Chapter 71 Boredom
Qin Mengmeng was a rebellious person and she always said things that the dormitory head and Teacher Wang didn't want to hear.
But the dormitory head and Teacher Wang are still a little different.
The dormitory head really has a conflict of interest with Qin Mengmeng.
Qin Mengmeng promised to buy her a new bedroom with bigger windows, more flowing white gauze curtains, and better new walls.
More importantly, she had not started construction yet, but had already demolished the dormitory director's original dormitory.
So she just snorted indignantly and said, "What's the use? You've read so many books, but you're still working in the decoration business. My dad never read any books, but he's also working in the decoration business."
Qin Mengmeng was silent.
The dormitory head is indeed smart. He hits the snake at its most vulnerable part.
"The problem is not with me." Qin Mengmeng said frankly: "I chose to do this because I like it. I don't see this as a problem."
This question really bothered her before. People with two completely different educational backgrounds, a graduate from a top university and a dropout from compulsory education, could appear on the same construction site, and the salary of the former might not even be as high as that of the latter.
The theory that studying is useless is gaining popularity, and a large part of the reason is rooted in this reality.
But Qin Mengmeng had already gotten over this problem.
"Let's talk about you." Qin Mengmeng threw the question to the dormitory head under the gaze of everyone.
"Student Lin, are you interested in explaining to us how you were able to bring the entire girls' dormitory under your own order?"
The dormitory head tilted his head slightly, a little hesitant.
She keenly sensed that there seemed to be a trap in this, but this was something that made her proud. She felt that not only was there nothing shameful about this matter, but more people should know about it.
That's her skill.
Qin Mengmeng raised her cell phone, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and revealed a very small smile.
"If you don't mind, I'm live streaming so others can listen too?"
The dormitory head raised his head, snorted softly, and said, "That's easy."

"When I first died, there were a lot of ghosts in the dormitory. They fought fiercely. There was even an old senior in 903. She wanted to destroy me when she saw me."
"That's normal, because two ghosts living in one dormitory is indeed a bit too crowded. Once you have experienced the taste of living alone, you will not want to continue living in a dormitory with multiple people."
"Of course, I won, she was dead for a long time, but she couldn't fight."
Qin Mengmeng interrupted her: "So, where did you learn to fight?"
The dormitory head frowned and said, "Actually, I don't know how to fight...but when I watch TV dramas, I—"
She made a sloppy gesture: "Just hit me like that."
Qin Mengmeng said calmly: "Isn't this considered a kind of learning?"
The dormitory head's eyes widened: "How can this be counted? I learned this from watching TV dramas."
By this time, all the adults present had understood what Qin Mengmeng wanted to say, except for the little boy, who didn't quite understand. He approached the physical education teacher and whispered, "Does watching TV count as studying?"
Because the night at Xincheng High School was too quiet, his voice, although very low, still reached Qin Mengmeng's ears.
Qin Mengmeng smiled and said, "Why not?"
"Then what?" Qin Mengmeng asked, "You said that before you died, the girls' dormitory had been fighting for a long time. Why did it suddenly stop when it came to you?"
The dormitory head said as a matter of course: "I don't like fighting. I won't fight with them. Whoever fights me will be eaten by me. Then those who stay are also pacifists who don't like fighting."
Qin Mengmeng asked: "Then before you came, there were no pacifists here?"
The dormitory head frowned and said, "That should be... that's it."
Qin Mengmeng said calmly: "It can't be like this. There must have been pacifists before, but they couldn't change the situation."
"Only you can."
The dormitory head looked at Qin Mengmeng for a longer time this time.
She even floated around Qin Mengmeng twice, but Qin Mengmeng's emotions remained stable and there was no wavering expression on her face.
"I feel..." the dormitory head said, "You seem to be praising me, but..."
But it seems out of place.
"I don't object to you saying that." The dormitory head shrugged and said, "I think I'm pretty good, too."
Qin Mengmeng smiled.
“Where exactly did you start?”
"Just, pick some like-minded friends from among so many ghosts, and then work together with friends to kill those who don't want to be our friends, and in the end, the ones left are all friends."
"It's hard to make friends with people. I'm afraid it won't work just by being sincere."
"Yes, you need to know how to judge people. There is a book that specifically talks about this—" The dormitory head suddenly understood: "Ah! This is what you are talking about."
Qin Mengmeng said calmly: "Everything in this world can't appear out of thin air, right?"
