What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?

Qinxue Building·Fifth Floor.

Yang Buqi stood guard at the stairway, pressing one hand tightly on the luminous marker on the wall until he confirmed that the last person had rushed out from the stairwell, then he let go, turned around and walked quickly into the corridor.

Turning a corner, Yang Buqi's eyes lit up when he saw a group of people gathered in front of a room: "How? Did you find it?"

"Yeah!" The people in front of the room turned their heads when they heard the sound, Chen Dazhuang nodded vigorously: "Finally found it, this is the one. Old Gu has already gone in to check the situation—"

Yang Buqi stopped, looked into the room, and saw an unusually clean room behind the door, about the size of an ordinary teacher's office, with simple and decent furnishings. Inside the room was a large and heavy desk, and the health committee member was bending over and looking for something in the drawer of the desk.

"Found it!" It didn't take long for the health commissioner's surprised voice to come out, "All the employment letters are here! They are still in the state of being able to modify!"

When everyone outside the door heard the words, they all showed expressions of relief. The deputy monitor who was closest to the door was about to go in, and said as he walked, "Fix the dormitory manager first! After that, hurry up and meet Xu Turan, I don't know what's going on with her!"

The health commissioner responded, flipped through a stack of employment letters, and suddenly said "ah",

"The status of this dormitory manager's employment letter... is a bit strange." He took out a piece of paper from it. "The name registered on this paper has become garbled. And only it is in an unmodifiable state..."

"What?" The deputy squad leader frowned in confusion, and hurried over to check. Chen Dazhuang and the others originally wanted to enter, but when they heard something unusual, they immediately stopped and looked around defensively.

Yang Buqi also guarded the door, after all, he was an outsider, he consciously did not enter the office, out of concern, but still listened carefully to the movement inside.

The sound of heavy objects moving came from inside, and Yang Buqi frowned: "Gu Tiezhu?"

"Yeah." The sanitation committee member in the room responded, "It's okay, just move a cabinet."

Yang Buqi: "?"

"This principal's office is protected by rules. Although that rule is related to the first version of the school rules, it is generally difficult to change it, but just to be on the safe side, let's check it again..."

The principal's office is only accessible to those with abilities, so it is said to be absolutely safe. The problem is, Dahuaihua's native dog still has a capable person to help him, or he is more orderly. Now that there is another problem with the employment letter, it is hard not to let people care.

Yang Buqi couldn't help looking inside, and saw that the health committee member was busy moving the cabinet with the deputy class, revealing the rule paper behind it.

"What's wrong?" Yang Buqi asked immediately, noticing the unkind expressions on their faces.

"...This paper has been revised." The deputy squad leader frowned, "The content of the original version has not been changed, but some inexplicable things have been added behind it..."

baffling?

Yang Buqi's heart moved, he raised his foot and was about to go in, but was stopped by the health committee.

"It says that if the entrant wants to modify the employment letter, he can only modify it one by one, and there must be an interval of three minutes between each modification. Those who have already entered the office, before the same batch of modifications are all completed, do not You are allowed to leave the office, if you leave, the revisions you have made will be invalidated."

"If this batch of changes is confirmed to be completed, the letter of employment must be revised five days later."

"...When the letter of employment is amended, the parties need to enter the office and sign in. Otherwise, the amendment will be deemed invalid..."

The health commissioner scratched his hair: "No, what do these mean? Why is it so complicated?"

"...He wants to delay us." Yang Buqi pursed his lips, "That guy, he wants us to waste time here."

With the interval of five days, they must seize this opportunity and revise as many employment letters as possible at one time. However, it takes three minutes to wait for each modification. With so many employment letters, it takes a lot of time to add them all together.

Moreover, this rule also requires the parties to enter the room to sign in, and they are not allowed to leave until all the revisions are completed. At the same time, there are rigid regulations in the school regulations, and some positions are not allowed to be concurrently held. It is not realistic to rely on only one or two people to go in and change all the employment letters.

The letter of employment cannot be taken out of the principal's office, and none of them can modify the rules... Isn't it obvious that they want to drag them here?

