50.The calm before the storm

50.The calm before the storm

Derek is the second most powerful person in the class after James. Whether in terms of financial resources or connections, he is on par with James. Unexpectedly, he only got a mere twelve votes now.

Derek's face turned a little red, but still said, "My pocket money has been greatly reduced by my dad. Besides, James secretly took money from home. I can only manage to get twelve votes now."

"Is that so." I nodded. It seems relying on Derek is impossible. But the votes from Derek and us combined.

There are eighteen votes. Although it doesn't account for the majority, it can still hold a position.

"Okay, I'll agree to form an alliance with you," I said to Derek.

"Then please do your best. We must not let that guy James succeed." Sophia looked at me seriously and said.

I actually have a pretty good impression of this female monitor with a strong sense of justice. Maybe it's because she is one of the few people in the class who spoke up for me. However, in comparison, her executive ability is quite average. But she is the only one in the class who is constantly working hard.

I am ashamed of this kindness. Anyway, I still admire her very much. But now I have completely lost the idea of saving the entire class.

"Well, it's settled then." Derek finished speaking and turned to leave. Sophia, however, stayed by my side.

She looked at me seriously and said, "Frank, can you investigate with me during the next period of time?"

"I'm not interested," I said calmly.

"Frank, why are you like this? In the class, except for you and Ivan, no one can do this kind of thing. Please, I beg you." Sophia looked at me with a pleading look.

"Well then, as long as Ivan agrees, I'll also agree with you," I said like this.

"But Ivan didn't agree with me." Sophia looked at me with a pitiful gaze and said.

"Sorry, I will conduct the investigation. But not with you. But by myself." I said to Sophia. Sophia, this girl with a strong sense of justice, will only hinder my investigation.

Sophia left helplessly, leaving only me still thinking. Sophia has long hair. It seems she should be excluded.

And I also don't believe that the mastermind behind the scenes would be such a person with a strong sense of justice.

I didn't attend the evening self-study and went directly back home. My father was still working at home. The entire home was empty, with only me alone. I'm long accustomed to this loneliness, so it's not surprising.

Lying on the bed and picking up the Taigong Compass, I began to observe it carefully. The Taigong Compass is the most powerful item in my hand. It has the power to predict the future.

Looking at the Taigong Compass in my hand, I suddenly had an idea. Can I predict who the mastermind behind the scenes of our class is through the Taigong Compass? Thinking of this, I hurriedly bit my finger and then placed it on the Taigong Compass, reciting a few incantations.

These incantations are arid ancient texts, and I have no idea what they mean.

As my finger hurt, the blood began to be absorbed. I hurriedly asked, "Who is the mastermind behind the scenes in our class?"

After I finished speaking, I suddenly felt that the absorption power of the Taigong Compass increased significantly. On the Taigong Compass, a purple light flashed for a moment. My finger felt almost numb. My entire body's blood seemed to be guided by the Taigong Compass.

I was greatly shocked and hurriedly threw the Taigong Compass on the ground. After absorbing the blood, the Taigong Compass began to浮现 a floating character. This character was very incomplete. The blurry feeling was a character of 'Wang' or some other character.

I hurriedly looked at my finger. My entire finger was completely white without the slightest trace of blood color. Looking at my finger, I couldn't help but sit on the bed in fear. I was too naive.

Although the Taigong Compass is powerful, the price to pay for predicting is huge. The bigger the question, the more blood it absorbs. And this blood must be human blood. And it must be the blood flowing inside the blood vessels.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

If I hadn't thrown the Taigong Compass on the ground just now, I'm afraid I would have been drained of blood and died by it. The Taigong Compass is known as an ominous object, and it truly lives up to its name.

No wonder my aunt cautioned me not to use the Taigong Compass unless it was absolutely necessary.

The Taigong Compass is really too dangerous. Its prediction uses blood as a medium. The bigger the question, the more blood it absorbs. The question I asked just now almost caused me to be drained of blood and die by the Taigong Compass. From this, it can be seen how serious the answer to this question is.

"What kind of nightmare have I fallen into that the Taigong Compass has to drain all my blood to find the answer?" I looked at the Taigong Compass on the ground and said with a bitter smile. My face was full of fear.

The bloody character floating on the Taigong Compass was extremely incomplete and couldn't be identified at all. Maybe it's because there was too little blood. But I dare not let it draw blood anymore.

Just now, I already felt dizzy spells one after another. It seems to be due to the lack of blood.

