Chapter 15 No. 7 Middle School (15)

“I remember I just passed by a chemistry lab when I came here. How about I help you make it symmetrical?”

After saying this, Bai You successfully received Lin Xiaosheng’s horrified expression as if he was looking at a monster. He even shrank and took a step back.

“…”

Bai You blinked and suddenly smiled, “I’m kidding.”

Lin Sheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

It was a joke indeed.

She didn’t look like the kind of perverted demon who would abuse others without blinking an eye. How could she do such a thing?

He relaxed his body and raised his hand, which was still dripping with black blood. “So do you have a solution? Although I can’t feel the pain, it’s too creepy to see it like this.”

“No.”

Bai You was very straightforward. After thinking about it, she came up with another roundabout solution. “But if you just don’t want to see it…”

She took out a pair of white gloves from her pocket and shook them in front of him. “How about it?”

“…”

Adhering to the principle that it’s better to have something than nothing, Lin Sheng gritted his teeth and took the gloves and put them on. He silently said in his heart, out of sight, out of mind!

Without seeing it, the psychological fear is indeed much less, but the gloves are tightly tied on the fingers, which is a bit uncomfortable.

“It seems a little small…”

“After all, it’s a women’s style, so just make do with it.” Bai You retracted her hand and walked towards the stairs.

These pairs of gloves were also found by her in Lin Songyue’s school bag. She thought they might be useful so she put them on.

Lin Sheng put on his gloves, trotted along with Bai You, and looked at the girl walking quietly behind her. He kept turning his eyes back, and after careful comparison, he found no difference.

They were exactly the same.

“There is a question I’m curious about.”

Lin Sheng asked hesitantly: “Well… don’t tell me that this is your twin sister who came in to play games together?”

Bai You glanced at him, but didn’t answer him. Instead, he asked a question.

“Do you know what kind of people die first in horror stories?”

Lin Sheng didn’t react to her brain circuit, and subconsciously replied: “Uh… running around?”

“That’s right.”

Bai You smiled slightly.

“But if I were a ghost, I would definitely kill the one who gossiped the most first.”

“…”

It’s just a joke!

Why threaten him?

But actually, when Lin Sheng and the girl were sitting in a row on the flower bed in the afternoon, he had roughly guessed who this girl who looked exactly like Bai You was. He asked Bai You just to confirm it.

However, didn’t Bai You say that her identity was Lin Songyue? Why did Lin Songyue exist, and appear in her image?

This made Lin Sheng very confused.

There are a total of two Lin Songyues in the exam scene and the copy, in different scenes, and the Lin Songyue in front of him only exists in the exam scene.

Or are there originally two Lin Songyues, communicating with each other in the two scenes?

More importantly——

This Lin Songyue didn’t seem to be surprised by Bai You’s existence?

This was very strange.

For a person who was exactly the same as himself and had the same identity, he didn’t show any fear.

Lin Sheng looked down and saw Lin Songyue quietly following behind Bai You, not saying a word along the way, holding Bai You’s clothes with his hand lightly and not heavily, following him step by step.

Not only was he not afraid, but he seemed to have an almost attached attitude?

But since Bai You didn’t want to reveal this and it had nothing to do with the mission plot, Lin Sheng didn’t dwell on it.

He followed Bai You downstairs and curiously asked about the destination.

“Where are we going?”

“Chemistry lab.”

Lin Sheng: “……?”

You’re not serious, are you? !

He was really just joking! !

The teaching building and the laboratory building were not far away, but the process of going downstairs was very bumpy.

Not only did the character played by the player become a monster, but the entire teaching building began to twist and deform, with gaps everywhere, as if it was about to be melted by the red moon outside.

Several times, Lin Sheng almost stepped on empty air.

After finally arriving at the chemical lab, after Bai You pried open the door, Lin Sheng waited at the door in fear and didn’t dare to go in.

But after waiting for about five minutes, Bai You came out and didn’t mention what he said before, which made him feel a little relieved.

“What did you do in there?”

“Nothing, just took some props.”

Taking props in a chemical lab?

Why does it sound so scary? Lin Sheng subconsciously diverged from his thoughts. It couldn’t be a killer like sulfuric acid.

