Chapter 68 Exile No. 1 Middle School (5)

——"Please save us! Save us!"

Qi Jiu stared at the crooked bloody words on the note and opened his eyes slightly.

This was an unexpected development.

The door of Classroom 302 has been tightly closed, and the system has announced that the crisis has been completely resolved. However, Qi Gu's scalp was slightly numb at this moment, and he finally felt a sense of terror.

He speculated that there are two possibilities for the evil spirits haunting the teaching building:

The first is the "problem students" who studied in this exiled middle school. The school used the name of a fully enclosed boarding house to brutally treat the students enclosed here.

The students were tortured to death and turned into evil spirits. The school was afraid and trapped the evil spirits in the teaching building area in some way. Therefore, on the eve of the new students' entrance, the school asked a trainee teacher who knew nothing to come and sacrifice.

These evil spirits retain the painful memories of their lives to a certain extent, so even after they are dead, students who have no contact with outsiders are still trying to ask for help from their "delivery boy";

The second is the bullied faculty and staff. They are also trapped here until they die and become evil spirits. The evil spirits who retain their memories and fears of life habitually seek outsiders for help;

At this time, Qi Qiu was more inclined to the first possibility. Judging from the rules and regulations formulated in the "Night Patrol Rules", the school was obviously aware of this matter. They specially asked the intern teachers to come to patrol the night, maybe just to pass the sacrifice "

The behavior of "teacher" can temporarily calm the anger of evil spirits.

But what the truth is still needs more clues to confirm.

Qi Jiu is more concerned about another thing now.

The new student who will enroll tomorrow is obviously another player. If it is the first possibility, as the school's intern teacher, isn't his position opposite to other players?

If this is the case, then it would make sense that the system mentioned when it released the main quest, "Travellers are invited to unlock their own main quest by unlocking the dungeon exploration level"...

What is the task of the student player? How to break the game? Are there any other faculty players here besides him?

It seems that this copy is a bit tricky...

Qi Jiu put the note away and continued to patrol the night. The rest of the night was calm and nothing happened.

It wasn't until nearly four o'clock in the morning that Qi Jiu encountered the ghost hitting the wall mentioned in the "Night Watch Rules".

He found that he had been walking around in Building 2. In his mind, he had clearly walked in the direction of another building. When he looked back at the building sign, he found that he had been walking around in circles.

Qi Jiu was not in a hurry. He took out a glass bottle of plasma that he collected in the middle of the night and sprinkled it around. Soon, he successfully left the No. 2 teaching building.

Since getting the note, the evil spirits in the teaching building area seem to be very polite to him, the "delivery man".

The sky is short in summer, and at four o'clock in the morning, the eastern skyline is dimly exposed to dawn.

The rotten smell in the air gradually faded as the night went by, replaced by the smell of dawn dew.

It's finally coming to an end.

Qi Ku packed up his things and left the teaching building area and walked back.

[Congratulations on successfully completing the side mission "Teaching Building Night Patrol*1 Night" and unlocking Survival Coins*500]

[Complete the side mission and get a prop reward: "Crazy Takeaway Guy Title"*1]

[Introduction to the "Crazy Takeaway Guy Title" props: Based on your special performance in tonight's night patrol, the system will customize special props for you]

[Instructions for use: A one-time prop, you can enter any building on the campus as a delivery boy without the permission of the school; Note: Using this prop will not arouse the suspicion of NPC, but it cannot control other

Traveler’s reaction, please use with caution]

"Thank you for the customized reward for me. It looks very useful." Qi Kui was very satisfied with this unique prop.

【You're welcome, you deserve it】

At this moment, Qi Jiu's phone rang.

He looked at the caller ID and expected that it was the dean who came to "check on the work."

Qi Jiu pressed the answer button and deliberately did not take the initiative to speak.

He is waiting for the other party's reaction.

"Hello? Please...is this Teacher Qi?" After half a second of silence, the other end of the phone asked cautiously.

"It's me. I've finished my night patrol and am now preparing to go back to the dormitory to rest and catch up on my sleep. Is there anything else you need me to do?" Qi Qiu yawned widely, his voice a little hoarse from exhaustion.

