Chapter 162: "Emergency Response Plan · Appendix B" (Bonus 2000 words, requesting monthly votes!)

"You're right."

Mountain Man nodded, "Going to the dormitory now means no elevator access.

The best-case scenario is being stuck in the hallway on the first floor, waiting for the elevator to start working.

If you're even less lucky, you'll be waiting under a streetlight…"

"But…"

"What if I can take the stairs to the dormitory?"

"Take… take the stairs?"

The trainee was stunned for a moment, his mind buzzing, not so much from shock, but because he vaguely remembered something about taking the stairs.

Unfortunately, his memory was a bit hazy, and he couldn't recall the specifics.

"I'm leaving."

Mountain Man patted him on the shoulder, "Good luck, kid, good luck favors fools… if you're foolish enough."

He forced a Homelander-esque smile, waved his hand, and pulled open the classroom door.

"Hoo—"

The dense fog outside the door seeped in through the crack, quickly dissipating under the light, as if Mountain Man had opened not a door, but a zero-degree refrigerator.

Mountain Man left the classroom with his bags and packages, closing the door behind him.

With a "thump," Mountain Man completely left the classroom.

The corridor lights cast his shadow on the slightly damp window glass, his back indicating that he would be down the steps in just a few steps.

Lin Yi looked at the classroom door in silence.

The rules regarding the stairs in the dormitory slowly emerged in his mind:

[The dormitory is equipped with a large number of elevators for students to use.

As long as it is between 6:00~7:40 and 21:00~22:00, you can take any elevator.

Do not try to understand how the elevator works…

…

Note: For dormitories below the 10th floor, you can use the stairs to travel up and down in emergencies, however, our school still does not recommend using the stairwells in the dormitory…]

"'Emergency situation', 'still not recommended'…"

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes.

"So the only explanation is that Mountain Man's dormitory… is less than or equal to the 10th floor."

Lin Yi pondered, "Which means, if the reserved dormitory is below the 10th floor, you can exploit a bug to enter and exit the dormitory outside of normal hours?"

"That's not right."

Wei Liang shook his head, denying Lin Yi's statement, "Based on my second playthrough experience, what Mountain Man is doing is not feasible."

"At this time, even if he really can enter the dormitory, there are no lights in the dormitory hallways."

Dormitory Rules — [The power supply system in the dormitory is uniformly controlled by the school.

There are no switches in any area.

Between 6:00~7:40 and 21:00~22:00, the dormitory will remain lit.

It is forbidden to enter dark areas not illuminated by lights.]

"'Forbidden to enter dark areas not illuminated by lights'."

Wei Liang cited this rule from the dormitory rules.

"Liangzi, are you saying that Mountain Man is planning to huddle under the streetlight of 'Dormitory - 096' until the dormitory lights turn on at 21:00?"

Lin Yi guessed.

It must be said that the serious Wei Liang did have a bit of the feel of a second-playthrough strategy group, but unfortunately, such an aura of a master only remained for this one sentence.

He immediately spread his hands and said, "He can also deliberately violate the rules and then desperately seek survival in the dormitory!"

The last rule of the Dormitory Rules: [Please be sure to abide by the above rules with firm cognition.

If you accidentally violate any of the above rules in the dormitory, please rely on luck to seek the help of the security guard.

Apart from that, based on the fact that 'the dormitory is one of the most dangerous areas on campus', our school will not and cannot provide you with any assistance.]

Almost every rule mentions "please abide by the rules" and "what will happen if you violate the rules", but those who firmly abide by the rules believe that they can abide by the rules, and then subconsciously ignore the consequences of violating the rules…

Lin Yi ignored Wei Liang's later words and weighed the feasibility of surviving under the streetlight for nearly two hours…

"Hey, Lao Lin, you wouldn't be thinking about following in that Mountain Man's footsteps and standing under the streetlight of the dormitory until 21:00, right?"

