Chapter 18 A Critical Moment
Although there is still a long time before 24 hours, we can't stay in the classroom all the time. We need to rest and sleep. Therefore, the process of finding the traitor will only take more than ten hours at most.
We are currently unable to come up with any effective suggestions, which shows how terrible this disaster is. For a moment, everyone turned pale, and many people looked around with suspicion.
But no matter how much suspicion there is, there is no conclusion. In this case, Mi Qiqi made an interesting suggestion. She suggested that the people suspected of being the insider should stand up and then let them each defend their innocence, so that clues can be found.
It must be said that her method was effective. Soon, more than a dozen people stood up. Then, one by one, they began to defend themselves. Everyone observed their movements and searched carefully.
The first person to come up was a girl. She hesitated for a long time and finally said, "There is no way I can be the traitor. You can point it out as you like." After that, she went downstairs. Seeing her performance, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Mi Qiqi had no choice but to list this girl as the most suspicious person and continue the investigation.
Another girl came up to the stage and explained in detail why she was not the insider. She spoke with reason and calmness, so she was quickly rejected. Now it was another person's turn.
Just like that , more than a dozen people walked past like a revolving lantern, which made me frown.
Zhao Pengyu couldn't help but come over to ask me what was wrong, but I just lowered my head and said angrily: "Mi Qiqi is kidding. Relying on this method, you can't identify the real traitor at all, and it will harm other people instead."
"But everyone is at a loss, so we can only rely on her," said Zhao Pengyu.
His words reminded me, and I observed the situation . But after thinking for a long time, I still couldn't guess. At this moment, I suddenly looked at the classroom and felt unnatural.
This unnatural feeling made me slightly stunned, then I looked at the people around me and started counting them one by one.
After I finished counting, I turned around and asked Zhao Pengyu: "How many people are there in our class?"
"There are 64 in total, but Li Guomin and others are dead." Zhao Pengyu replied curiously.
"Oh, I see." I nodded, then looked around as if looking for something.
After a while, I suddenly realized something, but shook my head and went back to my deep thinking.
Seeing me like this, Zhao Pengyu shook his head and said nothing more.
After a whole morning, no one found the traitor. Instead, there were several suspected traitors. But at this time, no one was willing to identify them.
The bodies in the classroom were also handled by the police. What surprised me was that the police seemed to be indifferent to the death of so many people in our class within a few days. This indifference made me feel confused.
But at this time, I was busy looking for the traitor, so I naturally didn’t have the mood to care about this. I just kept this doubt in my heart.
During lunch, I gathered with Zhao Pengyu and Mo Qingyu to discuss the matter of the traitor.
"We haven't found the traitor yet, so we need to hurry," I said.
"The problem is that there is no way out now. Mi Qiqi's method is too unreliable." Zhao Pengyu said.
"There's no way. At the moment, except for her, no one else has thought of a solution." Mo Qingyu glanced at us and said.
I nodded and said calmly, "It seems that we must come up with a foolproof plan at this moment."
"What's the foolproof plan?" Zhao Pengyu asked curiously.
"That's a 100% sure way to find the mole," I said.
"How is this method possible?" Zhao Pengyu said.
"Yes, I just haven't thought of it yet." I muttered to myself.
After noon, the class was no longer in session, and everyone was discussing what to do next. Fear and despair were revealed on everyone's face.
At this moment, I found a note on my chair. This note was written to me.
There is only one sentence above, but this sentence leaves me puzzled.
'When Hell is full, the dead will return to the world of the living.'
Looking at the note in my hand, I looked around, but I didn't find out who gave me the note. Helplessly, I sat on the chair and looked at the note in front of me carefully.
The words on this note seem familiar to me. I seem to have seen it somewhere.
After thinking about it, I knew where it was. I had seen it in a movie before. It was a line.
How could someone give me such a note? I was very surprised, but I took the note back calmly and continued chatting with Zhao Pengyu.
During the afternoon, the people in the classroom thought of one solution after another, but they still couldn't find any trace of the traitor. As time was getting closer, Li Yutian became completely annoyed.
