During lunch break, the group hurried out of the cafeteria.
The campus broadcasting room and teachers' offices are all in the administrative building, the latter is on the first floor and the former is on the top floor.
Xia Jing didn't mean to ask anyone to go to the broadcasting room with him, but it was very dangerous to act alone in the copy.
Song Yang originally wanted Liu Yi and Xia Jing to go together, but before he could say anything, a hand was placed on Xia Jing's shoulder.
Jin Nan said slowly: "Hey, I'll go with you to the broadcasting room."
Several people stopped and stared at him with strange eyes. This guy really didn't seem like such a kind-hearted person.
Jin Nan could naturally feel those gazes, and his face darkened as he said viciously, "Can't I get more points?"
The players who survive the same dungeon will receive different points. The system will evaluate and assign points based on the players' performance throughout the entire process.
So, it's not impossible to win without doing anything, but the rule of Smiley City is that only players who have accumulated 10,000 points will have the opportunity to completely leave this horrible world. If you can only get 10 points by winning without doing anything in each copy, how long will it take to get rid of this nightmare place?
Jin Nan's reasons are impeccable.
Of course, monsters are scary, and no one wants to die, but you can't be completely passive, otherwise this dungeon would be a waste of time.
Song Yang glanced at Xia Jing to see what he meant.
The young man just smiled meaningfully and said lightly, "Okay."
…
After separating from Wang Yueran and the others and stepping into the cool administrative building, Song Yang thought for a moment and whispered to Xia Jing, "Call me if there's anything."
The eight people had just exchanged their cell phone contact information in this world.
Hearing Song Yang's words, Xia Jing looked at Song Yang straight and said, "You are really a good person."
Song Yang: "?"
Having lived for twenty-three years, Song Yang never thought of himself as a bad person, but this was indeed the first time that someone praised him as a "good person". This feeling was quite... weird?
If it were someone else, Song Yang would definitely think that he was being ridiculed.
But there was indeed no hint of sarcasm in the young man's words.
Song Yang raised his eyebrows and asked, "So?"
"Nothing," Xia Jing raised his lips, turned and went up the stairs, "I like nice people."
Song Yang: "..."
No, this doesn't make people happy at all, but makes people feel even more subtle!
*
The administrative building is very large.
Glass windows were embedded in the surrounding walls, very far away, so the bright sunlight outside could not fill the entire space.
Therefore, the temperature in the entire administrative building was very low, and even wearing long-sleeved school uniforms, people still got goose bumps all over their bodies.
Other than that, it was quiet, the kind of quiet where there was no movement at all.
There was no one in the lobby of each floor and the two long corridors on the left and right. Light and shadows intertwined on the shiny marble floor without the slightest disturbance.
Jin Nan glanced around nervously, dagger in hand, muscles tense, always feeling that something was secretly staring at them in the dark corner.
The young man walking in front of him walked leisurely, as if he had no fear at all.
Xia Jing was in front and Jin Nan was behind. This was a relative position that was formed unconsciously and neither of them had any objection.
Amidst his nervousness, Jin Nan paid some attention to observing Xia Jing's back.
The sinister gaze swept across the back of Xia Jing's neck and moved to Xia Jing's wrist, which was faintly visible under the long-sleeved school uniform.
"Hey... have you been to a safe house before?" he asked casually.
The young man in front tilted his head, as if giving an affirmative answer.
Jin Nan chuckled as if chatting casually, saying, "I heard there are a lot of small props in the safe house. As long as you have a monster body part that meets the standards of the safe house manager, you can exchange it. What about you? You only bought a human skin mask and nothing else?"
The young man seemed to smile as well, and said in a gentle voice, "It would be difficult for an ordinary person to obtain so many monster parts, right?"
Jin Nan immediately sneered: "That's right."
Although Song Yang seemed to think highly of the fat man, Jin Nan felt that the fat man was just a guy who was good at bluffing.
It was luck that he could enter the safe house. With the fat man's strength, buying a human skin mask would be the most he could do. I don't know what kind of face it is. It's so precious that he can't even let people look at it.
Thinking of this, Jin Nan was still carefully paying attention to the parts of Xia Jing's body exposed outside the school uniform, checking for other small marks that were difficult to find.
——In addition to the symbol representing the safe house selling small props, there is also... the symbol for points.
Smiley City publishes the latest player points rankings every week, but it is published anonymously.
Everyone can only see how many points the top 100 players have accumulated, but they don't know who those points correspond to.
Everyone just had a rough guess in their hearts about the identities of those people in the front row.
If you want to know each person's specific points, there is only one way - find the points mark on his body.
