97 Xiyue University 1* 8
◎A photo◎
All players cleared the second round of eliminations with Sang Mian's direct intervention, but no, a special group of people will be eliminated.
The doctor was locked up in a small dark room by Sang Mian. If he failed to arrive at the dormitory within the stipulated time, he would definitely be eliminated. After solving the most troublesome group of people, Sang Mian felt much better and even ate three more bowls of dinner.
After a day of live broadcast, the three of them counted the amount of tips. All of Sang Mian's tips were used on Lou Cangyue, so he didn't have much money left. The tips from Bai Tang and Xia Qing combined were enough to eliminate one and a half cats, which was considered a rich harvest.
At six o'clock in the evening, the system announced the eliminated teams.
[The second round of eliminations has officially ended, congratulations to all players for passing the level! ]
[Today's eliminated teams——0]
[Please return to the dormitory as soon as possible. The cat-and-mouse game is about to begin. Students who are not in the dormitory after nightfall will be forcibly killed by the system! ]
Bai Tang was stunned: "Isn't it wrong to eliminate the team? Didn't the doctor group who couldn't return to the dormitory quit the game?"
Xia Qing's face was filled with fear: "Do they want to spend the night in the small dark room?"
Sang Mian pondered for a moment. Xiyue High School was very dangerous at night except for the dormitory. The strange power should not be underestimated. The doctor would not risk staying in the small dark room.
Suddenly, she had an idea. She had overlooked the most important person! There were only three people locked in the small dark room, and the doctor team had four people. It must be the player she had overlooked who saved the three doctors.
Xia Qing slapped the bed and said, "The disaster really lasted for a thousand years! They managed to escape it."
Bai Tang looked serious: "Be more careful in the next elimination round. Doctors have a strong desire for revenge."
Xia Qing held a sister in each hand and said, "As long as we are together, there is nothing we can't solve!"
"Xiao Qing is right!" Sang Mian said confidently, "We will definitely be the final winner."
As the night deepened, a thick fog rose. Bai Tang slowly drew the curtains to block out all the fog outside.
At eight o'clock, the three of them waited quietly for the system announcement.
[The cat and mouse game has officially begun! Countdown to one hour and fifty-nine minutes...]
[Game reminder: Please lock the doors and windows, turn off the lights, and try not to make any noise. Cats have very good hearing and vision! Please do not leave the dormitory during the chase. You will be killed if you leave the dormitory. Please do not disturb other students. Students who are woken up will be angry.]
The three of them looked at each other. Everyone survived today's elimination round, so the probability of encountering a cat in each dormitory was the same. Today, one more cat was added, and the two cats divided the 25 teams equally.
They and Lin Qiu's group had already removed the locators in their school uniform pockets, so the cat couldn't find them.
Bai Tang said: "I also told the other two teams in our guild about the locator, so the cat is only targeting 21 teams."
Xia Qing frowned: "Will other players... die..."
Bai Tang's expression changed slightly. "Don't be too sympathetic. This game is an elimination game. Players can't win together. They all participated voluntarily. We are all betting our lives."
Sang Mian nodded heavily: "Yes, life is more important to them so they will choose to quit. The game has given them the option."
Xia Qing let out a long sigh and turned off the lights in the dormitory. She understood the reason, but she just felt a little uncomfortable.
The student dormitory fell into deathly silence. Xia Qing glanced at the time from time to time. The cat-and-mouse game had already started for twenty minutes, but no one in the dormitory made a sound.
Bai Tang asked in a doubtful voice: "The cat didn't catch a mouse in twenty minutes? That shouldn't be the case, right?"
"It's definitely not right." Sang Mian said faintly, "It doesn't seem like the nature of the game."
The more the three of them thought about it, the more they felt something was not right. They always felt a chill in their backs.
Bai Tang stood up quickly. She thought that she couldn't just sit in the dormitory without even a chance to react if something unexpected happened.
There was nothing else in the dormitory except four beds, four desks and two large wardrobes. She hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Let's hide in the wardrobe, don't sit on the bed."
Xia Qing tilted his head: "Why?"
Bai Tang pursed her lips: "Sixth sense, I always feel that the dormitory is not safe, as if something can spy on us."
Will the cats let the players go easily? Impossible. Since the cats didn't come to the dormitory openly, it means they have other actions. Killing the players silently is the most terrifying. They must be on guard.
Hiding in the closet is a physical defense. Even if the cat has a way to spy on the player, it cannot find them immediately.
The two large wardrobes were big enough for four people to hide. Sang Mian was stronger, so he stayed alone in one wardrobe, while Bai Tang and Xia Qing squeezed into one wardrobe.
After making the decision, the three of them climbed into the cabinet and waved goodbye to each other. Bai Tang carefully reminded them: "If there is anything unusual, open the cabinet and run."
Sang Mian made an OK gesture and slowly closed the closet door. Now it was pitch dark, with only the sound of her own breathing rising and falling in her ears. There was still an hour and a half before the end of the game, so she simply watched the live broadcast in her mind.
There are still a lot of people in her live broadcast room. The most common words in the barrage are *** and 666, as well as the words "anchor nb". Sang Mian is confused by the barrage and can't understand what the audience wants to express at all.
However, she learned from the interspersed barrage that *** was a word blocked by the system. The system did not want the anchor to see those barrages because they revealed the inside story of the game. She also guessed from the anchor's powerful barrage that hiding in the closet was the right thing to do, at least she could avoid the cat and mouse game tonight.
