After the Little Crybaby Enters the Nightmare Cycle - Chapter 75
Guo Xian died last night.
He died very peacefully, like Ni Rong in the 202 dormitory on the 25th, with a calm face, lying on the pillow upright, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep and had not awakened.
Guo Xian’s hands were flat on his chest like a prayer, and his stiff fingers pulled the paper bag of regret medicine, as if clutching the last straw.
It’s a pity that this straw didn’t make him survive.
“What’s the matter? Didn’t Guo Xian take medicine and change his age? According to the school rules and taboo tips last night, he shouldn’t die?” While Guo Yaoyao was puzzled, she also felt relieved that her roommate Tong Yu was spared. Sighed.
“Is it possible that this rule is… the appearance looks the oldest?” Shu Yanfan questioned
Tong Yu: “It’s possible that women’s clothing used to evade taboos and get confused visually…”
Tang Yu looked at the serene middle-aged uncle on the bed in the dormitory, and frowned, “But Guo Xian’s method of death should be the same as Ni Rong’s. It was a “Christmas Eve” sacrifice, and it did not trigger the school rules last night. ”
It is inferred from the death status of dream visitors who violated the school rules several times before, if it was because of the “oldest” death, Guo Xian’s corpse might become a rickety old man overnight, or die from various senile diseases. , Rather than leaving so peacefully.
Tang Yu continued: “Moreover, the school system interface does not indicate our gender, only age is written, and I am a special example…I am also classified as a girl…So I feel that gender can be judged visually. The age must be determined by the system. It is unlikely that Guo Xian violated school rules because he looked very old.”
“Chi Nan, what do you think?” After a few days of getting along, Tang Yu already trusted Chi Nan’s character and ability very much.
Chi Nan: “As you think, Guo Xian died in a random sacrifice last night.”
Tong Yu looked dumbfounded: “But why? Even if he changes his age without authorization, I am the oldest in my turn. It shouldn’t be Christmas Eve, right?”
Chi Nan reconfirmed his system information: “Probably because the system broke down when identifying my age, this school rule couldn’t be advanced from the beginning.”
All inferences are just guesses, and morning classes have become the best opportunity to verify their inferences.
“The student Guo Xian of 205 last night ended his 6-day study life in the boarding school in the most decent and peaceful way. For his departure, I offer the most sincere blessings on behalf of all the students in the school…”
The female teacher stood on the podium, announcing Guo Xian’s death in a pious and sad tone. This rhetoric was almost exactly the same as that of Ni Rong at the time.
“But death is never the end. Their souls will stay in this boarding school forever, sending good luck and shelter to the classmates living here. I hope you don’t indulge in the sadness of parting and gain usefulness from their departure. This information is very valuable for your future study and life.”
The female teacher distributed the test papers to everyone as usual. “The situation was slightly different last night. Today’s test consists of three questions, two mandatory questions and one additional question. Please answer carefully according to your own understanding and judgment.”
The questions on the test paper are-
[Excuse me, what are the new school regulations added yesterday? ]
[Excuse me, what is the cause of Guo Xian’s death? ]
[Additional question: What is the relationship between Guo Xian’s death and the new school regulations? ]
Chi Nan did not hesitate to write on the answer sheet “The oldest student will be cleared by school rules” “Guo Xian died on Christmas Eve sacrifice” “Because the system could not read the ages of all students, the school rules could not be advanced and the night became Christmas Eve. Guo Xian was randomly selected as the subject of death.”
In less than half an hour, the female teacher finished marking the papers: “Today, everyone’s performance is also very satisfactory to the teacher. Among them, five students answered all correctly. These five students will get credits for three questions. Congratulations.”
Although Chi Nan had already stated his inference before the morning class, nearly half of the dream visitors doubted his absurd theory. After all, no one could see the interface of the other’s boarding school system. Chi Nan said that the system could not be read. Taking his exact age sounds very unreliable.
