Critical No.3 Middle School 3
People were coming and going on the stairs, going up and down in an orderly manner. If there was any problem, it was that it was a little crowded - the stairs seemed to be narrower than normal.
What would happen if you were squeezed onto the left staircase?
"Ji Yunding, you go in the front and I'll cover the rear."
Wei Qianqiu spoke coldly. People who were not familiar with her might feel a little dissatisfied, but Ji Yunding nodded and smiled at Wei Qianqiu instead.
"Sister Qianqiu, you are obviously very suitable to be the team leader."
The reason for this arrangement is obvious - Ji Yunding's character attribute is bad, while Wei Qianqiu is just relatively indifferent. If a bad person is hit, it is not so strange to knock people away.
In addition, Ji Yunding is actually one of the rare people with high affinity, so she is the most suitable person for this position anyway.
However, even if they had known this, Ji Yunding's performance was still a little beyond the expectations of the other three.
The moment she stepped onto the stairs, someone coming down deliberately took two steps in Ji Yunding's direction, bumped into her shoulder, and tried to grab her sleeve and pull her to the left.
"ah?"
Ji Yunding dragged out a long and rising ending tone, and grabbed the student's collar with his backhand.
"Looking for trouble?"
"no……"
"No? I think you just have a problem with me."
There was so much drama that the three people at the back were a little dazed.
The students around him also stopped, and Ji Yunding glanced back and said fiercely without hesitation: "What are you looking at? Get lost!"
Having said that, considering that loud noises were not allowed, Ji Yunding still lowered his voice slightly.
After saying that, Ji Yunding loosened his grip, put down the person who bumped into her, put his hands in his pockets, and walked forward in a nonchalant manner. When he reached the corner, he kicked the potted plant at the base of the wall.
The effect was quite significant. The students around moved away a little. But this is not our Yun Ding, the lovely and polite junior in our group?
Lin Shu was secretly a little shocked, but when he found that Ji Yunding took the opportunity to turn the corner and secretly glanced at them, paying attention to whether they were following him, his mentality immediately changed.
This is a damn weird story. It forces our newcomer to be a bad boy. I’m going to fight you.
But compared to this, there is another issue that needs more attention. Wei Qianqiu frowned and said in a low voice.
"Ji Changsheng, vision and hearing."
"receive."
Ji Changsheng and Lin Shu changed positions tacitly, walked to Ji Yunding, and connected her with Wei Qianqiu.
"Ji Yunding, rule number two: no chasing or fighting. Be careful of danger from now on. I will keep an eye on you at all times."
"This should be considered a provocation. I didn't hit it. And considering my affinity, it shouldn't matter."
Ji Yunding covered his mouth with his hands and spoke in a voice that only he could hear. The voice was transmitted to Wei Qianqiu through Ji Changsheng's ability.
"But it could indeed be considered a minor violation. Sorry to bother you, Sister Qianqiu."
Wei Qianqiu was slightly relieved by An Ding's politeness, but now was not the time to chat, and he couldn't ask unnecessary questions.
The group did not walk very fast. Even with Ji Yunding leading the way, they were still pulled by students coming down the stairs from time to time. In addition, these stairs were terribly long, with more than a hundred steps each.
This height was definitely not normal, probably because of some spatial distortion. But fortunately, nothing went wrong until the end.
After walking into Room 1303, the room was completely silent and a few people took their seats first - it was only 5:50 and there was no one in the room.
"I'll go downstairs to pick up the other groups." Wei Qianqiu didn't sit down, but walked straight out, "Ji Yunding, protect these two and try not to let them do anything."
After arriving early, there should be a period of time, which should be relatively safe.
"Sister Qianqiu, I'm with you."
Lin Shu stood up and was about to go, but met Wei Qianqiu's eyes.
The people who were to be picked up were not a group of capable team members. They had difficulty even getting to 1101 on the first day, and some of them might have died.
Lin Shu paused. Ji Yunding turned around and saw that her pupils shrank slightly, and her whole body seemed to be immersed in liquid fear for an instant, and she couldn't breathe.
Ji Changsheng turned his head to look at Lin Shu, and couldn't help showing a worried look. He immediately raised his hand to Wei Qianqiu: "Sister Qianqiu, I..."
"There are nine people in that group, and the line is long. If you suddenly get sick, I won't be able to take care of you." Wei Qianqiu explained, "I can go by myself, you all stay here."
Ji Yunding pulled Lin Shu's wrist, then looked at Wei Qianqiu: "Sister Qianqiu, if you encounter any problems, remember to tell us immediately."
"Lin Shu and I are both mind control types. If necessary, we can delay some time here."
Ji Changsheng immediately followed up. After Lin Shu sat down, he covered his face and sighed.
"I am too outrageous."
