This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]
Chapter 26: Dawn Training School (11)The bullet comments were already laughing themselves insane.
Some viewers even said—
“Putting myself in He Yu’s shoes, I’d probably be furious. A broom is something from hundreds of years ago, and it obviously has zero combat power. Which lunatic designed this thing for the show? Or was it the organizers who made this ridiculous equipment?”
“He Yu should just forget it. Stop collecting trash. If this were Wanrenzhan, he’d probably already be cursing it out as garbage.”
The broom was only half the size of a Blue Star broom, small and rather delicate-looking. It wasn’t exactly ugly.
But no matter how anyone looked at it—
It was still a broom.
For Federation citizens, with technology this advanced, who still used brooms to clean?
The janitor looked embarrassed and started withdrawing her hand.
“Sorry... this is the only thing I have...”
A beautiful hand intercepted the equipment.
He Yu took the broom into his hand, his voice soft.
“Thank you. I like it very much, and I’ll make good use of it. Every piece of equipment has its own value and deserves respect.”
He spoke extremely seriously.
There even seemed to be light in his eyes.
The barrage of mocking comments suddenly stalled for a brief moment before floating past once again—
“He Yu’s attitude... is actually pretty likable.”
“Honestly, I’m finding He Yu more and more charming.”
“??? That still doesn’t change the fact that this is a trash broom!”
“Please. Anyone can say nice things. He’s probably regretting it inside.”
...
The janitor froze before beaming happily.
“Oh my, it’s good enough that Teacher He doesn’t dislike it.”
As though remembering something, she added:
“Teacher He must be busy, right? I won’t bother you anymore. I’ve already finished wiping everything down anyway, so I’m going to go rest.”
He Yu nodded slightly.
“Go rest. The principal and grade dean are both busy today. They won’t come looking for trouble.”
The janitor’s eyes lit up immediately.
“The grade dean is busy too? Then I’ll clock out early and head home today!”
After saying that, she happily left with her cleaning machine.
He Yu looked at the broom in his hand, then glanced at the pitch-black Luck Reversal Bead hanging quietly at his neck.
—It seemed that after the danger lessened, his luck had become bad again.
He Yu shook his head, stored the broom in his backpack, and continued walking.
He politely greeted every teacher and administrator he passed. He also nodded warmly to the students greeting him. Whenever school staff needed help, he casually lent a hand.
Even though they were all NPCs.
Of course, he didn’t receive any more equipment afterward.
Meanwhile—
“I’m fine, Dean.”
The class monitor forced out a smile.
Toward the grade dean, his attitude was remarkably good, completely different from the gloomy hostility he’d shown Wanrenzhan and the others earlier.
The grade dean reached out and patted his head.
“Actually, I know you.”
The class monitor froze.
Outside, Qiong was also slightly startled. The equipment provided by Zhen Xing allowed Wanrenzhan and the others—who didn’t dare approach too closely—to hear the conversation as well.
Qiong’s combat power wasn’t the highest, but she possessed many tricks and excelled at tracking.
Since the grade dean was an S-rank expert, Eugene and the others didn’t dare get too close. So they had sent Qiong to tail him while Zhen Xing supplied equipment that made eavesdropping easier.
Thus, Wanrenzhan and the others heard everything.
The grade dean actually knew the class monitor!
And the class monitor himself clearly had problems. It felt as though an invisible line was beginning to connect all the characters together.
The grade dean’s voice became very gentle, completely lacking the ferocity from before.
“I’ll protect you all. Nobody is allowed to bully students again. Certain pieces of trash don’t deserve to be human.”
That final sentence suddenly turned sharp again.
The class monitor’s eyes reddened.
The two didn’t exchange many words, but the amount of information revealed was enormous.
After the grade dean left, the class monitor remained resting in the infirmary because of his condition and didn’t intend to leave for the time being.
Qiong quietly withdrew.
When she returned to where the others were gathered, they were already deep in heated discussion.
Wanrenzhan declared, “There’s nothing to doubt. The grade dean is definitely the murderer!”
Eugene copied He Yu’s habit of rubbing his chin.
“But He Yu sounded very certain.”
Wanrenzhan snapped angrily, “Just because he says something means it’s true? Think about what the dean said. He’s obviously the murderer.”
Gedai remained expressionless.
“I also don’t think we necessarily need to listen to He Yu. We’ve been overestimating some unknown contestant.”
He analyzed rationally:
“The grade dean really does resemble the murderer. Tonight we can join forces and kill him. If we kill the wrong person, it doesn’t matter. We’ll just keep searching afterward.”
