Chapter 74 - 74 74 The Weaker You Are the More You Are Bullied

74: Chapter 74: The Weaker You Are, the More You Are Bullied 74: Chapter 74: The Weaker You Are, the More You Are Bullied Wang Yunxiao was not well-informed and still didn’t know what had happened.

To someone like him, who had experienced the deluge of internet information, such seemingly inexplicable articles were nothing unusual.

For instance, consider today, when a public account suddenly published an article claiming that an American university’s lab had issued a paper stating that being woken up by an alarm in the morning is a major factor in the sudden deaths of young people.

The article went on and on about how young people stay up late on their phones, don’t sleep at night, don’t get up in the morning, and how poor their sleep quality is…

Any normal person would find it baffling.

What, do I have to get up early every day because I love my job?

I set an alarm every day; do you think I like hearing that noise?

When you feel it’s inexplicable, it means you are not the target audience of the article.

In fact, if you scrolled down a bit more, you would find out they sell melatonin.

“Something happened?”

While having his thin porridge in the morning, Youtiao mysteriously leaned over and whispered a few words in Wang Yunxiao’s ear.

“Someone in the girls’ dormitory hanged themselves in the restroom?

Who was it?”

Youtiao passed over a newspaper and pointed out the content to Wang Yunxiao.

“Little Yuxiu?

Who is that?”

Wang Yunxiao had no recollection of the name.

“Don’t know her, she must be from the group that transferred in at the beginning of the year.”

Youtiao shook his head and said, “Little Gourd told me about it this morning.

The news hasn’t spread yet; only she and Chen Yan know of it now.”

“Did they save her?”

“Not sure.

After they sent the person to the infirmary to Nurse Liu, they went back to sleep.”

“Is it unclear, or is it something you shouldn’t say lightly?”

Wang Yunxiao glanced at Youtiao, “This is the second time, right?”

Youtiao silently nodded.

The first time was shortly after Wang Yunxiao had crossed over; he was having a night out with his brothers in the cafeteria when they encountered a man-eating demon.

Later, a girl named Jiang Yinyin, also a newcomer, disappeared from the school.

This news was suppressed by the school authorities and did not spread.

Now, the same tragedy was unfolding once again.

No one could know how such an article, fabricated purely from imagination, could psychologically harm the person involved.

Perhaps they knew, but they did not care.

As the saying goes, ‘pick on the soft persimmon.’

The most criticized aspect of Qinghe Middle School was not its harboring of homeless orphans; after all, letting people like Wang Yunxiao wander the streets was not beneficial to anyone.

The most controversial and despicable aspect was the last group of girls taken in.

Simply because they had no parents, no support, and did not know how to fight back, they were vulnerable and easy targets!

Bullying them was considered almost a righteous act!

No matter which power group looked towards the school, realizing that the likes of Principal Zhou and a stubborn fool like Wang Yunxiao made direct action complicated, they naturally focused on the more vulnerable.

Without much thought, based just on this incident alone, Wang Yunxiao could predict the forthcoming developments.

With controlled information by the school, they would continue to fabricate storiettes, calling for the truth.

If the school didn’t control the information, they would use it to make a big fuss, criticizing the school’s disregard for human life.

For ordinary onlookers like Wang Yunxiao, not understanding their intentions was normal.

Because you do not buy melatonin…

“Echo Erosion.”

Wang Yunxiao was no longer the naive youngster of the past; he saw through their schemes at a glance.

He whispered to Youtiao, “Once the news spreads, there might be an ‘Echo Erosion’ effect.

We need to be psychologically prepared.”

“Grab the garlic, grab the sea salt…”

Even in a world unaffected by mysterious forces, similar echo phenomena would occur, or one could say, collective panic caused by the spread of rumors.

In ancient times, this was known as camp outcry.

“I don’t know who wrote this kind of stuff.”

Youtiao snorted coldly, “If I see them sneaking photos near the school entrance again, I’ll call Guozi to deal with them!”

“We don’t need to worry about this.

The school should be able to handle it.”

Principal Zhou was no pushover.

Normally, anyone with a clear mind wouldn’t touch this hot mess.

It was hard to judge their mental state since they brazenly brought up such unreliable stuff.

For an incident that had escalated to impact social order stability, the Special Service Bureau wouldn’t continue to turn a blind eye, right?

Wang Yunxiao was mulling over this when suddenly, everything before him darkened.

Chen Yan came over and sat opposite him.

Seeing her eyes ringed with dark circles, she probably hadn’t slept well last night.

Normal people wouldn’t sleep well after encountering such things.

However, this was the first time Wang Yunxiao had seen her looking angry.

When she argued with the poor students in the class over classroom discipline and not turning in homework, she used to get just mad, and her puffed-up face even looked somewhat cute.

But this time, she was truly angry.

Her gaze was terrifyingly cold.

“Do you know Zhou Qing?”

“I don’t know her,”

Wang Yunxiao shook his head, he had no recollection of this name.

“Before she transferred here, she had a nickname, Little Yuxiu.”

“Oh…”

Wang Yunxiao lifted the newspaper, “You mean her?

I really don’t know her.”

“She was sold to that kind of place from a young age, not knowing where her parents were, not even knowing who she was.

The name Zhou Qing was given by the principal, hoping she could, like any normal family’s child, have the right to educate herself and take control of her own life.”

Chen Yan’s eyes reddened, and she grit her teeth.

“Just because of this falsely fabricated article, she feared that others would know her past and point fingers at her, so last night she hanged herself in the toilet…”

“So what do you want?

Do you want to avenge her?”

Wang Yunxiao couldn’t help but counter, “Do you think it’s because of you that the demon, finding no flaws in you, targeted someone else instead?

That child was innocent, died because of you, do you feel guilty, is that it?”

Chen Yan pursed her lips, silent, as if she might burst into tears if Wang Yunxiao said another word.

“If it’s true, what’s there to be afraid of admitting?

You think I’d laugh at you?”

Wang Yunxiao, lowering his voice, said, “On the fifteenth, Teacher Liu will open that door in the school for us.

When that thing smells the scent and comes over, we’ll find a chance and kill it!”

Chen Yan fell silent for a moment, then nodded forcefully.

This child had already harbored murderous intentions…

Wang Yunxiao sighed inwardly; he really wanted to award a medal to that friend.

In their newly formed rookie team, Chen Yan had originally been the weakest link.

Saying she had a Holy Mother’s heart might be an exaggeration, but she had a normal person’s level of mentality.

Placed in this team, she had become the weak link.

But look at you now, directly helping us patch up the last vulnerability.

Now, she was just like one of us.
