Chapter 92 Haunted High School (26)
Su Yue led Wei·Tool Man·Wan in such an inhuman way, walking all the way through the teaching building.
He wasn't sure if this would work, but according to previous circumstances, Wei Wan would get a headache whenever he went to a place related to his lost memory, and the stronger the connection with the memory, the more severe the headache would be.
If this logic is valid, Su Yue is quite confident in his move.
But this method really made Wei Wan resentful.
"Are you sure this will work?" Wei Wan said quietly, "I feel like a police dog."
"No, no." Su Yue said with a pleasant face, "You are the best."
Wei Wan: “…”
Wei Wan: "I don't feel comforted at all."
They walked through the first floor amidst Wei Wan's complaints and Su Yue's consolation. They met other students on the way, but when they saw Wei Wan, they still brushed past him quickly as if he were the plague god.
This kind of exploration should have been done secretly, because the dean of studies obviously did not want to see Wei Wan's memory search, so he had to be wary of other students reporting it.
But don't worry about that now.
Because any student's first reaction when seeing Su Yue, Cang Zhi and Wei Wan is to run away, and they don't care what they are doing at all. In the eyes of the students, they are lucky enough not to be targeted by the plague god Wei Wan.
The club activities were over and the teaching building was not far from closing. All the classrooms were closed, with only the most basic lighting on.
There were still some students on the first floor talking and laughing as they walked out, but when they reached the second floor, there was no one there at all.
There was only light in the form of a slanted rectangle, quietly falling on the corridor.
"Are you sure this will work?" Wei Wan couldn't help but say as they walked along the corridor on the second floor, "I really think this... Ouch."
He suddenly frowned and quickly pressed his thumb against his temples: "It hurts."
Su Yue looked up quickly. At this moment, they were at the main entrance of a classroom on the second floor.
There was a small metal sign hanging on the railing next to the classroom door, with the room number written on it:
212.
.
"Step back." Seeing that Wei Wan was in great pain, Su Yue immediately pulled his arm and led him back.
After retreating about half the distance of the classroom, Wei Wan let out a breath, gently massaged his solar plexus, and whispered, "Much better."
"Classroom 212." Su Yue said.
Wei Wan frowned slightly. Just the mention of this house number seemed to make him feel painful.
"But this pain is not serious," Wei Wan said.
They moved to the stairs, where they could not see classroom 212 at all. Cang Zhi even considerately stood in a lower position, completely blocking the view of classroom 212.
Wei Wan rubbed his temples.
"I agree with you now. You can indeed treat me as a tool." Wei Wan said.
"But why did the pain start as soon as I reached the entrance of 212?" Wei Wan asked again. "Logically, it should start to hurt slightly from a distance and get the most severe when you get closer."
"It's not a question of getting close, it's a question of seeing," said Su Yue.
Wei Wan was stunned.
"You didn't quite believe what I said, so you were just walking around. When you reached the door of classroom 212, you happened to see the house number '212'."
"When I don't see it, nothing happens even if I get close to it. But once I see it, it evokes important memories and the pain starts," said Su Yue.
"This time it hurts a lot," Wei Wan said. "Almost as much as when I saw those shoes. But I still can't remember. Classroom 212, 212... What does this mean?"
His continued thinking seemed to make his headache worse, so Su Yue gently comforted him: "Don't worry, let's continue to look up."
The group continued walking up along the teaching building, passing many classrooms.
But this time he went through all the classrooms, including the ones where Wei Wan taught, and he didn't feel any pain again.
In other words, only classroom 212 is related to Wei Wan's memory.
The three of them found a place to sit at the stairs again.
"I still can't remember." Wei Wan said in confusion, "And it hurts when I think about it seriously. It's really terrible."
"I have an idea." Su Yue thought about it, but as a god, he didn't remember the details of human life very clearly, so he confirmed it again, "What is the classroom usually used for?"
"?" Wei Wan looked at Su Yue suspiciously.