"It takes six people to barely fill all the positions, or one person holds several positions..." The deputy class frowned and shook his head, Yang Buqi immediately raised his head: "Only six?"

"...Well, there were originally seven. But it's not that there is a letter of employment for the dormitory manager that can't be changed, so I have to leave it for now." The deputy class explained, noticing the pondering on Yang Buqi's face, "What are you thinking? ?”

"I don't think there is any need to further disperse the combat power under the current situation." Yang Buqi took a deep breath, "Go ahead and revise the employment letter, six people, just right. I'll go out and have a look."

"Are you alone?" Chen Dazhuang was surprised, "But there are a bunch of accompanying creatures downstairs."

The security guards who came in to block them were sealed downstairs not long ago by using their teacher's ability. Although they can't go up for the time being, if you go down, you will definitely be able to meet them.

"It's okay. You can't die anyway." Yang Buqi said absently, "Go in and make changes quickly. The more you delay, the more time it will take."

After finishing speaking, regardless of other people's reactions, he turned around and rushed towards the stairs again.

The mark on the staircase wall was still flashing, Yang Buqi stepped forward to trigger it, walked down, and came directly to the staircase on the third floor in an instant.

On the stairs going up and down, the figure of the security guard was swaying and wandering. The shadow was cast on the wall, and it was obvious that the position of the head should have been replaced by the tentacles of Zhang Yang.

Yang Buqi didn't dare to delay, his hands glowed with green light, and he rushed down sullenly, no matter what the **** he saw in the process, he just slapped him twice.

As long as I don't look closely, it won't drop san.

With such simple and unpretentious thoughts in mind, Yang Buqi rushed all the way to the first floor, until he left the lobby of Qinxue Building, and only belatedly realized that the security guards he saw just now seemed to be in a bad state.

Those security guards were all trapped on the third floor, unable to go up or down, and could only wander in the circulating space. Logically speaking, they shouldn't be in a hurry to leave, and they would be more eager to catch talents.

But the truth is, just now when Yang Buqi came all the way down, the security guards he met didn't show much aggressiveness towards him, and they were very irritable, some even tried to jump off a building or hit a wall...

It was as if he didn't want to talk to them at all, and was just anxious to leave that space.

…It's kind of weird when you think about it. They are stealing the house here?

Yang Buqi frowned puzzledly, but couldn't find any ideas for the time being, so he could only put the question aside first, and sneaked back to the Zhixue Building alone.

Enter the Zhixue Building, find the companion who is guarding the mark, and then transfer to the laboratory building through the mark—Yang Buqi originally thought that the next step would be to go directly to the dormitory of the Si Xue Building.

"...What's the situation?" He looked at the girls in the hallway on the first floor, and deeply suspected that he had gone to the wrong set.

Especially those girls are squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, their expressions are empty and their eyes are confused...

Yang Buqi was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the door he had passed through, and seriously thought about whether to open the door and try again.

"Team Yang!" Zhu Tang was looking at the guard mark, and when he saw Yang Buqi come out, he immediately greeted him vigorously. Yang Buqi nodded with a complicated expression, and then looked at the row of girls squatting in the corridor: "These...what's the situation? And why are you looking at the sign?"

"Sister Zhao went out to arrest people. I'll watch for her for a while." Zhu Tang said, "As for these people...hey, what are you doing!"

In the middle of her speech, she suddenly turned to a girl, opened her mouth and let out a low growl, her face was covered with dragon scales.

The girl who was yelled at by her got a small knife out of nowhere, and was about to cut her hand secretly. Seeing this, she let go of her hand in fright, and the utility knife fell to the ground.

Zhu Tang stepped forward, took the knife away, turned around and saw Yang Buqi's confused and surprised eyes, and hurriedly explained: "I really didn't mean to kill them on purpose, they are not normal now!"

Yang Buqi's heart moved, and his expression became serious: "Tell me in detail."

While talking, it happened that Lin Ge and Zhao Huaihua came from the other side, holding another girl in their hands. One of the hands has been cut, and Lin Ge is pressing the wound hard.