"It's okay. Everyone in our group has been sick for a while." Ji Changsheng lay on the table, closed his eyes and said, "It will get better. If it doesn't work, we will go to help Sister Qianqiu later. It's like going through it again."
"Excuse me, how do you use the visual link specifically?"
"Now close your eyes. In two seconds you will be able to see what's happening over there with Sister Qianqiu. If necessary, you can switch to a different view for your left and right eyes, but that will make you dizzy."
Ji Changsheng answered without even raising his head,
"Or right or left eye, picture, eye patch..."
"You can choose to see the scene from Sister Qianqiu's side with your left or right eye. If you have the chance, you can get an eyepatch. This will be more convenient."
As Lin Shu spoke, he tapped Ji Changsheng on the back of his head with his knuckles to shut him up.
"When he uses his abilities, his mind gets confused because he is the transfer station for the two of you to receive information. It's okay, he can still understand what you say, and simple actions won't be a problem, but too complicated ones won't work."
"Sister Lin Shu, do you usually go on missions with these two?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"It's okay. I feel like you're acting like a translator."
Lin Shu was obviously completely accustomed to Wei Qianqiu and Ji Changsheng's abstract way of speaking, and was able to fluently translate it into simple and easy-to-understand language.
"It was arranged by the boss. I was a little troubled at first, but I got used to it slowly." Lin Shu rubbed his head and sighed, "Recently, I've let them take care of me more."
“I see…”
As he spoke, Ji Yunding closed his eyes and felt a slight headache - receiving visual and sound information from both here and Wei Qianqiu at the same time obviously put a considerable burden on his brain.
However, this is also a kind of exercise.
The visual field rotated with Wei Qianqiu's steps, giving the brain a dizzy illusion of movement. Ji Yunding took a while to get used to it, and then he saw a slightly disgusting scene.
There was a pool of blood and flesh at the end of the stairs. It seemed that someone had been knocked to the side and died after being trampled countless times, and was gradually turned into meat paste.
Ji Yunding heard Wei Qianqiu stepping over the bloody flesh, and the sticky clacking sound was clearly audible. Even without the tactile connection, the slippery and smelly squeezing feeling of stepping on the rotten flesh flowed through the soles of his shoes, making people feel uncomfortable all over.
But Wei Qianqiu didn't hesitate at all, and just kept walking down. She walked faster when she was alone, and it took her more than ten minutes to get downstairs. At this time, seven people had gathered at the staircase.
If they didn’t make it to Building 1 in the first round, they would have to spend more time to get there.
"Is anyone dead?" She glanced at the people in other groups without changing her tone.
"No, that was another student." The person who was obviously the leader of the team spoke up and pointed at one of them. "He used a repulsion talisman, which seems to have violated the rules."
"Got it. You walk behind me. Whether there are people absent or not, we will start the action at 6:20."
Seeing that Wei Qianqiu didn't seem to have any problems due to the communication barrier, Ji Yunding secretly breathed a sigh of relief, opened one eye, looked at the somewhat nervous Lin Shu, and nodded.
Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief, then asked with some confusion: "Newcomer, don't you want to ask us why we have to go to so much trouble to help them?"
"Because our group has the highest salary, the best benefits, and the most resources." Ji Yunding tilted his head, as if it was a matter of course, "Isn't it?"
In Ji Yunding's opinion, getting more money and doing more work is a completely logical and reasonable thing.
Moreover, even if we ignore the people in other groups, we are extremely short of manpower now, and the pressure will eventually fall on the remaining investigators.
"What a good temper." Lin Shu sighed and rubbed Ji Yunding's head. "In the past, many people who had just joined the team would have opinions about this, especially those who had not been in other teams and were directly hired."
"Like what?"
"As for me. Because of this matter, I had to fight with the boss, and I lost miserably in the end." At this point, Lin Shu scratched his hair, his tone a little annoyed, "Then that guy made me the deputy team leader, saying that I would be responsible for educating new people from now on."
"The team leader is really mean."
"Who says it's not?"
After chatting for a while to ease the atmosphere, Ji Yunding suddenly felt something was wrong.
Among those people, the one who was said to have used the repulsion talisman had his sleeves slightly raised, revealing tiny and barely noticeable purple-red spots - exactly the same as the girl in Ji Yunding's dormitory before.
On the other side, Wei Qianqiu listened to the voice, raised his eyes to observe the man, and nodded imperceptibly - only the person with the first-person perspective could feel it.
"Sister Lin Shu, do I need to help Sister Qianqiu?" Ji Yunding was a little worried.
I don’t know if it’s because the deadline is approaching, but more and more students are coming and going on the stairs.
Lin Shu shook his head and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, the reason I want to go with you is not because I am worried about Sister Qianqiu, but because I am afraid that something might happen to the people in other groups."
"Is it really okay?"
"It's okay. I told you before, Sister Qianqiu..."
