Chapter 39

Money? Money?

Shen Yunzhe was silent for a moment.

He hesitated for a long time, as if considering something, before finally speaking seriously, "Although I didn't ask you to consider you as forcing a sale, but... are you going to leave your contact information so I can transfer the money?"

Li Yiluan also fell silent. He looked at Shen Yunzhe for a moment before speaking, "Are you kidding me?"

"No." Shen Yunzhe said: "I can accept online communication"

"Is it possible that I was joking with you?" Li Yuluan added.

Shen Yunzhe stood there in a daze. After a moment, he sat down in his original position and began to think. He actually wanted to have more friends, even if they came from the game field.

[Don't forget the forensic scam.] The system reminded him.

So Shen Yunzhe became depressed.

Li Yuluan reached out to pull him up.

"You're definitely not doing it right. Everyone's very nervous right now. Don't provoke them. At least act normal."

"Oh..." Shen Yunzhe answered reluctantly.

He was actually fine, and didn't have any big feelings. He just couldn't adapt to this "introverted and socially anxious" personality. Although Shen Yunzhe grew up in an orphanage, he was definitely not an introvert. He liked chatting with strangers and dared to walk around the streets with his baby in his arms.

All the isotopes that had been synchronized with him before did not have a particularly big impact on him, except for codename Hope and codename Sleeper.

These two are truly uncontrollable, even their thoughts have been assimilated, and their behavior is extremely abnormal, but for Shen Yunzhe, he is addicted to this abnormality and does not feel too much pain.

But this code-named music composer is different.

Shen Yunzhe could clearly feel the dulling of his thinking when interacting with others. It was not that his brain could not work, but that it was really difficult for him to interact with outsiders. He could not express it and could only suppress it in his heart. Shen Yunzhe felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to speak out loudly like before but could not.

Crazy, this is really crazy.

He got up from the ground and followed Li Yuluan to the large group in front. This time they wanted to thoroughly explore the faculty building, hoping to find some information about the female student jumping off the building and the teacher injuring people with weapons.

Shen Yunzhe followed behind and was not very willing to hang out with the people in front. Fortunately, he did not show any resistance. This shows that although he has social anxiety, the code-named music creator is a person who can do things seriously.

They entered the faculty building, but it was not much more complicated than the teaching building. It was also empty, with no paper materials left. There were only some messy test papers left in the cabinets, not to mention any information or materials.

"What's going on? There's nothing here." Lu Shun frowned and looked around. "Look, there's no clue here."

Bi Jiayin and the others looked at Shen Yunzhe, "Shen Yunzhe, does the photo you found say what grade and class they are in? Does it include their names?"

Shen Yunzhe shook his head, "Nothing, just a few words."

"What are you talking about?"

The question was asked too hastily, and Shen Yunzhe felt uncomfortable. This discomfort was simply because he was not used to such rapid inquiries.

"Student Yin committed suicide. She was my study committee member and we had a very good relationship. I know she wouldn't have committed suicide so casually. I have to find out why she committed suicide. I will never let you suffer any injustice."

Shen Yunzhe repeated the contents of the photo in full.

"The surname is Yin." Everyone present frowned. "Apart from that, there's really nothing else?"

Everyone fell silent. Shen Yunzhe looked at them and finally couldn't help but whisper, "Do you want to try to find the principal's office? Or the notebooks that students can leave behind, or the campus forum in the computer room?"

Shen Yunzhe said, "Don't you think that such a serious news as a student jumping off a building to commit suicide would have already spread like wildfire among the students in the school?"

"Computer room?" Lu Shun was shocked.

Shen Yunzhe whispered, "Don't you guys secretly go online during computer class?"

Li Yiluan, the only one who had never been to school, said, "Then one of us should go to the computer room and the other should go to the student dormitory to look for notebooks. We should split into two groups so that there are more people."

"Since you say so, then you can go to the computer room with him." Lu Shun seemed to be quite displeased with Shen Yunzhe. "Find someone else, and the three of you can go together. The computer room isn't that big, so three people are enough."

Li Yuluan neither agreed nor refused. He glanced at Lu Shun with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Bei Chuanchuan still remembered that Li Yilun tried to pull her before she died, though he didn't hold her tight. "Okay, Li Yilun and I will accompany Shen Yunzhe to the computer lab, and you guys will go to the dorms. We'll meet at the flag-raising platform in front of the teaching building, just like before."

The matter was settled, and the others didn't say anything, and just went their separate ways.

Lu Shun snorted and was the first to turn and leave.

Shen Yunzhe watched him leave, then turned and asked in a low voice, "Did I offend him in any way? He seems to hate me."

"It has nothing to do with you. He just doesn't like everyone." Bei Chuanchuan was not going to indulge Lu Shun. "I've seen a lot of people like him. They think people who are not as good as him are trash, and they ridicule people who are better than him. It's unfair. They complain about everything like a clown."

