Chapter 11 Corridor Lights Flashing
Chapter 11 Corridor Lights Flashing
Lin Yi was horrified, and his pupils slowly dilated.
At that moment, he felt an icy breath seeping out from his internal organs, as if it was going to freeze all the pores on his body.
He even forgot to breathe for a moment, but wisps of white air were still coming out from his mouth and nose.
He shuddered suddenly and looked carefully, only to find that there seemed to be only overlapping mist in the shadow of the corridor, and there was no suspicious figure at all.
"Are you dazzled?"
He frowned and squinted, feeling confused.
But no matter what, that indescribable feeling of fear and strange hallucinations did not seem fake.
Lin Yi seemed to realize something. He took a deep breath, put the thought aside, and tried his best to suppress the urge to think in this direction.
He began to observe his surroundings.
The decoration style of this teaching building is obviously from the 1920s. The walls are covered with half-person-high tiles, and the windowsills and above are painted pure white.
However, the area of wall plaster close to the ground has shown signs of turning gray and black, which is a sign that the teaching building is exposed to moisture all year round.
Lin Yi looked up at the ceiling of the corridor again.
There is an incandescent lamp at regular intervals in the corridor, and as the line of sight extends, the incandescent lamps disappear to the end of the corridor.
There were some black particles deposited in the lampshade of the incandescent lamp, which seemed to be the accumulated dead bodies of mosquitoes.
All signs indicate that this is not a newly built campus, but rather one that has been continuously renovated.
"Is there really a basement, but it's not open to the public for some reason?"
"So, does that mean there are also Building D and others...?"
"Wait wait wait, I can't think about these things..."
"Think about the teaching building..."
“The teaching building also has lights, but why are they not as effective as the street lights?”
"Is it the light or something else?"
This time Lin Yi was honest. He only tried briefly and gave up thinking the moment the question was raised.
He continued to observe, and suddenly found that there was a female guard next to the male guard. There was also a team of people lined up on the female guard's side, but he didn't notice it at first.
Before they knew it, Lin Yi and Wei Liang were standing at the bathroom door.
A classmate walked out of the bathroom, and Lin Yi, who was standing at the door, half moved to the side to let him pass.
Just as that classmate passed by Lin Yi, Lin Yi suddenly felt a strange and uncomfortable feeling in his heart.
He then turned around and looked at the classmate.
The student moved forward slowly with his body stiff, looking dull and slow.
But just when Lin Yi looked at him, he suddenly reacted, his body collapsed, and then he slowly turned sideways like a puppet being hung by a string, and looked towards where Lin Yi was.
Lin Yi turned around when the other party seemed to be turning around, and then went into the bathroom.
During the whole process, he restrained himself from thinking too much about that classmate.
But even after he finished using the toilet, that strange and uncomfortable feeling still enveloped him tightly.
He then went to the sink, washed his hands, splashed some water on his face, and then looked at himself in the mirror.
The self in the mirror looked more haggard than he remembered, and the bags under his eyes were slightly darker. Lin Yi was a little surprised. He had only been in school for a short time, but he looked decadent as if he had stayed up all night.
He washed his face a few more times, but the discomfort did not disappear, but became even stronger.
He suddenly thought of it, and when he looked up after washing his face, he looked in the mirror.
The mirror was angled to face the corridor, but he could not find the classmate in the mirror.
He breathed a sigh of relief, shook his hands dry, turned around, and a huge face appeared directly in his sight.
It was unknown when that classmate came back and was already beside him. When he turned around, he bumped head-on into the latter.
Lin Yi was so frightened that he subconsciously straightened up.
"Classmate, were you looking for me just now?" the classmate asked gently.
Under the bright yellow incandescent light, there was a twitching expression on the classmate's face, as if he wanted to smile, but his expression was not positive, which looked very strange.
This expression formed a sharp contrast with his tone.
"No." Lin Yi quickly shook his head to deny it, and tried his best to make his tone look normal. "My neck just felt uncomfortable, so I moved it a little bit."
The classmate asked, "This is what happens when you sit for too long. Which class are you from?"
"I'm from Class 6, Group B." Lin Yi blurted out.
