Chapter 15: "Searching for the Enemy in the Void"

Chapter 15: "Searching for the Enemy in the Void"

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't respond, Wei Liang took the initiative to get out of the desk and waved his hand in front of him.

"What's wrong? Are you numb from squatting in the toilet? Come out, it's okay!" He stretched out his hand to Lin Yi and pulled Lin Yi out from under the desk.

"Lao Lin, you're not really scared silly, are you?"

He stretched out his hands and rubbed Lin Yi's face.

Lin Yi's head was shaking like a rattle. Just as he was about to shake off Wei Liang's hand, his pupils suddenly contracted violently.

His face suddenly turned pale.

He saw a classmate, huddled almost in a mosaic position in his seat in the circular lecture hall, looking directly at him.

The classmate's eyes were wide open, but his look was empty and lifeless, and the corners of his mouth were raised in a huge arc, almost to his ears like a clown.

Crazy, insane, dull... these contradictory expressions were stuffed onto his face in a very conflicting way, making him look weird and scary.

Lin Yi wasn't sure if the classmate was looking at him, but he looked like an evil ghost lying on the windowsill, staring at the delicious flesh and blood in the window.

What really made Lin Yi's scalp tingle was that he saw a portable flashlight in the classmate's hand.

This alone was enough for Lin Yi to be certain that this classmate was the guy who had killed the little genius after the lights were turned off in the classroom!

It was this classmate who scored three goals in the dark, and kept pulling with him, trying to catch him!

“What the hell…”

Lin Yi shuddered all over.

Wei Liang saw this abnormal scene, turned around with a puzzled look, and looked in the direction Lin Yi was looking.

"Lao Lin, what are you looking at...oh my god!"

The moment he saw that classmate, Wei Liang's legs went weak and he was almost sent away on the spot. Fortunately, he grabbed Lin Yi's shoulder in time and did not fall.

Wei Liang didn't dare to speak anymore. He shrank his neck and slowly moved to the side. He leaned against the desk and gasped for breath, his face full of fear.

Lin Yi carefully bent down a little towards his left side.

The dull and sluggish classmate also tilted his neck a little bit to follow his direction...

Lin Yi was terrified. He straightened up and then leaned a little to the other side.

Sure enough, the classmate followed his movements and slowly tilted his neck, without blinking, and even the curvature of his mouth did not change at all.

"Fuck, are you really looking at me?!" Lin Yi felt a chill down his spine. The warm light from the classroom shone on him, but he felt nothing but coldness.

He ran for the bookshelf nearby and hid under the cover of the bookshelf.

That strange feeling of discomfort disappeared at this moment.

Lin Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But the good times didn't last long, and before long he began to feel like he was being watched again.

He carefully followed the feeling and poked his head out from behind the bookshelf. Sure enough, he found that the classmate was staring at him with a pair of empty eyes and a huge arc at the corners of his mouth.

Lin Yi felt a chill. This empty but cold gaze made him feel uncomfortable all over, as if he was being stared at by Medusa.

He took a deep breath and tried changing several covers, but the classmate's eyes would always follow him after a short delay.

It's like a thorn in the flesh.

The more this happened, the more severe the chill Lin Yi felt in his heart.

Gradually, he felt the hairs on his arms stand up, and it seemed as if countless needles in the air around him were gently pricking his pores...

He scratched his arm, and the goose bumps went away a little, but the discomfort didn't decrease much.

Wei Liang also discovered the problem, so he bent over, stood on tiptoe, and ran to Lin Yi's side in a very inconspicuous way, and whispered:
"Lao Lin, did you encounter something dirty?"

Lin Yi was speechless for a while, but the feeling of being on edge was so strong, so he said: "Although I really want to tell you to believe in science, I feel really uncomfortable now."

"What the hell am I going to do?" Wei Liang asked worriedly.

"I do not know either."

"Ah? You don't know either? Then how did that guy target you?" Wei Liang pursed his lips and glanced at the classmate sideways.

