After paying two hundred ghost coins, Su Luo randomly switched to sit next to a female classmate. Looking at the girl's notes, which were filled to the brim, she seemed to be a top student.
Without textbooks and with no interest in listening to the lecture, Su Luo began to observe her classmates. She soon noticed that her deskmate, a top student, was wearing clothes that were different from the others.
The school uniform was still a school uniform, but it had turned a bit yellow from washing, and there were even some tears in the edges of the sleeves. In contrast, the other students' school uniforms were brand new, and you could even smell the unique scent of new clothes.
That's weird.
Suddenly remembering the school rules that Teacher Liu had given her before she came, Su Luo opened them with great interest.
Welcome to Shanshui City Noble Academy.
Horseplay and horseplay are prohibited in this academy. Violations will be punished according to one's reputation score.
Students enrolled in this college are required to take a psychological test every month. Those who fail the test will be dealt with according to their reputation score.
[Lunch break meals must not exceed ten minutes; violators will be punished according to their reputation score.]
[No more than five hours of sleep per day; violators will be punished according to their reputation score.]
[Students are not allowed to leave the classroom during breaks. Violators will be punished according to their reputation score.]
[No loud noise is allowed in the library; violators will be punished according to their reputation score.]
...
As you look through them, you see that every rule, if violated, is punished according to the level of reputation. So what exactly is this reputation value?
And what does it mean to not sleep more than five hours a day? What's the point of that? Just say you want to cultivate immortality! When you're still growing, if you can't sleep well and eat well, what's the point of studying?!
While wondering what was going on, Su Luo suddenly noticed a string of numbers in her palm.
200.
That's exactly the amount of ghost money she just spent.
Could this be...?
The bell rang, signaling the end of class. Su Luo immediately stood up to leave the classroom, a move that drew the attention of all her classmates.
It was supposed to be the end of get out of class, but the school was unusually quiet, as if even going to the bathroom was something too embarrassing to talk about.
Su Luo: ...
They've all probably gone stupid from studying!
The rules say not to break them, but she's determined to break them anyway. To confirm her guess about her reputation score, she's going to do it during this break!
As soon as she stepped out of the classroom, she was caught red-handed by Ms. Liu, the teacher who had brought her there earlier.
"What is that transfer student doing? Go back to the classroom!"
Upon hearing this, Su Luo looked around and, sure enough, there was no one else in the corridor except for her.
Not afraid at all, Su Luo even crossed his arms and shook his head, seemingly enjoying the spectacle, and said, "What if I don't go back?"
As they were talking, Teacher Liu had already come up to Su Luo. Hearing Su Luo's words, he thought he would get furious, but to his surprise, he just nodded silently and said, "Ten minutes between classes, one thousand ghost coins per minute. You can choose to shorten or extend it."
Su Luo: !
Good heavens! Su Luo exclaimed, "Good heavens! I've seen people make money, but I've never seen anyone make money like this! You're shameless!"
She took out 50,000 yuan in ghost money and handed it to Teacher Liu, wanting to see what other tricks this school could come up with.
Overjoyed to receive the money, Mr. Liu was so excited that you could see his brain twitching inside his severed skull.
As expected, the number in Su Luo's palm changed from 200 to a sudden surge, exactly matching the amount of ghost money she had spent at this school.
It seems that the so-called reputation score is nothing more than the amount of ghost money each student spends at this school. The more money they spend, the higher their reputation score, and the more reckless they become!
Next, Su Luo used the time she had bought to quickly wander around the academy and found that every class in the school seemed to be the same. The teachers talked about the same things over and over again, which could be found in the textbooks. The students were also expressionless and very dull, like dolls.
When the teacher dismissed class, everyone wrote down the tutoring fees in this column, ranging from a couple hundred to a couple thousand yuan. The total for each subject was not a small amount. Not to mention the various practice materials, all of which were in ghost money. In less than four hours, Su Luo had already spent 100,000 ghost money.
The cafeteria should have been packed with people at lunchtime, but when Su Luo went there, she only saw a handful of classmates.
The only reason is that this cafeteria is too expensive.
Not only are the vegetables expensive, but they also don't look very appealing. The worst part is that they charge by the hour!
If you eat for more than ten minutes, you'll be charged 100 yuan in ghost money per minute. Who can afford that?!
What's even harder to assess is that taking a shower costs money, drinking water costs money, air conditioning costs money, electricity costs money—everything you can touch and see costs money. Oh, no, even things you can't see or touch cost money!
"You can't just burn money like this," Su Luo frowned, thinking to herself that if she ever ran into the boss of this dungeon, the first thing she would do was punch him twice!
Those merchants are so cunning!
After touring around, aside from the money flowing in like water, she didn't find anything special about this instance. She had been to the dormitory, the canteen, the teaching building... but there was no aura of any high-level monsters, and the system didn't give any hints.
Could it be that she's looking in the wrong direction?
Puzzled, Su Luo returned to the teaching building, intending to start with her deskmate. However, she found her deskmate emotionally unstable, holding a small knife and pointing it at several classmates who were also wearing school uniforms.
With her frail body slashed by the knife, Su Luo could vaguely see the pustules flowing from her female classmate's body. They weren't human internal organs, but rather irregular pustules formed from various human tissues, filling her female classmate's body.
"Quickly, all of you hurry up and get him to the infirmary!"
