Chapter 43 Gymnasium Rules

Chapter 43 Gymnasium Rules

"Take it yourself! One book per person, just swipe your student ID." Wei Liang took out his student ID and swiped it on the sensing area on the automatic lending and returning machine.

With a soft "beep" sound, the automatic lending and returning machine spit out a thin manual.

Wei Liang picked it up and waved it towards Lin Yi, then walked aside and began to flip through it.

Lin Yi lowered his head and glanced at the time on his watch.

14: 26.

"Class will start soon."

He quickly followed and came to the automatic lending and returning machine.

But for some unknown reason, he moved closer to the glass of the automatic lending and returning machine and observed the glass.

He was shocked: "This glass is also military-grade explosion-proof glass!"

"No way? Even this kind of glass is military grade?"

Lin Yi suddenly had a strange guess.

"Could it be that all the glass on campus is explosion-proof?"

But time waits for no one, so he put this guess in his mind, then took out his student ID and swiped it on the sensing area.

“Beep—”

A thin manual was spat out.

Lin Yi picked up the manual and walked to the side to read it.

The manual was only the size of a hand, like the pocket comic books he had passed around during breaks when he was in junior high school.

The material of the book cover felt similar to that of a student ID card, and he suspected that this thing might also have some reaction if placed in the sensing area.

On the not-so-big cover of the book, there is a gold-plated thorn vine pattern, and on the cover are five large characters "Gymnasium Rules", which makes it look like a treasure left by the king.

Turning the page, Lin Yi was slightly stunned.

The small gym rules even have a preface:

[Do not use student ID cards in the gymnasium area. All access gates can be opened with this rule.]

[A gymnasium map is attached at the end of this code. Please strictly restrain yourself and stay in the experience areas marked on the map. It is forbidden to enter non-experience areas. 】

"And a map?"

He ran his thumb along the edge of the manual, and sure enough, the thickness of the last few sheets of paper was obviously different, and like the building rules, they looked like a folded map.

He began by reading the gym rules.

"Gymnasium Rules"

“1. You only need to stay in the experience area marked on the map. The gymnasium is the most normal and safest place for you to stay during your time at school (no other place).”

“2. In the gymnasium, you can trust the PE teachers and students unconditionally.”

“But please remember that the PE teacher is the person wearing a blue and white sports uniform with a PE teacher badge on the chest;”

"Athletes are people who wear blue and white sportswear and don't have student ID cards."

"If you encounter a physical education teacher or physical education student who does not meet the above conditions, please strictly follow the following practices:

If they don’t come to you, move away from them in a normal manner;”

"If they come to you, please maintain normal communication with them and follow their arrangements, but never follow them out of the experience area."

"During this process, please remember as much as possible the information on the PE teacher's badge, the name of the PE student, and their appearance. Then, after parting with them, tell the PE teacher or PE student closest to you as soon as possible."

"3. The gymnasium has four floors in total, namely the basement, first floor, second floor, and third floor."

"The stadium is connected to the dome and can be reached via the [Safety Passage]."

"The Dome is a football stadium with bleachers, two tiers of bleachers."

"Normally, the experience area you can move around in is limited to the first floor of the dome, or the first and second floors of the stadium."

"5. The gymnasium and the dome have the most abundant power supply in the entire campus, and the lighting is maintained 24 hours a day. There is absolutely no flickering of lights."

"6. The first floor of the gymnasium consists of an office, two equipment rooms, a swimming pool and a basketball court."

"If the PE teacher is not present for class, please move freely in the experience area and do not take the initiative to go to the office to find them."

"If you want to borrow sports equipment, please talk to the sports students nearby. They will help you borrow it. Don't go to the equipment room to borrow it yourself."

"If you accidentally get close to an office or equipment room, no matter what you see or hear, don't pay attention to it. Just leave before you intrude."

"7. When you take swimming lessons, pay attention to the start time and do not stay in the water for more than an hour."

“8. The gymnastics hall is located on the second floor of the gymnasium and can be reached directly by stairs. There is no time limit for gymnastics classes.”

