Infinite Flow: Becoming a God in a Nightmare Game

When Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi arrived at the dormitory, they both took deep breaths of fresh air.

Jiang Qi supported himself on his knees and breathed steadily, then took out the documents he had obtained and placed them on the table.

Jiang Qi not only took the documents related to Chu Qidie, but also some others, which he unfolded and arranged by year and month.

The earliest incident was Chu Qidie's arson and injury incident. It was around the time that Class 1 of the third year of high school caught fire, burning all the students inside to death, but she escaped because she went to the toilet.

So Teacher Liu became suspicious of her and targeted her. The school also gave Chu Qidie a public reprimand.

Jiang Qi had many doubts in his heart, feeling that things were not simple. Perhaps it was just that Teacher Liu or even the school had been negligent and wanted to shift the blame to Chu Qidie.

The principal's rule of 100% head-up rate was largely due to this fire. As soon as this thought crossed my mind, the system's mechanical voice sounded.

Congratulations to player Jiang Qi's Ghost Stories I for successfully reaching 100% exploration progress!

[Due to slight discrepancies between player Jiang Qi's exploration and reality, the following is a detailed explanation of the first strange tale, "Study Hard."]

In order to maintain a good head-up rate and learning atmosphere, the principal and the grade director strictly checked the head-up rate of all classes and held an awards ceremony to commend Ms. Liu, the homeroom teacher of Class 1, Grade 12.

Teacher Liu was smug, unaware that this approach had harmed herself and the entire class.

One evening, Ms. Liu was explaining a problem to the class. Everyone below the podium was looking up and listening attentively, and occasionally the head of the teaching department would come to check the class.

The head of teaching affairs nodded to Teacher Liu with great satisfaction upon seeing this.

But the accident happened unexpectedly. Just five minutes before the end of evening self-study, a fire swept in, and the entire building was filled with thick smoke.

The students in Class 1 of Senior Three seemed oblivious to the smell of smoke, their heads glued to the blackboard. Ms. Liu tried to wake them, but they remained frozen in place. Left with no choice, Ms. Liu abandoned her students, whom she was so proud of, and fled.

The fire was eventually extinguished, but all the students inside were burned alive. However, one student who went to the toilet was lucky enough to escape the fire.

It turns out that even with deviations, the exploration rate can still reach 100%. After understanding all the events, Jiang Qi suddenly realized the truth.

Jiang Qi didn't care about the slight deviation. The important thing now was to finish reading the documents. So he turned his attention to the remaining documents. When he pulled the second document out of the folder, a photo fell out of the interlayer.

The documents and materials were all yellowed and old, but this photo looked brand new, as if it had just been put in.

Jiang Qi picked up the photo and discovered it was a group photo of Class 1, Grade 12.

Jiang Qi glanced at the group photo, and his eyes narrowed when he saw a familiar name—Chu Qidie.

Jiang Qi looked through the rows and found where Chu Qidie was standing and saw her face.

The expression on her face in this photo is completely different from the last time I saw her. At this time, she was still very young and innocent, with her hair tied in a high ponytail and a smile on her face full of longing for high school life.

It seems this photo was taken when she first entered the school. Then she saw a boy standing in the back row and felt inexplicably familiar with him, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

Jiang Qi had a flash of inspiration and recalled the family photo he had seen at Teacher Liu's house. The person in the family photo looked remarkably similar to the boy in this group photo.

Although they were not from the same period, they could still see similarities in appearance, which made Jiang Qi even more certain that this was Teacher Liu's son.

Jiang Qi continued searching and found the boy's name—Zhao Yu.

At this moment, Lu Zhi, who was craning his neck to look at the photo, also spoke up, "Brother, look at this Teacher Liu, her face has turned into a grayish-black mess, and her face is the only one in the whole photo that looks like this, it's so strange."

Lu Zhi's words awakened Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi was stunned and followed Lu Zhi's gaze to Teacher Liu. He wiped her face with his hand and found that the gray-black stain was not an accidental spill.

But everyone's face in the photo he just saw looked normal, and Jiang Qi had never seen any of the students' faces in the group photo in his current class.

Jiang Qi had great faith in his memory. Another suspicious point was that no one had mentioned the fire, but Jiang Qi had indeed heard about Chu Qidie's suicide from other students.

Everything that has been revealed has become elusive, either due to the school's requirement to keep quiet or for some other reason.

Jiang Qi tossed the group photo to Lu Zhi, telling him to pay close attention to the changes in the photo.

Jiang Qi flipped to another document about Chu Qidie's suicide.

The title, in bright red, filled the top of the document and drew attention. It stated that Chu Qidie committed suicide due to excessive academic pressure, and included a photo of her suicide.

Since the photos were printed, they are all black and white and cannot be clearly seen or understood from the perspective of the time.

One image shows Chu Qidie's slender figure standing on the roof of the teaching building, while a large group of students and teachers are crowded together below.

The other photo shows Chu Qidie's corpse. Her eyes are tightly closed and she is facing the camera. But when Jiang Qi turns his head, the person in the photo suddenly opens her eyes and stares intently at Jiang Qi.

This is not an illusion; even the players watching the live stream noticed this phenomenon.

However, apart from opening her eyes, she made no other movement.

Jiang Qi noticed it but simply pretended not to see it and continued reading. The whole document can be summarized as follows: Chu Qidie's suicide by jumping off a building has caused widespread panic, and rumors of vengeful spirits circulating in the school.

Because someone died in this incident, the school spent a lot of money to cover it up and also gave Chu Qidie's family a sum of money to prevent them from causing trouble.

Whether this money was also intended to cover up the wrongdoing is unknown.

The school provided very little information about Chu Qidie's suicide, mostly urging students to maintain a positive attitude, study hard, and avoid causing any more trouble that could damage the school's reputation.

Throughout the entire article, Jiang Qi never felt that the school took this matter seriously; on the contrary, he felt extremely oppressed at the school.

The fact that someone committed suicide at this school went unnoticed by the outside world, yet many parents still happily sent their children to study there.

Anyone would find the school's actions intolerable, but Jiang Qi's emotions didn't fluctuate much. After all, it's rare for a school to handle a death in a way that satisfies everyone.

Jiang Qi then flipped through the other documents that had been pulled out, which included almost all the awards won in school competitions and the activities held.

In addition to these, the materials also include student files and teacher files.

Jiang Qi flipped through the files and found that there was one for Chu Qidie and another for the other students in Class 1 of Senior Three.

The teachers' files included Teacher Liu's, and Jiang Qi didn't expect that the principal's personal file would also be brought out this time.

It seems the database visit went quite well this time.

Jiang Qi specifically took out Chu Qidie's file and the principal's file to look at himself, and handed the remaining more important files to Lu Zhi.

Only the sound of the two of them flipping through documents remained in the dormitory, while Lu Xue gradually woke up on Lin Wanchu's side.

In the last moment before Lu Xue lost consciousness, she saw a tall, slender figure; it was he who pulled her out of the sea of ​​fire.

Where is Lin Wanchu? Was she rescued? Lu Xue slowly opened her eyes and saw Lin Wanchu's expression of undisguised surprise and joy.

Lin Wanchu gently lifted Lu Xue up and then carefully fed her the water she had prepared.

"Xiaoxue, drink some water to soothe your throat first."

After drinking the water, Lu Xue moved her body and felt much better from the burning pain.

"Wan Chu, we actually survived."

"Yes, yes, Jiang Qi saved us. Let's not talk and rest."

Lin Wanchu was still shaken by the scene of Lu Xue being engulfed in flames yesterday and kept a close eye on Lu Xue's condition.
