Chapter 105 Leaving the Dormitory
Chapter 105 Leaving the Dormitory
"Let's leave the dormitory first and talk while walking on the way." Tian Bufan said after looking at the time.
宿舍楼电梯开放的时间是6:00~7:40，而现在的已经6:45，保险点自然该离开宿舍了。
However, just as Lin Yi was about to open the dormitory door, his hand suddenly shrank as if he had been electrocuted the moment it grasped the door handle.
Before Lin Yi could speak, a deep voice suddenly sounded behind him:
"besides?!"
"Lao Lin, get behind me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Shan's huge figure came to Lin Yi's side with a gust of wind, then grabbed the door handle and pulled it inside.
“Ka… Bang!!!”
The door opened and white plaster powder flew everywhere.
It was as if someone had covered the door with flour, and when the door moved, the powder flew everywhere under the orange-yellow light of the incandescent lamp.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Wei Shan covered his mouth and nose and fanned his hands vigorously to break up all the plaster powder.
"Damn it...you bastard, what a great thing you did!" Wei Shan turned around and glared at Kuai Hongji, wishing he could grab him by the neck and pull him over.
Kuai Hongji sneered, "It's none of my business."
"Hehe." Wei Shan laughed lowly.
"Okay, okay, don't be restless so early in the morning." Lin Yi frowned slightly, patted Kuai Hongji's shoulder, reached out to push Wei Shan away, and walked to the door.
For some reason, whenever Wei Shan and Kuai Hongji quarreled, he felt particularly annoyed and often subconsciously separated them.
Just now when he grabbed the door handle, he sensed that unpleasant aura, as if he had touched some kind of corpse.
I didn't expect that there was a layer of plaster powder behind the door, and even the door handle was covered with plaster-like substance.
"Wait!" Lin Yi suddenly realized something, "Could these things be..."
"Wait, wait, wait! Wait a minute!" Wei Liang interrupted in panic, taking out a few napkins to plug his ears and saying, "Lao Lin, wait a minute!"
He finally covered his ears with his hands.
"Okay, go ahead, guys. Go ahead."
"..." Lin Yi gave Wei Liang a strange look and thought to himself, you fucking know what I'm going to say.
Kuai Hongji glanced at Wei Liang with disdain, Wei Shan also sneered, and only Tian Bufan had no extra expression.
Lin Yi glanced at Tian Bufan and gave his own judgment: "Is this blood?"
Tian Bufan nodded: "The blood turned into ketchup and began to change under the light. Finally, the moment the door was opened, it completely turned into plaster powder."
Lin Yi's expression changed slightly: "So someone was attacked here last night? Could it be that those who didn't have time to return to the dormitory before 22: and didn't have time to find the dormitory manager were killed?"
Tian Bufan said: "There is no clue pointing to this point. Your statement can only be regarded as a guess. Perhaps there could be other situations?"
Lin Yi glanced at Kuai Hongji and thought of what Wei Shan had just said. Although his expression did not change, he could not help but feel some doubts in his heart...
"Kuai Kuai, do you know something?"
Kuai Hongji glanced at Wei Shan indifferently, shrugged and was about to refuse, but when he saw Lin Yi's interrogative look, he had no choice but to say:
"Fat Man and I were woken up in the middle of the night yesterday. Someone was knocking on the door for help, but we ignored him."
"Maybe he was murdered, or maybe something else... Who knows? Do you remember what the rules say? No one can open the door."
Looking at Kuai Hongji's perfunctory answer, Lin Yi knew that this answer must have been made up by Kuai Hongji. If something really happened, then things would definitely not be like that. But since Kuai Hongji said this, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Because even Wei Shan next to him shut his mouth.
At 6:47, the door of dormitory No. 1414 was pushed open, and a group of people walked out of the dormitory in a mighty procession and came to the corridor of the dormitory building.
Lin Yi looked at the door of the dormitory after the white plaster-like powder dissipated, and found that there were no more clues related to plaster, tomatoes, and blood, so he couldn't help but sigh.
After 6:00, the lighting in the corridor of the dormitory building was restored, and the group quickly arrived at the elevator room between dormitories 1401 and 1439 along the curved corridor.