"9. When sports students invite you to join gymnastics or swimming lessons, please try to agree to them. They are doing this for your own good."

“10. When the PE teacher gives you instructions, please obey him unconditionally, even if he asks you to do something that conflicts with this rule.”

“Remember: In the school district, the tasks assigned by the physical education teacher are above all else (bold and underlined)!!”

"Note: When the PE teacher assigns you a task, he or she will start with "I order you as the PE teacher" and end with "finished". Please distinguish carefully."

“11. In theory, there are only students and teachers in the gymnasium.”

"If you see a chef wearing a green bib in the gym, please inform the PE student or PE teacher immediately. If you find that he is moving towards you at high speed, please rush to the nearest PE student or PE teacher and shout for help."

"If you see an angel sculpture placed on the ground in the gymnasium by someone unknown, please rush to the office immediately, hold your student ID card tightly, push the door open, close your eyes and tell the physical education teacher what happened."

“Never ask a gym student for help when you find an angel statue (super eye-catching bold font)!!”

"12. The gymnasium is a closed environment. There is absolutely no possibility of wind blowing in or rain falling in."

"If you feel a breeze with a fishy smell, please hold your student ID in your hand immediately and follow the [safe passage] to the second level of the dome. The interior of the stadium is no longer safe enough."

"If you are hit by raindrops and find that there is mist seeping out from under the floor, please hold your student ID in your hand and leave the gym immediately."

"at this time:
If it is not raining outside the stadium, even if it is foggy, please run as fast as you can along the road lined with lamp posts until you leave the area where the stadium is located. "

"If it rains outside the stadium, please go to the second level of the dome and wait for the arrangement of the physical education teacher." "13. If you see sculpture fragments or tomato elements in areas outside the stadium experience area:
Please confirm your location information as soon as you realize this. If you remember that you accidentally took the wrong road, please leave immediately and avoid encountering them during this period. "

"If you find that you cannot leave, close your eyes before the fragments of the sculpture begin to vibrate slightly, and mentally tell yourself that you have left the gym."

“When you feel the sea breeze blowing in your face, open your eyes and you will know what to do.”

“14. No entry into the gymnasium basement!!! (red font and underline).”

"I wish you a safe trip."

"I wish you a safe journey..." Lin Yi read to the end, his eyes fell on these six words, and he couldn't move his eyes away for a long time.

Putting aside other rules, everything that has happened in the past two days has given him a feeling that even "safe travel" is a luxury.

As for the other rules, Lin Yi only glanced at them. Before he could start to memorize them, Wei Liang's urging voice rang in his ears:

"Lao Lin, hurry up, just get the gym rules and let's go to class!"

"If the PE teacher didn't come out and let us study on our own, it would be fine. But if he came and we were still late... that would be terrible."

……

X023年5月7日,14:30。

Lin Yi and Wei Liang came to the basketball court on the first floor of the gymnasium. Since the physical education teacher did not show up, this was theoretically a "free activity class."

"Great...it's a free activity." Wei Liang visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Yi was puzzled and asked: "What's wrong, Liangzi, is the physical education teacher scary?"

"The physical education teacher..." Wei Liang thought for a moment, then shuddered suddenly, "The physical education teacher is so scary!"

He explained: "The last time I came here to experience it, I also had three physical education classes. My third physical education class was on the sixth day. Damn, by then I had been hungry for almost a day, my mind was a little fuzzy, and I was starting to feel a little confused. Guess what?"

"The PE teacher who had not been teaching for a long time suddenly came out to teach. Not only did she come, she also caught me and tortured me alone. In the one-hour PE class, she held me in the water for an hour!!!"

"I feel like I'm going to drink all the water in the swimming pool!"

"Then I got back to the dorm and had a high fever!"

"I listened to the advice in the Student Code and wanted to go find my homeroom teacher, but it was too foggy that day and it seemed to be raining, so I stayed in the dormitory..."

"I will leave as soon as I finish the last day."

"I almost died because of the PE teacher!"

Wei Liang was full of resentment towards the physical education teacher, but he was also in awe of him. It seemed that the water in the swimming pool was not delicious.