The dean was stunned for a moment: "Really you? Are you okay?!"

The dean's attitude confirmed Qi Jiu's guess. As a trainee teacher, he was indeed sent to watch the night to make sacrifices.

It seems that the dean did not expect that he would be able to complete the night watch mission alive.

Qi Jiu raised the corners of his lips, pretending not to understand anything: "I'm fine, I'm just a little sleepy after not sleeping all night. What's wrong?"

The other end of the phone was silent for another two seconds: "Oh, it's okay. After you return to the dormitory, remember to follow the rules and make a report of suspicious situations encountered during the night patrol and send it to me. Please send it as soon as possible. Don't

Wait until you wake up."

"Okay, I understand." Qi Qiu complained in his heart. This school really doesn't treat its faculty and staff as human beings. They even asked them to write reports after patrolling all night.

Moreover, this dean is also very "dedicated" and is still supervising the work of his subordinates at four o'clock in the morning.

In comparison, the "system teacher" who assigns tasks to travelers is much gentler, polite, and very understanding and considerate.

"By the way, the new students will arrive on time at 12 noon tomorrow. The faculty and staff to greet the new students will gather at 11:30 in the lobby of the faculty and staff dormitory. You go back and have a good rest. You must be in the best spirit tomorrow noon

Welcome the new students." The dean didn't know what he thought of, and he laughed sadly a few times on the other end of the phone.

Qi Jiu: "No problem, then I'll go back and write a report for you."

After returning to the dormitory, Qi Qiu took a refreshing shower before starting to write the so-called night patrol report.

He only wrote a perfunctory line in the report——

"Everything went well last night during the night patrol, nothing happened."

After thinking about it, he decided to add another sentence to make up the number of words——

"Last night's overtime meal tasted great. If possible, I hope the portions will be larger next time."

After writing two lines of words, Qi Jiu immediately clicked the send button.

He had no intention of telling the school's senior management about the note. After all, it was a secret shared by himself as a "delivery boy" and the poor evil spirit from 302.

After the email was successfully sent, Qi Jiu turned off the sound on his cell phone and fell asleep on the dormitory bed.

He couldn't wait to enter the dreamland to look for clues about the guy 079.

The dream this time was very different from the past, very white, bright white.

The low singing voice lingered in his ears, misty and melodious. Qi Jiu opened his eyes in his dream, and strong pure white flooded his field of vision. He subconsciously raised his hand to block the light.

Looking through the gaps between his fingers, everything Qi Gu could see was white that was so intense that it was blinding. When he gradually adapted to the brightness around him, and finally saw the building he was in clearly, he saw the solemnity, grandeur and tranquility in front of him.

The whiteness took his breath away.

This is a minimalist building with white as the main tone. The interior of the entire building is like a bright mirror, with a high curved ceiling and numerous slender white columns surrounding it, arranged densely and regularly like harp strings.

It gives people a delicate and rich sense of progression.

The entire space was open and bright, with white sunlight shining into the room from the windows on all sides. Qi Ku, who had just opened his eyes, had the illusion that he was melting into this untainted white.

Countless people were bathing in the sun and chanting in low voices. They were quiet and pious, wearing all white robes, and perfectly integrated with the building. Their existence was like a derivative of the surrounding columns, and like the tiny waves rising from the white sea.

Qi Ku walked through the chanting crowd. These people did not seem to notice his presence. Qi Ku walked freely.

Until he heard a familiar voice——

"Meow meow meow~"

A gray figure flashed from behind the dense columns and flew towards the southeast of the building.

Qi Zhu's eyes narrowed slightly and he quickly followed the little gray cat.

After bypassing the string-like pillars, Qi Qiu followed the little gray cat's guidance to a long and narrow staircase entrance.

He raised his eyes and saw that the pure white stairs spiraled upwards. The walls around the stairs were also painted white. The sunlight shined through the wall windows and illuminated each step. The minimalist tones gave people a strong visual impact, as if

Walking down the staircase corridor, you will never reach the white end.

Qi Ku climbed up the steps, his shoes unable to leave any traces on the white steps.

He found that there were also sculptures of gods placed on the windows on both sides of the stairs, but the sculptures here had complete heads, unlike the headless gods seen in the school shrine.