"These are all students from our class." Zhu Tang said helplessly, "Our last session was an information class. These people don't know what's going on, and they're still sitting in the computer room after class. Lin Ge and I thought something was wrong, so we went outside I observed secretly. It turned out that after a while, they suddenly stood up, one or two, looking for a container to let blood."

Yang Buqi: "Bleeding?"

"Drawing formations, summoning!" Zhu Tang stared wide-eyed, "Some of the paintings seem to be not summoning formations, but some kind of oppressive runes...but those are not something ordinary people can draw."

Even if they can draw, who dares to let them mess around in their obviously abnormal state.

"They don't seem to know what they are doing now." Lin Ge added in a low voice, "They know they are afraid, and they know to stop after being trained. But they don't seem to be afraid of pain at all. As long as one of them fails to keep an eye on it, it will start again."

"... Something is wrong." Yang Buqi rolled his eyes, "Are you still in the computer room on the right? I'll go and see."

Zhu Tang responded, and Yang Buqi turned and went upstairs, and entered the computer room. Just as the door of the computer room was open, he pushed the door open and entered, feeling an inexplicable chill.

Yang Buqi frowned, and found a computer nearby. The computer was not turned off, it was just in hibernation, Yang Buqi woke it up, and saw an open pop-up window on the screen.

He pulled the pop-up window to the top, and a few lines of big red characters hit his eyes:

[I already know your hidden identity. You are an oddity among us. If you don't want your secrets to be made public, read on. 】

...?

Yang Buqi's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and he swiped the mouse down a few times, his face became more serious the more he looked.

— This pop-up window is essentially a document, a letter of employment. The counterpart is an organization that calls itself the "Student Union". The producer of the document coerced the so-called "hidden identity" to induce readers to tick and sign at the bottom of the pop-up window, expressing their willingness to join the "student union", and accept the direct instructions and deployment of the "student union" from then on...

The weirdest thing is that according to Yang Buqi's judgment, the first few sentences are actually all "lies".

In other words, the person who wrote this threatening letter didn't know what "hidden identity" was at all, at least he didn't know the hidden identity of the reader, that's all he wrote.

For some reason, I suddenly felt a chill down my back. Yang Buqi quickly walked to other computers, and as expected, he found the same pop-up window on other computers.

Almost every computer has it. It's just that most of them were pulled to the bottom, and some only stayed at the beginning, and the blank space was not signed.

Yang Buqi counted down the number of unsigned ones, nine in total. Back on the first floor, the first thing I said when I saw Zhu Tang was "Are all the girls in your class here?"

"Ah? No." Zhu Tang counted the number, "Besides the four of us, there are five girls who are not here."

"You can confirm again. If they are not in the laboratory building, you can basically confirm that they are alive." Yang Buqi confirmed the number with his own observation results, and found that they corresponded exactly. Noticing the confused expressions of the people in front of him, he added, "Someone tampered with the computer in the computer room and made a threatening letter against 'Phantom'. Those who didn't get caught are most likely humans."

"Phantom students", that is, fake students generated by supernatural props, all come from the "Student Imitation Workshop". One of their basic settings is that they will regard themselves as the ghosts of students, and will spare no effort to hide their identities. This is the highest priority for them.

And the person who made the document took advantage of this. He directly threatened them with his identity, and gained the power to control them—it doesn't mean that they will be controlled after signing the agreement, but the low-level energy body made with props, after signing the agreement, is basically equivalent to handing over Out of a small amount of self-control.

Now this full corridor is an example.

"Can it still be like this?" Zhao Huaihua's expression became serious, "The location of the student's imitation workshop..."

"I'm not sure if it was exposed, but we need to find it quickly." Yang Buqi said, "These students are themselves supernatural products, and they are still being controlled, which is very troublesome. And we are not sure whether the students in other classes have been controlled."

Most importantly, they still retain their student status. Students cannot kill each other, which means that capable people can't do anything to them, at most they can control them like they are now.

When necessary, we still have to find a way to take it all in one pot.

Yang Buqi made up his mind, found another bottle of water, mixed a bottle of fake death medicine, and asked Zhu Tang to try to feed these phantoms—at least it would make them calm down for a while.

Follow the quick steps to leave the laboratory building and walk to the dormitory building.