Ji Yunding only saw Wei Qianqiu and her companions walking up the stairs, while the person walking behind her lowered his head and walked in silence for a while, deliberately shortening the distance between him and Wei Qianqiu.
Seeing that they were about to reach the corner, the man suddenly stood up and pushed forward. The student who was walking down the stairs also stretched out his hand, trying to pull Wei Qianqiu to the left.
There was only a flash of silver light, and no one could see clearly what happened. Wei Qianqiu held the investigator, who almost tripped because of the empty push, in one hand, and put the dagger back to his waist without even getting any blood on it.
On the other side, a person's skull rolled down the stairs, and his body was still moving down step by step. He fell down after taking a few steps, and was then trampled, making a teeth-grinding sound of bones breaking.
"She is simply very strong and ranked second based on her hard power."
Ji Yunding heard Lin Shu's voice, but she just looked at the scene on Wei Qianqiu's side.
"It's better not to be seen."
Wei Qianqiu whispered something to make Ji Yunding feel more at ease.
"Newbie, can you see Sister Qianqiu's moves clearly?"
"I can see clearly, but I can't move that fast." Ji Yunding thought for a moment and answered cautiously, "At this speed, I can probably only take one move. If I take more, I'll definitely get hurt."
"Really? That's already super impressive!" Lin Shu lifted Ji Yunding and spun him around. "Sister Qianqiu can't do every move quickly, that would be very exhausting. Fight with us when you have time. You're the hope of the whole team."
"Sister Lin Shu, Sister Qianqiu told you to be quiet."
Ji Yunding pointed to his ears.
"My hearing is very sensitive. In order to avoid disturbing Sister Qianqiu, I have to find a way to get earplugs."
When entering a fixed ghost story, the life form will be teleported and cannot carry supplies. However, unlike other ghost stories, a fixed ghost story can be left as long as you walk out of the ghost story's sphere of influence. However, leaving and then entering the ghost story will be considered re-entry. Without a strong investigator to balance the difficulty, it is basically equivalent to entering a dead end.
Therefore, the logistics team will wait on the edge, and when the investigators arrive, they will deliver the supplies using a very simple method - throwing them in.
Yes, throw it in, and occasionally use a catapult, which is ancient and primitive.
In fact, as early as when the fixed ghost story first appeared, this place had been bombed by missiles. However, since the ghost story occupied area is actually in the gap between reality and the other dimension, even bombing is useless.
Ji Yunding remembered that there was a story in the textbook about an investigator who, in order to avoid death in a fixed ghost story and increase the power of the ghost story, dragged his upper body and crawled out of the edge of the range before he died, with his internal organs below the waist spilled all over the ground.
"No one fell behind at the start this time, which is pretty good." Ji Changsheng sat up and interrupted, "Last time, two people from other groups died at the start, and the indicators were a disaster..."
Ji Yunding sometimes feels that an internal chat in a group may seem strange and heavy to ordinary people, but in essence it is still the speech of office workers.
Wei Qianqiu came over with people from other groups, including a man who seemed to be a little unconscious - they would take care of him after they went to the border to collect supplies, so they could only leave him alone for now.
After everyone was in place, the pointer above the classroom pointed to seven o'clock. The slightly out-of-tune class bell rang, and a face slowly emerged on the blackboard, glancing at everyone, and then staring at Lin Shu.
"Your hair is too long. It's not up to standard."
Lin Shu reacted quickly and immediately picked up the dagger he carried with him and cut off half of the medium-length hair that had grown after entering the copy.
It smiled with satisfaction, and then picked out some faults from other people one by one, and finally its gaze stopped on Ji Yunding.
"You, why are you over there?"
"ah?"
Ji Yunding followed his impolite style and continued to raise unfriendly questions like a gangster. The other three people in the group took a deep breath and held back their laughter.
"Come up and sit on the platform."
Ji Yunding did not refuse. He walked straight forward, pulled out a chair, crossed his left leg over his right leg, turned his back to the strange face without any fear, closed his eyes and seemed to be indifferent, but in fact he was observing the guy with Wei Qianqiu's vision.
After everyone was seated, the strange-looking man closed his eyes and continued, "Tomorrow's classroom arrangements: Wei Qianqiu, the 18th-floor lecture hall in the No. 2 teaching building; Lin Shu, the music classroom in the No. 2 teaching building; Ji Changsheng..."
As it read, Ji Yunding listened to it name everyone here, and finally said, "Tomorrow, the teacher of this classroom will distribute teaching tasks and homework."
After saying this, it seemed to disappear into the blackboard, but suddenly it froze and looked at Ji Yunding again.
"…You are human too?"
"What else?"
“…”
It was silent for a while, then it spoke,
"Ji Yunding, classroom 3303, third floor, teaching building No. 3."
After listening to this, Ji Yunding said casually: "This number is really auspicious."
For weirdness.
