Chapter 208 Chapter 208
"Hmm? Test papers?" Park Yun-jae hid the axe behind his body so that the three could not see him. "Are you looking for test papers? There are test papers everywhere here. Which subject are you looking for?"
"Ah? Don't make such a joke." The senior boy tapped his palm lightly with a wooden stick. "I don't know what year or class you are from, but everyone got the same 'graduation method' from the puppet 'teacher'."
Graduation... method?
A trace of confusion appeared on Park Yun-jae's face.
His companions also looked puzzled.
"It doesn't look like that." The senior boy tilted his head slightly and scanned the office. "Forget it, let's not talk about the test paper for now. Do you know about carnivorous rabbits?"
Park Yun and others: …
Another strange name.
Carnivorous rabbit, can rabbits eat meat?
Wait, rabbit?
Lee Rabbit?
This name immediately popped up in Park Yun's mind. Not only him, but the other three also thought of the strange transfer student, the pink-haired boy who seemed to scare Qi Yi.
The boy noticed the change in their expressions, so he walked up to them and said threateningly, "Looks like you have a clue, tell me if you don't want to be scolded."
The three senior boys holding the sticks were tall, almost a head taller than Park Yun-jae, the tallest among them, and looked very intimidating. Park Yun-jae hesitated for only half a second before deciding to tell them, "I don't know what a carnivorous rabbit is. But speaking of the word rabbit, there happens to be a transfer student in our class who just came a few days ago, and his name is Lee Rabbit."
"Ah?" The senior boy was stunned. "There's a rabbit in the name? There are people who use 'rabbit' as their name."
"How strange." The boy holding the stick also laughed, "Aren't all names like '俊' or '賢'? Rabbit, what a weak name."
Park Yoon-jae: "He can kick a boy who is stronger than him away with one kick. Judging from his fighting ability, I don't think he is a weak rabbit."
And from the perspective of danger, it is not harmless either, and is more like the ferocious carnivorous rabbit mentioned by the seniors.
At least Park Yun-jae didn't want to provoke anyone. Even when his long-time "friend" Kim Hyun-jun was threatened by Lee Tu to stay, Park Yun-jae pretended not to see it and left without saying a word.
He didn't know whether the transfer student was a human, but at least he was definitely not ordinary.
If these people want to die, let them do it.
While the senior boy holding the stick was talking to Park Yun, his two companions had already started looking for the "test papers". They searched through the test papers scattered on the table and the ground. However, because there were too many test papers, it was a bit of a headache to find them.
"Mad, they said that I would know the test paper as soon as I saw it. What kind of test paper is it? Biology? Physics? Math?" He complained while searching.
"Wait, what is this?" Someone flipped over a piece of paper. "Boss, is this the test paper we're looking for? It's full of weird questions."
"What?" The senior boy walked over and took a look. "A quiz in class? The first question is, why is Han Xiuzhen always bullied... Hey, what kind of quiz is this? A survey quiz about bullying? Have you filled out this thing before?"
Park Yun gathered together with a few others, then slowly backed away and distanced himself from the three of them.
"This is the test paper we are looking for." said a senior boy.
The boy holding the stick nodded: "Maybe. But the answer space on this test paper is completely blank. Is that what we are supposed to fill in?"
Park Yun-jae scanned the boy's hand. He saw this test paper when he was looking for the card. It was a blank test paper, probably a backup for those test papers. Because he had already answered the questions and handed in the test paper, even if he saw a blank copy in the office, Park Yun-jae didn't think it was strange, and he didn't have any interest. He just glanced at it and passed it by.
And these people are looking for these things. It seems that different classes have different ways to leave school.
Perhaps it was just that their class, with Han Soo-jung in it, had some special test questions.
Of course, this is not a good thing.
First of all, I would like to point out that their class may have become prey to people from other classes.
"Mr. Mad, who is Han Soo-jung?" the senior boy frowned and asked his two companions.
"It seems to be the girl who died some time ago. She was bullied."
"I remember there were a lot of bad rumors, and she seemed to have harassed Lee Min-woo who was in our class."
"There are many girls who like Lee Min Woo. Which one is it? The one with long hair or the one with short hair?"