They believe in “seeing is believing.”
“Yesterday, some students in the performance class have already passed the wonderful interpretation and got clues about the school regulations on the 27th, but it is very regrettable, because the age of one of our students cannot be read, which hinders the advancement of the age school regulations. The classmates also complied with other school rules perfectly, so on the night of the 27th, it was regarded as Christmas Eve.”
“The rules of Christmas Eve were made very clear yesterday. The school will randomly select a classmate for death sacrifice. Student Guo Xian of 205 last night is honored to be the second person to be sacrificed. I am proud of him. ”
As soon as the female teacher’s voice fell, the whole 103 classroom fell into weird silence.
Everyone looked at Guo Xian’s previous fixed seats with complex expressions, and they were sighing in their hearts… In fact, the results of Guo Xian’s regrets that he changed his medicine yesterday were the same. If he didn’t change it, he would at least be able to maintain his youthful appearance when he died. Don’t want to become a greasy and blessed uncle at the last moment of life…
“Guo Xian himself certainly didn’t expect that, he had a thousand fortunes, and finally died on the rules of random sacrifice,” Shu Yanfan’s tone no longer saw yesterday’s ridicule, replaced by a faint emotion, “Probably it was 208. The two male souls have sought revenge from him. Didn’t the female teacher just say that their souls will always stay in the boarding school to watch us?”
The truth is indeed the truth, but Shu Yanfan’s remarks made the people who were originally anxious to horrify.
Chi Nan thought for a while. In this way, yesterday 229’s move to give Guo Xian the regret medicine can also be explained, because it was useless at first, and 229 is just appreciating the ridiculous posture of the dying person’s final self-righteousness.
Tong Yu looked at Chi Nan: “Why can’t your age system be read? Can you tell us if it is convenient?”
Chi Nan was stunned for half a second: “The system is malfunctioning.”
“Then what is your true age…?” Tong Yu asked tentatively.
Chi Nan: “Nineteen, it will be twenty after tonight.” He said on behalf of this body.
Tang Yu glanced at Chi Nan lightly and said nothing. He felt that the other party must have hidden some information, but he intuitively felt that this was not something he should know.
He respects everyone’s secrets.
“Classmates, please be quiet,” the female teacher knocked on the blackboard behind her, and the classroom quickly became quiet. “I will give you a preview first, because today is a special day. The school will organize a grand banquet in the evening. The afternoon class is closely related to the process, rules, and difficulty of the evening banquet. Please be sure to attend the class seriously.”
Seeing the condescending and serious face of the female teacher, everyone in the classroom also became nervous.
It will be the 29th after 0:00 tonight. According to Chi Nan’s previous speculation, the 29th is the most critical time for breaking the dream.
“Excuse me, what is the class schedule for the afternoon?” Chi Nan raised his hand and asked.
The female teacher looked over stiffly: “Divination lesson.”
During the lunch break, Chi Nan went to the school doctor’s room as usual, and the doctor had prepared fresh desserts and was waiting for him.
“Do you have a good relationship with Guo Xian?” The doctor asked with a smile on his hands on the table.
Chi Nan raised his eyes and looked at him: “Can’t you see our every move?”
The doctor squinted his eyes slightly: “Although this is the case, I hope to get the answer from you.”
Chi Nan said truthfully: “I’m not familiar with it.”
The doctor finally smiled and said, “That’s a pity.”
After a pause, he asked again, “Do you know why I promised to give Guo Xian regret medicine yesterday?”
Chi Nan looked back at the doctor’s eyes: “You know it’s useless if you give it, you want to use him for fun?”
The doctor curled his lips: “No, I don’t care about everyone. His existence alone can’t interest me.”
Chi Nan: “Oh, then why?”
Doctor: “Guess what?”
Chi Nan said seriously: “Your regret medicine preparation expired?”
Doctor: “…” He almost laughed.