Wei Liang accurately predicted Lin Yi's thoughts as soon as he spoke.

Lin Yi opened his mouth, then shook his head slightly, "I thought about it, but it doesn't seem very feasible."

It wasn't that Lin Yi was talking nonsense to avoid being predicted by Wei Liang, but that he had indeed considered this matter.

With his current inspiration and level of pollution, walking on the layered-collapsing campus road would easily make him a target for humanoid sculptures.

Even if he ignored those humanoid sculptures and went straight to the streetlight of "Dormitory - 096", he couldn't guarantee that the waiting time would be safe.

As everyone knows, the fog is just the beginning of the layer collapse under abnormal weather, the real danger is the rainstorm that symbolizes the full arrival of abnormal weather.

Suppose he arrives at the streetlight of "Dormitory - 096" before 21:00, and then it rains, and the dormitory lights are not on, what should he do?

Not to mention, what if it rains before he even gets to the dormitory?

And if he stays in the classroom, he doesn't know what dangers he will encounter.

If it's just a power outage, then even if that conceptual sculpture comes in, the danger level shouldn't exceed the open-air campus under the rainstorm, right?

Lin Yi looked up at the pendulum clock.

18:58.

If there is no abnormal weather, there is even an hour and a half to explore the elevator in the teaching building.

Lin Yi shook his head gently, dispelled the idea, put away the note, and flipped through the H manga at hand.

But now, he couldn't get into the H manga.

Bored, he took out Pan Jian's digital camera from his small satchel, and on a whim, flipped through the album.

He pressed "previous page" one by one, watching what Pan Jian had taken along the way, killing time.

As the album was flipped in reverse, the scene of Pan Jian's time reversal on campus gradually appeared in Lin Yi's mind…

Before long, the classroom door was opened, and the homeroom teacher - 040 in a black stocking and hip-hugging skirt walked in gracefully with a folder in her hand.

With the arrival of homeroom teacher - 040, the originally noisy classroom suddenly quieted down, and their eyes followed her steps to the podium.

Noticing the movement, Lin Yi quickly put down the digital camera and looked over.

"Oh, Teacher Lin is here!"

Wei Liang's eyes lit up, smacking his lips, it seemed that only dynamic beauties could bring his soul back from static works.

"Black stockings also hit your XP?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but say.

"Can't look at white stocking lolis, can't I look at black stocking older sisters?"

Wei Liang curled his lips, his eyes following homeroom teacher - 040's two alternating legs, until she was blocked by the podium, and then reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

After homeroom teacher - 040 arrived, she looked at the writing on the blackboard, thoughtfully.

After a moment, she turned around, opened the blue folder, and cleared her throat, saying:

"We will take attendance early today.

Raise your hand and say 'here' to indicate when your name is called, you don't need to come over to check your name and student number."

"Song Rentou."

A trainee who hadn't participated in the discussion shrank in the corner and raised his hand.

Homeroom teacher - 040 glanced at him and put a "√" on the list.

Homeroom teacher - 040 continued to call names, and people in the classroom raised their hands one after another.

…

"Hang Ziming."

"Hang Ziming?"

Seeing that no one responded, homeroom teacher - 040 couldn't help but call out again.

A classmate who was daydreaming quickly came back to his senses and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Eh, here! Here! Teacher, I'm here!"

Homeroom teacher - 040 glanced at him, withdrew her gaze and put a "√" on the list.

"Chen Bei."

"Here!"

"Ning Hongsheng."

"Ning Hongsheng?"

"Ning Hongsheng… Nie Yun."

"Here."

…

"Wei Liang."

"Teacher Lin, I'm here."

Wei Liang straightened his posture, put on a sultry cool pose, straightened the brim of his duckbill cap and blew on the bangs in front of his forehead.

It was a pity that the homeroom teacher "Lin Shiling" who should have cooperated with Wei Liang's performance chose to turn a blind eye, and after marking a "√", she continued: "Bai Fangshuo."

