Chapter 193 Mizuki Private High School (Sixty-five)
"Strawberry milk?"
Twelve's eyes widened, not sure whether he suddenly didn't recognize these four words or he was questioning the eldest lady for teasing him at this time and casually saying something that was completely unrelated to the topic.
Not only her, but other players and Chaka also expressed their feelings. After all, this was a mission, and a critical mission that affected whether the system could be put back online.
Although the goal of the mission is for them to find Yanqi's favorite thing, even if this thing is not some high-end jade jewelry, or other things that look very valuable at first glance, it will not be something as surprising as "strawberry milk".
After all, this thing seems too ordinary, so ordinary that it makes this task seem somewhat unserious.
Nan Huan nodded, and gave everyone a make-up lesson with a serious look, telling them what he heard from other students about Yanqi's liking for strawberry milk.
"Although I am skeptical about this answer, the only student who still remembers Yanqi might be the one you bumped into by chance. This shouldn't be such a simple matter. Maybe this is a hint given to us by the system in advance."
Compared to Twelve's disbelief and surprise, it is obvious that President Barbie is more accepting.
Since there are no more clues besides this, there is no harm in looking for it first.
What concerned her more was that everyone was listening to the eldest lady speaking, except for the president who was standing aside and looking somewhere else, not knowing what he was thinking.
Just when she wanted to ask the president whether they should split up and look for him first, he turned around and interrupted the discussion, "There's something wrong with the school here..."
After the others entered here, they were first attracted by Chaka, and then fell into a brief thought because of Nan Huan's words, so they had not yet observed the surrounding environment. Now when they heard what the president said, they were all on the alert, thinking that there was something wrong here.
But when he raised his head and looked around, he did not understand what the president meant.
However, Nanhuan and Chaka understood Beixi's meaning after a few seconds.
Before they could explain, a strange voice was heard.
"Classmates, why are you still standing here? Isn't it time to go to the classroom and meet your new classmates?" A gentle voice sounded from the side. Everyone then realized that someone had come up behind them quietly. What's more important is that none of them noticed it. This was too abnormal.
Several other players from Guild 12 and Guild 2 broke out in cold sweats and touched their weapons out of habit. However, after seeing the appearance of the person who had come and hearing her words, they forced themselves to calm down.
However, the teacher did not seem to notice the crowd's fearful state and continued talking to himself.
"Bei Wanchao, Nan'an... Chaka, the nine of you are the exchange students this time, right?"
Apart from the fact that the teacher called out the names of the freshmen in the copy, the biggest difference between this person who looked like a teacher and those faceless teachers in the copy was that she seemed to be an ordinary human being. She had complete facial features and was not like those faceless teachers in the copy.
Half a minute later, a group of nine people were forced to follow the teacher who claimed to be responsible for everything about them in school and prepare to go to their classes.
"Why does this mission have a plot?" Twelve was at the end of the team, with a bitter face, "After coming here, can't I escape the fate of being a student?"
She lashed out with the whip twice in anger, feeling as powerless as if she were punching cotton.
"Will this place be like in the dungeon? Will there be an exam here?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Twelve clearly felt that the resentment in the team had deepened. Except for Beixi, Nanhuan and Chaka, who had no special expressions, everyone else had a look that was hard to describe. It was obvious that they had been tortured by the exams in the dungeon.
"Or maybe we should just go find strawberry milk?"
Twelve suggested, and lowered his voice deliberately, not wanting to be heard by the female teacher in charge.
However, as soon as the words came out, they were rejected by the Six Gods.
"If I don't follow the mission assigned by the system, I'm afraid it will trigger the death rule. Besides, there might be some related clues. Even if it has nothing to do with the character itself, it must be related to the dungeon."
In fact, Twelve felt something was wrong the moment he said it. Now, after hearing how Liushen explained it, he could only curl his lips helplessly.
"And you didn't realize that this school is not exactly the same as the school in our copy. Our identities have also changed from freshmen to exchange students, so some new scenes should be triggered. The system said before that this place exists because the traces left by Yanqi are reluctant to disappear. Logically speaking, the campus environment should not be so different."
Liushen has been paying attention to the surrounding environment since the president mentioned the campus environment just now.
After walking for such a long time, the remaining players finally reacted.
If they had seen the ceiling of private high schools after entering the dungeon, now they felt like they were returning to a civilian high school.
