When Li Yilun brought the three girls upstairs down, Shen Yunzhe was still sitting in the same place.
His breathing was still steady, and he looked like he was really asleep. But when Li Yilun and the others came down, Shen Yunzhe opened his eyes and looked at them in the darkness.
"Shen Yunzhe!" Yuan Jing didn't see his eyes, so she rushed towards him and grabbed his arm, "Quickly leave! Lu Shun has turned into a monster!"
Shen Yunzhe lowered his head slowly. He looked at Yuan Jing without saying a word.
He was unusually quiet, and Yuan Jing subconsciously let go of his hand.
[I hope you won't mess around with the code name. 】
[The erosion of the codename sleep disordered person is too serious and you are too exhausted. Not many people can suppress the sleep disordered person. You can only try to fight fire with fire. 】
[The code name hopes that the mood is extreme, but now you are almost used to it, and it can help you sleep a little longer. 】
"Shen, Shen Yunzhe?" Yuan Jing said a little scared.
Shen Yunzhe didn't answer. He was still sitting there. He was looking at everyone around him but didn't seem to be looking at anyone. After a while, there was a strange sparrow sound. They looked at the steps, Lu The sparrow crawled forward bit by bit with its wings.
His legs have degenerated and his fat body can only crawl on the ground.
Li Yilun looked at Lu Shun Sparrow nervously, and then looked at Shen Yunzhe who said nothing.
Shen Yunzhe is very strange now, or he is not sure whether to call him Shen Yunzhe.
"Turn on the lights." Just when everyone was nervous, Shen Yunzhe suddenly spoke.
"What?"
"It's too dark." Shen Yunzhe's voice was very soft. It could even be said to be deadly dull. It seemed that he only said these three words after struggling for a long time. No matter what day, he was not like Shen Yunzhe.
Bei Chuanchuan screamed, "Where is the light here?!"
So Shen Yunzhe stopped talking. Li Yilun reached out and tried to pull him up. He also got up. The five people ran out of the teaching building. While escaping, Shen Yunzhe kept his head lowered. He seemed to be watching. He followed the running footsteps of the person in front of him and didn't look around at all.
It was only when they left the teaching building that they discovered that there was a light on somewhere.
A stage-like place appeared in front of the shabby red carpet. There were several seats under the stage. Two lights lit up on the stage, and a dusty speaker played a song. It was a cheerful song. It's exactly the same as what the Lushun sparrow sings.
"Is this also the school song?" Lan Sicheng frowned, "The school song of No. 2 Middle School?"
Shen Yunzhe sat on the chair. He stretched out his hand, thinking he was fishing for the light that had escaped. Unfortunately, he couldn't catch anything and could only bathe in the light.
Behind him was Lu Shun's cry, and Li Yilun took the lead on the stage. He stepped on the stage and looked around, and finally nodded to them, saying it was okay.
Lu Shun crawled over, but he seemed to be afraid of the light here. As soon as he came into contact with the light, he ran away in fear and kept rolling to avoid. The players immediately realized this and prepared to stay here before dawn. .
Li Yilun sighed, "Let's determine the time, allocate time to be on duty, and let others rest."
No one had any objections. Bei Chuanchuan wanted to be on the first shift. She said she couldn't sleep and wanted to be quiet. Li Yilun generally divided the time and went to find Shen Yunzhe, but found that Shen Yunzhe had fallen asleep leaning on the chair. He closed his eyes and immersed himself in the light. The light made his hair and eyelashes turn white.
"Let's not arrange shifts for Shen Yunzhe." Li Yilun whispered to the others: "He looks very tired."
"Okay, actually I also think..." Yuan Jing sighed, "Although I don't want to say it, Shen Yunzhe has a feeling that he is mentally disturbed. It would be good to sleep more."
Bei Chuanchuan also nodded. Lan Sicheng didn't understand anything, but seeing that everyone else said so, she didn't have any objections. If she had any opinions, she swallowed them in her stomach.