"I'm just confirming, confirming." Su Yue said guiltily, "After all, a top university like yours might be different from the ordinary schools I usually know."
The naive young master was indeed easy to fool at a time like this. Wei Wan thought about it and said "hmm" before explaining, "It's usually used for professional courses. Our course schedule has markings on it, indicating the day of the week, time, and classroom for each course."
"So one classroom might have several different specialized courses?" Su Yue asked, "but are these courses fixed?"
Wei Wan nodded and couldn't help asking again, "Isn't it true that not all universities are like this?"
"Then let's wait until tomorrow and ask what professional courses are offered in this classroom." Su Yue resolutely changed the subject, not giving Wei Wan any time to ask. "You wouldn't come to this classroom for no reason. Maybe we'll have some clues then."
.
When leaving the teaching building, Su Yue and the others unexpectedly met the leader again at the door.
The leader stood under the light of the teaching building. The street light illuminated a lock of her hair dyed bright pink. She was smoking, her thin eyelids drooped, and sparks flickered on her fingertips.
It was obvious that she was waiting for someone, and the person she was waiting for was most likely Su Yue and the others.
"You haven't left yet?" Su Yue asked in surprise.
The eldest sister shook her head and nodded to Su Yue, signaling him to step aside and talk.
Su Yue means knowing the meaning.
"Azhi, take Xiao Wei to buy ice cream first." Su Yue pointed at the big sister, "I want to chat with her for a while."
Cang Zhi cooperated very well: "Okay, we'll wait for you at the convenience store."
Wei Wan looked at Su Yue, then at the cool-looking big sister with a strand of highlighted hair, and followed Cang Zhi without saying anything.
"You two are players, but that little boy named Wei is an NPC, right?" asked the leader.
Su Yue did not give a direct answer. Although this big sister had been on friendly terms with them in the past few days, Su Yue was not the kind of defenseless naive person.
"What?" Su Yue asked back.
The big sister smiled, stubbed out the cigarette between her fingers, and tossed it into the trash can beside her. "I'd like to seek cooperation from you—no, saying cooperation seems a bit too much. This game is too fierce, and I'd like to ask you to guide me."
Su Yue motioned for her to continue.
"That NPC has a very high impression of you and your companions. You guys took so long to get back today. Can you tell me some information?" The big sister said, "I can also help. I have information to exchange."
Su Yue was about to bargain when he suddenly heard a faint voice. After careful consideration, he found that it was Wei Wan, who had already turned the corner, asking Cang Zhi: "You just let him go with a beautiful girl like this, aren't you jealous?"
Su Yue: "..."
Big Sister: “…”
Why can I hear these words?
Then Cang Zhi actually answered.
"No, our relationship is very stable." Cang Zhi said.
Suyue:.
The big sister quickly raised the corner of her mouth, then suppressed the smile of understanding.
She looked at Su Yue seriously and nodded: "I can see that."
…
.
"Let's get down to business." Su Yue said with a straight face, expressionless, "If you keep doing this nonsense, I will refuse to cooperate."
"Okay." The big sister gestured. "You have a good relationship with the NPCs. I believe you have explored the main storyline more thoroughly than I have. However, your integration with the players is very low. Moreover, there is hostility and distrust among the players right now. I can pass on the player intelligence to you so that you can pursue the main storyline without any worries. How about that?"
"Your relationship with those players isn't very good either." Su Yue said, "Where did you get your information from?"
"My equipment." said the big sister, and she quickly took off her earrings.
At a certain moment, Su Yue almost thought that she was going to say that this was also a divine earring, and in fact she was also a god. However, he soon realized that he was just being overly sensitive because a certain doll looked too much like the main god recently. If there were gods in this game, very complicated procedures would have to be followed, and Su Yue could not have been unaware of it.
The big sister did not hand her earrings to Su Yue. She held it carefully in her hands and kept a safe distance from Su Yue.
