Chapter 410 Starry High School 3
Just as world history is the real world, what about the history of China?
She pulled out a copy of "Five Thousand Years of Chinese History" and flipped through it. Sure enough, it was the kind of book she had read when she was a child.
She then found a book called "Modern Chinese History," which was similar to what she had studied in the real world.
Shi Jinwei has a bold guess: could this instance be based on a real-world background, rather than a supernatural world?
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why no strange things could be found in the world.
The system did not display any further prompts.
Sighing inwardly, Shi Jinwei felt increasingly confused and decided to discuss the matter with the other pioneering players during this dungeon run.
Three cobblers can outwit one Zhuge Liang; there are eight vanguard players.
"Hello, we are police officers and would like to ask you some questions."
She put the book back on the shelf, intending to find a few more geography books to read.
Then the sound of police officers could be heard outside.
The police officers who came to investigate Jiang Tao's death this morning have not left yet.
The teacher's drowsiness vanished instantly, and she quickly stood up to cooperate with the police.
Shi Jinwei overheard that the teacher was either praising Jiang Tao or praising Jiang Tao.
The sound wasn't loud, so I didn't listen any further.
Go around to the other side to look at the geography book.
Yes, it's still the same as in reality.
"Captain, Captain!" Suddenly, someone ran in, speaking loudly.
The relatively quiet environment was instantly shattered.
A policeman who was whispering with the teacher looked up in annoyance: "Keep it down, you're making such a racket."
The policeman then realized that this was a library.
He apologized to the teacher, then immediately ran to the team leader and whispered a few words.
The captain's expression changed drastically, and he and his colleagues hurriedly left.
I glanced at my watch; it was almost time for class.
She put the book back and prepared to leave.
A strange notification sound suddenly popped into my mind:
[Player's random mission successfully triggered. Mission objective: Find the murderer and the truth before the game ends, or the game is lost.]
Shi Jinwei was taken aback.
Asking a student to find the murderer? Do you think this is some kind of anime about eternally young elementary school students?
However, since it has been triggered, it still needs to be completed.
She hurried out of the library, trying to catch up with the group of police officers.
However, the school bell rang at that moment, signaling the start of lunch break.
The characters used in cosplay should be chosen according to their roles and identities.
She felt that the difficulty of this game might not be its strangeness, but rather the excessive restrictions on identity.
I planned to go to the classroom first, and then find an excuse to ask for leave and sneak out.
In the hallway, I found a large group of students gathered at the classroom door; they were all classmates.
Students from other classrooms also wanted to join in, but were deterred by the special circumstances of the day.
During lunch break, the homeroom teacher stayed in the classroom to oversee the students, so the activity had to be stopped.
Shi Jinwei walked over, puzzled, and found her chubby classmate sitting next to her.
Besides class monitor Han Xiaoxiao, the chubby boy is the only one I'm really familiar with.
She walked over and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
The chubby boy saw his deskmate and immediately whispered gossip to her: "The class monitor was sitting in his seat when he suddenly started strangling himself and killed himself."
Shi Jinwei: ""
This is a horror story from what era?
The chubby boy spoke with such seriousness that he nodded vigorously at her.
The students around her also looked terrified; she believed the chubby boy's words.
But pinching yourself, is that weird?
Shi Jinwei glanced around; the crowd was bustling, but none of them seemed suspicious.
There were rows of green bars in the glasses, but no red bars.
She looked up at the ceiling and then at the corner of the corridor in the distance, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
So I asked the chubby boy, "Are there any ghost stories at our school? Or has there been a murder case before? The school rules say we're not allowed to go to the abandoned teaching buildings, is there something going on there?"
These are all common plot points in novels and comics, and Shi Jinwei listed them all that she could think of.
If even one of them matches, it might be the breakthrough point.
The chubby boy looked at her as if she were a weirdo: "Do you love reading novels? All you talk about are those kinds of plots. Let me tell you, we need to distinguish between novels and reality."
Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that she would be subjected to ideological work by an NPC child; Shi Jinwei's silence was deafening.
However, the on-site investigation could not be completed in a short time, so the school had to temporarily gather the students in other empty classrooms, and the homeroom teachers personally supervised everyone's afternoon nap.
Shi Jinwei deliberately chose the most secluded corner to sit down.
Four police officers arrived at the beginning, but there weren't enough people to take statements, so they had to take turns.
Some of the female students at the scene were still in shock.
Seeing this, the homeroom teacher went out for a while, and soon signaled one of the girls to go out with her.
A doctor in a white coat was standing behind her; he was probably going to provide psychological counseling to the girl.
At this point, the students who had stayed behind to take notes returned, and the homeroom teacher called on a few more students to leave.
Seeing this, Shi Jinwei took out an invisibility cloak and put it on.
He left with the students.
The homeroom teacher didn't notice, sitting in the front with a frown, seemingly lost in thought.
She successfully followed the student to the room where the statement was taken.
Considering that they were all students, the captain brought in four kind-hearted policewomen to take their statements.
Four students sat in front of them and answered questions.
Shi Jinwei looked around and found that the questions were all similar, and the students' answers were also almost the same.
From her basic name to information related to Han Xiaoxiao, it's all very detailed.
The last question is particularly noteworthy:
What is the relationship between Han Xiaoxiao and Jiang Tao?
"I don't know, I haven't heard of them having any interaction." The first student shook his head.
"Does being first in the grade count?" the second student retorted.
“We used to represent the school in competitions together; they were both the top representatives of their grade,” the third student recalled.
"Probably not. Han Xiaoxiao is so pretty, she has many suitors. Jiang Tao is good at nothing but studying." The fourth student said with a disdainful look.
The third and fourth students were kept behind for further questioning, while the remaining two were replaced by new students.
Shi Jinwei focused her attention on the two people who remained.
In summary, in the eyes of most students, the two were like a fairy and an ordinary mortal, with a huge gap between them.
Han Xiaoxiao is beautiful and has a cheerful personality, so she has many suitors.
Jiang Tao is thin and introverted, and usually keeps to himself.
Their only connection was that they participated in a competition together last semester.
The police asked about their relationship because the cases all occurred today.
Furthermore, preliminary autopsies indicated that they all died by suicide.
Jiang Tao jumping off the building seems reasonable, but Han Xiaoxiao strangling herself to death is inexplicable.
Although school leaders are trying their best to control public opinion, the outside world is unaware of this for the time being.
However, rumors spread very quickly among the students.
Classes must continue; the first class this afternoon is biology.
Little Fatty complained that this teacher loved to take attendance.
Shi Jinwei couldn't be absent, so she went back first.
