Chapter 6

Gu Meng’s expression became cold, he didn’t pay attention to the man and left the backstage area at a fast pace. He saw several people standing by the window, at the southern part of the auditorium.

He jumped directly from the stage, “What happened?”

As he approached, he saw a small hill of minced meat piled up beside the wall. The viscous blood unceasingly spread around. A human head was right next to it.

It was He Wei.

That energetic big boy with a strong desire to express himself.

Gu Meng frowned between his eyebrows and took two steps back after he held back his nausea. He looked away, there was even a thick stench of blood when he breathed.

More and more people gathered around. The woman spontaneously huddled together. Except for Shui Xing standing in the centre, the rest of the women were crying in turmoil.

“Who was in a group with He Wei?” Xu Xing pushed his spectacles up with a grave expression, “Who saw what happened moments ago? He was fine so how did he become……become……”

It was practically like he was stuffed into a meat grinder.

The woman called Yu Mengmeng, who sat paralysed on the floor, was the first person to discover that He Wei died. She did not come back to her senses and lifelessly said, “Me, Jingjing and Hei Wei are in a team. I saw him standing motionless in front of the wall moments ago and called him twice. He still didn’t react so I came forth to push him……” Recalling the scene at that time, the woman retched, “Other than his head, his whole body collapsed and directly dropped down……”

The group felt a heavy sense of horror.

After everyone rushed here upon hearing the sound they got together to discuss. At the same time, they had mutual mistrust between each other.

“Don’t make random guesses and figure out what has happened.” Shui Xing lifted her long hair, “Looking at his method of death, abnormal means were definitely used. It is most likely……” After she thought about it for a while, she said, “It is most likely that his page in the name list was torn like that person at the school gate yesterday.”

There was a commotion in the crowd.

“Isn’t the name list in the custody of that female teacher?”

“That’s right and also, not half the people agree that they can apply to the teacher for the name list. Unless the perpetrator is not a human or either the male teacher or the female ghost!”

“Shit! There’s no hint at all. We don’t even know why he died.”

“Look at the window sill.”

Tang Zhi looked at the window high up, his clear eyes were calm.

Everyone stopped talking and followed his instruction to look at the window sill above.

Under the warm afternoon sun, a small hill of paper scraps was quietly piled there.

At this time, a breeze swept past from outside the window and the paper scraps fell. Meanwhile, the minced meat by the wall also slid down in all directions.

Many people screamed, jumping to the side. Some of them were touched by the white paper scraps and they vigorously flicked it off at once as if they had met a ghost.

“I’m going to die! I’m going to die!” Zhang Guoqiang flicked the paper scraps off his coat while hopping about in anxiety, “When was it torn? After tearing the paper and still being able to place it on such a high window sill, the one who could do it to this extent can only be the female ghost!”

Everyone’s faces had a variety of expressions.

“The female ghost also haunts during the day?”

Furthermore, the murder was gone undetected. Even if they are gathered together in a group, they are unable to escape the misfortune of being torn into pieces.

“What a shitty game this is! It is clearly sending each and every one of us to death. In any case, we will die anyway whether we participate or not. Laozi won’t play this rotten game anymore!” A young man’s face was flushed red. In the midst of his fear, he was very furious. He took off his uniform jacket and ferociously tossed it on the floor. With that, he went to the entrance of the old auditorium.

He was just halfway there when the doors of the old auditorium were pushed open from the outside. Warm sunlight streamed in.

With the sunlight shining from behind, a slender figure leisurely walked in. A thin waist, wide hips, a D cup bust and a sweet smile; but everyone knew. The person who came hardly thought twice about tearing up a page in the name list so they were extremely terrified.

The youth paused in his steps. In the next second, he changed his direction and returned to his original spot. He bent down to pick up the uniform jacket he had thrown on the floor moments ago, “This game, the most important thing is to participate, the most important thing is to participate……”

”

”

The other players: “……”

Teacher Xiaoyu entered, humming a lively tune and did not greet everyone but went directly towards the minced meat by the wall. Her black heels stepped lightly on the dark and sticky blood.

When she reached the bloody red small hill, she stopped humming and looked down. Then, slowly revealed a weird smile, “Chun Zi chose Classmate He Wei.”

Zhang Guoqiang endured the creeps and said, “Teacher, why did He Wei die?”

Teacher Xiaoyu exaggerated in covering up her chuckle, lowered her head in contemplation and paced about in that puddle of blood. From time to time, she kicked the sticky liquid under her feet like a little girl kicking a puddle on the roadside on a rainy day.

“He did something that Junzi was not pleased with.”

”

”

Tang Zhi quickly understood. He glanced at the body parts by the wall and said, “So this game has a hidden death condition. Whoever offends Chu Zi will be the one chosen and taken away.”

