Playing on the phone?
Playing Go?
On a regular day, someone might say, isn't evening self-study meant for these activities?
What else would you do, read a book?
But today, no one was in the mood for any of that.
The classroom was silent.
The air was filled with a sense of unease and anxiety.
No one knew if the bloody writing would appear, or if their name would be drawn...
Teachers passing by Class Ten occasionally glanced inside, seeing the silence, they thought the students had turned over a new leaf and were preparing to study hard for the college entrance examination...
The two dull classes passed quickly, and during this time, the surroundings remained uneventful.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang..."
Finally, the bell for the third class rang.
Everyone sat at their desks, staring unblinkingly at the blackboard.
Wu Wentao closed his eyes tightly, clasped his hands together, and kept muttering, "Buddha, Jade Emperor, God, Allah... please bless us, don't let it appear tonight, and if it does, don't pick me!"
Unfortunately, reality was not as he wished.
Shortly after the bell rang.
A line of bloody writing appeared on the blackboard.
【Good evening, everyone】
The students in the class instantly broke down.
"Good, my ass!" Ye Haoyu slammed the table and stood up, cursing, "What the hell are you, and why are you targeting us?"
Wu Wentao's face turned ashen, and he couldn't help but plead, "Can you not come to our class anymore? Please go to another class!"
Su Yuan glanced at the time on his phone: 9:10 PM.
It was about the time he woke up yesterday.
Today, the bloody writing seemed to have appeared a bit earlier.
【Now starting to randomly select the game type】
The seven word cards from yesterday appeared on the blackboard again.
【Quiz Challenge】
【Team Collaboration】
【Team Competition】
【Casual Strategy】
【Fun Adventure】
【Treasure Hunt in a Locked Room】
【Apocalyptic Survival】
The seven word cards flashed red in sequence.
Su Yuan stared intently at these word cards, lost in thought.
Just hearing the names of each game on the blackboard was enough to spark endless imagination.
Especially the last one, Apocalyptic Survival.
Apocalypse... what would happen in this game?
Earthquake, tsunami... a night parade of a hundred ghosts?
Could the bloody writing really achieve this?
If it could, then the ones in trouble wouldn't just be the students in the class, right?
And if the ultimate goal of the bloody writing was to kill, why not just choose Apocalyptic Survival directly, instead of doing a random draw?
Is it enjoying the thrill of a cat-and-mouse game, toying with its prey?
Or is it simply incapable of doing so?
Su Yuan irritably scratched his head, realizing he still knew too little, and everything was just speculation.
As he pondered, the game selection process came to an end.
The red light finally stopped on Team Collaboration.
Before everyone could react, the bloody writing continued to appear.
【Now starting to randomly select participants】
【The participants for this game are: Tian Yu, Xia Shiyuan, Ye Runhai, Song Xiaoxia, Wu Bin】
"Didn't pick me..." Wu Wentao stared at the names on the blackboard, then jumped up, waving his arms, "Didn't pick me, hahahahaha!"
But just halfway through his laughter, a scream escaped his mouth.
A chair was hurled violently at his back.
Wu Wentao clutched his back, turned around, and snarled, "Who the hell threw that?"
"Your dad did!" Tian Yu, eyes red with rage, charged forward, picked up the chair, and rushed at Wu Wentao again, "You happy, huh? I'll beat the crap out of you!"
Seeing the murderous Tian Yu, Wu Wentao, who initially wanted to retaliate, immediately shrank back and started running around the classroom in panic.
Since Tian Yu was chosen by the bloody writing, whether he could survive the night was uncertain. If he decided to go down in flames and take Wu Wentao with him, it wasn't impossible.
Thinking of this, Wu Wentao pleaded as he ran, "I'm sorry, I wasn't gloating, I just couldn't control myself..."
Other students quickly rushed to intervene.
"Don't worry about him now, completing the game is more important."
"Finish the game and everything will be fine, settle any grievances afterward!" Zhou Yulong tightly hugged Tian Yu's waist.
Song Xiaoxia's deskmate, Yang Ruo, also stood up and scolded Wu Wentao, "What are you laughing about? It's only a matter of time before you're picked. Is this the time to laugh?!"
Realizing he had angered everyone, Wu Wentao dared not speak again, sheepishly retreating to a corner of the classroom.
Su Yuan felt his heart pounding, and when he turned his head, he met Song Xiaoxia's gaze.
At this moment, Song Xiaoxia's face was pale, but she still forced a smile, as if to comfort Su Yuan, "It's okay."
What the hell, you're the one who got picked, why are you comforting me... Su Yuan took a deep breath and turned his gaze back to the blackboard.
【Tonight's game is called: Drop the Handkerchief】
【Please clear a space in the classroom first】
Everyone quickly got to work, pulling the two rows of desks in the middle to the sides. The desks were left askew, and books fell out, but no one cared.
In no time, a large space was cleared in the middle of the classroom.
【Game content:
Select four players to act as children, sitting in a circle in the cleared space.
The remaining player acts as the teacher who drops the handkerchief.
When the game starts, four identical pieces of music will play.
At the end of the music, the teacher drops the handkerchief】
【Rule 1: At the end of the four pieces of music, there must be a handkerchief behind each child, otherwise, all players are eliminated】
【Rule 2: The teacher's starting position for each round does not change】

【Rule 3: The teacher's steps cannot pause for more than 0.75 seconds】
【Rule 4: Each step the teacher takes must cover at least one grid】
【Rule 5: This rule is for the children, since you're children, just sit quietly】
Su Yuan's chair wobbled as he tried to stand up.
【Rule 6: From this moment until the end of the game, no player may give any hints in any form, otherwise, it's considered a game failure!】
【Rule 7: Once the game starts, outside players are not allowed to make any noise, otherwise, it's considered a game failure!】
Su Yuan clenched his fists and sat back down.
What kind of Team Collaboration game is this?
This is clearly a game for the "teacher" alone.
The only team aspect is that if you lose, everyone dies!
Tian Yu's chair clattered to the ground, and he looked desperate, "Why is today's game so complicated? Yesterday it was just a quiz question!"
The other four felt equally suffocated, unable to think under the weight of impending death.
They hadn't even finished reading the rules when the bloody writing appeared again on the blackboard.