If not for He Yu, they would’ve started randomly killing people from the very first night.
Anyone suspicious could be killed.
—Advancing was what mattered most.
Gedai offered his suggestion, and no one objected.
Wanrenzhan suddenly said darkly:
“Tonight, the nine of us should act together and eliminate He Yu.”
—
“Wanrenzhan and the others are already preparing to eliminate He Yu tonight, yet he’s still wandering around!”
“He’s probably searching for equipment, but with his luck he won’t find anything good. Getting eliminated is the truly terrifying part, okay?”
“Tsk tsk. Sure enough, this trash-planet contestant No. 2333 might still get eliminated even after becoming a good-guy NPC.”
“He’s too weak. And he insisted on messing with Wanrenzhan and the others during class, so now he’s triggered everyone’s anger.”
...
The audience mocked him relentlessly.
Whether He Yu could see the bullet comments seemed entirely random. Right now, he couldn’t see them at all.
But he didn’t care.
—In fact, he could already guess what Wanrenzhan and the others were planning.
And He Yu still wasn’t anxious.
He leaned casually against the guardroom window and tilted his head slightly.
“Uncle, do you have today’s newspaper?”
Unlike the cafeteria uncle, who smiled like a laughing Buddha, and unlike the stern-faced grade dean, the security guard fell somewhere in between. He carried an upright, righteous aura.
Hearing the question, he politely handed the newspaper in his hands to He Yu and smiled.
“This is today’s paper.”
He Yu accepted it and quickly skimmed through it.
Soon, he spotted a report hidden in one corner—
[Dawn Training School Suffers Another Murder Case. According to reports, this is already the eighth murdered student, and the culprit still hasn’t been identified. The Federation government is extremely dissatisfied. Our planet’s chief guardian stated: “This incident has had a terrible impact and must be solved as soon as possible.” We believe there will soon be results.]
He Yu’s brows lifted slightly.
As expected, the newspaper-loving security guard really was a valuable source of information.
He looked at the guard.
“This incident has really become serious.”
The guard nodded with a heavy expression.
“Yeah. Eight students already, and not a single clue.”
He Yu’s fingers rubbed slowly against the newspaper.
“I wonder who could hate students this much. I heard the culprit is an expert. Why would someone like that target students?”
The guard shook his head.
“Who knows.”
He Yu handed the paper back.
“Uncle, were you also hired by this school three months ago?”
The guard nodded.
“Yeah. The pay is good. Otherwise, I’d never work at a school with a murderer running around.”
When the guard reached for the newspaper, He Yu didn’t let go immediately.
Instead, he stared directly at him and suddenly asked:
“Uncle, since this has already drawn the Federation’s attention, even an S-rank expert would eventually get caught this time, right?”
The guard nodded confidently.
“Definitely.”
He smiled at He Yu.
“So don’t be afraid, Teacher He. Everything will be fine soon.”
He Yu smiled too before finally releasing the paper.
“Yes. The murderer will surface very soon.”
He waved casually.
“You go ahead and work, Uncle. I’ll be leaving first.”
Then he turned and walked away.
The security guard looked utterly confused before withdrawing his gaze and continuing to read the newspaper.
After walking some distance away, He Yu glanced back once and said meaningfully—
“There really are quite a lot of people with builds similar to the murderer.”
—
Night quietly descended.
The eight murdered students had all died at night, making the darkness around Dawn Training School eerily silent. No one dared go outside.
Outside the student dormitories, the grade dean was patrolling around the building.
Far away, hidden within the darkness—
Wanrenzhan whispered, “He’s definitely here to kill someone. He’s looking for a student to target!”
Annie nodded.
“He’s extremely suspicious. He matches the silhouette He Yu drew almost perfectly. When do we attack?”
They looked toward Zhen Xing and Eugene.
—As the two strongest fighters in the group, they held significant authority.
Wanrenzhan’s expression darkened again, and he hated He Yu even more.
If not for He Yu, he would’ve obtained more equipment during the preliminaries. He’d definitely be stronger than those two. Among everyone present, Wanrenzhan had originally been the strongest in open combat.
Of course, Zhen Xing possessed strange techniques and incredible luck with equipment, which was why Wanrenzhan had lost to him.
Zhen Xing spoke calmly.
“If we’re doing this, then we end it quickly.”
As he stood, a magic cube appeared in his hand.
Eugene’s mechanical arm instantly unfolded.
Then—
The familiar sound of vibrating wings appeared.
