Chapter 60 The team heading to the teaching building D

Chapter 60 The team heading to the teaching building D
The architectural style of this teaching building is completely different from the previous three. If it were not connected by a covered bridge, it would be really difficult to associate it with the teaching building.

The reason why he thought so was because the relevant rules popped into his mind first.

The first rule of the teaching building rules: [There are three teaching buildings in total, namely Building A, Building B, and Building C. Each building has four floors, and each floor has three classes, from low to high, namely Class A1, Class A2...Class A12.

There are cross bridges connecting the buildings on each floor, so you can reach them on foot. 】

And the second rule, which is in complete conflict with the first rule of the school building:
[It is forbidden to go to Building D of the teaching building. ]

There are only three buildings, so why do we need to specifically state not to go to Building D?
Obviously, Building D exists, but normally it doesn't.

These conflicting things were what he subconsciously thought about last night.

It was also something he finally restrained himself from thinking about, and decided to put off thinking about it until he returned to the dormitory tonight.

However, he is no longer the "newbie student" who had only been in school for a few hours yesterday. He now has rich experience of "getting his shoes wet by the river and crawling back to the shore".

Not to mention that he almost couldn’t find a toilet when he left the classroom to go to the bathroom;

The first time he went to the cafeteria to eat, he was chased by a cuckold;

Not to mention that he almost walked to the beach along the way to the gym...

Not to mention that I almost mistook myself for a takeaway when I went to the student cafeteria to have dinner just now...

In the boss's words, it was an accident that he was still alive.

But in Tian Bufan's words, he has gradually begun to "adapt".

It was indeed a bit surprising that he was able to pull himself back from those desperate situations, but as Tian Bufan said, once he adapted, these accidents would become inevitable.

Therefore, when he saw Teaching Building D at this time, his first reaction was still fear and shock of the unknown.

But he was able to use his reason to suppress these terrible thoughts in advance and maintain a sufficiently stable will before he fell into some irresistible hallucinations or sank into some strange illusions.

He withdrew his attention from the Hanged Man-style Phantom of the Clock Tower and, along the corridor bridge, began to move towards Building C, little by little.

The teaching rules clearly state that [going to Building D of the Teaching Building is prohibited]. The implication is that based on the first rule, it reconfirms and tries to tell students that Building D of the Teaching Building does exist at some point.

"So Building D is probably related to abnormal weather... It seems that when rain and fog come and Building D is the only building nearby, those people will be forced to violate the rules of the next day and go to Building D."

He remembered that the teaching building D was hidden in the thick fog, while the cobblestone road where he was now was just a thin mist...

"In other words, unless the rain covers the entire campus, the so-called 'abnormal weather' is relatively regional?"

"For example, the current environment around teaching building D is abnormal weather, while the situation here is relatively normal...?"

Lin Yi also noticed that there seemed to be a clock tower over in Building D of the teaching building?
"A clock tower?"

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes.

The clock tower of S City University was something indescribable, outrageous, abstract, distorted and terrifying in his memory.

Even now, he has been avoiding thinking about anything related to it.

Because the existence of the clock tower is too weird.

As early as when he was awakened by the blue bus, he had already seen the outline of a clock tower on the S City University campus through the bus window.

However, since he stepped into S City University, he has seen the teaching buildings, cafeterias, gymnasiums, and even walked a long way on the campus, but he has not even seen the shadow of the clock tower.

This is so weird.

It's so weird and unreasonable.

It's so weird that it's unbelievable.

But if he put reality aside, he had actually seen the clock tower once - just this afternoon.

When he returned to the teaching building from the cafeteria, he seemed to see a dark, bizarre, Gothic-style world through the moss on the stairs of the teaching building.

The moon hung in the night sky, with thick mist floating around. Under the pale moonlight, the dark-style castle revealed its hideous corner in the thunder.

