Chapter 54: Killing on Campus (Part 9)
Xiulu gritted her teeth and briefly explained the situation, then forcibly dragged Lu Jifeng away.
Quan Shengyan glanced at Xiang Liangyu's arm. The wound had already solidified. The moment his fingers touched it, the wound healed. He looked away, holding back the churning of blood, and let go of Xiang Liangyu.
Xiang Liangyu turned around and put his hands on the balcony railing. The night was quiet and he could hear the sound of fighting in the woods not far away. The silence spread. Xiang Liangyu slowly said, "You just said that the players are studying how to escape from this game world? Why are they targeting you?"
Quan Shengyan turned his head to look at her: "When you were not here, Yun Panshan hacked into the system and arranged tasks that caused many NPCs to make mistakes or even die and be demoted. Although the system was repaired urgently, some information was still leaked. I don't know what they saw, but since then, their goal has been to destroy the world and kill me."
"Last world, players caused chaos in the kingdom. It was the Dawn Division who secretly promoted the riot."
Quan Shengyan's eyes fell on her hands resting on the railing. Behind them was a huge bright clock face, and the time on her watch was consistent with the time on the clock tower behind her.
Xiang Liangyu felt the cold wind and said, "How long have you been in this world?"
Quan Shengyan's silver hair became more dazzling under the moonlight, and his originally red eyes gradually dimmed: "I forgot. Once I entered here, there is no concept of time. There is only the number of games and the winning rate. I participated in 900 games, but fortunately, I met you a thousand games ago."
The corners of Xiang Liangyu's mouth slowly lowered, and he said in a soft voice, "Why did you come in?"
Perhaps because of her preconceived notions, she felt that Quan Shengyan's final destination should be the sea, the most gentle mermaid in the deep sea.
Quan Shengyan shook his head: "I forgot. Don't be afraid. I didn't show your face when I took you away. They don't know that the person in the classroom is you. Xiang Liangyu, I believe you, you will make a clear judgment."
Xiang Liangyu was stunned: "What am I judging?"
Quan Shengyan did not answer her question directly. The fight in the woods in the distance seemed to have subsided, the thick clouds dispersed, and the crescent moon was in the sky. They were at the highest point of the school. The buildings on the night campus were strange and gloomy, with a strange solemnity.
As the clock hands move, the sound of the bell echoes throughout the campus in the wind.
Xiang Liangyu saw Quan Shengyan's lips opening and closing. She still didn't know what words were mixed up in the sound of the bell.
Maybe it's a good night, or maybe it's...
Because she didn't submit her self-criticism, Xiang Liangyu was completely targeted by the counselor, but surprisingly, the counselor didn't do anything to her except staring at her quietly when he met her halfway.
Xiang Liangyu had been wearing the prop she got from Di He on her hand all the time, mainly because she couldn't take it off. After Fang Zi said it was not dangerous to her, Xiang Liangyu didn't worry about it anymore, and after a few days she completely forgot about it.
After more than a month, Xiang Liangyu felt a little powerless. The players stopped courting death. Apart from racking their brains to violate the school rules and irritating the counselors, they lived a very stable life, waking up at seven and going to bed at six every day, as if they really wanted to live peacefully in school until graduation.
Xiang Liangyu also became closer to the Rebirth Team. She revealed a lot of information half-truthfully, and after it was confirmed, even Bai Chuncao became less wary of her.
In order to meet Quan Shengyan every night, Xiang Liangyu made everyone think that she was with the principal. Qi Da believed it, and it was then that Xiang Liangyu realized that the Quan Shengyan Qi Da saw that night was a complete misunderstanding. The light position and stereotypes made Qi Da mistakenly believe that the principal was a middle-aged man.
The rumors were dispelled. Except for the constant suspicion of the Dawn Division team, Xiang Liangyu had a pretty good time during this period.
There were no classes this morning, but the counselor urgently notified us of a meeting at 10 o'clock. Xiang Liangyu looked at the time and it was 9:50.
