Chapter 189. 186. Restless Night

The commotion lasted for more than an hour before it ended. The students of Xiujin Academy were arranged into new rooms, and someone specially assigned to help them watch the night.

It didn't affect the boys, they fell asleep under the quilt, but the girls couldn't fall asleep at all, and a third-year student even covered her face and sobbed.

Losing the senior sister who is the main player, their women's team's chances of winning tomorrow will be cut by at least half, basically just going through the motions.

This kind of thing is okay for the first and second graders, after all, they can participate in the war for another year next year.But for the third graders, this is the last chance to participate in the Jade Dragon Banner in their life, but it can only end in such a regrettable ending.

After dealing with the trivial matters, Kyushu Makoto met Eliza who was about to go back to sleep.

"You did a good job, at least you held on to the boys." Eliza did not hesitate to praise this time, but her voice was tired and sounded weak.

"What kind of monster is that?" Makoto Kyushu couldn't hold back his curiosity.

"Who knows, I told you not to worry~" Eliza shrugged and said indifferently: "Go to bed early, isn't there a game tomorrow?"

"Why don't I care?" Jiuzhou Cheng folded his arms and said in a deep voice, "I'm a victim now, don't I even have the right to know the truth?"

"But no matter how busy you are, you won't be paid." Eliza explained again helplessly:
"In this case, you are a protected civilian, and I am the spiritual master responsible for protecting you. Please figure out your position, you stone man who can't turn his head."

"But since it missed this time, it might hold a grudge against me and seek revenge on me. Do you want me to turn a blind eye to it and know nothing about it, and then maybe it will catch me by surprise tomorrow and die suddenly on the street? ?" Kyushu Makoto was also quite displeased when encountering such a mess in the middle of the night, and was also spoken with this attitude by his former colleagues, and urged with a vibrating voice:
"I don't care if I get paid or not, you can take all the money and points if you want, and tell me everything you know!"

"." Eliza hesitated for a moment, and could only lower her head and sigh: "Hongzhong, let me ask you, what do you think is the motive of that monster's behavior?"

"It's obviously a monster, but it only attacks contestants participating in the Jade Dragon Banner." Jiuzhou Cheng thought for a moment, and said:

"Could it be the wraith of a certain kendo athlete, because he never won the championship in the Yulong Banner competition before his death, so he started to hate other contestants?"

"Puff." Eliza covered her mouth and trembled, making a sound that was about to laugh:

"This guess is not bad, but there is a high probability that the spirit species is a spider monster. And there is another point, the logic of the behavior of the wraith is very simple, and it can only act by simple obsession. But this monster specifically picks The players who excelled in the Jade Dragon Banner competition are already far superior to Wraith in terms of intelligence."

"Also..." Jiuzhou Cheng deeply agreed with this.The vengeful spirit "Yuki Quicksilver" they encountered before, her logic of action is "attacking male high school students", and she can't think about anything else.

"Then why do you think this is?" Makoto Kyushu didn't want to continue guessing: "Why are monsters interested in human games and use this method to interfere in games?"

"Maybe it's not the monsters who are interested in the Jade Dragon Banner event, but the people behind it." Eliza said pretending to be mysterious.

"The person behind it?"

"That's right, we suspect that the spider monster signed a contract with humans and was ordered to attack the contestants." Eliza continued:

"If the speculation turns out to be true, we're not just dealing with a monster, but the "supernatural perpetrator" behind it. "

"But why did they do this?" Jiuzhou Cheng asked again.

"It may be to help a certain player win the championship, or it may be that someone is using the Jade Dragon Flag competition to gamble and secretly manipulate the result of the competition." Eliza yawned sleepily again:
"The current intelligence is extremely limited, and the investigation is like finding a needle in a haystack. Moreover, we have to take care of the security work of the game, so we don't have time to find the murderer."

"So, are you not going to catch the murderer from the beginning?" Jiuzhou Cheng slightly closed his eyes.

"If you go all out to catch the murderer and neglect the security work of the competition venue, it will be a decision that is not worth the candle." Eliza shook her head regretfully:
"According to the current situation, we can only let the players continue to be attacked, and declare that they all encountered accidents "by chance". "

"Then why don't you gather all the contestants in one place and protect them together?" Jiuzhou Cheng asked again.

"Hmph, do you think other people haven't thought of it?" Eliza sighed softly and asked one after another:

"But what reason do we use to force them to gather? Where can we accommodate so many contestants? In case some contestants refuse to cooperate with excuses such as "human rights", "personal freedom" and "personal privacy", what should we do? How to convince them? "

"." Makoto Jiuzhou sighed, clenched his fists and thumped the wall: "But you also saw it, the girl just now was in pain and almost wanted to die. If you let the murderer continue to harm other people, it would be too irresponsible! "

"Irresponsible~?" Eliza tilted her head slightly:
"Our responsibility is to make the event look calm on the surface. As for how undercurrents are simmering in the dark, there is nothing we can do."

"." Jiuzhou Cheng lowered his head and fell silent for a while, the river of anger surging in his mind.

As a victim who has just been attacked, Kyushu Makoto feels extremely angry at the official's rotten handling attitude.But he couldn't get mad at Eliza, she was just a bad worker after all.Even if her superiors don't support her, she can't help.

Eliza also became hesitant when she saw him suffocating.

"Well, I know you're not happy. Who told us to be teammates, I understand your thoughts." Elisa patted Kyushu's shoulder lightly, as if forcing out a few unseemly words Words of comfort:
"But not everyone in this world is as nosy as you are. It's better to say that people like you are freaks. If you are worried about your own safety, I will make an exception and let you stay by my side for these two days. But beforehand Say yes, I only protect you alone."

"." Jiuzhou Cheng took a long breath, with a complex expression on his face: "I'll go back first, you should also rest early."

Back in the boy's room, Kyushu Makoto was completely sleepless.But there are still many things to be busy tomorrow, so I have to hold two knives in my hands, and lie back under the bed to sleep with a manic mood.

The boys in the same dormitory were not surprised to see Kyushu Cheng like this, but inexplicably felt a sense of security.

Although they didn't know what happened at all, but thanks to Jiuzhou Cheng who killed the weird big spider and woke them up, otherwise, some people in the boys team might be bitten by poisonous insects and forced to give up the game.

Looking at the already bright sky outside the window, Jiuzhou Cheng lay on the bed and sighed tiredly, patiently spent this restless night.
