Chapter 14: No. 7 Middle School (14)

The sun outside the office building was particularly bright today, and the golden light added a bit of warmth to the winter weather.

As Bai You and Lin Sheng walked to the teaching building, she lowered her eyes and thought about the bloody picture, always feeling that there seemed to be something she had not connected to.

“Ding-ling-ling…”

At the moment the bell rang, a cold wind blew, and a feeling of weightlessness suddenly came, and an unknown blackness blocked her vision.

Bai You was forced to be absent-minded for a while.

Until the mechanical sound rang in her ears, she was a little sober and rubbed her eyebrows.

Bai You glanced around. The window glass of the teaching building was dyed golden by the sun, and the voice of “Hello, teacher” came from far away in the building, peaceful and harmonious.

There was nothing unusual about the environment around her, except… Lin Sheng, who had been following her, was gone.

Is this a new exam question?

Bai You didn’t figure it out for the time being, so she decided to follow the plot. She went up to the sixth floor of the teaching building and pushed open the door of Class A of Senior 3.

The class was interrupted and the air became quiet instantly.

When all the students in the class cast their eyes at her, Bai You’s eyes roughly swept over their faces, and paused slightly when she saw the familiar faces in the last row.

It was Lin Sheng.

She glanced to the side.

She saw Ruan Niannian and Qi Ming one by one.

“Lin Songyue, what’s wrong? Why don’t you come in while standing there?”

The physics teacher on the podium held his glasses and smiled at her, “The teacher has no objection if you want to stand there to listen to the class, but you have to be considerate of the classmates in the class. The door is open, you see they are all so cold that their noses are about to run, can you bear it?”

When the physics teacher said this, there was a faint laughter in the class, and the dull atmosphere of the physics class was instantly broken and became lively.

Bai You retracted his gaze and spoke calmly.

“Isn’t there a term called… poor students?”

The class was quiet for a moment.

Then there was a burst of laughter.

Even the physics teacher couldn’t help laughing. In order to maintain his serious image, he coughed twice, “Okay, come in and attend class.”

Bai You sat back in her seat. The classmates behind her were so happy that they poked her arm when the physics teacher turned around to write in chalk.

“You are really something, poor student. The jokes I read yesterday were not as funny as yours.”

It was obviously very difficult to whisper under the teacher’s nose. Bai You replied perfunctorily. The classmate also knew what to do and didn’t harass her anymore. During the big break, he ran over with several female classmates and gathered in front of her desk.

“Hurry, hurry, I want to read the latest chapter. I was so anxious when I got stuck there yesterday.”

“I want to read it too, hehe!”

Bai You was slightly stunned when he heard this. After pausing for two seconds, he took out the notebook that Lin Songyue used to write novels from his school bag and handed it to the female classmate wearing glasses.

Several female classmates held the notebooks and returned to their seats, sitting in a circle and reading with relish. Bai You looked through their heads and looked at Lin Sheng in the last row.

He, Ruan Niannian and a few others were playing around. When he accidentally met Bai You’s gaze, his face suddenly turned red and he sat back in his seat and pretended to be an ostrich.

… He was indeed not Lin Sheng.

Or, the people in the class did not seem to be as difficult to get along with as she imagined. At present, they were just a group of very normal and ordinary high school students.

But according to their previous speculation, the people in the class should be isolating Lin Songyue and even speaking ill of her. And how could Lin Songyue tell such a classmate about such a private matter as writing novels? I’m afraid she will only be humiliated by them.

So… There must be something wrong here.

Is it a superficial phenomenon they pretended to be?

Bai You retracted his gaze and looked closer. Several female classmates had finished reading the update and were discussing the plot enthusiastically.

“Role playing, princess and knight, I’m so good!”

“Songyue is so good at writing! The tension between the characters is amazing.”

“Speaking of which, this is the program that Songyue has been preparing for a long time this year, right? What a pity, why can’t we hold a theme party this year.”

“Ah? We can’t hold it this year? We have been preparing for a long time, it’s impossible.”

