Chapter 114 56 minutes and 34 seconds long video
But the digital camera had been partially solidified to the floor by the plaster-like substance, so he used a little force to pry the digital camera off.
With a "crack", the plaster-like substance in a small area around it shattered into countless powders.
"You, you, you...stay away from me! No, I want to stay away from you... You will kill me! You will kill us!"
The girl got up from her chair in panic and hurriedly ran towards the row of chairs in the distance, trying to get away from Lin Yi for fear of being contaminated by the misfortune. During this time, she was bumped by an armrest that was not properly placed, leaving a red mark on her thigh.
"Hey, classmate." Lin Yi called her, "If you really want to stay alive, sit in the back row near the window."
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he ignored her and lowered his head to fiddle with the digital camera.
However, the digital camera was not turned off, and the battery was exhausted after being turned on overnight.
Lin Yi searched around and found a small shoulder bag nearby.
He walked over and picked up the small bag, and when he unzipped it he saw some batteries.
"really……"
It is a consensus that there are no charging sockets on the campus, and there is no signal, so if the person who met Pan Jian planned to record any video, using only a camera would definitely not be enough, and he must have prepared some spare batteries in his bag.
He changed the battery for his digital camera, and the screen suddenly lit up.
"It's open!" His heart suddenly became excited.
During this time, he picked up his digital camera and small bag, returned to his seat, and opened the photo album.
第一条视频是一个长达56分34秒的视频，点开详情，显示拍摄时间是「22：47：31/7/5/X023」。
"56 minutes and 34 seconds? That long?"
He was stunned at first, then he immediately understood.
This video should be taken after Pan Jian clicked on it to start filming, but he was killed in the middle, so the digital camera continued recording until it ran out of battery and automatically saved itself, so the video is nearly an hour long.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt fortunate. If it weren't for this function, he would definitely not be able to see this precious video.
He then pressed the play button.
“Ziz—ziz—”
Two white lines appeared on the video, like the kind that appear when the TV signal is bad, and then the time popped up in the upper right corner: "22:47:31".
The video screen moved with the beat of time...
The picture shows a classroom with flickering lights. A group of students began to get up from their seats and ran around. The classroom was in chaos and exclamations were heard one after another.
The camera began to move with them, and then captured them crawling under the desks in the back row of the classroom.
When the video was taken at this point, a slight and somewhat disdainful "tsk" was heard in the chaotic and noisy picture. I think it was Pan Jian, who was recording the video, humming it out indifferently.
Pan Jian’s camera movement technique was very ordinary, just an ordinary shot. When the time on the camera reached 22:51:17, the last light in the classroom went out.
"Wow~ so exciting..." Pan Jian's voice was heard in the camera, but it was obvious that his tone was a little nervous, and of course it seemed more excited.
The camera spun around, leaving a bit of afterimage and blur in the picture. When the picture became somewhat stable, the center of the camera was facing a non-human classmate with his head drooping, slowly standing up from his seat...
The non-human classmate was originally as dull as a stone, but at this moment his expression gradually became exaggerated. His eyes widened so wide that they almost popped out of their sockets, and the corners of his mouth stretched to his ears.
suddenly--
The picture suddenly skipped across a white line, and when the picture became clear, the inhuman classmate had already appeared in front of the camera.
A huge close-up of a face suddenly appeared, with big bloodshot eyes, a crazy and devilish smile stretched from ear to ear, and teeth with saliva... It almost sent Lin Yi, who was squinting and staring at the small screen of the digital camera, away on the spot.
Lin Yi's hand shook and he almost dropped the digital camera, but he immediately grabbed it again as if by reflex.
The picture began to shake, then became clear again after a while of blurring. The camera had reached the stairs. There was a sound of flesh hitting stone outside the screen, and Pan Jian cried out in pain, "Ah - what the hell are you doing?!"
The picture suddenly turned pitch black, and then with the camera shaking, the picture shook to the scene outside the window.
I saw a white light swaying outside the window, as if it was some kind of searchlight shining through the rain and flashing back and forth.
Thunder flashed across the sky, and raindrops the size of beans hit the explosion-proof glass like bullets...
suddenly--
"etc!"
