CH 99.1

【Huff—— Huff——

The hefty gasping sound became the only background song in the dark and deserted corridor.

After walking back and forth in the same corridor countless times, everyone finally found out that they were trapped in a ghost wall and could not get out no matter what.

“Wuwu——”

One of them started crying out of desperation.

Guo An looked at the exhausted crowd. Clenching his wife’s delicate hand, he said while gasping for breath, “Let’s choose the sinner first, maybe we can find a way out.”

When the other passengers heard this, they immediately became hopeful again.

They took out all the clues and information they had collected and put them together, trying to find the correct sinner.

Everyone’s guesses were different, but in the end, they got into the same conjecture.

The sinner they chose was Liu Li.

The Acne-faced shouted in shock, “What are you talking about?! It’s not me! It’s really not me! How, how it could be me?!”

Facing Liu Li’s desperate eyes, everybody indifferently avoided his gaze and handed over their answer.

[The sinner has been chosen——]

The icy voice sounded, withering everyone’s new bud of hope.

“AAARRGHH—— I’m waiting for you guys’ death! AARGH——!!!”

Liu Li, who was torn to pieces by an invisible force, shouted his last curse.

After a few seconds of suffocating calm, the icy voice sounded again

[——Wrong answer, issuing punishment.]

Everyone’s face was ashen as they heard the icy voice.】

—— From《Bus of Hell》

Zhou Yu stood up and looked coldly at the acne-faced young man, waiting him to finish his accusation.

Although Zhou Yu knew that the acne-faced young man would never say anything good, the young man’s next remarks still made him sigh. 

This world is so big and there is all kind of things —— But, why do I need to meet all these weirdos!

When the acne-faced young man saw the gangster youth standing up, he immediately followed so as not to be outdone. The young man exclaimed loudly, “He just came face-to-face with that monster! But nothing happened, there must be something fishy! Maybe we’re encountering these kinds of things because of him!”

As soon as the young man finished, the bus suddenly quieted down and everyone’s gaze at Zhou Yu changed.

From indifference and disgust to hatred and fear.

Zhou Yu was so angry.

“Then according to your deduction, aren’t those people in the first two rows also suspicious?”

Zhou Yu retorted to the young man who wanted to pour muddy water on him.

He could not believe it. The people on this bus actually believed that remarks, which had no basis and were fabricated out of thin air by the young man.

The acne-faced young man was choked by Zhou Yu’s words. He could not think of any refutation.

After all, that monster really went past the people in the first two rows and instead attacked the middle-aged fat man in the third row.

It could be said that those people also had come face-to-face with the monster —— so, the young man’s remarks were unjustified.

Zhou Yu looked at him coldly, waiting for his explanation.

Although he did not care what the people on the bus thought of him, he would not let someone pour muddy water on him for no reason.

“But you’re the only one who got so close with that monster! You’re also the first one who found the driver’s corpse!”

The buck-toothed woman sitting on the second row immediately shouted angrily, for fear the fire of hatred would spread to her.

I need to pin this misdeed to that b*stard.

From the first time she saw that good-for-nothing, she already found him an eyesore.

He wore gaudy, outrageous clothes that disgusted her eyes, she did not know what he was doing in private.

Zhou Yu put on a fake smile and asked, “So? What about it?”

He could see it clearly, this group of people were deliberately messing with him.

Putting away their flimsy remarks, just said that it was him who did that. If he had such great power, he would have scared these people to the point they could not talk anymore.

But now, they still dared to pour muddy water on him. It was obvious that they only wanted to vent their fear and used him as a punching bag.

As for logic and evidence?

Heh! It doesn’t matter to these idiots.

After hearing Zhou Yu’s sloppy tone, the passengers who were already on the edge hated him more because of his sarcastic and rude behaviour.

“What about that? Of course, you need to get out now! You d*mned evil star! You must be the cause of all these things!”

“Yeah! Get him out of here! You b*stard with a rotten heart! Get out now!”

“You trash! Get out of here!”

There was another chaos on the bus.

In this short period of time, the passengers’ voices were still as loud as before. It was as if they wanted to overturn the bus’ roof.

All of the voices got mixed together, it was so chaotic. Zhou Yu could not tell who was scolding him, but it was enough to make him mad.

Zhou Yu frowned at the noisy passengers. He was completely annoyed with these people who without thinking, believed in the rain after hearing the wind.[1]

He clenched his fists and walked quickly to the acne-faced young man who splashed muddy water on him first. Then, beat him to the point of crying.

“Waa! How dare you?! You! Aah—— Sorry—— I’m wrong! Wu!”

The acne-faced young man was beaten heavily by Zhou Yu.

At first, he wanted to call on others for help, but after taking a few fists, he found that the others were just watching, so he gave up and kept begging for mercy.

But Zhou Yu was so angry and ignored his insincere apology.

Bang——

After finishing his last punch, Zhou Yu stood up straight again.

Zhou Yu looked at the people who became quiet when he beat the young man and said coldly, “I’m not interested in playing with you. If you want to stay on the bus, then stay. I won’t accompany you.”

Without looking back, Zhou Yu picked up his bag and got off.

Even if these people did not say anything, he would get off.

The bus’ television already stated it clearly.

The passengers must get off and explore the old rental house.

Just now, no one got off and one of them died. These people did not do anything and they fought with each other instead. They did not even discover the rules of this Bus of Hell.

These people’s IQs were infuriating and laughable.

Zhou Yu, who deeply felt that his IQ was higher than those mortals, got out of the bus and suddenly felt the loneliness of a being that stayed in the highest place.

Blame me for being too smart, making these mortals want to slander me out of jealousy —— but he did not want to forgive them.

Being weak does not mean they can insult the strong.
