Yuying University
Chapter 467: I rarely feel so regretful
As the bell for the end of class rang, the darkness that had shrouded the corridor dissipated, and the once deathly silent classrooms came back to life.
Students began to wake up one after another. If they stayed here any longer, it would be easy for something unpredictable to happen.
“Let’s go.”
At Orange Candy’s command, the group quickly evacuated the school building and made their way to a deserted, open area.
“There,” Orange Candy tilted her chin up, “just dump him over there.”
With a dull “thud,” the securely bound man was thrown to the side, and his muffled groans were ignored by everyone.
“Alright,”
After directing the team members to do all this, Orange Candy finally turned her head to look at Wen Jianyan. “Tell us, what have you been up to during the time you were missing?”
Next, Wen Jianyan briefly summarized his series of encounters: how he had encountered the Bricklayer in the graveyard, escaped using a white cloth bag full of grave soil, accidentally entered the campus underground and met up with Hugo, and then disguised himself as a chef before being forced to leave the cafeteria.
Upon hearing the truth about the “pasta” in the instance, everyone’s face couldn’t help but turn pale.
Having been in [Yuying Comprehensive University] for so long, they had all eaten things from the cafeteria to varying degrees. Because of this, upon learning its true ingredients, they all couldn’t help but feel a wave of nausea.
Tian Ye, who had the weakest stomach, even bent over and dry-heaved twice.
“Damn it,” Orange Candy’s face was grim. “I knew that stuff was no good.”
Otherwise, the side effect of eating it wouldn’t be a SAN loss.
“So, should we still—” Tian Ye looked at Orange Candy, his face still a bit pale, and asked hesitantly.
“Nonsense.”
Orange Candy rolled her eyes and said coldly, “Of course we’ll eat it if we have to.”
Since becoming streamers in the Nightmare Live Room, what disgusting things hadn’t they seen? What terrifying places hadn’t they been to? As long as they could stay alive, what did it matter if the noodles were made of blood and mud?
Of course they’d eat it.
“Speaking of which, that place you were taken to, it should be right below the cafeteria?” Orange Candy asked.
Wen Jianyan screwed the cap back on his water bottle and shook his head. “Probably not. It took Hugo and me a long time to get back to the surface. It was almost impossible to tell direction underground, so I can’t be sure of the exact location of that ‘warehouse’.”
“Can you go back?” Orange Candy pressed.
Although she wasn’t good at solving instance puzzles, her sensitivity as a high-level streamer was still there.
Wen Jianyan’s description of that warehouse, as well as the conversation he had heard before entering it, made Orange Candy very concerned.
If she wasn’t mistaken, entering that warehouse with its four doors was likely very close to the core of the entire instance.
“Through normal channels?” Wen Jianyan thought for a moment and shook his head. “It would be very difficult.”
First, the cafeteria’s opening hours were short, making it almost impossible to break in during non-opening hours. Second, even during opening hours, under the surveillance of the chefs and student council members, they had almost no way to invade the back kitchen from the front.
—Leaving was simple, but entering was incredibly difficult.
Wen Jianyan: “Hugo has entered the other two doors inside the warehouse. He might know where they lead.”
“I’ll ask him.”
With that, Orange Candy took out her phone.
Three minutes later, she closed the screen with a grim face. “…Of all the times to lose contact, he chooses now, huh?”
However, even if Hugo hadn’t lost contact, the information he possessed probably wouldn’t have a major impact on the situation.
After all, he had been seriously injured behind those two doors.
Even the safest door leading to the cafeteria couldn’t be entered from the outside, so the possibility of breaking through the other two doors from the front was even lower.
“By the way,” Wen Jianyan thought of their most pressing matter, “what was the final result of your robbery?”
Being ambushed was one thing, and stealing items was another. They had to keep things separate.
“Hehe, take a guess?”
Orange Candy dug into her pocket and quickly pulled out a handful of badges.
“I was there myself. How could it not be a success?” the girl said, puffing out her chest triumphantly.
Wen Jianyan glanced at the badges in her palm.
At a rough glance, there were at least seven or eight.
Adding the few badges they already had, not only was their survival guaranteed, but they even had plenty to spare.
Wen Jianyan: “…”
They probably cleaned out the other side’s entire stash.
Now he understood why the other side would rather risk being counter-killed than have him take the badges from Orange Candy.
Orange Candy pouted. “Otherwise, why would I have needed so much time to get out of trouble?”