Lin Yi pressed the pause button, then rewound the video for a few seconds and pressed play again.
In the blurry picture that flashed by, Lin Yi suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some blurry figures lying outside the explosion-proof glass, like some kind of creature lying on the glass and looking into the classroom.
"What is that?" Lin Yi was a little surprised. "Is it a twisted sculpture?"
The sculpture that Lin Yi had in mind was the plaster sculpture, not the kind of human figure distorted in the bright and mottled broken glass that was defined as a "sculpture".
Lin Yi looked at it over and over again, but in the end he still couldn't see anything clearly, so he could only continue watching.
The camera was focused on the inhuman classmate. Outside the screen, Pan Jian’s heavy breathing and angry shouting could be heard: “I, I, I… I’m warning you! I’m recording you now! Everything you do will be uploaded to the Internet by me!!”
"You...you let me go! You let me go... wu——"
The screen shook and trembled, and flew out along with Pan Jian. This time, Pan Jian was unable to hold the digital camera tightly, and his hand loosened, and the digital camera fell beside him with a clang.
Another inhuman classmate appeared in the picture. When they were captured by the camera, they were shaking their stiff bodies like zombies, but each time they took action, they were extremely fast. After just a few moves, Pan Jian fell to the ground and could not move.
Gradually, dark red liquid began to flow out of his body...
The inhuman classmate moved close to it and took a deep breath, seeming to mutter something vague like "tomato" and "good". Then it bent down, picked up Pan Jian's legs, and dragged his body slowly around the classroom.
Pan Jian's body hit the digital camera while being dragged, causing the lens to be moved to another angle, aiming at the classroom door.
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes.
The screen was still for a while, and occasionally a line of electricity would flash by, and screams could be heard from time to time in the classroom...
Lin Yi pressed the fast-forward button, and soon the classroom door moved.
Lin Yi's eyes lit up, and he quickly pressed the pause button and glanced at the time on the screen. "22:53:04."
"That kind of sculpture is coming!" Lin Yi said secretly, staring at the screen with his eyes narrowed into slits.
Soon, the door handle was pressed and the door was slowly pushed open...
But at this moment, the screen started to "zizz" again, and this time it was not electric current-like lines, but the entire screen turned into snowflakes.
"Is this...broken?"
Lin Yi fiddled with the digital camera, turning it over and over in his hands, and pressed the fast-forward button in desperation.
I pressed it several times and there was no extra change even at 32x speed.
Just when Lin Yi sighed in disappointment, the scene suddenly returned.
Lin Yi quickly pressed the pause button and dialed back the video.
When the picture recovered from the snowflakes, the time on the screen was "23:02:18". The picture remained almost unchanged until "23:04:08", when the lights in the classroom gradually came back on.
After the lights were restored, the scene was quite messy. The ground had become a trail of ketchup. Under the incandescent light, the color of the ketchup was very dark, and it was almost impossible to see the traces of its existence on the dark floor tiles...
The scene hardly changed after that, except for some students who crawled out from under their desks and returned to their seats with frightened looks on their faces.
Lin Yi pressed the 32x speed, but the picture did not change. When the video ended, the time was frozen at "23:44:05".
The entire video is 56 minutes and 34 seconds long. Although the amount of information provided is extremely limited, it at least fills in his impression of the classroom after the lights were turned off. This video also once again confirms the authenticity of his dream.
Unfortunately, even the digital camera was unable to capture the image of that "conceptual-level" sculpture. Although we knew that the conceptual-level sculpture appeared, what the digital camera captured was a bunch of snowflakes.
"Snow dots...white lines?" Lin Yi replayed the video and repeatedly watched the segment where the "click" sound appeared in the screen.
He soon discovered a pattern, that is, when the screen captured the movement of the non-human classmates, if the non-human classmates moved slowly like zombies, then the picture would be normal, but once they showed the weird movement ability of almost teleportation, the picture captured by the digital camera would be a wavy line like an electric current, and it would appear with a "click" sound.
This unstable picture fluctuation reached its peak after the conceptual sculpture pushed open the door of the classroom. The picture in the digital camera that looked like electric current fluctuation lines also completely turned into snowflakes, just like the signal received by the TV completely disappeared.
