MTL - Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game-Chapter 22 Who is the murderer (3)
The note found in Ming Hui's notebook, the words on it were sharp and mean, making it hard not to think about it.
Was Zhou Xiuxiu's death caused by Ming Hui?
Is Ming Hui really a lunatic or a devil as written on the note? If the facts were quite the opposite, who would accuse her so vitriolicly?
So what did Ming Hui do wrong that someone would write a note to accuse her? Who wrote this note?
All of a sudden, problems flooded in.
Xia Zhiyi met Jing Ruyu's eyes in silence.
The puzzle set up by the New World and the Ghost King is indeed not simple.
"bell-"
The class bell rang again.
The students who were still making noise obediently returned to their seats and waited for the teacher to come to class, even the players were no exception.
Xia Zhiyi conveniently took Minghui's notebook with the note in it back to her place.
This is the last class in the afternoon, and the class teacher, a middle-aged woman with short hair, came to class.
To the players' surprise, the new world actually gave them a chemistry lesson.
Looking at the chemical formulas on the whole page, Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu were deeply speechless as tablemates.
And because the two of them were sitting in the front row, they were completely disqualified from whispering in class, so they had to ask someone to borrow a pen and paper to chat on paper.
Xia Zhiyi: No way, New World actually let us take chemistry class? ? ?
Xia Zhiyi: There won't be any clues here, will there?
Jing Ruyu: Probably not, it’s probably just to let us have an immersive experience
Jing Ruyu: Even if there is, you can ignore it
Jing Ruyu: Because we don’t understand
Xia Zhiyi: That makes sense
What you don’t understand is what you don’t understand, and no matter how much time you put in what you don’t understand, it’s a waste of time.
For example, in mathematics, can a dog jump over a wall in a hurry, but can a person solve a math problem in a hurry? !
Therefore, rather than expending a lot of energy in front of things for which there is no corresponding knowledge reserve, it is better to collect all other clues first, time is precious, and a second cannot be wasted.
So they were forced by the new world to listen to a chemistry class.
It's boring and unfamiliar - working for so many years, and not a related major, which office worker still remembers this!
A class lasted forty-five minutes. Fortunately, the head teacher didn't intend to use it all for the lecture. In the remaining five minutes, she also said something else.
"For the newly transferred students, your dormitory has been arranged. Just go back to the dormitory after school and report your name to the dormitory auntie. They will take you to the dormitory.
"Students, please get along well with new classmates."
"Okay—" the students said in unison.
After saying this, the head teacher turned to look at Sun Jun and said, "Sun Jun, the commuter card will be approved tomorrow, remember to come to my office tomorrow to get it."
Sun Jun wants to go to school?
Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu looked back at Sun Jun.
I saw Sun Jun showing an impeccable smile, and said to the teacher: "Okay, I understand, thank you teacher."
Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu heard the girl at the table next to them sigh with emotion, "So handsome..."
Two people: "..."
They looked away.
Xia Zhiyi stared at the notebook in front of her.
Jing Ruyu was silent for a moment, slowly raised her hand, and looked at the head teacher calmly: "Teacher, when will the representatives of the Chinese class and the math class come to school?"
The other four players looked at her one after another.
Is this something that can be asked directly? ?
When she mentioned it, the homeroom teacher suddenly realized: "I'd have forgotten it if you didn't tell me.
"Listen well, everyone. Minghui is going to transfer schools. She probably won't come here in the future. Her things will be dealt with when she goes back to school. I will ask your Chinese teacher to choose a new one for the class representative."
As soon as these words came out, Jing Ruyu and Xia Zhiyi frowned.
Minghui is going to transfer schools?
Well, why did you change schools suddenly?
Because of guilt? Or because you know something?
A classmate helped them to ask the doubts in their hearts: "Why did Ming Hui suddenly transfer schools?"
"I don't know, I didn't hear her explain the reason," said the class teacher, "Okay, you don't have to be curious about such things, as long as you study hard, you can go anywhere.
"As for Zhou Xiuxiu, her parents called to say that she was not feeling well, so she had to continue to ask for leave.
"Squad leader, let's take charge of the work of the math class representative during this time. Thank you for your hard work."