Wanrenzhan’s face sank.
Bullet comments instantly erupted—
“He Yu’s here. He’s definitely going to demand joining them. Looks like they won’t be able to eliminate him after all.”
“What if none of them agree to let him join?”
He Yu landed lightly.
Eugene stared at the beautiful wings behind him and couldn’t help saying:
“Lend me those wings to play with and I’ll support letting you join us. We won’t eliminate you.”
The corners of He Yu’s lips lifted slightly.
There wasn’t the slightest trace of anxiety or urgency on his face.
Instead, he said calmly:
“You can’t kill him. He isn’t the murderer. You’ll definitely kill the wrong person.”
His gaze swept across everyone present, the lenses resting on his nose reflecting cold light.
“And I will absolutely report all of you.”
“You say he’s not the murderer, so that makes it true?!” Wanrenzhan roared angrily. “If he’s the murderer and we kill him tonight, you won’t even get the chance to report us!”
He Yu neither confirmed nor denied it.
“Really? Then you’re welcome to try.”
Everyone’s expressions darkened. Even Eugene’s gaze toward He Yu gradually turned hostile.
—Killing the grade dean, who had at least a fifty percent chance of being the murderer, was currently the most important thing they could do.
Why was He Yu continuously stopping them?
He Yu’s expression never changed. He simply stood there, eyes unwavering.
Clearly, he had no intention of changing his mind.
Gedai snorted coldly.
“You won’t report us. The murderer is an S-rank expert. You can’t defeat him alone. If you report us, you still won’t be able to kill the murderer or clear this stage.”
Bullet comments instantly agreed—
“Exactly. He Yu doesn’t dare.”
“And with only eight combat power, he can only cooperate with them. There’s no way he can eliminate them before the murderer dies!”
Hearing this, He Yu smiled.
He raised his elegant fingers and adjusted his glasses.
Even beneath the night sky, his beautiful face remained dazzling.
His voice carried a faint laugh.
“Really? But it seems I don’t actually need nine teammates.”
“The murderer is S-rank, but all I need is Eugene, Cheng Zhao, and Qiong. Or perhaps Zhen Xing, Gedai, and Yuan Ze. Or any random combination of three to four people among you.”
“As for the others...”
He smiled even more brilliantly.
“They don’t seem necessary.”
His voice became deeply seductive.
“Doesn’t Eugene want to eliminate Zhen Xing? Doesn’t Gedai want to kill Eugene? Doesn’t Qiong want to get rid of Wanrenzhan? Or does Yuan Ze not want to eliminate all of you Main Planet elites?”
All nine people’s expressions changed drastically.
—Not because He Yu accurately guessed their thoughts, but because they genuinely feared someone might cooperate with He Yu to kill them.
He Yu tilted his head slightly.
“Compared to me, an unknown contestant, all of you are the most likely candidates to become top-tier stars. Don’t you really want to eliminate the people around you?”
He shook his head.
“Judging from your expressions, I was right. Compared to eliminating me, the person you truly want to eliminate is standing beside you.”
All nine stared at He Yu darkly and viciously—
Yet at the same time, they were also guarding against one another.
Compared to eliminating He Yu, a contestant who came from nowhere, Eugene wanted even more to eliminate his greatest rival, Zhen Xing.
Gedai’s desire to kill Eugene was undisguised.
Yuan Ze disliked all Main Planet contestants.
Qiong wanted Wanrenzhan dead even more.
Cheng Zhao, Annie, and Tang Ke all wanted stronger contestants than themselves eliminated...
Oh, Wanrenzhan was the exception.
He only wanted to kill He Yu.
But in this situation, that no longer mattered.
Very few people had reached one hundred thousand votes. Even those who had didn’t want to waste support votes while they could still advance. The later the competition progressed, the more important those votes became.
The bullet comments exploded instantly—
“Holy shit, He Yu is ruthless. He went straight for their weak point.”
“This sowing discord move is insane!”
“He only has eight combat power, but the others don’t know that!”
“Even if they did know, it wouldn’t matter. Compared to He Yu’s eight combat power, they’d still fear the people beside them more.”
“In this competition... there’s actually no trust.”
...
Yes.
In this competition, there was no trust.
The moment they began doubting themselves, their thoughts started wavering. They no longer trusted anyone around them.
That was the vital weakness He Yu had seized.
And during this brief moment of disagreement—
The grade dean’s figure disappeared.
—He had left.
Wanrenzhan ground his teeth furiously.
“So what if he isn’t the murderer?! What’s wrong with killing him anyway?!”
