Chapter 29:

The item dug out was actually a video camera's memory card, well protected in a plastic casing.

In Cock Robin, Sparrow said he killed Robin and Fly said it watched Robin die with his little eye.

The male teacher was homologous to the fly in the nursery rhyme. He held the burden of having watched everything on the video cameras but not revealing it. He even hid away the memory card and every night, would run around finding another place to hide it. It just wasn't clear if he was doing this under the ghost's control, or if he himself was doing it in his sleep.

While Xing Ye was thinking, Cao Qian just waited quietly and didn't ask anything.

After he arranged his thoughts, he noticed Cao Qian just sitting there like a robot and was a little baffled. "Why aren't you asking anything? You also didn't inquire about the leads I found at the piano."

"There's no point. The less people who know, the better." Cao Qian said, "Besides, I might not understand it even if you tell me. I'll just take charge when it comes to fighting."

There wasn't much interest in her eyes. She was very clear about her own position.

Such a teammate fit very well with Xing Ye's tastes. However, this wasn't normal.

Although it's said that "curiosity killed the cat", Xing Ye believed that humanity's desire for knowledge is what led them to improve themselves. However, Cao Qian seemed to have lost that.

Cao Qian noticed Xing Ye was still looking at her and said, "That's how I've always worked with my old teammate. At the beginning, I was also curious, but that's how he explained it to me."

Her desire for knowledge was destroyed by her teammate in the game world. Although it might be a good thing for the team, doing so would strangle that person's ability to think critically.

Being in the opposing fate camp already put them at a disadvantage. If you also lost the ability to think, it would be very difficult to press on.

Cao Qian's former teammate wasn't helping her and didn't care about her future at all. He just wanted to raise a goon to fight for him.

Xing Ye didn't like such ways of thinking. He had always been a leader. Only weak leaders would fear their subordinates being stronger than them. He was confident in himself, so his leadership style was to let everybody grow and develop their own styles.

His subordinates could be intelligent and ambitious, but as long as he himself was stronger, he didn't need to worry about being overtaken by them.

Xing Ye spoke, "The message I got at the piano was an english nursery rhyme called "Who Killed Cock Robin". You can find a translation of it online. I took the sheet music in the music room and found eighteen different notes when I compared it to the proper version online. When I pressed the eighteen notes on the half broken piano, it gave me the information about Cock Robin. I think the nursery rhyme is a very important clue to solving the seven legends so to prevent others from discovering it, I destroyed the piano."

Cao Qian was dazed, "Eighteen different notes? I only found sixteen. But that's not important, it's fine as long as you know."

"No," Xing Ye said solemnly, "I sincerely believe that you are a valuable teammate so you can't just close off your brain like that. You have to think for yourself and furthermore, take the initiative to think. It's good that you can fight, but humans aren't like machines. You can't just take yourself as a tool. When we run into more mysterious worlds, we need every person to think for themselves and interpret the mission task in their own ways. If you continue like this, it'll be very bad for you."
