Chapter 1000...

  Outside an abandoned factory warehouse in the suburbs, a group of survivors from Class 1204 gathered together, hiding under the eaves, discussing something. The three dramatic characters they had brought with them had been given a certain dose of anesthesia and were laid out on the ground not far away.

  At this time, it was exactly 6 o'clock in New York, and the sky was dark. The original drizzle had become a heavy downpour. The rainwater on the iron roof made a dull "thud" sound. From time to time, there were flashes of lightning, followed by rumbling thunder. The wind also joined in, causing the nearby trees to rustle loudly.

  Among the crowd, Yin Kuang was explaining his own approach.

  "Yin Kuang, are you... certain about this? This is really... really too crazy..." After hearing Yin Kuang's plan, Bai Jue couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Zeng Fei, who was standing beside him, also said: "Yin Kuang, I've found that sometimes, you really... really... The last time we dealt with the Protection Umbrella Company was like this, and now you're coming up with another idea..." Wei Ming remained silent. But on Li Shuang's handsome face, there was an expression of calmness, as he said: "It's feasible. This time it's worth taking a risk." As for the other three girls, their expressions also changed slightly as they looked at Yin Kuang, with surprise, fear, and admiration.

  Yin Kuang closed the incomplete Death Note in his hand and said, "So, it's settled then?" Seeing that everyone either nodded or remained silent, Yin Kuang continued, "In that case, let's have a good meal now. Let's rest well, and after that, we'll start making arrangements."

  Everyone nodded in agreement.

  ……

  Ah!

  The main switch of the abandoned factory warehouse was turned on, and after a brief alternation of darkness and white light, the bright lights illuminated the interior of the warehouse. However, perhaps due to long disuse, the wiring and light bulbs were somewhat outdated, so several lamps exploded immediately, splashing out sparks. Although there were fewer lamps, the warehouse was still very bright. But that unknown "zzt" sound from somewhere made people's hearts feel uneasy.

  Yin stood at the entrance of the warehouse, looking around at the scene inside. The warehouse was filled with all sorts of machinery, boxes, iron frames, building materials and so on. Some were neatly arranged, while others were scattered randomly, giving the impression that no one had visited this place for a long time. Due to years of abandonment, these things had not been properly maintained, and since the roof of the warehouse was leaking in many places, all the iron objects were covered with a thick layer of rust.

  It's called a warehouse, but in fact it's just a place where broken copper and iron are piled up. But coincidentally, these broken copper and iron, taking out any one of them, can be fatal. So when people really saw the situation inside the warehouse, many of them turned pale and looked uncomfortable.

  Bai Gui said: "Yin Kuang, is there really no other way? I'm not afraid of death, I just think it's...it's weird. It feels like we're going to find death by ourselves, like we're running into the mouth of a gun. No matter how I think about it, it feels wrong."

  Yin Kuang said: "There is another way... Let the plot characters go, and then we'll be like flies buzzing around until Death designs them. Maybe we'll even have an intense shootout with American police. At the same time, we need to guard against Death's design."

  Bai Gui hesitated for a moment, then said: "Fine, fine, let's do it your way. At least this way, we're in control of our own destiny. Tell me, what do you want us to do?"

  Yin Kuang took out a few sheets of paper and handed them to Bai Jing, Tang Rouyu, Li Shuangmu, and others. "I've already investigated this warehouse," he said. "This is a series of death methods I designed. You just arrange the props according to the layout on the paper, and then wait for me to check each one individually. Remember, just put them in place and that's all. And be careful, okay? Hmm, I also think it's quite strange..."

  Bai Lian took the note from Yin Kuang, lowered his head to examine it carefully, and then heard Bai Lian's face turn slightly pale as he said: "I'm telling you, Yin Kuang, I really admire you. I really... don't know what to say about you. You not becoming a Grim Reaper is truly a waste." Tang Rou spoke up, saying: "Now I'm actually somewhat grateful to be in the same class as you." Li Shuangmu didn't say anything, only slightly furrowing her brow. Yin Kuang let out a bitter laugh and shook his head, saying: "As long as one dares to think, dares to act, anyone can come up with this. Moreover, this is also being forced by the principal and the Grim Reaper. We have no choice but to do this in order to survive. Alright then, let's split up and take action."

  Everyone responded with a murmur of "hmm" and then became busy.

  ……

  "Hmm, should this rebar be placed here? Tsk, tsk, if I were to get pierced by this thing and become a human kebab... tsk, tsk, it's too disgusting." Bai Jue shook his head and placed the thick steel bar at a higher position, slanting downwards, with one end stuck in a crevice and the other pointing towards the ground. Bai Jue looked down and saw Pan Longtao placing several round pipes on the ground. Bai Jue couldn't help but laugh: "Little Panzi, do you want to come try it out?" He pointed the rebar at Pan Longtao. Pan Longtao was startled and hastily retreated, "Bai Ge, spare me! This... this joke can't be made."

  Bai Gui stood on the iron frame, hahaha laughed, and suddenly the iron frame shook, and it fell backwards.