Lin Yi observed the walls of the dormitory corridor and found some traces of white plaster-like powder on some of the walls, but he could not find anything without a closer look.
Passing by some dormitories, some people came out of the dormitories, but after seeing Lin Yi and his group, they consciously fell behind and formed a group based on their own dormitories.
Lin Yi pressed the elevator button and after waiting for a moment, an elevator quickly stopped inside, accompanied by a roar like that of a train.
“Bang…clang!”
The elevator door opened and a group of people walked in.
Lin Yi's eyes swept across the elevator buttons, paused for a moment on the "↑" under the sealed transparent cover, then quietly moved away, and finally pressed "1".
Then, at the moment the elevator door began to close, when the two doors began to close, the gap between the doors seemed to squeeze the space, and even the light and shadows in the corridor were distorted and squeezed.
At this moment, Lin Yi had some strange hallucinations.
He discovered that there were countless white powder particles floating and drifting in the corridor like dust. They did not seem to be the substance left after the gypsum-like substance collapsed, but... the kind of pollutants that could be absorbed and existed only in his "perception"!
He subconsciously blinked several times quickly, trying to see more clearly, but when he blinked, the already strange vision suddenly became even stranger.
He seemed to be able to see two pictures at the same time in front of his eyes. One was a normal picture of the dormitory corridor with incandescent lights on, and the other was a picture of powder particles floating on the broken glass windows.
When he blinked, the two images jumped back and forth like a flash, and disappeared only when the elevator door closed completely.
As the elevator door closed, the feeling of being isolated from the world came over me again, along with a strong sense of discomfort with the confined space.
"咈...咈..." Another heavy breathing sounded in his ears. Wei Shan was holding the built-in handrail of the elevator. His palms were constantly exerting force, and his breathing became heavier.
Lin Yi asked with concern: "Weisang, how do you feel?"
"I... am fine! 咈-咈——" Wei Shan's body rose and fell like a giant bear, his nose flapping constantly, as if he smelled something. He lowered his voice and growled, "I can feel its breath..."
“We are very close to it…”
"It's right here...it's hidden right here! This elevator! No - not the elevator, the elevator shaft!"
“咈咈咈…咈咈咈…” “I really want to tear it apart!”
Kuai Hongji huddled in the corner of the elevator, his back pressed against the right angle of the elevator car. Hearing Wei Shan's low roar, he rarely made a sarcastic statement. Instead, he stretched out his hand and gently pressed it against the wall of the elevator car, closing his eyes and feeling something.
He seemed to be feeling the vibration of the elevator, and seemed to be chasing something...
Lin Yi suddenly felt an extremely pure and cold breath. He turned his head in surprise and found Kuai Hongji huddled in the corner of the elevator. He seemed to be integrated with the elevator, and he exuded an indescribable cold breath that seemed to come from the elevator... no, outside the elevator...
Suddenly, Kuai Hongji opened his eyes. In a trance, Lin Yi seemed to see a touch of extreme golden color in Kuai Hongji's eyes. But when he frowned and looked at Kuai Hongji again, he found that Kuai Hongji's eyes were a normal black color.
A mystery emerged in his mind, but Kuai Hongji looked at Wei Shan and said, "Fatty, you are wrong."
"You are wrong, and so am I!" Wei Shan growled. He suddenly looked at the "↑" button that was sealed by a glass cover and had a red "×" on the outside.
He squinted his eyes, observed it carefully, and shook his head: "It's not this...but it's still there! It's always been there!"
Lin Yi was a little surprised by Wei Shan's reaction. He looked around vigilantly, but he could only hear the whistling wind in the elevator and the rumbling vibration of the elevator car.
"What's going on?" Wei Liang was affected by the environment and suddenly became panic-stricken. "Don't scare me!"
Wei Shan held on to the handrail tightly, his body slightly hunched, as if he would explode at any time.
At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly discovered that the elevator car, which was illuminated by LED lights, was filled with white powder particles at some point, and these powder particles were being absorbed by Wei Shan in an astonishing way!
"Weisang...?! Is this the pollution brought by Maozi, or... a new pollution that he has been exposed to?"
Lin Yi tried to wake up Wei Shan, but found that the air around Wei Shan was distorted, and his body seemed to be spewing out some blue steam that could only be detected through "perception"!