He remembered that the castle had a clock tower, that a raven had stopped by the clock tower, and that when he turned around he saw a sentence:

【Welcome to the Art Building. 】

"Teaching Building D... Could it be the art building that's said to not exist on the map?"

He thought of the strange female teachers and classmates yesterday evening, the girl in the sailor suit with a hairpin he met at lunch, and those people who were not sports students but took other passages.

If they came from the Art Building, and took advantage of the unusual fog in the mountains at dusk to enter the normal world from a place that didn't exist... then everything seemed to make sense?
Although there were still many doubts, he was no longer willing to think about it, so he retracted his gaze.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that on the corridor bridge leading from Teaching Building C to Teaching Building D, there seemed to be... a team.

The team was too far away from him, and was marching in the thick fog and dim light. Lin Yi could not find them at first, until the figure at the head of the team raised a lantern.

The faint light from the lantern seemed like a sharp blade that cut through an area in the fog and led the team from Building C to Building D.

"Is it the security guard and the chef?"

This thought emerged in Lin Yi's mind, but he didn't look at it any further and quickly retracted his gaze.

At the same time, Wei Liang's waving hand flashed before his eyes.

"What are you daydreaming about, Old Lin?" Wei Liang asked.

Lin Yi recovered and said, "Oh, nothing... just taking a look."

"It's pitch black, there's nothing to see. Let's go sit in the classroom for a while, and then we can go back to the dormitory." Wei Liang waved to Lin Yi and glanced in the direction Lin Yi was looking at.

The evening breeze blew away the fog, and a covered bridge was faintly visible in the direction of Teaching Building C towards the mountainous area, but the bridge only extended halfway before breaking, and there was nothing further ahead.

But in that void, one could vaguely see a light that was flickering like a ghost fire and was getting dimmer and dimmer.

Wei Liang retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "Hey, let's go!"

"Okay!" Lin Yi nodded and walked towards Building B. ...

X023年5月7日,18:40,林异和魏亮回到了B组2班的阶梯之前。

Lin Yi raised his head and glanced at Teaching Building B.

At this moment, the teaching building was surrounded by visible fog. Under the moonlight and lights, the air currents seemed to become materialized, clinging to the walls of the teaching building with their claws and fangs, and spreading on the floor tiles and ceramic tiles like ivy and tentacles, as if they had wrapped up the teaching building.

From his perspective, he looked up at the teaching building. The four-story building was brightly lit, but the lights became less visible the higher it went. In the fog above the fourth floor, there seemed to be a vague shadow of a castle in the sky.

But when he blinked, he could no longer see those illusory shadows.

It's just like ordinary distraction.

He didn't pay much attention and came to the front of the classroom with Wei Liang.

He reached out to hold the door handle of the classroom, but his eyes subconsciously looked at the keyhole...

I don’t know if it had all flowed out, but at this time, no more ketchup was flowing out of the keyhole.

He looked up at the classroom doorplate, reconfirmed that it was Group B, Class 2, then reached out, pressed the doorknob, and pushed open the classroom door.

“Ka! Chi—”

The door of the classroom slowly opened, and Lin Yi felt a heavy force coming from the door, as if he was pushing open a heavy stone door.

"call--"

The evening breeze blew into the classroom through the crack in the door with a thin mist, and the noisy noise inside paused slightly.

Many eyes came from the lecture hall and fell on Lin Yi. When they found that it was only a student who opened the door, they continued to laugh and play.

Lin Yi walked in and shattered the mist with one foot.

He looked around and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in this classroom.

He remembered that there were about eighty people in the classroom last night, about fifteen of whom were athletes, then about twenty or so were normal students like him, and the rest were all abnormal students.

After the incandescent light flickered and went out, the number of normal students in the classroom dropped to thirteen.

But now, the number of students in the classroom has not only recovered, but has even increased, with the total number reaching about ninety.

