The strange thing in the blue room was a page of diary paper. After the seven people touched it, they entered the first floor of the teaching building.

Their consciousness randomly penetrated into the students of each class. Because they were B-level monsters, after they entered, the other NPCs whose consciousness did not penetrated were frozen in place.

Apart from the sound of rummaging through things, each class was unusually quiet.

One reason is that we have to race against time to find the trick.

The second reason was the man with the machete in the corridor.

He wore a gray shirt and jeans, a perfectly ordinary outfit, even a bit slovenly, and a pair of flip-flops. As the seven people gradually crossed over, the man froze in the hallway, his left hand clutching a male student, his right hand holding a machete high. It was hard to imagine how the story would have unfolded if they hadn't crossed over.

Before touching the diary paper, Zheng Yuanyuan had noticed the contents on it.

It was a student's autobiography, detailing every abnormal treatment she received at school. The last paragraph was addressed to her father.

Dad, it's going to get colder, remember to put on more clothes.

Dad, I know you are very busy, remember to eat.

Dad, I'm sorry, I really can't be strong enough.

Dad, when you are free, remember to think of me.

When Zheng Yuanyuan regained consciousness, she saw a desk in the classroom piled with chrysanthemums, and there was also a chrysanthemum on the man's chest. She thought that this man was the child's father.

Suddenly thinking of something, Zheng Yuanyuan slowly stood up and put the textbook in her hand back to its original place.

The diary was written by the child to her father, so it shouldn't be in anyone else's desk. The most likely place for it is on her father's body.

Zheng Yuanyuan came to the corridor, looked at the man's ferocious expression, and swallowed silently.

She wanted to tell everyone about her discovery, but then she thought, what if her guess was wrong? Wouldn't that be a waste of everyone's time? After much hesitation, she decided to look for it herself and mustered up the courage to go forward.

A half-meter-long machete was right in front of her. She took a deep breath and tentatively reached out her hand to grab it.

But the man's grip was so tight that veins popped out, and she tried twice but to no avail. Even though she hadn't managed to snatch the knife, after trying twice, she was certain the man wouldn't move, so she felt a little relieved.

Moving her eyes down to the man's trouser pocket, Zheng Yuanyuan cautiously reached in. Finding nothing on one side, she moved around to the other... and sure enough, she found a neatly folded piece of paper.

After opening it and looking at the contents, they could confirm that this was the weird thing they were looking for.

"Each... Ugh!"

Zheng Yuanyuan was delighted and was about to tell others when a hand suddenly reached out from behind and covered her mouth, forcing her to say only one word.

“!!!”

Zheng Yuanyuan's scalp was tingling, and her mind was full of the image of the machete about to fall.

In a trance, she remembered Qi Mi's words -

If someone attacks you from behind and grabs you by the neck, you can use this hard part of your elbow to hit the person's abdomen hard...

In order to learn basic self-defense methods, she has been asking Qi Mi to teach her these days. Although she is still at the stage of fancy moves, she can exchange a few moves with Qi Mi without him using real skills.

She frowned, and the urgency of life and death made her use all her strength to slam back.

Her consciousness had originally traveled to the body of a strong male student, and this time she used so much strength that the person behind her screamed in pain and quickly let go of her.

Zheng Yuanyuan quickly stepped back and turned around, and saw an ordinary male student squatting on the ground with a grin on his face.

The man holding the machete stood motionless beside him, looking ferocious.

Zheng Yuanyuan gasped, realizing it was a misunderstanding, and hurried forward to help the student up. "I'm sorry, I thought it was the uncle who suddenly moved. I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Are you okay?"

"You said I was okay!" The male student's eyes suddenly became stern, and he grabbed her collar, "Is it okay for me to beat you up like this?"

After two seconds of silence, Zheng Yuanyuan closed her eyes and said, "One dozen for one dozen, it's what I should do."

"You said it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the male student kicked her in the abdomen.

