I Was Admitted To The Villain School Chapter 13.2
Chai Yong originally felt that he had been deceived and felt resentful, but now, seeing their shocked and deflated appearance, he felt inexplicably relieved.
Lin Xinghe continued, "My companion is injured. Please help me treat his wounds—we brought back his broken hand, frozen by the bite from the sculptures."
The staff hadn't yet realized what Lin Xinghe meant when Lin Xinghe smiled sweetly, "I'm sorry for the trouble~"
She used to think that this girl was pretty and had a sweet smile, but now she sensed a sinister intent behind the smile.
After Lin Xinghe returned to her room, Tang Xin, Fang Ziyue and Li Chengyan followed.
Lin Xinghe assigned them tasks.
"Tang Xin, you are responsible for being the bait to seduce Xiao Xue Ji."
"Fang Ziyue, you are responsible for finding horror movies, movies, and dramas. You also can find some behind-the-scenes guides, as well as clear and gruesome pictures"
"As for Li Chengyan, you are responsible for printing and pasting photos."
Fang Ziyue asked in confusion, "Xiao Xue Ji… What is that?"
Lin Xinghe replied, "My photographer."
Fang Ziyue thought to herself, “Can you even bring photographers into the exam room?”
An hour later, when Fang Ziyue saw the ferocious little girl with five mouths, her legs trembled in fright. However, Lin Xinghe grabbed her and tied her to the foot of the bed.
She said in a familiar tone, "You’ve already been fooled this way, do you not have a good memory? You’re already here, so how about we work together? Look, although I tied you up, I haven't hurt you. I don't know what the Snow Maiden did to you, but I'm a good person. I can even help you deal with the Snow Maiden, provided you promise to cooperate with me. Not only that, I can also help you broaden your path. I used to be an actor, although I only acted in one movie. However, I think whether people are actors or in your line of work, they have to broaden their horizons"
She continued earnestly, "Do you know why you can't make me afraid of you? Because the illusion you created is not scary to me. You have not fully understood the essence of the word ‘horror.’ But don't worry, you are still young; you can learn, and you have room to grow. I have carefully prepared many horror movies for you and even found a collection of horror cuts for you, which will help you to create more terrifying illusions than before…"
She took out her phone and clicked on the movie Fang Ziyue prepared.
"Look, the tension of this scene makes the terror tangible. Even I tremble when I see it, so do you want to see how to do this? If you cooperate with me, I promise to teach you all the scary secrets of a lifetime, so that you will be successful in the future. You won't be so despondent that you have to turn into a snake and steal meals from zoo animals."
Xiao Xue Ji couldn't take her eyes off of it.
Lin Xinghe turned off the phone. Seeing that Xiao Xue Ji's eyes were still on the screen of her phone, she asked with a smile, "If you agree to this deal, nod."
Xiao Xue Ji nodded.
Lin Xinghe said: "Sweetie, you’re such a great kid. Now, let’s start. This is our first lesson."
She pulled up a movie of a ghost in red, "Replicate this scenario, and replace the ghost's face with me. Have me interact with the villagers, eat kids in front of their parents if they have kids, eat their possessions if they don't have kids, and eat their body parts if they don't have possessions. After eating, I want a special effect—a fire burning behind me. Then, create a scene in which I fight with the Snow Maiden Goddess. I will grind the Snow Maiden’s face into the ground, and the fire behind me will swallow the Snow Maiden and melt her…"
Lin Xinghe said, "Come to the rehearsal, Tang Xin, you lie on the bed."
"Sure."
Xiao Xue Ji worked hard to create an illusion.
Lin Xinghe said, "Hey, wait, pause for a sec."
She pointed to the "Lin Xinghe" hanging in the air.
"...The clothes are too ugly; they don't look good at all, and they aren’t immediately intimidating. This red is too provocative—all Snow Maidens take the erotic route, and I can’t be in the same style. As soon as I appear on the stage, I need to look like an unfeeling villain. The Snow Maiden wears red, then I wear white, like mourning clothes*, do you know that color? Oh, yes, yes, this color is good! Let’s go with this color, it’s great, Xiao Xue Ji— you are very promising… You are amazing!"
Lin Xinghe praised her so much that Xiao Xue Ji curled her lips and studiously worked harder to change "Lin Xinghe’s” clothes.
Finally, the scene was set.
Lin Xinghe took a photo and asked Li Chengyan to print it at the self-service printer.
One night later—
Everyone in the town had a similar nightmare.
In the dream, there was a sweet-looking woman in white, but her methods were brutal. There was a flame burning behind her. She didn't even go through scary villain threats when she showed up—just directly started killing people. She even fought the Snow Maiden after killing people, and she rubbed and rubbed the Snow Maiden into the ground until it turned into a puddle of melted snow.
The dream was too real. After getting up, everyone was stunned and confused.
Some of them walked outside and saw that the door gods were all replaced by a woman in white. She looked exactly like the villain from their dream, with a sweet smile. The only difference was that her eyes had no life, as still as stagnant water.
They remembered yesterday's fire.
The monstrous fire burned down the Ice Sculpture Garden and also the winter-themed amusement park.
They realized the era of Snow Maiden's reign was over, and they ushered in the era of the Fire Maiden.
