Putong!
The iron-toothed wolf fell from her back, and Bai Yu felt cold.
She knew Shen Zhe's grades very well. Shen Zhe was a student who made common sense mistakes and who tossed coins when the questions were slightly harder. However, he had given an exact answer that time…
Did he know about the crack on the mountain that was buried in the snow?
Even though he did, how could he have known that the iron-toothed wolves on Mount Thorn were united by a wolf king, or the accidents that happened during her escape?
There would've been errors if she had killed one more iron-toothed wolves or stayed in the cave for one moment longer!
However, the result turned out to be absolutely the same!
It was certainly bloodcurdling.
"It seems that I really need to talk to him!"
Taking a few deep breaths to soothe her shock, Bai Yu secretly nodded.
She had thought that Shen Zhe would turn into an ordinary person after that semester and have no interaction with her anymore. But he had distinguished himself!
What happened to him exactly? She really needed to talk to him to find out.
"Ms. Bai, why are you here? Weren't you on a field trip?"
Director Li looked at Bai Yu in confusion as she walked into the office.
"It's already done. Here's the result…" Bai Yu handed over the record.
The result had to be submitted as the conclusion of each field trip.
Stunned, Director Li read the result, "You crossed Mount Thorn in four hours? That's… That's…"
Obviously, he couldn't believe it, either.
"This is what happened…"
Bai Yu told her story.
"There's a wolf king to lead the iron-toothed wolves, and a crack on the back of Mount Thorn?" Director Li listened in astonishment and picked up the guidance book before he asked curiously, "How did you notice the different answer on the guidance book?"
"A student gave a different answer. I checked the guidance book and discovered that it had changed…" Bai Yu explained.
"A student?" Director Li was dazed.
"Yes. His result was exactly as the answer on the guidance book!" Bai Yu nodded.
Shocked, Director Li asked, "Who is it? Ling Xueru or Cui Xiao?"
They were the best students in Class Three. He thought of them first.
"Neither… It's a little bit strange. I need to investigate. I'll report it to you after everything is found out…"
Bai Yu shook her head and didn't mention Shen Zhe's name.
While Ling Xueru was famous as a top ten student, Shen Zhe was even better known than she was!
Too many teachers had criticized him for his poor grades. Director Li wouldn't believe it if Bai Yu said that the answer had been given by him. Even she couldn't really believe it. She intended to ask for more details before she revealed it.
…
Shen Zhe returned to his dormitory.
"It seems that the pencil has nothing to do with good things…"
With mixed feelings, he reached that depressing conclusion.
After he left Wang Qing, he did a few more good things, such as returning what he picked up to its owner, helping lost kids find their parents, etc.
But the pencil never showed up. It seemed unrelated with good things.
"Fine. I'll study it tomorrow. I can read some books in the library. There must be a way…"
The notebook in his head was still. It showed no response, no matter how he summoned it. Shen Zhe decided to let it go.
With the new herbs and the new devices, he could refine the herbs first and see if he could further improve his body.
He returned to the refining room.
That time, he was well prepared with masks and goggles. He also had an apron and a chef's hat to prevent him from being smoked.
"Let's start!"
He placed the griddle on the furnace again and added the herbs.
It was much easier that time with his experience. After two hours, five bowls of gold liquid were made.
Not in a hurry to find Zhao Chen and his friends, he returned to the dormitory and continued polishing his body.
The herb liquid was digested, but his body seemed to have developed a resistance for it and couldn't grow further.
"It seems that the seventh stage is truly a bottleneck!"
He shook his head helplessly.
"I still need the pencil…"
Shen Zhe was frustrated after getting nothing from the practice.
The seventh stage was already the peak. It was unacceptable for an obsessive-compulsive patient.
He needed to see if he could change his body quality with the pencil.
Keeping one bowl of the herb liquid for himself, he packed up the other three bowls and went to Zhao Chen's dormitory.
In any case, they had been terribly wounded because of him. As their friend, he should make up for it.
Soon, he reached the dormitory.
Same as him, Zhao Chen's roommates had all fled, and he was left alone in the dormitory.
At that moment, Zhao Chen was lying on his bed and resting.
"What has brought you here?"
Zhao Chen rose in a hurry after he saw Shen Zhe.
"I said that I would help you treat your wounds and polish your body. Here you are!"
With a smile, Shen Zhe handed over a bottle of herb liquid.
"Herb liquid?" Zhao Chen looked at it in confusion and asked, "Did you make it yourself?"
"Yes!" Shen Zhe nodded.
There was nothing to deny.
"Well…" Zhao Chen said, his face twitching, "I'd rather not. I've already taken medications, and I'll probably be fine in a day or two. Thank you for your offer, though…"
When they studied refining, Shen Zhe gave a dog the drug he had made, and the dog died the most miserable death soon after.
Later, whenever rats appeared in the dormitory, he would put the herb liquid he had made in a corner, and the rats were killed every time.
The guy's grades were even worse than Zhao Chen's. Zhao Chen certainly didn't dare to take the drug he had concocted.
"What's the meaning of this?"
Shen Zhe was angry since Zhao Chen had refused him.
The drug that he had made through hard work with the herbs that he demanded while enduring the greasy smoke had just been despised…
"Nothing… It's just that I don't want to die just yet…"
Zhao Chen smiled in embarrassment.
Although inheriting billions and marrying dozens of beautiful girls could be hard and humiliating, he would at least be alive. If he took Shen Zhe's drug… would he die as fast as the rats in the dormitory?
"Shut up and cut the crap! You will take whatever I give to you!"
Shen Zhe's obsessive-compulsive disorder took place. He stepped forward, grabbed Zhao Chen's mouth, and opened the bottle.
"What are you doing? Let go of me! Don't! Don't!"
Zhao Chen freaked out.
"I really don't dare take the drug you make…"
"We're good friends. Why do you want to kill me?"
"Is living not a good thing?"
"Cry if you want to, but nobody will come to save you…" Clutching Zhao Chen's jaw and preventing him from jerking about, Shen Zhe stuffed the bottle into his mouth violently.
"I'm doomed…"
Sensing that something warm flowed into his throat, Zhao Chen cramped on the sheet, with tears spreading out of his eyes.
He didn't know that his life would end that way!
…
The guys' dormitories were next to each other. Zhao Chen's wail echoed throughout the building.
The other students heard the noise and looked at each other in bewilderment.
They were thinking about knocking on the door and seeing what was going on, when they heard Shen Zhe's declaration.
"Cry if you want to, but nobody will come to save you…"
"It's Shen Zhe from Class Three… They're good friends. It should be fine…"
Someone recognized Shen Zhe's voice.
"Oh…"
All the students nodded and looked at each other, astonished.
What an exciting game…
Were Shen Zhe and Zhao Chen gays?
