Chapter 62 It's not easy to catch a fish
“Huh—” Lin Yi let out a long sigh like a black boxer with a crooked smile, sneering in his heart, “You want to plot against me with such a petty trick?!”
But just as he was closing the door, he faintly heard a few words from the new students inside...
"Look at that idiot, going in and out like a thief..."
Lin Yi: “…”
“Forget it, forget it. The layers are different. I won’t bother with them…”
He slammed the door shut, stared at the doorplate of the teacher's office, walked over and knocked on the door.
“Tuk…”
"squeak--"
Lin Yi's knuckles just knocked on the door for the first time, and a mechanical vibration was transmitted from the inside along the door handle, and then the door was opened from the inside...
A hint of cold air spread out from the crack in the door...
“Crack…”
Just like liquid nitrogen gas escaping from the door, a white frost quietly spread out from the door.
Lin Yi's pupils shrank slightly and he subconsciously retracted his foot.
The door slowly opened, and the cold air continued to spread. The cold current seemed to blow from the Siberian ice fields, causing Lin Yi to subconsciously cover the upper half of his face with his hands.
But the cold current did not last long and dissipated. Through the gaps between his fingertips, he saw his head teacher, dressed in professional attire, standing calmly at the door of the office.
The head teacher looked at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi also observed her quickly and vigilantly.
His eyes first fell on the head teacher, and like a radar search, he found the head teacher's name badge in the first time.
"Homeroom Teacher-B2-039".
"Huh..." Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the name badge made of normal acrylic material.
The badge representing my identity as “class teacher” is still there, so the situation is not too bad.
The head teacher in front of him didn't seem to have many problems, but because of what happened this morning, he still had some resistance towards the head teacher in his heart.
Besides, the boss also said when he sent him out of the gym:
"There is no doubt that there is something wrong with your homeroom teacher. If you meet her in abnormal weather, don't believe anything she says... It's best not to get too close to her."
So, he would have chosen to protect himself, but after weighing the pros and cons, he decided that in the face of conflicting statements, he would make compliance with the Code the first priority based on his own judgment.
Because based on the canteen rules, he'd better tell the class teacher the canteen staff numbers as soon as possible - things that are clearly written in such rules should be followed.
Although the canteen rules do not require him to do this, don't forget that the last rule of the canteen rules is:
[If you cannot leave the cafeteria after violating the above rules, please go to the canteen and wait until the canteen owner appears, tell him the problem you encountered, and follow all his arrangements. ]
He has indeed left the cafeteria now, but who knows if he will be unable to leave the cafeteria next time because of this incident.
If we can't do without it, wouldn't it be unnecessary trouble to look for a mysterious unit that the "Student Rules" mentions as "non-existent" but the "Cafeteria Rules" say we need to ask for help - the canteen owner?
Lin Yi subconsciously believes that he should stay away from this kind of character who is full of contradictions just from the perspective of rules.
Compared to mysterious units like "convenience store owner", the class teacher is relatively much more normal.
Because both the student rules and the teaching building rules mention one point: when encountering problems, you can seek help from the class teacher and need to "obey all arrangements given by the class teacher."
From this point of view, the identity of a class teacher is usually trustworthy.
However, it is obvious that there are some problems with the current class teacher.
So Lin Yi took a special look at the current weather conditions before knocking on the door.
At this point in time, the weather around the teaching building is still within the "normal" range, and does not yet meet the "abnormal weather" mentioned by the eldest brother.
So, he knocked on the office door anyway and decided to make a quick decision.
But the head teacher left the office door wide open and motioned for him to come in.
"Come in first and then talk."
Lin Yi looked down at the layer of frost on the floor tiles under his feet, and his eyes twitched slightly. He rejected the invitation of the head teacher and said in a low voice: "Teacher, I am here to report the number of the cafeteria staff according to the requirements of the cafeteria rules."
"Yes." The head teacher nodded gently and repeated, "Whatever it is, come in first and talk about it."
"No... Teacher, I'm just here to report the numbers..." Lin Yi said cautiously, "Just listen to me, okay?"
"Don't say such things at a time like this." The head teacher glanced coldly at Lin Yi's back, "The 'office' is the only place in the teaching building where you can 'talk without restraint'."
Lin Yi was slightly startled, and suddenly he felt waves of cold air rising from his back, as if something was watching his back through the not-too-thick fog outside the teaching building!
He looked into the eyes of his class teacher and saw a flowing mist in her eyes. The mist seemed to depict the shadow of some strange creature...
"Let's talk about it in the office..." The head teacher stretched out his hand to him hastily, "Quick!"
"call……"
Lin Yi sensed the flow of the fog, and a "rustling..." sound came from behind him, as if something was coming towards him!
"Fuck, this can also cause complications?!"
Lin Yi gritted his teeth and walked towards the head teacher.
"Stop wasting time!" The head teacher stretched out a hand that was too white, grabbed Lin Yi's wrist, and pulled him into the office!
The moment the head teacher grabbed his wrist, Lin Yi was suddenly shocked!
The cold feeling passed through the palm of the head teacher's hand, stinging his hand.
He felt the blood in his wrist was slightly coagulating.
Lin Yi: "This...?! There's really something wrong with the homeroom teacher!"
At the same time, his body crossed the boundaries of the office door frame and entered the office!
This was his second time entering the office, and this time, the moment his body crossed the door frame, a faint feeling of discomfort quietly spread from the depths of the office.
After he experienced the feeling of entering space B from space A many times, he once again clearly felt the sense of change in "spatial position"!
"The office is also an independent space?!" Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat. This discovery instantly solved some of his doubts!
No wonder when Tian Bufan and the others knocked on the door, the voice coming from behind the door was a male's, but when he knocked on the door, the voice coming from the office was a female's!