As soon as she entered the classroom, the heavy atmosphere made Xiang Liangyu a little confused. The dark crowd filled the first six rows of seats. She realized that she was the last one to arrive. The counselor stood on the podium and stared at her coldly. Bai Zhizi waved her hand, and Xiang Liangyu walked over and sat down. She whispered, "What's wrong?"
Bai Zhizi shook her head and motioned her not to speak for now.
The counselor slammed the table, looking unhappy: "It's been more than a month since the start of school, and your attendance rate is the lowest in the whole school. There were only four inspections, but you disobeyed the teacher and slept in public. Are you going to rebel?"
Someone raised his hand: "The teacher taught us with his eyes closed. When we asked him questions, he pretended not to hear us. We could only sleep. We didn't even talk and played with our phones to disturb him."
"That's right. In the coffin class, the teacher said that whoever is the most serious will be killed and used as a teaching aid. If I don't sleep, won't I become a corpse?"
"There was also the cremation technique in the burial class. The teacher even forced us to throw ourselves into the furnace for cremation. I was alive and well, but I cremated myself in the last class. Is this reasonable?"
"The service ceremony class was full of stinking corpses, and the teacher asked us to laugh while carrying coffins. People are dead, but they are laughing instead of crying. If I were a corpse, I would be so angry that I would pretend to be a corpse."
Xiang Liangyu: “…”
You're wrongly blaming the players. It's not that they don't want to commit suicide, it's that they don't dare to do so. The risk factor of taking a class is so high, you must be really lucky.
The counselor was furious: "If you can't even face this little difficulty, how are you going to graduate and earn 30,000 yuan a day? The bonus of this major falling on your heads is like gold falling into the toilet, foie gras with canned herring, a pile of shit!"
Player: “…”
I've never seen you curse like this.
Xiang Liangyu tried hard to hold back her laughter, but she was sitting on the edge of the second row. The instructor saw her and pointed at her and scolded her: "Why are you laughing? Your attendance rate is only a little better. You don't know anything when asked in class. What are you doing here? You are not even as good as them!"
Xiang Liangyu: “… ”
The instructor said: "Everyone, clean up all the empty classrooms on the fourth floor before class this afternoon! If I see any garbage, everyone will write a 30,000-word self-criticism!"
After saying that, the counselor left angrily.
This cleaning is probably a side quest for the players. Xiang Liangyu wanted to leave directly, but Bai Zhizi pulled her into the middle of their team and said mysteriously, "My brother found a strange place yesterday. We want to take a look while we are cleaning. We need your help."
The three of them looked at Xiang Liangyu in unison. She was puzzled: "Where is it?"
Bai Zhizi: "We found a very strange classroom. My brother's children said there is something we are looking for in it."
Xiang Liangyu hesitated and asked, "Child...?"
Bai Chuncao held her hand on her chest: "Bunny, my daughter."
Xiang Liangyu looked at the bear doll, was silent for a second, and then greeted her enthusiastically: "Hello, Bunny. I have never heard of this classroom here, and it is a locked classroom. How do you get in?"
Zida: "This requires your help."
Xiang Liangyu agreed, and the four of them formed a team. They took four rags from the main group and planned to sneak away, but they ran into Wu Yun and others head-on.
Di He walked in the middle of the team, with a thin silk scarf around his neck in the hot summer, and his face was pale.
Xiang Liangyu looked away calmly.
The two teams nodded to each other as a greeting. Wu Yun walked towards Xiang Liangyu with a strange smile on his face. Bai Zhizi put her hand on Xiang Liangyu's shoulder and said in a warning tone: "Sorry, she is in the same group with us."
Yun Panshan was wearing a black ear-hook headset. He walked past Wu Yun and stood in front of Xiang Liangyu, extending his hand: "Hello, my name is Yun Panshan."
Xiang Liangyu smiled but didn't shake his hand: "Hello, my name is Xiang Liangyu."
Bai Zhizi reached out and held his hand: "Hello, Bai Zhizi."
The two separated immediately after the collision, and the teams passed each other and went in different directions with their own thoughts.
When passing by Xiang Liangyu, Di He felt a dull pain in his neck. He subconsciously reached out and touched his neck. The pain came instantly, and he turned to look at her back.