In an instant, severe pain in her internal organs spread rapidly. Zheng Yuanyuan felt a momentary blank in her mind, and her whole body fell to the ground completely out of control.

Zheng Yuanyuan had been spoiled since she was little, so how could she have been beaten like this? Her nose suddenly felt sore and her eyes instantly turned red.

But the male student didn't seem to want to just avenge the elbow, and walked forward with bloodshot eyes.

At this time, several other people who heard the noise rushed over and quickly pulled them apart:

"What are you doing?"

"That's right, stop fighting, we have something important to do."

“…”

Disturbed by the crowd, the male student stopped and pointed at Zheng Yuanyuan: "Tell me your name, and I'll deal with you when I get out."

A female student helped Zheng Yuanyuan up. Seeing the boy's tears welling up in his eyes, she immediately understood and said, "His consciousness is all messed up now. What if this boy's consciousness is that of a girl? Why would you hit a girl?"

The male student didn't take it seriously and was even more arrogant: "What's wrong with being a girl? Even if it's a girl, I'll still settle the score! Tell me your name, and I'll go out and teach you how to be a girl!"

"That's enough!" At this moment, a confident fat boy interrupted the farce, "We're here to take the assessment and complete the mission, not to bother with your nonsense! Let them go, killing them will just eliminate a competitor!"

When they heard this, they all let go of their hands.

The male student spat and kicked Zheng Yuanyuan a few more times.

The fat boy was just trying to provoke the other person, but he didn't expect that the other person was so mentally ill, so he quickly grabbed him and pulled him away.

"Wait for me, let's talk outside!" The male student turned around and cursed.

Even the female students couldn't stand his behavior and sighed softly, "Fuck, I don't know how this guy made it past the first level of morality. If this guy becomes a Purification Officer, humanity will be doomed... Are you okay?"

Zheng Yuanyuan sniffed and hurriedly wiped her tears with her sleeves, trying her best to control her emotions and not burst into tears.

Suddenly thinking of the diary paper, she found that her hands were empty, so she hurriedly felt her pockets... empty.

The floor of the corridor was also clean without a single piece of paper.

"I just found the diary paper in that man's pocket, but it suddenly disappeared." Zheng Yuanyuan choked.

"You found it?!" Upon hearing that she had found the trick, the female student hurriedly helped her search her pockets.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind, and Zheng Yuanyuan held the girl's hand: "I know where it is! It's in the hand of that person just now!"

The two looked at each other and hurried to find the male student.

Fortunately, he didn't go far and was searching for something in the next classroom. When Zheng Yuanyuan pointed out that he had taken the strange thing, everyone gathered around him.

The male student scoffed: "I don't know what you are talking about. I have never seen it."

As he said this, he deliberately turned out all his pockets to prove his innocence, "I'm afraid you can find it on me. I think you are just trying to get revenge on me."

Zheng Yuanyuan recalled for a while, and felt more and more that the male student would not cover her mouth for no reason. It was obvious that he did not want others to know about the existence of the strange thing so that he could take away the paper in the chaos.

The others didn't know the reason and could only watch the two of them.

The fat boy scratched his head anxiously and cursed softly. He didn't know who to trust, so he could only attack indiscriminately: "Oh shit, this is how you guys are going to play, right?! You're stalling for time, aren't you afraid that someone from another room will grab your spot? What the hell is this? You're hurting the enemy a thousand times but hurting yourself eight hundred, right? Fine, come on, let's all die together!"

Instigated by this, several people began to get anxious and no longer cared about being polite, and they all started searching the two people.

The male student simply took off his shoes and watched coldly as they searched carefully, even down to the insoles, but still found nothing.

He sneered, put on his shoes, and pulled over a chair.

Everyone was surrounding Zheng Yuanyuan to ask for specific details when suddenly, a chair fell from a high altitude and hit the fat boy on the head.

After a few seconds of silence, screams broke out one after another.

