the traitor? Come out now."
For a moment, the whole classroom was in chaos. Everyone's eyes were looking at each other in the classroom, and everyone's face showed despair.
This mission is really too perverted.
Compared to the usual missions, this one was really terrifying. Because if it failed, it would not just be one person who would die, but the whole class! What a terrible consequence! Just thinking about it was chilling.
Faced with such a terrifying task, we were totally at a loss. Everyone was shouting and screaming to vent their despair. In this situation, many women even burst into tears.
For example, Mi Qiqi burst into tears and screamed desperately. She seemed to be crazy.
In such a desperate situation, I am afraid no one would not be moved.
"Who is the traitor? Come out now." Li Yutian stood up and shouted, his eyes full of ferocity. However, at this time, even if the traitor was a fool, he would not come out. This made his expression indescribably ugly.
At this time, some people looked around with expressions full of doubt.
At this time, everyone looked frantically at the people around them. As soon as they felt something was wrong, they would immediately shout, "You are the traitor!"
In a blink of an eye, there were more than a dozen people in the class who were considered to be traitors. These people looked very surprised, and they all shouted that they were not traitors. But at this time, no one listened.
Originally, everyone in the classroom was in a bad mood. After this game, the lack of trust in each other exploded. Instead, suspicion and distrust were replaced.
At this moment the classroom became extremely chaotic.
I looked at the situation in front of me painfully, and I knew in my heart that this was exactly what the gatekeeper of the underworld wanted to see. Because only in this situation would he be the safest. Because no one would want to find him, but would think about how to survive.
Thinking of this, I secretly made up my mind that I must find a way to find the traitor and save the entire class.
Mo Qingyu looked at me and said softly, "Can you confirm who the traitor is?"
"No, it's impossible to be sure. Each of us could be a mole." I said with a frown.
"So that's how it is." Mo Qingyu's face was full of disappointment.
I sighed, then gritted my teeth and said, "This mission is quite cruel. If the traitor hides, we may all die, but he will survive. If he is discovered, he will die and we will survive."
"It can be said that there are only two possible outcomes at the moment. Either he dies, or we all die."
Mo Qingyu's face turned pale for a moment, and she murmured, "This is really terrible."
"That's not all. The cruelty of this mission lies in that if the traitor wants to survive, he will have to kill all of us. This is the cruelest thing." I sighed.
At this moment, Zhao Pengyu came over and said, "Do you think he will have a change of heart and admit that he is the traitor?"
"That's impossible!" I said, shaking my head.
"Why not?" Zhao Pengyu retorted.
I looked at him coldly and said sarcastically, "If you were the traitor, would you take the initiative to stand up and save everyone?"
Zhao Pengyu was silent for a moment. He thought about it, but he didn't know how to answer. After all, if he chose to save everyone, he would often pay with his own life.
"Everyone is selfish, not to mention that we are just high school students." I looked at Zhao Pengyu and said slowly: "If we can't do it ourselves, do you expect others to be able to do it?"
Zhao Pengyu nodded, then said self-deprecatingly: "Sorry, I think too much."
"Let's take a look at the current situation first." I shook my head and said while looking at the classroom.
At this moment, the classroom was in turmoil. Everyone was blaming and suspecting each other as if the world was about to end. In this situation, one boy could no longer bear it.
He stood up and pointed at a girl and said, "She is the traitor. I just saw that she looked strange and deleted her text messages."
"Bullshit, I'm not." the girl shouted angrily.
"Don't play dumb, you want to kill all of us." The boy shouted angrily, then pointed at her and shouted directly: "I identify Wang Yingying as the traitor."
"I said, I'm not." Wang Yingying stood up and shouted.
However, at this moment, the message from the gatekeeper of the underworld sounded: "The identification of the traitor failed. Wang Yingying is not the traitor, so Yang Zong will be punished by bleeding from all seven orifices."
Yang Zong looked at his phone in disbelief and screamed. Blood began to seep out of his face. Wang Yingying next to him said proudly, "You deserve it. I told you I wasn't that person."
"I will kill you." Yang Zong rushed towards Wang Yingying angrily, then pressed Wang Yingying to the ground and hit her madly. However, the blood on his face kept flowing, leaving him with little strength.
As the fight went on, his arms could no longer swing and his body fell to the ground, and he died.
Wang Yingying pushed his body away, trembling, and then backed away screaming, while desperately shouting, "I didn't kill him. I'm not the murderer."
Seeing this scene, many people turned pale. Everyone realized that if they failed to identify the person, they would be executed. In this case, they could not identify the person casually.
Seeing this scene, I was actually thinking about something, because I saw some traces in this death.
Zhao Pengyu looked at me so calmly and couldn't help but ask, "Did you find out who the traitor is?"
"No, I just found that the rules of this mission are very favorable to the traitor." I said.
"Yes, if the identification fails, the person will die. This makes people afraid to make random identifications," said Zhao Pengyu.
"Yes, if there is no such rule, everyone will point out the traitor one by one and they will always find the traitor. This shows that the gatekeeper of the underworld is helping the traitor." I said calmly.
"Then what should we do?" Zhao Pengyu raised his head and looked at me anxiously. I could see that he was also very scared.
"I don't know, but we still have time. We will find a way." I said calmly.
"I'm wondering why you are so calm. It's really strange." Zhao Pengyu looked at me and suddenly said.
"I don't know why, this has happened several times." I looked at the classroom in front of me, smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe this is a talent I was born with."
Zhao Pengyu nodded, and then did not ask me any more questions. Instead, everyone in the classroom looked around with suspicion, but no one dared to point fingers.
After all, if you identify the wrong person, you will die, unless you are 100% sure of the identity of the traitor. But so far, everyone is just suspicious and cannot confirm the identity at all. At this time, no one dares to act rashly.
For a moment, the situation was deadlocked, and everyone in the classroom was arguing. The situation was moving towards a dangerous situation.
However, at this moment, Cao Hu suddenly stood up and shouted: "Have you ever thought that maybe the traitor this time is the class monitor. Because he is not in the class, he escaped all our suspicion."
"That's right, it might be the class monitor."
"Cao Hu, you are so smart."
Along with everyone's praises, Cao Hu shook his head proudly, but his eyes looked at Mo Qingyu greedily.
I stood up unhappily and said, "If you are so sure, why not point it out?"
Hearing what I said, Cao Hu's face turned bad. He opened his mouth but didn't have the courage to speak. He froze there for a while. His face was so embarrassed.
Seeing him like this, Mo Qingyu smiled slightly, but then she worriedly said, "No one dares to identify him, so what should we do next?"
"Things will turn around." I looked at Mo Qingyu and said firmly, "I will find a way to save you."
"Well, I believe you." Mo Qingyu looked at me, but his expression was indescribably worried.
The current situation is really almost unsolvable. The traitor is hiding among us, and there is no evidence to prove his existence. If we can't find the traitor before tomorrow, then our whole class will die. Just imagining that scene is chilling.
