Chapter 11 Another day without any news. Guess what she's doing?

Leaning against the wall, Gu Nanqiu looked down at the floor, lost in thought.

Beneath his jet-black eyelashes, his brown eyes shone brightly, and his expression was serious.

Yue Yiyue looked at Zhang Yang, who had already entered the classroom, and asked, "Do you think there's something wrong with her?"

"Hmm?" Gu Nanqiu snapped out of her thoughts. "She didn't mention Wang Yong just now, did she?"

"I want to confirm that there were only the two of us in that classroom at the time, so only the two of us witnessed Wang Yong's death."

The thought of that bloody scene sent a chill down Gu Nanqiu's spine.

She instinctively crossed her arms: "Zhang Yang mentioned everyone, but she didn't mention Wang Yong at all. She also said that she only arrived today."

Following Gu Nanqiu's train of thought, Yue Yiyue belatedly realized that something was amiss with what Zhang Yang had just said.

According to the setup, they were all classmates, so it was impossible for everyone to be mentioned, but only Wang Yong was mentioned.

Did they know he had an accident?

"No matter what, I still need to remain vigilant towards them." Gu Nanqiu rubbed her face wearily, then forced a smile at Yue Yiyue: "It seems like you're the only one I can trust in this place."

Her voice was soft, and her words carried a hint of probing.

"Yes."

"just me."

Faced with such a smile, Yue Yiyue found it hard to say no to Gu Nanqiu. His somewhat muddled mind struggled to move, then he suddenly snapped out of it.

She was acting strangely from the moment she met Gu Nanqiu.

Don't let the fact that someone is beautiful make you lose your judgment and just do whatever they say.

Yue Yiyue secretly reprimanded Zhang Yang for being so engrossed in women that he hadn't considered the flaws in Zhang Yang's words, until Gu Nanqiu brought it up.

"I didn't hear some of what Zhang Yang said just now. I'll go over it with you when we get back tonight." Yue Yiyue smiled shyly and fidgeted with the hem of his clothes a little awkwardly.

"Was it because I slept with you last night that you didn't sleep well? Or was it because the things in the classroom today were too disgusting?" Noticing that Yue Yiyue had been somewhat absent-minded since this morning.

Even so, she still instinctively protected herself just now.

Regarding what he saw, he simply said, "The squad leader is dead. His death was rather ugly, but thankfully, it wasn't as shocking as Wang Yong's death."

Mingming was so scared when she saw Wang Yong that her legs went weak and she could only hold him in her arms.

Only one day has passed.

Gu Nanqiu thought to herself that she should also try her best to keep up with Yue Yiyue's pace and not hold her back.

With only three minutes left before class started, the two returned to the classroom one after the other.

The school bell rings for a few minutes.

The teacher, wearing a black jacket, walked in carrying two red books.

She scanned the entire class and tapped on the desk: "There were two fatal incidents today, so students should be careful."

Normally we can turn a blind eye, but if we scare people away, it will be troublesome when that person gets angry.

It was so difficult to lure those few idiots into the trap.

The teacher snapped out of her thoughts and announced expressionlessly that the previous class monitor had been removed from the class and that a new class monitor would be elected in the next few days.

She subconsciously looked at Gu Nanqiu, who was sitting upright and staring intently at her.

A sense of joy welled up from the depths of her heart, and the teacher's expression changed: "Nanqiu, you don't need to work so hard copying notes. If you're interested in the position of class monitor, you can come to the academic affairs office after class."

Gu Nanqiu was a little surprised to be called on suddenly. She looked down at the contents of her notebook, thanked the teacher, closed the notebook, and pondered.

The people around him all had their own agendas. Curious glances kept falling on Gu Nanqiu, some with flattery, others with expectation.

At the very center of the vortex, Gu Nanqiu bit her lip, deep in thought, seemingly oblivious to the rustling sounds around her.

Yue Yiyue, who was sitting in the back, noticed that Fan Ning, unlike the other students, was not staring at Gu Nanqiu, but was looking at him several times.

Although she didn't understand what was wrong, she still managed a friendly smile.

Upon seeing the bright white smile, Fanning flinched for a moment before burying her head back into her book.

Yue Yiyue glanced at the blackboard.

To become class monitor, one needs to obtain two-thirds of the class's votes.

This should be a piece of cake for Gu Nanqiu.

But the main point is, what benefits will becoming a class monitor bring when we go out into the world?

If becoming class monitor actually restricts your abilities, then it's not worth it.

Another one is about Zhang Yang.

What role does she play in this school?

Fanning, who was bullied...

The boring class continued, and Yue Yiyue, who was idly writing half of the "53" practice book on the table, noticed that his pen was out of ink.

She casually tossed the pen onto the table and bent down to rummage through her desk for a ballpoint pen.

Her fingers suddenly touched something, she took it out, and was stunned.

"Yue Yiyue, what's wrong?" His deskmate's voice rang out at just the right moment. Yue Yiyue put away the note without changing his expression.

"It's nothing, my pen just stopped writing, can I borrow one?"