He stood on the podium and shouted frantically: "If we can't find the traitor, everyone will die. No one is allowed to go home tonight. Everyone stay in the classroom and think of a solution."
After hearing what he said, many people did not object. After all, at this critical moment of life and death, sleeping a little later means nothing to us.
But there is no point in just worrying like this, because I still can't think of a solution.
In this way, the whole afternoon passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening. Everyone was exhausted, but they all supported each other and looked for ways to find the inner ghost.
At this time, a girl suddenly stood up and shouted: "I suspect my deskmate is the insider. She seemed to be deleting something when the insider game started."
"It's not me, you're wrong." The girl next to her said angrily.
"It's you, there's no doubt about it." The girl looked at him angrily, then raised her hand and shouted, "I identify Li Qingxia as the traitor."
When she shouted it out, everyone was shocked and no one dared to identify him for a long time.
This time, she really made everyone's eyes light up. Everyone was eager to see the traitor identified. Who knew that when she shouted, her body suddenly shook, and then she screamed, and blood began to flow from her face.
She fell to the ground and said in disbelief, "Why? Why wasn't she there? I clearly saw it."
"Are you talking about the things in my phone? They're just some photos." Her desk mate looked at her with pity and explained.
The girl stood up in a panic. There was so much blood flowing on her face and body, but at this time, she didn't care. She shouted frantically: "Who is the traitor? I want to kill her. Kill her."
She was shouting and running at the same time, her movements were like those of a mental patient, but they were creepy.
Then she suddenly screamed, and then called out "Mom". Her body fell to the ground with a bang, and she never moved again.
"Another one died." I covered my eyes and said in a sad voice.
"Damn it, they are all gatekeepers of the underworld. I'm going to kill him." Zhao Pengyu said gritting his teeth.
"Who is the traitor? Two people have already died." Mo Qingyu said with a look of despair.
Li Yutian and the others also shouted in despair, and were even more frightened of each other.
The sky was gradually getting darker, and everyone looked at each other, with the deepest fear appearing on their faces.
Li Yutian stood up at this time and said in a desperate voice: "It's useless. The traitor is unwilling to come out no matter what. We are all dead."
"What should we do then?" Mi Qiqi asked tremblingly.
"Everyone, go back to bed. Tonight is the last night of our lives." Li Yutian waved his hand dejectedly, then turned and left.
As he left, everyone left too. And I left too.
When I got home, I didn't feel sleepy at all, so I just opened WeChat and started chatting with Mo Qingyu. That night, we seemed to have endless topics to talk about, and I couldn't hold on until the early morning when I couldn't hold on and fell asleep.
The next day, I came to the classroom reluctantly, just like a death row prisoner about to be executed. But when I walked into the classroom, I found that the classroom was full of people.
It’s just that their expressions were very strange. Some looked desperate, some were crying bitterly, and some were hugging their girlfriends and kissing them as if no one was around.
Seeing this, I suddenly realized that this was the last struggle before destruction.
When Li Yutian saw that everyone had arrived, he said indifferently, "I have no other options left. This is the only way I can use. Maybe it will save a few lives."
"What method?" Mi Qiqi said anxiously.
"Each of us, at the last second of the mission deadline, identified our deskmate or the desk in front of us as the traitor." Li Yutian said gritting his teeth.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked and looked at him with confusion in their eyes.
At this time, Li Yutian shouted: "I calculated that the number of people in the class is exactly even. This means that each of us can identify one person, so that the traitor will have no way to escape."
"But a lot of people will die this way, maybe everyone will die," said Mi Qiqi.
"Then what should we do? This is the last resort." Li Yutian stood up and roared, his expression almost crazy.
Facing his expression, everyone was silent. But it seemed that everyone agreed.
As the mission deadline got closer, everyone felt that death was calling them. Many people were already hysterical, and everyone seemed to have seen the entire classroom being destroyed.
However, at this moment, I suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice: "I already know who the traitor is. Let me identify him."