“It’s written on the small blackboard outside the teacher’s office. It was written yesterday, saying that this year’s New Year’s Eve party will be held by each class.”

“That’s too boring… I still want to see more beautiful sisters.”

“…”

Bai You lowered his eyes.

New Year’s Eve party…?

They thought that the New Year’s Eve party was just the trigger for the loss of money, but they didn’t expect that there was such information about Lin Songyue.

No wonder she found the mask in Lin Songyue’s school bag before, and thought it was her own unique hobby, but she didn’t expect it was because of the New Year’s Eve party program.

Bai You opened the schoolbag and flipped through it carefully. She found a lot of not-so-fine decorations in it, such as brooches, leg rings, etc. There were traces of glue at the bonding place, and it seemed that she made them herself.

Obviously, she was looking forward to this New Year’s Eve party.

The class bell rang and the big break ended.

[End of the first question of the second round]

[Time to unlock the second question: 3:30 pm]

Bai You had a very strange question.

If this was an exam, she didn’t seem to hear the sound of the exam starting from the beginning, but ended the exam inexplicably.

Moreover, she didn’t feel that she was in any predicament, but was just following the plot normally.

Although this plot looks… very abnormal.

At 3:30 pm, Bai You waited for a while deliberately, but did not hear the mechanical sound that prompted the start of the exam.

Only the female classmate excitedly told her that a new restaurant had opened in the cafeteria, how delicious it was, and invited her to eat together after school in the afternoon.

The phone on the table suddenly lit up.

Bai You took out her phone, and looking at the familiar-looking phone, she instantly figured out the reason.

Also, she figured out the cause of all the problems.

She opened the phone according to the password, and there was only one new message in the text message.

[Good boy, wait at the door after the evening self-study today, don’t run around, I will pick you up and celebrate your birthday]

The note is [Dad]

Celebrate your birthday…

But that person seems to never be able to do it.

Bai You’s fingertips stagnated slightly, and finally slowly typed a word, [OK]

After returning from dinner with the female classmate in the afternoon, Bai You ran into Lin Sheng.

Or should it be the role he played – Zhao Xiangwen.

Zhao Xiangwen was pushed over by several boys. His face was flushed. He didn’t even dare to look at Bai You’s eyes. He stared at the floor and stammered.

… He knew what was going on at a glance.

But Bai You was still very dedicated and pretended not to understand, “Excuse me, is there anything I can do for you?”

Zhao Xiangwen hesitated, his face was so hot that steam came out, and he couldn’t say anything.

“I, classmate Lin,…”

Bai You smiled, “Sorry, I have to rush to finish my homework now. It’s very urgent. Can we talk tomorrow if you have anything to say?”

“Oh, okay, okay!”

Zhao Xiangwen nodded quickly as if relieved.

Several boys behind him were making a fuss and wanted to say something, but Bai You ignored them, bypassed them, and went back to the class.

By 9:50 in the evening, the system said that the second exam time was over.

The evening self-study class was over, and the students left the class one after another, and they did not show any abnormality.

Several female classmates patted her on the shoulder and told her to remember to update, and then they left the classroom together.

The classroom was empty, with only Bai You sitting at the table.

No verbal violence, no bullying, friendly classmates, smooth schedule, happy and relaxed mood.

A perfect day.

But all this is too normal.

So normal… just like a fantasy.

Bai You sighed.

She stood up from her seat and walked towards the toilet.

It was still the familiar mirror, but it was clean, without any dirt, and clearly reflected her appearance.

“Bang!”

The mirror shattered.

The fragments fell to the floor, making a sharp and piercing sound.

The air around him suddenly became cold.

A thick, uncomfortable, oppressive breath came over him, covering his whole body.

Bai You looked up and looked out the window.

A red moon hangs in the window frame, the scarlet light spreads, entangled with the dark clouds, forming a bloodthirsty endgame.

And the mechanical prompt sound finally sounded.

[The third exam has begun]

[Next, please “play” your role happily~]