————

A day here doesn't pass by quickly, but because Yue Yiyue came from an orphanage, he cherishes this opportunity all the more.

He rummaged through the YiX in his desk again and again, and then found the library reading room during his free time.

Gu Nanqiu is doing alright; she's gotten used to this kind of life, though she occasionally feels disoriented.

Even though the college entrance exam is over, I've been dragged back to study again!

That's outrageous.

At that moment, she especially longed to go back to her wonderful university life...

At this point, Yue Yiyue would come over, pat her on the shoulder, and say dryly, "I'll be back soon."

But both of them knew they were completely confused about what was going on here, and they even had to observe whether Zhang Yang was a friend or foe.

After returning to the dormitory after dinner, Yue Yiyue first analyzed Zhang Yang's identity, suspecting that Zhang Yang had received the bullied card.

Wang Yong, who has already passed away, should also be included.

The original text mentions this, and the note I just pulled out also provides a reminder.

Although it's unknown who left it, the bright red writing on it reads: "More than one victim of bullying!!! Quick... run!!!"

When Yue Yiyue saw the note, his first reaction was to hand it to Gu Nanqiu.

But the second sentence on the page reads, "Don't become the class monitor."

The plot has deviated from the original work, and Yue Yiyue dares not blindly believe what she read. One wrong step leads to another. She needs to live and wait for the day she can go back.

The note inexplicably appeared in my desk.

In addition, there was a small key...

When she gets back, she should check the lock first. If it really is the locked cabinet in the dormitory, she should tell Gu Nanqiu. She can't just tell someone without confirming anything.

Gu Nanqiu pondered the possibility of Yue Yiyue's words: "So, does that mean Zhao Heyi is using the bully's identity card?"

So where is he now?

Were they brought in in batches?

What is the connection between Wang Yong's death and him?

A faint knocking sound rang out, the arrival of an uninvited guest disrupting their thoughts.

"Who is it?" Gu Nanqiu asked the person outside as she walked to the door.

"It's me, Fan Ning. I'm sorry, could I... disturb you tonight?"

The door opened, and Fan Ning, soaking wet, appeared before the two of them.

She looked miserable, trembling with her arms crossed.

It's summer now, but suddenly pouring a bucket of water down, and then being blown by the evening breeze, can be quite unpleasant.

Gu Nanqiu quickly pushed the person into the bathroom and took out a new towel from the cabinet.

Yue Yiyue then went to the wardrobe to get some clean clothes to change into.

Twenty minutes later, Fan Ning emerged from the bathroom, her eyes red and steaming. She stood on the balcony, looking somewhat lost.

"I'm sorry... but I really have nowhere else to go."

"The girl in my dorm was so forced by them that she threw all the blankets off my bed."

"She reminded me that if someone as lowly as me stayed in this class, they would execute me sooner or later."

When Fan Ning uttered the words "execution," the tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally fell.

“I’m really scared. You saved me before, maybe you have a way to get me out of here.”

Gu Nanqiu led the person to her bed and gently comforted her, telling her not to be afraid or worry.

A moment later, Gu Nanqiu led Yue Yiyue outside the dormitory.

She glanced hesitantly at the person inside the door.

"Do you want her to stay in our dorm?" Yue Yiyue guessed Gu Nanqiu's thoughts, and she lowered her voice to make sure the people in the room couldn't hear her.

"I'm not sure if she's friend or foe, so there's an element of gambling involved."

"Hmm... but I'm still a little worried about just letting it go like this, and do you remember what that murder mystery game script said?"

camp.

If Fanning was indeed bullied, then they were on the same side.

But it doesn't say that people in the same camp can't be enemies.

It didn't say whether the identity could be changed.

If Fanning could escape the identity of being bullied, I believe she would be very willing to do so.

Silence spread between the two.

Gu Nanqiu thought about many things, such as what impact this decision would have on Yue Yiyue.

Will something bad happen tonight?

"Let's go check her dorm first. If it's really as they say, then let her stay. But we'll sleep together tonight, and you can sleep on the inside." Gu Nanqiu thought for a moment. If it really was as Fan Ning said, and she had nowhere to go at night and was murdered, then she might feel guilty for the rest of her life.

"You can sleep inside."

Yue Yiyue had anticipated Gu Nanqiu's decision, and she understood that Gu Nanqiu knew the consequences of this choice but didn't say much.

"Just tell her we'll go back to her dorm with her to find some clean clothes to change into, and if she's willing, she can stay in our dorm—"

"Sleep in my bed." Gu Nanqiu looked at Yue Yiyue somewhat embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, although this request may be a bit unreasonable, I still hope you can take me in."

Gu Nanqiu peeked into the dormitory, then leaned on Yue Yiyue's shoulder and whispered, "Yiyue, I'm actually a little bit of a germaphobe. I don't really like people coming near my bed. Can you keep this a secret for me? When we were little, some classmates misunderstood that I was disgusted by them."

“When they found out, they always tried to put their scent on my things so they could take them without any qualms.”

Gu Nanqiu said with some distress, "Good leap, I don't want this to happen here, after all, they seem even crazier."
