Chapter 28
Yitu didn't know whether the school schedule was random or deliberately arranged.
After all, the club card field represents luck and accidents. Under the fixed rules, randomness cannot be directly avoided.
But he didn't expect that this coincidence would happen to him so soon.
Shi Ling is a student who loves to cheat. Once he enters the examination room, he will inevitably trigger the death condition.
The second day at this card game was not easy.
After the math test, there is a Chinese class in the afternoon, and I'm afraid there will be a new teacher then.
I just don't know if it's a human or a ghost.
At 16:50, after the bell rang, the classroom door lock popped out automatically.
The NPC students packed up their textbooks and left the classroom one after another without staying for long.
Soon there were only twelve card players left in the classroom, each with their own plans.
Yitu glanced out the window. It was not even five o'clock yet, but the sky was already terribly dark, and the thick black clouds made it hard to breathe.
It was originally time for dinner, but the cafeteria was closed at night.
Master Zhu said that they only have one meal a day and can't eat more.
Yi Tu and Jiang Hanyu held up their invisible wings, and the snow fell sparsely, leaving a series of footprints on the ground.
In addition to teaching buildings, canteens and dormitories, the school also has a library and a small theater.
Behind the small theater is a 400-meter playground, and a gymnasium is also built nearby.
What surprised Yitu the most was that the school actually built a baseball field.
You should know that baseball is not a popular sport in China, but in countries like the United States, baseball fields are a must-build project.
It is obvious that this school is moving towards internationalization. Simply put, it is an aristocratic school.
Although covered by black snow, all kinds of buildings exude a sense of desolation and decadence.
But the facilities and buildings of this school are definitely one of the best private schools in the city, and only the richest families can attend.
Ye Li and her daughter were so poor, how did they get into the school?
Especially since the little girl's leg was bitten by the dog, she might be lame.
The school library is very large, but the door is closed.
Without the key, they can't get in.
The small theater is much more interesting. Unlike the library, it does not require a key to open, but it does require a ticket to enter.
There is a gate machine at the entrance of the theater that automatically detects tickets. Only after scanning can they enter the theater.
Yitu looked at it with interest for a while. There was a bulletin board at the door.
It says the campus situation drama "Snowy Night", and the performance time is 9:00-11:00 in the morning and 2:00-4:00 in the afternoon, only on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
That is to say, the performance will last for a total of three days starting from the day the players enter the game.
If the performance is over, even if players find the tickets, they will be useless.
Yitu found it very interesting. There were so many mysteries hidden in this card field.
They had no clues about the tickets to the theater or the keys to the library.
Including the most important one that the game requires to be completed, the love letter that Ye Li wrote to his secret crush Pei Ze.
After it was completely dark, Yi Tu and Jiang Hanyu arrived at the student dormitory building.
There are three dormitory buildings in this school, and the shorter one is the teachers' dormitory.
The only dormitory building with lights on now is where the players will stay tonight.
They didn't arrive too late, and several players had just arrived.
Yi Tu looked up and saw that Ji Han and Zheng Xiuxiu looked like they were temporarily together. A man and a woman came in right behind them. They were Mu Cheng and his little white rabbit Xitao.
After the few people met, no one paid any attention to each other, and their faces were as cold as strangers.
Apart from the little white rabbit Xitao, she smiled friendly at Yitu and Jiang Hanyu, with a hint of politeness and shyness in her eyes.
The former nodded slightly, while the latter was so indifferent that she didn't even give him a glance. However, she was not angry either. She just paused her gaze on the man for a few seconds.
Zheng Xiuxiu curled her lips and rolled her eyes silently.
Yitu didn't see any of this. He was standing at the window of the dormitory management office, where an aunt in a dark blue uniform was sitting.
On the wall behind her were rows of dormitory keys.
He was just considering what to say, but the dormitory manager just glanced at him calmly, then turned around, took a key from the wall and handed it to him.
She looked at everyone and said impatiently:
"The dormitory door is locked at 9 o'clock sharp. No one will be waiting after you arrive. Go to bed at 9:30 and turn off the lights. No extra movements are allowed except for sleeping."
"All of you come here and get the keys."
Yitu made way after taking the key. The key in his hand was covered with a piece of tape with their dormitory number marked on it.
His dormitory is 304, which should be on the third floor.
When Jiang Hanyu also took the key, Yitu came forward to take a look.
What a coincidence, they happened to share a room.
"It's fate." Yitu smiled awkwardly.
Jiang Hanyu smiled wryly, "Why, you don't want to stay in the same room with me?"
"How can that be?" Yitu groaned, as if he had a toothache.
In fact, I feel uncomfortable all over, and it always feels weird to be with a man.
