Chapter 29 Online Scam
Ouyang Yi listened with great difficulty to this terrible story.
She calmed down for a moment.
Her voice trembled, "I knew it all along! I shouldn't have been so curious. Knowing this would only have made me die sooner! Why did you have to tell me this?!"
Ji Zai's expression was serious. "Because I feel that I can't bear this alone. I need to find a capable assistant to help me deal with this shocking bad news."
It's obvious.
The entire dormitory building.
Only the president is reliable.
Ouyang Yi's world has collapsed.
No wonder that after dealing with the virus, the records didn't reveal anything else.
She knew that this news couldn't be revealed.
Otherwise, everyone will easily break down.
For everyone's good health, let's not talk about them being treated like pigs.
After all, no one knows when the executioner's blade will fall.
How confident are you in your reasoning?
Ji Zai was silent for a moment, then said, "Absolutely."
Upon hearing this number, Ouyang Yi felt dizzy again.
Okay.
She's already suffered enough trauma today.
That's the most I can have.
All she wanted to ask was, "So, do you know what to do next?"
"Just play it safe," Ji Zai said matter-of-factly. "Anyway, it's best to pin our hopes on the army outside. We can't trust any of the forces inside. After all, they're all thinking of slaughtering us. If we trust them, we'll be wiped out."
This is what Ji Zai truly wanted to say.
After learning that people in Ning City had the virus in their bodies.
She was able to distinguish who the enemy was.
Who are our allies?
Those outside will try to rescue them.
It's purely about treating people as experimental subjects.
Therefore, Ji Zai decided to unite against the forces in Ning City.
Um.
People outside are resisting them.
The people inside are also resisting.
That's absolutely outrageous.
Ouyang Yi understood. "I understand. I will try to increase patrols these next few days. If we see anyone with ill intentions, we will hide immediately."
"We simply ignore any local forces we encounter."
"Resolutely implement the principles of righteousness."
Ji Zai nodded in satisfaction, "This child is teachable."
After dragging the person into the water, Ji Zai felt refreshed.
Secrets are indeed a thing.
You need someone to share the burden to feel at ease.
She went back.
A chill ran through me.
Then she remembered the notebook.
This makes me think about the virus they carry.
Ji Zai took out disposable gloves.
The kind that comes with pizza and fried chicken as a gift during final exams.
He applied a thin layer to his hand and then solemnly opened the notebook.
Liang Qiyue lay on the bed, "Ji Zai, why did you suddenly open this thing? Otherwise, what if you saw something you shouldn't have seen, and then got killed to silence you?"
Ji Zai didn't care at all. "But for the current situation, opening the notebook is the best option. The notebook's owner has turned into a zombie. If she writes down her mutation process in the notebook, then we can know what the mutation process was like."
"It can also be used for timely prevention."
Liang Qiyue thought it made sense.
I watched from the side.
They observed intently.
July 13, sunny. The weather was great today, so I went shopping with my friends.
[On July 21st, it was raining. I discovered that mushrooms had grown on the mountain behind the school, but before we could pick them, the teacher found out and we were kicked out.]
[July 31st, rainy. I thought of that mushroom, and that teacher in the white coat. It felt strange. Logically speaking, the back hill was the agricultural students' territory, all reclaimed fields. Why would the teacher chase us away?]
Ji Zai said, "They're all just everyday things."
She continued flipping through the pages.
Liang Qiyue nodded in agreement, "I can see that this student has a special fondness for the mushrooms on the back hill."
After looking at it for a while, the two realized they shouldn't have criticized the owner of the diary.
Then there was a tacit silence for three seconds.
Continue reading the diary.
[August 3rd. I've been feeling unwell these past few days. My body suddenly feels terrible. How should I put it? It's like I've been staying up for eight nights in a row. I'm mentally exhausted, but there's just that feeling of not being able to feel anything.]