"Also," the homeroom teacher specifically mentioned, "Xiuxiu is very unwell, and I don't want anyone to disturb her. If you want to visit her, just wait until she is better, and don't cause trouble for others."
Hearing this, Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu looked at each other in blank dismay.
That is to say, at this point in time, Zhou Xiuxiu hadn't fallen from the building yet, but she didn't want to see anyone. Obviously, they couldn't find her. After all, how to get out of school was a problem.
But then again, why did Minghui transfer schools? Does she really know anything?
"Zizi."
The broadcast in the classroom suddenly rang.
In the next second, a human voice came from inside: "This week, the political and educational office will check the dormitory. After the lights are turned off at night, please take a good rest in bed. Don't make loud noises, don't get out of bed to fight, don't leave the dormitory, don't Do anything that violates discipline, otherwise you will be punished.
"The broadcast is over."
The sound of the radio disappeared, and the impatient complaints in the class continued one after another.
"Ah, I have to check bed again..."
"Doesn't the political and religious department sleep?"
"annoying…"
Xia Zhiyi turned to look at Jing Ruyu: "This is probably a safety reminder for the mission NPC, right?"
Jing Ruyu nodded lightly: "Probably..."
As long as the ghost king does not appear, the school will be bright during the day, and there is nothing scary at all, but no one knows what will happen at night.
So far, they haven't seen any other ghosts except the ghost king. Could it be that the ghost king is the only ghost in this dungeon?
I'm afraid it's not that simple...
Soon, the get out of class bell rang and school was over.
The students took the books, took the backpacks, and checked the things to take away before leaving the classroom.
The small note found before the class made the players feel that they could continue to dig deeper in Ming Hui's seat, so after class, the few of them turned around and walked towards Ming Hui's seat tacitly.
But this time, the head teacher called out: "What are you guys doing? Go eat quickly."
Xia Zhiyi turned her head: "Teacher, we want to eat slowly."
"No," the class teacher's attitude was very firm, "No one can stay in the classroom after school, go to the cafeteria to eat quickly, and go back to the dormitory to take a shower and rest after eating, the Political and Educational Office will come to lock the door in a while."
"Lock the door?"
Xia Zhiyi was surprised.
"Then when will the door open?"
"Morning reading tomorrow." The head teacher said it as it should be.
"what?!"
"Ah, what, if you have something to take, take it quickly. The door is locked but it won't be opened until tomorrow. After you take it, go to eat quickly. If it's late, the cafeteria will be closed if there is no food."
The head teacher held the book in his arms, looked at them, thought about it, and couldn't help but give a few more words.
"You are new transfers, and you heard the broadcast just now, you must rest obediently at night, and don't make trouble for the teacher.
"Okay, go to the cafeteria to eat quickly, go quickly."
In the end, Xia Zhiyi was holding Minghui's notebook, and Jing Ruyu stood outside the door watching the two doors of the classroom being locked, with speechless expressions.
After a while.
Xia Zhiyi: "You don't want us to steal the keys at night, do you?"
Jing Ruyu folded her arms around her chest and comforted her objectively: "It's okay, we might not be able to come out at night."
Xia Zhiyi: "Oh, that's right..."
That is indeed something that the new world can do.
"Then let's go eat first, there is no food to eat at night!"
"it is good."
…
The sunset is on the west mountain, and the twilight is in harmony.
The cafeteria of this school looks no different from the high school cafeteria Xia Zhiyi imagined, and even the hands of the uncles and aunts who serve food are the same.
Xia Zhiyi: "..."
What an immersive experience.
Jing Ruyu raised her eyes and looked around.
Because the cafeteria has a time limit for eating, the students are eating quietly, and few people talk to each other, so it is useless for them to strike up a conversation.
Looks like there will be no gains here.
Thinking of this, she withdrew her gaze and picked up her chopsticks to eat.
Xia Zhiyi was eating obediently.
She needed to find clues and eat, so she didn't want to starve to death here!
At this moment, a pair of chopsticks put a braised chicken leg that she likes on her dinner plate.
She froze for a moment, then looked up at the calm and beautiful woman opposite.