The only thing that Qi Ku found strange was that although the sculpture here had a head, it had no facial features.

Under strong light, the sculpture of a god without facial features feels somewhat strange, as if his face has melted into the bright white light.

What is the connection between the headless statues enshrined in the school and the statues here? What is the connection between these statues and "problem students"?

Just like the parade in the 404 hot spring instance, guy 079 brought himself here to provide clues.

If we can figure out the connection between the two idols and find the connection between the "problem school" and the idol, we will probably be able to figure out the main logic of the copy and find the correct way to complete the copy.

Qi Qiu silently wrote down these information points and doubts, and then continued to walk up the stairs with the footsteps of the little gray cat. After about five minutes, a similarly white door appeared at the end of the white stairs.

"Dong dong dong——"

The door was ajar, but Qi Qiu knocked on the door politely. There was no sound inside the door. Qi Qiu did not take the liberty of pushing the door open, but stood on the steps and waited patiently.

Waiting made time become long, but he didn't hate the long time at this moment.

He knew that he would be able to see that guy's role soon, which was exciting.

"Please come in."

Finally, an all-too-familiar voice came from behind the door, but this time, his voice sounded ascetic and colder than ever before.

When Qi Qiu followed the instructions and pushed the door open, the corners of his lips raised slightly unconsciously.

This time, the "prey" playing games with him seemed to play a more "superior" role.

Behind the door is a bright and colorful scene. The room is not large. On the west side is an entire stained glass window. A hollow wooden wall used for confession between believers and priests lies between the glass window and the door.

"Please take a seat."

The other party's voice came from behind the hollow wooden wall, and a small stool was placed in front of the confessional.

Qi Qiu sat down as he was told, and for a moment both of them were silent. Through the fragmented and mottled light and shadow of the hollow wooden wall, the two of them looked at each other in silence in tacit understanding.

It was so quiet that you could hear the sound of sunlight falling into the room, as well as the subtle noise of Qi Qiu's breathing and heartbeat.

Light is flowing, dust is flowing, and time floats in the flowing light and dust.

Only each other's gaze remained motionless.

The guy was wearing a pure white robe, which seemed to be the clothes of a clergyman.

He sat with his back to the window, and a whole wall of flowing light enveloped him, with mottled colors wantonly outlining his figure.

He sat calmly in the noisy colors. Through the light and shadow of the window panes, his gray-green eyes stared at Qi Kui for a long time. Although he was clearly close at hand, his gaze made people feel a little distant.

——Remote, empty, and quiet.

It was green shrouded in divinity. At this moment, Qi Jiu was facing such a pair of eyes, as if he was undergoing a gentle and long trial.

"Will you tell me your sins?" he finally said.

Qi Jiu pursed his lips, and then raised the corners of his lips imperceptibly: "Father, what sin do you think I have committed?"

"This is not my responsibility," the priest opposite said in a calm tone, but such calmness is extremely deceptive. "You must speak out your 'sin' yourself in order to obtain salvation."

Qi Jiu smiled: "Is it a sin to have a desire for someone's blood?"

Through the light-flowing window pane, those gray-green eyes stared at Qi Kui: "Do you feel guilty or afraid about this?"

"No, I'm just looking forward to it." Qi Jiu answered honestly.

"I understand," said the priest.

"What do you understand? Father." Qi Qiu's final voice rose slightly, accepting the other party's "trial" calmly, even a bit "provocative".

"You don't intend to get forgiveness from the other party, do you?" the priest continued to say calmly.

"If the other party also expects this, do they still need forgiveness?" Qi Jiu asked rhetorically.

The light falling from the stained glass gradually dimmed, giving the confessional of the Holy Spirit an ambiguous color.

"This question must be answered by the other party." The priest gave his own answer.

"Oh, you are right," Qi Jiu chuckled, "So, what do you think, Father? I want to taste your blood, do I need your forgiveness?"

Silence continued to spread. Such silence was not difficult to endure. At least Qi Ji enjoyed it, and so did the guy opposite.

Until the stained glass completely darkened, and each other's faces became blurred in the darkness.
Chapter completed!