Smiley City will engrave each player's points on the player's own body, often appearing on the part of the body that is most important to the player.
But everyone knows that no matter how high or low the points are, when facing different players, everyone may be treated as an innocent target for head points, so most players will try to hide their points.
Of course, even if Song Yang, who is so high-profile, conceals his points, people who know him still know that his points will not be too low.
However, there is a huge gap in strength between people like Song Yang and ordinary players.
Whether it is intelligence, physical fitness, courage, or other aspects.
Precisely because everyone knew that Song Yang's strength was too extraordinary, no one dared to target him - that was why that guy was too lazy to even use a human skin mask.
Because you are strong, you are fearless.
But it's different for others.
Jin Nan licked his lips and judged Xia Jing's points in his heart.
Suddenly, the shrill sound of debugging microphones rang out throughout the entire administrative building, no, throughout the entire campus!
The two of them stopped.
At the same time, Jia Qing, Liu Yi and Song Yang, who had already stepped into the teacher's office and felt their scalps tingling in the face of groups of teacher NPCs, and Wang Yueran, Xu Jin and the old lady who were carefully searching for clues on campus, all stopped and looked up.
——The campus loudspeaker sounded again!
"Hello? Hello?" A rough male voice tried briefly.
Just when everyone thought he was about to shout out the slogan "Don't think about it" again and brainwash them, and they couldn't help but be on guard, a gruff male voice said, "It's time for campus song requests! I'm sure everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time. What songs do you want to hear today?"
Everyone was stunned.
Campus song request?
A gruff male voice muttered to himself, "Ahhh, but today is still a day with no song requests. What should I do?"
After a pause, he laughed out loud: "Hahahahaha, then of course I have to choose the song myself!"
"What? Are you crazy?" Jin Nan cursed inexplicably.
The next second, deafening rock music burst out from the speakers, shaking everyone's brain like a heavy punch!
The rapid drum beats matched with the crazy bass, and the rough male voice singing along out of tune in between, are simply devilish sounds!
For a moment, Jin Nan couldn't help but cover his ears. He felt like his brain was attacked and his face turned green.
Is this something a human can listen to?
Xia Jing looked at the loudspeaker in the corner of the stairs, thoughtfully, and continued to walk up.
The top floor is on the sixth floor, and they are on the fifth floor now, very close to the broadcasting room.
Amid the restless drum beats and deafening music, Jin Nan was so nervous that she almost wanted to vomit.
There is definitely something wrong with the campus broadcasting room. Regardless of whether there is a problem in the teachers' office on the first floor, something will definitely happen here!
He glanced at Xia Jing's calm back, gritted his teeth, and followed.
Because of the loud music, it was difficult for them to pay attention to the movements around them - at least they could not hear footsteps or anything like that. At this moment, they might not even be able to hear what each other was saying clearly.
Stepping onto the sixth floor, what appeared before them was a dark corridor.
Xia Jing paused for a moment and then walked forward. After a few steps, they could see the big words "Campus Broadcasting Room" on the door of the middle office.
Jin Nan's palms were sweating and his heart was pounding with fear. The frequency of his heartbeat seemed to be in sync with the rapid drumbeats, and it was about to resonate and explode in the next second!
He shouted with rapid breathing: "Hey!"
I don't know if it was because the music was too loud, but Xia Jing in front of me didn't stop at all, as if he didn't hear it at all.
Jin Nan tried calling out again, but Xia Jing still didn't respond.
Jin Nan cursed inwardly and saw that Xia Jing had stopped in front of the broadcasting room door. He thought, forget it.
You brought this upon yourself, so don't blame me.
His eyes darkened.
Xia Jing stopped in front of the broadcasting room door and glanced at Jin Nan sideways.
Jin Nan pretended to nod at him, indicating that he was ready to rush forward with him.
Xia Jing turned around and raised his hand.
Pause for one second.
Gently knock on the door of the campus broadcasting room.
Two gentle "knock knock" sounds were instantly drowned out by the manic rock music.
Jin Nan clenched his teeth, watching Xia Jing's bent fingers trying to hit the door again -
The rock music suddenly stopped.
A strange silence once again descended upon the entire campus, upon the entire corridor on the sixth floor of the administrative building, and upon this small corner in front of the broadcasting room.
Silently.
All that was left was one steady, one disordered, and shallow breath.
With a "click", the door of the campus broadcasting room opened a crack.
Jin Nan jumped and couldn't help but take a step back. When Xia Jing turned his head, he forced a smile and moved forward, indicating that he would always stand on the same side with him.
He swallowed, his muscles tensed, his heart continuing to beat rapidly, threatening to burst out of his throat.