Even if she wanted to cooperate, she did not reveal all her cards to Su Yue.
"Amplifying earrings," the eldest sister said, "With this thing, I can clearly hear sounds that I shouldn't be able to hear. You were right next to me just now, and if I wanted, I could radiate some sound to you. You should also... ahem, feel it."
She was talking about the conversation between Wei Wan and Cang Zhi just now.
No wonder Su Yue felt strange just now. Logically speaking, they couldn't hear Wei Wan and Cang Zhi talking from where they were standing. Because Wei Wan and Cang Zhi couldn't hear them either.
Su Yue: "..."
This does feel a bit clear.
"I've even told you my equipment, so you should understand my sincerity," the big sister said. "I don't expect you to lead me through. After all, in a place like this, everyone fights on their own. If you have any key information, such as how to prevent nightmares or how to avoid being killed by the Pen Fairy, I hope you can let me know."
Su Yue had been willing to share these with the players. He was the type to bring as many players as possible through the game. So he said, "Okay," without even bargaining.
The eldest sister was slightly startled. "So straightforward? You didn't even ask me what I can exchange for?"
Su Yue made a "please" gesture.
The big sister was stunned again. This time she didn't say any more nonsense and started to speak her own message directly.
"They didn't get the pen fairy today." said the big sister.
"Not invited?" Su Yue was stunned.
The eldest sister nodded and said: "They were delayed in there for a long time, and the president was angry, but it was useless. The Pen Fairy just refused to come, and no one could do anything."
"Is this how it ends?" Su Yue asked.
"It can only end like this. The club activities only last until 10 o'clock in the evening. The activities must end immediately when the time is up, and the president must also abide by the rules." said the big sister.
"When those people came out, they were all very happy, thinking they had survived a disaster, but they didn't show it on their faces. After they left, they pretended that they had also invited the Pen Fairy and were dejected and worried about their lives, but in fact, they didn't come into contact with the Pen Fairy at all this time."
This means they should be safe this time because they are not cursed by the Pen Fairy.
Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
He was originally planning to ask the big sister which dormitory building all the people who were participating in the Pen Fairy Ceremony today were in, and then go to stand guard with Cang Zhi.
However, since we didn't ask for the Pen Fairy this time, the probability of something going wrong will be greatly reduced.
In other words, even if something happened, it would not be something Su Yue could prevent.
"That nightmare is crucial. They have it every night. Once it starts, it won't end until dawn. Even if they force themselves to wake up, as soon as they enter the dream again, the nightmare will continue and even become more bloody," said the eldest sister. "So these people don't even dare to sleep, preferring to stay awake all night. But because of this, everyone's mental state has become very poor."
"What about you?" Su Yue asked, "Do you have nightmares?"
"No," the eldest sister said, "and the guy with black-framed glasses who didn't participate in the summoning of the spirits on the first night, he won't either. I suspect the first day is a key point in the curse."
Su Yue originally thought of Cangzhi's sleeping doll that could prevent him from dreaming, and wondered whether he should share it with other players.
On second thought, the other players are all veteran players. If they enter the game, they will prepare sufficient spiritual props. The energy of the sleeping doll has been tested by Suyue, and it is equivalent to a small bottle of spiritual potion.
If the players' own potions don't work, the sleeping doll won't work either, there's nothing you can do about it.
In fact, Su Yue hung the doll not entirely because he expected the doll to help him get rid of nightmares.
Judging from what the big sister said, the most likely reason why he didn’t have a nightmare was because he didn’t participate in summoning the spirit of the pen on the first day. After all, the big sister doesn’t have nightmares either.
Su Yue hung the doll on the head of her bed mostly because it was given to her by Cang Zhi.
"What's wrong with you?" The eldest sister had been looking at Su Yue intently, waiting for his reply, and pointedly pointed out, "Your ears are a little red."
?
"It's okay." Su Yue explained at light speed, "The temperature is too high. I'm hot. You continue."
