The Silent and Eerie School (30)
Seeing two identical faces blocking his way, the police officer got really angry.
These students are just messing around!
Police: "You—"
[1 minute remaining.]
"I found it!!!"
Finally, a piece of white meat was found on the black clod of earth on the shovel.
In that instant, Huang Chenchuan's face was covered in tears, as if he had lost all his strength, and he fell helplessly downwards.
Wang Fan quickly reached out and scooped him up under his armpit, whispering in a hoarse voice, "It's over, it's over..."
"it's all over......"
The twins in front of him then took a step back to each side. Before the police could even reprimand them, they saw a large pit dug in the rose field in front of them. Just like the photos the students had given him, the pit was filled with body parts piled up in the soil.
Two hands were entwined by roots, looking as if they were struggling to climb out.
Finally, the thriving roses broke through the black soil and basked in the sunlight.
A gust of wind blew by, and the roses in the huge rose field swayed in the wind, like bloodied hands accusing Shengze Middle School. The fragrance of the roses was so strong that it even had a bitter taste, making people dizzy.
[Countdown has ended.]
Congratulations to the player for successfully completing the Deathmatch mode.
......
Within a short time, Shengze Middle School was surrounded and sealed off by special police. All the faculty and staff in the school were taken into custody, and the police searched through the carefully guarded archives in the school history museum one by one. Only the bewildered parents and passersby were left anxiously waiting outside Shengze Middle School.
The mechanical voice sounded again.
Shengze Middle School is a renowned school, attracting numerous parents with its exceptionally high college entrance examination pass rate and strict management. As the school's reputation grows, more and more parents send their children there, even from other provinces, hoping to help their children correct bad habits and smoothly advance to higher education.
However, as the number of students increased, the school administrators became increasingly dissatisfied and demanded high tuition and administration fees from outsiders.
All tuition and administrative fees were embezzled by the administrators, and the students' living conditions deteriorated. This included substandard school uniforms, bland meals, and excessive school labor...
The high-pressure management style has led to increasing student dissatisfaction, with some students even falling ill or committing suicide due to excessive control. The students initially thought this would garner attention and change from the teachers, but instead, it only resulted in even stricter and more suffocating management.
[Meal times, sleep times, facial expressions in class, even the way you hold a pen must be exactly the same... All students here have become machines. Their personalities are gradually worn down and erased by one rule after another. Everyone becomes silent, not knowing what else they can do but obey.]
At St. Zee High School, students are not required to be individualistic or have any novel ideas; the only requirement is to follow the school's rules.
Shh—don't talk, and remember to behave well at school.
Remember, students who break the rules will be punished.
[The first instance, "The Silent School," has now ended.]
Congratulations to player Li Su for successfully discovering and revealing the secret of Shengze Middle School.
The reward is 2000 points, and player Li Su has a total of 2000 points remaining.
Surviving players in instance 1: 20.
As the mechanical sound faded, before Li Su could react, the scene before her eyes began to spin and distort, and her head immediately began to spin.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely white space.
A white bed, a white table, white water glasses... everything in sight is white.
Everything before her eyes made Li Su feel somewhat dazed.
Wasn't he still at Saint Ze High School? The police were still working together to dig out one player's corpse after another from the giant pit.
Where is he now? Where did Huang Chenchuan and the others go?
Li Su lifted the covers and found a fluffy little sheep slipper on the bedside table, which was also white.
Li Su hesitated for a moment before putting it on and walking to the mirror to see how she looked.
Ironically, he lost his memory along with his own face, and even forgot what he looked like.
The boy in the mirror had red lips and white teeth, round almond-shaped eyes, a delicate upturned nose, and very light-colored pupils, so light that you could even see the lines inside. His black hair was curled with a slight wave.
Li Su flicked her excessively long sleeves, and the collar of her shirt was also opened up to her chest.
Li Su lowered his eyes, guessing that these probably weren't his clothes. The size was completely different from his build.
A familiar mechanical voice sounded: [Congratulations to player Li Su for successfully clearing the first dungeon!]
Li Su wasn't in a very high mood, but she could tell that the system's voice was more cheerful than before, and seemed to carry a hint of happiness.
Li Su: "Where are they?"
Wang Fan, Huang Chenchuan, Jiang Xianing, Li Xue... Li Su slowly frowned. He should have two more teammates, but what were their names?