Wen Jianyan: “…”
Great. Now he had even figured out how Orange Candy and the others had fallen into the trap.
That streamer probably used the badges as a trap and gambled on the other side making a mistake.
They had gone all in, which was why they stumbled.
However, Wen Jianyan also realized that the fox-eyed man might have a rather deep understanding of Orange Candy… otherwise, he wouldn’t have created such a targeted trap, and he would know why he couldn’t touch the “unconscious” Orange Candy.
He thought for a moment and asked:
“Do you know that guy?”
Orange Candy’s face darkened. “Sort of.”
She pushed the badges to Wei Cheng, telling him to distribute them, then looked at Wen Jianyan and said, “That guy calls himself ‘Sherlock.’ He’s ranked around 27th, a mercenary just like me. But that guy is far more unscrupulous.”
With that, Orange Candy wrinkled her nose in disgust. “Unscrupulous and only cares about profit!”
She said in exasperation, “But more people hire him for missions than me!! My ranking is clearly higher!!”
Wen Jianyan: “…”
Is that really your main concern?
However, thinking about the final fate of the last employer who hired Orange Candy, he wasn’t too surprised by this.
“Sherlock?” Su Cheng frowned. “Does this guy like to read detective novels?”
He was somewhat unworthy of the name, though.
“Mmm,” Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes and said thoughtfully, “Perhaps he likes plays.”
Besides that famous detective, there was another, more ancient character with the same name.
The moneylender from Shakespeare’s play, The Merchant of Venice.
“Anyway, that guy is like a burr. I usually only take on single-instance missions, but his missions can often last for several instances. Once he latches on, you can’t shake him off,” Orange Candy rolled her eyes. “But, after being discovered once, at least in this instance, the possibility of him making another move is not very high.”
Obviously, just as Sherlock understood Orange Candy, Orange Candy also understood Sherlock.
After one failed attempt, the other party would definitely be more cautious the second time, and there was even a high probability that he would lay low and not act.
Wen Jianyan’s mind flashed back to the look the other had given him before leaving, and that phrase “We’ll meet again.” He couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.
Forget it.
When you’re deep in debt, you stop worrying.
“So what do we do next?” Wei Cheng asked.
“The second academic year is a total of three days, and our second day’s classes are all over.” Wei Cheng frowned and continued, “Tomorrow morning is a major course, and in the afternoon, it’s moral education class again.”
Seeing that the second academic year was about to end, their goal for entering this instance was still nowhere near being achieved.
They had even rarely returned to the administration building, which made them anxious.
Could it be that to get back to the principal’s office, they had to wait until after tomorrow’s moral education class and go through the official process?
If they really went through the official process, would they be able to find a chance to return to the third floor?
Just thinking about it made it seem hopeless.
“Leave this to me,” Wen Jianyan said.
The others looked over.
Next, Wen Jianyan briefly recounted his experience in the basketball class and the “reward” he had received.
He said, “According to the student council, the vice principal will personally present the award to me.”
“Whoa!”
Orange Candy’s eyes lit up. “In that case, you should be able to enter the administration building one more time, right?”
Wen Jianyan: “Right.”
“Wait a minute,” Su Cheng frowned. “Just you alone?”
“Not exactly,” Wen Jianyan shrugged. “And my basketball teammates.”
Su Cheng seemed to want to say something more, but Wen Jianyan seemed to have anticipated it. He shook his head and sighed:
“I know this is very dangerous, but there’s no way around it. You’ve all seen how terrifying the security guards in the administration building are. You weren’t on the basketball team back then, so there’s no way for you to get in with me.”
Su Cheng’s eyes darkened, and he said no more.
“Regardless, let’s consider tonight’s matter first.”
Wen Jianyan changed the subject, bringing the topic back.
He pointed at Weasel, who had collapsed not far away. “The society badge count refreshes at twelve o’clock every night, but we have a curfew at that time, remember?”
Indeed.
They had almost forgotten about that.
Everyone frowned.
As club members, they had a certain ability to resist the instance’s forced sleep, but they definitely couldn’t break the curfew and stay outside the dormitory all night just for this. The cost and uncertain factors were too great.
Orange Candy: “Isn’t this easy to solve?”
“Can’t one of you just take him back to your dorm and keep an eye on him?” the girl said with a grin. “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure he can’t escape.”
Wen Jianyan: “I’ll pass.”