The dormitory head said, "The law of conservation of matter. I know this."
“It’s the same with knowledge,” Qin Mengmeng said. “Anything you know, from the big things like the earth is a sphere to the small things like how to pronounce a word, how to recognize people, how to make friends, and how to make coffee.”
“These aren’t things that are etched into people’s brains when they are born, right?”
The dormitory head curled his lips: "If you want to say that, I have no objection."
The kid leaned over to the PE teacher's ear and whispered, "So, playing games counts as studying?"
Qin Mengmeng said calmly: "Games are originally a kind of competition simulation."
The dormitory head suddenly shook his head: "No, I told you to go in."
She pointed a finger at Teacher Wang and said, "We were just talking about the college entrance examination!"
Qin Mengmeng said bluntly: "I don't agree with her either."
The dormitory head had seen Qin Mengmeng being chased by Teacher Wang just now. When he heard her say this, he really believed that she was objective and neutral, and he didn't know how to continue arguing with her.
But to just stop like that, I felt as if I was being suppressed, and I was not willing to accept that.
So he added: "Anyway, I hate exams. I don't want to take any more exams."
"You are already dead, so of course you don't have to take the exam again."
Wouldn’t it be tragic if people had to continue taking exams after they died?
It’s not like there’s a university to go to in the underworld.
The dormitory heads and their friends couldn’t even leave Xincheng High School.
Teacher Wang was like a cloud of mist, barely able to maintain his human form. He could not help but sigh and said, "I understand this principle... But, what else can those children do besides taking exams when they are trapped in New Town High School?"
Teacher Wang's voice dissipated in the quiet moonlight.
No one reacted, but the ghosts remained silent.
The most terrifying thing in the world is definitely not death. Pain, hunger, and disease are just at the top of the list. Different people have their own fears.
But for ghosts who have transcended death and pain, there is only one thing that is truly terrifying in this world.
Nothing to do.
Their day also has twenty-four hours, but their life is far more than a hundred years.
At the same time, they are earthbound spirits.
It is difficult for them to leave the place where they were born, unless that place has disappeared.
This means that when the dormitory head opened her eyes in the underworld of New Town High School, she had been living in that girls' dormitory building.
She will not feel hungry, does not need to eat, and does not need to face physiological problems such as eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating.
So she wandered around the girls' dormitory building with her eyes open all day, twenty-four hours a day.
She had a few friends and a past memory of eighteen years of her life to ruminate on day and night.
But there is nothing more new.
She does this all day, every day.
Ruminating on the same memories, living in the same environment, doing the same things - such ordinary boredom, combined with enough time, is enough to drive anyone crazy.
"We have to find something for the children to do." Teacher Wang whispered, "If there are no exams, what else can we do?"
Qin Mengmeng was silent.
This is actually a very serious issue.
She could laugh at Teacher Wang for taking the test just for the sake of taking the test, then accuse her of doing something wrong and scold her. No one on the scene would object to her doing this, as Teacher Wang was already deserted by everyone and no longer posed any threat. It would be better for everyone if she just brushed off her question and didn't answer it.
But she decided to face the problem with sincerity.
"I don't know," she said.
Ghosts, as creatures, are freed from all physiological restrictions after death and no longer need to work like slaves to fill their stomachs.
It is a species where no one needs to work.
So, how do they pass their time when they’re not starring in horror movies?
You can't be scaring people, eating people, and eating each other 24 hours a day, right? After all, there aren't that many people. Before Qin Mengmeng came to the live broadcast room, an average of one anchor was sent to Xincheng High School every day.
But there is only one a day, which is not enough to entertain all the ghosts in New Town High School.
"What do you usually do?" Qin Mengmeng asked.
The physical education teacher shrugged and said, "I will count how many leaves there are on the grass in the playground."
The dormitory head said darkly, "I've only read in books that widows would throw beans on the ground and then pick them up again, so that they could spend the sleepless nights alone."
Teacher Wang said: "I give the questions, the children do the questions, and we have class."
Qin Mengmeng looked at the dormitory head, who said expressionlessly, "That's why I have so many friends who govern democratically."
She was referring to the little female ghosts.
“We would play games together, even though the games were boring.”
At this time, only the little ghost was left.
The little ghost looked around and said awkwardly: "Actually, I didn't think that much. I just stayed there, and then people kept appearing in front of me..."
The dormitory head looked surprised and asked, "Is this the benefit of being an idiot?"
Little ghost: “.”
