Society has truly turned everyone into complicated creatures.” Wu Wang sighed and walked back to the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His footsteps on the stage merged with the sound of the corrupt doctor collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud! Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The footsteps sounded like a funeral dirge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With every step Wu Wang took, someone collapsed, face twisted in terror, unable to rise again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time he returned to the microphone, ten new corpses lay on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them were the ones who’d nearly been chased by Wu Wang during the shadow-stepping game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You bastard… what did you do…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question came from a middle-aged woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted her accusation to sound firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But fear overpowered her, and her voice trembled involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just her—anyone who’d noticed Wu Wang’s actions believed the dead were connected to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How else could such a coincidence happen?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet still, no one dared approach the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy’s extraordinary combat skills were already enough to deter them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with his suspected mastery of the death rule, they feared him even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their deaths have nothing to do with me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Wang’s smile remained unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But such blatant lying stirred the crowd into agitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They felt insulted, disrespected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this was a group of utterly ruthless murderers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fear or not, if pushed too far, they’d die trying to tear a piece off Wu Wang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, right now, someone was already preparing to attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll reveal one death rule now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before the murderers could fully erupt, Wu Wang suddenly spoke into the microphone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the scum instantly fall silent, he shrugged, feigning submission: “There’s only one ghost in this classroom—it just has different rules for day and night.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At night, it goes blind and must rely on sound to locate you. Got it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, the first death rule is—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Do not make noticeable sounds during the night】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A revelation struck like lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone simultaneously raised their eyebrows, faces lighting up with sudden understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder, after the lights went out, everyone froze in fear—and no more deaths followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the loudest noises and movements had been their own bloody fights!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stopping meant safety!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a few still remained skeptical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hadn’t forgotten that when everyone fell silent, the only sounds in the room had been this kid’s wailing singing and tap-dancing footsteps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the ghost killed by sound—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then why was Wu Wang unharmed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something was definitely wrong…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know any other rules?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speaker’s tone was no longer sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were satisfied with Wu Wang’s “submission” in revealing the death rule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looks like this kid isn’t as stupid as he seemed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shhh~ Don’t rush~ Time’s almost here~” Wu Wang’s voice returned to its usual sneering tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before everyone could grasp what he meant by “time,” the familiar thunderous boom sounded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lights went out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s tension rose once more to their throats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hadn’t expected the stage lights to stay on for only this short a time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roughly ten minutes, maybe less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now that they knew the rule in advance, no one moved rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They merely adjusted their breathing and movement with extreme caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time seemed to freeze at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one collapsed during the interval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He was telling the truth!?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This silenced even the few who had doubted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The facts were right before their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… could he really be this kind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough, cough, cough—silence is tonight’s Cambridge.
