Chapter 252: Chapter 9 From Now On, I’ll Be the Temporarily Acting as the Homeroom Teacher!

"Tang Zheng, this is not like you. Have you discovered something?" Li Xinlan was most familiar with Tang Zheng, and the earlier rudeness was not his character. Even if he despised someone, he would not show it in his countenance.

"Did you really find an exit?" Qin Yan also thought that this was the most possible answer, as Tang Zheng had lost his usual composure. "What makes it difficult for you to say out loud?"

Looking at the exploratory gaze from Lu Fan and the others, Tang Zheng started but did not finish. He then shook his head after glancing at the seven high-school students.

"Brother Tang, don’t beat around the bush. Just say it." Zhang Hao was as uncomfortable as if his heart was being scratched like a cat’s claw. He was anxious and irritable.

"Gao Meilin, can you leave for a while? Of course, after ten minutes, you can come back for dinner." Yin Shangwu sensed the crux of the matter and dismissed Gao Meilin.

Seven high-school students also noticed the tense atmosphere. Although they were interested in knowing the answer to get out of the Coliseum, none of them was assertive. After Yin Shangwu swept them with an expressionless glance, they obediently stood up and left.

As soon as this happened, more than a dozen high school girls headed by Liu Jiamei immediately started gloating. For some unknown reason, they thought Gao Meilin had been driven away.

"Can you tell us now?" Yin Shangwu put down her chopsticks, sat upright, and stared at Tang Zheng.

"Trust me, you absolutely do not want to hear the method to get out." Tang Zheng let out a bitter smile, his eyes falling on the small wooden pieces thrown aside.

"I beg you, just say it." Zhang Hao even had the impulse to kneel down to Tang Zheng.

Yin Shangwu noticed Tang Zheng’s subtle action, picked up the wooden pieces from the ground, sneered after taking a glance and carelessly handed it to Zhang Hao, and continued eating.

"What’s this about?" Zhang Hao was confused. He picked it up and took a look. Then his expression become one of seeing a ghost. He looked at Tang Zheng, "This can’t be true, right?"

"It still needs verification, but it’s likely accurate." Tang Zheng put down his chopsticks, already having no appetite left for food, "Wait for the Skeleton soldiers to come out, kill them and see the situation."

"What kind of charade are you guys playing? I’m totally confused." Bai Guo’s face was filled with bewilderment, while Lu Fan reached out for the wooden piece.

"The way to leave the Coliseum is to kill three people as sacrifices, and draw a pentagram with their blood on the Stone Walls." Zhang Hao looked over at the high-school students in case they were eavesdropping, and then lowered his voice.

The Leopard Print Woman shivered immediately, her face was filled with disbelief, while the other stewardesses furrowed their brows. This method was too cruel.

"What do you guys think should we do?" After Zhang Hao swept a glance over everyone present, he looked at Tang Zheng, "Are you planning to play the good guys again? Are we going to stay here forever?"

"What if the method written on the wooden piece is fake? Wouldn’t that mean we needlessly killed three people?" From Qin Yan’s words, it can be seen that she did not oppose killing, but she did not want unnecessary deaths.

"Anyway, those who die won’t be one of us. Like Han Zifeng, for example, he is clearly not a good person. It’s perfect to use him as a sacrifice." Pang Meiqin had no psychological burden, "Taking this opportunity to eliminate some dissenting voices is also a good idea."

"Humph, once the information about this method leaks out, other people might form an alliance and try to fight us instead." Li Xinlan’s concern was not unfounded. Although they had their differences, when it came to deciding who should die, they might still subconsciously target strangers.

"Let’s wait a bit more. What if it’s a fake? They’re still children." Leopard Print Woman’s voice trembled, she was unable to accept this kind of discussion. It made her feel panicked.

"See, I was right. Just our group alone can’t agree on this, imagine what would happen if over forty high school students heard about it. Can you picture the terrifying consequences?" Tang Zheng was full of ridicule, "It would be best if they attacked us, then we would have a chance to eliminate people. Otherwise, they will kill one another, and social order will collapse."

"Not necessarily, right? How could children be that cruel?" Leopard Print Woman still didn’t believe it.

"Foolish, it’s not cruelty, but ignorance and apathy. They are all children raised like treasures by their parents. Will they consider the feelings of strangers? You can tell from their behavior how discordant the class is. Maybe some students would even hope that someone they are jealous of dies quickly." Having understood why the Leopard Print Woman would say this since she was known to spoil her children, Yin Shangwu said, "Even though they are high school students, their values in life haven’t been finalized yet. You expect them to make such decisions? A typical person at this age would judge things based on their likes and dislikes. A simple disagreement could turn them into enemies."

"What’s even more serious is that even if they unite now and make a promise to endure the hardship together, without water and food, as time goes by, there will always be people who can’t endure this torment anymore. They will develop malicious thoughts, or start to fall apart." Li Xinlan was even more worried, "Once these signs appear, it would cause a chain reaction that will spread the evil intent further."

"You guys just have too much time on your hands. Whether they unite or not, just pick three and kill them, isn’t it simple?" Zhang Hao was not good at strategising, "They’re just a bunch of useless fleas. Are you afraid that they will rebel?"

"There’s no problem in killing, but we can’t be the ones to do it." Tang Zheng realised that Zhang Hao had become an utterly selfish person who could do anything as long as he survived. However, now was not the time to turn against each other.
