"What you have to do is..."
Before the words were spoken, everyone heard a dull crashing sound from downstairs, as if something had landed from a high altitude. According to the characteristics of the sound, Zhou Zhuo believed that it was a person who jumped from upstairs.
He looked back at Dai Yuanyi without asking any questions, but the other party must have understood what he meant.
"There are no students in our class who jump off the building... I can be sure they won't do it"
The teaching floors of Linghua Middle School are very high, and each floor has two rows of stairs. However, it is unrealistic for the height of the second floor to cause such a movement, so it can only be the third floor.
"Your class doesn't have it, do other classes have it?"
"Yes." Dai Yuanyi's face was ugly, "Almost every class has students who committed suicide by jumping off the building. Discrimination and exclusion don't just happen in Class 9."
Zhou Zhuo originally wanted to say that even in Linghua Middle School, it would be too exaggerated for every class to have students who jumped from the building. Jumping from the building is the most difficult method of suicide.
It seems to be a jump, but in fact, when you come to the edge of the roof, the desire for survival shown by your body is unimaginably strong. Your hands will react faster than your brain, and you will hold on to the railing until you give up jumping. After thinking.
But combined with what Dai Yuanyi said just now, Zhou Zhuo immediately realized, is the death of students the curse contained in this land?
Thinking about it this way, the collective suicide of the students in class 309 seemed even more suspicious.
"Do you know anything about other classes?"
"No." Dai Yuanyi shook his head, "We seldom take the initiative to care about external affairs. We only heard about these things at the grade meeting."
"What is your grade assembly usually about? Why did you mention this?"
"The grade conference is held twice a semester. It is actually a commendation conference. The main content is to award certificates and bonuses based on the mock exam results, and then name and criticize the classes that have problems with their grades and atmosphere."
"A class where a student commits suicide will be criticized?"
"Yes, the measures taken by the school are to monitor each other. If there is self-harm or even suicide in the class, then the whole class needs to share the responsibility. Students will be deducted from test scores, while teachers will directly deduct their performance and basic salary."
"Do you even know the teacher so well?"
"Cao Zhi said in the class meeting that not only learning, but our words and deeds will also affect the teacher's work income. If he cannot get a satisfactory salary, then he will not be able to devote 100% of his energy to teaching. Honor and disgrace are one body, and no one can stay out of it."
"It sounds quite pertinent." Zhou Zhuo originally thought that Cao Zhi would say something ugly, but it seemed that he was still very good at disguising in real life.
Dai Yuanyi's expression didn't change. It seems that even Class 309 doesn't like to see this person surnamed Cao very much. He doesn't even want to add the teacher's honorific title. Considering that Cao Zhi's peeping in the women's bathroom was protected by the principal and was not exposed, then it should be It's a question of work attitude.
"Being pertinent can't change anything. What's more, he has always been inconsistent with his words and deeds. What he says is completely different from what he actually does. Do you know what he said when the class was just divided?"
"I guess he should have made a big promise, for example, he must take you out of the predicament, otherwise he would resign on the spot and go home to farm or something like that."
Dai Yuanyi was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Almost, he said that the score line of Class 9 must be at least above the average line of the whole school. If he can't do it, he will shave his head and run around the playground naked. Finally, I went to the principal's office to hand in my resignation letter."
Zhou Zhuo's focus is always different from others, he asked curiously: "Can I bring a resignation letter with me while running naked? Where can I put it?"
"...I don't know, that's what he said anyway."
"He just wanted to take the opportunity to release his perverted nature. Even if he really brought you to the mean line, he would probably do so. He called it a celebration, and then begged everyone not to post it in the circle of friends, and then desperately reposted it. The popularity turned him into an Internet celebrity." Zhou Zhuo casually complained.
Although I really don't like Zhou Zhuo's behavior style, it is absolutely impossible to become friends in any sense, but a person that everyone hates can easily bring the relationship between the two closer. Dai Yuanyi almost subconsciously nodded in agreement with Zhou Zhuo. statement.
That is to say, Cao Zhi is not here, otherwise he would be shocked, thinking how he could even see through his underwear. In fact, this routine has been used badly in the real world, but there are too many leeks, and there are not enough speculators. up.
The topic has obviously gone astray, but this kind of chat is not completely useless. At least during the conversation, Dai Yuanyi's guard against Zhou Zhuo has obviously decreased a lot. At this time, he can try to cut into the topic and say Some things the other party didn't want to mention before.
"What about the students in your class? Have you been criticized by name at the grade meeting?"
Dai Yuanyi's expression darkened, and he shook his head and said, "No, out of protection, the school unanimously decided not to mention anything about Class 9 during the grade meeting."
