Chapter 43
When the long black hair burst out from the photo, it first penetrated the phone, and then penetrated Shen Yunzhe who was standing in front of the phone.
Even though he was penetrated, Shen Yunzhe was still smiling, as if he was happy that the audience was treated the same as him.
[Fuck, this lunatic! ]
He looked so happy, not afraid of death, he wanted us to experience the feeling of having a pile of black hair blown in our faces.
[At least... a human can't... forget it, he's not human.]
I thought I'd lost my fear after watching so many live broadcasts, but I didn't expect it to be awakened here.
Death was just a moment away. Shen Yunzhe opened his eyes and heard a bell ringing in the distance. It was the usual school bell.
Everyone stood here safely again, and fear was still frozen in everyone's eyes, except Shen Yunzhe.
Shen Yunzhe was laughing. He sat there, took out his mobile phone, and turned on the live broadcast in front of everyone's horrified eyes. He held up the phone and pointed the screen at his face. At this time, the barrage of comments was still surging, and all the audience were cursing Shen Yunzhe as a lunatic. He was actually trying to scare the audience.
"You don't like it." Shen Yunzhe said in a strange tone: "Are you scared?"
"But don't you think your heart will beat when it's frightened? It's alive, like a human being."
Shen Yunzhe put away his smile and suddenly said in a strange and calm tone: "Oh, yes, I forgot, none of you are alive, you are all dead ghosts."
【Crazy, really a madman. 】
What is he doing? Oh my god, is he really suffering from intermittent psychosis?!
【From the beginning he seemed normal but was talking to himself.】
[Why can't I get out of the screen and kill him! ]
Shen Yunzhe felt extremely happy and satisfied as he turned off the comments. Turning around, he saw a group of people huddled together, looking at him tremblingly.
Everyone looked at him with confusion and fear in their eyes, only Li Yuluan's expression was normal.
Forget it, Li Yulun, this cool guy with expressionless face, has no expression at all.
"What a coincidence, we meet again." Shen Yunzhe greeted them happily.
Everyone: ...
What do you mean we meet again?!
"Hey, hey, hey, how come he changes every day?!" Lu Shun's voice became stuttering. "I don't have much contact with him. Do you think he was like this before?!"
Yuan Jing pulled Li Yuluan's sleeve hard, and she tried her best to wink at him.
Although Shen Yunzhe is not feeling well now, Yuan Jing and Li Yuluan have at least spent much longer time with Shen Yunzhe and have experienced more together, so they seem to be more familiar with him than others. As for Lu Shun, Lan Sicheng and others, they are not familiar with them at all because they died too early.
What if they think something is wrong with Shen Yunzhe and attack him? !
"Shen Yunzhe?" Bi Jiayin called his name. "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, what can happen to me?" Shen Yunzhe put away his smile and looked no different from before.
Li Yiluan came out and stood in front of Shen Yun. "Today, he and I will be partners. We will act alone. Yuan Jing, tell them what we have discovered."
Yuan Jing was a little hesitant.
"Let's leave it like this for now. Let's go investigate." Li Yuluan pulled Shen Yunzhe away. Shen Yunzhe did not resist and let him pull him out of the crowd and walk towards the empty teaching building.
This is the best solution at this stage.
Although Shen Yunzhe's personality changed last time, the change was relatively restrained. Restraint usually means that it is difficult to be noticed, so Shen Yunzhe stayed calm until the end, but this time it didn't work. His emotional expression was too sharp, even a little abnormal.
"You didn't escape either?" Li Yiluan pointed at the hair that tied him to the wall.
Yuan Jing was still screaming when he died. There was dense hair at the back of the classroom, and Shen Yunzhe was trapped in it. Li Yuluan was not surprised that Shen Yunzhe was strangled to death.
Originally, Shen Yunzhe and they died at a very close time.
Li Yuluan didn't hear any answer, even the footsteps disappeared. He turned around and saw Shen Yunzhe standing there counting the floors.
He counted very perfunctorily, jumping from 1 to 3, and then forgetting the number after 4. He kept muttering the numbers over and over again, with a kind of fatigue that made people yawn.
"Shen Yunzhe?" Li Yuluan called him.
"Ah?" Shen Yunzhe looked at him, then he blinked, "What did I count to just now? I forgot, there's no way, let me count again."
"8th floor." Li Yiluan gave him the answer directly, "Shen Yunzhe, it's too obvious that something's wrong with you."
Shen Yunzhe laughed when he heard what he said. "Don't worry, it's happened twice already. Once we're all dead, we'll be able to answer the question at the beginning. I don't think there's anything to be afraid of. Death is just like falling asleep. When you close your eyes, you can't see or hear anything. It's so simple."
Li Yiluan looked at him and said, "We are indeed in a cycle, but this cycle may have a limit. We can't continue like this forever."
"What do you think?" Shen Yunzhe looked at Li Yuluan in surprise. "On the contrary, this is an open-ended mission, which means we can repeat this day endlessly."