Li Su suddenly realized that he couldn't remember them, and he couldn't even recall the faces of those two people in his mind.
Huang Chenchuan and the others looked very clear, but the other two faces were as if they were covered by a white veil, blurry and impossible for him to see clearly.
[After successfully completing the game, all players will have their memories erased by the system and be sent back to their original world. They will only have game-related memories when they enter the game. Sizzle... Sizzle... Sizzle...] The first half of the system's statement was normal, but the latter part became extremely strange.
It's like someone being choked.
Li Su looked up at herself in the mirror again, her voice soft: "Then why wasn't my memory erased? Where is this? Did I live here before?"
The system fell silent.
He looked at himself in the mirror and waited for a long time, but didn't hear another word.
Li Su slipped on her fluffy slippers and crawled back into bed.
Everyone else has gone home, and now he's all alone again. He doesn't know why, he doesn't know where he is, and he doesn't know how long he'll have to stay here...
Qi Wujin looked at the boy curled up on the bed in front of him on the screen and felt a pang of sadness. He was just a wall away from Li Su. He wanted to go over and tell Li Su that he was not alone and that he was here with her.
But he cannot.
Even his identity in the first instance—whether as the school doctor, male teacher, or player Qi Zui and Qi Ye—will disappear, leaving only a blurry figure. Everyone's memories, including those of the livestream viewers, will be altered. In everyone's memory, the behavior of any role he played will become identical to that of an ordinary NPC or player, and no one will notice anything amiss.
Of course, this setting was modified by Qi Wujin himself, in order to avoid being discovered by the mainframe.
Because he wasn't human to begin with, he was just a main system. In the eyes of the main brain, it was impossible for the main system of the game to have a human form outside of the game. So after Qi Wujin separated from consciousness, he modified the relevant program settings so that the main brain would not be able to detect his abnormality.
Only in this way can he buy more time to seize supreme control, truly destroy the mastermind, and completely save Li Su.
However, all of this still ruled out Li Su.
Qi Wujin hesitated for a long time but ultimately couldn't bear to alter the memories in Li Su's mind. This was his selfish wish; he wanted Li Su to remember everything they had experienced together. However, Qi Wujin still carefully erased his appearance from the dungeon. Only in this way could he avoid being unable to appear by Li Su's side under a different identity next time, and avoid arousing Li Su's suspicion, after all, his darling was very clever.
Qi Wujin's gaze fell once again on the tiny figure on the screen.
In the system space, everything is closer to the game's main brain, so the room Li Su is currently in was specially designed by him. It can shield the main brain's monitoring, like a bug, independent and uncontrolled within the entire system.
Of course, the price is that you can't go out.
So Li Su's room has no door and no window; it's like a small, square box.
Li Su lay on the bed and fell asleep without realizing it. When he woke up again, he found fresh food on the table: a glass of milk, a fruit platter, and a plate of tomato beef spaghetti, all of which were still steaming.
The entire room was white except for the food; only these items were colorful.
Li Su walked to the dining table and stood there, looking down at the food on the table.
[The system space will provide food for stranded players; you can eat it without worry.] The system reappeared, glossing over all his previous questions by avoiding the main issues.
Li Su looked up and found nothing unusual in the room; there was no way anyone could have entered his room.
There aren't even any doors or windows here.
The system then asked: "Don't you like it? You can tell me what kind of food you like..."
"No need." Li Su interrupted the system and sat down at the table to savor the food in small bites.
Qi Wujin, who was watching Li Su eat through a screen, finally showed his first smile since leaving the game.
Li Su silently ate the food in front of him. He had to admit that although the source of the food was unknown, it suited his taste very well.
After eating most of her food, Li Su lay back down on the bed and pulled the blanket over her head.
In reality, he secretly used his fingers to pry open the blanket into a tiny, tiny gap.
He wondered if the food had been delivered by someone, just like the male teacher in the game who was strange to him. Although Li Su couldn't remember what he looked like anymore, he still remembered everything that had happened between them.
But as he waited and waited, no one came into the room. Suddenly, drowsiness washed over him again, and Li Su unconsciously closed his eyes.
After he fell into a deep sleep, a slender hand carefully lifted the blanket.
“Su Su…”
Qi Wujin squatted down beside Li Su, his fingertips gently stroking the boy's soft, white cheeks, before slowly lowering his head to press his lips against the two full lips in front of him.
"Susu, wait for me a little longer..."
