This Actor Is Full Of Tricks

The walls were densely covered with vicious words, each stroke and line formed from fresh blood.

[Remember every school rule! It is your basis for survival!]

[This school is full of urban legends. When night falls, the legends will descend. Be careful and never trigger them! They can ignore the school rules and kill you!]

[I don't want to become food! Can anyone save me!!!]

Lin Jue found a few complete sentences among these graffiti-like words, logically clear and coherent. Judging from the tone, they didn't seem to be written by something eerie.

This was information left by a living person, and judging from the first line, that living person left the information after the former headmaster came to the school and established the school rules.

In other words, at the time node after the school rules were established, there were still living people in this school.

This made a guess rise in Lin Jue's heart: are there still living people in this school now? And where are they hiding?

Also, the second piece of information, that urban legends will descend at night, does that mean that these students and teachers look normal during the day, but transform into fierce ghosts at night?

In comparison, the last piece of information seemed much more normal. After all, living people are food for the eerie.

After wandering around, there was only one class for each grade in this building, and the number of students was about the same as the junior high school department.

At the innermost part of the top floor was the principal's office. The office door was tightly closed. Lin Jue stood outside the door, considering whether to go in and say hello to the principal, to leave a good impression on this great leader.

In the end, he gave up on this idea and returned to the plaza.

Following the plaza inward, connected to the plaza was a man-made lake. The banks of the lake were dotted with plants and flowers, but they had long withered, lifeless and silent.

The lake water was not the usual green, but a turbid, earthy yellow. Standing on the bridge above the lake and looking down, one could vaguely see shadows at the bottom of the lake.

Judging from the outlines, those should be corpses sunk at the bottom of the lake.

Lin Jue stood and watched for a long time, but didn't find anything unusual, so he walked along the bridge to the other side.

Two scarlet buildings came into view, the male and female dormitories respectively. The buildings didn't specify which side was the male dormitory and which side was the female dormitory. Upholding the traditional rule of 'male left, female right,' Lin Jue walked towards the building on the right without hesitation.

"Stop! This is the female dormitory. What are you doing here, a man?"

Before he even got close to the gate, a fat, middle-aged female ghost rushed out from the first floor.

This female ghost was very fat, estimated to be at least three hundred pounds. The fat all over her body was piled into folds, and her facial features were squeezed into the fat, making it impossible to see her appearance clearly.

This female ghost should be the female dormitory supervisor.

Lin Jue pretended to be apologetic, scratching his head embarrassedly: "Sorry, I'm a new psychology teacher. I'm looking for the infirmary, but I don't know how to get there."

"A new psychology teacher?" The dormitory supervisor sized Lin Jue up and down, her tone very disdainful: "Skinny arms and legs, not much meat on you."

Her words sounded like she was describing food.

"Go through the dormitory building to the sports field. The infirmary is at the innermost part of the sports field."

Although her tone sounded unpleasant, the dormitory supervisor was still very enthusiastic in giving directions. After speaking, she lowered her voice: "Since you're new, I'll give you a piece of advice."

"If you want to survive here, you must abide by the school rules. Men are not allowed to enter the female dormitory. Luckily you met me, and I'm making an exception for you. If it were someone else, they would have attacked you long ago and swallowed you."

"Also, if the other party hasn't violated the rules, never take action privately. This is an untouchable bottom line. Once violated, something very terrifying will happen."

To survive, you must abide by the school rules.

This wasn't the first time Lin Jue had heard such words. He had seen similar words left by living people on the wall before. Now it seemed that even if the eerie violated the school rules, they would die and be swallowed.

No wonder that Director Zheng looked like he wanted him to violate the rules. The other party must have wanted to swallow him to increase their strength.

This school was like a game field, and all the students and teachers inside were players. They had to act within the game rules, and if they violated the rules, they would die.

Lin Jue roughly understood the basic logic of the school's normal operation. After thanking the dormitory supervisor, he walked through the dormitory building.

The sports field wasn't large, with only a few simple basketball hoops and two ping-pong tables. At the innermost part was a low, one-story building with broken doors and windows, and some rotting animal carcasses piled in the corner.

That was his workplace and resting place, the infirmary.

At this moment, a female student was standing outside the infirmary, covered in dirt, with long hair as dry as straw hanging in front of her face, revealing only a pair of gloomy eyes, and blood dripping from her mouth.

She didn't look like a good ghost.

"Teacher, I'm here to deliver your class schedule." As soon as the female student saw Lin Jue, she ran over unsteadily.

Deliver the class schedule?

Lin Jue took the class schedule from the female student's hand. The originally white paper was smudged dirty by the female student's hand.

He glanced at the class schedule. Every one of his classes was in the afternoon after dinner, only one class a day, taking turns.

"Thank you." Lin Jue gave the female student a smile. Just as the female student was about to leave, he suddenly stopped her: "Wait a moment."

"What's wrong, teacher?" The female student turned her head, her eyes revealing confusion from within her hair.

"If I remember correctly, it's class time now. Why are you, a student, running around instead of being in the classroom? Have you forgotten the school rules?"

Hearing Lin Jue's serious question, the female student was immediately stunned: "Teacher, didn't I come to deliver the class schedule to you? Director Zheng told me..."

"I don't care about Director Zheng or Deputy Director, I only know that it's class time now. Couldn't you have come during break time?" Lin Jue directly interrupted her impatiently: "Is Director Zheng bigger than the school rules?"

You bastard, are you a dog? I kindly delivered the class schedule to you, and you pull this on me?

The female student's entire ghost was not well. She wanted to refute, but didn't know where to start, because what the other party said was indeed very reasonable.

Her eyes began to bleed, seemingly wary of Lin Jue suddenly attacking.

"Who told me I'm a kind-hearted teacher? As long as you promise me one thing, I'll let it go this time." Lin Jue suddenly changed from his previous sternness, his tone becoming gentle.

The female student's expression was unkind: "What is it?"

She always felt that this new teacher was up to no good.

"You know where the Fierce Blood is kept, right? How about this, you go steal two buckets for me, and I'll let you go." Lin Jue looked like he was doing a great act of mercy.

"Go to hell! You bastard, die!" The female student couldn't bear it any longer and attacked first.

The Fierce Blood was controlled and distributed by the principal. For her, a student, to covet the principal's things, what difference was there from courting death, and the outcome might be even more miserable than death!

This new teacher was clearly not planning to leave her a way out.

"Attacking a teacher, you've violated another school rule! A rebellious student like you definitely has a very serious psychological problem. As a psychology teacher, it's necessary for me to correct you."

Lin Jue retreated while dodging the female student's attack, while taking off his bag and taking out the bronze dagger.

The purpose of him doing this was to verify his previous guess, and he had already received confirmation from the female student's reaction.

This school, on the surface, looked peaceful and harmonious, but in reality, it was full of hidden murderous intent. The teachers and students all harbored their own ulterior motives. Because they were bound by the school rules, they didn't kill each other.

And as long as they discovered something that violated the school rules, they could directly attack it and devour it.

However, before he could start counterattacking, the female student suddenly screamed, as if an invisible hand grabbed her body and twisted it violently.

Her bones seemed to be shattered, leaving only a breath.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jue immediately understood why the dormitory supervisor said not to take action privately.

Taking action against someone who hasn't violated the rules would cause some kind of mysterious power to descend, and the one who died would be himself.

But where did this power come from? Was it the power left by the former headmaster? Or was it that the other party hadn't left, but was hiding in the dark, observing the entire school?