The dormitory building and the Sixue building are connected by several air corridors. But Zhu Tang had greeted him in advance, so Yang Buqi didn't waste any time and went directly to the main entrance of the dormitory.

...and then, he's dumbfounded.

Who can tell him, what is that crowded black mass at the door of the dormitory?

Why are there security guards here? And the teacher...Yang Buqi stopped silently, thought for a few seconds, then decisively turned around, went around to the back of the building, found an open window, and began to try to look inside.

He had just climbed in when he suddenly felt his hind legs being grabbed by someone. Yang Buqi froze, turned his head slowly, and met a pair of red eyes.

"Student..." The pale ghost trembled, "Take me..."

Yang Buqi: "..."

Even Yang Buqi's heart skipped a beat in the face of this situation. He closed his eyes, kicked his legs decisively, and slapped back with a green light from his palm. At the same time, he jumped into the window regardless. After landing, he was afraid that the latter would follow in, so he turned around and planned to make another stab.

...But seeing that the pale ghost image was blocked by something, he didn't follow in again, and could only stand at the window, knocking on the air in vain.

Yang Buqi: "..."

Looking at the ghost outside, he slumped his shoulders with relief, and the next second, he became stiff again due to the cold breath sweeping from his back.

He turned his head vigilantly, and saw the bedroom door behind him open inward by itself. A distorted figure stood quietly in the door frame.

That guy was nearly two meters tall, half of his body, including his head, was split open, and a large number of wriggling tentacles grew out of it.

Frankly speaking, Yang Buqi is very used to this look. The thing is, the intensity of this guy...

Just this breath, this oppressive feeling. Conservative estimate, two security guards.

Yang Buqi rolled his throat and lowered his body defensively.

The monster tilted its head and let out a threatening growl. Yang Buqi's heart trembled, a green light glowed in his palm, and his heart felt cold.

Monsters of this strength have already invaded the dormitory... What about Xu Tuoran? What about her? how is it now?

Yang Buqi took a deep breath and forced himself to turn his attention to the monster in front of him. In the next second, the sound of "da da" footsteps came from the corridor outside.

In the next second, the monster in front of him visibly trembled, and the whole monster suddenly disappeared at the door.

Yang Buqi: ...?

? ? ? !

Yang Buqi, who had just put on a fighting stance, was dumbfounded again. He instinctively sensed that the guy hadn't actually gone far, and after struggling for a moment, he cautiously stepped out of the current room.

Just when I poked my head out, I saw a familiar figure approaching from a distance.

"Yang Buqi!" Seeing him, Xu Tuoran obviously became more interested, and walked over quickly, "Is it over with you? Why are you alone? Where are the others?"

"...Du, still in the Qinxue building." Yang Buqi said, he caught a dark shadow out of the corner of his eye, and involuntarily raised his head to glance up.

I saw the monster just now—the accompanying creature whose combat strength is equivalent to two security guards, now sticking to the ceiling of the corridor.

The tentacles are just grabbing the wall, looking very difficult.

"Qinxue Building? Is there something wrong there?" Xu Tuoran didn't seem to notice the abnormality above her head at all - but Yang Buqi felt that she was more like aware of it, but didn't care.

Yang Buqi simply relayed the situation to her, watching the above while relaying.

I saw the accompanying creature lying on the corridor wall, climbing up in a strange and fast posture, and soon climbed to the edge of the stairs, jumped up the stairs quietly, and ran away.

...wait, ran away?

Yang Buqi couldn't help poking his probe forward, he couldn't believe his eyes for a while.

On the other side, Xu Tuoran was still digesting the content he relayed, glanced at the door, and said casually: "Hey, how did you come in? The door is closed."

"Oh, the window in the back room is not closed. I came in through the window." Yang Buqi was still thinking about the strange phenomenon of the companion creature sneaking away, and subconsciously replied. Xu Tuoran's eyes widened slightly: "Window? How could there be a window open... Oh, I see."

She shook her head, turned around and walked into the room to lock the window, turned her head to meet Yang Buqi's gaze, and explained actively: "It should be opened by the monster in the dormitory. It is probably trying to escape."

Yang Buqi: "...?"

