He needs to go early; something like yesterday can't happen again.

When Meng Yang picked up Lu Fei at school, she seemed a bit down and absent-minded. Meng Yang asked her a couple of questions, but she didn't want to say much.

Girls always have their own worries as they grow up, so Meng Yang didn't pry too much.

Lu Fei seemed troubled; I had a bad feeling about it.

What's your premonition?

I have a feeling she's about to betray us again; she was like this before she turned herself in last time.

"Oh, come to think of it, she seemed hesitant to speak last time too."

[Okay, if she turns herself in, Meng Yang is finished again.]

Even if no evidence is found, Meng Yang will definitely be detained and interrogated this time. By the time he gets out, the show will be over.

[Holy crap! Zhang Cheng, I'm XXXX!]

[Zhang Cheng, you damn gay bastard, you're up to your dirty tricks again, I'll fucking kill you!]

[Zhang Cheng XXXXXX!]

...

In the control room, Zhang Cheng pursed his lips tightly.

Damn it!

You're the gay one, your whole family is gay!

I didn't ask her to turn herself in, so why are you trying to pin this on me?

It was clearly Lu Fei who didn't want to talk.

...

As they passed the boiler room, the two of them looked over at the same time.

The boiler room started emitting smoke again as usual, and a new boiler operator was standing at the door.

Upon seeing the man, Lu Fei froze and stopped.

"Little sister, what's wrong?"

Meng Yang asked.

"Brother, that person looks like Xiaorou's father."

"what?"

Meng Yang followed the gaze and looked over. He didn't recognize Xiao Rou's father, but it felt a bit strange that Xiao Rou's father suddenly appeared at the school at this time.

"Brother, Xiaorou's father's name is Yang Lin. He's been investigating Xiaorou's death lately and has asked me about it several times. I never expected him to become a boiler operator."

Meng Yang frowned. He originally thought that Xiao Rou's case was just a beginning, telling him that there were bad people on campus.

But Yang Lin suddenly appeared on campus. Does this mean that Yang Lin also has an identity?

There are quite a few people in the live stream who share the same idea as Meng Yang.

See? I told you, Yang Lin is definitely the hidden figure.

Yes, they wouldn't have been assigned to the school boiler room if they weren't a hidden character.

[I understand. The trigger condition for the hidden character is Brother Li's death. With Brother Li dead, the slot becomes empty, and he naturally becomes active.]

[Liang Jiahui is a veteran actor, and he always plays the cunning type. This school is in trouble again; the principal's hair is about to turn bald.]

[Heh heh, the slaughter has begun!]

Do you think he might launch an indiscriminate retaliation?

That's called a retaliatory social personality disorder. It's not common, but if you're investigating your daughter's death, sometimes you'll definitely have to resort to some methods.

[A veteran actor + hatred + boiler – a perfect match! From now on, no one will know what they're boiling the water for when they shower.]

[Ugh! The person upstairs is disgusting!]

...

Xiao Rou's matter was none of Lu Fei's business, so Meng Yang didn't pay much attention to it.

Throughout the journey, Lu Fei remained hesitant and reluctant to speak.

Back home, Meng Yang couldn't hold back any longer, so he pulled Lu Fei down to sit with him.

"Little sister, are you hiding something from me? Are you going to turn yourself in again?"

[Pfft! Hahaha, Meng Yang thinks so too.]

That question is brimming with helplessness and resentment.

[That's right. You try so hard to cover it up, but then people stab you in the back. Who can stand that?]

[It's only because of Lu Fei; if it were anyone else, given Meng Yang's temper, he would have chopped her up and burned her long ago.]

...

Seeing Meng Yang's serious questioning, Lu Fei knew she couldn't avoid it anymore. She pouted, her eyes slightly red.

"Brother, I originally wanted to keep it a secret from you."

"Where are you going? You have to tell me everything, don't make decisions on your own." Meng Yang's tone rose a few notches.

Seeing that Meng Yang seemed genuinely angry, Lu Fei took out her phone, opened the message, and handed it to him.

"That's it, he saw us."

The phone displayed a message:

I saw what happened between you and your brother. Come to my house alone at 10 PM tonight, or I'll call the police.

A location was also provided below.

The sender of the message clearly wrote the three characters "Chen Sanfu".

Who is Chen Sanfu?

[A new character?]

[...Chen Sanfu, the character Qin Wei played, you guys are really something.]

[Damn, I might as well just sign it as Qin Wei.]

"Brother, this is a TV show; everyone has character names."

Qin Wei really did make his move, sending Lu Fei over that night. I knew this guy wasn't a good person.

I bought five little blue pills and am just waiting to use them.

No wonder Lu Fei didn't say anything; it turns out she really wanted to go.

It seems Meng Yang misunderstood Lu Fei.

[Zhang Cheng: Don't you feel like you've wronged me? I've been cursing all day.]

...

After reading the message, Meng Yang affectionately ruffled Lu Fei's hair.

"Silly sister, why didn't you tell me about this?"

Lu Fei's eyes reddened. "What good will it do to tell you? He saw it. If he calls the police, you'll definitely be arrested. I don't want you to be arrested."

"So you're planning to go with him?"

Meng Yang rolled his eyes at her.

After saying that, seeing Lu Fei's pitiful appearance, he couldn't bear to scold her anymore.

"Alright, let's eat first. You can't go tonight. I'll handle things." Meng Yang said in a commanding tone.

"Oh, brother, if I don't go, he really will call the police. He's not a good person."

"I know, eating comes first."

Meng Yang calmly stood up, went into the kitchen and started cooking, as if it were no big deal at all.

Seeing Meng Yang's calm and composed demeanor, Lu Fei felt inexplicably at ease.

[Impressive! Impressive! If my boyfriend were even half as emotionally stable as Meng Yang, we would have been married long ago.]

[To the person upstairs, please tell your story.]

It's so good to have someone like that around; no matter how big the problem, you won't panic.

[My emotions are stable, but that doesn't solve the problem. My husband is like that; no matter how much I yell at him, he doesn't get angry, but after I'm done yelling, he goes back to his old ways. What's the point?]

[That's very useful; at least you've vented your emotions, which is good for your health, sister.]

I reckon Meng Yang is already plotting how to kill someone.

[Given Meng Yang's personality, it is indeed possible. However, it's already 6 o'clock, and there are still 4 hours until 10 o'clock. Is he confident that he can kill someone without getting caught?]

[What's there to be afraid of? It's already the fourth day. At worst, we can just run away. Anyway, Brother Li is dead, Qin Wei is dead, so Lu Fei will definitely be safe. We just need to get through these 11 days.]

"You're overthinking it. If it were me, anyone who dared to threaten my sister, I'd go up there and beat them up first."
