Chapter 126: A strange wound with green gas [1000 words more! ]
"Is this one of the transformation methods that Mr. Tian wants to know?"
"However, these can only be regarded as supplementary details of the path, the entire path is still incomplete..."
"At least we need to know how to get to the Art Building after we get the student commemorative coins?"
"Are we taking the elevator? The teaching building elevator or the dormitory building elevator?"
"Or... should we take that non-existent road? I shouldn't take this road. There are so many things wrong with this road compared to the elevator."
Lin Yi pondered it for a while and slowly let go of the idea.
These are all speculations about the subsequent pathways, and there are currently no relevant clues.
And now there is something even more confusing than the student commemorative coins - the canteen.
On the third day after entering S City University, which was the 42nd hour after entering the campus, he finally came across clues related to the canteen.
Is he finally going to have an intersection with the convenience store?
Even if this is an indirect intersection because of Li Huiyuan.
What is interesting is that when he was eating in the student cafeteria before, he didn’t even see the shadow of the canteen.
However, the athlete did buy biscuits in the canteen, and Wei Liang had mentioned the canteen when chatting with him, but... he only mentioned that one sentence.
Lin Yi originally wanted to ask, but seeing Wei Liang looking a little guilty, he didn't ask.
Where is the canteen?
According to the student code of conduct, the canteen is on the first floor of the cafeteria.
But he didn't see the canteen during these visits.
"It can't be that damn No. 10 window, right?" He laughed at himself and complained in his mind with black humor.
He didn't even see the canteen, but both the sports students and the art students were able to buy what they needed in the canteen, and even the art students seemed to be able to buy some food.
Is this the meaning of the convenience store’s existence?
Directly provide three resource supply chains?
Lin Yi felt that the convenience store would not be that simple, and there seemed to be a "non-existent" convenience store owner in the convenience store.
"Non-existence" is a very strange definition, which often involves the concept of layer level. The existence of the convenience store owner suddenly becomes mysterious.
"Don't be such a jerk to the convenience store owner." Lin Yi muttered.
In any case, it now seems that the canteen has a certain transcendent status in the cafeteria and even in the entire campus of S City University, or the builders of S City University have given the canteen a very terrible positioning.
"You mean, your class teacher asked you to go to the canteen to buy student commemorative coins during dinner? Did he say anything else, such as how to swipe your card when eating? What should you do when you return to the dormitory at night?" Lin Yi asked seriously.
Li Huiyuan thought about it, then shook her head slightly: "That's all he said, nothing else... Oh, right! The teacher said that after getting the student commemorative coins, we can go to eat and use... the student commemorative coins."
Lin Yi's face darkened.
"You can use student commemorative coins to eat? It seems that student commemorative coins are indeed a kind of identity certificate... Are you an art student?"
"and then?"
"Then, I will go to her office after leaving the cafeteria. She said she will tell me what to do next only then."
"In other words, there is still a situation where you can't find a canteen and get student commemorative coins?"
Li Huiyuan was silent for a moment and nodded.
"By the way, don't you need to swipe your student ID to buy things at the canteen?"
"The teacher said that student commemorative coins are free."
Lin Yi frowned. It sounded like the student commemorative coins in the canteen were something that anyone could take at will. This actually coincided with the rules for art students. However... "free" things would inevitably have hidden dangers!
The student code of conduct also specifically emphasizes that student commemorative coins do not exist...
But if student commemorative coins can only be seen when there is a problem with cognition, doesn't it mean that those who hold student ID cards but have cognitive errors can also see student commemorative coins?
What if there are some people who like to get a bargain and see student commemorative coins being purchased for 0 yuan, will they be unable to control themselves?
Lin Yi rubbed his brows, feeling a bit overwhelmed...but luckily this situation didn't require him to worry about it.
"Did the head teacher tell you anything else?" Lin Yi felt that there should be more information than this.
"It seems... gone." Li Huiyuan still shook her head.
"That's all?" Lin Yi touched his chin, "Didn't I tell you which passage to take to enter the student cafeteria?"
"Uh... didn't say."
Lin Yi dragged out a long tone and said "hmm": "If you don't say anything, then it means that we still have to go through the student channel..."
"That should be the case. We can't take other passages, right?" Li Huiyuan said in a low voice.
Lin Yi nodded slightly: "So you plan to stay here and wait for the time to come to have dinner?"
"If you... need me to be a cannon fodder now, I can follow you..." Li Huiyuan seemed to have made a decision.
Lin Yi asked in surprise: "Are you sure?"
Li Huiyuan pursed her lips, lowered her head and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear: "I always feel that things won't be that simple... So, if I agree to follow you now, can you... help me find the location of the canteen while we have dinner?"