When everyone got their keys and went upstairs, they realized that this dormitory building was mixed for both sexes.
The third floor and below are all boys' dormitories, and the fourth floor and above are all girls' dormitories. There are five floors in total.
At the staircase entrance where men and women meet, there is an iron gate that prohibits entry and will be locked by the dormitory manager when the time is up.
Ji Han and Zheng Xiuxiu did not draw the same dormitory, but the little white rabbit Xitao was in the same room with Zheng Xiuxiu.
So when he went upstairs, Yi Tu heard Zheng Xiuxiu discussing changing dormitories with Ji Han.
"Squad leader, can I switch dorms with you? I want a room to myself, it's awkward to live with two people."
Ji Han was obviously stunned for a moment, and although he spoke very politely, he still refused:
"If this were outside, I would switch with you...but I'm afraid something might happen in this card room. Can you bear with it?"
The two of them did not hide their voices from others. After all, the stairwell was so small that they could not hide their voices.
Not only Yitu heard it clearly, but Xitao, who lived in the same dormitory with her, also heard it clearly.
"Sister, I sleep very quietly and won't disturb anyone, don't worry." She hesitated for a moment, then started to explain.
"Don't come on, don't try to identify me as a relative right away."
Ji Han disagreed, and Zheng Xiuxiu had no choice but to stride up to the fourth floor impatiently.
Xi Tao was stunned for a moment, and then a look of embarrassment and grievance appeared on her face.
As they were all girls, she could naturally feel Zheng Xiuxiu's inexplicable hostility towards her.
Ji Han thought about it and felt that it was necessary to say something:
"Don't mind that Xi Tao. She just has that kind of temper. She's not targeting you on purpose."
Xitao bit her lip, not knowing what she was thinking.
It was not until Mu Cheng patted her shoulder comfortingly that Yi Tu didn't know what he said in the little white rabbit's ear, and Xi Tao finally stopped feeling uncomfortable and went up to the fourth floor obediently.
"Still watching?"
Jiang Hanyu took a few steps forward, but the person behind him was slow to catch up.
He couldn't help but frown and turned back to urge him, and Yi Tu then slowly followed this difficult master.
The two people's dormitory is at the end of the corridor on the third floor, just around the corner.
Yitu watched Mucheng walk up the corridor and was a little curious about who he shared a dormitory with.
But Jiang Hanyu had already entered Room 304, so he could only visit again later.
The boys' dormitory is a four-person room with clean and tidy beds and desks underneath. Each dormitory has its own independent toilet and bathroom, and the conditions are quite good.
Yitu was quite satisfied. At least he could take a shower in this shabby place.
Even though he didn't touch anything, he felt uncomfortable if he didn't wash for a day.
There is a cleaning duty roster posted behind the dormitory door, which is probably what the school requires students to write down and post.
Yitu looked around and realized who the two remaining students in the dormitory were.
It was Pan Hua and Liu Ziyi who died in the classroom and cafeteria during the day. Their bed numbers were two and three respectively.
He was in bed number one and Jiang Hanyu was in bed number four. After arranging them counterclockwise, their beds were actually side by side opposite each other.
Yitu walked to the table corresponding to him and sat down. He opened the drawer and looked through it. It was full of useless comics, magazines and books.
What surprised him was that there were also several large-scale pornographic comics mixed in.
Is it necessary for this game to reproduce the life of contemporary high school students so realistically?
He tutted softly, not wanting to look up at the man's situation, and couldn't help laughing.
At this time, Jiang Hanyu's white and slender fingers were only holding a CD, and on the CD was a sticker of a busty woman.
This turned out to be a pornographic disc.
In the end, he laughed too much, and the man glanced at him coldly with an expressionless face.
Yitu then calmed down a bit, coughed lightly but couldn't help but teased:
"That's what good brothers do."
"I buy pornographic comics, you hide pornographic discs, we're all pornographic."
If static is not enough, dynamic will make up for it.
As soon as he finished speaking, the yellow disc in Jiang Hanyu's hand was crushed into two pieces on the spot.
Yi Tu really stopped laughing now. He closed the drawer and found a lot of cheat sheets on the shelf of the desk.
The palm-sized note was filled with densely packed small characters.
All these cheat sheets were placed in a special small box. It seemed that Shi Ling could only feel a brief sense of security by cheating before the exam.
After leaving his seat, Yitu opened Liu Ziyi's drawer.
It was a bit surprising but not surprising that Liu Ziyi's drawer was full of snacks.
From spicy duck necks to wafer biscuits, there is everything you need to satisfy your hunger.
Liu Ziyi is a gluttonous student, so it makes sense that his dormitory is filled with snacks.