It sounds like a good thing, but Dai Yuanyi's expression is not so good-looking. The reason is very simple, because no matter whether the other party has good intentions or not, being ignored is a very heavy thing for a student or a child, and it is even more embarrassing than swearing. People are uncomfortable.
Class 9 has already been ridiculed by other classes, this action can be said to add insult to injury, but up to now, Zhou Zhuo has heard only irrelevant digressions, these things can be conceived without investigation, advocating A school based on achievement theory will only be more cruel than a real society where money is paramount.
"But no one in your class chose suicide or other escape methods. Did someone help in this?" Zhou Zhuo keenly captured the key points.
"Yes……"
Before Dai Yuanyi could answer, the front door of the classroom was suddenly opened, and the mysterious person shrouded in a cloud of black mist entered 309, and came straight to the podium like a teacher, very fast.
At such a critical moment, Zhou Zhuo certainly would not allow Dai Yuanyi to choke back what he had said, and grabbed him by the collar: "Who is that person?!"
"He is a kind uncle..."
"What is a kind uncle, he is not a school employee?"
"No." Dai Yuanyi shook his head.
At this time, the mysterious person on the podium spoke: "Thank you for waiting for half an hour. I believe you are ready for the next exam. This exam is not about knowledge, but about friends."
"Wait." Zhou Zhuo stretched out his hand and interrupted the mysterious man's statement, "Before the exam, I have a question. When did half an hour pass? The body sensation is obviously only about 10 minutes."
"Somatosensory? Somatosensory doesn't count, you have to watch the time."
Zhou Zhuo looked in the direction of the mysterious man's finger. The countdown was actually playing on the TV. Now there is only 1 minute left, which looks decent, but the question is, was there really a 30-minute countdown just now?No matter how you look at it, it looks like the other party made it up temporarily to fool people, right?
"I will not lie about such meaningless things. In contrast, you should pay more attention to the upcoming exam, which determines whether you can climb out of this bottomless abyss. something to pursue?"
"What I want has nothing to do with you and is not at your disposal."
"But you are already under my control, unless you plan to use some method to forcefully leave this examination room—if you can."
There was a little smile in the mysterious man's tone, clearly he was sure that Zhou Zhuo would not leave here even if he had the means, Zhou Zhuo really had nothing to do about it, and if he played lip service again, it would appear that he was too immeasurable to lose, Zhou Zhuo Of course he wouldn't fall for such a simple trick, he just chuckled lightly and didn't answer any more.
The other party was so eager to interrupt his conversation with Dai Yuanyi, which indirectly proved that Zhou Zhuo's direction was correct. Class 309 itself had problems, but the problems were not serious. The variable method can easily get the answer. The problem must lie with the "kind uncle" who is outside the school.
"It seems that the opinions have been unified. I have to say that this is not a good thing. Everyone's color will be shown if the voice is different. But this is an exam, and the exam needs to be more serious."
After passing the first exam, the mysterious man gradually showed a talkative side, and his personality was not as gloomy as imagined.
"What's the content of the next exam?" Zhou Zhuo didn't want to give this flamboyant a chance to show off, so he directly interrupted the other party's free and divergent thoughts by catching up.
"The name of this exam is 'Best Friends Back to Back'. The task you have to do is very simple, that is, answer the three questions raised by the other party within a limited time. All communication other than questions and answers is prohibited. After answering, You need to say the name of the opponent, and the loser will be eliminated immediately."
"I have a question." Zhou Zhuo raised his hand, "Can there be an explicit statement in the question?"
"Although try, this is your freedom, but I need to remind one thing in advance, no matter whether it is explicit or implied, it is impossible to do it. The questioner comes from him in your heart, not a real person. As long as you firmly believe in your heart, You must pass the test."
This game sounds more interesting than the mock exam, but relatively, the difficulty has also increased a lot, because there is no standard answer, how to find the correct way to pass the level has become the biggest problem.
"What can I get after passing the test?" Zhou Zhuo raised his hand again and asked, "Will there be any difficulties in the future?"
"You can be free by passing the college exam. This is what you promised earlier, and there will be no additional difficulties." The mysterious man replied immediately.
"Will the loser be punished?"
"Failure itself is a punishment. You should already know the rules of this school, right?"
"I don't understand, can you tell me in detail?"
Zhou Zhuo's attitude was clearly just delaying time. When Dai Yuanyi heard this sentence, he even shuddered in his heart, for fear that there would be an irreconcilable conflict between the two sides, which would affect Chi Yu.
