Chapter 740: An easy reversal, a triggered side branch!
Translator: 549690339
[A week later, during self-study cla.s.s.]
With the arrival of the interlude voice, Feng bujue and w.a.n.g Tanzhi’s environment changed again.
They were originally standing, but now they were sitting again, back to their seats in the cla.s.sroom.
Both of them knew that after successfully preventing Xiong Ji from being arrested, there was not much time left for them to communicate. Therefore, after the change in scene, they quickly exchanged information about the system voice and made some a.n.a.lysis …
[Successfully disrupted the investigation of the “Penguin’s help” incident]
!!
“Special scenario reward: 400 extra skill points
[Xiong Ji’s hatred towards you +3%]
Those three sentences were the system notifications that w.a.n.g Tanzhi heard when Aoki was captured. In the same second, Feng bujue heard the same notification. However, this time, brother Jue only gained 50 skill points, and Xiong Ji’s hatred toward him only increased by 1%…
Combined with the previous system prompt, he could a.n.a.lyze two patterns: First, the more effort he put in to disrupt the investigation, the more careful he was, the more skill points he would gain. Secondly, the more effort the players put in to help Xiong Ji exonerate himself, the higher the hatred Xiong Ji would have towards them.
“There haven’t been any cases recently. I’m so bored~”
Just as brother Jue and Xiao Tan were about to start a discussion about Xiong Ji’s aggro, rabbit Beauty’s voice suddenly came from behind them.
As Xiong Ji and tu Mei were sitting in the row behind the two players, their conversation could be clearly heard.
“… Just pull your head off a little and take a look, Xiong Ji Jun.” Tu Mei’s tone was very calm when she said the second half of her sentence. She did not seem to be joking at all.
“I … I don’t want to!” Xiong Ji’s face was full of sweat as he ridiculed,”what kind of case is this?”
“Then … You can go to a random corner of the school and turn into a skeleton.” Tu Mei said.
“Don ‘t! You’ll die!” Xiong Ji replied with a sad face.
“Then, let’s turn it into a mummy.” Tu Mei did not seem to understand the main point in Xiong Ji’s words. She continued,”mummies should be fine, right? It’s enough to just change the upper body. ”
“I’ve never heard of that kind of mummy!” Xiong Ji roared.
“Hey, hey, hey, everyone, please pay attention.” At this moment, the Panda teacher appeared on the podium and said loudly to the entire cla.s.s,”I heard that there have been trekkers appearing near the school recently. If anyone sees them, report to the teacher immediately.”
“You … You see! UMEI-chan. ” Xiong Ji seemed to have found a life-saving straw and immediately said to tu Mei,”a case has happened! And it’s a shameless exhibitionist case!”
“The exhibitionist …” Tu Mei turned around calmly and looked at Xiong Ji.”Don’t tell me it’s you?”
“No!” Xiong Ji put on an innocent look and waved his hand to deny it. “Don’t push all the blame on me! Don’t be like this, it’s very rude!”
At that moment, brother Jue and Xiao Tan were repeating the same line in their hearts.”Impolite my a.s.s! It’s you!”
“Yesterday’s victim was meowmei …” The Panda teacher said as he walked to the right. He raised his hand and said,”meowmei, tell us what happened.”
Meowmei was already standing at the edge of the podium, which was the position the teacher was pointing at. After receiving the teacher’s permission, she said in a slightly soft voice,””After school yesterday, Xiong Jijun was wearing nothing and grinning hideously. He followed me all the way to my house.”
Before she could finish her sentence, tu Mei’s eyes turned sharp …
The focus of her gaze naturally s.h.i.+fted to Xiong Ji again.
“Tsk … It’s me again.” Xiong Ji’s innocent face instantly turned wretched.”I can’t help it …” He even laughed.”Please.”
This ‘please’ contained too much information …
Of course, even if he didn’t say anything, the rabbit beauty would have called the police without hesitation.
“Hold on!” Facing this development, Feng bujue could not sit by and do nothing. He suddenly turned around and said to tu Mei,”are you going to call the police again? UMEI-chan. ”
Tu Mei stopped dialing and looked up at brother Jue.””Rashly?” She paused for a moment.”Don’t tell me that under such circ.u.mstances, you still want to say that … Xiong Ji is innocent?”
“That’s right. ” Feng bujue’s expression was serious, and he nodded.
“This can’t be …” Even Xiao Tan, who was standing beside them, felt his confidence waver. He thought to himself, his perverted behavior has already been exposed on the spot … And he’s still going to get away with it?
“Then I’d like to hear it …” Tumei put down her phone and asked curiously,”what kind of reasoning do you have?”
“Teacher!” At this time, brother Jue suddenly stood up, waved his paw, and pointed at the teacher.”Can you let me say a few words to the whole cla.s.s?”
“Sure,” The Panda teacher replied very calmly,”this is a self-study cla.s.s anyway. You can come and say it.”
