This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]
Chapter 25: Dawn Training School (10)The things He Yu could notice, the others naturally noticed as well.
The class monitor’s behavior was extremely abnormal.
Zhen Xing and Eugene exchanged a glance, both seeing suspicion toward the class monitor in the other’s eyes.
Wanrenzhan’s gaze sharpened. He reached out. Much taller than the class monitor, he restrained him effortlessly.
He grabbed the class monitor by the collar and lifted him up, urgently demanding, “Do you know something?! Is the murderer connected to you?! Did you do it?!”
His expression was vicious, his questioning relentless, striking first and seizing the initiative.
Wanrenzhan had been worrying about not finding a breakthrough in this round. He absolutely did not want to search for the murderer based on the “left-handed” clue. If they really found the culprit through that clue, wouldn’t it make it seem like they relied on He Yu to solve the case?
For him, relying on anyone was acceptable.
Except He Yu.
Just as Wanrenzhan was troubled over lacking a breakthrough, someone practically delivered themselves to him. Even the heavens seemed to be helping him.
The class monitor’s throat was being crushed by the agitated Wanrenzhan. Opening his mouth with difficulty, he rasped, “L-Let go of me...”
He struggled violently.
How could Wanrenzhan possibly let him go?
“Are you talking or not? If you don’t, I’ll kill you!” Wanrenzhan tightened his grip, threatening him.
The class monitor’s eyes reddened as he glared at Wanrenzhan with hatred.
Wanrenzhan snorted coldly. “You—”
“What are you doing over there?!”
The grade dean noticed the commotion and furiously shouted, “Bullying a classmate in broad daylight? Do you even have any respect for teachers?!”
Across from them, the grade dean they had wanted to test strode over.
He moved quickly, bringing a gust of wind with him. His face was full of shock and fury, along with unconcealable worry and urgency. His steps were anxious, and in the blink of an eye he had already reached them.
Zhen Xing, Eugene, and the others all stiffened.
—Too fast. The grade dean’s speed was terrifyingly fast.
An expert.
“Let him go! What’s your name? Bullying another student right in front of a teacher? You’ve really got nerve! Our school has no place for students like you!” the grade dean roared.
As he shouted, he reached out to grab Wanrenzhan and force him to release the class monitor.
How could Wanrenzhan let go of a “murderer” who had practically fallen into his hands?
An axe appeared in his grip as he swung it toward the grade dean.
Bang!
The grade dean blocked it directly with one hand, forcing Wanrenzhan and his axe back two steps.
Wanrenzhan froze in shock, staring at the dean in disbelief.
He blocked Wanrenzhan’s strike barehanded?!
No, not barehanded.
Something seemed to be covering the dean’s hand. After blocking the attack, the layer of equipment vanished as though it had never existed.
But it still shocked everyone present.
—An S-rank expert!
Only an S-rank expert could so casually force back Wanrenzhan.
Eugene and Zhen Xing exchanged another glance, both grim-faced.
Even He Yu frowned slightly as he looked at the overly agitated grade dean.
“Student, are you alright?” the grade dean asked as he caught the class monitor.
The class monitor coughed violently after having his throat squeezed.
The dean glared viciously at Wanrenzhan and ground out through clenched teeth, “Our school does not keep students who openly bully others. Expulsion! He will be expelled!”
Expulsion!
If Wanrenzhan were expelled, that meant elimination. His expression changed instantly. His eyes locked onto the grade dean, while the dean glared back with equal anger and vigilance.
Wanrenzhan gritted his teeth. “Why are you all still standing there? Isn’t it obvious enough already?!”
—They couldn’t kill during the day, but they could test him.
Before the grade dean expelled him, they had to determine whether he was the murderer.
And then kill him.
The dean looked to be around forty. Federation citizens lived longer due to combat power, meaning the dean was at least sixty years old.
Though he often stared at others ominously, he himself was actually quite sturdy.
He looked strong.
His build matched the profile, and he was S-rank...
Eugene and Zhen Xing moved simultaneously, reaching for their equipment to test him.
At that moment, a pair of hands stopped them.
Long, elegant fingers lightly gripped their wrists, halting their motions before they could take out their weapons.
The two froze and turned back.
The owner of those fingers stepped forward from behind them, glancing at them slightly and signaling with his eyes not to act rashly.
It was He Yu.
Walking to the very front and completely ignoring Wanrenzhan’s furious glare, He Yu smiled gently at the grade dean.
“Hello, Dean.”
Seeing He Yu, the dean’s expression eased slightly, though his voice remained cold. “Teacher He, were you really just going to stand there and watch them bully another student?”
He Yu didn’t get angry. Shaking his head, he said, “Sorry. I didn’t react in time.”
Then he looked meaningfully at the dean.
“Besides, I think you may be a little too agitated. This student bumped into classmate Wanrenzhan. Classmate Wanrenzhan has a bad temper and unreasonable behavior, so friction happening is perfectly normal...”
Wanrenzhan: “???”
His entire face turned red. Even the air he exhaled seemed to be smoking.
Bullet comments flooded past—
“Hahaha! It’s true though, Wanrenzhan really is unreasonable.”
“2333 definitely slipped a personal grudge into that sentence, hahaha.”
He Yu continued ignoring Wanrenzhan.
“But I think classmate Wanrenzhan was simply angry and confused. It hasn’t reached the point where expulsion is necessary. Deduct two credits from him. That way, classmate Wanrenzhan will only have one credit left, and he’ll definitely behave more carefully in the future.”
Wanrenzhan froze.
This was the first time He Yu deducted his credits and he wasn’t angry.
