Chapter 6: A Class Really Has Been Haunted
Chapter 6: A Class Really Has Been Haunted
Chapter 6
Shi Li's inner thoughts instantly sobered everyone up.
They were terrified she might discover that they could hear her thoughts.
The teacher at the blackboard noticed that in a split second, the students became very alert.
Those who had been struggling to keep their eyes open now had them wide as saucers.
The most frightening thing was that it wasn't just one student who changed like this.
Nearly thirty students reacted this way, which the teacher found quite alarming.
Yesterday in the office, she had heard the math teacher say that Class 1 had something evil in it, and he was going to the temple to get a protective charm.
She had thought he was just getting old and prone to wild ideas.
He was supposed to be a staunch materialist who absolutely wouldn't believe in supernatural nonsense.
Now, she wasn't so sure about her previously firm beliefs.
She... she... she... she decided to go to the temple with the math teacher over the weekend to burn some incense.
This time after school, Wei Yi didn't cling to Shi Li to go home together.
Shi Li was an unqualified task executor; she actually forgot that she was supposed to pester the male lead after school.
The habit from her previous life made her go straight home to do homework after school.
Lying in bed before sleep, she habitually reviewed the day's events.
While going over what she had learned today, she was horrified to realize she had forgotten to find the male lead!
Shi Li bit the corner of her blanket and wept softly. She wasn't a qualified supporting character; how could she forget such an important thing?
The next day, Shi Li turned into a sad little mushroom, constantly reminding herself of her role.
But what she didn't know was that her classmates could hear her complaints.
One person's self-pity became a group's breakdown.
Her voice falling on the ears of other classmates was nothing short of torture.
[I like Feng Yunhe]
[I really like Feng Yunhe]
[I'm going to find him after school today]
The others who could hear Shi Li's thoughts were going crazy.
Your crush on him is known throughout Blue City, no need to remind us.
The top students needed to listen to the teacher during class, and Shi Li's occasional outbursts were really disrupting their train of thought.
As for those who didn't care much for studying, the impact was even greater.
They were sleeping soundly when suddenly her voice popped up saying she liked Feng Yunhe.
Someone was secretly watching a horror movie when she suddenly said: I'm going to find him after school. The scary atmosphere vanished instantly - what's the point of watching now?
The most infuriating thing was that even with her mind full of Feng Yunhe, when the teacher called on her to answer a question, she could still give the correct solution without stuttering.
One second she was thinking about Feng Yunhe, the next she was called on by the teacher.
The other classmates thought the teacher had seen her lovesick expression from the podium and called on her because of that.
Half the class worried that she, lost in thoughts of her crush, wouldn't be able to answer the teacher's question.
For an ordinary student, being unable to answer the teacher's question wasn't a big deal.
But for a top student like Shi Li, it could be quite damaging to her reputation.
So a group led by Wei Yi and Shi Qiuyu tried to find ways to pass Shi Li the answer.
Another group hoped she wouldn't be able to answer, forcing her into self-reflection and stopping her from thinking about boys during class, which really affected others' nap time.
Shi Li's train of thought about boys was interrupted, and after that, no more inner monologues about Feng Yunhe were heard.
The students of Class 1, Year 1 finally got through a quiet and peaceful lesson.
However, after this incident, even the slackers in the back rows who usually slept or played on their phones started paying attention to the blackboard.
Sleeper No. 1: Being woken up every few minutes, how the hell am I supposed to sleep?
Sleeper No. 2: I'm wide awake now, can't sleep at all.
Sleeper No. 2: Even the gibberish of math formulas has lost its hypnotic effect.
The students in the back rows suddenly raised their heads, staring intently at the podium.
Math teacher: I told you we need to go pray at the temple this weekend.
Shi Li had been calling out Feng Yunhe's name for half the class, and the class group chat was bustling with activity.