"Bai Fangshuo?"

"Bai Fangshuo… Lin Yi."

"Here."

Lin Yi raised his hand to indicate.

When he put down his hand, he couldn't help but frown, and had some doubts about the homeroom teacher's way of taking attendance.

Bai Fangshuo, on the morning of May 7th, was called by homeroom teacher - 039, and at that time homeroom teacher - 039 marked an "×", so logically speaking, there was no need to call his name again, how come… she's still calling his name?

"Could it be that the list is different?"

Homeroom teacher - 040 called names one after another, the voices rising and falling, Pan Jian, Zhou Yuting, and others were called one after another, without exception getting an "×", then it was Li Huiyuan's turn, and then slowly all the names were called.

Lin Yi pondered: "The problem doesn't seem to be with the list, but with… the way of taking attendance?"

"And the names called by homeroom teacher - 040 are not just over 90…"

Lin Yi noticed that the number of people called by homeroom teacher - 040 was about 120, while the number of people in the classroom was at most over 90.

And he also noticed that, during the entire process of taking attendance, some non-human classmates seemed to have raised their hands.

"Aren't those non-human classmates all transformed from humanoid sculptures?

Why would they respond to the homeroom teacher's words?"

Lin Yi felt more and more that there was something fishy about the [attendance taking], and if he wanted to know the inner logic of [attendance taking], perhaps he could find the answer in the "Homeroom Teacher Rules" or "Teacher Rules".

Moreover, homeroom teacher - 040 indiscriminately called the names of those trainees who were known to have been killed.

After the homeroom teacher finished taking attendance, she slowly put down the blue folder, and her dark eyes slowly swept across the entire classroom.

The aura of the girl next door suddenly changed, and the whole person seemed to exude some kind of powerful aura like a sharp blade out of its sheath.

The trainees who were swept by her couldn't help but keep silent.

"Next, I will call the names of some classmates.

Those whose names are called, please take your belongings and leave your seats to sit near the classroom door."

Homeroom teacher - 040 began to flip through the list in the blue folder:

"Song Rentou, Liu Jing…"

She didn't give the trainees in the classroom a chance to prepare, and directly announced the names one after another like firing a gun.

Those whose names were called were still a little confused, but she didn't explain, and still slowly called names.

"Wei Liang, Lin Yi… Li Huiyuan…"

Wei Liang quickly sat up straight, then tidied up the H manga on the folding desk and left his seat neatly.

Lin Yi also stood up. He hadn't brought many things with him; even his schoolbag was left in the dormitory. If you didn't count the bedsheets he bought from the convenience store, he was practically empty-handed.

Li Huiyuan also braced herself on the armrest of the chair row and stood up. Lin Yi quickly went over to support her, a sight that made Wei Liang grit his teeth like a bulldog.

"Listen carefully, those whose names I've called. I'll only say this once…"

The homeroom teacher - 040's gaze swept across the classroom like a sharp blade, as if a general stood on the platform issuing orders before a campaign.

"Some emergencies have occurred on campus. Now, according to the 'Emergency Response Plan · Appendix B' in the 《Homeroom Teacher's Handbook》, I will, as the homeroom teacher of Class 2, Group B, begin guidance work here…"

Homeroom Teacher - 040 took out a palm-sized booklet from inside her suit, displayed it like she was holding a tiger tally, and then put it away again.

Lin Yi noticed that the booklet had a gold-stamped pattern of a world tree surrounded by a crown of thorns. Next to the roots of the world tree were some words. Although he was far away, his vision at that moment was like an eight-power scope, clearly seeing the content of the words—《Homeroom Teacher's Handbook》.

"Time is of the essence. From now on, I will only say everything once. You can choose to believe and obey my arrangements, or you can choose to ignore them. But if you choose to ignore them, the school will not be responsible for any dangerous events you encounter tonight."