If the player who draws Liu Ziyi's identity can endure hunger until night, he will not die.
The snacks in the dormitory were enough to fill his stomach.
But none of them is a prophet who can predict these things early on.
To some extent, Liu Ziyi's death was not accidental, but inevitable.
When Pan Hua opened his drawer, he found several packs of unopened cigarettes and a strange diary.
Yitu raised his eyebrows slightly. It was rare to see a grown boy writing in a diary.
The character of Pan Hua is slightly different from others.
Yitu casually opened the diary and saw a lot of cartoon characters drawn in it. It seemed that they were just the products of killing time when he was bored in class.
But if that were really the case, Pan Hua wouldn't have to take the diary back to the dormitory and put it away.
Yitu then flipped through the pages, and sure enough, the person behind it was no longer an anime character, but a female student in the class.
The girl had a ponytail and sat upright. Although Pan Hua's drawing was a bit sloppy, one could still make out the girl's pretty and straight profile.
Yitu found it interesting, and he looked up at the man sitting not far away.
"Who do you think this painting is of?"
Yitu spread the diary on Jiang Hanyu's desk and tapped the yellow paper with his clean fingertips.
The man took a quick glance and said, "No impression."
Yitu was not surprised to hear this answer.
Up to now, he himself has not recognized all the forty or so students in the class, except the three who died.
Yitu flipped the diary to the back, where there were sketches of the little girl in various scenes.
Some were standing on the podium writing, some were chatting and laughing during breaks, and some were doing exercises during physical education class on the playground.
The character of Pan Hua is not only talented, but also a little bit introverted and perverted.
He wrote a lot of his own fantasies in the blank spaces of these sketches, most of which were difficult to read, and Yi Tu frowned deeply when he saw them.
On the last page of the diary, the sketch of the girl did not appear again. Instead, there was a passage of angry curses that vented the inner feelings.
[Zheng Xiuxiu, that bitch! I was such a fucking sucker. I listened to everything she said and did everything for her, but in the end, she said she liked Pei Ze?!
As expected of you, Zheng Xiuxiu, you're both responsible and self-righteous. You said Ye Quezi was so pitiful and wanted to be her best friend, but privately you mocked her for being ugly and stupid! I listen to everything you say, even more obedient than a son!
Now the ugly lame guy was forced to jump off the building and commit suicide. Even if I played a role in this, you, my cousin, are the real murderer! It was you who forced Ye Li to death!
You wait for her to come back to you, cousin! 】
Seeing this, Yitu immediately had a general idea in his mind.
Pan Hua has a crush on Zheng Xiuxiu, but the person Zheng Xiuxiu likes is the same person as Ye Li, Pei Ze.
Putting aside the fact that Pei Zexi dislikes Ye Li, Zheng Xiuxiu's hostility towards Ye Li has existed from the very beginning.
It’s like...Zheng Xiuxiu’s current hostility towards Xitao.
It is too easy for a pretty girl to use her connections to target a girl who is not likable.
Ye Li was forced to commit suicide. Pan Hua and Zheng Xiuxiu were both murderers, but only one of them should be considered.
Yitu closed the diary and threw it back into the drawer. He didn't know whether the subsequent development would be affected by the player's random character and the accompanying plot.
For example, Pan Hua wrote on the last page of her diary that she would come back to find you.
Will Ye Li really come to find Zheng Xiuxiu after his death?
Yitu was a little uncertain, and at this moment, the dormitory door rang.
He subconsciously looked towards the door and found that it was Wang Xiaolei who couldn't wait to come and visit.
"What the hell? Is this a room for two?"
Wang Xiaolei looked at Jiang Hanyu, who had a terrifying aura, and then looked at Yi Tu, who was standing behind him and didn't know what to do. He always felt that something was wrong.
"Well, take your time. I won't disturb you anymore."
He wanted to slip away after he finished speaking, but Yitu stopped him in time.
"Aren't you and your boyfriend rooming together?"
Wang Xiaolei shook his head. He was unlucky and didn’t get drawn with Qu Bai.
Instead, there was a middle-aged man who looked like an uncle and a young man named Han Wei in dormitory 307.
Qu Bai, Mu Cheng, and the nervous man with black glasses were assigned to dormitory 301.
Wang Xiaolei's dormitory is also a four-person room, but there are only three people living in it.
However, Qu Bai's room 301 is a real four-person room, and the missing person is the math class representative who was melted to death by Spider Teacher during the day.
Their last dormitory, 311, is at the corner of the corridor. There are only two people in the dormitory, Li Qiwen and Wang Peiqi.
Wang Xiaolei was not familiar with either of them, so naturally he couldn't talk to them. He just took a look at them at the door and slipped away.