[The rumors were true, Shi Li is super in love]
[Shi Li is super in love]
In an instant, the chat was flooded with "Shi Li is super in love."
Until someone broke the pattern.
[I almost thought Shi Li was possessed or had a brain transplant, but she still loves Feng Yunhe so much]
[Definitely the original, who else could it be]
A group chat without Wei Yi but with Shi Li was renamed on the day of its creation to "What Did Shi Li Say Today"
While discussing Shi Li and Feng Yunhe, the "Did Wei Yongsheng Get in Trouble Today" group chat was also buzzing with activity.
Many people were chatting in both groups simultaneously, and someone accidentally mixed up the chats.
Getting carried away in the smaller group, they excitedly changed "What Did Shi Li Say Today" to "24-Hour Countdown to Wei the Scum's Life"
Wei Yi smiled: Alright, I know you have other small groups now.
[What are you doing!]
[Recall it, quick, recall it!]
[Are you insane?]
The person who changed the wrong group chat name panicked, rushing to change it back, but kept receiving private messages from others, fumbling for a long time without success.
In the end, their kind-hearted deskmate helped change the group name back.
Wei Yi, who witnessed the whole process: ......
Oh, my dear classmates, he changed the group chat name, not sent a chat message.
Even if you change it back, I can still see the group name modification history.
At this moment, she fell into deep thought.
Should she pretend not to have seen it, or should she magnanimously say in the group that everyone can criticize as they like, she doesn't mind.
After two seconds of contemplation, she chose the latter, unbothered approach.
She even sent a friendly message: [Seeing everyone's chat records has improved my mood]
Other classmates: ...... Okay, we get it, you hate Wei Yongsheng
However, the more perceptive classmates gleaned a lot of information from Wei Yi's words.
Such an obvious expression of disgust towards Wei Yongsheng meant she must have obtained definitive investigation results - Wei Yongsheng must be keeping a mistress.
Wei Yongsheng was keeping a mistress outside, Shi Li was right.
Does that mean Wei Yongsheng will soon be in trouble?
Despite all the lively discussions these past few days, everyone had just been treating Wei Yongsheng's affair as gossip fodder, no one really took it seriously.
Although sometimes only the students in Class 1 of the first year of high school could hear what Shi Li said, even the teachers couldn't hear it.
Some people suspected that Shi Li might be conspiring with the teachers, so they checked the surveillance footage that night.
The prestigious school had cameras everywhere, fearing that students might get into trouble on campus. The school administration would have installed cameras in the bathrooms if they could.
Of course, considering students' human rights, the proposal to put cameras in bathrooms was ultimately rejected.
It wasn't really out of respect for human rights, though. They were mainly afraid that the spoiled "little emperors" would tear the school apart if they felt humiliated.
The school's high-definition cameras captured everything clearly. Shi Li didn't open her mouth or make any sound during the entire class period.
What was going on? It was truly baffling.
Although they acknowledged the possibility of encountering something supernatural, people didn't really believe Shi Li's claims about Wei Yongsheng's affair or his impending death in a car accident.
After all, how could Shi Li not only encounter the supernatural but also see into the future?
However, after learning that Wei Yongsheng was indeed having an affair, everyone became more excited about what might happen the next day.
As the end of the school day approached, students became increasingly restless.
Some had already prepared to leave, just waiting for the bell to grab their bags and go.
Others who had private tutoring sessions in the evening were furiously scribbling to finish their homework.
...
Of course, Shi Li didn't fall into either of these categories.
She hadn't contacted the male lead for two consecutive days, which was unacceptable for a devoted admirer!
So, as the school day was ending, Shi Li set aside twenty minutes to briefly pester the male lead.
However, due to her limited interactions with him in her previous life, she spent ten minutes composing a single message without sending it.
[Yunhe ge ge, would this sound too formal?]
The classmates who were happily preparing to leave school and suddenly heard this bizarre voice in their heads: ... Enough, I pity myself.