In this way, Shen Yunzhe had a comfortable sleep. Although he slept on a chair, it was already good to be able to fall asleep wherever he could at this stage.
So when he opened his eyes, he rarely felt mentally relaxed.
The sky was white, with no clouds and no sun. He looked towards the stage in front of him. Others had already woken up and were looking around to see if there was anything to investigate.
"System?" Shen Yunzhe called the system in a low voice, "Who am I synchronizing with?"
[No synchronization. 】
Shen Yunzhe blinked.
[Last night, you and the code name Hope were synchronized for half an hour. Fighting fire with fire. After half an hour, the synchronization was desynchronized and no other peers were synchronized. 】
Shen Yunzhe sat up, his head lowered and did not say a word.
[There may be some residual influence of the code name, but it is you who make the decision and judgment, and it cannot be synchronized in the future. You need to rely on yourself. 】
Shen Yunzhe raised his hand and looked at the palm of his hand, then pressed his temple. Finally he stood up and walked around the chair before making a serious judgment:
He is normal.
There is no moment more normal than now.
"Are you awake?" Li Yilun came over, and he handed him a small loaf of bread with a packaging bag, "Eat something, it's been a long time since I've eaten anything."
Shen Yunzhe took the bread and said, "Thank you."
"Thank me?" Li Yilun was a little surprised. He looked at Shen Yunzhe up and down, and only answered after a few seconds: "You're welcome."
Shen Yunzhe opened the package and ate while watching the other three people turning over the stage, "Did you find anything?"
"There are only sparrows, and all of them are sparrow corpses." Li Yilun also opened a piece of bread. He ate slowly and showed no sign of hunger. "There are sparrows on the stage, and there are also sparrows on the chairs. It's like a bunch of dead sparrows watching another bunch of dead sparrows put on a show."
Shen Yunzhe thought about this situation for a moment, and nodded to express that it was indeed quite strange.
"I thought you would clap your hands and say you wanted to see the sparrow show."
"Why should I watch the sparrow performance?" Shen Yunzhe was surprised.
Li Yilun, who tried to treat Shen Yunzhe as a child as much as possible, touched his chin and said against his will: "I don't know, just think about it."
Shen Yunzhe raised his eyebrows slightly, and he seemed to understand why.
To be honest, Shen Yunzhe felt that this was none of his business. The person with the code name sleep disorder was very domineering after the synchronization rate increased. Unlike the last game, he could not detect anything wrong at all during synchronization. His whole thinking was in line with sleep. handicap person.
His willfulness, weirdness and bad taste are completely copied, making people unable to resist.
It is better to avoid synchronizing with people with sleep disorders in the future.
Before he could finish thinking, Lan Sicheng, who was not far away, suddenly raised his voice, "Everyone, come and have a look!"
Shen Yunzhe and Li Yilun looked at each other and hurried up. Bei Chuanchuan and Yuan Jing were faster than them.
There was a box in front of Lan Sicheng. As soon as she opened the box, she saw a bunch of signs in the alley. Each sign had a person's photo and name on it. Under the signs, there were also a pile of sparrow corpses. , Lan Sicheng took out a brand from it.
The photo on the sign is of a smiling person. Her smile looks sunny and she is wearing black-rimmed glasses.
It's just that it looks particularly weird when it appears in a place like this.
"Are these Teacher Wang and student Yin Yin?" Lan Sicheng asked.
Teacher Wang's name is Wang Lian.
"This seems to be a list of people coming to participate in the competition." Yuan Jing said: "From No. 1 Middle School to No. 13 Middle School, there is a brand."
And not only these, every dead sparrow body has a small sign with the name written on it, which happens to be this group of people.
"But there is no sparrow named Teacher Wang."
"Of course not, Teacher Wang No. 1 Middle School." Shen Yunzhe concluded.
Everyone didn't quite understand what Shen Yunzhe said, but Shen Yunzhe didn't seem to want to explain.