"And the last question is, who killed Han Xiuzhen?" The senior boy sneered, "I'm not surprised at all that there is a murderer in this rubbish school. This is the 'evil' we want to eliminate."
After saying this, he seemed to have just remembered Park Yun-jae's existence, and turned to ask them: "Hey, although I think most of you don't know, let me ask you, do you know who killed Han Soo-jung?"
Park Yun and the others were silent.
Several people looked at each other, their faces somewhat embarrassed.
The senior boy, who originally had no expectations, showed a hint of surprise: "It seems you know, this is really unexpected, could it be that Han Xiuzhen is in your class?"
Park Yun's expression became even uglier in front of the others.
"Really?" The senior boy laughed out loud. "I really won the jackpot. I'm so lucky. It seems that God let me leave here alive. Tell me the truth. When I get out, I will definitely thank you very much."
Several people looked at Park Yun-jae, the invisible leader of this small group.
After thinking for a few seconds, Park Yoon said, "I'm not really sure who killed Han Soo-jung, but I'm sure that her death was related to Ahn Yoo-hee."
"An Youxi, what does he look like?"
"She is about 1.6 meters tall, thin, with long hair and side bangs." Park Yun-jae tapped the corners of his mouth twice, "There are two very small moles here, not very noticeable."
"Okay, thank you very much." The senior boy waved his hand, "I'll treat you to dinner after you get out alive."
After that, the three of them left the office.
Several people in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yun Jae, if you tell them this, something bad will happen to Ahn Yoo Hee and the others."
Pu Yun's eyes were slightly cold: "What does it have to do with me? She has done this herself, so she should bear the consequences herself."
He hasn't yet come to terms with Ahn Yoo-hee for killing Han Soo-jung and causing the incident, so he's quite generous.
"Brother Yunzai, I found the second card." The boy crawled out from under the table, holding up a golden card and said excitedly, "Sure enough, there is a second card here. My life is saved!"
His eyes were full of excitement.
However, his excited gaze froze when he saw the person on the front of the card.
On the card, a woman with semi-long hair is covering her hands with a campus shrouded in a translucent black mysterious area, and the face of this woman who seems to be embracing the world is the long-dead Han Soo-jung.
A line of words on the back: The returning souls bring the final elegy to the world.
Han Soo-jung's face is one that no one will ever forget and no one will ever mistake.
"This is indeed the face of a classmate." Park Yun said after looking at the card.
I just don't know which card my face will be on.
"Brother Yunjae, can we switch?" The boy who found the card looked at Park Yunjae expectantly, "I don't dare to kick this card into my pocket."
"No." Park Yun refused in a second.
Just kidding, you don't want to bring it, but do I want to?
"You don't want to give it to me." The other two classmates said.
They haven't found anything yet.
"No, forget it, I'll keep it." It's better to have something than nothing.
With it, you can leave the campus and return to your warm home.
"We probably won't be able to find any other cards here. Let's go and look somewhere else," Park Yun-jae said.
"Where are you going?"
"Well...the art classroom." Park Yun said.
"Well... let's change the place, Yun-jae." A classmate whispered, "Han Soo-jung's favorite place to go during recess was the art classroom."
She is a student with a specialty in art. In this elite school, she has no friends and spends most of her free time on art. Until she was bullied by Ahn Yoo-hee and had no chance to breathe, Cai Shao picked up the paintbrush.
He was really afraid of seeing Han Soo-jung's ghost there.
"Okay, let's go to the gymnasium." Park Yun-jae changed the topic.
*
Li Tu finally finished flipping through the notebook in his hand, stood up excitedly, and picked up his weapon: "Let's go, it's time to set off."
Kim Hyun-jun: "Ah? Where are you going?"
"Art classroom." Li Tu replied.
"Ah? Oh." Jin Xianjun nodded and stood up, then suddenly remembered something and stiffened, "Art classroom? Why... go there?"
As an elite school with high tuition fees, this school naturally prepares various equipment and classrooms for students to cultivate their various interests and specialties. Although it is very bad at character education, it is undoubtedly worthy of the high tuition fees it collects every year in terms of talent education.
Music classroom, art classroom, dance studio, biology experiment classroom, physics laboratory, etc.