What condition? One person hurriedly said, “Chun Zi is not pleased with what?”

Bo Ye looked around the crowd and faintly said, “A few more deaths and the pattern can be found.”

Everyone shuddered at the same time.

Teacher Xiaoyu clapped her hands, attracting everyone’s attention and said, “The labour hours are not over yet. Please continue to fix up the auditorium so that Chun Zi can have a satisfactory farewell ceremony.”

No one was in the mood to continue cleaning after such a thing had happened but the NPC before them caused everyone to be afraid so everyone drooped their heads and rolled up their sleeves.

“Teacher, He Wei, his……” Gu Meng could not bear to look directly at the wall, “How do we deal with He Wei’s body?”

Teacher Xiaoyu smiled, “It’s okay, teacher will deal with it.”

When everyone was about to disperse, everyone saw the female teacher walking to the wall, holding a handful of meat and stuffing it directly into her mouth. The swallowing sound was quick and sticky.

Everyone swallowed their saliva at the same time.

It was nauseating and disgusting.

Before leaving with Bo Ye, Tang Zhi glanced back. He Wei’s head just happened to roll to the side. This movement attracted his attention. He stared intently and his sharp eyes spotted a detail.

Pulling Bo Ye’s hand, Tang Zhi said, “Look behind the ear of the deceased.”

Bo Ye looked back.

Behind the right ear of that head, a few neat and distinct blood traces on the pale skin formed a letter——

A.

The wound was fresh, as if it had just been carved.

*

When night fell, everyone finished their work for the day. Teacher Xiaoyu licked the blood between her fingers and smiled, “Eat more for dinner.”

That sentence almost made everyone puke.

The canteen was bustling with people, the students clamoured as they gathered together in groups of twos and threes to have their dinner. The atmosphere was no different from an ordinary school campus.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, as if they had returned to the world.

After getting some food, Gu Meng took his plate to find a seat and found Bo Ye and Tang Zhi sitting in a corner. Thus, he did not treat his roommate as an outsider and pulled him over with him.

“Let’s share a table together.” Gu Meng put down his plate and sat down regardless of whether the people sitting opposite of them agreed or not.

Tang Zhi saw that man who was always silent sitting diagonally opposite. He was hesitant, got close to Bo Ye’s ear and secretly said, “That’s him, the one that was peeking at us through the door in the storage room.”

Bo Ye eyed the man sitting opposite of him.

The man noticed his gaze and openly stared back at him. His eyes were clear and innocent. He completely did not have a guilty conscience that should have been there.

“Classmate, what’s your name?” Bo Ye placed his chopsticks down and picked up a drink to take a sip, he was ready to question him why he was peeking.

The man blurted out, “My name is Baby.”

Bo Ye spurted a mouthful of salted soda water right across.

The man dodged backwards a little but was not able to avoid it.

Gu Meng picked up a napkin and handed it to the man to wipe his face, looking awkward.

“Sorry.” Bo Ye took the napkin and dabbed it on the corner of his mouth and said, “But your name is truly……can’t be called out by others.”

Although the man always had a cold face and looked unapproachable, his personality seemed to be very good. He only shook his head and repeated, “My name is Baby.”

Bo Ye suddenly lost the mood to question him and put down his drink. It was hard for him to say, “Never mind. Classmate Bao1, let’s eat.”

Aside from what they experienced today, the four people had no topic to talk about but no one was willing to mention He Wei’s dead body at the dinner table so they ate in silence.

Bo Ye picked out the bone spurs of the small yellow croaker, picked the fish up with his chopsticks and said, “Baby, eat more.”

Before he could put the fish in Tang Zhi’s bowl, the plate opposite of him was pushed over.

The man who self-proclaimed himself as ‘Baby’ consciously said, “Thank you.”

“……”

Bo Ye and Tang Zhi looked over at the same time. The man was looking expectantly at the small yellow croaker hanging in midair.

The situation became a little awkward and Bo Ye coughed. He reluctantly placed the boneless fish into the man’s plate.

Tang Zhi pouted his lower lip and his face was full of displeasure.

Gu Meng looked to the side and facepalmed in helplessness.

“Baby. “Halfway through their meal, Bo Ye asked in concern, “Do you feel better? ”

Tang Zhi smiled and was about to answer when a soft male voice cut in, “Mhm. I’m good. I didn’t feel anything when I saw the corpse.”

Bo Ye grasped the chopsticks in his hand tightly and endured it, he said to the man, “Classmate, I wasn’t talking to you.”

The man looked at him in astonishment and completely did not understand, “Then why did you call me?”

Bo Ye: “I’m calling baby……”

”

”

The man: “Yes.”

Bo Ye flipped the table!

This was really a thick-skinned and nauseating boy who needed a beating.