Lin Yi glanced at the entire tiered classroom and found that those students who looked strange were sitting on the chairs like a group of inconspicuous sandbags under the incandescent light. Their bodies were deeply embedded in the chairs, and it was easy to overlook them if you were not careful.

Lin Yi counted and found that there were thirty-eight abnormal students in total. Among them, sixteen had normal eyes but crazy looks on their mouths, and the remaining twenty-two all had empty eyes and dull expressions.

The presence of these strange students was very low. If Lin Yi hadn’t gone out of his way to look for their locations, it would have been really hard to tell them apart.

A dozen or so sports students were reading comic books with their heads down, occasionally looking up at the pendulum clock on the wall.

Xu Shunkang and Xie Huayang were apparently among them.

In the end, there were only thirty-eight normal students left, and thirteen of them had become much duller after experiencing this period of torture. They looked dazed and flipped through comic books mechanically, as if they had not slept for a day or two.

In addition to them, there were twenty-five classmates who were chatting enthusiastically.

He hadn't seen these twenty-five people yesterday, so they must have just arrived today.

Wei Liang followed him into the classroom, and after a quick glance around, he said, "It looks like a bunch of lucky people have come today."

Lin Yi was slightly stunned, then he understood what Wei Liang meant. The weather was good today, so these people arrived at the classroom very smoothly, and the situation they had yesterday did not occur.

He looked at the smiles on these people's faces. Some of them sat lazily on the chairs, while others leaned against the side, talking and laughing with each other.

It seemed that they had taken an easy start to reach the teaching building, so they were completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem.

There were a few of these people fiddling with their phones, but it seemed that the problem on campus was not just a signal problem. The phones got stuck after being turned on and could not be used normally. Even the most basic functions seemed to be missing.

Not only mobile phones, but even some electronic devices used for recording seemed to have no effect - because there were a few people fiddling with some photographic equipment not far away, they seemed to be senior Vs and well-known UP hosts on a certain website. They brought a small group of people with them, perhaps wanting to shoot a documentary or something, and they were fiddling with their equipment without giving up.

There was also a girl who was surrounded by a lot of people. She was dragging a lot of bags, wearing a pink Lolita uniform, and was dressed cutely. She was obviously in her twenties, but she looked like she was in her teens.

These people really come here to have fun.

But when Lin Yi pushed open the door, most of them looked at him, but immediately went about their own business.

The seats where Lin Yi and Wei Liang originally sat had been occupied by other people, but there was no fixed seating in the tiered classroom, so he didn't care. He and Wei Liang took their respective schoolbags and found a place where there were not many people and sat down again.

The place where they were sitting now was very far away from the corridor window of the classroom, and was in the middle and back area of ​​the entire tiered classroom.

If the entire classroom was a battlefield, then the position they chose was almost like the kind where they could rush down the steps of the classroom and go straight to the podium, or retreat and immediately crawl under the desk to defend a corner. It was truly a place that must be fought for.

The most important thing is that it is far away from the door of the classroom, but can be reached in a straight line. And it is also far away from the windows of the classroom corridor, which can effectively avoid being affected by things that should not be seen.

When he saw them enter the classroom, Xu Shunkang looked up and gestured to them, then immediately flipped through the comic book at hand.

When Lin Yi passed by him, he found that the comic book in Xie Huayang's hand was indeed the work of Mr. Oda. It seemed that Xu Shunkang's collection was indeed quite rich.

As soon as he sat down, he put his schoolbag at his feet and took out the notebook from his pocket.

After a day, he needs to record and update some notes.

Before he recalled and organized his thoughts regarding the day's events, he glanced at the time on the dial and the pendulum clock above the podium.

18: 45.

There is no problem with time.

He then sorted out his thoughts and then flipped through the notebook from beginning to end.

[————Woo woo woo, my conscience has kicked in again. I won’t use the 800-word notes in my little notebook anymore. I will only quote a few complete quotes that are needed. For the full version, please see the chapter reviews or the book friends group———]
