Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

Li Fan felt a little embarrassed. He hadn't meant to harm anyone last time. After all, he had used his talent and stayed on a dungeon NPC for so many times. It would be strange if he didn't go crazy.

After Wuyin finished speaking, she walked back to the classroom, and Li Fan followed closely behind.

Upon entering the classroom, all the children sat quietly in their chairs. There was no one on the teacher's platform, since Teacher Fangfang was still outside, dragging her broken leg as she crawled.

He knew the kindergarten children's personalities very well, and he wanted to try the method of informing them directly about their original personalities to see if it would change anything.

But Wuyin was also cautious. She first walked up to Yangyang, leaned close to his ear, and spoke in a voice that only he could hear.

"You're a crybaby, a mama's boy."

That way, others won't be able to hear his voice. If someone tries to deceive him, this will make him go berserk. Even a berserk, eerie child can handle it.

After he finished speaking, he took two steps back and stared intently at Yangyang in front of him.

Yangyang's expression also changed. He used to have a mechanical smile, but now he showed a hint of surprise.

It seemed that keeping the same expression for so long had made his face stiff; his features were slightly distorted, but it was clear that he was about to cry.

His brows furrowed deeply, his lips trembled, and soon after, his mouth turned down, and he began to wail loudly.

"Waaaaah...Mommy..."

I used to get annoyed when I heard children crying while watching cartoons, but now, hearing this familiar crying sound, I've never felt it was so pleasant.

Tears streamed down Yangyang's face. Wuyin could clearly see that his black pupils were slowly shrinking and the whites of his eyes were gradually returning to normal. Soon after, his eyes returned to their normal appearance.

Suddenly, a cool breeze seemed to blow through my dull and drowsy head, which was very refreshing.

Silent Spirit Value: 40%.

He was overjoyed. His mental state had been gradually decreasing over the past few days, almost reaching 20%. This sudden increase of 20% meant he could at least last for two more days.

So he came to Tiaotiao again and said once more, "You're so talkative."

Jumping's pupils gradually shrank, and he suddenly jumped up from the chair, knocking it over, and said excitedly.

"How did you know? Otherwise, why would my name be Jumpy?"

Silent Spirit Value: 60%.

After waking up Shuai Zi and Xiao Mei again, his mental energy level reached 100%. The remaining children could be saved for the next time to boost their mental energy.

At this moment, Wuyin's mind was very clear. He felt that he could sort out all the current clues, but the classroom was a bit noisy, making it difficult for him to concentrate.

He looked at the noisy classroom; he was old enough to understand both the bizarre and the normal.

The afternoon flew by, and when it was time to leave school, many parents came to pick up their children. Wuyin discovered a shocking scene at the entrance of the teaching building.

The parents seemed oblivious to the three corpses on the ground, stepping directly over them.

The corpses on the ground had been trampled into a bloody pulp, standing on the feet of passersby.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoli also saw Wuyin and waved as she walked towards him. Just as Zhang Xiaoli was about to step on the fleshy mess on the ground, Wuyin quickly bypassed the corpse and took her hand.

"Hey, why are you so excited after school today? Did something fun happen?"

Zhang Xiaoli looked at Wuyin with a smile, seemingly very curious.

Wu Yin quickly made up a lie to get by, but then he suddenly realized something.

Chapter 56 Connecting Clues

Actually, from a purely objective perspective, Zhang Xiaoli was quite good to him during the day.

Although she wanted to eat him up and was too lazy to care about the little monster, she still took him to and from school every day, cooked him delicious meals, and occasionally chatted about interesting things at school.

Thinking about this, Wuyin was startled. His mental energy was already full, so why did he still have such terrifying thoughts and even feel that the eerie was good for him?

Could this instance subtly alter one's mind?

Perhaps it's because he hasn't experienced the feeling of having a mother in a long time.

When Tu held the real Zhang Xiaoli's body and cried, he felt only self-blame, not empathy.

The evening meal was equally sumptuous. After washing up and returning to his bedroom to turn off the lights and rest, he stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

He asked Li Fan, who was leaning against the wall next to him.

"Do you have someone you care about deeply on Earth?"

Li Fan slowly opened his closed eyes and asked.

"Why are you saying this? You can easily lose your life in this weird world, and there aren't any normal people here. Of course I want to go back to Earth."

Wuyin: "It's nothing, I was just asking casually."

The air fell silent for a moment.

Li Fan turned his head slightly to look at the moon outside the window, lost in some kind of memory.