"Class 6?" the student asked in confusion, "Class 6 is upstairs, why are you here on the first floor?"
"There were too many people upstairs, so we came down." Lin Yi said quickly, "But I didn't expect that there would be just as many people downstairs."
The classmate said, "There are quite a lot of people here at this hour. I'm also from Class 6. Can we go together?"
Lin Yi's expression froze slightly, and he wanted to say something terrible in his heart. At this moment, Wei Liang finished washing his hands and came to Lin Yi's side.
"Let's go, Lao Lin." Wei Liang urged, "It's getting late."
"Yeah, it's getting late, let's go together." The expression on the classmate's face finally gradually calmed down.
An extremely standard smile.
Just like those weird students in the classroom.
"Ah?" Wei Liang was slightly stunned, turned to look at Lin Yi, pointed his finger between the two of them, and asked in confusion, "Just met?"
"Yeah..." Lin Yi forced a smile.
"Let's go, time is running out." The classmate urged, "Come with me!"
As he spoke, he walked out of the male guards talking to himself, looking like he was leading the way, and turned to the left.
Lin Yi then noticed that there was a sunken building area on the left side of the toilet. That area was in the shadows where the incandescent light could not reach and was covered by floating mist.
The classmate walked into the shadows without hesitation, then reached out and pressed the wall.
A "↑" arrow pattern on the wall lit up.
There was actually an elevator there.
"For Class 6... just take the elevator and walk a few steps to get there. Come on," the classmate invited.
“?!!”
Lin Yi and Wei Liang's pupils both trembled.
As soon as he heard the word "elevator", even Wei Liang suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Let's go!" Lin Yi grabbed Wei Liang's hand and rushed into the corridor with him.
"Damn, you react quickly now!" Wei Liang was dragged by Lin Yi like a kite, but his extraordinary physical fitness was fully demonstrated at this moment.
When he was first dragged, his steps were very unsteady and his legs were almost twisted together.
But after a few breaths, his pace stabilized and he started running side by side with Lin Yi.
"Go, go, go! Go back to the classroom!" Although Wei Liang was very panicked, his breathing was very steady.
Lin Yi looked at him in surprise.
"What are you looking at? After all, I have participated in wilderness survival!" Wei Liang couldn't help but say.
Lin Yi suddenly felt that Wei Liang, who was able to participate in that program, did have some valuable knowledge.
Lin Yi looked back, only to see that the classmate did not chase after them. Instead, he stood woodenly at the elevator entrance, staring at them with cold eyes.
"Eh, you didn't catch up?"
"Wait...!!" After being some distance away from the elevator entrance, Lin Yi suddenly discovered that as the fog increased and the light dimmed, the classmate standing at the elevator entrance was exactly the same as the thin figure he had vaguely seen standing in the shadow of the corridor before!
“He was the one I saw at first?!”
A huge wave instantly rose in Lin Yi's heart. At this moment, a heavy force came on his hand, as if someone had grabbed him all of a sudden.
Wei Liang caught him.
"Lao Lin, slow down, slow down, slow down, don't run! We're here!"
"Ah?!" Lin Yi was stunned. When he looked up, he suddenly found that the doorplate of Class 2, Group B was standing on the wall not far away.
"this……?"
"You're back so soon?!"
“Why is there such a big difference in the round trip time?”
Many questions suddenly popped up in his mind subconsciously.
And at this moment, the thoughts that he had originally suppressed also popped up like mushrooms after rain. Although he had not thought about it carefully, the feeling of exhaustion had begun to spread uncontrollably from the depths of his heart.
"Old Lin, do you like black stockings or white stockings?" At this moment, Wei Liang's low growl sounded in Lin Yi's ears.
"Ah?" Lin Yi was stunned, his original thoughts were suddenly overwhelmed by the black and white silks.
Almost out of gentlemanly instinct, many legs of black silk queens and white silk lolita flashed through his mind, and he blurted out without hesitation:
"More black stockings."
As soon as these words came out, the tiredness in Lin Yi's heart disappeared instantly.
"Hypocritical! I clearly remember that you are a lolita lover with white stockings!" Wei Liang said disdainfully. While they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of the classroom of Class 2, Group B.
