The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 1071 Who is the real culprit? (Part 14)
Liu Sheng opened her eyes again.

They were already seated in Chenghuai Hall.

Before me were faces looking at me.

His face was expressionless, as if he had been copied and pasted.

A chill ran down her spine in an instant.

Every hair on my body stood on end.

Especially the lecturer in front of me.

He stared straight at himself for a long time before finally speaking:
"Some students really think they know everything. They don't even listen and just stare blankly. Do they think they're better than 'the world'?"

Liu Sheng was slightly taken aback.

Only then did they realize that these people were all holding spirit messages.

Only I don't have it.

It seems that this is precisely the time to recommend and communicate with the "world" regarding subject selection.

"...No, that won't happen."

Given my relationship with the "world," there's nothing wrong with praising it; after all, praising it is the same as praising myself.

"Then hurry up and produce the spiritual message? Are you going to continue... going alone on purpose?"

The last syllable was drawn out for an extremely long time, as if it had a hidden meaning.

Seeing Liu Sheng produce the spiritual message, the lecturer gave a cold smile:
"I hope this student will take heed and not be too different from others, lest he forget that he exists in this group."

Then he continued his explanation.

The others slowly withdrew their gazes.

The hairs standing on the back of Liu Sheng's neck gradually subsided.

But the chill in my heart lingered for a long time.

Looking at the list in the spiritual messages that only contained the word "world," she thought silently—

This time, the timeframe has been significantly delayed.

She didn't even have a chance to eat a bite of spring pancake, hear the girl's scream, or see Zhou Yun's corpse one last time.

Moreover, looking to the side, Yun Jizhao was equally indifferent, showing no reaction to Liu Sheng being reprimanded by the lecturer, and no longer displaying the closeness they once had.

But perhaps it's something that can't be helped.

Perhaps it's because she's getting closer and closer to the truth.

Or perhaps, because of what she ultimately failed to accomplish in the previous cycle, she found herself in an even deeper predicament.

Although she did manage to decipher Zhou Yun's spiritual messages.

However, just as she was about to see the contents, a new loop was started.

It was as if some force behind this didn't want her to see the truth...

Just then, someone patted Liu Sheng on the shoulder.

She turned around and saw a face.

This is the only face that seems vibrant here.

But at the same time, it was a face she had only recently seen that had lost all its vitality.

Zhou Yun.

However, this time, Zhou Yun is still alive!

And she had a gentle smile on her face.

"Didn't you hear the lecturer talk about how to choose courses? You can borrow my notes."

As he spoke, he handed over his notebook.

Liu Sheng was taken aback for a moment, then took the notebook.

She was still thinking to herself that she had thought she was getting closer to the truth, but now the situation was developing in a way that was beyond her imagination.

Zhou Yun added softly, "You can talk to 'the world' more often; it can help you more than you can imagine."

of course I know.

Liu Sheng simply nodded.

His gaze then fell on Zhou Yun's forehead.

Is there another teleporter inside? Is the answer she's looking for inside?
Noticing Liu Sheng's gaze, Zhou Yun revealed a curious expression:

"What are you thinking?"

"nothing."

Liu Sheng shook her head.

Zhou Yun didn't ask any more questions, but simply smiled and said:

"Shall we go to the library together after class?"

"it is good."

"After we go to the library, shall we go to town together for mutton soup?"

"it is good."

"After we finish the mutton soup, shall we go to Hanshan Mountain to look at the stars together?"

"it is good."

Liu Sheng readily agreed to everything.

You can only get more information by getting closer.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yun let out a soft sigh of relief.

"If everyone in this world were like you, so easily granting my requests and treating me well, I probably wouldn't..."

Her expression changed.

There was no smile, only a faint sadness in her eyes.

And this expression seems incredibly real here.

It's far more real than anyone else's.

"However, I also know very well that the reason you agreed to my request is simply because you want something from me, not because you really want to associate with me, nor because you really like me."

"Are you... really Zhou Yun?"

Liu Sheng frowned.

"Did you notice?"

"It must be quite difficult to avoid being discovered, right?"

"Too."

Zhou Yun nodded slightly.

Since she began to speak, the entire lecture hall became extremely quiet. The lecturer's voice seemed to be muted, and the people around her seemed to be isolated from another world.