I hurriedly drank several bowls of brown sugar water and ate a bunch of nutritious things. Then I fell asleep on the bed in a daze. I don't know what kind of nightmares are waiting for me in the future.

But at this moment, I have no choice. There is only one thought in my mind, and that is to survive!

The next day, I walked into the classroom with a pale face. Anyone could tell that I was not in a good mental state. It's no wonder.

Yesterday, the Taigong Compass almost drained all my blood, causing me to be greatly weakened. I still feel sleepy now. This made me determined that I will never use the Taigong Compass unless it's a life-and-death situation.

"Boss, didn't you sleep well last night?" Henry looked at me and asked strangely.

"More or less." I shook my head and said. I always feel listless now.

"Hehe, did the boss do something last night? Could it be that you lost your virginity?" Henry looked at me, desperately wanting to see something on my face.

"Damn it, I wish I could. The key is who would be with me?" I said angrily.

"Boss, there are so many girls in our class. With your ability, it's not difficult to find one." Henry winked at me and said.

"Get lost," I said angrily.

Just then, Jennifer also walked in. He held hands with his girlfriend, Perrin. It seemed that his spirit wasn't good either. And Perrin beside him was the same. Looking at the two of them like this, one could tell what they did last night at a glance.

"Jennifer, I really envy you," Henry said to Jennifer with a playful smile.

"Get lost. Who told you that you don't have a girlfriend? You deserve to be single." Jennifer scolded with a smile, and then came to me and said, "Boss, your complexion isn't good. Are you sick?"

"Maybe I have a cold. Don't worry about it. Let's still discuss it." I waved my hand and gathered them together. Then we started to discuss. After all, no one knew what options would be in the group voting.

Everyone started to discuss with each other. Even Adam joined in.

"If any of us appears in the group voting, we must choose another option, understand?" I said seriously.

"No problem. Let's do it like this." Henry said.

"But boss, if a group task like yesterday appears in the group voting, what should we do?" Jennifer asked.

I was stunned for a moment. His question really stumped me. The group task is the most uncontrollable option in the group voting and also the one with the most deaths.

"Let's see. If it can't be avoided, choose the one with the least casualties." I thought for a moment and said.

"Let's do it like this," Henry said.

While we were discussing, other places in the class had also agreed. James and Ryan were making promises to a group of girls.

"Let's make it like this. This is the way to avoid the least casualties." James said.

"Don't worry. We all support you." Ava said hurriedly. Then other girls also responded one after another.

George and Liu Xu were also discussing with each other. As for Sophia, she was whispering even more quietly. The entire classroom was full of whispering. No one dared to speak loudly. It was just like the calm before the storm.

Wang Meng came to me and whispered, "Frank, who are you going to choose later?"

"Let's see. I'm not too sure." I replied perfunctorily.

"Well then, if there's me in the group options, can you not choose me? I have no grudge against you." Wang Meng looked at me and said.

"OK," I promised directly.

"That's good," Wang Meng patted my shoulder and then left. And soon someone else came over. This time it was Diana. She lowered her head and dared not look at me. But I could clearly feel that her body was a little thin.

"What's the matter?" I looked at Diana and said. Facing Diana at this moment, I was quite calm in my heart.

"Later, can you not choose me?" Diana lowered her head and said after a long time.

"I won't choose you. I can do this." I looked at Diana and said. Although I was a little complaining about Diana, I wouldn't use such a despicable method to deal with a girl. This is not revenge. This is disgraceful.

"I knew it would be like this. Although you are cowardly, you are still very proud inside." Diana glanced at me, then finished saying this sentence and turned and left.

I withdrew my gaze, and my eyes were a little dim. Diana was my first love. Now although it's over. There is still some pain in my heart. I hope this feeling will gradually disappear.

Now the entire classroom is in chaos. There are constantly people talking. Some people had a bad relationship before. Now they have started fighting.

Just like the two girls in the front row. They were slapping each other's faces and scolding each other.

"You little bitch, you dare to snatch my Ivan."

"Who said Ivan is yours? Did he admit it himself?" This girl refused to give in and said.

"Whether he admits it or not, he is my favorite person. Don't look in the mirror. With your appearance, you still want to snatch a man from me." This girl sarcastically said and gave her another slap in the face.

So the two girls started to fight without giving in to each other. And Ivan beside them was indifferent. He didn't even look at them. Instead, he gently picked up his phone and waited for the group voting to arrive.
