Cheng Shuang fumbled for that line of text, trying hard to recall everything that had happened in the library, afraid of missing any suspicious points.
Oh, and there was singing!
The song sung by the pig-headed monster is about three mischievous children: A, B, and C.
It mentions Zhongshan wolves.
The little girl vaguely remembered a few lines of lyrics, something about A loving B, and B loving C. C, angry, killed A and took his anger out on B, who then ran away from home, attracting the wolf in sheep's clothing. That night, everyone died!
She drew a simple line diagram in her notebook because she had forgotten some of the lyrics and couldn't quite understand the connections between them, but she had a gut feeling that these weren't just random songs.
Unfortunately, the atmosphere was tense at the time, so Cheng Shuang couldn't remember much. Besides, the pig-headed monster's singing was not loud and was seriously off-key, so bad it hurt her ears. She couldn't hear everything he was looking for.
The little girl underlined B's name heavily. The lyrics say that everyone is dead, which definitely means more than just B and C. If it's just two people, the word "everyone" is not appropriate. In general, "everyone" refers to at least three or more people.
If we were to make a bold assumption, the school followed the tragic path of many other institutions of higher learning, suffering destruction and loss of life overnight, and this was undoubtedly related to the wolf in sheep's clothing brought by this little B.
But why would they target a school that has been cultivating talent for centuries and is filled with nothing but books and students?
During the war years, it was possible that a few refugees with nowhere to go might have fled to escape the disaster. However, the disparity in strength between a few refugees and an entire school of students was too great. Even if they were all girls, it was impossible for them to be completely captured and slaughtered, resulting in the death of all the teachers and students in one night.
Therefore, Zhongshan Wolf must have had a plan all along.
What's the point?
The principal's secrets and pride?
Cheng Shuang immediately thought of the legend of Solomon's treasure. In various movies and books, these treasures, besides directly referring to sacred objects and treasures such as the Ark of the Covenant, actually have another explanation: the so-called treasure of Solomon is just a summary of King Solomon's wisdom and knowledge throughout his life, which is why it 'disappeared'. No matter how much money and resources are used, no trace can be found because it was never real gold or silver.
So, the wolf from Zhongshan was after a 'treasure'?
Since the principal's secret appeared in 'The Call from Time,' isn't the content of this published book already a well-known secret?
Why did Little B go to all this trouble?
Unless only one copy of this book was ever published, and it was originally someone's private collection that accidentally appeared in a library and was seen by Little B, then the tragedy that followed would not have occurred.
The secret that Little B possessed was once again stolen by the scheming Zhongshan Wolf. Using this as leverage, Zhongshan Wolf came to the school, taking all the students hostage, to deceive or threaten... the principal, in order to achieve his goals. Perhaps the principal, unwilling to be manipulated, angered Zhongshan Wolf, or perhaps what Zhongshan Wolf desired was beyond the principal's means; in any case, they couldn't reach an agreement, and in a fit of rage, Zhongshan Wolf killed him to silence him.
Thinking of the bloodstains on the dean's neck, the charred body of the homeroom teacher, the bloody hole in the class monitor's abdomen, and the jawless face of the nun who taught English... the ways of dying were all different, but the only one that was impossible was suicide.
Suddenly, the view in front of the book went dark. Cheng Shuang looked up warily and saw Xiong Baobao bending over, baring his teeth, making a silent threatening gesture, trying to stop someone from getting close.
The newcomer tilted her head and made a shushing gesture to the little girl. A relieved smile appeared on her beautiful face, and she silently opened her lips: "It's really not easy. Luckily, we met again!"
Liao Yuewei?
Has she shrunk too?
Cheng Shuang patted her bodyguard-like teddy bear, which immediately straightened up obediently, allowing Liao Yuewei to slowly approach.
When Liao Yuewei saw a head pop out from beside the bear cub, she opened her mouth slightly in surprise, "What's going on?" She took half a step back, clearly shocked by the sight of two Cheng Shuangs.
The girl with glasses stepped out from behind the teddy bear, waved to Liao Yuewei in a friendly manner, and smiled sweetly.
Liao Yuewei's expression grew more serious. She looked at Cheng Shuang and then at the girl with glasses. Perhaps because they weren't very familiar with each other, she couldn't recognize which one was the girl in real life for a moment.
"...What happened, Luo Qi?" she asked tentatively in a low voice. "How come you've shrunk too? Did you go to the dance studio?"
Cheng Shuang's eyes flickered slightly. "Hmm, I went to the dance studio, but I didn't see you. Where did you go after that?"
Liao Yuewei was very wary, her eyes constantly shifting between Cheng Shuang and the girl with glasses. Her tone was unsteady. "I was dragged to another dance studio by the person in the mirror and took several dance classes with them." She smiled bitterly, rolled up her tight sleeves to reveal her bruised and battered arms. "If I didn't have a dance background, I probably would have been punished to the point of being covered in sores by the dance teacher."
"Then I discovered the mirror..." Liao Yuewei stopped abruptly, raising her long eyebrows, "Tell me about yourself!" She glanced down at her notebook, "Looks like you've already been to the library, so why did you come back here?"
"I don't know how I got back!" The little girl scratched her head, looking very confused, and started writing and drawing in her notebook.
Liao Yuewei leaned closer curiously. "Can I take a look?" Then she glanced at the girl with glasses and whispered, "Who is it? You didn't bring the ghost out of the mirror, did you?"
Cheng Shuang generously unfolded the notebook, held it up and handed it to her, asking in return, "Isn't the ghost in the mirror following you?"
"I fulfilled all the dance teacher's requirements, but the reflection in the mirror failed." The beautiful woman smiled faintly, her tone subtly smug.
The little girl suddenly realized, "So that's how I get rid of it!"
The two were speaking too softly, and even if the girl with glasses wanted to get closer to eavesdrop, she couldn't. She was completely blocked by the bear cub. The cat smiled at the other person with great admiration. The smile was extremely sweet, and her eight little teeth looked beautiful in the dim light.
The girl with glasses grinned, the smile deepening slightly beyond her usual curve. Her sweet smile carried a hint of awkwardness. She rubbed her cheek in dissatisfaction and tried a few more times until her expression became more and more natural.
Liao Yuewei frowned and glanced at it twice before ignoring it. Under the little girl's trusting gaze, she began to look at the contents of the notebook in her hand. This page happened to contain the lyrics of the song sung by the pig-headed monster. She then frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Why are you writing this down?"
"I think this song seems to be related to the demise of schools."
"Love and romance?" Liao Yuewei asked in disbelief. "Is that why the students at the school..." She made a gesture of slitting her throat.
Cheng Shuang held the notebook and looked at it carefully. Shouldn't the focus be on the wolf in sheep's clothing...?
The little girl touched her nose and nodded earnestly, "That's exactly why!"
Liao Yuewei was clearly disappointed, but she quickly cheered up and pointed to the instrument panel, "We can't stay in the library for too long. They weren't showing up just now, but the lights here came on after you came in, and then they appeared." She was referring to the pig-headed monster's eyes.