After staring at the barrage for a long time, Sang Mian realized that she couldn't see any information about tonight, so she closed the live broadcast panel. There were still forty minutes left before the end of the game.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she heard the sound of wind. There seemed to be a strong wind outside, and even the windows were shaking.
After hearing the system notification sound indicating the end of the game, the three of them came out of the closet at the same time.
Xia Qing came out of the closet still in a daze: "Today's cat and mouse game is over? It's over without any sound? So simple?"
Sang Mian supported Xia Qing and said, "If you are fine, go to sleep quickly."
Bai Tang held Xia Qing's other arm: "It's good enough for us."
After a sleepless night, all three of them slept soundly.
[Good morning, dear players! The colorful campus life has begun again! I hope players will greet a beautiful day with a brand new look! ]
[The teams eliminated yesterday were - six groups]
[The third round of eliminations is about to begin, the content of the eliminations is - Pen Fairy Game]
[All players please arrive at classroom 404 of the teaching building before 8:30 to start the game]
The system announcement sounded on time at eight o'clock. The three were stunned for a few seconds after hearing the elimination of the team. Xia Qing patted his head, which was not yet fully awake, and said, "What did I hear? Six teams were eliminated last night!"
Sang Mian, who was still groggy at first, suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Group six!"
Bai Tang touched his chin and said, "I knew it wouldn't be that easy yesterday. We managed to kill six groups of players without making any noise."
Xia Qing put on his coat with regret: "I don't know what those players went through last night. They didn't even make a sound."
Sang Mian yawned and said, "Never mind, let's go to the classroom."
The campus was quiet today. There was not a single monster on the way from the dormitory door to the classroom. Sang Mian wondered if the school was on holiday or was it just to make room for the players?
As the three of them stepped into classroom 404, they heard an excited howl.
"Sang Mian, you are finally here!" Chu Huang shouted at the three people with his eyes wide open.
Sang Mian had a puzzled look on his face. They didn't seem to know each other well? Why did Chu Huang look so excited?
She remained indifferent and distant: "What's the matter?"
Other players also looked at Sang Mian with strange eyes, and so did the brothers Zhou Jianyi and Zhou Jiayi.
Xia Qing felt guilty for some reason. Why did these people look so strange? They didn't do anything last night.
Chu Huang took out a photo from his pocket and said shockingly: "I thought you were just ordinary people with some abilities, but I didn't expect you would even let go of the weird! You actually...seduce the weird!"
He had a look of deep sorrow, as if Sang Mian and the other two had done something outrageous.
Sang Mian scolded loudly: "You can eat whatever you want but you can't say whatever you want! Which eye of yours saw my seduction and weirdness!"
Chu Huang waved the photo in his hand: "Still don't admit it! This is the evidence!"
Sang Mian sneered: "What can a photo represent?"
"You know it in your heart!" Chu Huang began to tell the story with a shameful look on his face: "Last night, a strange creature crawled into my room from outside the window, took a photo and asked me if I knew you."
Sang Mian narrowed his eyes dangerously and interrupted him: "And then? You exposed my position?"
"Who do you think I am? Later, when I saw that the monster didn't want to eat me, I boldly asked him who he was and what he wanted from you?" Chu Huang's eyes were subtle: "He actually said that you are the most important person to him and that he would protect your personal safety, so what did you do to him, Sang Mian?"
Sang Mian and the other two were stunned after hearing this. Xia Qing looked at Sang Mian in shock: "Sister Sang, you..."
Bai Tang hesitated for a few seconds but couldn't help but whispered, "Mianmian, you're not dating Guiyi behind our backs, are you?"
Sang Mian was stunned. She pointed at herself and said in disbelief, "Do I look like someone who is in love with Weird?"
The whole place was silent. After a few seconds, the doctor sneered: "Isn't it?"
Sang Mian: “No!” She snatched the photo from Chu Huang’s hand. The photo was of her in the office of Spark Entertainment. No one knew who had taken the photo of her profile secretly.
"What does that weirdo look like?"
Chu Huang: "I don't know, I didn't see his face clearly, but his voice sounds familiar."
Sang Mian frowned and murmured, "Could it be that an employee of Xinghuo Entertainment has a crush on me and came to Xiyue High School just to see me?" After thinking for a long time, she could only think of one explanation. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had figured it out. Sang Mian sighed silently, "He's just my admirer, don't worry about it."
The doctor turned his head away speechlessly, thinking, is there really such a narcissistic person? Does she really think she is beautiful? She is just average.
"Okay, since it's not important, let's talk about something important." Lin Qiu's clear female voice reached everyone's ears: "Who is willing to participate in the Pen Fairy game?"
The table in the middle of the classroom came into everyone's sight. On the table was a piece of dark red paper and a pencil with a diameter of three centimeters placed quietly in the middle.
Someone in the crowd said, "Is that the prop for the Pen Fairy game?"
"Are we really going to play a game?"
Lin Qiu glanced at everyone and said calmly: "Everyone knows how to play the Pen Fairy game, right? More or less, everyone has heard of it."
Xia Qing recalled her memories of the Pen Fairy: "In the Pen Fairy game, you can ask nearby ghosts to answer questions. Before asking the Pen Fairy, the player needs to recite a specific spell. After asking the question, recite another spell to send the Pen Fairy away to prevent the Pen Fairy from entangled with the player." She paused: "Have you seen horror movies about Pen Fairy? It's always because the protagonist doesn't send the Pen Fairy away that things get bad."
