The man in the suit already had an unpleasant look on his face, but he still suppressed his anger and asked with a grim expression, "How do you prove it?"
The woman with the ponytail retorted sharply, "That's your problem to solve."
Meeting up at the equipment repair center had been prearranged.
As one of the key locations emphasized by the NPC, it must hide some clues.
Correspondingly, there were also unknown risks lurking here.
The man in the suit and the man in the baseball cap clearly didn't want to take that risk, which is why they only appeared after everyone else came out.
Even Zhou Taifu had realized this by now.
The way everyone looked at the man in the suit and his companion gradually turned cold.
The man in the suit waved his hand toward the group, signaling for them not to worry, and then patted the baseball cap guy on the shoulder, asking him to explain why they were late.
He kindly added that if anything was missed, he would fill in the gaps.
The man in the baseball cap pulled at the brim of his hat and began speaking in an unfriendly tone.
While they were searching for clues in the teaching building, they had encountered the school's academic director.
The director had a brief conversation with them and then informed them to bring their equipment.
Later, they were to head to the large music classroom on the 4th floor of Building C.
There was a rehearsal there today.
"Was there a specific time?" the woman with the ponytail asked.
The man in the baseball cap glanced at his wristwatch, "No, she said that after we found you, we should go straight there."
And so, the group, led by the man in the baseball cap, skipped lunch and headed towards Building C.
Along the way, they exchanged the information they had gathered.
But as Jiang Cheng had said, no valuable intelligence came up.
It was less of an information exchange and more of a sharing of their experiences in the nightmare.
"Doctor," the fatty leaned toward Jiang Cheng and whispered, "doesn't this feel like one of those film analysis classes the teachers arranged when we were in school?"
He swallowed and continued, "I remember that after every movie, the homework for the day would include an 800-word review. You had to write it, no exceptions."
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and replied, "We had that too, but once our homeroom teacher accidentally opened her C drive and played the wrong movie. After that, all film analysis classes were canceled at the school."
The fatty: "..."
"Oh, right," Zhou Taifu, who was walking at the back, suddenly joined the conversation, "what do you all do in the real world? Since it's fate that brought us together, why not make some friends?"
The fatty glanced at him reluctantly, "What do you do?"
"My name is Zhou Taifu, I'm a somewhat well-known jeweler," he said, fiddling with the few strands of hair on his head, trying to appear more formal. "Some of you must have heard of my name."
It was obvious that Zhou Taifu lived a pampered life in reality.
He also took great pride in his status and wealth in the real world.
Since Zhou Taifu had brought it up, everyone went along with the conversation.
The man in the baseball cap gave a half-hearted introduction, calling himself Luo Yi and claiming to own a supermarket.
The man in the suit was named Zhen Jianren, reportedly working at a well-known law firm. Despite his young age, he had already made partner.
Upon hearing the man in the suit's name, the fatty was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Cheng also let out an "Hmm?"
"Doctor," the fatty looked at Jiang Cheng and whispered, "be honest, did something come to mind?"
"What are you two whispering about?" Zhen Jianren asked.
"Nothing," Jiang Cheng quickly explained, "Brother Jianren, don't get the wrong idea. I just think your mom gave you a really great name."
The woman with the ponytail couldn't hold back and laughed. She found Jiang Cheng more and more interesting.
"What's your name?" she asked Jiang Cheng, intrigued. "What do you do?"
Though she wasn't particularly stunning, she had a unique air of charisma that ordinary women couldn't compare to.
"My name is Hao Shuai," Jiang Cheng answered honestly. "You can just call me by my name, or feel free to call me 'handsome.' I'm a professional male model, currently working with the elite group at Die Lian Hua KTV nightclub."
The fatty: "..."
"A model?" the ponytail woman asked, becoming even more interested. Propping her chin on one hand, she teased, "One of those who makes a living off their looks?"
"No," Jiang Cheng replied righteously, "I also rely on physical strength and the affection of the ladies."