"When the time on the wall reaches 20:00, I need you to leave the teaching building and return to the dormitory building as quickly as possible."

"Don't worry about the problems caused by abnormal weather. Due to some special reasons, the rainstorm will not arrive before 22:00. If some raindrops float on the road, don't panic, stay calm, and you still have a chance to reach the dormitory building."

"The fog outside is thick, but before the rainstorm arrives, this fog is not enough to obscure the light of the street lamps."

"You need to walk out of the scope of the teaching building along the direction of decreasing street lamp numbers, and then a few street lamp poles will appear in front of you, including but not limited to 'Cafeteria - 001', 'Dormitory - 001', and some street lamp poles in other areas…"

"No matter how many street lamp poles you see, remember! You only need to find the 'Dormitory - 001' street lamp pole. After entering this area, walk in the direction of increasing street lamp numbers until you reach 'Dormitory - 096', and you will arrive at the front of the dormitory building."

"In this process, you will definitely encounter various interferences. This interference includes, but is not limited to, 'seeing a street lamp pole with its light off', 'discovering that the road under your feet is twisting and deforming', 'hearing some familiar calls from behind', etc… Some interferences I can't even tell you about, but please remember that your safety is in your own hands. Ignore any interference from the outside world. The only things you can trust are the security guards, the street lamps, and yourself!"

"Even if they are your acquaintances, it is best to be sufficiently vigilant towards them, unless you really have a life-or-death friendship."

"If you find yourself losing your way on the way to the dormitory building, then be sure to find the nearest street lamp at the first moment you notice this problem, and then don't move! Stay directly within the range of the street lamp's light and carefully observe the surrounding situation until the security guard arrives."

"Between 20:00 and 21:00, the security guards will patrol the area between the teaching building and the dormitory building. When you are unsure of your location, just follow the security guards and don't leave their side no matter where they pass. You will always have a moment to reach the dormitory building."

"The current time is… 19:15. You have 45 minutes to do some things, such as going to the toilet, resting, etc. When 20:00 arrives, leave the classroom immediately. Did you all hear clearly?!"

"Understood!" The trainees didn't dare to be careless and agreed one after another.

Homeroom Teacher - 040 continued: "The rest of you can choose to abide by the student rules and the teaching building rules to stay in the classroom overnight, or you can choose to abide by the emergency response plan I said."

"By the way, don't think that you can secretly relieve yourselves in an unmanned corner of the classroom just because the fog is too thick. You will bear any consequences caused by this."

After she finished speaking, her gaze fell on Li Huiyuan: "Li Huiyuan, come with me."

"Ah?" Li Huiyuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up, her eyes moving back and forth between Lin Yi and Homeroom Teacher - 040, looking very much like she was seeking help from her deskmate after being called on by the teacher in class and not knowing the answer.

"Go ahead, listen to the homeroom teacher's arrangements." Lin Yi gave her a reassuring look.

He was already helpless with Li Huiyuan's situation. In this situation, stubbornly holding onto Li Huiyuan would definitely kill her.

Homeroom Teacher - 040 failed to have her buy student commemorative coins at the convenience store, but Homeroom Teacher - 040 said there was still a chance, so naturally, she needed to listen to her now.

Perhaps because of the experience with Homeroom Teacher - 039, Lin Yi believed that the homeroom teachers had undergone professional training and possessed the professional qualities to deal with various emergencies.

So Lin Yi helped her walk slowly down the steps.

"Don't help her." Homeroom Teacher - 040 interrupted Lin Yi's actions, "The stiffer you are, the more you need to move, otherwise it will only make the situation worse."

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, hesitated slightly, and then heard Li Huiyuan say: "Lin Yi, I can do it."

So Lin Yi let go of Li Huiyuan, watching her support herself on the chair row, stepping down the steps one step at a time, and walked to Homeroom Teacher - 040's side.