“Then I won’t be polite.” Feng bujue smiled at that and walked up to the podium without fear.
He stood behind the podium with his hands on the table. Without a word, he scanned the “people” in the cla.s.sroom with his cat eyes.
That aura … He was more like a teacher than a real teacher.
“Dear students!” A moment later, brother Jue opened his mouth.”Let me ask you … Have you ever had such an experience?” His eyes were burning as he continued,”…When you’re fully focused on something, you’ll ignore all the details that have nothing to do with it.”
“There are!” Only one Falcon in the cla.s.sroom responded to him with its fastest and loudest voice. The other students were silent.
“Very good,” he said. Feng bujue replied,”what I want to say is … Yesterday, Xiong Jijun experienced the same situation.” He raised his hand and pointed at Xiong Ji.”Just like Rodin, Archimede, and diogeni … When they focus on one thing, even the threat of death will be ignored.”
“In other words … He was so engrossed in tracking that he forgot to put on his clothes?” Tu Mei added.
“Mao San lang,” The Panda teacher continued,”even if it’s as you said, Xiong Ji-Jun ‘forgot to wear his clothes’, stalking is a perverted act in itself.”
“No, no…” Feng bujue shook his head.”Teacher, you’ve all misunderstood Xiong Jijun … He was not following meowmei-chan, he was protecting her.”
“Holy sh * t …” Even Xiao Tan, who was listening from below, was shocked.”This kind of twisted logic … Can it really hold?”
“As you said, teacher, there have been exhibitionists appearing near the school recently.” On the podium, brother Jue’s evil words continued.”This rumor is already known by everyone, so … When the girls go home alone from school, they must be on tenterhooks.”
As Feng bujue spoke, he turned to look at meowmei.””Meow Mei, I’m not wrong, am I?”
“Uh … That’s right,” Meow Mei nodded.
“Yes, let’s take a look at Xiong Ji Jun again.” Feng bujue pointed at Xiong Ji.”As we all know, he is a bit of a traveler.”
“Why do I feel like he’s more than just biased …” The beautiful rabbit continued softly.
“Don’t interrupt, Usami-chan,” Feng bujue used a fast speed to stop the other party from retorting.”As someone who tends to be a traveler, Xiong Jijun … Should be the one who understands the traveler’s mentality the most. Thus … He felt that he should make use of this unique advantage of his to make some contributions to the students. ”
“In other words … A psychopath with a sense of social responsibility …” Xiao Tan narrowed his eyes and squeezed this sentence out through gritted teeth. He would not feel good if he did not say it out loud.
“Driven by this sense of responsibility, Xiong Ji Jun decided …” Feng bujue continued in an impa.s.sioned and righteous tone,”to take on the responsibility of ‘protecting the female students who walk home alone’.” He faced Xiong Ji and said loudly,”right? Xiong Ji Jun!”
“Eh?” Xiong Ji was stunned by the question.”Is … Is … That so?”
“The truth is out!” “This is Xiong Jijun’s reason for following Meimei home …” Feng bujue explained.”The evil smile on his face is probably a simple smile. Because he is not wearing any clothes, it has been mistaken as an evil smile. As for him being completely naked … It’s purely because his mind was constantly thinking about how to deal with the exhibitionist, and unconsciously … He forgot to put on his clothes. ”
“That’s impossible …” w.a.n.g Tanzhi’s expression changed. He thought to himself, even if this is a universe full of nonsense and logic, it shouldn’t be so easily fooled by this kind of story …
Xiao Tan’s idea was not wrong, but …
“Xiong Ji Jun, so that’s what happened?” After hearing brother Jue’s words, meowmei’s expression changed. She looked at Xiong Ji and said,”I’m … I’m sorry. I misunderstood you!”
“You’re quite impressive, Xiong Ji Jun. I’m seeing you in a new light now. ” Rabbit beauty also turned around and praised Xiong Ji.
A few seconds later, there was a burst of applause in the cla.s.sroom … It seemed that the whole cla.s.s had accepted this setting.
[Successfully disrupted the investigation of the “exhibitionist stalking” incident]
“Special scenario reward: 200 extra skill points
[Xiong Ji’s hatred towards you +5%]
The system’s voice was heard by the two players.
This time, the skill points that Feng bujue received were the same as the ‘letter of the stalker’ incident, but Xiong Ji’s hatred toward him had increased greatly.
On Xiao Tan’s end, he did not gain any skill points or aggro. He only heard the notification that the investigation was disrupted.
“That works …” That was w.a.n.g Tanzhi’s first reaction when he heard the voice message.
“Even this works!” Even Feng bujue felt that his own words were too much. He thought to himself, these guys are almost the same as the people in South Park …
Just as they thought they were about to change the scene again, suddenly, another system voice message appeared for the first time.[Due to successfully disrupting three investigations, the side mission has been triggered.]