"I'm not optimistic about the situation here."
Although his behavior was very strange, Li Yuluan found that Shen Yunzhe not only spoke human language, but also seemed extremely sharp.
"Why?"
"The human spirit can't withstand the daily cycle of death." Shen Yunzhe said with a smile: "Death is right in front of you. You have to die once a day. After dying, it's not enough. You have to die again. Who can bear it? And even if you can bear it, you can't bear the fatigue."
"The body needs rest, and the spirit needs rest too." Shen Yunzhe closed his eyes, looking as if he was breathing air. "A person will go crazy if they don't sleep for three days. We come here again and again, and we never get any rest. We step into this place hopelessly, and we still have the memories of the past."
Shen Yunzhe opened his eyes and glanced at Li Yuluan with a playful look.
He said, “I’m so tired that I’m dying.”
"Aren't you tired? Judging from the time, you haven't had a proper sleep in two days."
As Shen Yunzhe spoke, he opened his phone and watched the live broadcast, his words were sharp and provocative.
"Aren't you tired? You've been watching live broadcasts for two days and two nights, and you still say you're human. A human would have died of exhaustion long ago."
Before the audience started cursing, Li Yulun reached out to grab his phone, turned off the screen and put it away. He completely understood that Shen Yunzhe now seemed to have a kind of thorn, which would stab anyone it caught without distinguishing between friend and foe, and he especially liked to provoke the live broadcast audience.
Shen Yunzhe sighed regretfully.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Have you gained anything new after Yuan Jing and I died?" Li Yuluan stuffed the phone into his pocket.
"New discoveries, yes." Shen Yunzhe nodded. He recalled for a moment, as if flipping through his mind, before finally speaking, "The words on the back of the photo on you have changed."
"The photo said that the teacher found out the next day that the student who had jumped from the building was not dead, but another student had jumped from the building."
Li Yilun nodded. "So, the theory that Yin Yin was parasitized by a sparrow is true?"
"Why don't you think that this teacher is reincarnated just like us?" Shen Yunzhe said.
Li Yiluan looked at him, and after a long moment he spoke, "What?"
"A student who committed suicide by jumping off a building was resurrected. No one in the school thought anything was wrong, except this teacher. This shouldn't be the case." Shen Yunzhe spread his hands. "Then a second student jumped off a building. You see, it was exactly the same experience as ours."
"Go back to the beginning and continue dying in the same way as before."
Li Yulu was persuaded by Shen Yunzhe again.
He was silent for a moment, then spoke, "So, in other words, the announcement states that the teacher and student are also reincarnated. The teacher discovered all of this, and the student somehow made another person die in her place, and she survived?"
Shen Yunzhe raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is that how you judge it?"
"Isn't it?"
"Who knows?" Shen Yunzhe said, dragging out the words and suddenly changing the subject. "Where are we going?"
Li Yiluan sighed, "Let's go back to the faculty building and see if this Chinese teacher has left anything behind."
"Oh, the faculty building." Shen Yunzhe nodded, then shook his head, "But I want some fresh air, let's go to the playground."
"What's the wind blowing? Let's go." Li Yuluan pulled Shen Yunzhe towards the faculty building.
They left in a hurry. Li Yuluan knew that Shen Yunzhe was not in a good state and it would be troublesome if he was discovered by others, so he tried to avoid contact with others as much as possible. Therefore, he did not notice that there was someone hiding not far behind them.
He gasped, shocked by what he heard.
Lu Shun waited until they left completely before coming out in a daze, and then slowly returned to the flag-raising platform.
"Why are you alone?" Bei Chuanchuan disliked him and said in a bad tone, "Where are Shen Yunzhe and Li Yulu?"
It turned out that they still remembered that Shen Yunzhe was the last one to die, and he must know something that they didn't know, so they asked someone to call Shen Yunzhe and Li Yuluan back, at least to explain all the situations before exploring separately, so Lu Shun volunteered to come over.
"How should I know? I didn't see any of them when I went there." Lu Shun argued, "Anyway, we haven't found them yet, so let's find a way ourselves."
"Is nothing going to happen to them?" Yuan Jing was a little worried.
Lu Shun snorted coldly, "Whatever happened to them, one died last, and the other was third from last."
"Alright, alright, now that it's like this, let's plan how to avoid our own deaths." Bi Jiayin was obviously much calmer than before. "This is the third time, and there's no such thing as a third time. We need to learn from this and find out all the details."
"That's right, Miss Bi is still the one who has her own ideas!" Lu Shun said, while complimenting her and carefully glancing at Bi Jiayin.
…
The teacher's position was also easy to find: the head teacher and Chinese teacher of Class 3 (8), but they didn't find anything useful either.
There were only test papers and homework on her desk, and finally she only found a piece of music with lyrics on it.
Shen Yunzhe looked at the lyrics and hummed, it was exactly the same song they had heard.
"It's actually the school song." Li Yiluan looked at the lyrics. "It's really sunny and uplifting."