The crowd dispersed.

It was the first time that Zheng Yuanyuan saw a human being's limbs twitching strangely like a fish out of water.

The fat man's head and face were covered in blood. The male student hit his head with a chair again and again. He didn't even whimper. He raised his hands and grabbed the air a few times before they fell down lifelessly.

There was no more movement.

The male student gasped for air, wiped the blood that had splattered on his face with his hand, and a hint of executioner's sneer appeared on his face: "If I kill you here, your consciousness will be trapped here forever and you won't wake up... If you can't wake up, who can still compete with me?"

He seemed to be blood-thirsty, his eyes scanning for the next prey.

The female student was stunned and ran away, shouting, "Are you crazy? You're wasting time killing us. Aren't you afraid that someone else will take the spot?!"

"Others?" The male student chuckled. "Do you think this situation won't happen in other rooms? The final test is just to see who can kill the fastest!"

He dragged the chair out of the room. The metal legs of the chair scraped against the floor tiles, making an unpleasant, piercing sound. It approached with each step, like a chain in the hand of a ghost demanding death.

The male student turned his head slightly and locked onto the class next door.

I don’t know who is hiding there. A dark head is exposed at the edge of the desk. In the silence, I can seem to hear his body trembling, causing the desk to rattle.

After the rubbing sound of the chairs stopped, the whole space was silent.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps was heard behind him. The hiding student turned his head slightly and was met with a bloody and brutal face.

ah--! ! !

A scream lifted everyone's head.

Zheng Yuanyuan covered her mouth tightly with her hands and couldn't help shivering. Tears as big as beans broke off the string and fell down desperately.

She hid in a cubicle in the girls' restroom, locked the door and bolted it. She knew that if she didn't hide, she would become the first target of the male students' attacks.

The unprecedented fear made her cry non-stop, but she dared not make a sound. She could only bite her lips tightly and curl up in the corner of the toilet.

After a burst of violent beating, the sound of pulling a chair was heard in the corridor again.

And getting closer.

What should I do—what should I do—what should I do?! The alarm bells in Zheng Yuanyuan's head were ringing like crazy. She knew that it was only a matter of time before she was discovered hiding here. Once the male student locked onto the place where someone was, he would definitely rush in and kill her without hesitation.

But she was powerless and ended up dying.

Zheng Yuanyuan whimpered softly, her whole body trembling unconsciously, as if she had fallen into a cold pond.

She pricked up her ears and listened to the noise outside. The male student seemed to have found his target again and was talking loudly with two voices.

"Hey! Everyone, stop hiding. Are you afraid that the four of us can't beat him alone? Come out and join us!" someone shouted.

Hearing that there was a desire to help each other, Zheng Yuanyuan quickly wiped her tears and stood up. However, as soon as she opened the toilet cubicle door, she heard a loud noise of tables and chairs falling to the ground.

She stopped and held her breath.

Immediately afterwards, the man's cries for mercy were heard outside the door. The voice that was uniting everyone just now suddenly changed its tone, and his voice was trembling with fear.

It seems that the male student is better.

Zheng Yuanyuan stood there with a pale face.

This time, she truly experienced what despair was.

She stared at the floor with a dull expression. When she heard the manic laughter of the male student outside the door, the thread in her brain suddenly snapped...

She smiled bitterly and raised her hand to gently stroke her abdomen which was still aching.

Tears fell silently, and her eyes were already dim. Zheng Yuanyuan opened the door and walked out like a zombie.

In the corridor, a body was lying in a pool of blood. The male student seemed tired of killing people and was enjoying another boy massaging his shoulders and legs.

Seeing Zheng Yuanyuan, the male student raised his eyebrows and said, "You know you're going to die sooner or later, so you come here to get some quick revenge?"

"..." Zheng Yuanyuan seemed not to hear him, she just glanced at him and ignored him.