The door of the classroom was ajar, and the warmth behind the door dispersed the fog at the door like a fire.
"Let's go!" Wei Liang pushed open the door and rushed into the classroom.
Lin Yi followed closely behind.
After entering the classroom, Lin Yi wanted to close the door.
"Wait." The head teacher held the door open, "Don't close the door yet, I'll close it later."
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, teacher."
"Tell us your names and student numbers." The head teacher opened the folder and took out a list.
Lin Yi took a quick look and found that some of the names on the list were marked with a cross, while some were marked with a check mark.
Scanning at the speed of light, he found that some people's names had neither a check nor a cross after them, but an underscore.
"Lin Yi, student number X0230506098."
"Wei Liang, student number X0230506096."
"Hmm?" Lin Yi suddenly turned his head and looked at Wei Liang, "Didn't you say you were 097?"
Wei Liang rubbed his nose awkwardly: "When I first saw you, I had to test you a little, didn't I?"
Lin Yi clenched his fists and really wanted to punch him twice right now.
"No problem, you can go back to your seats first." The head teacher said after completing the registration.
Wei Liang took the lead and walked to his seat.
Lin Yi just glanced outside the door.
The door of this classroom is really strange. After it is opened, you can feel a faint warm air flow coming out from the outside, which disperses some of the fog at the door.
But when you look from the inside, you will find that fog is constantly creeping in from the crack in the door, along with wisps of cold wind.
He looked towards the darkness below the steps outside the door, and suddenly saw some vague figures in the mist that was like a mountain range...
He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, only to see rolling fog sweeping across the campus like smoke. The already dim street lights became even dimmer, like a beacon in the sea that was about to be submerged by a rainstorm.
The rain seemed to be getting heavier. Lin Yi could hear the rustling sound through the door. An indescribable sense of terror spread like a poisonous snake in the rolling fog in the distance, and the frost seemed to be corroding the ground of the teaching building.
A hint of worry appeared in the head teacher's eyes, and she looked at the pendulum clock in the teaching building.
21: 35.
"Five more minutes..." Lin Yi heard her mumbling.
But at this moment, the lights in the corridor suddenly flickered.
The cold seemed to be getting worse.
The head teacher's face changed instantly and she looked at the pendulum clock again.
21: 35.
Then she took the folder, went straight to the classroom door and looked out.
About half a minute later, another incandescent light flickered in the corridor.
"Not good!" the head teacher exclaimed in a low voice.
Then she looked around the classroom, raised her clear voice, and said, "Attention all students who are staying overnight in the classroom. Today is a special situation. After I close the door, no one is allowed to leave the classroom!"
"Once the lights in the classroom start flickering, you must immediately squat under the desk and hold on to the legs of the desk and chair!"
"The lights in the classroom will not go out immediately. Once they go out, don't close your eyes! Don't look around or look up! Keep your eyes on the patterns on the floor or on the legs of the desks. It's best to recite your names and student numbers in your mind!"
"At the same time, don't communicate with anyone! Ignore any sounds! Until the lights in the classroom return to normal!"
"the last point!"
"Be careful of anyone who enters the classroom after I close the door! Don't have any communication with them!"
The head teacher spoke very quickly but her words were extremely clear. After she finished speaking, she closed the door without hesitation.
"Bang!"
The classroom door slammed shut.
……
X023年5月6日，21:38。
The head teacher closed the door of Class 2, Group B, then inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it frantically.
“Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack…”
One circle, two circles, three circles...
The head teacher locked the door while reciting something in his mind. The lock tongue seemed endless and no matter how hard he turned it, he could not lock it to the end.
"All right!"
She pulled out the key, rushed to the left without hesitation, stretched out her hand, and grabbed a door handle.
She glanced up.
"Teacher's Office (small words on the side: Group B, Class 2)"
She breathed a sigh of relief, then turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.
At this moment, the lights in the corridor flickered suddenly.
"teacher……"
A hoarse voice suddenly called out from behind the head teacher.
The first round of trial promotion is about to begin. Dear readers, please add it to your bookshelf and read it~ Bang bang bang for you~