[August 4th, I can't take it anymore, I feel really bad, my head is throbbing like it's being stabbed, I need to go to the school clinic to get checked out, I need to prepare for final exams, I hope nothing goes wrong at this time?]
[August 5th, no, the pain is terrible, my head feels like it's being pricked with needles. I suddenly remembered when I went to the back mountain with my friends on July 31st, I didn't see that teacher, I only saw a group of agricultural students protecting their graduation theses. They were very wary of me, as if they were afraid I was there to steal food.]
When Ji Zai saw this, he was suddenly startled.
She looked at the entries from August, which were all records of times when the diary's owner was feeling unwell.
She looked down and found that there was nothing left.
They started their exams on August 8th and officially began their holiday on August 12th.
The zombie outbreak occurred on August 15th.
It's early September now.
The time intervals are too close.
The last line was written crookedly, and it was clear that the person who wrote it had suffered greatly.
However, the last line, without a date, was left before his death.
But this caused Ji Zai's pupils to shrink slightly.
[It hurts, it hurts so much, I feel like I'm going to die]
Upon seeing the last line, Ji Zai's finger twitched slightly. "Pain? Headache? When zombies get sick, it's pain, not fever?"
Liang Qiyue also saw these words.
She sympathized with the notebook's owner; the distorted handwriting revealed her deepest suffering.
How painful it must be.
Even the characters are curved.
But she didn't expect that "the reaction to the zombie virus mutation would be so intense. I didn't get a fever, I just felt a headache."
Ji Zai pondered for a moment and then said, "July, go and inform the others, tell them about the situation before the zombies mutated. I'll go online and tell the others about this discovery."
"Hopefully, people in Ning City who have IP addresses will see this and be able to distinguish who is about to mutate."
Liang Qiyue nodded, but hesitated. "Should we just say it like that? Won't it attract the attention of those powerful forces?"
“The point is to get their attention,” Ji Zai said. “They don’t know our exact location. If we suddenly reveal such big news to them, they will be hesitant to act rashly and will imagine us as an extremely powerful force.”
"The stronger our image is outside, the less likely those people are to suspect Ningda."
“Outside the camp, the leader of the Ning Alliance must be mysterious and powerful.”
She smiled slightly, "But who would have thought that beneath this shell lies a group of fragile college students!"
It's all about the contrast.
Liang Qiyue sighed repeatedly as she listened, "These days, there are so many people committing fraud online."
It's the end of the world.
They're still scamming people online.
After seeing her leave, Ji Zai quickly went online.
I immediately posted the news I had just received.
—[On the signs of zombie mutation]
[The author posted!! Wait, is this title even readable to me? I always thought you were a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), but you're telling me you're a pro!]
Holy crap! The internet is really something else, even this kind of news gets trending.
[Hmm, it's a severe headache, not a high fever or cough! Good heavens, who would have thought?]
[So it really was you guys stirring things up these past few days, right?! Author, who are you anyway? Where are your allies?! Why are you even getting this kind of news?]
[Leader of Ningmeng: Mind your own business. I'm already being kind by sharing information with you. Stop your nagging. There are people inside who are treating us like dirt. When you go to the shelter, keep your eyes open and don't walk into the lion's den.]
[Holy crap, that's a lot of information. Is there a trap waiting for us in the shelter?]
[The sky has fallen, does that mean someone inside is after our lives?]
[Leader of the Ning Alliance: To be precise, someone needs you as test subjects]
【艹 (a type of plant)】
[Is this the kind of information we should know? Alliance Leader, aren't you afraid of being assassinated?]
[Hmm, judging from the leader's demeanor, he's probably the one who killed others. How could others have killed him? The information inside is so complicated and confusing, it's terrifying. All I can say is: Leader, save me!!]
Ji Zai looked at the scene with satisfaction. "Very good, now everyone knows I'm the big boss."
"Yeah, by the way, the internet is down now."
Will those people hack into our website again?
Probably not.
no.
I'm still not at ease.
I need to find someone in the computer science department to take a look.