He Yu tilted his head, looking completely innocent.
“If he isn’t the murderer, then why kill him?”
Wanrenzhan: “......”
Bullet comments instantly exploded—
“Fuck! He Yu suddenly acting merciful is making me feel suffocated!”
“Haha. In this competition, soft-hearted people don’t survive.”
Gedai suppressed his irritation.
“Why are you unwilling to follow our logic? The murderer has basically already been narrowed down to a certain range. If we kill ten people every night, we’ll advance in less than two nights.”
He Yu replied calmly:
“I want to know the truth.”
Wanrenzhan couldn’t understand it at all.
“Why? What’s the use of the truth?”
He Yu blinked.
“Because I’m curious. Aren’t you curious?”
Wanrenzhan: “......”
—Fuck, I’m not curious. I just want to advance!!
Instead, Zhen Xing and Eugene became interested.
Zhen Xing asked, “Did you figure something else out again?”
Eugene nodded repeatedly.
“Definitely. Otherwise you wouldn’t suddenly become interested in the truth. Come on, say it. You’ve successfully made me curious.”
Since nobody could kill tonight anyway, they were willing to hear some information instead.
He Yu rubbed his chin and nodded.
“Fine. Then I’ll tell you my analysis.”
His wings trembled slightly as he landed atop a nearby tree.
The other eight followed, sitting in a neat row while staring curiously at He Yu, waiting to hear his deductions.
Wanrenzhan sat farther away with a dark expression, though his ears were still perked up.
Bullet comments flooded the screen—
“...Fuck, now I’m curious too.”
“This case really is suspicious in a lot of ways. Everyone normally relies on their brain-computers, so almost nobody investigates crimes personally. Watching someone solve a case for the first time is honestly pretty exciting.”
“Pulling up a chair for the front row.”
He Yu glanced across them and pushed up his glasses before casually dropping a bombshell—
“At first, I thought there was only one murderer. I also thought everyone was terrified of the murderer and wanted to find them.”
He paused slightly.
“But actually, that isn’t true.”
Everyone froze.
The audience exploded—
“Holy shit!”
He Yu said calmly:
“There may only be one actual killer, but there are many people covering things up. If you dared kill the grade dean today, tomorrow night more than one S-rank expert would come after us.”
Everyone: “???”
Audience: “HOLY SHIT!”
Eugene’s eyes widened.
“Seriously?!”
He Yu nodded.
Below the tree, Wanrenzhan stared upward in disbelief.
“Then why the hell didn’t you say that earlier?!”
—They had almost gone and killed the grade dean!
If more than one S-rank expert really targeted them, even if they weren’t completely wiped out, very few would survive.
He Yu blinked innocently.
“Was it important?”
Everyone: “......”
How the fuck was that not important?!
Zhen Xing immediately pressed further, curiosity hidden beneath his clear eyes.
“And then?”
He Yu spread his hands.
“That’s all for now. The rest still needs verification.”
Everyone inhaled sharply.
Even if there wasn’t more, what He Yu had just revealed was already shocking enough.
If it was true, this instance was going to be extremely difficult.
Right at that moment, Eugene’s ears twitched. Everyone simultaneously looked toward the same direction.
—Someone was there.
From the student dormitories, the class monitor walked out.
He looked around cautiously. After confirming nobody was nearby, he immediately headed off with obvious purpose.
“What’s he doing?” Annie frowned.
Zhen Xing jumped down from the tree.
“Follow him.”
The nine of them instantly chased after the quickly moving class monitor like gusts of wind.
He Yu lagged behind at the very end, flying leisurely and slowly.
Bullet comments drifted past—
“...I don’t know why, but He Yu always looks especially, especially badass.”
“Seriously. Everyone else is sprinting after him while he’s just slowly flying along.”
He Yu didn’t dare fly too fast either. Flying overhead too quickly could easily alert the target.
As long as he knew the direction Eugene and the others were moving in, he could follow them.
But the farther he flew, the more familiar the route became.
He Yu raised a brow.
Soon, the people ahead stopped.
They had arrived at their destination.
—The guardroom.
The class monitor entered the room. Just as He Yu landed, Qiong had already hidden herself nearby. Through the equipment in Zhen Xing’s hands, they could clearly hear the conversation inside.
And the very first sentence the class monitor spoke made He Yu raise his brow again.
“Dad.”
The other nine didn’t react much, though Eugene immediately said:
“The security guard is the class monitor’s father? Then he could also be the murderer. The class monitor clearly knows some clues, and anyone close to him is suspicious.”
