"When I get out of here, I'm going to sue you for intentional assault! You'll be going to jail!"
She told Yu Tang, "Just now, the three of us were walking when Chen Lu suddenly pulled out a knife next to me and stabbed me."
If Brother Chen hadn't taken the knife for me, I might be the one injured now!
"You forced me to do this!" Chen Lu suddenly shouted, her voice hoarse. Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at him: "You threatened me back then, saying that if I didn't tamper with Tingting's design, you would break my brother's legs!"
That's why I...that's why I did such a beastly thing..."
Chen Lu's tears fell again, and she choked out, "If I had known this would kill Tingting... if I had known it would kill her... how could I have done such a thing..."
"I'm so sorry to her, I'm so sorry to her..."
"But Bai Qin, you bitch, you're no better!" Chen Lu wiped away her tears, pointed at Bai Qin and cursed, "You're a pervert! You've had a crush on Wang Chen since you were little, you secretly took pictures of him, and whenever you saw a girl with him, you'd do anything to drive them away!"
"You're jealous of Tingting's excellence. Even though she broke up with Wang Chen, you still forced me to lose her design drafts and ruin her reputation!"
You're a sinner too! Go ahead and sue me! I'll find evidence of you torturing my brother! I'll drag you down to hell with me!
She seemed to have truly gone mad; the wound on her wrist had reopened, and her cuffs were stained with blood.
The hysterical state of the man left Yu Tang and the others stunned.
Lu Qingyuan reached out and touched his forehead, a smile playing on his lips, almost bursting into laughter.
He leaned close to Yu Tang's ear and whispered, "Mr. Angel."
Did you see that?
"This is the evil of human nature."
"People are willing to hurt others, even pushing their closest friends to the brink of death, for their own family, the people they love, or their own desires."
"This is Chen Lu's sin, the sin of betrayal."
Chapter 10
Died for the fifth time for the villain (10)
Yu Tang's eyes widened slightly.
At that moment, as he looked at the five people around him, a wave of sorrow washed over him.
From the information we have so far, Zhang Ping and Zhao Tingting were clearly childhood sweethearts. It's easy to imagine that the girl trusted Zhang Ping a lot back then. But this beast took advantage of the girl when she was drunk and raped her. Just thinking about how much harm and blow that must have been to the girl makes Yu Tang's heart ache.
Cheng Yuan, however, sided with Zhang Ping, choosing to turn a blind eye and cover it up, thinking he was helping his friend, but in reality, he was emboldening the criminals.
Once evil takes root, it will escalate if it is not punished and controlled, and may even lead to secondary and tertiary crimes.
For example, if Yu Tang hadn't appeared in time, Cheng Yuan might have been pushed down the stairs by Zhang Ping's outstretched hand, never imagining that his friend, whom he had been protecting, would actually try to kill him.
He could understand Chen Lu's eagerness to save her brother.
But this cannot be a reason or excuse for her to hurt others!
She can call the police, seek police protection, or tell her friends that she has been threatened and they can work together to find a solution!
Instead of sacrificing Zhao Tingting's reputation to ensure his brother's safety!
And the white zither...
Yu Tang never expected that this seemingly gentle and weak girl could do such a ruthless and perverted thing!
He suddenly remembered the words Lu Qingyuan had used to describe Bai Qin and Wang Chen: "A bitch and a dog, a perfect match."
At the time, he thought that those words were a bit too much. Now it seems that perhaps Lu Qingyuan already knew what these people had done.
Playing this game now is just about watching these villains kill each other...
"I roughly understand." Lu Qingyuan saw that Yu Tang's face was pale, his fists were clenched, and he remained silent.
She knew in her heart that in this short period of time, what these people said and did had a huge impact on this angel who always believed in the inherent goodness of humanity.
Instead of making things difficult for Yu Tang, he said to the five people, "It was Bai Qin who threatened Chen Lu, causing Chen Lu to ruin Zhao Tingting's reputation and ultimately leading to Zhao Tingting's suicide."
So, the murderers are Chen Lu and Bai Qin?
The languid demon tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Does that mean that if we hand Chen Lu and Bai Qin over to that vengeful ghost, we can get a chance to leave this place?"
These words startled everyone.
Cheng Yuan shouted, "We can't hand Chen Lu over to the evil spirit! If we're going back, we'll go back together. There'll always be another way to escape!"
Wang Chen also grabbed Bai Qin's hand and said weakly, "I won't leave Qinqin here either. It was Chen Lu who made the mistake, not her. She was still in high school at the time. I don't believe she would do such a thing."
“And even if she did do it, it would only be because she loves me too much.” He looked at Bai Qin’s face, his eyes full of pity: “I can understand her feelings.”
"Wang Chen, you bastard! Do you think you have no responsibility?!" Chen Lu trembled with anger upon hearing his words. Pointing at Wang Chen, she said, "Tingting only told me after breaking up with you that she suspected you of manipulating her!"
"She showed me your chat history, where you kept bringing up the fact that she wasn't a virgin and verbally insulting her!"
You're spending her money while simultaneously humiliating her, making her feel so inferior and unable to hold her head high in front of you!
"She eventually realized that you had manipulated her, which is why she broke up with you!"
But even after the breakup, she couldn't get over it and remained in a bad mood... Then came the plagiarism scandal... That plagiarism incident completely crushed her..."