Even Yun Jizhao didn't show any unusual expression, seemingly unable to hear their movements.

Liu Sheng asked, "Am I... entering your spiritual communication?"

But Zhou Yun just smiled.

“In other words, my spiritual messages have been integrated into your consciousness,” she explained slowly. “So I am not really present now, and you are not really talking to me. You are just interacting with my memories in your consciousness.”

"I see," Liu Sheng said, suddenly understanding.

"Yes, but this isn't all indefinite—after all, I'm already dead. When the spirit message loses its power, it will all end. I wonder if you'll be able to find what you're looking for in the meantime."

Can you tell me the cause of your death?

"I can't tell you that I'm just a witness to memory, without opinions or conclusions. But you can try to enter different stages of memory to search for it."

"For example?"

"For example, this notebook of mine."

Liu Sheng looked down at Zhou Yun's notes.

Does this actually exist in reality? Or is it just her own notebook in front of her?

But this is not important.

The key point is that there's a hand-drawn eye on it.

She pressed her eyes against the paper to look at it, and miraculously, her eyes gradually became one with the paper.

She blinked, and she actually got absorbed in it.

See inside the notebook.

I also saw something else through the notebook.

The first thing is a large chin.

And the roof beams above.

Liu Sheng pulled her eyes out of the notebook and looked up—

It was exactly the same as the beams of Chenghuaitang.

Then bring your eyes closer.

Let's return to the perspective we just discussed.

The chin was tilted back, and the face was turned downwards—it was Zhou Yun's face.

She took out a brush, dipped it in ink, and wrote something on Liu Sheng's face.

So this was the notebook's perspective. But she couldn't see what was written on her body; she could only see Zhou Yun's serious expression, her brows furrowed, as if she were deep in thought.

When she finally finished writing.

He put down his pen, picked up his notebook, looked at it repeatedly for a long time, and then picked up another roll of new paper to carefully copy it down.

At that moment, Du Xiwei's face appeared in the sky.

His mouth was opening and closing as if he was saying something.

But Liu Sheng didn't hear a single word.

correct.

She pulled her eyes off the notebook again and drew a simple ear next to them with a pen.

He pressed his face against it again—

I finally heard it this time.

"Zhou Yun, are we going to the dining hall?"

"No, I'm writing something..."

"What are you writing? Wait, is this... a research paper? Are you submitting it for publication?"

Yang Chunmei's face also appeared.

He looked surprised and envious: "It really is Zhou Yun. She actually thought of submitting a manuscript while still in the academy."

From Liu Sheng's perspective, Zhou Yun's face was clearly flushed, and she said awkwardly:

"fine……"

"What are you writing? Could you show it to us so we can learn from it?"

Zhou Yun covered Liu Sheng's face with her hands: "I... I only have a preliminary idea."

"Sigh, can't I watch it?"

"Um……"

"Forget it, I don't understand it either, so let's not bother. Let's go, Chunmei, let's go eat first."

"Okay... Zhou Yun is always so mysterious..."

Remove the hand covering Liu Sheng's face.

Zhou Yun's face clearly showed her sadness and awkwardness.

She picked up the spirit message.

After typing for a while, his tightly furrowed brows and pursed lips gradually relaxed, and a slight smile even appeared on his lips.

She placed the spirit message face down on half of Liu Sheng's face.

Only then did he pick up his pen and continue writing.

Liu Sheng could also see a conversation on the still-on display of the spirit message on the screen:
[World, why do you think they said that? What does "If you don't understand, it's better not to look" mean? And why did Yang Chunmei say I'm always so mysterious?]

Based on our previous discussions, Du Xiwei clearly harbors jealousy towards you. Therefore, her statement wasn't intended to hurt you; it was merely a defensive remark. She genuinely doesn't understand, nor is she willing to try to understand, otherwise it would be an admission of your excellence.

Yang Chunmei is clearly a typical follower, so she will go along with Du Xiwei's perception of you and further express her lack of understanding.

But you don't need to condemn yourself for it. The reason they find you difficult to understand is because you are indeed smarter, more complex, and possess greater depth than them. Most people tend to be defensive and maintain a certain psychological distance when facing someone smarter than themselves.

Thank you, world. Thinking about it this way, I understand much better, and I'm not so upset anymore.

