This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]
Chapter 37: Dawn Training School (22)“...It really is kind of terrifying,” the Gatekeeper Uncle couldn’t help saying.
He Yu stood beside him. It wasn’t that he himself looked frightening—on the contrary, Anna had been a very pretty girl.
But no matter what, seeing a “dead” person appear again, perfectly clean and intact, was horrifying.
The Cafeteria Uncle’s expression was complicated. “The Anna you played was incredibly accurate. Even some of the little movements and expressions were exactly the same. Did you watch videos of Anna from before she died and imitate her?”
You Mo had been close to Anna, so the Cafeteria Uncle had seen Anna many times before.
He Yu nodded. “Mm.”
—That was the foundation of acting.
In his previous life, He Yu had ultimately only experienced one kind of life himself. People were all different from each other, yet acting required portraying thousands upon thousands of completely different people.
Back when He Yu had hit a bottleneck period, he had buried himself among ordinary people. From teachers to waiters, from factory workers to even homeless people, he had imitated them all.
First imitation, then understanding.
He possessed innate spirituality and talent, but he had also given one hundred percent effort and refinement to his craft.
That was how he became—
the one and only hall-level actor.
Eugene scratched his head. Thinking about how He Yu had scared those students senseless earlier, he suddenly burst out laughing.
Zhen Xing looked at him blankly.
Eugene immediately straightened his expression. “The killer probably didn’t come. Someone that patient definitely wouldn’t act rashly.”
He Yu continued calmly, “No rush. We’ll stay patient too.”
“But we don’t have much time left.” The Janitor looked at him questioningly.
He Yu remained composed. “Neither does he. We already deduced it before—he plans to leave during this large transfer wave. Vacation starts tomorrow afternoon. The transfers will happen over the weekend.”
That meant the killer only had tomorrow left.
There was no way he wouldn’t try to figure out what had happened before leaving.
—He was even more anxious than they were.
The Janitor took a deep breath. “I hope you really can catch him.”
He Yu replied calmly, “I never break my word.”
Beside them, the way the Cafeteria Uncle looked at He Yu gradually became heated.
He Yu glanced at him.
The Cafeteria Uncle hesitated, wanting to speak but unable to.
He Yu said flatly, “You want me to pretend to be You Mo?”
The Cafeteria Uncle hadn’t expected He Yu to guess immediately. Excited, he said, “Yes! I want to see You Mo. Please... let me see her again.”
Tears instantly welled in his eyes, filled with desperate yearning.
Not being able to see his daughter one last time was his eternal regret. His longing for her had been carved into his bones. Seeing how realistic He Yu’s Anna was made him think of You Mo...
But He Yu refused. He shook his head.
The Janitor was about to speak when He Yu calmly said, “I played Anna to lure out the killer. Circumstances forced it. I didn’t know You Mo. I don’t understand You Mo, and I don’t know what she would say to you. What I portray is ultimately just a portrayal.”
He looked at the Cafeteria Uncle seriously. “But you understand You Mo. You know everything about her. You know what she would say to you. You Mo has always been in your heart. She doesn’t need someone else to imitate her.”
The Cafeteria Uncle froze.
After a long while, he suddenly smiled as tears rolled down his face. “That’s right. I know what You Mo would say. I know all of it. She wanted me to keep living... but I’m sorry. I can’t keep living anymore. I want to go accompany You Mo.”
He looked up at He Yu sincerely. “Thank you.”
He Yu shook his head, expression calm.
“Let’s go. The killer definitely won’t appear tonight. He needs time to doubt himself.”
After speaking, He Yu took the lead and left the old building.
Zhen Xing, Eugene, and Wanrenzhan followed behind him.
He Yu walked in the middle, with Zhen Xing and Eugene on either side of him while Wanrenzhan walked behind.
Wanrenzhan stared at He Yu’s back and muttered, “You’re seducing me again.”
Definitely!
Otherwise why the hell did he walk so attractively in front of him?
Zhen Xing and Eugene whipped around in shock, faces full of disbelief. For a moment they suspected they’d heard wrong.
Behind them, Wanrenzhan lifted his chin and sneered. “Am I wrong?”
He Yu’s footsteps paused slightly.
Then he softly and gently spat out two words—
“Idiot.”
Wanrenzhan: “......”
【Bullet Comments: “HAHAHAHAHAHA!”】
The Gatekeeper Uncle watched their retreating figures and sighed emotionally. “Those four really are an excellent combination. One brain, one pair of hands, one weapon.”
The Janitor mischievously added, “Maybe they’re still missing a pair of legs and a pair of wings?”
The Gatekeeper Uncle looked helpless. “Good teammates aren’t that easy to come by.”
--
—The old building was haunted. Anna had come back to life.
That news spread through the entire school that very night.
The students who had fled in terror had all “personally witnessed” it, and the story rapidly spread.
Some of them were so shaken they wanted to leave the school immediately.
Of course, some people didn’t believe it.
“How’s that possible? You guys probably saw wrong. Besides, we still don’t even know if Anna and You Mo are really dead.”
“Exactly. Maybe it was just someone’s prank?”
“You definitely saw wrong!”
“I don’t believe it. It’s absolutely fake.”
......
Immediately, students who had seen it with their own eyes jumped out.
“How could it be fake?! Look, my optical brain recorded a video! Last night’s!”
He quickly pulled up the recording and projected it.
Everyone curiously looked over.
When the optical brain recording started, they were approaching the old building. Amid the noisy discussions of the students, all anyone could hear was excitement and curiosity.
