Huang Xia's thoughts were of no to Qin Nuo, as long as his role-pying didn't falter, nothing else mattered to him.
Pag up his textbooks, Qin Nuo recalled the note left by those two deli students.
Sihis was an act, many things couldn't be avoided. Taking a beating was no big deal for Qin Nuo; gaining role-pying points was the main goal.
Because of his correswer earlier, he gained 5% in role-pying points, and every pyer's character starts with 20%.
If the role-pying points drop below 10%, it could be dangerous.
At this moment, as the school bell rang, students poured out of the school gates, and soon, the s and corridors of the teag building became deserted.
Following the note, Qin Nuo quickly arrived at the third floor of the teag building, where the corridor e the boys' and girls' restrooms.
Ihe restroom, the enviro was terrible. The air was filled with a foul stench mixed with the pu smell of smoke, truly a se of chaos.
When Qin ered, a few yellow-haired students smoking inside saw him, gave him a strange look, and abruptly left the restroom.
Now, Qin Nuo was the only o in the restroom.
"Did I e too early?" Qin Nuo muttered to himself, c his nose and mouth, pnning to leave first.
Just as he stepped out of the restroom, the two deli students from the afternoon arrived.
Qin Nuo wisely returo the restroom, croug with his head in his hands, looking terrified, as if the word "coward" was written all over his face.
"Bro, I knorong. you go easy ooday?"
The two delis gave him a peculiar look, flicked their cigarettes onto the floor, and crushed them with their shoes.
Then, they waved towards the door and shouted, "Bring him in!"
Two more delis entered, dragging a student with a head full of blood, and threw him beside Qin Nuo.
Though the boy's face was bruised and his head was bleeding, his mouth lit into a twisted smile.
He stared at Qin Nuo with a look of madness and provocation.
Qin Nuo was pletely baffled.
What was this?
A warning?
Then, the two delis spoke up, "Boss, stop pying around."
"We brought this traitor to you and gave him a lesson acc to your rules. Now, deal with him!"
Hearing this, Qin Nuo's expression froze.
"Boss?"
Was that what they called him?
Wasn't the character he ying, Li Xiaoming, supposed to be a weak student being bullied?
Qin Nuo stood up, and a red-haired student handed him a chisel-like tool.
"Boss, it's your turn to perform."
The delis looked at him with a mix of excitement, admiration, and awe.
Seeing those eyes, Qin Nuo suddenly uood.
So, this Li Xiaoming wasn't a bullied student.
He was the ringleader of the bullies!
This caught Qin Nuo pletely off guard. Who would have thought that a top student, dressed ly and seemingly well-educated, would be the leader of a group of delis?
The bullied student stared directly at Qin Nuo, the crazed smile never leaving his face, showing no sign of fear.
Qin Nuo held the chisel-like tool in silence for a moment, then tucked it into his waistband, suddenly dragging the student into the restroom for a brutal beating.
Blood spttered oiles, and the student ughed maniacally even as he was beaten.
Finally, when Qin Nuo's hands were sore, he figured it was enough and emerged from the restroom, his hands covered in blood.
As he washed the blood off at the sink, he said coldly, "Your boss is busy. Hahese trivial matters yourselves iure. Don't waste my precious time!"
"'t even hahis little thing, how do you expect to run with me?"
No one answered.
The atmosphere in the restroom suddenly shifted.
The red-haired student and others wore strange and fused expressions, corpse-like spots spreading on their bodies, ghost aura seeping from their pores.
Their faces began to twist, being as terrifying as the face of a corpse, staring ily at Qin Nuo.
Their expressions seemed as if they were about to tear Qin Nuo apart in the sed.
Qin Nuo's face ged.
These guys were undergoing ghost transformation!
Didn't he just beat that kid?
And reprimahem ione of a boss. Which step went wrong?
"Boss, why are you ag se today?"
"This isn't like you at all. Were you just tig that traitor? You hit so lightly!"
Qin Nuo's mouth twitched.
Damn it, he had beaten the kid beynition, covered in blood, and they called that tig?
Eveudent who had beeen in the restroom mocked him.
"Pathetic, hitting like a girl, nth at all. With a boss like this, you guys still follow?"
Qin Nuo's expression darkened, suddenly pulling out the chisel-like tool and striking it hard oudent's skull, instantly pierg through the bone.
Then, using ghost power, he yanked his arm, creating a bloody se in the restroom cubicle.
The student's head fell into the pool of blood...
Qin Nuo looked at the head, expressionless.
These were no longer humans, so he felt no guilt.
"Beautiful! That's our boss!"
"I thought someone was impersonating the boss, hitting a traitor so lightly!"
Seeing the head, the students cheered, howling with excitement.
At this moment, the corpse-like spots on their faces slowly faded away.
Qin Nuo felt speechless.
How violent was this Li Xiaoming?
Initially, through various observations, he had cluded that he ying a typical model student, a bookworm who only studied.
Now, thinking back, he felt his face burning with embarrassment!
"Boss, yirlfrie you a message."
"The girlfriend, Huang Xia?" Qin Nuo asked.
"Not that girl, you don't fancy her. It's a few irlfriends," the red-haired student replied.
Qin Nuo: "..."
He suddenly realized his uanding of Li Xiaoming's character was pletely off.
He thought he was a model student, but he was the school boss.
He thought rejeg Huang Xia's gift was to focus on studying, but it was because he didn't care for her.
Even more absurd, this kid was juggling multiple retionships?
Qin Nuo coughed lightly, expressionless, and said, "Got it, tell her not to bother me."
After saying that, he left the restroom.
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, his role-pying points would drop further, and he would be exposed.
Leaving the restroom, he returo the .
Qin Nuo picked up his backpack, ready to go home.
The school ID card had the correct address, but he had no idea how many family members Li Xiaoming had.
He hoped the family members were retively normal.
Qin Nuo prayed silently.
As he walked dowairs with his backpack, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes watg him.
Qin Nuo turned around and saw an eye peeking from the er of the stairwell wall, staring straight at him.
The person, seeing Qin Nuo had noticed, didn't hide but instead revealed herself bit by bit.
It was a girl with disheveled hair, dressed sloppily, her nails digging into the wall covered in grime.
Under her dry, messy hair, a pair of trembling eyes stared at Qin Nuo with excitement, revealing a pathological possessiveness.
Her mouth cracked opeing out a creepy ugh that echoed iairwell.
Qin Nuhat look; it was the same as Huang Xia's, only much more intense and crazed...