Except for the rooms containing instruments and dangerous drugs, which are locked on weekdays, the rest of the classrooms are completely open. Anyone who needs can go in and use the equipment inside.
The art classroom, a room filled with plaster statues for copying paintings, was once Han Xiuzhen's favorite place to spend her spare time. She preferred to be with these motionless sculptures and quietly paint their silent beauty with her pen rather than with living people who spoke ill of her.
After Han Soo-jung died, a rumor spread in the art studio that "a girl would cry and paint here in the middle of the night."
Of course, rumors are just rumors, no one takes them seriously, and no one deliberately avoids this art classroom.
But now that the strange realm has arrived, it is a scary place where Han Soo-jung may reappear at any time, so generally no one would be willing to get close to it.
"Let's go." Seeing Jin Xianjun standing there in a daze, Li Tu smiled and waved the weapon in his hand, "Are you scared? Are you guilty?"
"Why should I feel guilty?" Jin Xianjun mustered up his courage and put the hammer on his waist. "I didn't do anything."
"Yeah." Li Tu smiled meaningfully, "You didn't do anything."
Nothing was done, either for good or bad.
The art classroom is in the B teaching building next door. There is a corridor connecting the two teaching buildings on the second floor. On the way to the next building, I met other students on the way, but they were unfamiliar faces.
They saw Li Tu and Jin Xianjun and stopped them, asking anxiously, "Did you find the test paper?"
Jin Xianjun looked at them with a bewildered expression. Test papers? What test papers are they looking for at this time?
Li Tu didn't seem very surprised. He replied, "You can find the test paper in the teacher's office. But if you want to find the completed test paper, you have to go to a more unexpected place. For example, the rooftop, or the trees, or the back of the dormitory building."
"Have you found it?" the other party asked hurriedly.
"No, I plan to 'graduate' in other ways." Li Tu said with a smile, "For example, I can have a good chat with the owner of this strange domain, maybe it will be willing to let me go?"
"You're simply crazy. We can't handle that at all." After muttering, those students left in a hurry and headed towards the teacher's office.
Seeing their figures fade away, Jin Xianjun asked, "What were they talking about just now? What test paper?"
"The 'leave conditions' that other classes received were different from ours." Li Tu continued walking forward, "They are looking for the test papers that we have answered."
Jin Xianjun: "What are you looking for this for?"
"Solve the puzzle, get the answer from the test paper, know who should be killed, kill them, and then leave here." Li Tu hummed an unsound tune, "It's really evil and weird, forcing people to kill each other."
Jin Xianjun lowered his eyes. He no longer wanted to ask the pink-haired boy how he knew all this.
"What a bad guy, he even included me in the conditions for passing the level." Li Tu pouted with dissatisfaction, "I was so kind and did nothing all along, leaving it time for 'revenge', but he still wanted to plot against me."
"This feeling, is it like feeding a donkey with kindness? Oh, no, weirdness doesn't have any 'kindness' at all." Li Tu put his finger on his chin.
When we arrived at Building B, we heard a noisy sound coming from the front. When we listened carefully, we found that it was a quarrel.
“I discovered this first.”
"Don't be ridiculous. If I hadn't helped you before..."
“This card belongs to me.”
"There's still time, both of you stop arguing."
"Wait, what are you doing?"
"ah--"
The sound behind made people feel cold on the back. Jin Xianjun looked at Li Tu quietly and found that the pink-haired boy's mouth was raised coldly.
"Look, it's been less than an hour and people have already started killing each other." As he said that, the pink-haired boy walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
Jin Xianjun hurriedly followed, and soon they came to the corner and saw three people arguing.
No, there were already two of them. The third person had a utility knife stuck in his neck and fell to the ground, dead.
Jin Xianjun knew all three of them, they were classmates. One of them was called up by the Chinese teacher like himself and was given a weapon, a utility knife.
Kim Hyun-jun subconsciously touched the hammer on his lower back.
This is the weapon that the Chinese teacher handed to them in front of the whole class...
The attacker was also a little panicked by this sudden change. He pulled out a utility knife and watched his former classmate fall to the ground with blood gushing out of his neck, his heart beating very fast.