Lin Yi thought about it, then shook his head: "This is beyond my ability, so I dare not make any promises to you."
Li Huiyuan lowered her head unwillingly after hearing this: "Then...then I'll find it myself. Sorry..."
Lin Yi didn't say anything, but just nodded silently.
If he patted his chest and made some guarantees that he couldn't keep for the other party as soon as Li Huiyuan showed weakness, then that would be purely the behavior of a clown. Lin Yi would never do that.
In fact, he could have carefully observed the environment inside the student cafeteria while waiting in line to buy food, and tried to find the location of the canteen;
In fact, he could also pretend to look for a table after finishing his meal and then wander around in the safe area of the student cafeteria for a while...
But these are all things for the future. It is impossible for him to make a big promise to Li Huiyuan right now. It is better to keep things that may not be done even if promised to do them in mind. It will be much more useful to do them when the time comes than to say them in advance.
Therefore, if you want to refuse, you should say it clearly sometimes, so as to prevent Li Huiyuan from really putting all her chips on him.
"Oh right..." Li Huiyuan used silence to adjust her mood, then slowly asked, "Student Lin, can you explain to me what 'pollution' means?"
"Pollution? Did your homeroom teacher tell you something about that?"
"She didn't say much. She just mentioned that I was 'contaminated' and told me not to trust any strangers from now on until I got the student commemorative coins and returned to her office to see her. She didn't explain anything to me either..."
"I remembered that you mentioned pollution when we were chatting before, so I wanted to ask what that meant..."
Lin Yi asked back, "The class teacher told you not to trust any strangers, and you turned around and told me everything?"
"Isn't that what you asked?"
"You told me when I asked you?"
"What else? I was thinking... we are not strangers anymore, right?"
Lin Yi couldn't help but say, "From yesterday to today, this is only the second time we've met!"
"but I……"
But I can’t trust anyone else except you. Compared to others, you are no longer a “stranger”... Li Huiyuan pursed her lips and didn’t say anything that sounded a little corny.
Lin Yi sighed quietly, thinking that you are a girl who is really desperate and dares to board the fighter plane of a dead pilot. "Regarding the concept of 'pollution'...it's actually a bit complicated to explain." Lin Yi sorted out his thoughts a little, and then told Li Huiyuan the concept of pollution in a more understandable way.
Li Huiyuan turned pale and opened her mouth in fear.
Lin Yi waited for her for a while, then looked at the time on his watch again.
12: 23.
He looked at the pendulum clock on the blackboard again and the time was the same.
Then he retracted his gaze, looked at Li Huiyuan and asked, "I have asked almost all the questions. Do you have anything else to say?"
Li Huiyuan shook her head.
"In that case..." Lin Yi asked to recheck her back, "Turn your back to me again. I feel like I didn't check it carefully enough when we were on the road before. The green bib chef seems to have left something contamination-related on your body."
Li Huiyuan was a little hesitant at first, but when she saw Lin Yi's serious expression and heard him say that it seemed to be related to pollution, she agreed and silently turned her back to him.
Lin Yi sat upright, staring at Li Huiyuan's back carefully...
To be honest, Lin Yi was also very nervous. After observing for almost a minute, Lin Yi's face gradually became ugly.
It wasn’t because he discovered something terrifying, but because—
“Damn it… Why can’t I activate that exposure view?!”
"This is really fucking terrible! I'm so anxious!"
A layer of fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Lin Yi's forehead.
"Um... Lin, classmate Lin, how is it?" Li Huiyuan asked nervously.
"Well... this..." Lin Yi drew out his tone, feeling caught in a dilemma for a moment, not knowing what to say.
His reaction also made Li Huiyuan's heart, which was already hanging in the air, drop to the bottom of the valley, and her face became ugly...
But at this moment, Lin Yi seemed to have discovered something. He saw a scratch as thick as a hair on Li Huiyuan's back!
But he clearly remembered that he didn't see this scratch when he checked before!
Is it because I didn't check carefully enough, or is it because the scratches were too faint to see clearly?
But the scratches were obviously very faint, and what was not visible before can now be seen clearly!
It was a scratch running vertically downwards, as if a strand of hair had been pulled straight and stuck to the back.
"Could it be that it just appeared now?"
"Li Huiyuan."
"Ok?"
"There's an extra scratch on your back. Do you feel uncomfortable?"
"Huh? What scratches?"
"It's a very thin scratch, like a kitten scratch."
"I don't feel anything... where?" She tried to reach her back with her hands behind her back, but although she felt the scratches, there was no reaction.
"Here." Lin Yi grabbed her fingers and led her to touch the location of the scratch.