"Gymnastics class is still the best...tsk tsk tsk." Wei Liang sighed, "Okay, it's free time in PE class. Lao Lin, I'm going to find a gymnastics senior to learn some postures or some knowledge. You stay here... forget it, just wander around!"

"Oh, by the way, remember to move around in the experience area on the map! I suggest you find a place to sit down and familiarize yourself with the rules of the gym. I'll go first~"

"Senior, here I come~~~" Wei Liang said, and as if his feet were greased, he happily trotted towards the stairs and headed for the gymnastics room on the second floor.

"Forgetting one's loyalty for the sake of beauty." Looking at Wei Liang who disappeared on the stairs, Lin Yi sneered.

He stroked the gymnasium rules in his hand, turned to the last page, unfolded the map from it, and started to look at it.

The map of the stadium is a bit like the floor plan in a shopping mall. The main body is the floor plan of the first floor, and the expanded one is the floor plan of the second floor.

From the floor plan of the first floor, the locations of the physical education teacher's office, equipment room, swimming pool, basketball court, etc. are clearly visible. In the upper left corner of the gymnasium, there is also a [Safety Passage] marked, connecting the first floor of the gymnasium and the first floor of the dome's stands.

Among these areas, most of them are blue, while areas like the physical education teacher's office and the equipment room are green. There are also some areas that are prohibited from entering and are painted with pure heavy black ink.

The permitted activity areas on the map are almost the same as those described in the gymnasium rules, and basically serve as a way for students to quickly locate their own positions.

Lin Yi folded the map and first observed the environment inside the gymnasium.

The entire gymnasium adopts a cantilever structure. The first floor alone is more than five meters high. The ceiling is filled with a large number of high-intensity LED lights. The bright white light is dazzling, making it impossible for Lin Yi to observe for too long.

But he still discovered something.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the ceiling again.

LED lights make up the majority of the ceiling, but not all of them are LED lights. In the gaps between the LED lights, there are also many incandescent lamps.

Incandescent lamps may also be on, but the light is completely covered by LEDs.

In addition, the interior of the gymnasium is all floor, so even if there is some yellow light from incandescent lamps mixed in the white light, it does not look obvious.

"There are LED lights, but they still have to install some incandescent lamps..." Lin Yi looked around, and suddenly, he was shocked!
"That's... a kerosene lamp?!"

In such a modern and trendy gymnasium, there is actually an old kerosene lamp!

Moreover, this is not just an old kerosene lamp for decoration, but a real old kerosene lamp that is in use and blooming!
"This lamp?!"

He suddenly thought of something, rubbed his eyes quickly, and looked again.

At one glance, it was as if he had clairvoyance and he could immediately identify the texture and quality of the old kerosene lamp.

At that moment, he was absolutely sure that this was exactly the same old kerosene lamp that the security guard was holding!

He was shocked and couldn't help but change from a half-squatting position to a standing position, then quickened his pace and walked towards the kerosene lamp.

But he didn't walk far, and stopped near the old kerosene lamp.
He keenly sensed something and quickly took out the map to compare his position with that of the old kerosene lamp.

Then he found that he was indeed in the experience area, but the old kerosene lamp was hanging in the prohibited area!
The location where the old kerosene lamp is hung is a darker area in the gymnasium. It is hung on the wall, and the clear yellow light curtain stretches out an area, giving people a warm and secure feeling.

Lin Yi looked at the old kerosene lamp and suddenly realized that it was not the only one.

At about the same distance from it, there is another identical old kerosene lamp.

Then after a distance, there was another old kerosene lamp hanging on the wall.

One old kerosene lamp after another, using the light curtain to open a path, seemed out of place in the new gymnasium.

Lin Yi looked in the direction of the old kerosene lamp and saw that the corridor led to nowhere. There was a light hanging at the end, but it was still pitch black.

Faintly, he saw a door in the dark place, and behind the door seemed to be a staircase.

A staircase leads to the basement.

It's late but it's here. Sorry for the long wait! There are some typos that I don't have time to correct. I will find time to correct them tomorrow. Thank you for pointing them out~
