Chapter 11: Seventh Middle School (11)

The staff lounge was small, and Lin Sheng could see all the furnishings at a glance. There was no one else in it, which meant… There was only Bai You and this monster in the room just now.

So, the answer was obvious.

Lin Sheng was silent for a moment.

He turned his eyes back to Bai You. He glanced at her slender, white and tender hands, which looked weak at first glance. They were clean without a trace of dirt. He swallowed hard to calm down.

Then he looked up and looked at her pure and flawless snow-blue eyes. Her beautiful eyes followed his inquiring gaze and blinked gently, looking innocent and kind.

“What’s wrong?”

“…”

Lin Sheng’s eyes were mixed with shock, suspicion, disbelief and other complex emotions.

After struggling for several seconds, he pointed at the pool of rotten meat and asked carefully.

“You did this?”

Bai You nodded, her silver-gray hair swaying lightly, shining with a cold luster in the rising golden sunlight.

Seeing that Lin Sheng seemed to be confused, she explained what happened.

“I was eating inside, he broke in and locked the door, and wanted to attack me, but I was too weak and killed him.”

The implication.

He started it first, it’s none of my business.

Lin Sheng: “…”

Bravo.

Awesome.

After listening to Bai You’s explanation of what happened, Lin Sheng looked at Bai You with a little more shock and some indescribable complex emotions.

He really didn’t expect that the girl in front of him, who looked thin and weak, at most 18 or 19 years old, could kill such a monster alone without changing his expression. Even he felt nauseous watching from a distance, not to mention that he had to fight the monster 1v1.

Even if the three of them came together, their first reaction would be to run away quickly. How could they fight a monster head-on?

Lin Sheng paused for a moment and asked, “Did you just go through the first test?”

Bai You knew what he meant and hummed.

“Yes, you are right. This is the content of my test. The time limit is five minutes.”

“Hiss,” Lin Sheng breathed in surprise. “Why is your test content so perverted? Mine just asked me to stay in the corner over there and not move. The time limit is also five minutes.”

That’s why he ran to the door and planned to call her as soon as it was over.

This corresponds to what he did.

However, Bai You keenly noticed that there was a special message in Lin Sheng’s words, and pointed it out and asked: “You mean, your exam content, there are questions?”

“Yes, it was the question that the mechanical voice gave, and I was scored at the end, saying that I got 80 points.”

Lin Sheng thought of something, and asked suspiciously: “Your exam doesn’t have any exam questions, right?”

Bai You: “…”

The dog system is targeting her again.

This sudden silence is very telling, Lin Sheng did not continue to ask, but was curious about another thing.

“If there is no exam question, how do you calculate your score? How many points did you get this time?”

“……!”

Bai You said nothing, closed the door of the lounge, turned around and walked towards the teaching area.

Lin Sheng stayed there confused, not understanding what was going on, and hurriedly chased after her, following behind her, still thinking about the question just now, muttering in a low voice.

“You killed the monster directly this time. You’re so awesome. I’ll give you 90 points at least, if not full marks…”

“…Are you free?”

“Ah?”

“It seems so. We are going to explore the plot. We don’t know when the next exam will come. There is nothing else to do during this period.”

Lin Sheng thought for a while and said so.

“So now you have it.”

Bai You stopped and looked at him with his eyelids raised. His speech was fast but clear.

“The body in the lounge belongs to Vice Principal Quan Hongsheng. According to the clues, he may have threatened Lin Songyue with some conditions. There is a special relationship between the two.”

“Now, go to the Vice Principal’s office to investigate Quan Hongsheng’s personal information.”

Lin Sheng thought of the rotten body lying in the lounge, and felt that the principal’s office must not be a good place. He asked carefully.

“Can I choose not to go?”

“Of course.”

“?!”

Agreed so easily?

Lin Sheng was stunned. He just wanted to shy away from the offer, but he had already agreed in his heart.

After all, this was related to the plot, and it was also related to Lin Songyue, so it was very important.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at Bai You in confusion, waiting for her next words.

Sure enough, two seconds later, her cold voice sounded, with a bit of natural coldness, indifferent and distant.

“Then shut up.”

“…”

Lin Sheng suddenly understood.

Understood why she turned around and left, and said such a long paragraph to send him away.

It turned out that she thought he talked too much.

Oh, but he didn’t talk too much with everyone.

–

Bai You still came to the vice-principal’s office as she said.

Even if Lin Sheng agreed to let him come alone, she would still come in to look for clues, so she just wanted him to be quiet for a while.

The office building has four floors in total. The two did not know which floor the vice-principal’s office was on, so they could only look for it floor by floor.

