#126 - A strange wound with green gas [1000 words more! ]
"Is this one of the transformation paths that Young Master Tian wants to know?"
"However, these can only be considered as supplementing the details of the path. The entire path is still incomplete..."
"At least, we still need to know how to get to the art building after obtaining the student commemorative coin?"
"Should I take the elevator? The teaching building elevator, or the dormitory building elevator?"
"Or...should I take that non-existent road? I probably won't take this road. There are too many strange things about this road compared to the elevator."
Lin Yi pondered for a moment and slowly dismissed the idea.
These were all speculations about the subsequent path, and there were no related clues for the time being.
And now there was something even more confusing than the student commemorative coin—the convenience store.
On the third day of entering S City University, that is, the 42nd hour of entering the school, he finally came into contact with clues related to the convenience store.
Was he finally going to have an intersection with the convenience store?
Even if this was an intersection indirectly caused by Li Huiyuan.
What was intriguing was that he didn't even see a shadow of the convenience store when he was eating in the student cafeteria before.
However, the sports student bought biscuits in the convenience store, and Wei Liang also mentioned the convenience store when chatting with him, but...that was it.
Lin Yi originally wanted to ask, but seeing Wei Liang's somewhat guilty look, he didn't ask.
Where was the convenience store?
According to the student code, the convenience store was on the first floor of the cafeteria.
But he hadn't seen the convenience store these few times he went to the cafeteria.
"It can't be that ghostly No. 10 dining window, right?" He smiled mockingly and slandered in his heart with black humor.
He hadn't even seen the convenience store, but the sports students and art students were able to buy what they needed in the convenience store, and even the art students seemed to be able to buy some food.
Was this the meaning of the existence of the convenience store?
Directly providing three resource supply chains?
Lin Yi felt that the convenience store was not that simple, and besides, there seemed to be a "non-existent" convenience store owner in the convenience store.
“Non-existent” was a very strange definition, often involving the concept of layers, so the existence of the convenience store owner suddenly became unpredictable.
"Don't let the convenience store owner be not human." Lin Yi muttered.
In any case, it seemed that the convenience store had a transcendent position in the cafeteria and even the entire S City University campus, or the builders of S City University gave the convenience store a very terrifying positioning.
“You mean, the class teacher asked you to go to the convenience store to buy student commemorative coins when you have dinner? Did she say anything else, such as how to swipe your card for dinner? What should I do when I go back to the dormitory at night?” Lin Yi asked seriously.
Li Huiyuan thought for a while, then shook her head slightly: “She only said this, nothing else... Oh, right! The teacher said to go eat after getting the student commemorative coin, swipe...the student commemorative coin.”
Lin Yi's expression darkened.
"Can I swipe a student commemorative coin for dinner? It seems that the student commemorative coin is indeed a kind of identity certificate... An art student?"
"And then?"
“Then, I’ll go to the office to find her after leaving the cafeteria. She said that she would wait until that time to tell me what to do next.”
“In other words, there is a situation where you can’t find the convenience store and get the student commemorative coin?”
Li Huiyuan was silent for a while, then nodded.
“By the way, don’t you have to swipe your student ID to buy things at the convenience store?”
“The teacher said that the student commemorative coin is free.”
Lin Yi frowned. It sounded as if the student commemorative coin in the convenience store was something that could be obtained at will. This coincided with the art student code, but...there must be hidden dangers in "free" things!
The student code also specifically emphasized that the student commemorative coin does not exist...
But if you can only see the student commemorative coin when there is a problem with cognition, doesn't that mean that those who hold student IDs but have cognitive errors can also see the student commemorative coin?
If there are some people who like to be greedy for petty gains and see the 0-yuan purchase of student commemorative coins, will they be able to hold back?
Lin Yi rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little headache... But fortunately, he didn't need to worry about this situation.
“Did the class teacher tell you anything else?” Lin Yi felt that there should be more information than this.
“It seems...not.” Li Huiyuan shook her head again.
"Nothing?" Lin Yi touched his chin, "Didn't she tell you which passage to take to enter the student cafeteria?"
“Uh...she didn’t say.”
Lin Yi dragged out his tone and said "Um": "If she didn't say it, then does that mean it's still the default to take the student passage?..."
“It should be, right? You shouldn’t be able to take other passages, right?” Li Huiyuan said in a low voice.
Lin Yi nodded slightly: “Then are you going to stay here next, and then wait until the time comes to have dinner?”
“If you...need me as cannon fodder now, I can follow...” Li Huiyuan seemed to have made a decision.
Lin Yi said in surprise: “Are you sure?”
Li Huiyuan pursed her lips and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear: “I always feel that things won’t be that simple... So, if I agree to follow you now, can you...help me find the location of the convenience store when I have dinner?”
Lin Yi thought for a while, then shook his head: “This is beyond my ability, so I dare not make any guarantees to you.”
Li Huiyuan heard this and lowered her head a little unwillingly: “Then...then I’ll find it myself, I’m sorry...”