He shrugged, putting on a pitiful expression. “I’ve had a very thrilling day. Just let me get a good night’s sleep.”
“Fine.”
Orange Candy didn’t insist.
In the end, it was Wei Cheng who volunteered to be the one to watch Weasel.
Buzz buzz!
Suddenly, Orange Candy’s phone vibrated twice.
Everyone was startled and turned to look.
Almost all of them were here. Could it be a message from Hugo?
Obviously, Orange Candy thought so too.
She took out her phone with a grin. “That guy is pretty sensible—”
Before she could finish, the smile on Orange Candy’s face disappeared.
She stared at the content on her phone, her expression unusually ugly.
“What’s wrong?” Wen Jianyan noticed her abnormality and asked with concern.
“It’s not Hugo.”
Orange Candy looked up, a cold light flickering in her pupils. “It’s the Bricklayer.”
“What?!”
Everyone was shocked.
Generally speaking, in an instance, only teammates could send messages to each other. However, there were exceptions in special cases. If both parties voluntarily exchanged contact information within the instance, it was also possible to establish contact with others.
As for Orange Candy’s case, it was very likely that the Bricklayer had used some other means.
Wen Jianyan looked at him. “What does he want from you?”
Orange Candy nonchalantly showed him her phone screen:
“He wants to talk to us about this instance.”
Wen Jianyan glanced at the content and looked at Orange Candy again. “So what do you think?”
“Not meeting him.”
Orange Candy’s reply was crisp and decisive.
She turned off her phone with a blank expression and said, “Before he laid a hand on my teammates, this might have been negotiable. Now?”
Orange Candy sneered:
“In his dreams.”
“Next time I see him, I’ll see if I don’t kill him.”
Wen Jianyan stopped in his tracks.
He looked up at the low, three-story building in front of him.
It was the administration building.
The main door was still tightly closed as before. Through the gray glass, it was impossible to see what was inside.
“…”
Wen Jianyan’s fingers, hanging at his side, curled slightly.
His sleeve covered the web between his thumb and index finger, but the deepening black bruise and the gradually protruding bite mark could be faintly seen underneath.
Last night, after the club recruitment, the bite mark had almost completely healed. If one didn’t look closely, the traces were almost invisible. However, as time moved closer to twelve o’clock, the bite mark became more and more obvious, and its color deepened.
According to what Wen Jianyan had previously overheard outside the basketball club, they wanted to find him to prevent him from receiving the award.
This was precisely why he had to receive the award before twelve o’clock tonight.
Once it was past twelve, the marking effect of the bite mark would activate again, and he would have no more chances to receive the award. And once he succeeded tonight, the other party would have no reason to continue hunting him down. Even if the bite mark didn’t disappear, his situation would greatly improve.
The sound of footsteps came from not far away. Wen Jianyan turned to look.
Several people were walking towards the administration building from a distance.
Besides Brother Hu and A-Bao, there were other members of the basketball team.
But…
Wen Jianyan’s gaze circled around the few people, and he narrowed his eyes.
Not only were there fewer people than he remembered, but even the remaining few looked very tired, and he could faintly smell the familiar scent of blood on them.
Clearly, today’s “course” had also been very challenging for them.
He just didn’t know if the few who hadn’t come were already dead, or if they had decided to give up on this “reward” out of fear.
Seeing Wen Jianyan, Brother Hu and A-Bao greeted him enthusiastically.
Wen Jianyan smiled and nodded. “Good evening.”
Zhao Ze turned his head and pointed at the two men and one woman behind him. “These are the only ones who could make it. The others either couldn’t be contacted, or they were contacted but weren’t planning on coming.”
The three introduced themselves.
The tall man was named Cheng Can, the short girl was Bai Qiangwei, and the other slightly chubby man was named A-Rui.
Besides Bai Qiangwei, who was a streamer who had entered when the instance opened for the second time, the other two had survived from the very beginning of the instance.
Brother Hu turned his head to look at the administration building. Although he was a tall and burly man, he still couldn’t help but shrink his shoulders.
He swallowed hard and said drily:
“This place is really creepy. It makes one feel uncomfortable just looking at it.”
Wen Jianyan followed his gaze and sighed.
“Indeed.”
Although it wasn’t his first time coming to the administration building, no matter how many times he came, he would still be so stimulated by the atmosphere that his hair would stand on end… not to mention, he knew better than the others how dangerous it was here.
“We’re just here to receive an award. Nothing major should happen, right?”