“Because you introduced it, I have no reason not to welcome it.” The doctor looked at Chi Nan half-truth and said.
Chi Nan: “…Oh, thank you.”
Then Chi Nan said: “I dreamed of you last night.”
The doctor’s voice lazily wrote on his face: “Really? What did you dream of me?”
Chi Nan looked into his eyes: “Dreaming about you becoming Youyu again, just like in an acting class.”
The doctor’s expression solidified for a moment, then smiled and raised his face for a moment: “So what?”
Chi Nan shook his head, and suddenly said for a while: “It feels like it suits you.”
The doctor’s face finally changed a little, Chi Nan caught his change in expression and calmly finished eating the pudding in his hand.
He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: “Thank you for the hospitality, I’m going to take a nap first.”
Chi Nan had already thought about his birthday wish.
The afternoon divination class was held at 103. The female teacher moved the desks and chairs to both sides of the classroom like a physiology class. A black silk carpet was laid in the middle of the classroom, and a tarot card was placed in the center of the carpet.
The windows around the classroom are all covered by thick blackout curtains. Candles are lit in the corners of the classroom, and the light is dim.
“I believe all the students have guessed that today’s form of divination is Tarot.”
The female teacher also changed her makeup, her nails and lips were painted as scary as she had just drunk blood. “I have already reminded this morning that the result of the divination in the afternoon is related to the form, difficulty and process of the prom tonight. Please be sure to follow your inner guidance and complete the divination learning in class.”
Shu Yanfan whispered: “Oops, I only know the constellations…I don’t know anything about tarot divination…”
Tang Yu: “I know more about metaphysics and mathematics. About tarot, I only know the basic card meaning, and I don’t know anything about divination techniques.”
Their voices were very small, but they were still heard by the female teacher. She swept over her eyes stiffly: “Students don’t need to worry. Twelve large arcanas.”
After a pause, she suddenly split her red lips, “Your luck is more important than divination skills and common sense.”
Hearing the word luck, the dreamers in the classroom were a little uneasy. The air suddenly became thinner, as if the candles around the classroom had exhausted the oxygen, and everyone had difficulty breathing.
The female teacher drew out the twenty-two tarot cards and placed them upright on the black silk carpet. Her blood-red nails ran across the carpet, giving people the illusion that they could leave deep blood marks.
“We still have ten classmates left. In order to ensure the fairness and fairness of this divination, ten classmates are invited to form a circle with these 22 tarots as the center for the card opening ceremony. Students must ensure that they touch every card, otherwise it may affect your divination results.”
“Then, let’s get started.”
The female teacher stepped aside and gave up the position of the card to ten dream visitors.
According to the request of the female teacher, the crowd knelt on the carpet and shuffled the cards in a circle. For fear of any mistakes, they fumbled more than ten times to complete the card opening ceremony.
Seeing that they were ready, the female teacher came over to gather the twenty-two tarots scattered on the ground, and began to shuffle and cut the cards according to the process. No one dared to make a sound during the whole process, and the entire classroom was shrouded in tense silence.
The female teacher spread out 22 cards from left to right in a fan shape: “Next, I will choose three classmates to draw cards.”
She raised her head, still keeping her eyes closed and facing everyone, “Chi Nan, Tang Yu, and Tong Yu, you three will be the card drawers today.”
Tang Yu and Tong Yu were both stunned, only Chi Nan walked to the tarot cards without changing their colors.
The female teacher then opened her eyes and looked at him firmly: “Please keep your heart at peace during the process of drawing cards, and don’t have distracting thoughts.”
Chi Nan nodded, and instinctively drew a card out and pressed it on the carpet.
The female teacher reminded him: “Because Tarot has positive and negative positions, please open your cards by turning the book.”
Chi Nan Yiyan turned the card over, and everyone gathered around silently to witness their first card. When the face of the card was clearly seen, their faces were a little confused…
This is an upright “lovers” card.
