Chapter 325 Beware of the Rabbit (7) Returning at night


Through the narration text, Qiss almost understood the setting of this copy.

Reiko was destined to die within seven days. In order to save her, a person kept restarting the timeline, but failed again and again; Reiko's dead body in these reincarnations remained.

Based on the remarks on the Rabbit God Statue, Reiko's death was probably due to being sacrificed to the Rabbit God; as for the person who tried to save her, it was most likely Lu Ming.

He created the game "Escape from Usagi Kamachi". Although he doesn't know what it has to do with the world of Hope Middle School, it is probably to open up another way to save Reiko outside the doomed world line.

Unfortunately, the person controlling Lu Ming's body now is Qisi, who has no interest in the rescue mission, and the main mission is to sit back and watch Reiko's death. Finding seven corpses is enough...

In Qisi's view, if the game allowed, he could even kill Reiko four times and collect four corpses.

What Qisi is more concerned about is that the two tasks of "attending the fireworks festival seven days later" and "finding Qi Reiko's body" are actually interchangeable.

Except for the "Colosseum" dungeon, where the difficulty of the two main missions is different due to the intervention of the [Dark Judge] card, the alternative tasks in other dungeons are generally of the same difficulty.

Even if it seems relatively simple, you will encounter various troublesome problems during the actual completion process.

"Participating in the fireworks festival seven days later" will obviously encounter death threats, while "finding Qi Reiko's body" is nothing special except for being disgusting. I don't know where the trouble lies.

"Is it because the location is particularly tricky to find, or what will happen after we find them all?" Qisi thought, no longer paying attention to Reiko's body, and walked all the way towards the dormitory building.

There are scattered white street lights on the road, but the darkness never dissipates.

The dormitory building is a four-story building where men and women live together. The third and fourth floors are for boys, and the first and second floors are for girls. Because the stairs are distributed on both sides of the corridor, it is stipulated that boys go to the left and girls go to the left. on the right, so generally speaking they don't interfere with each other.

The iron door of the dormitory building is now wide open, but it is dark inside. Obviously, it is not ready to welcome the students.

On the other hand, there was a row of projection screens on the ground outside the door. They were brightly lit, playing the promotional video of Yongsheng Technology Company.

In the laboratory, an experimenter in a white coat is dissecting a snow-white rabbit.

The rabbit lay quietly on the experimental table, motionless and silent, its chest was slowly opened with a scalpel, and the blood soaked the white rabbit fur, revealing the beating heart behind it.

The next second, the screen flashed, and the rabbit in the image turned into a patient wearing a hospital gown, surrounded by a circle of doctors wearing masks.

This transition was too underworld, conveying a suspicious synesthesia of a doctor dissecting a patient like a rabbit, and for no reason Zeiss thought of darker aspects.

"Which class are you in?" A shout came from the dormitory building, and a woman as thin and slender as a bamboo pole walked out of the darkness.

She was wearing a gray coat with sparrow feathers, her gray hair was tied behind her head, and her wrinkled face was embedded with a pair of falcon-like eyes. She looked at Qiss sternly: "You are not studying in the classroom at this time, why are you running here? ?”

Qisi glanced at the work badge hanging on the woman’s chest.

[Name: Qian Dali]

[Position: Hope Middle School Dormitory Administrator]

He put on a timid look in a second and called weakly : "Qian...Hello, Teacher Qian!"

Qisi's voice was as light as a gnat, and his complexion was as pale as a ghost, which made him look helpless.

The female dormitory looked blankly at the young man in front of her, whose face became increasingly ugly, and his body became crooked and he could no longer stand straight.

She didn’t dare to say anything more for a while. Whose responsibility does it take to die in front of the dormitory building?

"I'm a little dizzy and out of breath. The teacher asked me to go back to the dormitory and lie down for a while." Qisi gasped, walked sideways, and leaned against the wall.

The female dormitory manager saw that he was breathing more and less, and quickly stepped forward to support him: "Classmate, you are like this. Go home quickly and ask your parents to take you to the hospital. ! ”

Qisi lowered his eyes and sighed quietly: "I have no parents."

Female dormitory: "?"

"I grew up in a welfare institution and was sponsored by Yongsheng Technology Company. Study." Qisi stopped and made up a lie, "Teacher Qian, don't worry about me. I just have an irregular heartbeat. It's not that important. I'm in the third grade of junior high school and I can't afford to waste time... "

He paused for a moment, raised his eyes and smiled gratefully at the female dormitory manager: "But thank you for your concern!"

The female dormitory manager obviously liked this very much. His attitude was even gentler: "Go back to your dormitory and rest quickly. If anything happens, you must tell the teacher in time."

Qisi gave a soft "hmm" and looked like he was struggling, dragging his legs into the dormitory building.

