The time for evening self-study was getting closer and closer, and all the students had returned to the classroom. Vivier didn't dare to pass the note to Wang Xiaoming rashly, and could only wait for the evening self-study to end.
Evening self-study is not as scary as classes. As long as you don’t talk and do your homework properly, you’ll be fine.
The strange-looking teacher will occasionally come down and walk around, and put his head next to you to look at your homework. Don't panic at this time, just stay calm.
Weiweier felt that she had finally figured out the trick.
At 9:40, the bell rang on time, announcing the end of evening study and that students should return to their dormitories.
Because it was after school, Vivier guessed that the teacher would come to inspect the classroom like he did at noon today, so the few people who did not have tasks that had to be done in the classroom did not stay in the classroom to talk directly this time. Instead, they waited until most people had left, and then followed the teacher downstairs from a distance.
Sun Xiaofang and Li Hua took the lead in conveying all the information that needed to be conveyed, saving Weiweier the effort. After listening to them, Chen Xiaohua looked around with some fear.
There are sensor lights in the corridor. A few people walked at the back and didn't make much noise. Some lights with less sensitive sensors would not light up at all.
They had already reached the second floor and heard footsteps coming downstairs. It sounded like there was more than one person, so it seemed that the teachers were about to get off work.
"Let's walk faster." Vivier said, quickening her pace. The movement finally attracted the attention of the old sensor light, which lit up with a click.
Several people hurriedly left the teaching building, fearing that they would bump into the strange-looking teachers coming down the stairs, but the game obviously did not intend to let them return to the dormitory, so it issued a task at this time.
[The current time is detected to be 10:00 PM, and the mission trigger conditions have been met. "On a dark, windy night, a beautiful time." Please go to the grove behind the basketball court to complete the date mission.]
???
Their eyes widened. A date? A small forest? Seriously?
"The dormitory's curfew is 10:10," Chen Xiaohua said. This was the information she had secretly obtained while chatting with her roommates in the dormitory at noon. "We must complete the task before this time."
Everyone hurriedly turned towards the so-called "small woods". Weiweier jogged along with them, and a question popped up in her mind: What if the time required for the task is destined to exceed the access control limit?
As the saying goes, good things don't work, but bad things do. After entering the grove, the countdown for the mission "Date" was a full 15 minutes!
"What are you doing to us?!" Li Ming shouted, "By the time the mission is completed, the curfew will have already passed!"
"The game is deliberately trying to keep us outside." Wang Xiaoming frowned and looked at Li Hua: "It should be related to the information you found today. We have to be careful tonight."
In the grove, apart from the sounds of their low voices, there were only the occasional bird calls and the rustling of leaves in the wind, which made people feel uneasy.
Nothing happened in the first few minutes, until after the dormitory curfew, a long and high-pitched whistle sounded throughout the campus, and several people in the grove heard it.
This kind of whistle sound is not a good sign under any circumstances, and many times it means that danger is about to come.
For example, now.
After the whistle, accompanied by a sharp electric sound, the school radio was turned on.
"We are issuing a notice regarding students who have not returned home overnight. Six students from Class 2, Grade 3: Zhang Xiaohong, Sun Xiaofang, Chen Xiaohua, Wang Xiaoming, Li Ming, and Li Hua, please arrive at the girls' dormitory duty room within ten minutes of hearing the announcement. I repeat, please arrive at the girls' dormitory duty room within ten minutes of hearing the announcement."
"What should we do?" Weiweier glanced at the mission countdown. There were only six minutes left. "Should we go back soon?"
"No, I can't go back." Wang Xiaoming shook his head, "At least not at night."
According to the book, night and monsters obviously appear together. He had no doubt that they would be torn to pieces as soon as they got to the duty room.
"Then we have to hide." After receiving his answer, Weiweier quickly changed her mind: "Maybe they won't be able to wait until we return, and will come to 'take' us back personally."
She emphasized the word "da" (detailed), which obviously did not mean what is commonly understood.
"Then where should we hide?" Chen Xiaohua asked, "No matter how big the school is, there's only so much space. We'll be found eventually, right?"
"We definitely can't just stay in one place." Li Ming said, "If they're looking for us, we have to move."
In short, it's a game of hide-and-seek.
The six-minute countdown ended, the mission was completed, and there were only four minutes left of the ten minutes given to them by the broadcast. There were two buildings closest to the grove, one was the cafeteria and the other was the boys' dormitory.
"Go to the cafeteria?" Sun Xiaofang looked at a few people. No one had any objection, so they started to move towards the cafeteria.
There are stairs on both sides of the cafeteria, so there is plenty of space if you really want to hide, and the cafeteria is quite spacious.
"Let's not gather in groups." Wang Xiaoming said. Although gathering in groups makes people feel safe, if they are caught, they will all be caught in one fell swoop.
In the end, Chen Xiaohua and Li Ming hid on the second floor, Sun Xiaofang and Li Hua went to the third floor, and Weiweier and Wang Xiaoming went up to the fourth floor, which was a special teachers' cafeteria.
After taking a look at this place during the day, Weiweier always remembered it. She thought that since it was night time now, no one would eat inside, so it was a good time to go up and check it out.
The fourth floor was pitch black, though a little moonlight allowed a glimpse of the cold stainless steel tables. From the outside, the teachers' and students' cafeterias looked much the same, so the two began to make their way toward the kitchen, which lay just behind the window.
The door to the back kitchen is right at the edge. It is paved with tiles and looks much cleaner than the cement floor outside, but the things inside are not very clean.
A vast quantity of green vegetables was squeezed into a basket, their juices spilling out, staining the surrounding floor green. The walls of the stove were covered in a thick layer of yellow-brown grease, and the seasonings were piled haphazardly, uncovered, left open. Weiwei even saw a small cockroach crawling out of the seasoning box...
Walking in, you can see a chopped-up pig on a large stainless steel slaughter table, with its internal organs and bones spread out on the table, and red blood still dripping from the corner of the table.
"Shh!" Wang Xiaoming suddenly grabbed Weiwei and pulled her to hide behind two large green trash cans in the back kitchen.
The trash can gave off a very sour smell. Weiwei couldn't help but frown and cover her mouth and nose, then followed Wang Xiaoming to look in one direction.
There is another door in the back kitchen, but it is not the kind that opens and closes. It is just a large door frame, separated by a plastic PVC partition curtain cut into several pieces.
At this moment, the partition curtain was lifted, and a tall and thin figure walked out from inside.