The world was dead silent, and they lamented in their hearts how difficult it was to complete this so-called indefinite mission. There were no NPC reminders, no redundant prompts, and even only seven people, so they could only aimlessly look for things that might be useful.
Don't know when to leave, or they really can't leave for the rest of their lives.
"By the way." Bei Chuanchuan suddenly said, "Where's Lu Shun? Is he still alive?"
The people present were stunned for a moment.
In the first half of the night, Lu Shun was still wandering around the stage, but he was afraid of the lights and did not dare to approach. In the second half of the night, his voice disappeared. He no longer cried or crawled, and his whole person lost all movement. , until now they realized that Lu Shun seemed to have disappeared for too long.
"How about we go look for it?" Bei Chuanchuan suggested.
Everyone was silent. Lan Sicheng and Yuan Jing obviously didn't want to go. Shen Yunzhe and Li Yilun remained silent without expressing their opinions.
"Are you all cowards? How can you let Lu Shun disappear at this time!" Bei Chuanchuan got angry, "Yuan Jing! You're not going either?!"
"I don't want to go, I'm sorry Chuanchuan."
Bei Chuanchuan snorted coldly and turned around to leave. He saw that he was going to find Lu Shun.
Shen Yunzhe watched her leave, and then spoke after a moment, "Why does she care so much about Lu Shun?"
Indeed, this is really strange. Bei Chuanchuan has always hated Lu Shun, not to mention that now Lu Shun has turned into a weird sparrow. It scared many people last night. Logically speaking, she doesn't You should care about Lu Shun, let alone look for Lu Shun now.
Lan Sicheng turned around and walked away. He didn't want to get involved. Yuan Jing was silent for a while. She probably noticed something was wrong with Bei Chuanchuan, but she didn't have the courage to catch up.
"Go and have a look." Shen Yunzhe said, "Maybe it has something to do with Lu Shun turning into a sparrow."
"Okay." Li Yilun nodded, "Let's go together."
The two of them looked for someone in the direction Bei Chuanchuan left, but there was no sign of anyone in front of them. Finally, they came to the teaching building. After taking two steps, Shen Yunzhe stopped and looked to the side. Li Yilun did not notice his movements and entered the teaching building alone.
Shen Yunzhe tilted his head. He walked to the flower bed, squatted down, and carefully lifted out a sparrow corpse from the flower bed.
There was a sign hanging on the sparrow's body, which read a familiar name: Lu Shun.
Looking at the name, Shen Yunzhe had some guesses in his mind. He stuffed the sparrow body into his pocket, then turned around and entered the teaching building. Li Yilun was looking up, trying to find Bei Chuanchuan. .
"Didn't you see?"
"No." Li Yilun said, "What were you doing just now? When I turned around, I found that you didn't follow me."
Shen Yunzhe thought for a while, "I saw something strange, so I looked at it for a while."
Li Yilun nodded, "You are much more normal now than before."
"It's not that abnormal, right?"
"It's not bad." Li Yilun looked at it and just said casually.
"Speaking of which, what did you mean when you said Teacher Wang No. 1 Middle School?"
Shen Yunzhe looked at him, "Any game has tasks. Since there are tasks, there are ways to complete them. There is a medium in the game field, and most tasks will be completed around the medium. Teacher Wang's name appears in that It's in the box, but the sparrow representing Teacher Wang is not there."
"Perhaps the condition for the opening of this school is to bring back the sparrow that represents Teacher Wang."
Li Yilun was a little surprised, "Bring that strange bird from No. 1 Middle School to No. 2 Middle School?"
"The school song contest will only end when all the participants are complete." Shen Yunzhe murmured, "But Teacher Wang did not come to participate in the contest, at least she is not here now."
Li Yilun suddenly realized, "Wait a minute, the reason why Teacher Wang is not here is that we came to No. 2 Middle School to participate in the competition instead of Teacher Wang?"