Wei Liang's arrival distracted Lin Yi's attention, making his feelings fade a little.

He spread his hands and told Wei Liang the whole process of the little genius being killed and the struggle with that classmate that he had heard.

"That's how it is. I'm lucky to be alive now."

"It's really his own fault. You've been badly screwed by that little genius!" Wei Liang was horrified when he heard this, and he also felt a little scared after putting himself in his shoes.

He widened his eyes, looking at Lin Yi in shock, and couldn't help but say: "But then again, it has to be you, Old Lin. If it was me, I would have been taken away!"

"Well, back to the topic, why did that classmate target you? From what you said, I feel like he's blind. Could it be that he's relying on... 'Void Detection'?"

"God damn it, he's searching for the enemy in the void!" Lin Yi complained in his heart, speechless: "If it's really that mysterious, aren't you afraid that he will search for me too if you stay by my side?"

Wei Liang shrugged and said frankly, "Although I am afraid that you will be implicated, I feel that it is safer for the two of us to stay together. Besides, wasn't I hiding under the desk next to you just now? I am fine, right?"

Lin Yi was stunned and immediately became confused: "Yeah, how come you are fine? We were so close, didn't you hear the little genius die?"

"I heard it!"

"Did you hear the little genius's body fall?"

"I heard it too..."

"Fuck... you heard everything, but you didn't feel anything?" Lin Yi took a step back and looked Wei Liang up and down, "You... are so careless?"

Lin Yi originally wanted to get some inspiration from Wei Liang's approach, but it turned out that Wei Liang did nothing!

"etc……?!"

"You didn't do anything?"

"Liangzi, you hid under the table after the power went out, and then what? Didn't you do anything?"

"Yeah! Just staring at the legs of the table, and then thinking about something you know... hehehe, that kind of thing!"

"..."

"But maybe I have a very unique skill for staring at table legs. I don't know if that has anything to do with it."

"Oh?" Lin Yi looked at him curiously, "What technique?"

"Hey, look!"

Wei Liang raised a finger in front of him, then slowly moved it close to his nose. His eyes widened and suddenly became cross-eyed. "If that's the case, I won't be able to see anything except the table leg! Even if the king of heaven comes, I will only see the table leg!"

Lin Yi: “…”

"How is it? Is it of reference value?" Wei Liang said with a smile.

He closed his eyes and shook his head: "The only drawback is that my eyes tend to get sore after a while, but it will be fine after I get used to it."

Lin Yi sighed deeply, his heart was in turmoil, and finally he sighed helplessly: "I never thought that you would have such a unique skill."

Wei Liang waved his hand: "It's just a trifle. I didn't expect that I could put my knowledge into practice... How about you try it?"

Lin Yi shook his head: "Forget it."

Wei Liang said seriously: "Hey! Don't do it, maybe it will be useful."

Lin Yi couldn't stand Wei Liang's insistence and could only make a cross-eyed expression.

Wei Liang burst out laughing and couldn't help but say, "Lao Lin, when you make that expression, it feels like your IQ has dropped by 250!"

Lin Yi sneered and was about to retort, but suddenly he was stunned.

"Huh?!" Lin Yi shook his head, his eyes returned to normal, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Ah? What?" Wei Liang was stunned.

"This--?!" Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and thought, then showed a serious expression.

"Did you discover something?" Wei Liang asked excitedly, "Is it this genius... Bah, bah, bah, is it this young master who gave you inspiration?"

Lin Yi nodded and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, it's true."

Just when he was squinting, Lin Yi found that everything in his field of vision was distorted except for one point. If it was in the dark, even if that classmate really came close to him, all he would see would probably be a mess.

Once you can't make assumptions, and think of unrelated things in your mind, it's really hard for people to associate weird things with the sound alone.

Wei Liang used this method to cut off his connection with this strange environment the moment he grabbed the table leg!