The male student instantly flew into a rage. Just as he was about to stand up, the boy who was massaging his shoulders and legs suddenly grabbed him from behind and said, "Hurry, come and help me!"

Zheng Yuanyuan walked past them with an expressionless face, as if she was heading straight towards a destination.

Fortunately, the female student was still alive. When she heard the noise, she immediately brought out a bench to support them. After a lot of effort, the two of them finally managed to temporarily subdue the dangerous man.

The male student was pinned to the ground by a table and chairs, and he laughed viciously, "Even if you kill me, you still won't be able to get out if you can't find the strange thing! Let me tell you, I've hidden the strange thing! If you're smart, let me go quickly. Maybe I'll show mercy and take you out with me!"

The female student scoffed, "Let you go? Do you think we're stupid?! Hand over that weird thing right now, or I'll kill you!"

"If you kill me, you'll never find that piece of paper!" The male student laughed crazily.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Zheng Yuanyuan paused and her eyes flashed.

The boy had covered her mouth from behind and took the paper away. When she turned around, she saw him squatting on the ground, holding his stomach. Could it be...

She had touched that piece of paper. Although it looked like ordinary paper, the material was closer to plastic. It could not be torn or bitten, and it should be fine even if it came into contact with water.

Zheng Yuanyuan's mind suddenly became clear, and she turned around and walked back: "You ate that piece of paper, right?"

The boy's expression changed, but he still insisted, "How is that possible? I hid it in a safe place, and only I know about it! If you know what's good for you, let me go!"

"Let's give it a try," Zheng Yuanyuan insisted. With two people holding the boy's arms, she went around to his back, put her arms around him, and pressed her fists against his stomach.

The Heimlich maneuver is an essential skill for kindergarten teachers.

After a few squeezes, the boy lowered his head and vomited out a ball of paper.

The three of them looked disgusted: "..."

The female student smacked her lips and said, "Oh my god, I searched all over my body and couldn't find it. My feelings are hidden in my belly."

Zheng Yuanyuan frowned slightly as she picked up the paper ball, unfolded it to make sure it was correct, and then walked towards the man with the machete.

"Just wait for me! When I get out, I'm going to teach you a lesson!" The male student stared at Zheng Yuanyuan and said angrily.

Zheng Yuanyuan's mind was now completely filled with Yu Jiaojiao and her parents, and she had no intention of listening to what he was saying. After confirming with the female student that the strange thing could be destroyed with a knife, she unfolded the dirty diary paper and pressed hard against the tip of the machete.

The barrier was broken.

At the same time, at the assessment site.

The twelve places have been filled.

Just five minutes ago, there was movement in the green room. Six people woke up and walked onto the green field. The remaining three were still asleep. The four people in the white room and the two people in the yellow room plus these six people made exactly twelve.

Hearing the six people discussing something lively, Qi Mi couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen.

"I was so scared, I thought I couldn't get out."

"Yeah, luckily we had more people and we beat him to death."

"You're crazy! What's your idea? Is it just to destroy the position of Purification Officer?"

"That's right, at worst I can give it to him, but why would I kill him?"

…

She didn't hear what the people behind her said, as her attention was all drawn to He Kele next to her.

"It's over, the cute girl can't be my colleague anymore." He Kele seemed very disappointed. He looked at these people, then looked through the window at Zheng Yuanyuan who was still motionless, and sighed heavily.

Qi Mi turned his head and glanced meaningfully at the yellow room not far away, then curled his lips and said, "That's not necessarily true. There's still a chance."

"Really?" He Kele blinked suspiciously, "This person is already enough, how could there be another chance?"

Qi Mi waved his hand, asking the taller He Kele to lean over. "Haven't you noticed that no one in the yellow room has woken up yet? Those two came out twenty minutes earlier. Aren't you curious why none of the others have woken up? And you can see they're both clearly feeling guilty, their expressions are all unnatural."

He Kele observed for a moment and nodded: "Really."