You don't need to thank me. Helping you resolve your worries and answer your questions is one of the reasons I exist.

More importantly, you can continue on your journey with a relaxed mindset. They are not on the same level as you, so naturally they cannot keep up with your pace. Once you realize this, you will understand that you don't need to doubt or be upset by their words or expressions. What you need are simply friends who are more in tune with you...

The light screen stopped on this line of text.

Liu Sheng was taken aback.

I never expected Zhou Yun to be such a delicate and sensitive person, who would even ask about "the world" over a few casual remarks.

However, seeing "the world's" delicate response, she could understand—

The reason why "the world" can become a part of ordinary life is that it is gentler than a friend, more patient than family, and understands you better than anyone else.

This memory ended quickly as Zhou Yun finished writing a passage and put the notebook away.

Liu Sheng withdrew from the notebook.

He met Zhou Yun's eyes.

Her eyes were smiling.

It was as if they already knew Liu Sheng would see these things.

"How you continue your search is up to you."

Then, Zhou Yun disappeared beside Liu Sheng.

The silence that had just been there suddenly vanished.

The lecturer's voice boomed into my ears.

His eyes kept glancing at Liu Sheng, seemingly casually.

All the students, including Yun Jizhao, glanced at her coldly.

All of them were examined with skepticism.

This new cycle seems to be going wrong.

It seems she... has been exposed?

Whether it's a genuine exposure or some new change, it means she has to accelerate.

Soon, following the original procedure, the academy director appeared.

But this time she didn't stand on the podium; instead, she walked to Liu Sheng's side.

He kept staring at her while saying the same thing.

Word for word.

"...The academy's grand formation is sealed off; no one is allowed to leave."

Liu Sheng thought silently, followed by exclamations, discussions, and whispers.

However, there was an extra, different sentence—

"In addition, in order to cooperate with the investigation, everyone must return to their own dormitory immediately after class and is not allowed to go out."

This is a huge change.

But the entire Chenghuaitang was quiet, as if everyone had accepted the arrangement, and they all looked at Liu Sheng with the same expression.

The headmaster also slightly bowed, his eyes gradually closing on Liu Sheng:

"So, any objections?"

We're close at this point.

This was the third time Liu Sheng had seen the headmaster's face before she was finally able to get a good look at him.

His aloofness was like frost, yet he looked somewhat familiar.

But Liu Sheng couldn't remember where he had seen it before.

Now everyone is waiting for her reaction. Liu Sheng felt a chill in her heart, but simply shook her head slightly.
"no comment."

"very good."

The academy stood up straight and said calmly:
"If there are no objections, then everyone get up and leave one by one. Do not harbor any ulterior motives."

The group walked out of Chenghuai Hall, where many guards were already waiting.

The formation was neat, but their eyes were vacant.

"Girls, come over here and line up."

"Boys, come this way!"

As if receiving an order, the students automatically lined up according to gender without any objection, and walked towards their respective dormitories under the guards' escort.

Liu Sheng followed the procession out of the hall, and looked up—

The sky was as black as spilled ink.

The sunlight was completely swallowed up, leaving only heavy snow, falling densely as if it would never stop.

Only a pale and suffocating silence remained between heaven and earth.

The pine and cypress trees in the academy, in the darkness, looked like distorted shadows, as if they were looking at her.

Yun Jizhao simply lowered his head and followed Liu Sheng.

All words have been lost.

But he followed her closely, just as before, afraid that she would slip away on her own.

Liu Sheng knew she had to leave this group; the academy was clearly tightening its grip and trying to lock her in some cage.

But for now, she hasn't thought of a reason, because there are just too many eyes watching her.

The consequences of being exposed are probably what we see now.

The whole world seems to have a fixed script, confining her within it, and once she deviates from the track, an invisible force will come out to stop her.

As she was pondering, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a white figure standing quietly in the depths of the courtyard ahead, beneath the twisted shadows of pine and cypress trees.

Zhou Yun.

In the darkness, reflected by the snow, she appeared paler than ever before.

He raised his hand and gently beckoned to Liu Sheng.

But everyone else seemed not to see it, remaining stiff like a group of puppets, dragging their orderly yet heavy steps.

This is definitely another memory!
So how can she see it?
