Global Collapse

Chapter 374 The Scheming Beauty Chu

Li Yibai remained silent.

Gu Mian felt that he seemed to want to say something more, but the words were swallowed back down.

It seems he's somewhat indecisive now.

There were seven people present, plus the Yue woman on the ground who could no longer move around, making a total of eight people.

The only people not present at this moment were 007, who had just escaped, and Zhang Pingfan, who had hardly ever shown his face.

Chu Changge glanced at the wall clock at the back of the classroom: "It's almost time to vote. Have you decided who you want to vote for?"

Gu Mian looked at the others.

Pan Yue's expression was firm, just as firm as when she was voting for Li Wentao yesterday, as if she had already made up her mind to vote for 007.

Li Yibai, who was next to him, had his head down, so his expression was not visible.

Guo Jimei looked at Yuan Qinghua warily, as if Yuan Qinghua were a big wolfhound that could take her life at any moment.

Keke was being held tightly by Guo Jimei, and her expression was extremely awkward.

Chu Changge still had a deadpan expression, as if it were a face that had undergone botched plastic surgery and therefore couldn't make any big expressions.

As for the real dead Yue woman
The two Yue women lay quietly on the ground without uttering any comments.

Of course, they couldn't offer any opinions.

The situation remained deadlocked, and none of the others spoke.

This period of time seems to be passing unusually slowly.

It seemed as if they had agreed beforehand; although everyone had different expressions, no one spoke to break the rare silence.

The only sounds that could be heard from time to time on campus were the sound of the wind carrying fallen leaves and scraping the ground, or the sound of birds flapping their wings and flying across the sky.

A long silence followed, the hands of the clock bouncing merrily until they finally pointed to three o'clock, and they were faced with the same thing as the night before.

A mechanical sound suddenly rang out in the darkness, right above their heads.

Gu Mian looked up.

Because there are loudspeakers in the school corridors, this announcement was delivered directly to them through the loudspeakers.

"The second night has ended, and voting will begin soon. Please select your voter within one minute."

No sooner had the words fallen than Pan Yue spoke first: "I vote for Lin Qi!"

She seemed to be holding her breath and suddenly shouted it out; her voice was very loud, and the four words echoed in the dark corridor.

After Pan Yue shouted those four words, she turned her head forcefully to look at Li Yibai next to her.

Surprisingly, Li Yibai did not retaliate this time, which seemed to greatly disappoint Pan Yue, who had been pressing forward.

With only one minute allotted for voting, Yuan Qinghua quickly followed Pan Yue and spoke up, "Then I'll vote for Lin Qi too..."

Her voice sounded weak, suggesting she wasn't entirely confident about throwing herself at Lin Qi.

Coco looked around, seemingly feeling that voting for Lin Qi would damage their revolutionary friendship. After struggling for a while, she finally spoke up: "I...I abstain!" Gu Mian glanced at Coco and then said: "I abstain as well."

After all, they are comrades-in-arms; it's not right to stab them in the back like this.

Just then, someone suddenly appeared to cause trouble.

An untimely voice suddenly broke in: "I vote for Yuan blue and white porcelain!"

You don't even need to look to know that this is something Guo Jimei would say.

Gu Mian: "..."

Gu Mian knew that Guo Jimei was a ticking time bomb, which would explode at any time as long as Yuan Qinghua was still around.

But he didn't expect Guo Jimei to ignite things so casually.

Coco looked at Guo Jimei beside her in shock. She had to admit that Yuan Qinghua had not shown any signs of being a ghost in front of them so far.

But Guo Jimei held on tightly.

In terms of evidence, the video in Pan Yue's hand clearly points to the ghost being 007.

But Guo Jimei just wouldn't let go of the Yuan blue and white porcelain.

Pan Yue looked at Guo Jimei in shock: "Are you crazy? Why did you suddenly vote for Yuan blue and white porcelain!"

Gu Mian could tell from Pan Yue's shocked expression that it didn't seem fake. She didn't know about the connection between the two of them during the day, but now, judging from her expression, it seemed that she was starting to suspect that Guo Jimei was an accomplice of the ghost.

Guo Jimei immediately spoke up: "Believe me! Yuan blue and white porcelain is definitely a ghost!"

"I don't believe you!" Pan Yue looked very angry. "Forget it, Lin Qi already has two votes, so your vote for Yuan Qinghua won't make a difference."

As she spoke, she glanced at Li Yibai beside her, as if she thought that Li Yibai might vote for Yuan Qinghua in order to protect Lin Qi: "Don't let the death of Lin Qi cause the innocent Yuan Qinghua to die."

Yuan blue and white porcelain also looks quite frightening.

Chu Changge hasn't voted yet, so Pan Yue seems relatively relieved: "Of course, even if Li Yibai, you vote for Yuan Qinghua, you can't save Lin Qi. Beauty Chu hasn't voted yet..."

Just then, Gu Mian heard Chu Changge next to her suddenly speak up: "I vote for Yuan Qinghua."

At this point, 007 and Yuan Qinghua each had two votes.

As soon as he finished speaking, the others turned around in shock.

Pan Yue was the most agitated: "Are you all crazy? Why are you all voting for Yuan Qinghua? What did she do today?!"

Gu Mian saw Yuan Qinghua looking at Chu Changge with an extremely shocked expression, and within two seconds her eyes welled up with tears: "No...it really wasn't me, I didn't do anything..."

"Trust me!" Guo Jimei reached out and pulled Li Yibai. "Vote for Yuan Qinghua, she's definitely the ghost! If she's not the ghost, then you should vote me out in the next round! And if you vote for Yuan Qinghua, Lin Qi won't die."

Aside from 007 and Zhang Pingfan, who were absent, Li Yibai was the only one present who did not vote.

Everyone's eyes were on him.

At this point, there were still twenty seconds left until the last minute had passed.