"I have people I care about, but I don't know if they still care about me."

I was born in a poor village. I didn't do well in school and was quite mischievous. But my younger brother was different. He was smart, obedient, and had a sweet tongue. My parents gradually focused their attention on him.

Later, I ran away on a whim to work and support myself through school. Gradually, I lost contact with my parents, and they never contacted me again.

Looking back now, I was pretty foolish. What if things were different now if I hadn't run away from home in a fit of pique?

Although my parents often hit and scolded me back then, I vaguely remember that when I was very young, they also doted on me as much as they doted on my younger brother.

He suddenly stopped talking at this point.

Wuyin turned her head to look at him, and saw a glimmer of light reflected in his eyes under the moonlight.

Li Fan forced back the tears that were about to fall before pretending to be indifferent and said.

"If I go back, they'll probably be really happy to see me."

Wuyin remained silent for a long time before finally speaking softly.

"Yes, go to sleep."

After saying this, he gently closed his eyes, but his mind was racing, trying to process all the clues he had discovered.

But what he couldn't understand the most was what Tu said.

Is the super S-class ghost story really that simple? He had a feeling that Tu was lying, but Tu's expression seemed very serious.

Moreover, he had tried the method of finding out the true nature of the children in the Little Bean Class, and it proved that what he said was right, which helped him a lot.

But Wuyin always felt that something was wrong.

Once we find the monster in this dungeon, can we team up to kill it and clear the dungeon?

No, there must be something missing. He hasn't noticed what it is yet. If this world is really just about growing fruit and then eating it, then why is the office constantly being refreshed?

Yeah, why does the office keep getting refreshed?

If Brother Jiankang and Teacher Fangfang are in there, does that mean they will reappear in the classroom tomorrow?

If that's the case, then answering questions in class every day has already driven Wuyin to the brink of despair.

Certainly, there must be some secret he hasn't discovered yet.

……

In the morning, Wuyin brushed her teeth and washed up as usual before heading to kindergarten.

There were no monsters last night, and I felt like something was missing.

When they arrived at the classroom, not only was Brother Jiankang back in the classroom, but even Prince had returned to his seat.

Is this a new fruit?

Also, walk around.

There's one more person farming sanity points.

Before class, Wuyin hinted to Li Fan to go to the office to look for some more clues, but he wouldn't go today, as it was still too dangerous.

This morning, the class was teaching junior high school material. During the question-and-answer session, Brother Jiankang called on Yangyang to answer a question, but he couldn't answer and burst into tears.

Health Brother's expression suddenly turned serious as he slowly walked towards Yangyang.

But the other three children stood up; these three were the same three that Wuyin had woken up yesterday.

They spoke in unison.

"Brother Health, this is too difficult, none of us know how to do it."

When Health Brother heard these words, his expression seemed to soften a little, but his tone was still cold.

"Then I'll go over yesterday's content again and review it with you. You need to listen carefully."

Although the students, whose true nature had been awakened, still couldn't understand yesterday's lessons and were completely confused during class, Brother Health didn't ask any more questions, and the morning classes passed just like that.

Wu Yin felt that Health Brother didn't seem like a machine with a completely programmed sequence. It was as if, after the little monster died yesterday, these strange occurrences were filled with "human touch".

At noon, Li Fan sat down next to Wu Yin and spoke softly.

"Same as yesterday, nothing found. But I did notice one detail: there's not much food in the office. How did that rat get so fat?"

Wuyin suddenly raised her head and looked at him with admiration.

"You actually brought up something I hadn't even thought of. Impressive."

Li Fan scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly. Because Wu Yin had encouraged him to speak his mind yesterday, he was observing and thinking extra carefully in the office this time.

He never expected that he, who had always been labeled as a bad kid and a naughty troublemaker, would one day receive praise.

Wuyin became even more certain of something; it seemed he could connect these clues.

Although rats are omnivorous, they cannot survive by gnawing on books and wood.

Wuyin initially thought it was because the rats could keep refreshing, but upon closer inspection, even if they could keep refreshing, they wouldn't grow that fat.

What exactly did he eat in the office?

A glint of light flashed in Wuyin's eyes. If that were the case, then it was almost certain...

A huge bug has appeared in this world!

Whether it's a programmed machine suddenly developing feelings, an office that keeps refreshing endlessly, or that fat rat.

Of course, this is a bit abstract, since the world of ghost stories is very different from the real world.