Lin Yi flipped through the other contents in the album, but the only valuable thing in it was a photo of the mountain road taken on a blue bus.
The rest are a few random photos taken on campus and a few secretly shot videos of the 2D cosplayer dressed in pink. Apart from that, there is no other valuable information.
When Lin Yi was looking through the digital camera, his class teacher 040 had been watching all his actions from the moment he picked up the digital camera until now.
To be precise, she started paying attention to Lin Yi's behavior when Lin Yi bent down to pick up the digital camera.
At that time, her brows frowned slightly, and then her eyes fell on Lin Yi's name in the folder. After staring at Lin Yi's name for a few seconds, she fell into silence.
Then she held her chin and observed Lin Yi's every move. She did not say anything to Lin Yi the whole time, until Lin Yi flipped through the photo album and put the digital camera aside.
During this process, several more students pushed open the door and entered the classroom, and then she called them to sign in.
……
After looking through some photos and videos about the campus several times, Lin Yi put the digital camera aside and frowned in thought.
The digital camera’s ability to capture clues about the conceptual sculptures is broken, but…it seems that there are still clues.
In fact, there were some clues in this 56-minute video that surprised him.
The biggest clue was that blurry picture - in that fleeting shot, a figure lying outside the classroom window was captured.
The windows on that side are not close to the corridor, but to the side of the green belt.
"Lao Lin, what are you looking at?" Wei Liang stretched his neck and leaned over. "I see you've been looking for a long time. Are there any secret resources in there?"
"Sharing it with your brothers?"
Lin Yi handed over the digital camera: "Here, you can look at it if you want, but are you sure you can see it?"
Wei Liang curled his lips and said disdainfully: “You handed it to me so casually, it must be something I can… Damn it, get out of here, take it away!!”
Wei Liang only glanced at the screen of the digital camera and covered his face: "It's really not a good thing! I'd better continue reading my treasure comics!"
He pushed the digital camera back to Lin Yi, then picked up the H-manga he had just finished reading and went to the bookshelf to return the book and borrow it again.
Lin Yi took a look at the frozen image on the digital camera and shook his head helplessly.
Wei Liang was possessed by a spirit of drama. The screen of the digital camera was actually black and there was nothing on it, but Wei Liang accurately predicted that this was something he could not watch.
Lin Yi glanced at his watch.
8: 50.
In fact, he finished watching it at 8:46, and spent the next few minutes simply flipping back and forth.
He stopped flipping through the photo album and looked at the classmates in the lecture hall. There were four more students in the classroom, but the overall number was still small.
He looked at the head teacher 040 again. He could sense that the head teacher 040 seemed to be observing him, but he didn't care.
He also gave up the idea of continuing to observe the classmates in the classroom, because there was no point in observing now. If he wanted to know the casualties, he had to wait until everyone had been called.
"Eh? Roll call?"
He looked at the head teacher 040 again, and suddenly understood why the head teacher 040 had been sitting on the podium and had not returned to the office.
Class teacher 040 is counting the number of students, right?
The sign-in method makes it easy to confirm the number of casualties overnight.
"Yesterday morning, the homeroom teacher came to take roll call early, and left right after taking roll call. This was because the weather the night before was unusual, and except for the PE students who forced their way out in the fog before 21:, everyone else stayed in the classroom overnight. So she only needed to take roll call in the morning to find out the casualties of the experience students."
"But last night was different. She was able to return to the dormitory last night, so she needed to sit here and wait for everyone to go through before confirming the casualties."
This is the logic, which Lin Yi thought of yesterday morning. However, judging from the action of the head teacher 040 holding down the roll-call folder, signing in seems to be more than just that simple. This matter itself seems to hide a deeper meaning.
"That list... is definitely not just a casualty count." Lin Yi guessed, "But what is the meaning?"
Happy New Year!
Wish you all a happy new year in advance. Also, I will definitely take a leave during the Chinese New Year, so I will tell you in advance, but I will try to only take one or two days...Please forgive me~
orz……Happy New Year to everyone! Bang bang bang…bang bang bang…
