Chapter 77 The Number of Graves is Paramount 39 Sixth Middle School
Other things are hard to remember, but I can remember how many times I was pranked in a day, because I was scared half to death every time.
With a plan in place, execution was necessary. The students provided a list of suspects, but since they didn't know exactly who did it, whether they collaborated, or who among those who collaborated did the most damage, they let Ling Yuanshan choose for himself.
While Ling Yuanshan was working, Wu Wangwang suddenly had an idea: "I think it's too slow to wait for them to buy one by one. We need to think of a way to prepare for the future."
"For example?" the students asked in unison.
Wu Wangwang's eyes lit up: "We should be short a lot of pens, and Gao Hu happens to have money. Tomorrow morning, we'll get up very early, be the first to leave the dormitory, and then go and buy all the sharp objects in the school."
Ling Yuanshan's hand trembled as he wrote the whistleblower letter: "Your idea is brilliant... but the problem is, where are we going to put all that stuff? If we buy it, won't our intentions be obvious to everyone?"
"So we need to go early, and make an excuse that we're buying college entrance exam supplies for the whole class, in case something goes wrong with the pens we bring on the day of the exam. After we buy them, we'll hide them in dormitory 504 in the old campus." Wu Wangwang offered a solution.
The students didn't understand, and girl C asked, "Why did you specifically hide in that haunted place?"
Wu Wangwang explained, "Its biggest advantage isn't that it's haunted, but that it refreshes. Too many people died in room 504, so the ghosts can only come out in turns to see people. Every time someone goes in, the dormitory status has to be refreshed. I suspect that this is one of the underlying codes of the game's instance. Whether it's an NPC or a player, once they're put in, no one except the referee can accurately locate where the stationery is hidden."
Everyone suddenly realized, and the girl clapped her hands lightly: "That's right, even we can't find it ourselves, so we'll just say it has nothing to do with us. But Gao Hu, do you have enough money? We can chip in. In the past few days, we've also studied our own identities and found that apart from those who are clearly from impoverished families, everyone's family background isn't that bad."
Ling Yuanshan was still writing the complaint letter with his head down, without looking up: "Don't worry, Gao Hu's allowance is definitely enough. His allowance is given in six figures. He hasn't had a chance to use it since he came to No. 6 Middle School. He has saved up a lot, enough for us to keep buying until the day of the college entrance examination. Anyway, there's only one week left."
After hearing their plan, the man in question had another concern: "But what if the school provides an unlimited supply of stationery? Even if we have a lot of money, we can't compete with the school, can we?"
Wu Wangwang snapped her fingers: "You can ask the referee about this. Referee, are you there?"
The students were stunned, never expecting it could be done this way. Just as their shocked expressions appeared, the referee arrived. She appeared directly next to Wu Wangwang and said, "The school can hardly support it. The game pursues realism, and no process will be omitted. If there is no stock, the merchants have to go and restock first. There can be gaps in the process."
"Look, the problem is solved." Wu Wangwang spread her hands out next to the referee.
This method of clearing dungeons is too advanced; the students felt their brains were smoothed out, as if they were strolling through a Norwegian forest.
As they spoke, Ling Yuanshan had already written the complaint letter, without signing it. He sealed the envelope and said, "Alright, it's late. Let's hurry back to the dorm. I'll trouble you a little more today. Be careful and try not to hurt your right hand. When we pass the administration building, I'll ask Senior Sister Wenshou for help."
It just so happens that Senior Sister Wenshou can only move around near the administration building every day. Just give her the complaint letter, and then put it on the dean's desk during the day when it's appropriate.
Everyone was much more arrogant when they went back today. Wu Wangwang even told the girls that she would be leaving early tomorrow morning and wouldn't be able to escort them, so they had to be careful.
The next day, before dawn, as soon as the bell rang, the dormitory supervisor opened the door, and Wu Wangwang rushed out. Ling Yuanshan did the same, even carrying a huge duffel bag. He said that Gao Hu had just returned to China and wasn't used to living in the dormitory, so he brought a lot of things with him, and the bag was left behind.
Without delay, the two rushed to the convenience store that had just opened, and began to ransack it, not even leaving behind needles and thread. After they finished, they asked the owner if there was any stock left, and they got several boxes of goods.
The reason given yesterday was the same one Wu Wangwang mentioned: the boss didn't suspect anything and even gave them a discount, making it very cheap.
There were too many things to fit in one bag, so Ling Yuanshan shamelessly asked the shopkeeper for a small cart. The two of them quickly steered the cart around the shop, avoiding the shopkeeper and other security guards, and headed to the old campus.
Because it was still dark and the security guards were still patrolling, the two of them were forced to slow down their running speed.
Fortunately, she got up early enough and was familiar with the route, so she arrived at the dormitory building before dawn. Just as she was about to go in, Wu Wangwang suddenly stopped and started rummaging through all her belongings. After emptying her luggage bag, she kept a portion of each category, with a larger number of pens.
Ling Yuanshan asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?"
“We should keep some for ourselves. When the NPCs’ pens get damaged and they can’t find anywhere to buy new ones, we can sell them to them. The condition is that they have to tell us who attacked us,” Wu Wangwang replied while picking through the pens.
