After being stunned, those who understood the meaning of Zhao Yingnanâs words either shivered or frowned.
Those who didnât understand what Zhao Yingnan meant were about to ask a few questions when Song Qingyouâs voice came from downstairs, âWhat are you all doing in the stairwell? Did you find something?â
Their thoughts were interrupted and they looked at the large area of fluorescent light under their feet.
He didnât know what the production team had prepared, but after the fluorescent light appeared, it didnât disappear.
If Song Qingyou saw it now, wouldnât she know that she was excluded?
Would she be angry?
Would she make a move?
At this moment, the seven people who had different thoughts thought of the same thing because they had a guilty conscience.
If they wanted to hide it, they might as well hide it to the end. They absolutely couldnât let Song Qingyou see these fluorescent lights! At least not tonight!
Tang Zinian, who reacted the fastest, ran downstairs. âSister Qingyou, youâre finally here. We couldnât find the key and were just waiting for you to come and save us.â
Jiang Xuyan followed up,
âWe didnât want to go into those classrooms. We happened to bump into each other in the stairwell. We heard from Lil Tang that you would help, so we might as well stay here and chat.â
âDid you find anything tonight?â Gu Xingchen asked.
Song Qingyou shook her head. â1 only went to the activity room.â
âWe havenât finished looking through the information in the activity room. Do you want to go and take a look now?â
âItâs almost break time. Why donât we go back to the dormitory directly?â
âSister Qingyou, what do you think? Weâll go wherever you go. Sister Yingnan, donât you think so?â
âThatâs right.â
The crowd chatted and dragged Song Qingyou downstairs.
Song Qingyou pretended not to notice anything wrong and followed them downstairs.
When she reached downstairs, she frowned and said in confusion, âI keep feeling that youâre hiding something from meâ¦â
âNo, no.â Tang Zinian laughed dryly. âWhat can we hide from you? I still want to hug your thigh and let you take me to win!â
âReally? Why do I suspect that you might think that Iâm the murderer and are deliberately wary of me?â
âThatâs not true. Why would anyone suspect you, Sister Qingyou?â
Tang Zinian waved his hand. He had never suspected anything.
As for the others-
Shu Ling nodded. âQingyou, donât forget, after the murder last time, we discussed that there were at least two murderers.â
âIf we really suspect you as the murderer, itâs useless to suspect you alone!â
âThatâs true,â Song Qingyou seemed convinced.
In fact, she was just testing their reactions.
From the conversation just now, she could tell that Tang Zinian and Shu Ling had no suspicions about her.
The others were still wavering.
Jiang Xuyan clapped his hands. âAlright, thank goodness Qingyou let us out. Itâs getting late now. Those who should go back to the dormitory can go back. Those who want to work overtime in the activity room can do so.â
âDismissed!â
As soon as he finished speaking, the group of people looked at each other.
And then-
All of them set off for the activity room.
Jiang Xuyan and the other seven went to the activity room to check on the first victim, Huang Jiao.
Song Qingyou was with them.
As the eight of them were already suspicious of each other, they didnât gather together to discuss when they found some information like before. Therefore, the activity room was very quiet. According to the directorâs request, the cameraman even specially took a close-up shot of the few of them.
On the fourth day, there were still classes in the morning.
Song Qingyou got full marks again and got the corresponding points.
After the teacher announced the results, they gathered together to discuss whether they should skip class to investigate the case.
If it was when they had just arrived, they would not have needed to discuss it at all. They would basically run away if they could.
The reason why she was so hesitant today was because she was frightened by Jiang Xuyanâs maid costume yesterday.
Tang Zinian, who had already worn the Lolita princess dress, kept urging them to skip class.
âIsnât it just cross-dressing? What was there to be afraid of? Are you guys still men when youâre so timid?â
âItâs precisely because Iâm a man that I donât want to cross-dress.â
âYouâre so enthusiastic, Lil Tang. Donât tell me you want to wear it a second time?â Gu Xingchen smiled.
Shu Ling burst out laughing. âThere are only zero or countless times of cross-dressing?â
âHeh.â Tang Zinian sneered. âDonât tease me if youâre so capable. Try wearing a female outfit too!â
Gu Xingchen waved his hand. âProvoking wonât work. I will never abandon my integrity.â
âDoes that mean Brother Gu isnât going to skip class?â
Tang Zinian looked disappointed. âWhat about Old Xu and Brother Yu?â
âYou can lose the game, but you canât wear female clothes.â
âSame here.â
Tang Zinian looked at Jiang Xuyan.
The latter shook his head. âNo, I canât. Yesterday, it was a maidâs outfit. Today, it might be something else. Didnât you see those clothes?â
Zhao Yingnan interrupted,â! saw it. I saw a bikini.â
Tang Zinian immediately shut his mouth. He turned around and picked up his pen. He sat upright with his chest puffed out, looking as if he was saying: Iâm listening to a lecture carefully, so please donât disturb me.
In the end, not to mention Gu Xingchen and the others, even Song Qingyou and the other two girls didnât skip class.
The strange thing was that none of them took action, and the program team was not in a hurry. They did not have any intention of urging them.
In the blink of an eye, it was already noon.
Usually, at this time, there would always be extras who rushed to the cafeteria before them and played the role of classmates.
But today, when the eight of them came out of the teaching building, it was empty outside. No one passed by on the way. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Since today was the penultimate day of the showâs recording, the production team must have made other arrangements. When the group reached the entrance of the cafeteria, they were not in a hurry to enter. Instead, they looked around cautiously.
Jiang Xuyan sneakily pulled at the thick curtain of the cafeteria. He turned around and asked, âWhat do you think Director Wei has arranged for us?â
âYouâll know once you enter.â
Song Qingyou wasnât worried at all. She lifted the curtain and walked in.
âHey, Qingyou-â
Jiang Xuyan wanted Song Qingyou to wait, but he didnât have time to stop her, so he had to follow her.
âWhatâs going on?â
Jiang Xuyan looked at the empty cafeteria with a puzzled expression.
The tables and chairs in the cafeteria were all gone.
There were only four tables left in the middle, and eight stools on the right.
Song Qingyou sat in the innermost seat, followed by Jiang Xuyan.
The few people who came in later saw the situation and also sat down with the two of them.
âWhat are we doing here?â Tang Zinian waved at the staff. âSomeone come and explain!â
After a while, a familiar figure appeared in front of them.
âGood afternoon, everyone.â
This was the first time Wei Zhengrong had showed his face in the past four days.
The moment they saw him, they knew that they would not be able to enjoy the meal.
Each and every one of them looked as disgusted as they could be, even Song Qingyou..