But the whole process soon ended as the elevator slowed down...
"Huhu——"
There was a constant sound of intense friction between the elevators, and the elevator as a whole began to slow down and eventually stopped.
Wei Shan's breathing over there gradually became steady, while Kuai Hongji's eyes were scanning the ceiling of the elevator car with a cold gaze.
At this time, Lin Yi could not see any changes in Wei Shan. Even the scene he saw in his "perception" just now seemed like an illusion.
"Weisang, are you okay?" he asked with concern.
Wei Shan shook his head slightly: "Lao Lin, I'm fine."
"Hehehe...if he had something to do, he wouldn't be so quiet." Kuai Hongji spoke sinisterly at this moment.
"Get lost!" Wei Shan spat angrily, "It must be you who did this! They are chasing us!"
"It's dawn, and the matter is over." Kuai Hongji shrugged coldly.
"But I feel like they are here!" Wei Shan pointed angrily at the elevator car under his feet and said in a serious tone, "Here!"
"You feel wrong."
Wei Shan grabbed Kuai Hongji by the collar and said, "Whether I am wrong or not, you know better than me!"
"Alright, alright, alright!" Seeing that Wei Shan couldn't help but take action, Lin Yi quickly interrupted them, his face looking rather grim. "So, can anyone tell me what's going on? I don't want to hear it unclearly. Who are 'they'?"
Wei Shan snorted coldly, turned his head away and said nothing.
"Kuai Kuai, you say." Lin Yi stared at Kuai Hongji.
Kuai Hongji forced out a sinister smile: "Who else could it be? It was the thing that knocked on the door in the middle of the night. Most likely it failed to get in, so it hid in the elevator and followed us... Fatty, is this what you wanted to say?"
Wei Shan snorted and still said nothing.
"Statue?" Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and asked tentatively.
After he finished speaking, his eyes moved between Wei Shan and Kuai Hongji's faces.
Unexpectedly, the expressions of these two people were terrifyingly calm, as if they were not surprised at all.
"Anything that has the characteristics of a statue is possible." Tian Bufan interrupted the topic and reminded seriously, "We're leaving the dormitory soon, don't talk about things that are beyond your cognition."
"If you have anything to say, let's discuss it together when we get back to the dormitory tonight."
At the end, he glanced at Wei Shan and Kuai Hongji with a very obvious warning look, and then motioned Lin Yi to continue: "Old Lin, continue to talk about the dream you had."
Lin Yi frowned. He did not enter Kuai Hongji's perspective when he was dreaming, so he didn't know what was special about Kuai Hongji. But it was obvious that he found in Wei Shan's dream that Wei Shan took the initiative to attack his non-human classmates and achieved certain results.
But he always felt that there might be some side effects if he attacked his non-human classmates.
Otherwise, if it were really possible to fight back against the inhuman classmates, the rules would not really be silent about it.
He had a conjecture, that is, if he attacked his non-human classmates, whether he or they were injured, it would aggravate his own contamination, because the blood flowing out after the injury would turn into ketchup, and ketchup itself was a pollutant.
But he currently has no evidence to prove this conjecture, and he also doesn't know whether the blood that flows out will turn into ketchup before the person's cognition is destroyed.
Because the little genius's cognition may have collapsed before he was killed, his blood has also been contaminated.
And it is impossible for him to cut his hand to verify this hypothesis, because he is, to some extent, already a "contaminated but at least normal-looking experimenter".
Among the few people, it seems that only Wei Liang is still normal.
"Damn it, Lao Lin, don't look at me like that! It scares me so fucking much!" Wei Liang's desire to survive was overwhelming.
Lin Yi silently withdrew his gaze.
"Ryoko was also corrupted... He just deceived himself."
He shook his head helplessly in his heart.
Come to think of it, there isn't a single normal person among these people?
Lin Yi, who suddenly realized this problem, suddenly felt his neck tighten and he felt sweaty.
"Damn it, today you realize what kind of person I am?"
First of all, thank you all for your monthly votes!!
PS: I went to the emergency room today. After examination, I found that I had a cold and some bacterial infection, which caused otitis media and sinusitis. Then I made a new appointment for tomorrow. I will tell you the details after tomorrow's examination...
