“Congratulations, you’ve been accepted.”
Chen Xiao’ai, dazed, shook hands with the interviewer lady, thinking her luck since transmigrating was just one good break after another.
<...Chapter 180 The End of the Fourth Week
"Kiss me."
Xinaya murmured in her dying moments, her mouth wide open with a smile, feeling the blood rushing from her nose and mouth into her throat and esophagus, her whole body filled with a fishy and sweet smell.
Ah~ My own blood is so delicious, how much better must Chen Xiao'er's taste.
How could that little bit be enough? It wasn't enough at all—not blood or kisses.
Xinnaya laughed even more happily, and she could no longer see Chen Xiao'er's outline: If you really want to lean over and kiss me, I will definitely... bite off your tongue.
There's no way. You're making me lose control.
The coquettish sentences kept floating in her mind. Xinaya's appetite grew stronger and stronger before death came, and even her intestines and stomach were complaining.
I'm so hungry. I'm really hungry. If I can't taste you, I will starve to death.
So "kiss" me, Chen Xiao'er.
The rustling sound of the chainsaw stopped.
A warm feeling was approaching, and at the same time, soft hands pressed on her shoulders.
Huh? You're coming closer... Really? Are you really going to do this?
Xinnaya licked the blood in her mouth. If her spine had not been injured, she would have raised her head to meet the attack.
Click.
The teeth of the chainsaw pressed against her right shoulder, and Chen Xiao'er's soft voice sounded cold for the first time.
"Don't make me chop your claws off. It will hurt."
“…Puff, hahahaha, cough cough cough.” Sinaya tasted her voice and found that this girl still felt [heartache] for her enemy until now?
No, no, no, you don't have to feel sorry for me. I am very happy now, very, very happy.
She smiled and said, "Come on?"
"Uh," Chen Xiao'er hiccupped in fear. She really couldn't understand why someone would chase you and go crazy without any warning.
Originally, I could have avoided this unreasonable guy by going back in time, but I didn't expect that he would stick to me by accident.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have killed her. It would have been better for her to just endure it.
But even if it happens again, I won’t make it to the daytime, because I’m afraid of losing the trump card of time rewinding and really going to the next day.
Chen Xiao'er's face darkened. She looked at the playful woman and said loudly, "Don't think I don't dare! If you keep pestering me, I'll make you very painful. So go back and do your own thing, and we'll part ways, okay?"
"No~good~"
Xinnaya spat out a piece of blood clot while laughing. She wanted to continue teasing such a cute Chen Xiao'er, but her body was getting colder and colder.
My life for this round is almost over, right? So, let's at least try to have some sort of first-time experience.
The blonde woman licked her lips as Chen Xiao'er's gaze, a mixture of pity and disgust, said in a sticky and hoarse voice, "Hurry up... hurry up and chop it up. This is my first time... experiencing the feeling of being cut into pieces by a chainsaw. Ahem, it feels so good."
Being dismembered with a chainsaw by the one you love must be a pleasant thing no matter how you think about it, right?
When I think that I can experience a similar feeling more than once, no, there will be a brand new way to play every time, I feel like I am the happiest person in the world.
"Hurry up, or I'll die first, Chen Xiao'er." Xinnaya said word by word, "Next time, I'll do the same to you. Do you like to start with your right hand or your leg?"
"No, that's unreasonable!!!" You're definitely threatening me, right?!
Chen Xiao'er couldn't believe that someone would dare to come closer to me again and again despite being in so much pain. This pervert must not want to be hurt by the chainsaw, so he threatened me with "It's your turn next time."
Humph, a short pain is better than a long one. I've scared you this time, so you won't come again next time!
Chen Xiao'er hardened her heart and pulled the chainsaw, causing blood foam to splatter onto her skirt, chest, and face.
The person she suppressed may have died without making a sound, and probably still had a peaceful smile on his face.
Chen Xiao'er shuddered. She couldn't see Xinnaya's face, but she could inexplicably feel her "happiness".
Click.
The bones of the right arm were completely severed, and the chainsaw in Chen Xiao'er's hand fell down along with the arm.
“Wuwu… Wuaaaaaaa——”
Tears rolled down my face, and endless grievances and sadness were released loudly at this moment.
