Chapter 13 Puzzle Queue
Hearing the bespectacled man's extremely sincere tone, Chen Lan didn't suspect much.
After all, it's a dungeon modeled after the beautiful card, so it's reasonable for the college student NPCs to play with some toys, right?
After helping to assemble the food, Chen Lan drove away to continue delivering orders.
The bespectacled man also dialed Liu Ruyan's number during his break.
"Hello, John? This is Tom."
John is Liu Ruyan's current identity name.
"That's how it is..."
The bespectacled man made up a reason hoping that Liu Ruyan wouldn't attend the end-of-term party tomorrow.
He didn't want one of the few guys in the class who cared about him to accidentally get infected.
"...What? You have an urgent matter tomorrow? Your godfather is currently hospitalized and needs someone to stay with him?"
After a moment's hesitation on the other end of the phone, he finally agreed.
hang up the phone.
The bespectacled man raised his head at a 45-degree angle, gazing at the newly risen pale red crescent moon, and clenched his teeth.
"They all look down on me! They all bully me, don't they!"
"What's wrong with wearing glasses! What's wrong with being a good student!"
"Why am I the only one being bullied?!"
"What did I do wrong! No, I did nothing wrong, the whole world is wrong."
boom!Boom!
The noise startled the flock of birds into flight, and the air was thick with the smell of gunpowder.
The next day, at the school auditorium.
After each exam, as the semester draws to a close and holidays are approaching, the college organizes campus parties for each class.
The fact that people can eat and drink at gatherings provides an opportunity for different teams and factions to absorb and accept new members.
The local tycoon, Miss Mary, extended an olive branch to Yang Lan.
"Congratulations, beautiful Lucy."
"congratulations."
……
Amidst the congratulations from her classmates, Yang Lan smiled radiantly, gradually losing herself in the moment.
Thank you everyone.
Just as the students were sending their blessings and raising their glasses in celebration to Yang Lan, and the festive atmosphere reached its peak.
Squeak, squeak, squeak.
The jarring sound of the door opening.
The hall doors were opened from the outside.
A thin-looking young man wearing glasses carried a small bag on his back and held a long-barreled spray gun in his right hand.
Click, click.
The sound of a gun being loaded.
The bespectacled man smiled and held up the truth.
Bang!Bang bang!
Everyone in the hall started screaming like they'd gone mad.
Smoke, screams, sprints, and stampedes mingled together.
The venue was instantly filled with the smell of heavy metal.
Yang Lan was standing close to the gate, making her one of the main targets of the bespectacled man's attack.
"No! You classmate, please don't! I didn't look down on you."
"They're the ones who bullied you; I was just forced into it."
"I apologize, okay? I apologize."
"You don't even know my name, and you still look down on me?"
The man with glasses had bloodshot eyes, and his overflowing anger nearly shattered his glasses.
Wield the truth in your hands with all your might.
Bang bang bang bang!
The truth is roaring.
In just three seconds, Yang Lan turned into a sieve, to the point that anyone with trypophobia would shake their head at the sight.
Yang Lan could neither believe it nor accept it.
How could my student status, which I had maintained so firmly in my second playthrough, end up like this?
It's just that he and the others bullied him a little.
As for?
I've already apologized to you, why did you still shoot at me? You're being unreasonable!
Their manners are terrible.
As she lay on the ground, her body stained red, she saw the other person walking towards her before her eyes closed completely.
His words carried a hint of madness.
"Now, it's your turn."
The last scene before his death in the second playthrough is the other person's big foot.
Yang Lan, died.
In stark contrast to Yang Lan was Liu Ruyan, who arrived at the hospital early in the morning.
She searched around and asked several nurses on each floor to confirm that Uncle Tom was not hospitalized in this hospital.
After failing to get through by phone, she had no choice but to take a ride back to school to ask other people.
It just so happened that it didn't coincide with the time of the bespectacled man's party.
When she returned to the school, she found that the area around the college was surrounded by many people wearing full protective gear.
After making inquiries, it was learned that a shooting had just occurred in the college auditorium. Local security and officers from Foborough are currently controlling the situation, and the number of casualties is unknown.
Shooting incident? College auditorium.
Liu Ruyan suddenly recalled the abrupt phone call from yesterday, and her expression immediately turned ugly.
Take a deep breath and calm yourself down a bit.
Liu Ruyan ran around again and, through questioning and combining information from several parties involved, almost confirmed that the instigator of this incident was her classmate, the bespectacled man named Tom.
At that moment, a voice suddenly rang in my mind.
It's Free Spirit, the guy who gave Liu Ruyan a hidden quest not long ago.
"Congratulations, you have perfectly avoided this pinball party and completed the hidden mission."
"The seal is now being unlocked for you, restoring your knowledge. The reward money will be deposited into your account through legal channels in 2 hours."
"Additionally, you have completed the hidden quest in the dungeon. You are now given the following options:"
[Choose option 1: Continue living under your current identity until settlement time. Hidden quests will not be triggered again.]
[Option Two: Inherit your current assets, live with a new identity, and complete dungeon runs to unlock a new hidden quest.]
"By the way, the second hidden mission rewards $20. Contestant, you have one night to consider it."
The free spirit waved and left.
Back in the instance space, upon seeing the wandering executioner, the free spirit raised the questions that had been lingering in his mind.
"Master, please forgive my ignorance, I did not understand the true meaning behind your words."
"Liu Ruyan has already completed the first hidden quest and retained her student status. If she doesn't make any mistakes, she can reliably clear the dungeon. Why does the master still need to tell her about the second hidden quest and the rewards?"
At the end of the instance, the administrator and designers will use the collected negative energy to exchange for rewards and distribute them to them.
The more promises you make now, the less you'll receive later. Wouldn't that be a loss?
Would its clever and wise master do something that would result in such a loss? There must be a deeper meaning behind this that the Free Spirit is unaware of!
"You don't understand?" You Xing retorted.
Sure enough, there really was something behind it all.
The Free Ghost's eyes lit up, and it replied, "I am just a lowly ghost with limited intelligence."
You Xing suddenly realized, and after a moment of thought, he raised his hand, extracted a portion from the negative energy panel, and then injected it into the Free Ghost's body.
It's sizzling!
As the aura within the Free Ghost rose, he officially advanced from the lowest-ranking imp to an ordinary imp.
"Thank you, Master!"
My mind suddenly became much more agile, and I suddenly understood everything that I couldn't figure out before, including things I had learned but didn't understand.
"Now, do you understand why we gave her the second hidden quest?"
"Hmm! Master probably wants to generate more negative energy in her."
After some intellectual stimulation, Free Ghost immediately pinpointed the key point.
"Yes, human greed is in our nature. Maintaining her student status and not causing trouble will certainly allow her to pass the test. But what if we throw in 20, or even more, giving her the hope of competing for the extra reward for first place?"
"Especially since she completed the first round of hidden missions so easily, without even giving us more than 100 points of negative energy."
"When her identity changes, the difficulties will double, and she will have to give back everything she got before."
You Xing said it casually.
"As expected of the master!"
After one night, Liu Ruyan could not resist the temptation of the reward and chose to inherit the funds and change her identity.