Seeing that Shen Yunzhe ignored him and kept humming the song over and over again, Li Yiluan began to analyze everything that had happened. "First, this teacher and his class representative went to the screaming school song competition. Then there was a horror legend about a sparrow possessed in the neighboring school. Then, a sparrow possessed a student and came to this school."
"In order to occupy the student's body, the female student was forced to jump off the building and commit suicide. The teacher, who went to the school next door with her, had a similar immune effect."
"Then, the next day, the teacher discovered that time had been reversed and the female student had not committed suicide by jumping off the building. It was another student who died."
Shen Yunzhe still didn't answer. He just sat on the dusty chair and hummed a song to his own amusement.
Just when Li Yuluen was about to call him, there was a melody mixed with Shen Yunzhe's. Li Yuluen looked out the window and then realized that the time had come for the first person to die.
He remembered: The first person to die was Lu Shun?
A sharp scream came from outside, a cry of extreme terror. The person shouting must be Bei Chuanchuan. Her voice was always sharp, and her screams were even higher. But why did she scream when Lu Shun died? They had already experienced this twice, and everyone should know that they would die in the order they died.
"Someone will definitely try. Not everyone can accept the reality of their impending death." Shen Yunzhe finally spoke. "Humans are creatures of desire. It's normal to compare ourselves with others."
Shen Yunzhe said: "Why did he die later than me? Why should I be the first to die?"
"Forget him, even I can't help but compare myself to others: Why am I the only one who can't sleep? Everyone can sleep well."
Li Yuluan is a wise man. He has been fortune-telling for so many years, and all the people he meets are people who have something to ask for. I don’t know how many people ask him to tell their fortunes while hoping that he can curse others, and some even want to use other people’s lifespans to extend their own.
Every time, Li Yuluan told them seriously that he only told fortunes but did not change them, let alone change them in a way that would harm others and not benefit himself.
Pulling Shen Yunzhe downstairs, Li Yuluan had a cold expression as usual, but in fact he was in a mess.
He thought he understood the consequences of what Shen Yunzhe said.
Repeated death, returning to the beginning, but there is no way to avoid death. Anyone will collapse. The only difference is the number of times. A mentally strong person can endure ten or twenty times, while a mentally weak person will be defeated after three or four times.
When he arrived at the place where the sound came from, Li Yiluan saw Yuan Jing sitting on the ground crying, Bei Chuanchuan grabbing Lu Shun's collar and scolding him, and Lan Sicheng and Bi Jiayin were nowhere to be seen.
"What happened?" Li Yuluan hurried over.
"You ask him!" Bei Chuanchuan pushed Lu Shun away with force, and then she and Yuan Jing began to tear down the wall.
Li Yiluan looked at Lu Shun. Although he already knew what happened, he still checked the time.
After confirming the time, he said, "How are you still alive?"
"What?! Can't I just live?!" Lu Shun roared, not knowing whether he was angry out of shame or really angry. "Are you not happy that I'm alive?!"
"I mean: How did you survive?"
"How can I live like this! He cheated on Bi Jiayin!"
Bei Chuanchuan and Yuan Jing finally pried open the wall, revealing a small wrist inside the wall. Bi Jiayin's clothes were covered with dust, and she was quietly trapped in this wall.
"I didn't. Did anyone see anything? I'm telling you, you can't talk nonsense without evidence!"
"Who else could it be but you?" Yuan Jing was crying. "We were trying to find a solution for you, but you suddenly found Bi Jiayin and said you had an idea and wanted to ask Bi Jiayin for any suggestions. Bi Jiayin followed you, and when we saw her again, she had been built into the wall in your place."
Bei Chuanchuan couldn't help but stood up and punched Lu Shun. She yelled, "I look down on you!"
"Bah! Who cares if you look down on me or not!" Lu Shun wanted to fight back but was stopped by Li Yulun. He was the only one of the four people on the opposite side, so he could only shout out: "I'm the first one to die! I die as soon as I come in, and when I open my eyes again it's the beginning, and then I start dying again! I can't do anything, I can only sacrifice myself!"
"If you have the guts, be the first to die! I'm telling you, in this playground, you have to be selfish! Who made her so kind as to actually follow me here?"
After scolding Lu Shun, he turned around and left. He knew that after doing such a thing, he could not stay any longer and could only act alone.
But it doesn't matter, he's still alive!
Li Yilun sighed and looked at Bei Chuanchuan and Yuan Jing, "Where's Lan Sicheng?"
"I didn't keep an eye on him for a moment." Bei Chuanchuan shook his head. "He's dead now."
Shen Yunzhe sat on the floor. He didn't mind the dirt or the cold, and his eyes were always fixed on the wall that had been torn open.
"Bi Jiayin died prematurely," Li Yiluan said, "and now the order is messed up."
"If it's not chaotic, keep reading and you'll find out." Shen Yunzhe's voice was so soft, as if he was afraid of waking the souls in the walls. He said, "Have you ever heard of this saying? If a player is killed in the game, they will become a ghost to seek revenge."