Although Zhao Ze said this, his tone was very uncertain, as if he were full of doubt about his own words.
Wen Jianyan: “…I hope so.”
After confirming that there was no one else, the group walked towards the administration building.
As the gray, dirty glass door was pulled open, the familiar, empty hall appeared before them.
Wen Jianyan had just taken a step forward when, a few meters away, a voice suddenly sounded:
“Do you have an appointment?”
The voice was hoarse and strange, particularly abrupt in the deathly silent hall, making everyone shudder and subconsciously turn to look.
In the dark security room, a figure was vaguely visible.
It was motionless, and its face couldn’t be seen clearly. Although it was far away, it made one’s hair stand on end.
Wen Jianyan composed himself and answered, “Yes.”
He continued calmly, “We’re from the school basketball team. We’re here to receive an award.”
His voice fell, sinking like a stone, without receiving any response.
In the seemingly endless wait, cold sweat couldn’t help but seep from everyone’s foreheads.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, a pale hand slowly extended from the small window below the security room. A scarlet registration book was pressed under its palm.
The palm silently retracted once more.
Everyone looked at each other, a little hesitant to move forward.
Is this… okay?
Wen Jianyan took a deep breath and took the lead, striding over.
He bent down and scanned the counter.
This time, what was pushed out along with it was not an ink pad, but a familiar old fountain pen.
This meant that, unlike the club recruitment, this time they needed to register with their “real names.”
Thoughts spun in his mind. Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes, his slender fingers gripping the fountain pen. With a couple of swift strokes, he left his student number behind with flowing, elegant script.
Then, he pushed it aside and waited for the others to finish registering.
Seeing Wen Jianyan do this, and with no accidents occurring, the others finally dared to step forward. They followed Wen Jianyan’s example and left their student numbers in the registration book one by one.
After everyone had finished registering, the pale hand slowly extended from the darkness again, pressed down on the book, and brought it back.
Looking at the empty counter, the group felt no sense of relief. Instead, they felt even more tense and heavy.
As the book was taken back, from within the dark window, that eerie voice sounded again:
“The vice principal will arrive at twelve o’clock tonight.”
What?
The few of them were stunned. They exchanged shocked and panicked glances, obviously not having expected this. Even Wen Jianyan couldn’t help but feel his heart sink.
“Twelve o’clock tonight?”
The person who had introduced himself as Cheng Can couldn’t help but speak up first.
“But, but, what about the curfew?”
Twelve o’clock was too late.
Even if the entire “award ceremony” was completely safe and they could leave immediately after receiving their prizes, they wouldn’t be able to get back to their dorms before the curfew.
No one knew what the campus was like after the curfew, and they didn’t know if they could successfully return to their dorms after missing the closing time.
The security room was deathly silent.
No one responded to Cheng Can’s question.
In the dim light, the blurry shadow remained motionless, seemingly only responsible for informing, not for answering.
“And,” Zhao Ze also frowned.
He looked down at the time and continued, “There are still a full five hours until twelve o’clock at night. Are we just going to wait here?”
Time was precious in the instance, especially when it had already progressed to the second academic year. Waiting in the first-floor hall of the administration building for five hours was obviously a bit too wasteful.
“If you ask me,” A-Rui suggested, “why don’t we leave here first to do other tasks, and come back when it’s time.”
The others agreed one after another.
Of course, as for what they were really thinking, and whether they would still risk breaking the rules to come to the administration building so late, that was another matter.
After agreeing on a time to return, they turned and walked towards the door.
Wen Jianyan leaned against the wall, his arms crossed, and said nothing.
Zhao Ze turned his head and couldn’t help but be stunned:
“Bro, aren’t you coming with us—”
Before his voice could fall, a loud “bang” came from the front hall.
Zhao Ze shivered and couldn’t help but swallow the rest of his words, subconsciously turning his head to look in the direction of the sound.
Not far away, the gray glass door of the front hall was slammed shut by some invisible force.
Cheng Can, who was just about to reach out and pull the door open, was so scared he jumped, stumbling back several steps, and only came to his senses after a long time.
“What, what’s going on?” Brother Hu and A-Bao beside him were also completely baffled, utterly confused.
The chubby A-Rui boldly moved forward, placed his hand on the doorknob, and tried to open the door—but the door, which could have been easily pulled open just now, was now like it was cast from solid iron. Even though he was using all his strength, he still couldn’t make it tremble in the slightest.