Chen Lu broke down in tears again as she spoke. She pushed Cheng Yuan away, stood up, and said, "Regardless of whether the game rules are real or fake, I was wrong, and that's that. This has been weighing on my mind for long enough, and now I'm willing to stand up and accept my punishment. But..."
She pointed at Bai Qin and Wang Chen and said sternly, "But those two adulterers have to stay with me too!"
"If they aren't punished, even if I die here, I'll haunt them as a ghost!"
After saying this, Chen Lu suddenly forced out a twisted smile, which was gloomy and empty.
She walked to the classroom window, placed her hand on the empty glass, and said softly, "Tingting, I'm so sorry about what happened back then. I know I was wrong, and I'm willing to accept your punishment..."
As she spoke, her eyes glazed over, she opened the window, stepped onto the window frame, and leaned forward: "Wait for me, I'll go downstairs and apologize to you right now..."
The sound of tables and chairs overturning rang out.
Yu Tang ran to the window as fast as he could, but only managed to grab the girl's clothes.
Without hesitation, he grabbed the windowsill with one hand and tried to reach down to Chen Lu.
However, he was caught by Lu Qingyuan and could no longer escape.
He struggled violently and shouted angrily, "Let me go! I need to save people!"
Lu Qingyuan hugged him tightly from behind. Being half a head taller than Yu Tang, his lips brushed against the man's ear, his breath hot: "Don't move..."
“Not all men are as incapable as you. If you keep struggling, I’m not sure what I might do.”
Yu Tang was stunned.
Realizing the meaning behind Lu Qingyuan's words, his fingers trembled with anger.
"Besides, look, Chen Lu didn't fall to the ground, did she?"
Just as Yu Tang was about to lose his temper, he calmed down and continued reading after hearing Lu Qingyuan's words.
Cheng Yuan and the others gathered at the window, calling out Chen Lu's name, their gazes fixed on the ground.
However, they found that Chen Lu was nowhere to be seen on the stone brick floor downstairs.
A perfectly healthy person just vanished into thin air...
"Where's Chen Lu?!" Cheng Yuan stared wide-eyed, looking through several windows in turn, but he couldn't even see a shadow of Chen Lu.
Enraged, he walked up to Bai Qin, pointed at the woman, and yelled, "You're the one who killed Chen Lu! If you hadn't made her frame Zhao Tingting, things wouldn't be like this today!"
He shouted, "Don't think I'm afraid of you just because your family has some dirty money!"
"You!" He pointed at Bai Qin, then at Wang Chen, "And you! You two adulterers will get your comeuppance sooner or later!"
"Cheng Yuan, calm down!" Zhang Ping pulled Cheng Yuan back. "Chen Lu might not be dead yet, after all, we haven't seen her body! And now is not the time to fight amongst ourselves! We need to find a way to escape together!"
Before Zhang Ping could finish speaking, that familiar mechanical voice suddenly rang out from all around.
Chen Lu is dead, and her body has been retrieved by the vengeful ghost Zhao Tingting. It has been confirmed that she is not the murderer of Zhao Tingting. According to the game rules, all players must find the real murderer and hand her over to Zhao Tingting.
If the murderer is not found within the allotted time, everyone will be killed.
The game continues.
Chapter 11
Died for the villain for the fifth time (11)
Everyone was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.
Cheng Yuan's eyes instantly turned red, and he struggled to fight Bai Qin and Wang Chen: "You're the ones who killed her! Bai Qin! I used to think you were innocent, but now I know you're not even human!"
"Cheng Yuan! Calm down!" Zhang Ping, who studied physical education and was strong, carried Cheng Yuan to the next classroom, saying to Yu Tang and the others, "Wait here for me, I'll go and talk to him!"
Fearing that Zhang Ping might harm Cheng Yuan, Yu Tang decided to follow him.
But Lu Qingyuan grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the room to an empty classroom.
He asked Yu Tang, "Do you think there's any hope for these people now?"
Yu Tang didn't answer Lu Qingyuan's question, but instead asked, "Where did Chen Lu go? Is she really dead?"
"Who knows?" Lu Qingyuan didn't answer his question directly, but instead asked, "If I said she's dead, and you've lost this game, would you still continue playing?"
He said, "The choice is yours now, if you want to start the next game."
We can now abandon this bunch of villains and move on to the next game, even if you lose this one.
“After all, it’s best two out of three.” Lu Qingyuan laughed. “So you still have two more chances. There’s no need to bother with these hopeless people.”
Yu Tang asked, "If I choose to start a new game, what will happen to the remaining players?"
Lu Qingyuan replied, "Naturally... they'll die without a burial place."
"They will distrust each other, kill each other, or spend their last moments in revelry and debauchery until they are all dead."
"But... they deserve it all."
Sharp fangs protruded from beneath his lips, and the handsome devil stated the facts in a gentle tone: "Zhang Ping is guilty of threatening rape, Cheng Yuan is guilty of concealing and protecting, Bai Qin is guilty of possessive lust, Wang Chen is guilty of mind manipulation, and Chen Lu is guilty of abandonment and betrayal. Each of them is guilty, and each of them deserves to die."
"They do not deserve anyone's sympathy. Only by offering their entire life and soul can they atone for the dead."
He asked Yu Tang, "So, Mr. Angel, this is a dead end from the start. Even if you choose to stay, how do you break it?"
