Chapter 98 Zhu Zhu's File
In fact, there is no trust between them, and they are both well aware of this.
With such skills and equipment, Aaron Jones must have obtained more intelligence than we imagined, but he said nothing and even concealed the fact of the bug.
But Lin Xi didn't really trust Allen Jones. After receiving the reminder from Allen Jones, she didn't seek information exchange with Allen Jones after obtaining the information. Instead, she went to Wei Ziqi in her own small group.
There was no other way. Although they knew rationally that they had to cooperate and only by working together could they pass the level, in reality everyone had their own ideas and self-protection was the most important part of this game. Even with the close relationship between Lin Xi and Cai Hua, Lin Xi could not completely trust Cai Hua, let alone Aaron Jones, who had just met him not long ago.
They both knew this, which was why Aaron Jones took the initiative to reveal the fact that he had installed a bug in order to gain Lin Xi's trust.
Lin Xi sensed the information released by Alan Jones. She was silent for a while and finally said, "Okay."
There was no need to say more about what Allen Jones was going to do, as he had just heard everything clearly through the bug. But Lin Xi still reiterated the key point of the matter just in case. She took Allen Jones to the side door on the first floor of the lecture hall and asked Shen Sangning to help open the door.
"It's dark in there, are you okay with that?"
"I can."
Alan Jones took the pen from his jacket pocket, then twisted the top of the pen cap with his hand. The next moment, a little light leaked out from the top of the pen cap.
“That’s what I did.”
Talent, really talent.
Lin Xi sighed in her heart. She checked the time with Allen Jones and told him to turn on the lights in the lecture hall in 30 minutes. Allen Jones said he understood, and Lin Xi left first and went to the administration building. Her task was actually very simple, which was to enter the archives room after Teacher Gao left and look for information about Zhu Zhu.
Her mission was not dangerous. As long as she was fast enough, she could leave before Teacher Gao came back. On the contrary, Allen Jones's mission was more dangerous because no one could be sure whether Teacher Gao would treat other teachers the same way as he treated parents.
Lin Xi waited for a long time after arriving at the administration building, watching the seconds tick by on her watch. She finally managed to hold out for half an hour. As soon as the thirty minutes were up, she saw Teacher Gao's office door open. Teacher Gao hurriedly left the archives room and headed straight for the lecture hall.
The target left, and Lin Xi no longer hid. She was very fast. With the help of Shen Sangning, she didn't even need to climb the stairs. She was carried directly to the second floor by Shen Sangning and arrived at the door of the archive management room.
Teacher Gao’s departure also illustrates one thing: she did use the lighting in the lecture hall as a criterion for judgment.
Lin Xi tried to push the door open, but found that it was locked. Lin Xi looked at Chen Sang Ning, and this time, without Lin Xi saying anything, Chen Sang Ning went straight in and opened the door for Lin Xi. Lin Xi stepped into the archive management room, and the door of the small room connected to it was also closed. It seems that Teacher Gao is really a very cautious person.
Fortunately, Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning were there, and this door did not stop Lin Xi. In order not to disturb Teacher Gao, she did not even turn on the light in the small room. The small room was surrounded by walls, and only the wall connecting to the office had a door and a window. In addition, the room was filled with metal shelves and piles of archives, so the small room was dark.
Lin Xi turned on the flashlight, and the beam of light wandered around the archive room. Lin Xi remembered that Zhu Zhu was a sixth-grade student, so she kept looking for the sixth-grade file shelf. Soon, she came to the sixth-grade file. Then she became overwhelmed. How could she find so many files?
Lin Xi could only ask Shen Sang Ning: “Wife, help me, just find the one called Zhu Zhu.”
"good."
Shen Sangning naturally wouldn't refuse Lin Xi. Lin Xi didn't know which class Zhu Zhu was in, so she could only start looking from the beginning. However, Shen Sangning's movements were much faster than hers. Shen Sangning didn't even need to reach out to look through the books one by one. She raised her hand, and dozens of files flew in front of her, and then automatically turned to the name column.
This speed was much faster than Lin Xi's. In just one minute, Shen Sangning found Zhu Zhu's file folder.
"Wife, it's this one."
Lin Xi took the file that Shen Sang Ning handed over, and Shen Sang Ning directed the folder to return to its original position. There was still a space in the folder, telling Lin Xi to put it back here after reading it. Lin Xi opened the folder, and on the first page was Zhu Zhu's personal information, and there was a photo in the upper right corner.
But this photo, like the one on the wall of the lecture hall, was crossed out with a black pen, so it was impossible to see what she looked like. Because there was only a headshot, even the red rope on her wrist could not be seen.
Lin Xi took a quick glance and noticed something was wrong. The flashlight flickered on the file and settled on the school. Zhu Zhu had records for kindergarten, first grade, second grade, third grade... every year. Lin Xi frowned. She had just flipped through the files of other students. Although the focus was on looking at the names, she still remembered that there didn't seem to be so many records in the school.
