The tone of the student was noticeably urgent. Shen Jianghuan could no longer hold back. "If it weren't for my Termination Evolution Talisman, you would probably be dead in that corner. You can't enjoy the benefits brought by others while expecting them to make even greater sacrifices, can you?"
If everyone were as selfish and indifferent as he was, then why should she use the Termination Evolution Talisman to buy everyone fifteen hours? Wouldn't it be simpler for everyone to just wait for death together?
The male student speaking felt a bit ashamed. "I wasn't talking about you, Senior. Besides, you’re a woman, so you’re not within the Killer Clue's range!"
Li Jianping cleared his throat heavily upon hearing this. "Even so, we must exclude the two of us." He pointed to himself and then to Master Ban. "Neither of us lives on campus! We’re also outside the Killer Clue's range."
The other students looked at Tan Ming. Some who knew him confirmed that Tan Ming was also outside the Killer Clue's range; he was in Nan Yuan Building.
That makes sense! So everyone has been excluded!
Of course! Those who dared to stand up are all certain they are not the murderer! We want to live, and so does the murderer; why would they be foolish enough to step forward?
This reasoning made perfect sense. Tan Ming thought to himself, but his gaze inadvertently swept over Yan Qing, who had somehow returned to the crowd, sitting on the ground with her head propped up, lost in thought.
Tan Ming was quick-witted; from Yan Qing's series of reactions, he concluded that she must be the messenger. Yet she hadn’t bravely stepped forward. Suddenly, Tan Ming recalled when he had rushed out of the library yesterday and asked Yan Qing which dorm she lived in; she had replied with a number.
Yan Qing shouldn’t have been lying.
First of all, at that time, the Wolf Messenger Identity had not yet been activated, so Yan Qing couldn’t have known about the murderer’s clues so early. Secondly, while Yan Qing wasn’t foolish, she wasn’t clever enough to prepare for such things in advance either.
Could it be that she really isn’t the messenger? Or could Hunger be a sign that ordinary people might exhibit?
Everyone held their own opinions and debated incessantly. The square was filled with a cacophony of voices.
Tan Ming sat down beside Yan Qing. She glanced at him but didn’t show any signs of unusual behavior.
“How’s your leg? You cried out when you fell earlier.”
“It’s fine.”
Tan Ming pondered for a moment. “Actually, I think the Building Dormitory isn’t specific enough.”
As he spoke, the chatter around him came to a halt, and everyone turned to listen.
Yan Qing raised his head, eager to hear more.
"Our school has the Nanyuan Building Dormitory, the Beiyuan Building Dormitory, the East Courtyard Dormitory, and the Xiyuan Building Dormitory. All four of these dormitories are for male students. If we consider each dormitory as an individual case, we have a potential suspect. Among these individuals, we cannot ascertain how many are messengers or how many have died."
Shen Jianghuan added, "That's not a problem. The computer in the management office on the third floor of the building has the entire list of student accommodations. We can retrieve the information for any dormitory."
A classmate nearby slapped his forehead in realization. "Right! This way we can obtain information about this student and then check each one in the school. For those who are still alive, we can confirm their identities, and it won't be long before we uncover the murderer!"
Tan Minghuo stood up and declared loudly, "There's no time to waste; let's proceed with this plan!"