The originally luxurious and prosperous environment suddenly took on a popular style in this mission.
Whether it is the normal-sized playground, the five-story teaching building, or the administrative building with white walls, they are all quite standard. Especially the closer you get to the teaching building, you can faintly hear the chattering of students playing. This is something that is not found in the copy; it is the normal state of a high school.
The other players observed their surroundings while pricking up their ears to listen to the young lady in front of them asking the female teacher about the situation.
In fact, Nan Huan was not very good at this kind of thing, but with two people on the left and right who looked less like good kids doing it, it would make people even more uncomfortable, so she had to use the acting skills she had honed in the drama club.
"The greening here is really good. It's nice to be able to relax in the garden."
Nan Huan looked at the small garden which had only two bends and could be seen to the end at a glance, and spoke insincerely.
The others resisted the urge to hold their foreheads in their hands. They were clearly just asking the young lady to find out something, but why did they inexplicably feel like they were letting their spoiled young lady go out and experience the sufferings of the world? What was going on?
But it was obvious that the female teacher was immersed in the joy of welcoming them and did not hear the reluctance in Nan Huan's words at all. However, she still explained it very humbly.
"The greenery here is just to distinguish the teaching area from the living area. If you want to participate in extracurricular activities or relax during the weekdays, you can go to the playground at the back, which is wider."
She explained with a smile, her eyes sweeping over Nan Huan's well-behaved face.
"I originally thought that students like you who graduated from private high schools would have higher requirements and feel that the various facilities in our school are relatively backward. Of course, some of them are indeed backward."
"But the atmosphere in our school is very good, it's just..."
The female teacher was so happy that she remembered something. After saying two words, she immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly took it back. "You will understand what I mean when you go to the classroom."
Oh? There is such a harvest. Nan Huan silently raised his eyebrows towards Bei Xi.
We transferred from a private high school, so where is this place?
The other players were also a little confused. Could it be that they transferred from Shuimu Private High School? However, the environment here looked much simpler, but there were many familiar places, the same as Shuimu Private High School.
"I heard the noise a while ago, and it sounds like the atmosphere is pretty good."
Nan Huan nodded, acknowledging the teacher's words, and then asked again inconspicuously, "The name of this school is quite nice. Has it always been called this? Or does it have a special meaning?"
See what the art of speaking is? He clearly wanted to ask the name of the school, but in order not to arouse suspicion or make others feel awkward, he changed the way he said it and also praised it.
The smile on the female teacher's face never faded. When she heard Nan Huan say that, she immediately started talking.
"Are you talking about the name 'Mizuki High School'? It's been called this name since the school was founded. According to the founder at the time, he hoped that the students who graduated from this school would be as tenacious as trees and as long-lasting as flowing water, so he chose this name. However, classmates often say privately that this name sounds perfunctory and careless. This is the first time I've heard someone say that this school has a nice name."
Well, the relationship has gone full circle and they are still here.
But everyone was a little confused for a moment, unable to confirm whether this was a special setting in their mission, or whether this place did have some connection with the actual school in the copy.
"Miss, is this school you mentioned the same one as the one in our copy? Both the name and the environment are so different. What does the system want us to do? Is it necessary to spend so much effort to find strawberry milk?"
While the female teacher was talking, Twelve had already rubbed against Nan Huan's side.
"Do you think everything here really happened, or is it just a special setting for this mission?"
She asked what was on everyone's mind. Although no one knew what the current situation was, some concepts still needed to be clarified.
"I think this is most likely the real Shuimu Private High School, or the predecessor of the school we saw."
Nan Huan thought for a moment and gave his own opinion, "After all, the system said that Yanqi left some traces. Although her identity is still in doubt, she did exist in the school. In other words, what we are experiencing now is likely to have happened in the past, which is why Shuimu High School has become the current Shuimu Private High School."
"Anyway, let's take a look at the situation first. Maybe the system wants to use this task to tell us something. But don't give up on finding the strawberry milk. We'll find a chance to split up and act separately later."
Beixi and Chaka also have the same idea, and there is no point for other players.
After the female teacher finished introducing the basic situation of the school, she led them to the door of a classroom and said, "This is your class. You will study and live here for a period of time. By the way, this is your class monitor, Yanqi."
Before he finished speaking, everyone turned their heads.
There was a girl standing at the door who looked nothing like the young lady, smiling and nodding at them.