But he immediately calmed down and picked up the golden card on the ground.
The front of the card depicts two people holding hands. Both are black silhouettes with no faces depicted. One can only tell from their hairstyle and posture that one is a man and the other is a woman. The two people who look like lovers each hold a knife in their other hand, which is hidden behind their backs.
When the card was turned over, it read: False love is doomed to a future of betrayal.
He wiped the blood off the card and put it away. The boy then noticed Li Tu and Jin Xianjun who had just come over.
He waved the box cutter at the two men and said, "Don't tell anyone, understand?"
He then swung the knife at another companion's neck and said, "You too, don't come over here."
Then he turned and ran towards the school gate. Jin Xianjun could still hear his excited laughter: "I'm out! I can finally go out!"
Jin Xianjun frowned.
The window in the corridor could see the direction of the school gate. He came to the window and watched the classmate who had committed the murder excitedly rushing towards the school gate holding a card.
Jin Xianjun noticed that there were people looking at other windows as well. They were also quietly observing whether anyone could really leave the school by meeting the conditions.
The Chinese teacher did not show up. Only the student was standing at the school gate holding the card and shouting that he was allowed out and that he had passed the test.
Half a minute later, the school gate opened, and the student rushed out of the school and disappeared in the thick fog outside the school.
He got away alive?
Or was it swallowed up by the thick fog?
Everyone was guessing, and Jin Xianjun also looked at Li Tu. He thought that the pink-haired boy must know the answer.
Li Tu smiled and said, "He left."
Jin Xianjun and another boy present widened their eyes slightly.
"Are you telling the truth?" the boy asked excitedly, "Did he really leave the strange realm?"
Li Tu nodded: "Yes, he did leave the strange domain."
"Ah...I see. I have to go find some cards. We don't have many left." The boy muttered to himself. He stepped over the corpse and walked away quickly.
Only the dead student was lying on the ground with his body twisted and his eyes wide open, just like Han Soo-jung who died that year.
In the weird live broadcast room, a heated discussion started again in the comment section.
[Oh my god, did he really leave? ]
[This is the first time that a hostage has been released on his own initiative by the core of the mysterious domain.]
[Hostage... that's the term. But it is indeed the first time since the emergence of the strange domain that someone has left before the strange domain is resolved.]
【Really?】
[If this is true, then when I encounter a weird domain in the future, I can find a way to make deals with the weird in the weird domain...]
【no!!】
【Ah? What's not? 】
[I was outside the strange area of Chengkai Middle School. Someone in my family was also in the strange area, so I was waiting outside! That student did come out, but he didn't come out alive.]
What does it mean?
[That’s right, he came out in pieces. Just like rain, blood and body parts fell from the sky. I almost vomited when I saw it.]
[I’m going——]
[Come to think of it, whether it was the teacher or the puppet, they just said that if the conditions were met, we could 'end school' and 'graduate'. They just said to leave the school, but they didn't say that we could leave the school alive.]
【Isn’t this a fraud? 】
[It's just a word game. The question is, did he leave the strange world and the campus?]
[This is fucking terrible. It would be better to just continue living in this weird place. ]
[So, whether it's finding the card or solving the 'crime', it's all a trick to force people to kill each other. There's no way to correctly leave the weird realm.]
[Isn't there a way to clear the level that the puppet mentioned? Solve the core weirdness.]
【It would be strange if they could do it. 】
【Or get rid of Li Tu? 】
[Killing Li Tu is also a wrong clearance condition. It only means leaving the campus, not leaving the campus alive. 】
[It is impossible to solve Li Tu. Between S-level weirdness and A-level weirdness in the weird domain, A-level weirdness is more likely to be solved.]
【This weird area is both interesting and weird. 】
【Wow, someone killed each other again. 】
[The game has only started for half an hour. Are we too impatient? Is human nature so fragile? ]
[It is not that human nature cannot stand the test, but that the people in this school cannot stand the test.]
[You are right. In a peaceful campus, they will bully others to death. When it comes to life and death, don't expect them to be kind.]
[You don’t even need to watch to know what tragedy will happen next. 】
[People who died in this strange land probably died at the hands of their own kind, not by strange people.]
【Sometimes people are more dangerous than weird.】