This stewed chicken leg was the last one in the cafeteria. Unfortunately, she just stood behind and didn't get it, but her ex-girlfriend got it.
Now her ex-girlfriend is giving her chicken drumsticks again... So she still remembers what she likes to eat?
The movement of eating stopped, and she looked at the person in front of her hesitantly: "This..."
"Help each other," Jing Ruyu said calmly, "Teammates should."
Xia Zhiyi raised her eyebrows: "Thank you."
Then, without thinking about it, he directly gave her more than half of the braised pork that she liked very much, and piled up the shelf where she put the braised pork: "Help each other, I have chicken legs, enough to eat."
Jing Ruyu's gaze stayed on the braised pork for a while, and then he smiled slowly and said, "Thank you, I will eat it well."
Liu Xue who happened to be at the table and witnessed the whole process: "...?"
For some reason, she always felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was a bit delicate?
Could this be the friendship of teammates that belonged exclusively to the new world? ? ?
After eating, Liu Xue went back to the dormitory first.
Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu walked around the cafeteria and the playground - they didn't hear the sound of the ferry.
The ghost king had to answer the questions, and the ferry had to be found, otherwise, even if they got 200 points in the test, they would be useless.
Jing Ruyu glanced at her watch, and seeing that it was still early, she suggested, "Zhiyi, do you want to go to the roof of the teaching building?"
The scenes in the new world, of course, can be seen and searched.
Maybe, the clue or the customs clearance ferry is on it.
Xia Zhiyi has always believed her, and nodded without asking the reason: "Let's go!"
…
The teaching building of this school is very high, there is no elevator, and the stairs are all climbed on two legs.
When Xia Zhiyi climbed to the sixth floor, she was already panting heavily.
"Finally, here..."
She managed to catch her breath and then went to see Jing Ruyu, but the other party was so calm that she felt speechless.
"I'm almost exhausted, you can't even breathe..."
Jing Ruyu looked at the door leading to the rooftop, heard this sentence, and answered with a calm smile: "You know that my physical strength has always been better than yours."
After finishing speaking, the two of them looked into each other's eyes, and they were stunned for a moment, then quickly moved away from sight, and suddenly began to feel embarrassed.
It's not because looking at each other is embarrassing, but because thinking of some time in the past that used physical strength, and thinking that the two of them have broken up now, the embarrassment comes uninvited.
The light red peach smudged on the tips of her ears, Xia Zhiyi suddenly didn't know how to face Jing Ruyu.
"I'll see if I can open the door."
Jing Ruyu took the initiative to break the silence, and walked towards the door after speaking. After getting closer, she found a lock on the door—a broken lock.
"This door can be opened."
Xia Zhiyi immediately cared and said, "Be careful, in case there is something behind the door..."
"Don't come up first."
Jing Ruyu motioned her to find a safe place, and took off the lock after she stood up, holding the door latch, and pushed it open cautiously, watching the white light squeezed into the crack of the door to tear it apart little by little—
It's empty.
Jing Ruyu leaned out, looked left and right, it was still empty, there was nothing on the roof.
She took out the paper stuffed in the pocket of her trousers. It was a note they talked about in class. She planned to throw it away, but she forgot it. Now it just happens to be available.
Knead it into a ball and throw it out—
Well, there is no monster that would rush out and bite when it sees something in the imagination.
Xia Zhiyi saw Jing Ruyu walking out, and immediately followed.
Stepping onto the roof, a gust of cool wind blows head-on, stirring the black hair of the two of them.
Jing Ruyu picked up the ball of paper and looked around the four corners of the large rooftop, but found nothing.
"I didn't hear the sound of water."
Xia Zhiyi looked around and said, "Maybe it's a time-limited trigger again? Let's ask those students later, anyway, New World will definitely not hide clues in the sky."
After going through a novice dungeon, she can be considered to have figured out the new world.
As Jing Ruyu said at the beginning, this place is cruel and benevolent, it doesn't care about the lives of players, but it doesn't maliciously bury clues so that players can't find them.
It can even allow players to instigate NPCs to resist the ghost king, obviously having a high degree of freedom to break through.
At this time, she found that Jing Ruyu was looking into the distance without moving.
She walked up curiously: "What are you looking at?"