「Why would I do such a thing──」
The last time I strangled myself, it was just an attempt to save myself, but this time, this time, this time... Although it was also to save myself, I can't convince myself at all.
Her hands were shaking violently, and she felt like something in her spirit was broken.
I want to have a happy high school life, live happily with my mother and Xiaotong, and become a kind adult who is useful to society.
But now... it's not the case at all.
Tick.
A drop of water fell on Xinaya's broken shoulder, and her consciousness, which was about to fade away, was actually restored a little.
"Why...are you crying?"
At this moment, Xinaya saw the girl's image clearly.
Because the vast light spots lingered around Chen Xiao'er, completely reflecting her fragility and sadness, and even the drops of tears emitted an empty glow like stars.
How lovely you are, what an ugly posture.
You should be smiling.
The experience just now made Xinaya feel like she was ascending to heaven. The feeling of being treated with attention by the one she loved and the novelty of being struck by a chainsaw completely surpassed the ultimate perception of both the devil and humans.
But now, seeing the girl's painful tears, that precious joy disappeared.
She was like a wealthy old man on his deathbed, watching his young lover's hair begin to grey.
That’s enough. What I like is your beautiful posture, not the way you are now!
【Really】
An extremely complex and indescribable anger gushed out from the bottom of her heart, and Xinaya attributed it entirely to the collapse of her idol.
The devil cannot understand tears and sorrow.
She just tried her best to stretch out her remaining left hand, hoping to cover the crying face of the person she "loved".
Don’t cry, don’t cry so fragilely - I don’t care about human weakness and humbleness, but I hate seeing you vulnerable the most!
"Don't... cry."
You, you're not dead yet?!
A heavy feeling of regret, almost enough to make me vomit, weighed on my heart.
Chen Xiao'er was so angry that her head hurt. She gritted her teeth and shouted, "That's enough—never do such meaningless things again next time. Do you hear me?!"
“Is this kind of thing fun?”
"Can you do something meaningful?"
Sentences that seemed familiar, yet also unfamiliar, echoed in my ears. They were all from Chen Xiao'er, and the tone was always filled with boredom.
Meaning? Aren’t you my meaning?
Xinnaya couldn't understand, but now Chen Xiao'er finally stopped crying.
The way you frown and look filled with anger... is so cute.
You're cuter when you smile.
"Tsk." Xinnaya's eyes gradually lost focus, and her raised left hand slid down weakly, failing to brush the girl's cheek as she tried desperately to dodge.
“…Smile.” She closed her eyes, with a hint of a smile still lingering at the corners of her mouth.
"Woo." Chen Xiao'er bit her tongue, letting her teeth bite through the tongue coating. Only the physical pain could make her feel better.
Can I really use pain to force this bastard back?
She came to the sad conclusion: I'm afraid not.
Xinnaya didn't seem to be afraid of the pain, and she really didn't want to be chopped again.
Forget it, I'm already dead, so I should think about what to do next time. I hope this guy learns his lesson, otherwise it will take a lot of effort just to avoid him.
Chen Xiao'er dragged her legs to her feet and picked up the chainsaw on the ground.
Rustle, rustle.
What's that sound? Someone!
She turned around suddenly, and more than a dozen dark shadows surrounded her from all directions.
The moment she turned around, several nearby shadows jumped up, scaring Chen Xiao'er so much that she screamed, "Ahhh—ghost—"
"Ouch—chainsaw murder, ugh."
The shadow that pounced on his face was hit by the table, stumbling on both sides and stopped screaming.
Click, the light comes on.
Lin Lang held his head, opened one eye, and looked at Chen Xiao'er in surprise.
Milo lowered the switch, his eyes sweeping across the body and severed arm on the ground, then landing on the chainsaw in Chen Xiao'er's hand. "Student Chen, could you please put the chainsaw down first?"
"Yeah, yeah!" Chen Xiao'er nodded vigorously. She threw the chainsaw aside and raised her hands: "Don't worry, it really wasn't me, ah, although I did it, but, but I have a reason!"
Zero held the chainsaw aside.
Lin Lang also straightened up and nodded vigorously: "Yeah, that's right~ This guy is a bad guy, we all know that."
Although it is true... Chen Xiao sighed softly and sat down on the stool.
The fluorescent lights dispelled the darkness, revealing the true nature of this floor to everyone.