Although he is very clear that he is a ghost and the other party is a living person, he always feels that he is Chi Yu. In terms of ability to make troubles, ten students from class 309 may not be as good as Zhou Zhuo.
But to everyone's surprise, the mysterious man actually answered him.
"The school's rule is competition. If you want to live, you must surpass others all the time. Your achievements and future are all based on the losers. Only by stepping over their corpses can you touch the sky."
Judging from the accuracy and words used by the mysterious person in summarizing Linghua Middle School, this person is definitely from the school. The image described in Yuan Yi's mouth.
"Since everyone has to step over the corpse of the loser to leave this abyss, what is the point of finding friends? Everyone is a competitor for the same goal. With this relationship, it will be more enjoyable to step on. Is it a little?"
"No." The tone of the mysterious man paused again, "The relationship between friends is a very special existence, it will produce unexpected power, if you want to get unexpected results, maybe you can try to rely on it friend."
"That doesn't sound like a joke."
"Whether a sentence sounds like a joke should be determined by the audience. If you believe it, it is not a joke." The mysterious man really chatted with Zhou Zhuo, "This explanation should be enough to satisfy all your doubts. It’s up to you to find it yourself.”
The other party has made it clear that he doesn't want to go deeper into this topic, and there will be no good results if he presses the question. Moreover, Zhou Zhuo is now worried about the issue of time.
If Wansan’s demolition team separates from him, there may be problems like the previous team. After all, 100 people may seem like a lot, but for the scale of Linghua Middle School, it’s like pouring a glass of water into a lake. Can't make any waves.
"Okay, I have no questions, let's start the exam."
The others were not forced by things like Zhou Zhuo, or they didn't have the courage to challenge the rules, so they all chose to remain silent.
"Then the exam begins, I wish you all the real strength from your friends."
The mysterious man clapped his hands, and class 309 was instantly submerged by the dark wave.
Chapter 238 Good friends back to back
The line of sight was surrounded by darkness, and it was extraordinarily quiet.
While waiting for the exam content to appear, Zhou Zhuo was thinking.
Previously, he thought that the definition of "friend" was a trap thrown by the inviter, deliberately allowing the invited player to step into it, but now it seems that the mysterious person really wants to build the entire game around this concept and guide players To discover some key information.
But Zhou Zhuo didn't understand that point yet, because he didn't feel what the "friends" mentioned in the invitation letter meant after entering the school. Strictly speaking, even Muzi is not considered, or is the direction of understanding wrong?
When Zhou Zhuo was thinking, he suddenly felt something stuck to his back in the dark, cold and stiff, clinging to his back. He couldn't actively touch the other person, but blinded his vision and made his other senses very sharp. Zhou Zhuo could even feel the material of the clothes the other party was wearing.
The autopsy experience gained from practice told him that this was a corpse, and it was a corpse with rigor, and the death time was about 2-3 hours. The deceased was 5-10 centimeters shorter than himself, with long straight hair and a slender figure. , there is no obvious muscle group in the waist and back, it should be a woman, and the clothes she wears are made of delicate and soft materials.
This feeling is quite strange. Zhou Zhuo has been in contact with many corpses and dissected some of them. He no longer has the fear of ordinary people for the dead, and Zhou Zhuo, who has a rich imagination, has already simulated many impossible situations. Even when the corpse suddenly sat up on the dissecting table, he could dismantle the other's joints without haste.
But Zhou Zhuo had never imagined the situation in front of him, sticking close to the corpse and asking the question answered by the other party?This scene is very visual when you think about it.
His heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and Zhou Zhuo realized that he was a little flustered, but fortunately, his vision was still dark. Considering that the mysterious person did not have the ability to change the scene, he must have entered some kind of hallucinatory place.
Illusions usually do not directly cause harm. As long as you have strong will and observation skills and find out the loopholes in them, you can avoid being affected. Thinking of this, Zhou Zhuo calmed down a little, and began to think about how the current sensory system brought Ahri to him. information.
The scope of the topic is "good friends". If you want to find friends who are brought into the ghost school, then it can only be Lin Slowly and Muzi.
Zhou Zhuo didn’t know Muzi well, he just learned about Muzi’s previous life experience, so it’s basically unrealistic to fully guess Muzi’s thoughts, but fortunately, Zhou Zhuo has a chance to win the other option, if he can’t answer the three questions If the answer comes up, then according to the method of elimination, we can know that the other party must be Muzi.
But you can’t take it for granted, the senses can go wrong, the mysterious person said that the questioner comes from him in your heart, not the real person, which means that this is actually a deep dialogue between yourself and yourself.