Instead... he was bewildered.
Why?
Shouldn’t He Yu be trying to get him expelled? That way he could eliminate him naturally and without effort.
Wanrenzhan was completely confused.
The grade dean hesitated. “But...”
He Yu interrupted him with a slight smile.
“Dean, why don’t you take this student to the infirmary first? Leave Wanrenzhan to me. I’ll give him a proper lecture.”
The grade dean looked at Wanrenzhan, then at the pale-faced class monitor, before coldly replying, “Then I’ll leave him to Teacher He. Our school does not tolerate students bullying others!”
After saying that, he helped the class monitor away.
The moment they were gone, Wanrenzhan exploded in anger.
“He Yu, what exactly are you trying to do?! Why didn’t you test him? He could very well be the murderer!”
At that instant, Wanrenzhan found an excuse for He Yu’s earlier behavior.
—Maybe He Yu knew he couldn’t necessarily get him expelled, so he pretended to defend him in order to gain favor with the audience.
Then later, he’d find another chance to eliminate him.
Too sinister!
He Yu glanced at him and smiled faintly.
“Idiot.”
Wanrenzhan: “???”
He gripped his axe and lunged forward, only for Annie and Tang Ke to hurriedly stop him.
Gedai pursed his lips. “Teacher He, you’d better give us an explanation.”
He Yu raised a hand and pushed up his glasses, his voice calm.
“He’s not the murderer.”
Everyone: “?”
Bullet comments: “??”
“How do you know?” Zhen Xing asked, not suspicious but genuinely puzzled. “Even though he used his right hand just now, that could’ve been a disguise.”
He Yu sounded absolutely certain.
“It wasn’t a disguise. He genuinely isn’t the murderer. There’s no need to test him in broad daylight.”
An S-rank expert was someone best avoided if possible.
Especially during daytime, when it was easy to attract others.
Their goal was to find the murderer.
Not challenge an S-rank powerhouse.
Eugene nodded. “Whether he’s the murderer is still uncertain, but testing him during the day really isn’t a good idea. We can deal with it tonight.”
Qiong lowered the brim of her hat and tilted her head. “Then what about the class monitor?”
He Yu rubbed his chin.
“That person has secrets. Maybe we should follow him.”
“Agreed,” Cheng Zhao immediately supported.
Eugene and the others shared the same opinion.
He Yu nodded, then turned toward Wanrenzhan.
“You only have one credit left now. If there’s a next time, you’ll really become the first contestant eliminated for violating school rules.”
After saying that, he ignored Wanrenzhan’s furious glare and leisurely walked away.
Eugene shouted after him, “Hey—that’s not the direction of the infirmary!”
He Yu replied casually, “Teacher cafeteria. Lunch.”
Everyone: “............”
—Was this guy really not anxious at all?!
—
He Yu truly wasn’t anxious.
Even knowing Wanrenzhan and the others had already gone to follow the class monitor, he still wasn’t anxious.
At that moment, he could see the bullet comments floating before him—
“Wanrenzhan and the others are tailing the class monitor and the dean, but He Yu still isn’t panicking!!”
“Yeah, if they find the murderer first, He Yu definitely gets eliminated because he doesn’t have enough votes.”
“I’m speechless. Does this guy think becoming an NPC teacher means he can relax? Tons of contestants have already advanced in other instances!”
“...Hey, doesn’t He Yu’s relaxed attitude right now feel kind of familiar?”
“Holy shit, it’s exactly like when he was riding that giant fish...”
...
He Yu silently sneered and shook his head.
Instead of going after the nine contestants, he headed in another direction.
On the way, he encountered a janitor.
“Hello, Teacher He,” the janitor greeted warmly.
He Yu smiled and nodded.
“This place is already clean. You should rest early.”
The janitor explained, “The principal told us to wipe everything down several more times.”
Perhaps because He Yu’s attitude was gentle, she added:
“It’s already spotless, but the principal still insists we clean it again and again. As if scrubbing harder will stop people from finding out what happened at this school!”
He Yu smiled at her, adopting the posture of a patient listener.
He was exceptionally skilled at guiding people’s emotions.
Greatly encouraged, the janitor lowered her voice.
“Teacher He is so outstanding. If possible, you should transfer to another school!”
She glanced around before whispering even more quietly:
“Someone died here last night. Another victim of that serial killer! The principal suppressed the news, but the dead student’s family has some influence and they’re causing trouble. The principal’s practically losing his mind over it.”
He Yu deliberately acted startled, his face full of shock.
“Really? I only transferred to this school recently. I’d vaguely heard about the serial murder case, but the killer still hasn’t been caught? That’s terrifying.”
The janitor nodded repeatedly.
“Exactly! The murderer’s never been caught. Sooner or later this will become a huge scandal. Who would still dare study here after that? This school’s finished.”
As if remembering something, she sighed.
“I’d actually met the student who died last night before. One time while I was sweeping, some dust accidentally got onto him, and he immediately tried to hit me. Fierce little bastard.”
Hearing that, He Yu raised his brows slightly, thoughtful.
At that moment, the janitor suddenly handed him something.
“Teacher He, you’re such a good person. You don’t even look down on us cleaners. Let me give you a present.”
He Yu lowered his head to look at it and froze briefly.
The bullet comments instantly exploded—
“HAHAHAHA!!!”
“I’m fucking dying, the NPCs in this instance are incredible!!”
“Is that equipment?!”
“Of course it is! Even if it’s just a broom, it’s still equipment! Hahahaha!!”
...
That’s right.
The very first piece of equipment He Yu obtained in this instance was—
A broom gifted to him by an NPC janitor.