"It's a real show, but it's also a real show."

"I think it's like this..." Lin Yi was about to tell Wei Liang his analysis, but Wei Liang waved his hands repeatedly, "Wait, wait, wait! I don't want to hear it!"

"what?"

"Ah what? I don't want to know anything, hehe. I just need to know the most basic rules. As for the rest... the less I know, the better."

Wei Liang smiled, and his eyes hidden under his baseball cap and messy hair revealed a deep and wise feeling.

Lin Yi felt more and more that Wei Liang did not survive last time by luck.

For example, at this time, Wei Liang seemed to be thinking about something very profound...

Sure enough, Wei Liang raised his hand and pointed behind Lin Yi: "Old Lin, the covers of those books over there look good... Now that you have figured it out, why not go read some comics and spend this long night in the magical harem comics?"

Lin Yi opened his mouth. Could it be that Wei Liang's deep gaze just now was about picking comics...?
“6…”

"Hey, stop daydreaming! Let's go pick some comics!" Wei Liang tugged at Lin Yi's clothes and urged him, "Do you remember what Xu Shunkang and the others said? The more you think, the more dangerous it is. Let's go and read some comics. If the lights go off, do as I say!"

"Okay..." Lin Yi couldn't resist Wei Liang's pulling, and was pulled to the bookshelf with a wry smile.

A moment later, Lin Yi and Wei Liang each left the bookshelf area with some comic books.

When passing by the desk area, Lin Yi discovered that the legs of each desk were nailed into the floor tiles. This design turned the desks into simple shelters to a certain extent.

"So that guy really wanted to flip the desk, but gave up because it was welded shut? It wasn't me who was holding onto the desk?"

He also noticed that one of the tables had obvious signs of bumps, and if you look closely, you can see a trace of blood on the table.

That was the desk that the little genius's body had smashed onto, and underneath that desk...

Lin Yi's pupils shrank.

"really!"

There were visible white scratches on the table legs near the table top, as if someone had scratched them with plaster.

That desk was the one where Lin Yi had just hidden, and the desk where Wei Liang had hidden...there was really nothing wrong with it.

Lin Yi couldn't help but admire Wei Liang.

As he passed the desk area, he noticed that every desk had the same note on it. It read:
[Except for art students, other students are not allowed to sit at the desk and read. ]

Lin Yi was slightly stunned, but immediately realized something strange - there was a large area of ​​desks at the back of this huge circular classroom, but no one sat down.

Everyone sat on the foldable chairs in the circular classroom and used the unfolded desks to place their books for reading.

"Is that why no one is sitting here?"

Lin Yi had no time to think about it. He returned to his original seat with Wei Liang, holding the comic book.

After putting down the comic book, Lin Yi looked down at his watch.

23: 45.

"Only 23:45?"

Even though it was only 22:43 the last time I looked at my watch, this period of time really feels like a century.

But only an hour has passed?
He leaned back slightly, putting all his weight on the back of the chair, then looked at the ceiling and let out a long sigh.

"What a long night..."

There was a look of worry in his eyes, and suddenly he heard the sound of turning pages of a book.

Wei Liang next to him was already holding a comic book volume and reading it, looking radiant and energetic.

"Well... it seems not to someone."

He took a deep breath and touched his arm.

"Why? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Wei Liang asked while turning the page.

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and said helplessly: "Anyone would feel uncomfortable being stared at, let alone this kind of gaze."

Wei Liang glanced back at the classmate, then shrugged and said half-jokingly: "What should we do? Now is not the time to think of countermeasures... Hey, what's with that expression on your face?"

Lin Yi squinted his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking about, but Wei Liang felt that Lin Yi was not thinking about a problem, but had thought of something.

"Do you... have any ideas?"

Lin Yi looked back at his classmates, then turned to Wei Liang. He stretched his body, then stared into Wei Liang's eyes and spoke word by word: "Tell me...is there any way to get rid of his attention to me?"