His steps were very light, but he still triggered the sensor light.

There was a "pop" sound, and the pale light was cast without warning, illuminating the floor with gray and black stains and the peeling walls.

The hall on the first floor is messily displayed with sanitary utensils, as well as various cardboard boxes and garbage bags. The stairs on the left crookedly disappeared into the darkness, and the glass of the duty room on the right was covered with dirty papers. Some were wrinkled by the sewage, and some had been torn off in half, with half left. White seal.

Qisi took a few steps towards the stairs. As if he had thought of something, he turned back to the duty room and smiled at the female dormitory manager who was walking towards him step by step: "Teacher Qian, do you want me to go back to the dormitory early?" Register? Thank you for helping me get the roster. I also want to take a look at the deductions in our dormitory. ”

The female dormitory manager had no doubts about his presence, but felt that the student in front of her was well-behaved and self-conscious. Only orphans who had not been spoiled by their parents could be so obedient.

She walked into the duty room, took out a thick roster from the drawer, and handed it to Qiss along with the ballpoint pen clipped on it.

Qisi took it with both hands and turned to the page of Class 3 (9).

Unlike other classes where most students live on campus, Class 9 of junior high school only has one dormitory, so it makes sense for four dormitory students to be packed together and thrown together.

Qisi silently wrote down his original dormitory number, and by the way, the names and beds of his three roommates.

He circled the name "Lu Ming" with his pen, then put down the list and politely said goodbye to the female dormitory.

He turned around "weakly" and went upstairs "with difficulty" holding on to the handrail of the stairs.

As we walked, we heard footsteps along the way, and the sensor lights above our heads lit up in response to the sound. They were placed above our heads a few steps ahead to guide the way, casting pale lights one by one.

Up to the second floor, all the friendly smiles on Qisi’s face disappeared and he became indifferent.

It suddenly occurred to him that when the female dormitory manager walked out of the dormitory just now, she did not trigger a sensor light.

But this is no longer important. Whether the NPC is a human or a ghost does not mean much to this copy.

Qisi gathered his thoughts, quickened his pace, and quickly climbed to the fourth floor.

Perhaps because there is no regular ventilation, the air is mixed with the smell of fermented disinfectant water. The whole person is immersed in the musty smell, as if it is about to rot together with the building.

The long and narrow corridors like monster intestines spread out in front of you, and the doors of each room are like iron cabinets in a crematorium.

Qisi raised his eyes and counted the dormitory number, stopped at the door of dormitory 0415, pushed the door open and entered.

In the coffin-like long and narrow bedroom, there is only one iron door with a small glass window facing the window in the bathroom that is covered with barbed wire. Four narrow beds are squeezed into a space of less than 20 square meters. In the dim light, there are only four beds. A dark shadow.

Zis pressed the light switch, and the strip light flickered twice. You could see the suspicious yellow spots and mosquito corpses on the edge of the light tube.

Under the pale light, the gray scratches and yellowish stains on the walls are clearly visible, and the iron bed frame and wardrobe are stained with rust. All the furnishings were visibly old, with a damp smell of decay coming to their faces.

Qisi walked straight to bed No. 3 near the toilet, which was Lu Ming's bed, and checked it briefly. To his relief, Lu Ming's personal hygiene was well taken care of. At least there was no dust, hair or human skin on the bed.

The blue and white striped quilts are folded in a square shape, with a gray pillow placed on top, placed flatly in the middle.

Under the bed is a suitcase, which contains some changes of clothes and odds and ends such as soap and body wash. It seems to serve as a storage cabinet.

There is a document in the mezzanine of the suitcase - "Yongsheng Technology Company's Funding Agreement for Lu Ming".

Qisi read the document hastily.

It said that if Lu Ming could pass the best high school in the city, he could study all the way up and eventually become an employee of Yongsheng Technology Company.

If not, he will have to stay at Hope Middle School and work as a volunteer until the company's expenses on him are repaid.

As for what such a student with a junior high school degree can do, the terms of the document did not say anything.

"His" bed can be searched at any time, and Qiss doesn't plan to waste too much time on it.

He began to search the beds of his roommates one by one.

Under the pillow of the principal of Dormitory No. 1 is a copy of the school regulations. It is full of clichés, nothing more than nonsense like attending classes on time, studying hard, respecting teachers, and being friendly to classmates.

Put together with it is a class schedule including the time. It is the kind that is also posted in the classroom. It is of little use.

There is a wrinkled novel hidden under the mattress of bed No. 2. It is an old antique called "Dragon".

Qisi flipped through it briefly and found that this roommate had carefully written comments on it, which was considered to be a manual activation of the chapter review function.