Lin Yi didn't speak, just nodded silently.
If Li Huiyuan showed a weak expression, he would pat his chest and make some guarantees that he couldn't do for the other party's crisis, then that would be a purely foolish clown act, and Lin Yi would never do that.
In fact, he could carefully observe the internal environment of the student cafeteria again during the gap between queuing for food, and try to find the location of the convenience store;
In fact, he could also pretend to be looking for a table after getting his meal and wander around a little in the safe area of the student cafeteria...
But these were all things for later. He couldn't make a promise to Li Huiyuan now. It was better to keep things that he might not be able to do in his stomach. It was more useful to do them when the time came than to say them in advance.
So, sometimes it was necessary to be clear about what to say when refusing, so that Li Huiyuan would really put all her chips on him.
“By the way...” Li Huiyuan adjusted her emotions with silence, and then slowly asked, “Student Lin, can you explain to me what ‘pollution’ means?”
“Pollution? Did the class teacher tell you something?”
“She didn’t say much, she only mentioned that I was ‘polluted’, and then asked me not to trust any strangers from now until I got the student commemorative coin and went back to the office to see her. She didn’t explain anything to me...”
“I thought that you mentioned pollution when you were chatting before, so I wanted to ask what it meant...”
Lin Yi asked back: “The class teacher told you not to trust any strangers, and you turned around and told me everything?”
“Wasn’t it you who asked?”
“You said it as soon as I asked?”
“Otherwise? I was thinking...we shouldn’t be considered strangers anymore, right?”
Lin Yi couldn't help but say: “We’ve only met twice from yesterday to today!”
“But I...”
But I have no way to trust anyone other than you. Compared to others, you are no longer a “stranger”... Li Huiyuan pursed her lips and didn't say these words that sounded a little cheesy.
Lin Yi sighed faintly, thinking that this girl was really at the end of her rope and was trying anything, even daring to board the plane of a dying pilot.
“The concept of ‘pollution’...is actually a bit complicated to explain.” Lin Yi sorted out his thoughts a little, and then told Li Huiyuan the concept of pollution in a relatively easy-to-understand way.
Li Huiyuan turned pale with fright and opened her mouth in fear.
Lin Yi waited for her for a while, then glanced at the time on his watch again.
12:23.
He glanced at the pendulum clock on the blackboard again, the time was consistent.
Then he withdrew his gaze and looked at Li Huiyuan and asked: “I’ve asked almost everything, do you have anything else you want to say?”
Li Huiyuan shook her head.
“In that case...” Lin Yi then made a request to re-examine her back, “Turn your back to me again, I feel that the examination on the road before was not careful enough. The green-aproned chef seems to have left something related to pollution on your body.”
Li Huiyuan was initially hesitant, but seeing Lin Yi's solemn expression and hearing him say it might be related to pollution, she agreed and silently turned her back to him.
Lin Yi sat upright, seriously observing Li Huiyuan's back… …
To be honest, Lin Yi was also very apprehensive. After observing for almost a minute, Lin Yi's expression gradually turned ugly.
The newest novels are first published at 6_9_shu_ba!
It wasn't because he had discovered something terribly frightening, but because—
“Damn it… …Why can't that exposed vision be activated no matter what?!”
“This is really killing me! I'm so anxious!”
Fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Lin Yi's forehead.
“Um… …Lin, Lin classmate, how is it?” Li Huiyuan asked nervously.
“Well… …This… …” Lin Yi dragged out his tone, in a dilemma, not knowing what to say.
His reaction caused Li Huiyuan's already hanging heart to plummet to the bottom, and her face also turned ugly… …
But at that moment, Lin Yi seemed to have discovered something. On Li Huiyuan's back, there seemed to be an extra scratch as thin as a strand of hair!
But he clearly remembered that he didn't see this scratch during the previous examination!
Was it because the examination wasn't careful enough, or was it because the scratch was too faint to see clearly?
But the scratch was obviously very faint, yet he couldn't see it clearly before, but now he could see it clearly!
It was a vertical scratch, as if a strand of hair had been pulled straight and then stuck to her back.
“Could it be that it only appeared now?”
“Li Huiyuan.”
“Hmm?”
“There's an extra scratch on your back. Do you feel uncomfortable?”
“Ah? What scratch?”
“A very thin one, like a scratch from a kitten.”
“I don't feel anything… …Where is it?” She tried to reach behind her to touch her back, but even though she touched the scratch, she didn't have any reaction.
“It's here.” Lin Yi grabbed her finger and guided her to touch the location of the scratch.
“I don't feel anything.” Li Huiyuan touched it several times without any reaction. “Why don't you try?”
Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded: “Okay.”
He then stretched out his finger and gently touched the line of the scratch.
“Ouch!” At this moment, Li Huiyuan couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation, subconsciously straightening her chest forward, away from Lin Yi's finger, “It's… …a little itchy!”