“Before the registration is complete, registrants are not allowed to leave.”
At this moment, that cold, eerie voice came from the security room again.
A chill couldn’t help but run down everyone’s backs.
“Ouch!” A-Rui, who was closest to the door, suddenly cried out, jerked his hand away from the doorknob, and took several steps back.
“What’s wrong?”
The people around him were startled by his action and hurriedly asked.
“It’s, it’s cold.” A-Rui swallowed and looked at the doorknob again, still shaken. “There was a very cold feeling coming from it…”
Wen Jianyan, who hadn’t spoken since the beginning, suddenly opened his mouth:
“Did you lose SAN?”
A-Rui glanced at the top right corner, his face turning pale. “…Yes.”
All at once, the atmosphere in the entire hall became even heavier.
No one spoke for a while.
They all knew that they probably couldn’t get out and could only obediently wait here for five hours until the award ceremony was over.
Wen Jianyan let out a long breath.
…Damn it, he knew it wouldn’t be so smooth.
He took out his phone and began to send a message to Orange Candy and the others, informing his teammates of his whereabouts for the next few hours.
[The award ceremony starts at 12 PM. I can’t leave the administration building before then. Don’t worry.]
Orange Candy quickly replied to the message.
[Don’t Mess With Me: Got it.]
[Don’t Mess With Me: The Seer just gave a prophecy. We’re going to check out the library next, see if we can get a library card or something.]
Wen Jianyan replied:
[Okay.]
After doing all this, he put his phone back in his pocket, looked at the crowd, and kindly advised, “You guys should probably stick together and be cautious. After all, this is the administration building. No one can guarantee that nothing unexpected will happen in the next five hours.”
The crowd: “…”
Thanks, that’s really reassuring.
In “Integrity First” live room chat:
[Jinx, shut up!]
[Jinx, shut up!]
[LMAO, before he said anything, maybe nothing would have happened. After Wen Jianyan said something, it’s really not certain anymore.]
Aside, Brother Hu was stunned, seeming to have caught Wen Jianyan’s hidden meaning: “‘We’?”
He scratched his head. “Little brother, what do you mean? Are you planning to act alone?”
Wen Jianyan nodded. “Yes.”
Including him, there were only seven people present. It was easy to see who was there and who wasn’t, so naturally, there was no need for him to hide his next move.
“I plan to explore the vicinity a bit.”
But… as for what his purpose was, there was no need to inform them.
The others all showed somewhat surprised expressions.
Just staying in this administration building, full of NPCs and unknown dangers, was already terrifying enough for them. This guy was actually going to explore… This was simply not afraid of death.
Even if it was the other who had led them to victory in yesterday’s basketball game, it wasn’t enough for them to risk their lives and follow this guy to his death.
And Wen Jianyan obviously had no intention of letting them follow. After a brief notification, he turned and prepared to leave.
“…”
Brother Hu stood where he was, watching Wen Jianyan’s back, his rugged face full of struggle.
Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his hand, pulled A-Bao, and then trotted after him. “Hey, let’s go with you!”
“?”
Wen Jianyan raised his eyebrows, a look of surprise on his face. “Hmm? Are you sure?”
“Hah.”
Brother Hu rubbed the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed. “It’s five hours anyway. We’re idle either way. Besides, letting you act alone, little brother, feels a bit too dangerous.”
A-Bao nodded. “Exactly, exactly.”
“Alright,” Wen Jianyan thought for a moment and said.
To be honest, although he appeared calm on the surface, he was also a bit spooked about acting alone. Although it was unlikely that Brother Hu and A-Bao would be of much use, having a few more people would at least provide some moral support.
Thus, the three of them left the hall and walked into the corridor.
Brother Hu leaned closer and saw the words on the door: “Club… Activity Room?”
Wen Jianyan: “Right.”
He glanced to the side. “But, it looks like no one is here.”
This time, all the room doors in the first-floor corridor were tightly closed, and it was pitch black inside. Obviously, there were usually no club members stationed here.
It had to be said that the fact that there was no one on the first floor was somewhat reassuring for them.
The three of them walked straight through the corridor and towards the stairwell.
The light in the corridor was already dim enough; the stairwell was so dark it was unnerving.
They had only taken a few steps up when A-Bao spotted the tightly closed iron door. “Damn, the door is locked.”
Brother Hu: “Can you get it open?”