  "Whoa!" Bai Jue's face was covered in cold sweat as he hastily activated his half-wolf form. With a swift kick, he leaped onto a nearby wooden crate. When he turned back around, he saw the iron frame lying on the ground, with the rusty objects that had been placed on it scattered all over the floor.

  "My god, don't scare me like that." Bai Jue took a deep breath and stepped back, but suddenly his foot sank in, and the wooden box was crushed under his foot. Then, Bai Jue's body fell backwards. "No way... This is a three-meter-high platform, if I fall headfirst from here, even my physical strength can't withstand it."

  With a loud crash, the white-haired man heavily fell to the ground. Then, his eyes widened in shock! It turned out that the steel bar he had placed earlier had fallen down and was heading straight for him. "Is this really what they mean by 'reaping what you sow'?" Not far away, Pan Longtao rushed over to save him but ended up stepping on the pipe he had laid down himself and slid directly to the ground.

  Just as Bai Lian felt he was going to die, a hand suddenly stretched out and tightly grasped the steel bar. At this moment, the sharp end of the steel bar was only 10 centimeters away from Bai Lian's eyes.

  Yin Kuang gently put the steel bar on the ground and said, "I told you to be careful, but you didn't listen. If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been killed by your own design." Bai Jue hummed twice as he stood up, rubbing the back of his head where a lump had formed: "That was really too thrilling! It was almost fatal! Hmm, I actually received a message from the principal saying that I've been rescued!? The 4-hour safety period! His sister's husband, it's actually true!" Yin Kuang rolled his eyes and also let out a sigh of relief, saying: "It seems there are still loopholes to exploit. I had already designed everything, and Death God only needed to make some minor adjustments, but it would still be considered part of the design because it participated and was fatal. Hehe. However, fortune and misfortune are intertwined, and you've gained a not-so-short safety period. And Bai Jue, you've also proven one thing." Bai Jue was taken aback: "What thing?" Yin Kuang smiled slyly: "Death God has taken the bait."

  “… Hmph!!” Bai Lü directly stretched out his middle finger towards Yin Kuang, “Alright alright, you're impressive, even the God of Death can't calculate. Thinking about it, actually the principal and the God of Death are quite rigid too. Heh heh, and the principal probably didn't think that we would have someone like you who's a pervert, to come up with a plan to lure the God of Death and then rescue people.” As he spoke, Bai Lü became more and more admiring of Yin Kuang. Thinking about it, all along everyone was thinking about how to escape the God of Death's design, but no one thought about designing the God of Death - of course, the danger that came with it didn't need to be said, "self-design" was a purely suicidal behavior. Normal people wouldn't do such a thing. The principle of "placing oneself in death and then being reborn" everyone understood, but who could really achieve it?

  Perhaps because he had obtained a safe period, Bai Jing's heart felt relieved, and he stretched out his hand, saying: "Then, please lead the way to inspect. Except for this stick that almost pierced me, everything else is in place, including iron nails, steel wires, and steel pipes. Along the way, it can be said that every step is a killing machine. As long as we react quickly at that time, it's not difficult to save those dramatic characters. The path over there is the safe route. Everything that could threaten life has been cleared."

  As Bai Yue finished explaining, Yin Kuang nodded after checking one by one, saying: "Very good, just like this. You can put the steel bars on later. You guys can take a rest now. By the way, Pan Longtao is handed over to you. This guy has extraordinary perception and is very useful to the team. Try to ensure his safety." Bai Yue patted his chest with a loud thud, saying: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

  After a brief conversation, Yin Kuang arrived at the area under Li Shuangmu's responsibility. Of course, he also saw Qian Qian standing on one side. "Li Shuangmu, how is it?" Li Shuangmu placed an oil bucket on the edge of a box and turned back to say: "Everything is ready. We just need to wait for those plot characters' safety period to pass before we can take action." Yin Kuang nodded and said: "Your safety period has also passed, right? Do you want to go in and try?" If someone else had said this, Li Shuangmu would have thought he was trying to harm him. But since it was Yin Kuang who said it, Li Shuangmu didn't take offense and instead curled his lips to say: "Either I'll be killed by others or I'll kill myself, but I've decided not to go looking for death on my own."

  Yin Kuang smiled and said, "Alright alright. Then I'll go take a look at Tang Rouyu's place again. By the way, just now Bai Jue has already proven that my method is indeed feasible, although it was a bit crazy."

  "It's crazy." Lei Shuangmu added. Qian Qian on the side also said: "Yin Kuang, I really don't know what your brain is made of, you can even think of this method." Yin Kuang shrugged and said: "I said it was forced out. Alright, won't disturb you guys anymore."

  "Ah?!" Qianqian's face turned bright red, "You... what did you say?" Lishuangmu remained calm and nodded before walking away. Qianqian let out a soft sigh and said, "Yin Kuang, be careful." She then walked towards Lishuangmu with a stubborn expression. Yin Kuang also sighed, "This woman... never mind, it's none of my business anyway."