"Let's go." Homeroom Teacher - 040 tucked the blue folder under her arm and then led Li Huiyuan towards the classroom door.

The moment the classroom door was opened, a thin layer of frost spread out from the crack of the door, and the thick fog poured in as if its life depended on it, but it quickly dissipated after being illuminated by the light.

"Keep up with my pace." Homeroom Teacher - 040 said to Li Huiyuan, "The road back to the office is only a few steps, but for you, it may be very long, so keep up."

After she finished speaking, she opened the classroom door wide. At this time, the thick fog outside the door had already submerged the corridor. Although the corridor lights could still be faintly seen struggling to shine in the thick fog, these lights could no longer make people feel at ease.

Homeroom Teacher - 040 narrowed her eyes, and her long legs in black stockings and high heels probed into the thick fog.

「Da!」

Her high heels landed, and her figure followed, pushing forward. The surrounding fog was immediately torn apart like it was being cleaved by a battle axe.

At this moment, the girl next door was like a goddess of war, cutting through the waves and killing into the fog.

"Remember to close the door when you come out."

She turned her head and glanced at Li Huiyuan. Under the fog, her dark eyes were already as bright as stars, blooming with a fiery light like the sun, so dazzling that it seemed impossible to look directly at them.

Li Huiyuan felt a stinging pain in her eyes, and even her body seemed to be scorched, subconsciously reaching out to cover her eyes from looking at them.

After struggling to leave the classroom, Li Huiyuan did not forget Homeroom Teacher - 040's instructions and reached out to close the door.

With a "click", the classroom door was closed, and the two worlds seemed to be separated from each other.

"Stop looking, the long legs in black stockings have gone far away." Wei Liang wiped his saliva and withdrew his gaze with some regret.

"I was looking at Li Huiyuan." Lin Yi corrected.

"You confessed without being forced!" Wei Liang curled his lips and smiled, "If you didn't see it, how would you know I was talking about Teacher Lin's legs?"

"Although, Teacher Lin's little butt is not as good as the first homeroom teacher, but her legs are really good-looking!"

This Wei Liang, who showed the expression "That's right, I'm talking about Old Lin and me" when Homeroom Teacher - 040 said "life-or-death friendship" and elbowed Lin Yi along the way, made an even more sharp comment at this moment.

"…" Lin Yi was speechless for a while, "I was really looking at Li Huiyuan."

"Okay, I admit I took a look." He couldn't argue with Wei Liang. Seeing the other party gradually revealing an interrogative look, he had no choice but to admit it first under the threat of lewdness, "I seemed to have a moment just now where I felt that Teacher Lin's eyes were emitting golden light."

"You still have the nerve to say that when you saw the beautiful legs in black stockings, the light in your eyes was even more intense, feeling like it was about to pierce through the dawn!" Wei Liang curled his mouth in disdain.

"I mean real golden light, like the security guard's, bulingbuling golden light." Lin Yi emphasized.

Wei Liang waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't worry about so much, honestly wait until the time comes to escape back to the dormitory building."

After saying that, Wei Liang took a deep breath and transformed back into a pervert, wandering in a fantasy world of fist-to-flesh and gun-to-person.

Looking at Wei Liang's focused little eyes, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little envious.

He looked at the trainees around him who had been called by Homeroom Teacher - 040 and had their seats changed, remembering their faces one by one, while counting their number.

There were a total of 8 people.

If you count him, Wei Liang, Shan Nan who left the classroom early, and Li Huiyuan who was taken away by Homeroom Teacher - 040, that would be 12 people.

And the current number of trainees in the classroom is 33, which means…

「Homeroom Teacher - 040 said that we must return to the dormitory between 20:00 and 21:00, while the rest can stay here overnight…」

「Is her distinguishing standard inspiration? Because in some special situations, people with high inspiration are bound to die if they stay in the classroom, so they have to risk a very high risk to return to the dormitory for the night?」
