"It's not necessarily all dead people, but there must be some dead people mixed in." I analyzed calmly. Anyway, although David's stepmother died and the clues were interrupted, I got a very important piece of information.
That is, among our classmates, there is a girl who has a relationship with the mastermind behind the scenes. Maybe she is even the mastermind!
"Anyway, we found some clues this time. It wasn't a wasted trip." I said calmly to Jennifer. After the experience in the archives room, the evidence was gradually disappearing.
"Let's go back, boss," Jennifer said. Then he and I returned to the class. In the class, it was still chaotic. This situation has lasted for a long time, so I wasn't surprised.
Sitting on the chair, I saw Henry discussing something with Adam. Seeing us come back, Adam hurriedly returned to his seat. And Henry exclaimed excitedly, "Boss, you're back?"
"Well," I nodded and sat on the table. I asked, "What did Adam want from you?"
"He wants to form an alliance with us. Boss, do you say we should agree?" Henry asked.
"Of course, he and Jared have two votes together." I thought for a moment and said. The voting game in the class still hasn't ended. Under the pressure of survival, we have to make some preparations.
I have four votes now, namely Henry, Jennifer, me, and Perrin. If we add Adam and them, it's six votes. Of course, these six votes are nothing for more than forty people in the class.
"Then I'll agree to him." Henry finished and walked over. Then he said a few words to Adam and came back satisfied. Sitting on the chair. He said helplessly, "Boss, we only have six votes now. We can't do anything with this."
"Yes, it can't play a decisive role." I nodded and said.
"Now the one who has the most votes in the whole class is James. He is rich. He has drawn in most of the girls in the class." Henry said dissatisfiedly.
"It's no use. Even if he has all the votes in the class, it only reduces the chance of him being selected to the lowest. It doesn't mean he definitely won't be selected." I said disdainfully.
"Yes, whether it's the Death Rock-Paper-Scissors game or the Death Animal Chess. They are all randomly selected. Even James can be selected." Henry said.
I nodded and didn't speak, just frowned slightly. I found that the voting in the group is becoming more and more difficult. At the beginning, it was just dancing and confessing. At most, it was a bit embarrassing. But later, the difficulty of the tasks has increased geometrically.
And it's no longer possible to avoid death as before. For example, in the Death Rock-Paper-Scissors game, no matter how you avoid it, only two people will die. This is the lowest casualty. If you are not careful, all six people participating in the game will die.
This elimination rate is simply terrifying. If the voting at the beginning was just a game, but later it has become a terrifying death game.
What's even more terrifying is that until now, we still don't know who is maintaining this voting game. Up to now, new votes are born every day.
We can't stop it at all. We can only watch death come upon one classmate after another. Under such circumstances, one classmate after another began to form groups, wanting to gather more votes. This also made the unity in the class that once existed disappear. Everyone began to suspect each other.
Even though I clearly knew this situation, I could only helplessly stop it. Instead, I silently collected votes.
"I hope there won't be group tasks tomorrow," I murmured to myself. Henry and Jennifer nodded along. In the class voting, group tasks have the highest mortality rate.
For example, in Death Animal Chess and Death Rock-Paper-Scissors, no less than two people die each time. If we die like this, not many people in the whole class can survive.
If it's some individual tasks, it's easy to handle. For example, Liu Mingyang's touching the chest today. It's a very simple task. It doesn't lead to death. This is the item with the lowest casualty among the group options.
The content that appears in the group voting is random. There may be cruel games like Death Animal Chess, or there may be some individual small tasks. These tasks are very simple. They can be easily completed.

Shaking my head, I sighed. Now I can only try to find the mastermind behind the scenes. My gaze swept around the class and then began to look carefully.
The short-haired girl that David's stepmother mentioned is in our class. She pays attention to us all the time. She is a thorn in the class. If we don't remove this thorn, we will be doomed.
"Who could this girl be? There are about a dozen short-haired girls in the class. Starting from these people, maybe we can find the target." I kept thinking in my heart.
Now that there are important clues, there are objects that can be investigated. As long as these short-haired girls are locked as the task targets. One day, I will find the mastermind behind the scenes. This is much better than aimlessly looking for a needle in a haystack.
