Now that Li Mo is dead, they naturally dispersed. No one wanted to listen to anyone else's orders, and they just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
If you continue to wait, it will be too late to regret if something unexpected happens.
Chapter 44 The Extra "Seventh Person"
"I understand. You don't need to say any more, and you don't need to make excuses for your selfish and narrow-minded personality. Aren't you saying all this just to make yourself feel at ease, shift all the responsibility, and leave without feeling guilty?"
"I can't stop you alone, and I won't stop you."
"But I will stay because I am not that cruel. I know who saved me and who died because of me."
"You don't have to be so hypocritical, giving high-sounding reasons while racking your brains to do disgusting things."
"I'm different from you. I can't turn a blind eye to the sacrifices of others. There are risks in staying. In this environment, no one can guarantee safety. Despite this, I will follow my own heart and fulfill the obligations that a living person should fulfill."
"I have a clear conscience."
"I trust him, that's all."
Saori Tsuruyu is outspoken and speaks harshly and to the point, a complete change of her previous timid and inferior character.
She had decided to leave Saint Freya's greenhouse and join Shigure Kirara's team after this was over.
If Shigure Kirara dies, she will reapply to Skyward Sword, join Skyward Sword's Valkyrie Corps, and receive a new type of artificial stigmata.
Li Mo's death was a great shock to her. The hypocrisy and selfishness revealed by the flowers made the selfless sunshine dazzling, and responsibility and commitment sounded extremely ironic.
Saori Tsuruyu didn't want to morally blackmail others, and Li Mo didn't do that either. After all, no one in this world has an obligation to do anything, and no one has to die for others.
Only the actions initiated by the master are meaningful.
But when an unarmed weakling like her is in danger of death, only someone like Li Mo will come to save her.
Those who claim to be righteous will probably come up with all kinds of excuses to shirk responsibility.
Something like it's too risky, inappropriate, and I should reserve my strength.
In this strange incident, Saori Tsuruyu saw very clearly from the perspective of an observer who was dragging their feet and doing nothing, and who was betting his life, testing and trying again and again, and finally turning the deadlock around.
But this is how the world is. Good people will be pointed at with guns and should die first.
Where there are more than two people, there can be no true justice.
Saori Tsuruyu returned to the corner with a gloomy face and said nothing.
"If my brother were still alive...what would he do?"
Saori Tsuruyu looked at the empty venue and hugged herself tightly. Now the only person she could rely on was herself.
Shigure Kirara's chest rose and fell slightly, and faint breathing sounds were heard.
But no one noticed, and no one will notice.
Everyone only has themselves in their eyes and is thinking about how to do the most selfish thing.
That night, except for Saori Tsuruyu, no one else fell asleep. They waited, looking up at the clock from time to time.
When the clear and melodious bells of the clock ring, it will be the moment for them to be reborn.
The early morning sun of midsummer soon rose from the distant horizon, and when the minutes and seconds overlapped, the hour hand pointed to "7".
Students rushed out, and in order to prevent unnecessary situations, some of them took backpacks full of food and walked towards the wall of the college.
Saori Tsuruyu fell asleep leaning against the wall last night without realizing it. The incense burning on the grave prevented her from catching a cold.
When my eyes noticed the bright light, I opened my sleepy eyeballs with difficulty, but the hazy sleepiness had not yet dissipated.
She looked around, but no one was left.
Perhaps some of the people in the original crowd felt guilty and wanted to help bury Li Mo before leaving.
But when one person left without looking back, they quickly followed him out of guilt, constantly comforting themselves in their hearts that since everyone else had left, it didn't matter if they left too.
Such a result did not surprise Saori Tsuruyu. It is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm, and greed and desire are the internal driving forces of human beings.
It would be better to say that it is wrong for me to stay here.
Outside, the students who walked out of the auditorium searched for the school gate according to their memory.
"How long have we been walking? Why haven't we left yet..."
"Yeah, we've been walking for half an hour. I don't remember the auditorium being that far from the school gate."
"But there's absolutely nothing wrong with this road, and there's nothing wrong with the surrounding environment and construction."
"Could it be that our cognition and memory are wrong?"
"..."
A terrible thought came to mind, and everyone's pace quickened and their breathing became heavier.
How could they get lost in broad daylight?
Weren’t all the ghosts in the academy eliminated by the terror that Li Mo finally summoned?
This is absolutely impossible. The school gate is just ahead. As long as they speed up their pace, they will definitely be able to get out of the college!
"Don't be suspicious. Didn't you go out twice before? The first time, he went with the Valkyrie Squad leader Shigure Kirara to collect supplies, and the second time, he went out alone to look for medicine. Wasn't everything fine?"
Someone explained that they wanted to soothe everyone's uneasy hearts.
After experiencing all kinds of terror, people panic at the slightest sign of trouble or if they feel something is wrong.
When the weirdness came, they did not confront it directly, nor did they think about how to deal with it. They just huddled together for warmth, let fear and panic occupy their minds, and then blindly escape.
There is no growth at all.
"But that's my senior..."
Someone suddenly said this, and everyone came back to their senses in an instant.
Yes, just because Li Mo was able to see through the situation and come up with a solution quickly doesn’t mean they can.
