Chapter 1814: Chapter 1659: Game 11
Before Miao Shuangshuang could continue speaking, a rapid series of footsteps sounded from one side, and everyone turned to see a group of people hurriedly following behind a man.
The leading man looked to be in his thirties, handsome in appearance, dressed in a British-style suit, exuding a gentleman-like vibe, very charismatic.
Miao Shuangshuang recognized him; she had seen a photo of the person in the principal’s office — he was the principal of the school.
The principal saw the deceased Teacher Fan, his face turned grim, he took a deep breath to suppress his inner irritation, and surveyed the students gathered around: "Who among you first saw Teacher Fan?"
A girl timidly circled past Teacher Fan, addressing the principal: "Principal, it was me and that female student who discovered Teacher Fan together."
As the girl spoke, she pointed to the female player among the couple, clearly she must have been in the same dormitory with this female player last night, and going out together today, only to unfortunately come across Teacher Fan who was killed by the female ghost.
The principal immediately called the girl and the female player to him for questioning, while Miao Shuangshuang’s attention remained on the female ghost in the red dress floating in mid-air.
The appearance of this red-dressed female ghost could only be described as ordinary, unmatched with the principal’s handsome looks, yet her gaze towards the principal was utterly obsessed.
Once the principal appeared, the female ghost, who had been enjoying the spectacle, descended from mid-air, constantly circling the principal, murmuring to herself.
"Ah Zheng, how have you been these days? Without me by your side, have you been taking care of yourself? You have a stomach condition and shouldn’t go hungry, have you been eating well without my reminders?"
The female ghost, full of tenderness, kept musing around the man, resembling a gentle wife deeply concerned for her husband.
Until the principal called the girl and the female player to his side for questioning, the expression of the red-dressed female ghost suddenly changed.
She first looked sorrowfully at the principal, tearfully exclaiming, "Ah Zheng, how can you look at others? Ah Zheng, have you taken a fancy to them?"
Finished, the ghost turned to glare maliciously at the girls in front of the principal, her eyes venomous and cursing, "You wicked women, dare seduce my husband, I won’t let you off!"
After uttering these words, the female ghost raised her hand to choke the girl nearest to her, and Miao Shuangshuang, who had been watching her, immediately gripped the handle of her short knife, ready to draw it and stop her.
Unexpectedly, as the ghost reached out, she suddenly screamed, seemingly controlled by some force, her body soaring up high.
Struggling viciously, the ghost couldn’t control her ascent into the open window of the sixth floor, instantly sucked inside.
Miao Shuangshuang released the knife handle, breathed a sigh of relief; evidently, this female ghost couldn’t arbitrarily commit murder.
The principal quickly finished questioning, dismissing the students to the canteen for food and classes, leaving the players to gather and head towards the canteen.
With Teacher Fan’s incident, everyone’s mood was bleak.
This unknown was even more frightening.
Yet, it was clear now that following rules wouldn’t solve the problem.
While eating in the canteen, Miao Shuangshuang assembled some porridge, grabbed four eggs, a dish of pickled vegetables, poured a bowl of soy milk, and took four dough sticks.
Miao Shuangshuang needed to practice martial arts to maintain fighting ability, thus had a larger appetite; had she known what meat was in the buns, she surely would have eaten a few more.
The two veteran players shared a similar appetite with Miao Shuangshuang, Chi Qing also followed her lead, gathering a lot of food.
Meanwhile, the remaining players, having just seen a dead body, had poor appetites and took little food.
Miao Shuangshuang glanced at them, somewhat wanting to shake her head; yesterday, these people barely ate after witnessing the twin brothers’ death, and now the same.
Underfeeding would lead to insufficient energy, and when encountering danger, forget fighting, even escaping could be slow, practically inviting death.
Outside, in the normal world, this would be understandable; here, it turned into fussiness.
Watching Chi Qing stubbornly swallow despite clear disgust, Miao Shuangshuang thought these players seemed adults, yet lacked such understanding compared to a child.
After the meal, it was time to exchange information as usual, with the couple, Nail Girl, and Non-mainstream Guy all having nothing to share.
Miao Shuangshuang frowned slightly; their plan seemed to be to idle through the game until the end; perhaps noticing Miao Shuangshuang’s displeasure, the woman among the couple glanced at her discontentedly.
"It’s only the second day in the game, there isn’t that much to share yet; surviving for ten days, finding information isn’t that easy."
After she spoke, her boyfriend, Nail Girl, and Non-mainstream Guy nodded in agreement, evidently sharing the same thought, while the two veteran players remained silent, looking on as if enjoying a show.
Miao Shuangshuang hadn’t spoken when Chi Qing beside her promptly retorted, "You’re just too dumb to search, why can others find information but you can’t collect a single bit!"
Having spoken, Chi Qing ignored the newcomers, pulling Miao Shuangshuang, "Sis, let’s go, wasting time with them is useless, let them slowly search by themselves."
Following Chi Qing’s pull, Miao Shuangshuang stood up, turned to leave, yet couldn’t resist warning the woman among the couple.
"You’d better be careful, don’t wander alone when walking, also, stay away from the principal, his wife..."
Miao Shuangshuang intended to kindly warn the woman, given the principal’s ghost wife was clearly jealous and somewhat mentally unstable.
She probably killed Teacher Fan because the principal spoke to him, possibly admiring him, spurring the ghost’s jealousy.
And the female player and girl were also clearly targeted by the principal’s wife today; judging by her murderous expression, she evidently planned harm against them.
However, perhaps due to Chi Qing’s criticism, the female player resented Miao Shuangshuang protected by Chi Qing and misunderstood her good intentions.
Before Miao Shuangshuang finished speaking, she sarcastically said, "First you tell us to collect clues, now warn me to stay away from the principal; all said by you, contradictory, minding so much, who do you think you are?"
Miao Shuangshuang closed her mouth, suddenly chuckled softly, and turned to walk away; since her kindness was unappreciated, she needn’t waste her breath further.