Lin Xi held the flashlight in his mouth, took out a folder in front of Zhu Zhu, opened it and checked it, and compared it with Zhu Zhu's. As expected, it was very different from Zhu Zhu's.
Zhu Zhu had clearly documented kindergarten, even adding a few sentences for each year. However, this sixth-grade student only had a single column for "sixth grade." Beyond that, it looked as if he had never attended kindergarten at all, with only first and second grades. Lin Xi, wanting to confirm this wasn't the only one, flipped through several more books and confirmed that Zhu Zhu was the only one keeping such detailed records.
That's weird, why?
Lin Xi was a little confused, only Zhu Zhu was different. Why did the others only have one grade and no previous records? Lin Xi could understand it easily, because they were all ghosts, and they would stay the same appearance and age for their whole lives, so it was normal to only have the current year.
But why Zhu Zhu...
Lin Xi put the question aside for the moment and flipped through Zhu Zhu's file. Zhu Zhu's file was incredibly detailed, covering her entire life, from kindergarten onwards. She'd won awards every year, often taking first place, earning her the title of "genius." Even though it was just a file, and the tone should have been completely objective, serious, and simple, the author's partiality for Zhu Zhu was evident between the lines.
Lin Xi took out the file of Zhu Zhu's classmate for comparison, and turned to the detailed record page at the back, but only saw the word "death". The file folder was a good one, and it looked full, but every word was "death". When the light fell on it, Lin Xi even felt a little short of breath.
The deathly aura between the lines made Lin Xi, a living person, feel quite uncomfortable.
At this time, Shen Sangning beside him spoke at the right time: "Lin Xi, ten minutes have passed."
Lin Xi regained consciousness, glanced at Chen Sang Ning, and took a deep breath. Luckily, his wife was with him, otherwise she might have been so overwhelmed by the malice revealed between the lines that she would have forgotten the time and been caught red-handed by Teacher Gao. Lin Xi nodded and continued to look through the other people's files.
The other student files were no different from this student's. The folders looked thick, but every page was filled with the word "death." Only Zhu Zhu's was particularly different.
Lin Xi looked through Zhu Zhu's file. There was nothing special about it. It just mechanically recorded the awards Zhu Zhu had won from kindergarten to sixth grade. Then it was interrupted at a certain line, and there was no related information after that. It was as if Zhu Zhu was really dead.
"Wife, we should go."
Lin Xi nodded, took Shen Sang Ning's hand and walked out. But when they were about to reach the corridor, Shen Sang Ning grabbed Lin Xi, then directly picked her up horizontally, stepped on the fence and jumped down from the second floor. Her dress flew up, and she took the time to glare at Big Eyeball, threatening Big Eyeball not to pass in front of her.
Shoot from the front and bottom.
The big eyeball had no choice but to float above Shen Sangning. Shen Sangning grabbed the big eyeball and pulled it down directly.
Lin Xi was a little bit taken in by Chen Sang Ning's embrace at first, but knowing that Chen Sang Ning wouldn't do such a thing for no reason, she simply covered her mouth. As they landed quietly on the first floor, Lin Xi also heard the sound of the archive room upstairs being opened.
I understand. Teacher Gao is back.
But only Teacher Gao came back, without Alan Jones. Lin Xi didn't think Alan Jones would die here, his ability to respond was excellent, which Lin Xi knew from the last copy of the amusement park. They also agreed on a meeting place in advance, and Lin Xi took Shen Sang Ning to the agreed place.
Sure enough, Aaron Jones was not dead, but was standing there waiting for Lin Xi.
Lin Xi and Alan Jones exchanged information, and Alan Jones started speaking first.
According to what he had explained to Lin Xi, he waited for half an hour before turning on the main light switch in the lecture hall. He even waited in the lecture hall for a few seconds. Five minutes later, Teacher Gao came to Allen Jones. Her face was livid, and she asked Allen Jones: "Teacher Jones, what are you doing here?"
Aaron Jones said in a serious tone: "A student told me that someone in the class was bullying and locked another student in the lecture hall. For the sake of the students, I had to go to the lecture hall to look for the student. But as you can see now, I didn't find the student."
Teacher Gao's expression improved a little: "No students will come here, let's leave."
Alan Jones nodded, but when he was leaving, he deliberately stopped Teacher Gao and said, "Please wait a moment, my shoelaces are untied, let me tie them." Squatting down and exposing your back to a ghost is not a smart decision. Alan Jones understood this deeply, so he even put an iron plate on the upper of his shoes. It looks like a decoration, but it can actually be used to observe others.
Aaron Jones saw Teacher Gao's livid, terrifying face in the reflection of his shoe.