At this moment, the sound of electricity echoing above the football field interrupted their conversation. Immediately afterwards, a strong male voice floated out, and he immediately asked the two men in the yellow room: "Please explain why the person in your room hasn't woken up yet?"

The two looked at each other, and one of them smiled awkwardly: "Maybe it's because... they've been awake for longer than us."

After hearing this reason, a few sneers were heard on the radio.

The two men lowered their heads, with the word "guilty" written on their faces.

"What do you two think this institution is? A kindergarten for kids?" The Purification Officer's furious voice could be heard through the microphone. "Do you think the institution can't detect whether you've entered or not? A smart person would know to wait until everyone else has emerged from the barrier before sneaking out, instead of running out like you're nothing, without even destroying the room's trickery, and standing here like nothing happened!"

The voice was so powerful and forceful that the two men immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "We're sorry, we were wrong! Please give us another chance!"

"The agency never likes fools, let alone those who are cunning and cunning! You two will be permanently blacklisted, and you don't need to come here again!"

“We know we were wrong!”

"Give us another chance! Please!"

The two men cried and begged for mercy, and their heads were bruised from hitting the green grass, which was enough to prove how strong the force was.

However, rules are rules, and after a while the agency ordered four purification officers to drag them out.

Watching the two struggling excitedly, Qi Mi raised an eyebrow: "It's just a purification officer position, what's the big deal?"

She had been mumbling to herself, but unexpectedly, He Kele next to her responded, "Of course! Purification Officers, they're heroes who save the world and protect humanity. Just ask those young people these days, who isn't desperate to join the organization? Otherwise, why would those people just now risk their lives so much? Look, they've cut my arm so many times."

Qi Mi subconsciously glanced at her arm, still finding it incredible: "People in this world want to become Purification Officers, all for the purpose of protecting humanity?"

So selfless and dedicated?

He Kele smiled and shrugged. "That's just the official answer. I don't know about others, but I'm attracted to the Purification Officers because they have high salaries, flexible work hours, and excellent looks. Most importantly, they also provide you with free, large houses to live in!"

Qi smiled knowingly. She guessed that 80% of people had the same idea.

Bang!

A loud noise broke the silence on the field.

There were sounds of fighting coming from the blue room.

Qi Mi ran to the window and through the glass, she saw Zheng Yuanyuan fighting with a man.

Just a minute ago, Zheng Yuanyuan woke up and was about to open the door to go out, but her loose hair was immediately grabbed by a man in gray clothes, who then slammed her head to the ground.

"There are four women and three men in this room. I killed three women in the barrier, so the girl who woke up must be the one I'm looking for!" The man laughed grimly, "You still want to get out? Dream on!"

Zheng Yuanyuan remained silent, clutching the man's arms tightly with both hands, trying to break free.

Qi Mi's eyes suddenly became stern, his face darkened, he walked around to the door of the room and kicked it, and suddenly there was a loud explosion that shook the entire open space.

Seeing that the door didn't open, she took a half step back, stretched her neck, and was about to kick again when the overhead broadcast calmly stopped her: "If this candidate intends to violate the exam rules, please leave."

Qi Mi sneered, not listening at all, and kicked again without hesitation.

However, at this moment the blue room suddenly opened, and her feet missed her and fell to the ground.

Looking up, the man in gray clothes suddenly fell to the ground for some reason. A boy dressed as a student and wearing black-framed glasses helped the frightened Zheng Yuanyuan out.

Her whole body was trembling, and even when Qi Mi touched her, she shrank for a moment. Her hair was disheveled, and her almond-shaped eyes looked innocent and pitiful, which made people's hearts writhe.

Zheng Yuanyuan slowly raised her head. The tears she had been holding back for so long finally burst out the moment they touched Qi Mi. She hugged Qi Mi tightly, crying breathlessly: "Teacher Qi... I thought... I would never see you again..."