"You hit two of his spots. You're a newcomer to the game field, and you're a forensic doctor who's clearly better than him but resigned. And that's why he started to act so sarcastic."

Li Yiluan nodded in agreement.

"Why are you nodding?" Bei Chuanchuan looked at him strangely.

Li Yiluan went from being a cool guy to being weird again. "I saw his fate, and it's the same as you said."

Bei Chuanchuan:...?

Shen Yunzhe reminded her quietly, "Li Yilun's job is to tell fortunes."

"It's really unexpected." Bei Chuanchuan sighed.

The computer room is in the experimental building, in the same place as the music classroom and art classroom, and is connected to the teaching building.

It was quite strange that the computers in the computer room had not been moved away. They were all left in their original places, looking old. Li Yuluan tried to turn on the light to make sure that there was still electricity. He walked over and turned on the demonstration computer on the podium, and unexpectedly found that there seemed to be internet, but this network could not access other places, only the campus forum.

Because they are not logged in, many things are not open and they can only see some campus bulletin boards.

"It's the game field's limitation. They only give us this much permission." Bei Chuanchuan said, "Then let's start trying now."

Bei Chuanchuan looked at the rows of old-fashioned computers in the classroom and asked, "Try to see which one has logged into the campus forum account and has not logged out."

Shen Yunzhe sighed. He walked to the window side and started to restart the computer from the beginning. He turned on the host and a startup sound came from the computer. But surprisingly, it was not the startup sound they were familiar with, but another familiar music. The three people present stiffened for a moment.

Li Yuluan and Bei Chuanchuan looked at the computer under Shen Yunzhe in horror.

Shen Yunzhe stood up, and they just stood there waiting for the music to fade away and the computer to turn on.

After a moment, Shen Yunzhe looked at them and said, "Well, there wouldn't be any horror or supernatural legends in a normal school computer room, right?"

"Yes." Bei Chuanchuan said: "Ghost online love."

"That would have to be a college student. This is still a high school." Shen Yunzhe retorted uncertainly, "I don't think so. Besides, aren't computer classes in high schools basically divided up? They only come to two classes when exams are approaching."

"It seems so."

Li Yuluan looked at them. He had no idea about such topics since he had no experience in school.

So Shen Yunzhe continued to check the forum, and Bei Chuanchuan also turned on the computer over there, and the same startup music came out.

"Thump, thump, thump." Shen Yunzhe listened to the music and repeated it softly in his mouth.

"Isn't this their school song?"

No one answered him, and Shen Yunzhe didn't care. He just kept looking it up while muttering to himself, "The melody of this song is simple and bright, more energetic than pop music. It's very suitable for a school song. It shouldn't just be a melody, it also has lyrics."

"The probability of it being the school song is over 80%."

Now the two finally came to their senses and looked at Shen Yunzhe in surprise.

"Can you tell this is the school song?"

"Because of the unique tune, of course I can tell. Many song genres have their own unique characteristics." Shen Yunzhe didn't even look up. If the first computer didn't have the song, he opened the second one. It was the same familiar tune, and he sang it again. He continued, "I can even guess the general lyrics, but it's just based on experience."

As soon as the topic of songs came up, Shen Yunzhe began to talk freely, without any trace of social anxiety at all.

Some people are like this. Once they enter their professional field, they begin to shine and turn from socially anxious people into social terrorists.

Li Yiluan and Bei Chuanchuan looked at each other.

"The forensic doctor also studies the school song?"

"Isn't this thing very simple? Do we need to study it specifically?" Shen Yunzhe looked at them doubtfully, "We can figure it out by listening to a few more songs, right?"

No, no one can tell that a piece of music is the school song just by listening to it a few times.

"Let's look for the forum first." Li Yiluan changed the subject. "Let's put the school song issue aside. The most important thing now is to find clues."

There were three rows of computers, with three people in each row. They opened them one by one to check. Each computer used the same startup music. They listened to it over and over again, and felt that their minds were full of this music. They kept trying until Bei Chuanchuan in the back row shouted.

“Got it!”

They hurried over, Bei Chuanchuan opened the campus forum and started reading the posts.

The reply date of the post was three months ago, and it seemed to have been abandoned. It also seemed that the content of the post had been cleaned up. All they could see were normal discussions between students.

"That's not right. How can it be so peaceful?" Bei Chuanchuan said, "For such a big thing, is there a teacher watching over and deleting every post?"

"How about searching for keywords?" Shen Yunzhe suggested.

So they searched from suicide to jumping from a building, from murder to death, from supernatural legends to school rumors, and finally they gave up and searched for a senior schoolmate.

This time, they saw something.

"A certain *senior sister, do you know why she left?"

Original Poster: I heard it was because her boyfriend let her down? Is that true?

[It's just a rumor, but you actually dare to ask this question here. Aren't you afraid of getting your account blocked? ]

OP: This is a small account, I will use a secret code quietly.

[We're both in the same senior year of high school. I've never heard of her having any romantic relationships. She's the representative for Chinese, has excellent grades, and is a good student. I've never heard of her dating anyone.]