The conversation inside continued.
“Why did you come here? Didn’t I tell you not to let anyone know about our relationship?” the security guard asked helplessly.
The class monitor replied, “I came because there’s something important. Those newly transferred people, along with Basic Studies teacher He Yu, are all investigating the murder case.”
The security guard froze before frowning.
“What does that have to do with us? Go back and pretend you discovered nothing.”
“But I’m worried...”
Everyone’s expressions sharpened instantly as they stared fixedly toward the guardroom.
The security guard sighed.
“There’s nothing to worry about. Focus on your studies while I focus on guarding the gate. You need to look forward.”
The class monitor bit down hard.
“I can’t. Every time I close my eyes, I see that scene.”
“Stop thinking about it.”
The guard patted the class monitor’s head.
“Child, sleep here tonight. Get some proper rest. Everything will pass eventually. I’ll stay here and watch over you.”
After that, the two stopped talking.
Qiong quietly retreated, and the others withdrew even farther away.
Tang Ke practically sounded certain.
“The security guard is highly suspicious!”
Everyone turned to look at He Yu.
He Yu didn’t speak. His gaze remained lowered toward the ground as though lost in thought.
Eugene moved closer curiously.
“What are you thinking about?”
He Yu looked up and smiled.
“As expected. Another part of my deduction has been proven correct.”
Eugene: “What?”
Bullet comments: “...What?”
“Fuck, what exactly does He Yu know? He’s impossible to read!”
Wanrenzhan grew increasingly irritated.
“What ‘what’? Is the security guard the murderer or not?! If it’s him, let’s make our move now!”
Zhen Xing calmly replied:
“If the murderer truly has S-rank accomplices, then before we’re one hundred percent certain, we cannot kill suspects. If we kill the wrong person, we’ll be in danger.”
Qiong nodded.
“Right. We still need to investigate.”
Annie also became frustrated.
“Investigate, investigate... how much longer are we supposed to keep investigating?!”
Eugene began organizing the plan.
“The grade dean, the class monitor, and the security guard. We now have three suspects. Tomorrow we’ll split up and follow all three separately. Nobody acts rashly. We regroup afterward and combine our information.”
Everyone nodded.
After discussing details for a while longer, the group finally prepared to disperse. Since nobody could kill tonight and the murderer hadn’t made any moves, there wasn’t much else to do.
“Everyone head back,” Eugene said.
He Yu had remained silent for a while, but just before they separated, he suddenly spoke—
“I think tomorrow we can push the investigation forward.”
Everyone froze.
The instant He Yu spoke, all eyes turned toward him.
He simply possessed that kind of pull. People subconsciously wanted to hear him continue.
And at this point, he undeniably held the most information.
Hearing this, Wanrenzhan gritted his teeth.
“You actually know what progressing the investigation means? You stopped us from killing people, forced us into those Basic Studies classes, and you call that progress?!”
Eugene and the others ignored him completely and instead asked eagerly:
“How do we push it forward?”
He Yu answered naturally:
“The principal definitely possesses the most clues, and he absolutely has nothing to do with the murderer. His combat power is only A-rank. Tomorrow we’ll break through from his side.”
He Yu casually arranged everything:
“Tomorrow, Zhen Xing and Wanrenzhan knock the principal unconscious. Qiong steals his brain-computer. Then we crack it open as quickly as possible.”
Qiong spread her hands helplessly.
“Everything else is fine, but cracking it is impossible.”
Gedai sneered.
“Products from Mechanical Planet aren’t so easily cracked.”
Qiong rolled her eyes.
“If I had my custom high-precision equipment set, I could break it. Your Mechanical Planet brain-computers aren’t even that impressive.”
Gedai coldly laughed.
“There’s no high-precision equipment here. If you can’t crack it, then you can’t crack it.”
Beside them—
He Yu smiled.
Instantly, everyone turned toward him in confusion.
He Yu adjusted his glasses. Beneath the lenses, his eyes gleamed brightly.
“Who said there’s no high-precision equipment?”
He reached out and dragged Eugene and Gedai over in front of Qiong.
Mechanical Planet beings were lightweight enough that even He Yu could pull them.
Then, beneath everyone’s baffled gazes, he calmly declared—
“There are already two top-tier precision machines right here.”
What equipment could possibly be more advanced and precise than actual robots?
Qiong: “?”
Gedai: “??”
Eugene: “???”
The entire Federation audience: “???”
—Holy shit.
—That idea was fucking insane!!