A-Bao frowned. “It’s difficult. This thing is not ordinary—”
Before he could finish his sentence, Wen Jianyan walked up, took out a string of keys from his pocket with a clatter, quickly found one, and stuck it in.
The whole set of actions was smooth and skilled, as if he had done this more than once.
Before the other two could react, with a soft “click,” the “not ordinary” door in front of them was directly opened.
Brother Hu and A-Bao: “…”
Wen Jianyan took two steps forward and turned to look. “Hmm? Aren’t you coming?”
“Coming, coming.”
Only then did the two of them come to their senses and hurry to catch up.
The stairs from the first floor to the second floor were short. Before the two could recover from their daze, they had arrived on the second floor.
Seeing that the door to the stairwell was right in front of them, Wen Jianyan suddenly stopped.
He turned to look at the other two and said in a very cautious tone, “The second floor is different from the first floor. This floor won’t be empty. You still have a chance to turn back now.”
“What turn back? You’re looking down on us!”
Brother Hu puffed out his chest.
A-Bao nodded. “Yeah, yeah, don’t worry, bro. We definitely won’t let you down.”
“Okay,” Wen Jianyan walked forward.
The three of them left the stairwell.
Sure enough, just as Wen Jianyan had said, although the doors of the rooms on the second floor were tightly closed, a faint crimson light seeped out from under some of the doors, looking particularly dazzling on the floor.
“…”
Brother Hu and A-Bao exchanged a shocked glance.
What the hell?
How did he know?
You’re asking me? How the hell should I know?
Wen Jianyan’s purpose for coming to the second floor was also very simple.
He wasn’t planning to go as deep into this floor as before, but just to check the status of the promotion office and then leave.
He cautiously took a few steps forward and cast his gaze towards the location of the promotion office in his memory.
Unlike the previous academic year, this time, although the door was still tightly closed, the lights were brightly lit.
Obviously, they were still working overtime.
After tomorrow afternoon’s moral education class, he should be able to handle the so-called “promotion procedures” here.
He just didn’t know if that female teacher in red still held a grudge…
In “Integrity First” live room chat:
[Oh, I remember now. You’re the culprit behind their overtime.]
[…Wen Jianyan, you’ve done all sorts of evil!]
The culprit, this time, was very sensible and didn’t continue forward.
After all, he was not only the direct cause of the promotion office reopening, but he had also just killed a student council member. Although he didn’t know what the consequences might be, Wen Jianyan knew that he had probably become a thorn in the side of this faction. Unless he was stupid, he would never risk his life.
After observing the surroundings for a while, Wen Jianyan beckoned to Brother Hu and A-Bao and mouthed:
“Let’s go.”
The two of them couldn’t ask for more.
If the first floor of the administration building was already creepy enough, the level of terror on the second floor was almost a whole new level. The dark corridor was smeared with crimson light. This feeling of knowing that there was something terrifying hidden behind the door, but not knowing when it would be discovered, was the worst, simply bone-chilling.
Even if Wen Jianyan didn’t say it, they didn’t want to stay on the second floor any longer.
The three of them quickly returned to the stairwell.
Although the red light from under the door had been left behind, they were still shaken.
Brother Hu lowered his voice. “Damn, that seems to be the student council office… they’re in there?”
Cold sweat also seeped from A-Bao’s forehead. “Yes, the aura inside is very terrifying. Just now, I was just—”
Before he could finish his sentence, his peripheral vision caught Wen Jianyan continuing to walk up.
“Wait, wait a minute?” A-Bao looked at Wen Jianyan, who was bending over to take out his keys, his voice a little off-key. “Little brother? What are you planning to do?”
In just a few seconds, the door from the second floor to the third floor was opened by Wen Jianyan again.
He held the door with one hand and turned to look over:
“Going upstairs.”
Under the dim light, that handsome face looked particularly innocent.
Brother Hu couldn’t help but swallow. “Upstairs… what’s upstairs?”
“The offices of the vice principal and the principal.”
Wen Jianyan’s answer was light, but to the other two, it was like a bolt from the blue.
—What the hell???
—Whose and whose offices???
Before they could recover from their shock, they heard Wen Jianyan comfort them, “Don’t worry. Didn’t the security guard just say? The vice principal won’t be here until after twelve o’clock.”
In the darkness, the young man’s innocent face now looked particularly hateful.
He lowered his voice and said stealthily:
“What a great opportunity.”
Brother Hu and A-Bao: “………………”
I’ve rarely regretted anything this much.
Seriously.