Their contribution to this incident is almost zero. They are just a group of people who know nothing, don't know the rules, and their thinking is not fast enough.
Once an emergency occurs, you can only wait to die on the spot.
"No, no, I'm just walking out of the school. How could something like that happen by chance? Let's go, hurry up..."
The person who was speaking had begun to tremble, and the footsteps were getting faster and more chaotic.
The team of six, and out of nowhere, there was the sound of one more person's footsteps...
Two hours later, it was nine o'clock in the morning. The scorching sun was torturing the world in full swing.
The seven people were sweating profusely, their vests were completely wet, revealing their fair and tender skin underneath.
His hair was also wet with sweat and stuck to his forehead, not fluffy at all.
Coupled with the mental torture and harsh conditions of the past few days, they looked like disheveled beggars.
He was severely lacking in energy and looked listless, as if he had taken drugs and was on the verge of death.
"Why haven't we reached the school gate yet? From what I remember, the school gate is right in front of us. There's no way I could be wrong!"
"No... Do you still remember when our seniors took us out of the broadcasting room?"
"Of course I remember. We mistook a cleaner for the dean of studies and were completely unaware. We didn't even realize there was something wrong with our memory..."
"Are you saying that our cognition and memory are disordered, and there are ghosts with human heads among us?"
"But didn't the senior summon the terrifying female ghost to kill all the headless ghosts?"
The group stopped and started arguing. It seemed pointless for them to continue moving forward until the argument was over. At this moment, their exchange was seen by the ghost.
A gray-black-skinned child sat on the cabinet in the infirmary, shaking his thin and shriveled legs and staring at them intently.
They were sweating profusely, but frost gradually formed on the soles of their feet.
There was no sun above his head, but a rickety old chandelier that flickered from time to time and became increasingly dim.
Chapter 45 The group is destroyed
No one realized that a ghost that could move at any time had set its sights on them as they left the auditorium in a group.
It did not go far. When all the weird things rushed to the auditorium on the day of mourning, it had already escaped the control of the notebook. After swallowing the grave incense on the second day, it was no longer affected by Li Mo's broadcast of the death.
In addition, the auditorium has the ability to block ghost perception, which prevents it from entering the auditorium.
So he kept wandering around and survived by chance.
Students who were not protected by incense were targeted by ghosts the moment they left the auditorium.
The rules of cognitive ghosts seem to be different from those of human-headed ghosts. They have complete bodies and do not need to obtain better body parts from other places.
However, the funeral has not yet ended, and Saint Freya's time and space are still stuck at another time node, which can only be entered but not exited.
No matter from which point of view, from the very beginning, these treacherous people had no chance of survival.
Cognitive ghosts follow them along the way, distorting perception and interfering with memory.
Finally, it came to the room that was most familiar and intimate to it, as warm as a human's "home" - the infirmary influenced by Guiqi.
Although this place is a hopeless hell for the living.
They will die as soon as they enter the door. Even if they survive, there will be more monsters peeping at them in the dark corners.
Although cognitive ghosts were not born here, they share the same origin as all the weird things and cognitive ghosts here...
At this time, a girl raised her hand and loudly suggested: "Tell us how you survived the second day of vigil."
"Senior said there were nine people who survived. Since you're dead, and Shigure Kirara, Saori, and Tsuruyuu are still in the auditorium, there should only be six of us here. I remember only two of them were under the table, and the rest should be in the black coffin."
Everyone nodded and told how they survived one by one.
"I suggested it first. I was under the table with my bestie at the time, so you definitely weren't under the table."
"I was in the black coffin."
"Me too."
"I am also here."
"I also spoke to you in there."
"I... am also in the black coffin."
Everyone suddenly realized what was happening. The people in the four black coffins and the two tables had already determined where the last voice came from.
But after seeing the other person's appearance, he didn't feel strange. It was as if he had dealt with her in the auditorium before and had the impression that they had had many exchanges.
A seventh person suddenly appeared in a team of six? How could this be possible?
"One more person? There's something fishy going on among us... I remember there were only nine minus three, or six people, when we left? Why didn't you notice?"
"That's not important. What's important is to find the seventh person first! It's daytime now. Once we find the head ghost, we can kill him and survive!"
"If your neck is exposed, or if there's a crack on your neck... don't blame everyone for being cruel."
In this case, no one is particularly exceptional.
Everyone firmly believed that they were not human-headed ghosts, and they raised their necks confidently and cooperated with each other.
"Found her! Quick, kill her!"
"Wait, I'm not..."
The girl who was closest to her suddenly realized that there was an obvious crack on the neck of her classmate. The glaring sunlight made the blood inside shine clearly.
Before the other party could react, a girl took out her pocket knife and stabbed him hard.
In an instant, the head fell to the ground like a lifeless doll, lying motionless on the ground and continuing to rot and stink.
However, this was just what they saw. In fact, there were still only six people in their group, and the seventh person was compiled by the cognitive ghost.
The girl who was killed was a normal person, there was no crack on her neck, and the fallen head was not rotten.
Everything is messed up.
Even though Li Mo knew that Aikeli was a human-headed ghost, he did not kill him all, but chose a better way to deal with it.
Killing is not the only means of dealing with it.
In panic, they will only kill, kill, and kill anything that is unfavorable to them.