After approaching, they directly climbed upstairs.
Floor after floor.
Nothing.
Just as disappointment spread through the video and everyone started going “tsk,” they reached the rooftop.
There, standing on the rooftop, was a long-haired girl in a blue dress.
—Her back looked strangely familiar.
Anna had been a fairly popular girl back in second year. She was pretty, stylish, and many boys had liked her. Especially that blue long dress she loved wearing—it was a beautiful memory for many boys.
That was why they found the silhouette familiar.
Then the person turned around to look at them.
—Anna!
“Ahhh!” someone watching the projection screamed.
“Anna” tilted her head in confusion, seemingly wondering why they had come.
The video immediately became chaotic afterward.
Everyone fled in panic.
“It really is Anna!”
“Oh my god, there’s no way I’d mistake her!”
“Even the freckles on her face are identical. There’s no way it’s just someone who looks similar.”
“Oh god, look at her feet—they’re covered in blood!”
“AHHHHH!”
......
The classroom instantly fell into chaos. Everyone was terrified.
Of course, there were still particularly bold students.
“Why’d you run so fast? I didn’t even get to see the rest. Was it really Anna or not?”
The student who recorded the video roared, “She looked EXACTLY the same! If that wasn’t Anna, then who the hell was it?!”
Besides, everyone had been running. The nighttime atmosphere amplified the terror, and he’d been scared too!
Once the real video spread, even the students who hadn’t gone last night became frightened.
Everyone looked horrified, yet unable to suppress their curiosity and excitement.
Paranormal events always attracted fearless thrill-seekers.
One group became too scared to go.
But another group—
“Fuck, if I’d known, I would’ve gone too!”
“How about... we go again tonight?”
“I went yesterday, but I ran too fast and didn’t see clearly. I wanna go again too.”
“Forget it, it’s too scary...”
......
Someone suggested, “How about we go during the daytime? It won’t be scary in daylight.”
“Right, and nobody got hurt last night, so we definitely won’t get hurt tonight either.”
That group immediately became excited.
At the back of the classroom, Wanrenzhan lowered his voice irritably. “There’s no way to tell who’s acting strange. Could it be someone outside this class?”
Eugene replied, “He’s hidden himself for this long without being exposed. He won’t reveal himself that easily.”
Wanrenzhan frowned. “What if he never reveals himself?”
What if the eighth killer simply transferred away without exposing himself?
Wouldn’t that mean they’d fail the instance entirely?!
Eugene looked at Zhen Xing. “You’re not worried?”
If they failed to clear the mission and advance, not only would they lose the killer’s equipment drops, they’d also have to spend one hundred thousand votes.
That was an absolute blood loss.
Zhen Xing calmly replied, “Didn’t He Yu say to trust him?”
Wanrenzhan exploded. “Just because he says trust him, you blindly trust him?!”
Zhen Xing: “Do you have a better idea, idiot?”
Wanrenzhan instantly flew into a rage. “Don’t learn from that damned He Yu and call me an idiot! I’m not stupid!”
Zhen Xing: “Oh... so meeting He Yu just turns you into an idiot.”
Wanrenzhan: “............”
He wanted to kill someone.
--
There really were plenty of brave idiots.
At lunchtime, the students gathered another exploration group. Dozens of them cautiously approached the old building.
In the distance, someone whispered, “There are so many people. If the killer’s hiding among them, how are we supposed to find him?”
A calm voice answered lightly, “Don’t worry.”
The students climbed straight from the first floor all the way to the rooftop.
But there was nothing there.
No “Anna.”
Not even the bloodstains from last night.
Everything was spotless, as though nothing had ever happened.
“What the hell? There’s nothing here.”
“I came specifically to see her! Why’s there nothing?”
“...But don’t you think this is even scarier now?”
“What do you mean?”
“She only appears at night... During the day every trace disappears completely. And this morning someone checked the gatekeeper office surveillance footage—there was nothing there.”
“Yeah. Other than the students who came last night, nobody entered and nobody left...”
“Fuck! Stop talking already, that’s creepy!”
......
Just as they were heading downstairs while terrifying each other with ghost stories—
a blue-dressed “Anna” suddenly emerged from the dark corridor.
“Tap. Tap. Tap—”
The footsteps sounded horrifying.
“AHHHHH!” The students screamed and immediately fled upon seeing her.
But this group really was bolder than the previous one. Quite a few still remained behind.
One of them trembled as he asked, “W-Who are you...”
“Anna” tilted her head, and Anna’s familiar voice echoed eerily:
“I’m Anna. Don’t you recognize me anymore?”
Even the voice was identical!
—This absolutely had to be the real Anna!!
“AHHHHH—”
This time, every single student bolted outside without daring to stay even a second longer.
Suddenly, a shadow flashed past!
The Janitor swept past the students, grabbed one completely unremarkable male student, and rushed straight up to the rooftop.
The student was startled badly and screamed nonstop.
His reaction was identical to everyone else’s, to the point where even the Janitor began doubting whether He Yu’s deduction had been wrong.
Then several footsteps sounded.
The male student looked up and saw “Anna” appear carrying a mechanical head in her arms.
“She” walked slowly and steadily, utterly calm and composed.
The mechanical head in her arms looked furious, roaring in Anna’s familiar voice:
“He Yu! If you fucking use me like a machine again, I’m gonna lose my shit!”
“Anna” ignored him.
Looking at the student on the ground, “she” spoke in a hoarse, cold male voice—
“What a completely unsurprising outcome, my respectful and obedient dear class monitor.”