She twisted the muscles in her back.
“It doesn't mat…” Lin Yi's word "ter" stopped abruptly, because his attention was completely drawn to the terrifying scene before him.
Li Huiyuan's back was now exuding wisps of smoke like an incense burner. The smoke was very thin, like the smoke that rises after lighting incense to worship ancestors during festivals.
Very thin, rising slowly, and then hovering over her head, lingering for a long time.
What terrified Lin Yi was that the smoke was presenting that eerie green color!
Just as Li Huiyuan subconsciously twisted her back because it was itchy, to the point where the range of her movement exceeded a certain limit, a tiny crack opened in the flesh on her back!
And the form that the crack showed when it healed was that hair-thin scratch!
That scratch wasn't a scratch at all, but a wound, an eerie wound!!!
A strong sense of discomfort and eeriness rose in Lin Yi's heart. At this moment, Li Huiyuan in his eyes was like some kind of humanoid creature wearing a "Li Huiyuan" flesh shell, and a crack had opened on the back of that shell. When the crack wasn't sealed tightly, the green aura escaped from it!
He suddenly noticed a key point!
Underneath Li Huiyuan's black sports vest, there seemed to be an even larger “crack”!
“That green spot of light!”
Lin Yi thought of how he had previously observed a brighter green spot of light on Li Huiyuan's sports vest through that exposed vision.
“Li Huiyuan!” Lin Yi called out to Li Huiyuan, “Bear with it, I seem to have discovered something!”
Li Huiyuan's body suddenly stiffened. Lin Yi took the opportunity to grab her sports vest and pulled it hard.
“Forgive me!”
With this pull, a puff of green smoke instantly rose from inside the sports vest, like setting off a firecracker on her back!
As soon as the thick smoke appeared, it rushed straight towards Lin Yi's face, like a weasel farting or a cuttlefish squirting ink, about to catch him off guard. He actually blurted out a breath, subconsciously wanting to blow away this dark green smoke.
But not even knowing what this thing was, Lin Yi's subconscious behavior naturally couldn't achieve the expected effect. But a fortunate scene appeared. Lin Yi's chosen back seat was right under the sunlight, so when the dark green smoke rushed out, it was immediately scorched by the sunlight. With a "whoosh," it separated into some green powder particles and white powder particles, and then drifted away.
When the green aura completely disappeared, Lin Yi found a small white granular substance inside Li Huiyuan's sports vest.
He stretched out two fingers, pinched it out, and put it in front of Li Huiyuan: “This thing has been sticking to your back inside your sports vest. Can you feel it?”
Li Huiyuan took this nail-sized white plaster-like fragment, and her brows gradually furrowed.
“It's been on my back? That's strange, it's obviously not thin… …But I really can't feel it there. It looks like a plaster fragment… …”
She tried to pinch it, and this white granular substance immediately shattered into powder and dissipated on the spot.
Lin Yi glanced at her back. At this moment, the hair-thin line had faded a lot, and it no longer emitted green smoke, but it only faded a little, without any tendency to disappear.
“The scratch is still there.” Lin Yi said, “It looks like when the Green Hat grabbed you, it scratched your back, and then the nail broke on your back.”
“But there's one thing I don't understand. Even if that thing broke, it shouldn't be embedded in your vest. What's going on with it?”
While speaking, Lin Yi couldn't help but pull open the sports vest to confirm it again. There were no traces at the location where the plaster fragment existed. There were no pressure marks formed by the tight binding of the sports vest on Li Huiyuan's back… …Everything was as if it had never existed at all.
Lin Yi clicked his tongue, frowned, and subconsciously let go. The sports vest snapped back, catching Li Huiyuan off guard.
Li Huiyuan rubbed her back, her cheeks slightly red, and turned her head somewhat dissatisfiedly. Just as she was about to mutter something, she suddenly saw Wei Liang's wide-mouthed, helpless, and heartbroken look.
Wei Liang was so shocked that his hand loosened, and the carefully selected H manga fell to the ground with a crash.
“Damn, what are you… …practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra?!”
“Lao Lin, you have such a good thing and you didn't call your brother! Secretly helping people rub their backs and apply oil!!!” Wei Liang pretended to cover his face and cry, putting on a painful expression of "I treat you as a good brother, but you secretly send me away when you have good things… …"
Lin Yi called out "good fellow" at the peak performance. I won't watch the next Academy Awards ceremony without you.
“…” Lin Yi spread his hands helplessly. Facing Wei Liang, the mouth-strong king who claimed to have touched silk stockings after touching them, he decided to explain in the simplest way. So he said, “Yes, we are practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.”
“Get lost! I don't believe it!” Wei Liang didn't believe it at all, but seeing Li Huiyuan's slightly blushing cheeks, he had a sense of sight of a small Japanese movie scene, like the famous Warcraft plot of "I'm cutting vegetables in the kitchen while my good friend is making love behind the kitchen door and I don't even know it… …"