The first floor is the printing area and some equipment area, and the second floor is the office of each dean and leader.

Although the office building is not as crowded as the teaching building, there are still many teachers and students. Fortunately, it is not class time yet, and there are many students running back and forth with printed pages, so the two are not very conspicuous.

Taking advantage of no one’s attention, they arrived at the third floor, and the students and teachers disappeared, and there was no one in the empty corridor.

Bai You walked along the corridor and saw a room with a sign of [Vice-Principal’s Office].

Found it.

But Lin Sheng tried to turn the door, but it was locked and could not be opened.

“What should we do now? The key won’t be on the body.”

“It should be.”

Bai You just used a broom to search Quan Hongsheng’s shirt pocket, but didn’t search it thoroughly. It’s most likely in his trouser pocket.

But… if she didn’t kill him, but ran away in another way, she wouldn’t be able to get the key.

So, what is hidden in this room?

Lin Sheng felt sick when he thought about trying to get the key from the body, but he thought that such a thing must not be done by a girl, so he volunteered, “Then, you wait here, I’ll go find the key.”

“No need.”

The girl next to him responded lightly, then took a black hairpin from her hair, turned it twice with her white fingertips to make an arc, then inserted it into the door lock and turned it gently.

“Click.”

The door opened.

Lin Sheng: “?”

No.

Why do you look so skilled?

Bai You pushed the door open.

Bright light shines from the windowsill, and the warm sun shines on the corner of the window, casting a halo on the frosted glass.

The room is arranged in a normal office, with a cold black desk and chair against the window, and a potted green ivy growing vigorously next to the piles of documents on the desk.

Although the man has become so corrupt, the place he stays is still so bright and clean.

It’s really ironic.

The documents on the desk are just ordinary cases. Bai You took a quick look and put them down, continuing to search for information.

There are hundreds of books on the bookshelf, most of which are covered with dust. Obviously, the owners of the books don’t use them.

Bai You looked around and suddenly found that a few books were clean and dust-free. She immediately pulled the books out.

The books blocked a half-sized metal box with several small locks on it.

Bai You used the hairpin to open the locked box. Sure enough, there were many things locked inside, most of which were various transaction records of embezzlement and bribery.

Bai You knew that he was not a good person because he could do such a thing to an ordinary student. So she was not surprised to see these things and put them aside.

A piece of paper at the bottom of the box caught her attention.

This paper was obviously very old. The paper was thin and yellowed. There was a messy red pattern on it. It should be drawn with blood and dried black.

The pattern was so sloppy that it was hard to tell what was drawn. It was like a mentally illiterate person scribbling randomly, one stroke left and one stroke right, without any rules.

But there were a few lines of messy words next to it. The handwriting was as sloppy as the pattern. It was barely recognizable, but some of the words were covered by blood.

【XX will XX the world again】

【And I will be your only and most loyal believer】

Lin Sheng stood by and looked left and right but couldn’t figure out what the pattern was. He glanced at the word selection question next to it and felt even more confused. He complained.

“It’s the riddle man again.”

He raised his head from the paper and looked at Bai You.

“I’ve looked in other places and found nothing special. Do you have any other ideas for this question? What you said is like a cult.”

Bai You pinched the thin paper and subconsciously thought of a person.

The pale body without temperature, the eyes turned from black to dark red, and even made Lin Sheng forget his existence.

Could the person referred to in this sentence be him?

“No, I don’t understand it either.”

Bai You folded the paper and put it away.

“Since there is nothing here, let’s leave here. Class is about to start.”

Lin Sheng smiled, “You won’t take this as reality, right? We are not real students. Why do we have to go to class? Besides, there are only more than three hours before the end of the dungeon. Isn’t it a waste of time to go to class with that group of NPCs?”

Bai You glanced at him.

“Haven’t you noticed yet?”

“Hmm? What did you notice?”

“The dungeon time on the ID card has been paused.”

Lin Sheng: “?!”

Is there such a thing?

He quickly took out his ID card and saw the small words behind the dungeon time limit.

[Dungeon remaining time: 4 hours (paused in special plot)]

“Ah?”

“So, we are not going to take a day class in the dungeon? I remember that they get out of school at almost 10 o’clock in the evening.”

“Will there be any impact if I don’t go to class?”

“Of course there is no impact.”

Bai You said as he walked out the door, and calmly added, “I remember a few players whose characters were broken in the role-playing dungeon, but they were just stabbed dozens of times by the rampaging NPC, or were dismembered by the NPC.”

Lin Sheng: “?”

You call this just that?