[I also heard that her academic performance declined and she was scolded by her parents, so she was depressed for a while.]

[That's impossible. She ranked tenth in the school on the mock exam, which is better than her previous scores.]

Why is that?

It's just strange that no one knows why. She had good grades in school and was well-liked by her teachers. She reportedly came from a good family, had many friends, and hadn't been bullied at school. So, how could she suddenly...? No one knows the reason, no matter how hard they try.

"That's enough information." Bei Chuanchuan said, "A senior high school student who ranked tenth in the mock exam. She's a girl named Yin."

"We need to find the transcripts for the most recent mock exams."

They left the computer room immediately. Just as they walked out of the classroom door, they heard a click and the music suddenly sounded. They were startled and turned around to see that all the computers they had turned on in the computer room were shutting down spontaneously. The music kept overlapping and combined into an extremely high volume.

The screens began to go black one by one, and they felt something was wrong almost instantly.

"Go!" Li Yiluan shouted, "Get out of here!"

No one dared to look back, and Bei Chuanchuan also ran very fast. They ran towards the light. Because it was their first time in this school, someone died on the first day and they didn't fully understand the location of this school. When they reacted, they found that they had run along the corridor into the teaching building.

The teaching building was not quiet either. The song that Shen Yunzhe said was the school song was still playing, with the sound of birds singing in it.

"It's the bird in the hall," Shen Yunzhe judged. "Birds have different timbre than humans."

"Now isn't the time to judge the tone. Last time we heard this song, people started dying." Bei Chuanchuan grabbed his hair. "It's over, it's not going to happen again, is it? Let's hurry to the gathering place and wait for everyone!"

I quickly rushed down the teaching building, and when I arrived at the hall, I saw the bird singing.

It cried out again, its mouth full of blood, and the tearing sound mixed with the music.

Shen Yunzhe looked at the bird. He was now very sensitive to sounds. He even felt that he could hear the emotions in the voices.

This strange bird seemed to be afraid, and its blood-crying song was full of panic.

What is it afraid of?

The bird flapped its wings, chirped and pecked at the cage next to it. Shen Yunzhe turned his head to look over there, and at that moment his eyes suddenly widened.

"What is that?!" Shen Yunzhe's voice imitated the chirping of birds.

Li Yiluan and Bei Chuanchuan subconsciously looked towards the location Shen Yunzhe mentioned, and saw a man in security uniform clawing at the wall. But this time he did not fill the wall with bricks, but took the bricks down one by one and stuffed them into the cart next to him.

It was the security guard that Lu Shun saw, the security guard who killed Lu Shun and sealed him in the wall.

As if hearing their voices, the security guard turned around and looked at them. He gave a weird smile and ran away pushing a cart full of bricks the next moment.

"What should we do?" Bei Chuanchuan obviously didn't want to follow him. "Why don't we just ignore it? This thing can't be handled casually."

Without asking for their opinions, Shen Yunzhe ran out directly, and Li Yuluan didn't have time to catch him.

Li Yiluan quickly said, "Bei Chuanchuan, go to the meeting point and wait for us first. Shen Yunzhe and I will go and take a look."

After saying that, Li Yiluan hurriedly followed him.

Shen Yunzhe ran after the security guard, but he could no longer see the security guard when he ran out of the side door of the teaching building. The sound of birds was still ringing in the teaching building, and they were still chirping in fear, as if something else was going to happen. Shen Yunzhe looked around, and finally his eyes fixed on the top floor of the dormitory building.

Li Yiluan happened to catch up. "Where do you want to go? Don't you know it's dangerous?"

"Dormitory building, rooftop!" Shen Yunzhe looked at the rooftop with panic in his eyes, "Lan Sicheng!"

Li Yiluan raised his head and saw Lan Sicheng standing on the rooftop of the dormitory building. The wind blew up her beige coat. They watched Lan Sicheng fall from the roof. Even if they were not there, they could imagine the scene. After all, they had seen it last time.

"Lu Shun." Shen Yunzhe spoke again, "The security guard, Lu Shun."

He ran towards the dormitory building. The birdsong behind him stopped, the sharp and terrifying music dissipated, and finally only dead silence remained.

It’s like the scary things have disappeared and everything that was supposed to happen is over.

Bi Jiayin and Yuan Jing were standing next to Lan Sicheng's body in front of the female dormitory. They didn't know what they were thinking. When they saw Shen Yunzhe and the others coming, Shen Yunzhe passed them and rushed into the dormitory building before they could say a word. Li Yuluan ignored them and followed him.

There is a pile of bricks at the door of the bathroom on the first floor of the female dormitory building. The bricks look like they have just been removed from the wall and are still covered with concrete.

Shen Yunzhe squatted down to pick up bricks on the ground, and Li Yuluan also came to help. Just after picking up a dozen bricks, they saw the pale wrist and the famous watch on the wrist.

Lu Shun is below.