"It's something about the game mechanism." Shen Yunzhe said nonchalantly, "Because we have to come to No. 2 Middle School to participate in the competition on behalf of Teacher Wang, the door of No. 1 Middle School is open, but No. 2 Middle School needs Teacher Wang to participate in the competition, so we are in There is no way to leave here, and I have to replace Teacher Wang and become a sparrow."
Li Yilun clicked his tongue.
"Oh, yes, I also suspect that Bei Chuanchuan has begun to transform into a sparrow." Shen Yunzhe said.
"What?"
"Remember what I said before? I deceived the news from the audience, and the audience thought I was controlled by a sparrow." Shen Yunzhe analyzed, "My behavior pattern at the time was easy to judge, that is, it was different from usual Mental state, behavior and actions that are different from before."
He said: "Don't you think it fits well with the current Bei Chuanchuan?"
Li Yilun didn't nod or shake his head. He looked at Shen Yunzhe with complicated eyes. He waited until Shen Yunzhe looked over feeling strange before he spoke.
"You really know that you were abnormal before."
...
Bei Chuanchuan kept vomiting in the sink.
Before she had time to enter the teaching building, she was overcome by a sudden feeling of dizziness and vomiting, and she quickly went to the nearest bathroom.
She first spit out the bread she had eaten during the day, and then spit out the sour water with saliva, but even so she couldn't help but retching. She felt that something was stuck in her throat. Touching her throat.
After retching several times but nothing came out, Bei Chuanchuan looked at herself in the mirror with a red face after vomiting. Finally, she opened her mouth and clasped her throat with her fingers.
But just when she put her fingers to her throat, she touched something like fluff. She immediately took her hand back, her eyes filled with horror.
Isn't it? Right? !
Before she could judge again, she felt an unbearable itching all the way down from her neck, and her entire body began to itch like it was burning.
"It's itchy, it's so itchy."
Bei Chuanchuan began to scratch her skin through her clothes, but this level of scratching could not be relieved at all, so she started to take off her clothes, but as soon as she took off her coat, Bei Chuanchuan saw water coming out of her coat. A fluffy feather.
She froze on the spot and even forgot about the itching on her body.
After being silent like this for a long time, she began to take off her clothes. When she took off her top, she saw something incredible. Her body was covered with down.
The white and brown...are sparrow feathers.
"How could this happen?!" Bei Chuanchuan grabbed the hair on his body, "Is it Lu Shun who is cursing me?! Why, why is it me!"
She began to pluck the hair on her body and plucked out the newly grown down hair.
It was very painful and even bloody, but she kept pulling it out with red eyes, and soon her left shoulder became a bloody mess.
"It works!" Bei Chuanchuan shouted in surprise, and she began to pluck the remaining feathers.
She kept pulling out, not caring that her skin was getting redder and blood was flowing more and more, until she pulled out more than a dozen feathers, only to find that there were red pieces of flesh in the middle of the feathers. , Bei Chuanchuan was stunned for a moment, and a dull pain hit him instantly.
Bei Chuanchuan screamed and fell to the ground, tears sliding down because of the pain. In her blurred vision, she saw her fingers shrinking.
"No!" Bei Chuanchuan screamed miserably, "I don't want to become a sparrow!"
"Let me die, let me die as a human being!" Bei Chuanchuan rolled on the ground, "I don't want to become a beast!"
Bei Chuanchuan fumbled to get up. She smashed the mirror hanging in the bathroom with all her strength, and held the broken lens with her bloody hands.
The fragments reflected Bei Chuanchuan's face. Her face was covered with down, one eye had turned into a bird's pupil, and the other eye still contained Bei Chuanchuan's anger.
Bei Chuanchuan opened her mouth, and she began to be unable to speak. At first, she could only make the chirping sound of a sparrow.
She was trembling, but her hands that were already sticky firmly grasped the fragments and stabbed the eye hard.