Because this night is the first night of this card game.
They didn't know what would happen at night, and even though Wang Xiaolei really wanted to change dormitories, he had no choice but to endure it.
No one knows whether swapping dormitories is one of the conditions that trigger death, so no one dares to try it rashly.
Wang Xiaolei came and left in a hurry.
As soon as he left, a virtual game panel popped up in front of Yi Tu.
[Club 4 Card Field - Safe Haven:
Venue ID: 449032
Card game difficulty: low
Number of players: 16
Number of players entered: 16
This card game will exist for 5 days (the countdown has been started)

This card game requires you to complete the task: Find the love letter that Ali wrote to Pei Ze (0/1)
Props available in this card game: (/)
Status of the escape door in this card game: Not refreshed (80% of the plot of the card game is completed, and the refresh status is changed)
Servant assessment of player survival rate: 20%
(Your survival rate is below the average, please pay attention to the rules of the game!)
When Yitu saw the survival rate breaking the lower limit again, his heart moved slightly.
This card field is obviously different from the first one. Here he got Shi Ling's identity role, and the corresponding death conditions of this role have been told to the players.
So...is the system reminding him in disguise?
There are less than 24 hours until tomorrow's math test. Based on his overall evaluation, does it mean that the probability of successfully avoiding this death condition is only 20%?
This was lower than he had expected, and the situation was not very good.
Below the game panel is a prompt that the ticket bidding mode of this card game has been turned on.
Yitu took a quick look. Due to the delay in the system playback, although there were not many card game owners coming in, the interactive area was very lively.
【Anonymous Player 01: First, first!
Anonymous Player 02: Meow? Are you playing with students? This card game is awesome! I'm totally in love with it.
Anonymous Player 04: Their uniforms are really nice, but when they sit like this I can’t even tell which ones are players ╭(╯^╰)╮
Anonymous Player 07: That one! The guy in the middle of the first row! So handsome!
Anonymous Player 09: Holy crap! This handsome guy must be a player! I've never seen a good-looking NPC in a game! My youth is over (沧桑点烟.jpg)
Anonymous Player 11: !!! Everyone, go away. The handsome guy and the guy next to him are a couple (cursing and exiting the group chat.jpg)
Anonymous Player 23: CP is good, I like watching CP pass the level, there are actually two pairs in this card field!
Anonymous Player 21: These two couples are ranked so high, oh my god, first and second place...
Anonymous Player 33: Oh, can I say that I’m scared of being cheated by lovers? (bitter smile)]
Yitu took a quick look and then closed the game panel.
The game performance determines the voting of these card room owners. Those who say they are unwilling now will vote more aggressively than anyone else when the time comes.
At half past six, two dormitory managers came up to check on the room.
One tall and one short, they walked into dormitory 304 one after the other.
Yitu looked up at the two of them. The tall and thin dormitory manager spoke first:
"I'm checking the ward. Are everyone here?"
Yitu nodded, "They're all here."
There were only two people in the dormitory, him and Jiang Hanyu. There was no need to call out their names; it was obvious at a glance.
After the dormitory manager left, Yitu closed the dormitory door.
Since the school's dormitory manager would call out his name, Wang Xiaolei could only think about changing dormitories.
After all, when the aunt handed them the keys before coming up, she obviously knew these students.
Although the two dormitory managers looked normal, no one knew whether they would behave differently after violating the rules.
Yitu sat in Shi Ling's seat and read a comic book for a while. The dormitory where they were alone was particularly quiet.
He didn't pay attention to what the man was doing. They were facing each other with their backs to each other, and Yitu was too lazy to look back.
By the time he finished reading a comic book, it was already eight o'clock.
The flow of time in the card room is much faster than in reality, and time slips away if you are not careful.
The dormitory building will be locked on time at 9 o'clock, and the power will be cut off and the lights will be turned off at 9:30.
Yitu stuffed the comic book back into the drawer, took out pajamas and a towel from the closet, and planned to take a hot bath first.
Although these clothes were worn by Shi Ling, from the moment he entered the card room, the game set him as Shi Ling himself.
So these clothes were all in Yitu's own size, and he looked at them carefully.
Although he is not a germaphobe, he also pays attention to hygiene.
There is another set of school uniforms in the closet, which should be left for the players to take turns wearing.
After Yitu took the clothes, he also brought the laundry detergent in, planning to wash the clothes together after taking a shower.
The man kept staring at him when he entered the bathroom.
This made Yitu a little confused. He took a bath...isn't that weird?
But Yitu didn't think much about it. They were all men and there was nothing to avoid.
But he never expected that when he was halfway through his shower, the bathroom door opened with a click.
Yitu: “?”