Jing Ruyu pointed in the direction of the school gate.
"There's no fog there."
Unlike the novice dungeon, this time the white mist did not indifferently surround the school.
From the school gate to the two roads leading to nowhere, the building is obviously clearer than other places, as if there is a natural barrier to keep out the terrifying white mist, waiting for them to explore the plot.
The scene this time is obviously not limited to the school.
"Where does that lead?" Xia Zhiyi looked in that direction and muttered to himself, "Could it be Zhou Xiuxiu's and Ming Hui's family?"
"It's possible, it seems that we have to find a chance to go out."
Jing Ruyu glanced at the time, then at the gradually darkening sky.
"It's getting late, let's go back to the dormitory first."
Xia Zhiyi should be fine.
The two turned around, and when they looked up, they saw Ghost King Zhou Xiuxiu standing at the exit of the rooftop.
Sticky black blood wrapped the entire roof exit, like a hunting spider web, and the slender black hair squirmed in the blood, like a pulse beating under the flesh.
Under the sky far away, Zhou Xiuxiu just stood above them quietly and looked at them, with an indifferent expression, like a high-ranking judge.
The two immediately took two steps back, looking wary.
Zhou Xiuxiu suddenly smiled.
"You guys are so timid."
Xia Zhiyi: "..."
Jing Ruyu: "..."
When the king of ghosts says that others are timid, it is hard-hearted.
The two sides faced each other silently for a moment, and neither of them moved.
Seeing that Zhou Xiuxiu was not willing to do anything, Xia Zhiyi took the initiative to speak: "I heard from your classmate that you are good at mathematics and very enthusiastic. If you have any questions, you will definitely answer them. Then can I ask you a question?" ?”
Zhou Xiuxiu's cold eyes pierced her all at once, and she suddenly smiled sinisterly: "Ask."
When it comes to math problems, no one is better than her.
Xia Zhiyi: "Are you the real ghost king?"
"...?"
Zhou Xiuxiu: "What kind of math problem is this?"
Xia Zhiyi looked innocent: "I didn't say it was a math problem."
Zhou Xiuxiu: "..."
You are very brave.
Niu Xiazhi of Chaoyong Club ignored her speechless expression, and analyzed with reason: "You have to know that big bosses usually appear on the stage, and you blew yourself up when you came up, which makes it easy for people to suspect that you are pretending to be the ghost king." , and we don’t have the anti-fraud APP in your world, and we don’t want to be deceived, please understand.”
Zhou Xiuxiu: "You don't believe me?"
She grinned sinisterly, and said deliberately: "Then shall I give you a few key words, and you can tell me to take a look?"
Unexpectedly, Xia Zhiyi took out a pen and paper from her bag, ready to record: "Okay, please tell me."
Zhou Xiuxiu: "?"
What are you talking about? ? ?
Zhou Xiuxiu wasn't so stupid yet, and obviously didn't intend to give her a hint. After a snort, her body melted into the black blood beneath her, and instantly disappeared into the air, leaving only her voice floating in the wind.
"Xia Zhiyi, I'm looking forward to seeing your answer sheet."
The two looked at the empty roof again, and the wind blew past, as if the ghost king had never been here.
"What is she here for?" Xia Zhiyi asked.
"I don't know," Jing Ruyu replied, "A free ghost king has a free soul, so go wherever you like."
Jing Ruyu couldn't help but look back at her.
"You were really brave just now."
Xia Zhiyi: "Yes, I've always been good at facing up to difficulties, but it's a pity that I didn't come up with words..."
Holding a pen and paper, she sighed sincerely: "This ghost king is somewhat ruthless, and he didn't even bring one or two death keywords, so he came empty-handed!"
Jing Ruyu suddenly found it funny, couldn't help laughing twice, and then said softly: "Let's go, go back."
With such teammates around, it's hard not to be happy.
The author has something to say:
Starting tomorrow, it will resume to update at 9:00 every night.
Entering v Liao, you can add more Liao, so in order to thank the little cuties for their deep water, we will try our best to add more.
Today, I will make up the cute deep water first, and next time I will continue to make up other cuties. Don’t forget to watch it, boo chirp!