At least I know that the mastermind behind the scenes is in this class and among a dozen short-haired girls.
"Well, no problem, boss." Jennifer patted his chest and agreed to this matter.
"That's it. As long as she is in this class, she will definitely show her flaws." I said.
Then in the following time, we started chatting. Anyway, there was nothing to do in the classroom. Just when we were chatting happily, Adam came over.
Looking at Adam, I joked, "How is it, Adam? Is your tigress nice to you?"
"Hehe, it's okay." Adam forced a laugh and said. Since he became a couple with Jared. No one really bullied him anymore. But everyone started to mock him.
Adam was also helpless about this but had no way to deal with it.
"No matter what, we are all on the same side from now on. We need to unite and advance and retreat together." I patted Adam on the shoulder and said. Adam nodded and hurriedly flattered, "Please take care of me more in the future, Brother Zhang."
I nodded with a smile and then patted his shoulder and talked to him. In fact, after all, none of us are rich. In the class, we all belong to the kind of people who are unknown.
Not to mention me and Henry, Adam was bullied every day. Even Jennifer didn't get along well with the people in the class.
While we were chatting, James came over with a group of sycophants. There were both men and women among these sycophants, and he was holding Bertha in his arms.
"Hehe, look at you guys. Are you planning to form a loser alliance?" James looked at us and said.
His words caused laughter, and the sycophants around all laughed loudly. And Bertha in James' arms was also smiling, but her beautiful eyes were looking at me mockingly.
"This seems to be our business and has nothing to do with you," I responded coldly and didn't say any nonsense. After all, I'm not a match for James yet.
James has collected most of the votes in the class now. There is almost no one who can compete with him now.
"Frank, you are so smart. Come and follow me." James looked at me and said.
"Follow you? I'm more comfortable on my own." I looked at James and said.
"Hehe, that's not necessarily true. You know. I have so many votes now. If I want to kill you, it can be done in minutes. Don't be ungrateful." James' face turned cold, and his words were even more threatening.
"You can try," I responded calmly. After experiencing the Death Rock-Paper-Scissors and Death Animal Chess. It can be said that my experience is extremely rich. Even if I'm selected again next time, I'm not afraid.
It's different for James. He hasn't experienced the two death games. He only experienced the short voting game. In terms of game experience and wisdom, he is definitely not my opponent.
James' expression remained unchanged and he said coldly, "Okay, Frank. Just wait for the next vote." After saying that, he held Bertha's slender waist and left with a livid face.
"Frank, you offended James. You can't stay in this class anymore!"
"Yeah, just wait to die."
Several of James' followers behind him also looked at me, then said a few harsh words and left. I turned my head calmly as if I didn't hear anything and continued chatting with Henry.
However, in my heart, I was still a little worried. Because both the Death Rock-Paper-Scissors game the time before last and the Death Animal Chess game last time, both involved me and Ivan.
If this wasn't random, then it was very likely a conspiracy. The mastermind behind the scenes knew that Ivan and I might be the most crucial people to solve this game. So several times, they wanted to eliminate Ivan and me.
Although I won twice in a row, but what if I'm directly selected next time? No one can win all the time. In this death game, as long as you lose once, there is no chance anymore. I shook my head and started chatting again.
But in my heart, that trace of fear couldn't be dispelled no matter what. It accompanied me like a curse.
After James left, Derek and Sophia came over.
"What do you want to do? Do you also plan to ally?" I looked at Derek and said.
"Yes. Now James has total dominance. If we don't unite, then we who have offended him will surely die." Derek said.
And Sophia beside him also said, "We can't let James continue like this. We must unite."
"How many votes do you have in total?" I asked a key question. Now the votes in the class are the most important. The reason why James is so arrogant and domineering is that he holds most of the votes in the class. No one can compete with him.
"We have twelve votes together," Derek said.
"Twelve votes. Just this little?" I frowned and asked.
"Jennifer, remember to help me collect the information of these short-haired girls. Maybe the mastermind is among them." I said to Jennifer.