He blinked, and struggled to digest what he had just heard: "You just said...fleeing?"

"Yeah." Xu Tuoran nodded calmly, "This building is under my management now. Those outside can't get in, and those inside can't get out. Oh, you are an exception, I have granted you additional access permissions."

As Xu Tuoran said, he pulled down the curtains. The thick curtain floated down, blocking the pale ghost outside who was still trying to knock on the window.

Yang Buqi: "..."

In his mind, he quickly integrated all the scenes he saw when he entered the dormitory, trying to find a reasonable explanation for everything.

It's a pity that it failed for the time being.

On the other side, Xu Tuoran had already pulled him out of the room and walked towards the stairs.

"You just said that there is also a situation in the laboratory building?" she asked.

"...Well, the phantom students in class two are all under control..." Yang Buqi said absently, watching another strange shadow, fleeing crazily as Xu Tuoran approached.

"Control? Can a person with the ability to order do something similar?" Xu Tuoran looked thoughtful and stepped up the stairs. After a pause for a few seconds, he turned his head and looked at the empty corridor.

"The non-human students who are currently staying on the first floor, come out and clean the entire floor."

Xu Tuoran said lightly, then turned and went upstairs. Yang Buqi followed behind her, turned his head in a daze, and saw a few figures coming out of several dormitory doors and slowly walking into the corridor.

Yang Buqi:?

"What's the situation with you now?" He couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"My side? To put it simply, I became the dormitory supervisor and changed another rule." Xu Tuoran said, "Anyone who is on the same floor as me must follow my instructions."

While talking, the two walked to the second floor. Yang Buqi found that the accompanying creature he had seen before appeared here again, leaning against the wall without a reputation.

Xu Tuoran dragged him upstairs, and said casually: "The non-human students currently staying on the second floor, please pay attention to your appearance. All tentacles should not be higher than the head, and the number should not exceed five."

Yang Buqi: …

He turned his head and looked back, only to see that the companion creature whose body was half covered with tentacles had already started banging its head against the wall.

"No, how did they come in? You let them in?" Yang Buqi asked in disbelief.

"Ah." Xu Tuoran nodded, "I originally wanted a ransom, but they don't have any good things here except those compressed biscuits... I can't help it. If there is no ransom, they will add hostages. So I went Put some in one after another..."

"...So, hostage, what's going on?" Yang Buqi was silent for a moment, adjusted his breathing, and asked.

It's normal, it's all normal. He does mental construction for himself. The person in front of you, it is normal for her to do anything, you have to calm down and take it calmly...

"It's just the monsters in the building." Xu Tuoran was still giving him a serious science introduction, "I only tied one, and they all came to save you. I'm sure the more the better..."

...help me.

She just said help me.

For a companion creature, saving what kind of existence is considered "rescue".

Yang Buqi raised his hand to cover his face. He found that he suddenly didn't really want to know the answer to this question.

But it was too late—Xu Tuoran took him up to the third floor. In the depths of the corridor on the third floor, a huge, mantis-like monster was standing there. Its body was jelly-like, and it seemed to be trembling slightly.

Beside him, surrounded by a lot of gray female ghosts—this type is familiar to Yang Buqi, and they are exactly the ones that Xu Tuoran created with the hellish Polaroids.

In addition to the gray ghost, there is also a teddy bear with a knife. The two of them seemed to be a group, they kept bumping into the mantis, and then were swept away by the mantis with an understatement.

I don't know if it is Yang Buqi's illusion. He always felt that the actions of the praying mantis were helpless, even a little aggrieved.

"Here, let me introduce the original flower of the big Sophora japonica." Xu Tuoran raised his chin at "Praying Mantis", "I trapped it on this floor, and by the way banned its words... now it is a student, Teddy Xiong is also a student, and what you see now is a friendly exchange between two students."

...where's the friendliness? It's friendly if you don't kill them, right?

Yang Buqi opened his mouth, struggled for a few seconds, and then closed it silently.

Good guy.

He now understands why the security guards in the Qinxue building didn't want to trouble him, but instead ran out with all their might.

What is stealing? All the bosses in the house have been stolen, can you not be in a hurry!