The other party didn't limit the scope of friends to the exam, maybe Liu Qianqian, Xiang Qiuyue, Xu Ying, or even people outside the school are next to him.
"bring it on."
Zhou Zhuo took a deep breath to stabilize his heartbeat, get rid of distracting thoughts, and avoid affecting his senses. He seemed to feel hot blood flowing on the surface of his body, which was the proof of the existence of the blood coat, and his real body was still protected.
There was a slight vibration behind him, and Zhou Zhuo quickly realized that this was a signal that the game was about to start. He straightened his mind, and then heard a very chaotic neutral voice, it was difficult to distinguish whether it was a man or a woman, let alone the other party identity.
"What do you want your death to be like?"
Zhou Zhuo was stunned. The first question is very difficult. The rule of the game is to answer three questions. How to answer depends on oneself. No one knows what will happen if you talk nonsense. The most important thing is that the answer can affect process, and the participants have to rely on these questions to deduce the identity of the questioner, which may be a bit troublesome.
Who would say such a thing?There is no personal characteristic at all, like a question that many people will think about.
Choose a way to die.
Since it was a self-question in the illusion, Zhou Zhuo restrained himself a little, because what he said was likely to be reflected in the scene.
"I hope to die of old age in a quiet room, without pain or regret," Zhou Zhuo said.
If Guan Gou was here, he would probably complain, "Come on, if you want my brother to wear a Kamen Rider leather cover to present you flowers, just say so, you don't need to beat around the bush", because Zhou Zhuo is a duplicity person and likes to be lively It doesn't mean that you hate quietness. It is normal for most people to have two faces in front of others.
As soon as the words fell, the surrounding scene became the bedroom of his own home. Zhou Zhuo spent many years here since he was a child, and he was also used to the days without the company of his parents.
He was lying on the bed, like countless days and nights in the past, but this time he couldn't jump out of bed like a carp after a whole night to go to school.
His weak body was like a stiff dead body, without any ability to move, and of course he didn't feel any pain, but just felt unstoppable sleepiness, just as he answered, and the feeling of a dead body pressed against his back still existed , suddenly brought him a subtle sense of dependence.
Zhou Zhuo knew that this was an illusion, so he didn't feel panicked, instead he became calmer, but he didn't wait for the ending of "end of life", and the next question came one second later.
"What is justice in your heart?"
It has risen to an academic level all of a sudden... But the bias of this question is more obvious. Those high school students Zhou Zhuo knows will never ask this kind of question that looks tall but actually has every point in place. The problem, the other party is definitely Lin slowly running away.
"Justice is the balance between the strong and the weak. The strong do not have to compromise with the weak in everything, and the weak will not be exploited by the strong within the rules. Once it is tilted to one side, justice is no longer justice."
The monotonous boys' bedroom quickly disappeared from sight, and Zhou Zhuo came to a new scene.
This is a classroom, the familiar 101.
Chen Haoyu was deliberately teasing Liu Qianqian, saying that she was dressed so beautifully all day long, did she have a boyfriend outside, Liu Qianqian angrily turned around and grabbed a book on the table and threw it over, the spine of the book just hit Chen Haoyu's nose, bleeding Yes, this scene happened to be seen by Huang Mingsong who entered the classroom with the lesson plan in his arms.
Of course Huang Mingsong knew that Chen Haoyu was the thorn in the class, and he often led a few older boys to bully the girls, but it was an indisputable fact that Liu Qianqian threw a book at him, so he didn't criticize anyone, chose to ignore it, and started class directly .
The other students seemed to have not seen this scene, and opened their textbooks one after another. Amid Huang Mingsong's lecture, Zhou Zhuo began to think.
He knew that this was his sense of justice starting to compete, and while answering the question, he was also asking himself.
The three people in the scene have their own positions, Liu Qianqian is the weak, Chen Haoyu is the relative strong, Huang Mingsong is the absolute strong, the fake strong provokes first, the weak misses and hurts others, the real strong chooses to ignore, None of the three did their share of justice, but the situation maintained a delicate balance——
Liu Qianqian vented her anger and was not punished. Chen Haoyu knew that he had committed a crime, and he was ruined in front of the whole class. He lost his reputation and was embarrassed to speak up. He even stopped for a while, acting like a man with his tail between his legs.
However, Huang Mingsong, who was able to reconcile but did nothing, got a quiet and beautiful afternoon, and he would not be thankless, he would not be wronged inside and outside, and he would not be deducted from his salary.
Justice is obviously seriously lacking, but the result is good. The concept that should exist objectively has formed a dynamic and balanced concept. Does this mean that pure justice is not as important as imagined?