After getting what she needed, Bai You was in a good mood. When she left, she glanced at Lin Sheng’s hand with a slightly regretful tone.

“Are you really not going to consider it again? I have good skills. I guarantee that your hands will be perfectly symmetrical.”

“…Thank you, but no need.”

Lin Sheng swallowed his saliva, coughed twice, looked at the melting teaching building, and changed the subject, “How long will this exam take to end?”

“About 12 o’clock.”

Bai You also guessed. After all, the name of the exam is the Christmas Eve exam, and the deadline is likely to be 12 o’clock.

She looked up at Lin Sheng, “What is your mission?”

Lin Sheng was stunned for a moment, then he remembered the mission of the identity card, and quickly took it out to take a look.

[Current player exploration degree: 76%]

[Difficult task unlocked: Survive the “Christmas Eve” exam]

Lin Sheng looked up and was about to tell Bai You, but his arm was suddenly pulled and he fell forward two steps.

Before he could react, he heard a calm sentence in his ear, “Run.”

The voice was Bai You’s. After she reminded him, Lin Sheng didn’t hesitate at all and ran away.

After running for a distance, he looked back panting. There was a pool of black unknown liquid where he was originally, which seemed to be corroding the ground, and he could hear a sizzling sound.

There were several shadows swaying in the teaching building in the distance. In the scarlet light, it could be distinguished that they were the monsters transformed from the players locked in the class.

And it looked like it was in a complete form, without any human features, and was chasing in their direction.

Damn.

Lin Sheng was scared.

If Bai You hadn’t reacted quickly and pulled him, he would have turned into a puddle of mud. After all, he didn’t have the confidence that his body could be harder than cement.

Although this was just a game, even if he was seriously injured in the game and logged off, he would be fine, but the pain of being injured in the dungeon was real and there was no escape at all.

The pain of being corroded to the bones…

Well, forget it, he didn’t want to try.

–

The lecture hall was empty and quiet at night.

Rows of empty seats, the red curtain drawn on the stage, and the overly quiet and oppressive atmosphere made the arrivals dare not speak loudly.

“What are we doing here?”

Lin Sheng watched Bai You busying himself backstage, pouring bags of white powder into the water, and was completely confused.

Is this what she took from the chemistry lab, but what’s the use of it?

Bai You didn’t answer the question, but asked him in a lazy voice.

“What do you think is the difficulty of this exam?”

Lin Sheng thought about it carefully.

“If the players follow the questions completely, they will become the characters they play, and finally become monsters.”

Because no player will break the rules in an unknown situation at the beginning, this should be a first sight kill, which is a difficult point to think of.

“Then are they dead?”

“What?”

Lin Sheng was stunned for a moment, and repeated her words in her mind.

Bai You can ask this question, obviously already has a definite answer, so what she means is-

Those players who turned into monsters are not dead? !

But soon, another terrible idea came to mind.

Since the players who turned into monsters are not considered dead, why is the difficult task written as [Survive the “Christmas Eve” exam]?

In this case, wouldn’t every player be able to pass the level easily? So this difficult task, is it really that simple…?

“Bang!”

“Bang, bang, bang!”

The sound of banging against the door suddenly sounded, one after another, echoing in the lecture hall.

Lin Sheng could only be thankful that the door of the lecture hall was relatively thick and would not be corroded or knocked open in a short time.

He retracted his gaze from the door and was about to ask Bai You what to do next when he saw such a scene.

He was a little dazed for a moment.

Bai You on the stage was slowly putting on gloves, his thin white knuckles were bent, and under the cold metal mask, his snow-blue eyes looked at Lin Songyue gently and calmly.

Then.

She squatted on one knee and stretched out her hand to the girl under the stage.

The red moon bloomed in the window pane, blood and thick fog intertwined, and the monster’s roar was sharp and piercing, as if it would tear the room apart in the next second.

But at this moment——

The knight who had fought through all the difficulties together to the present moment seemed to be unheard, pious and irreplaceable, and gave all his faith and honor to the person he wanted to protect.

“Come on, my princess.”