The gap in the broadcasting room door widened, and a shadowy figure appeared behind the door. The owner of the figure had a smooth but cold voice and asked, "Who are you..."
"Go to hell." Jin Nan cursed softly.
The next second, Xia Jing's figure rushed into the broadcasting room in a strange and unnatural posture.
At the same time, Jin Nan took a step forward, immediately closed the door of the broadcasting room from the outside, and held the door handle tightly to prevent anyone from opening it from the inside!
Screams, fighting sounds, and the sounds of chairs and objects being knocked over came from the broadcasting room. It was a chaotic mess. Jin Nan stood outside the door, breathing rapidly, with a surprising light flashing in his eyes, and his ears perked up to listen to the movement inside.
Because of fear and excitement of the successful plan, his hands were sweaty and trembling slightly.
At this moment, three messy footsteps approached rapidly from the end of the corridor!
Song Yang, Jia Qing and Liu Yi were stunned when they saw that Jin Nan was the only one left outside the broadcasting room.
Their action went very smoothly. Although the teacher NPCs gave people a very gloomy feeling, they easily gave them the home-school contact book. In this way, they completely eliminated the teacher's suspicion.
After the music stopped, the three of them immediately rushed up to the sixth floor.
But I didn't expect to see this scene.
Jia Qing was confused and asked, "Where is Xia Jingren? Why are you the only one here?"
Jin Nan's mental state was clearly not particularly stable at the moment. He laughed strangely and panted, "This is our plan. Fatty will go in and take care of the monsters, and I'll keep watch for him outside."
"What bullshit are you talking about?!" Even a slow-witted guy like Jia Qing cursed out.
Is this a sacrifice of Xia Jing?
For what?
Didn't this guy come here just for the points? But he won't get many points this way!
Song Yang's brows turned cold.
He walked over and kicked the big guy Jin Nan away, saying coldly: "Get out of here!"
Jin Nan was kicked two or three meters away, falling flat on his back. His stomach seemed to be shattered. The pain made him turn over and curl up on the ground like a shrimp!
Jia Qing and Liu Yi were both startled. Liu Yi weakly reminded them: "You will lose points if you harm players..." Although you won't be locked up in a small dark room.
Of course Song Yang knew.
An inorganic system voice rang out in his mind: "Player Song Yang has been deducted 10 points for injuring player Jin Nan. The remaining points are..."
Song Yang sneered disdainfully, stretched out his arm and grasped the door handle.
The next second, the door handle suddenly turned by itself.
It rotates from within.
Song Yang was stunned.
It was also at this time that several people noticed that the noise in the broadcasting room had stopped at some point.
There was no human voice, let alone the sound of fighting.
There was no sound at all, only dead silence.
Realizing something, Jia Qing immediately stepped forward, grabbed Song Yang's hand with a pale face, and pulled him back a step.
Liu Yi also took the knife out of the space bag and held it in his hand.
Song Yang narrowed his eyes, moved his fingers slightly, and a dagger was turned upside down in his palm.
Jin Nan, who was not far away, climbed up from the ground with a grunt.
He was dizzy and his face turned blue after being kicked by Song Yang. He couldn't stand up completely for a while, so he could only kneel on the ground, holding the dagger tightly in his hands and holding it in front of his chest.
With a creak, the door of the campus broadcasting room was opened again from the inside.
The young man appeared behind the door.
He was holding a black standing microphone in his hand, his face was calm and composed, and his body was almost spotless. There was not even a single unnecessary wrinkle on his school uniform and school pants, and not even a strand of hair was messy. He looked clean and calm, as if he had not just fought a monster, but just gone in for a walk and came out.
Everyone was stunned.
Xia Jing was surprised for a moment when he saw Song Yang, then smiled and said, "Did your side finish so quickly?"
The young man smiled so brightly that Song Yang came to his senses, pulled Xia Jing out, and then pushed open the door of the broadcasting room completely.
——The broadcasting room was in a mess, with stools overturned and some documents scattered on the ground. The brooms and dustpans in the corner were scattered all over the place.
There was also a student NPC in school uniform, tied up and huddled in a corner, staring at them in horror.
Song Yang paused: "...Not a monster?"
"Huh?" Xia Jing turned around and looked at the student announcer.
When Xia Jing looked at the NPC, he seemed to be stressed out. He let out a hoarse whimpering sound from his blocked mouth, and his eyes were filled with pitiful tears. No one knew what had stimulated him.
Song Yang and the other two: "..."
Uh, what stimulated me? The answer seems quite obvious.
The author has something to say:
Xia Xia: I just tied it up, nothing else (sincere face)