Xiang Liangyu dresses differently every day, but the style is always Gothic. Today she is wearing a light pink short skirt with a velvet rope tied at the back of her waist, which sways slightly when she walks.
Di He retracted his gaze, suppressed his uneasiness and followed the team.
Xiang Liangyu felt the lump in the palm of his hand, and put the stolen items into his pocket while thinking.
The classroom that Bai Chuncao was referring to was in the corner of the fourth floor, diagonally opposite the toilet.
The water pipe in the toilet burst yesterday, and the water splashed on the wall, leaving dark marks. The ground was littered with dirty footprints, going back and forth, and no one cleaned it up.
As soon as Xiang Liangyu saw classroom 425, she knew it. Fang Zi had shown her the incident log of the Funeral College. It seemed that someone had died in this classroom and it had been sealed off a long time ago.
The glass on the front and back doors was painted black, so it was impossible to see clearly what was going on in the classroom.
Xiang Liangyu was naturally happy to help them, but she tried the front and back doors for a while and couldn't open them at all.
Di He's gloves are very useful. Not only can they steal anything, but unlocking locks is also a piece of cake. However, Xiang Liangyu can't even turn a lock.
As far as she knew, all classroom doors were equipped with keys. If they were locked from the outside, they should be easy to open. However, not only could she not open it, she couldn't even shake the door.
Xiang Liangyu said: "This door is locked from the inside, and there is a heavy object blocking the door. Whoever is stronger can kick it open."
Qi Da was surprised and said, "Kick it open? Then everyone will know what we are doing, and the class next door is still in session, we will be caught."
Bai Chuncao walked to the door and knocked gently, then took out the bear doll from the bear's pocket and gently placed it on the ground: "Baby, come in and take a look."
Xiang Liangyu: “…”
The button-eyed bear doll suddenly turned into a thin piece of paper, fell to the ground, and twisted inwards little by little.
The people outside didn't have to wait long before the bear doll flew out from the crack in the door, turned into a doll and grabbed Bai Chuncao's trouser leg.
Bai Zhizi's face changed.
Bai Chuncao held it to comfort it for a moment, then put it in her pocket: "She said that there were people inside, and what was blocking the door were not people, but tables and chairs."
[Good news! Congratulations to the players for exploring the important scene 425 classroom! Some information about Takishui Vocational and Technical College has been released! ]
【As a well-known college in China and even in the world, Longzhi Vocational and Technical College has always had a 100% employment rate in its popular majors of funeral services and management.】
[But there are strange rules in the academy that restrict the activities of freshmen. Whenever seniors want to communicate with freshmen, they will be interrupted by a natural phenomenon. ]
[All the seniors who violated the rules disappeared or died inexplicably, until the principal announced the curriculum adjustment and the dormitory lights-out time was changed to 7pm.]
[The college was shrouded in an indescribable fear. No matter whether they were freshmen or seniors, they no longer talked to each other, but the deaths seemed to continue. More and more seniors died in class, in the dormitory, or in some corner of the school.]
[Until all the old students died, the new students became old students, and another batch of new students entered the college. ]
[The surviving senior student left a message to the freshmen: Please break the rules and rescue the innocent people trapped in the darkness. ]
Bai Zhizi and the other two remained silent, while Xiang Liangyu continued his research in front of the door.
The information is open to all players and NPCs, but the players don't know it, and Xiang Liangyu will not reveal that he can hear it.
She pushed the door and could feel it shaking. She looked more closely and found that it was not the door that was shaking, but the door frame.
Xiang Liangyu moved closer to the door frame. The crack was big enough for her to see the scene inside. The messy table legs blocked the door, limiting her vision. She could only see a dark mass above her.
"What are you doing?" An angry figure appeared behind him.
Xiang Liangyu turned around and saw the counselor standing at the door of the toilet, his face livid: "I asked you to clean up! You've come here to clean up? Is this a place you can come to?"
Qi Da muttered, "You are here too."
Xiang Liangyu glanced at the toilet and thought, this is right opposite the toilet, so everyone who comes here has to pass by this.