After listening, Ling Yuanshan suddenly realized: "Brilliant! Undermine their cooperation from within. Since everyone must abide by the school rules, even if they are unwilling, they will agree in order to be able to write the test. Ge Nan, you are amazing."
Wu Wangwang had already packed her luggage. She stood up, carrying the bag, and said, "Otherwise, how could I have gotten full marks in politics and history?"
Afterwards, Wu Wangwang carried the items into 504 one by one by herself. Just as Wu Wangwang had expected, every time she stepped into 504, she encountered a different ghost. Moreover, because the ghosts were constantly being refreshed, the items that had been moved in earlier would disappear.
After dealing with these matters, it was almost time for morning self-study. Wu Wangwang and Ling Yuanshan rushed back to the dormitory building. Without even checking on the students, they went back to the classroom for their morning reading.
On Wu Wangwang's chair, there was glue and nails everywhere, and the drawer was still filled with the corpses of various small animals. Wu Wangwang skillfully used the teleportation technique to transfer all the items to the NPC near the door. When the teacher entered the door, the NPC was so startled by the nails that he jumped up.
Then, under the resentful glares of the teachers and classmates, they had no choice but to abide by the school rules and drag the unlucky classmate out to receive his punishment.
There was no time for classes, but gossip spread quickly. It was said that someone was injured in the morning, but unfortunately, they didn't die, so everyone still couldn't have a holiday.
There was something wrong with what he said. Wu Wangwang kept it in mind. When she met the students at noon, she realized what was wrong. In this school, the ones who would get hurt were these mortals who had come in.
All eight students were injured to varying degrees. The only lucky ones were those who had been reminded by Ling Yuanshan yesterday to protect their right hands.
"How could this happen?" Ling Yuanshan asked in a deep voice. He and Wu Wangwang left for a while.
Man B, clutching his left arm, said indignantly, "This morning they showed no sportsmanship and ganged up on me! But there was no evidence. It was like they suddenly grabbed me and bumped into me, then apologized, but my hand was scratched by a gap in the railing."
The others were the same. With one or two people, you could be careful and defend yourself, but with many people, it was a complete gang fight. How could you possibly win?
Ling Yuanshan was furious; he even considered grabbing a weapon and killing him.
Wu Wangwang noticed his expression and pressed his hand down, saying, "Calm down. We need to remember the school rules, the school rules. They attacked together. Did you tell the dormitory supervisor?"
The girl covered her bleeding face and said in a muffled voice, "I told her, but the dorm auntie said the dorm is small, and it's normal to bump into each other if you're in a hurry. The college entrance exam is just around the corner, don't be so delicate..."
This isn't a matter of being delicate; they're practically killing me!
However, these kinds of minor issues are often overlooked in schools as hidden bullying.
They had been cautious, thinking that avoiding the rankings would be enough, but as the dungeon neared its end, the NPCs went berserk and tried to kill them, probably to meet their mortality rate KPI.
Wu Wangwang released Ling Yuanshan and carefully examined the wound on the girl's face. It had been broken open. She thought for a moment and said, "It's okay. I'll get you some Chinese medicine after we get out. It won't leave a scar."
“The scar is nothing. I can always get plastic surgery after I get out. I’m just afraid that one day I won’t notice and I’ll bump my head and die here.” The second woman said softly. She was injured on her leg and had already been bandaged at the infirmary, but now she walks with a limp and is completely unable to walk independently.
As they were talking, the players arrived at the cafeteria to get their food. They were also covered in injuries, and for some reason, several of them looked pale and thin with dark circles under their eyes. If someone in a horror movie had a face like that, everyone would assume that person was going to die.
Cheng Hai noticed Ling Yuanshan's situation and came over after getting his meal. He bent down and asked, "Want to cooperate? There are only six and a half days left. We all know that once a dungeon enters its later stages, both the storyline and the boss will go berserk. Of course, this dungeon may not have a boss, but the minions are tough to deal with."
These random NPCs and ghosts alone are enough to give them a hard time. Right now, only Wu Wangwang and Ling Yuanshan are still maintaining their dignity. Although Cheng Hai doesn't know how they did it, as long as they can cooperate, they might be able to get their protection.
Ling Yuanshan was still angry and didn't want to waste time with Cheng Hai, so he said directly, "We're already like this, and cooperating with us would only make us stepping stones for you. You've never valued our lives. It's better to fail than to be sold out."
Cheng Hai chuckled after hearing this: "Don't pretend to be so noble. If you two hadn't been using these kids, how could you be sitting here unharmed? Aren't you using them too? Wouldn't it be better for everyone to use each other than just being used by the two of you?"
Looking at Cheng Hai, the students truly understood what adult malice meant, something they had never encountered while growing up in school.
Man B, who had a bad temper, couldn't hold back any longer: "The two of them weren't injured because they—"
"It's because we've taken back. We devised a plan a long time ago, and it's just a matter of whether you dare to listen to it." Wu Wangwang suddenly interrupted Man B, glancing at him with a hint of disappointment.
Noticing Wu Wangwang's gaze, Male B realized that he had almost exposed Ling Yuanshan and Wu Wangwang's plan. If it had been exposed, the ten of them would have been torn to shreds by the entire school's NPCs.