Roommate No. 4 was probably interested in campus weird stories. He hid a notebook in his pillowcase, in which he pretended to be an "investigator" and recorded various "weird things" with meticulous penmanship.

["Cursed Land": Hope Middle School was built on a cursed land. Legend has it that a god once sent down divine punishment at the fireworks festival, killing all those who worshiped him and cursing them in the firework festival. descendants who live on this land.

[In order to save money when investing in building a school, the chairman of Yongsheng Technology Company bought this piece of land at a low price as a school site. Investigators spent a month investigating the surrounding area and found that cries would be heard from the lakeside in the school in the middle of the night. When you get closer, you can vaguely see ghosts at the bottom of the lake. 】

It sounds ridiculous, but there are only a few old clichés about campus rumors circulating among students: the school is either built on a cemetery or on the foundation of a hospital; a few people must have drowned in the lake.

But in this copy, these records are very likely to be true.

The system prompts are not deceptive. In the game "Escape from Usagi-gami Town", something did happen to the fireworks festival seven days after Usagi-gami Town. Only an event like divine punishment from the gods can kill everyone.

What Zeiss didn’t expect was that Usagiami Town actually existed and was once located on the boundary of Hope Middle School.

He continued to look down.

["Weird and haunted boy": Investigators discovered that roommate Lu Ming has been behaving quite strangely recently and often goes out secretly in the middle of the night. Investigators followed up and found that he went to the rooftop many times, stood at the nine o'clock corner and looked down. Suspected to be haunted by something strange, awaiting follow-up observation. 】

Qiss: "..."

He was basically sure that the person who wrote these notes was suffering from a bit of chuunibyou.

However, the information provided in the notebook is worth noting. What is Lu Ming looking at when he goes to the rooftop every night?

Chis’s eyes were attracted by the third strange story.

["The Curse of the Rabbit God": Before Lu Ming disappeared, he found investigators and claimed that he had made a wish to a being called the "Rabbit God" and was about to encounter misfortune as a result. Judging from the results, the Rabbit God is extremely dangerous and it is recommended to be cautious when approaching it. 】

"Lu Ming" was mentioned in the notes.

It turned out that Qisi guessed through the performance of Li Fang and Reiko that Lu Ming did not really exist, but was just a personality of "Lu Ming", that is, the boy who made the game "Escape from Usagi Kamachi" for him to play.

But now it seems that Lu Ming and Lu Ming are not the same person.

He made a wish to the Rabbit God and sacrificed himself, so did he disappear from other people’s memories?

What kind of existence is he, and what is the wish he made to the Rabbit God?

There are too few clues and not much information can be inferred.

Qisi suppressed his chaotic thoughts and patiently restored the furnishings in the dormitory one by one.

Estimating the time, the evening self-study is over, but it will take a while for the students to put away their homework and rush back.

He walked up to the rooftop and stood at nine o'clock, which is the west side of the rooftop, according to the description in his notes, and leaned down to look down.

From this angle, you can see the natural lake that was preserved during the construction of the school. A small pool of amber-shaped lake surface is reflecting sparkling light under the illumination of street lights.

The outer side of the natural lake is covered with dense forests, which makes Qisi think of the image at the beginning of the copy for no reason. It is also a dense forest with layers of branches and leaves, making it difficult to find the road.

“It’s a good place to kill people and bury their bodies.”

Qisi chuckled and climbed the rusty escalator downstairs, back to the dormitory.

He spread out the bed No. 3 belonging to Lu Ming, and a lined book fell out in time.

There are some figures written crookedly on the first few pages, which are probably recording daily expenses.

Then I started to use a red pen to record some of the things that happened every day, mostly unpleasant encounters.

[Name: Lu Ming’s Notebook]

[Type: Props (copies cannot be taken out)]

[Remarks: ##Error##]
< br>

The prompt text was refreshed on it, accompanied by scenes and scenes, mixed with auditory hallucinations of human voices.

"Lu Ming is a harmful monster! He should be let out!"

"Lu Ming is evil, and anyone who comes close to him will not end well... ..."

"I see that he is holding those rabbit bones all day long. Is he trying to curse someone?"

A mixture of hateful, inflammatory, hearsay, and so on. Together, they exerted the greatest malice on "Lu Ming".

The face of the young man "Lu Ming" in a white school uniform was blurry. He sat quietly in his seat, with three rabbit skeletons placed on the desk in front of him.

He held a handkerchief and wiped the white bones almost gracefully, with gentle and compassionate movements...

Qisi blinked, and the picture disappeared like clouds, like an illusion.

He quickly turned back a few pages of the diary.

The corners of one page were folded, and a strange children's song was written on it.

[The head sank at the bottom of the pond, and the limbs were hidden in the east, west, and south]

[The girl died on August 6, and her body was buried deep in the woods] (End of this chapter)