Line after line was drawn on the floor, the color like dried blood.
Many floors at key locations will have a bulge in the center. This bulge must have been there during firing, and something was specially filled into it.
Zheng Lu squatted down and picked at the bump on the floor. "It's definitely a ritual. Someone wants to sacrifice everyone in the building to the Serpent God."
"Snake God? That's not the god worshipped by the school..." Milo paused, no other option coming to mind. She said thoughtfully, "It really is a snake god."
Zheng Lu withdrew her hand, her expression becoming even more indifferent. "The magic circle is active and may be activated at any time. It should only be part of a larger array. Even if it is destroyed here, it will be useless."
Except for a few students with a religious background, everyone else was confused.
Chen Xiao'er covered her head. After hearing Zheng Lu's suggestion, she also thought of a new clue: Mom and Xiaotong seemed to also worship the Snake God? After all, everyone in the Chen family was a Snake God believer... Why didn't I think of this before?
This world has never heard of anyone having super powers. All abnormal phenomena and the power to combat abnormalities come from God.
So my ability to travel back in time should be a power given by God?
God would not casually grant such powerful power to a believer, unless... unless it is going to fight another powerful opponent!
"Everyone."
Chen Xiao'er perked up at the thought, looking at everyone with bright eyes: "Actually, I was given the ability to go back in time by the gods. I think I will use it to solve the issue of the sacrifice!"
She briefly described the three flashbacks she had experienced before, emphasizing that her mother and Xiaotong might be the sacrifices necessary for God's enemies.
Everyone listened to her in shock, and most people looked a little skeptical.
Ling held Chen Xiao'er's hand and said to everyone seriously, "I can prove that everything she said is true. I drowned in the swimming pool with Xiao'er last time, so I went back with her this time."
Chen Xiao'er pointed hurriedly at the body on the ground. "And Xinnaya! You can check. I don't know her at all, but she rushed to the school to find me... I'm sorry, it's my fault that she hired someone to attack the school."
After she finished speaking, she ran to the side of the body and fumbled around for a while, finally finding the severed hand. She took out the paper ball from the palm of the hand and unfolded it in front of everyone.
【Sinaya】
"You see, I knew she thought I didn't know her, so I wrote her name on purpose to attract attention!"
Milo carefully studied their expressions: the Zero in his memory was certainly not a student who would lie. And Chen Xiao'er's expression, small movements, and words didn't seem fake either.
If Chen Xiao'er was not lying, she had only looked back three times and indeed could not find enough evidence to prove such a bizarre thing.
But the ritual formation under the school is real.
Milo had a lot of knowledge about sacrifice in his mind. If the ritual array that could sacrifice an entire school was only a part of a larger array, then the sacrifice that the large array was pointing to... was most likely [Changhe City] itself.
rustling.
During the few seconds of her silence, the array suddenly lit up!
"The sacrifice is about to begin!" Zheng Lu suddenly turned to Chen Xiao'er and shouted, "Xiao'er, if you really have the ability to go back in time, die quickly, or you'll be sacrificed to the Snake God by the array!"
“Yes, yes!”
Chen Xiao'er hurriedly felt around, took out a fruit knife, put it against her chest, and began to tremble violently.
The first time he fainted, the second time he fell to death, the third time he drowned...but stabbing himself to death with a knife was the first time.
Determination and the desire to survive collide violently.
The light grew brighter, her hands trembled more violently, but she clenched them tighter and tighter.
Chen Xiao'er moved the tip of the knife from her chest to her throat. Would this make her die faster?
Click.
Zero grabbed her wrist and shook his head, "I'll knock you out first. You said you fainted the first time."
Looking at Ling's icy blue eyes, Chen Xiao'er's eyes were filled with mist: "Okay."
The teacher's calm voice sounded from the side: "Wait a moment, I have a suggestion. Since you said that those who died with you will retain their memories and enter a retrospective state, why not do it together?"
"Eh?" Chen Xiao'er turned around and saw Mi Luo raising his revolver. The muzzle of the gun wasn't pointed at her, but at the teacher himself.
"Teacher," she pursed her lips: "How about I do it..."
Miroku put the muzzle of his gun against the solar plexus and said with a smile: "As a teacher, how can I let my students touch such a sad thing."
If that helps. "See you today."
Bang!
The gun went off.