(Note: Before Lin Yi or anyone else entered the office for the first time, they would subconsciously think that this was a multi-person office and that different teachers would open the door several times. But this idea was broken the moment they entered, because the office was occupied by only one person.)
No wonder there was no one in the office when he entered!
Because the relationship between this office and its door is not a relationship of one key to one lock!
Who knows what is behind the door before it is opened?!
Before he had time to think, the office door slammed shut with a bang.
The entire office has become a closed environment. The incandescent lamp on the ceiling is always on, but it is extremely dim deep inside. It is obviously not a large space, but there is an area where even light cannot reach.
The atmosphere in the office was as depressing as a long-sealed cellar.
At this time, the head teacher's voice slowly sounded: "I have no ill intentions."
Lin Yi said in a deep voice: "Whether there is any malicious intent or not, teacher...shouldn't you let go of my hand first?"
The head teacher was slightly startled, and somewhat stiffly loosened his grip on Lin Yi's wrist. Lin Yi turned his wrist and took a breath.
"It's so cold and painful..."
He secretly glanced at the time on the watch on his wrist, then looked at the time on the pendulum clock on the office wall.
19: 03.
So far... it's a little bit abnormal.
At this moment, there was a loud bang outside the door.
Then, there was a loud banging on the door.
“Teacher! Teacher…Teacher…”
“Bang, bang, bang…”
“Bang, bang, bang…”
“Bang, bang, bang…”
The person outside the door was calling out and banging on the door violently, as if a violent storm was hitting the glass.
Feeling the impact coming from the door, Lin Yi looked shocked.
Then he discovered that on this door... there was a cat's eye that could be used to observe the outside situation!
He was startled, and suddenly realized why the head teacher opened the door just after he knocked - because the head teacher had been observing the situation outside through the peephole? !
How long had she been looking?
How much willpower does it take to lie on the door and watch for so long? !
This weird behavior instantly made Lin Yi feel uneasy in his heart. It was abnormal, too abnormal!
It’s like... the head teacher is deliberately waiting for something to happen!
And he is this rabbit!
He stared at the teacher's arm, which was too white, and narrowed his eyes. Then, he pointed at the door and asked tentatively: "That thing outside the door...is not attacking me. It wants to rush into the office, right?"
The head teacher looked at Lin Yi, his eyes gradually narrowed: "That's right."
Lin Yi sighed in his heart: "So, you lured me into the office... and took advantage of the fact that I wanted to report the number of the cafeteria chef to you."
The head teacher said noncommittally: "Yes... and no."
"First of all, I'm not sure you're here to report the chef's number."
“Secondly, even if it’s not, it won’t have any impact.”
Finally, he added: "It's not easy to catch a fish."
Lin Yi: “…”
"No matter what..." Lin Yi spread his hands, "I'll leave after I finish my report."
The head teacher smiled but said nothing. She turned and walked towards her desk, leaving Lin Yi with a beautiful back view.
Lin Yi noticed that the head teacher's steps seemed even stiffer than in the morning.
Taking this opportunity, he took a quick look at the entire office environment.
Compared to the last time I came, the office environment was obviously much messier, with crumpled papers scattered all over the floor, and not just in places where I couldn't even raise my eyes.
"Teacher, didn't you change your stockings?" Lin Yi suddenly asked.
The head teacher was slightly startled, and looked down at his thighs. Then, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Yi with interest: "You observe very carefully... But, you don't just pay attention to these things, do you?"
Lin Yi did not answer.
The head teacher walked to the desk, opened a folder, and said as he flipped through the documents, "It got torn after I wore it, and I'm too lazy to change it... Tell me your name and student number first."
"Lin Yi, X023050609..." He noticed that the head teacher seemed to have found his page, so he reported the last digit correctly, "...8."
The head teacher closed the folder and put it aside, then opened the drawer, pulled out a stack of A4 paper from the messy pile of documents and placed it on the desk.
"You just said that you need to report a chef's number?"
"Correct."
"Write it down."
Lin Yi was slightly startled, then nodded and said, "Okay."
He walked forward and picked up the pen given by his head teacher.
It was a chrome-plated fountain pen with a circle of alloy wrapped around the dark blue pen body, which felt slightly cool to the touch.
He opened the pen cap and wrote the chef's badge number on his finger:
"Chef-0391."
He thought for a moment and wrote:
"Chef-0154."
The head teacher asked in confusion: "Why are there two numbers?"
Lin Yi explained: "I didn't get it right the first time, and I didn't get it right the second time, so I wrote it down both times."
"Well... you did the right thing." The head teacher put the paper away, then pointed at the remaining paper and said, "Write another one."
"Ah?" Lin Yi was stunned, but still did as he was told.
As he was writing, the head teacher suddenly asked, "Lin Yi, what color are your words?"
Lin Yi was startled and looked down.
The blue ink writing on the paper appeared morbidly distorted under the illumination of the incandescent lamp, and a hint of green light emerged in the distortion.
Lin Yi was shocked, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He stared intently, and the distortion disappeared. On his fingers were the serious blue ink writing: "Chef-0391, Chef-0154."
"It's blue, teacher, can't you see it clearly?"
He looked at the head teacher with an innocent yet puzzled expression.
"Of course it's blue." The head teacher said firmly, but there was an extremely faint golden light quietly disappearing in the depths of his eyes.
"Teacher, now that the report is over, I'll be leaving first." Lin Yi said as he turned to leave.
However, just as he turned half of his body and was about to turn his back to the head teacher, an aura so cold that it was difficult to describe in words suddenly surged from the direction of the head teacher like a tidal wave.
“Huh…Huh—”
A layer of white mist suddenly appeared in the office, just like the moment the office door was pushed open, a cold current rushed out from the crack of the door...