"I don't feel anything." Li Huiyuan touched him several times but there was no response. "Why don't you try it?"
Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
He then extended his finger and lightly touched it along the line of the scratch.
"Ouch!" At this moment, Li Huiyuan couldn't help but screamed softly, and subconsciously straightened her chest forward to break away from Lin Yi's fingers, "It's... a little itchy!"
She flexed the muscles in her back.
"It doesn't matter..." Lin Yi stopped talking before he even uttered the word "it", because his attention was completely attracted by the horrifying scene in front of him.
I saw that smoke was emanating from Li Huiyuan's back like an incense burner. The smoke was very thin, like the smoke that comes out after burning incense during festivals when worshiping ancestors.
It was very thin, rising slowly, then hovering above her head for a long time.
What terrified Lin Yi was that the smoke was a strange green color!
Just when Li Huiyuan subconsciously twisted her back because of the itch on her back, and the amplitude of her movement exceeded a certain extent, a tiny cut appeared on the skin on her back!
When the cut heals, it looks like a hair-thin scratch!
That scratch was not a scratch at all, but a wound, a weird wound!!!
Lin Yi felt a strong sense of discomfort and weirdness in his heart. In his eyes, Li Huiyuan was like some kind of humanoid creature with the flesh and skin of "Li Huiyuan". There was a crack on the back of that body, and when the crack was not sealed tightly, a green breath escaped from it!
He suddenly realized a key point!
There seems to be a bigger "hole" under Li Huiyuan's black sports vest!
"That green light!"
Lin Yi thought of how he had seen a brighter green spot on Li Huiyuan's sports vest through that exposed vision before.
"Li Huiyuan!" Lin Yi called out to Li Huiyuan, "Hold on for a moment, I think I discovered something!"
Li Huiyuan's body suddenly stiffened, and Lin Yi took the opportunity to grab her sports vest and pulled it hard.
"excuse me!"
With this pull, a thick green smoke instantly rose from the sports vest, as if a firecracker was set off on the back!
As soon as the thick smoke appeared, it rushed straight towards the face of Lin Yi, who was closest to him, like a weasel farting or a cuttlefish spraying juice. Seeing that it was about to kill him by surprise, he exhaled for some unknown reason, subconsciously wanting to blow away the dark green smoke.
But he didn't even know what this thing was, so Lin Yi's subconscious behavior naturally couldn't achieve the desired effect. But a lucky scene appeared. The back seat that Lin Yi chose was just under the sunlight, so when the dark green smoke rushed out, it was immediately burned by the sunlight, and "whoosh" separated into some green powder particles and white powder particles, and then each floated away.
When the green aura completely disappeared, Lin Yi found a tiny white granular substance inside Li Huiyuan's sports vest.
He stretched out two fingers, pinched it and took it out, and placed it in front of Li Huiyuan: "This thing has been sticking to your back in your sports vest. Can you feel it?"
Li Huiyuan took the white plaster fragment the size of a fingernail and her brows gradually tightened.
"It's always been on my back? That's strange, it's not thin... but I really can't feel it there. It looks like a piece of plaster..."
She tried to pinch it, and the white granular substance shattered into powder and dissipated on the spot.
Lin Yi glanced at her back. At this moment, the line as thick as a hair had faded a lot, and the green smoke was no longer emanating. However, it just became a little lighter and there was no sign of disappearing.
"The scratch is still there." Lin Yi said, "It looks like when the green hat grabbed you, it scratched your back and then the nail broke on your back."
"But there's one thing I don't understand. Even if that thing is broken, it shouldn't be embedded in your vest. What's going on?"
While Lin Yi was talking, he couldn't help but pull open the sports vest to confirm. There was no trace at the location where the plaster fragments were, and there were no pressure marks on Li Huiyuan's back caused by the tightness of the sports vest... Everything was as if it had never existed at all.
Lin Yi smacked his lips, frowned, and subconsciously loosened his hand. The sports vest bounced back with a "snap", catching Li Huiyuan off guard.
Li Huiyuan rubbed her back with her hands behind her back, her cheeks slightly red, and turned her head away with some dissatisfaction. Just as she was about to mutter something, she suddenly saw Wei Liang with his mouth wide open, looking helpless and heartbroken.
Wei Liang was so shocked that he loosened his grip, and the H-comics he had carefully selected in his arms fell to the ground.
"Fuck, are you guys...practicing the Jade Girl Heart Sutra?!"
"Lao Lin, you can't be called a brother if you have such a good thing! You secretly help others push their backs and grease them!!!" Wei Liang covered his face and cried, with a painful expression as if saying, "I treat you as a good brother, but you really sent me away when you have good things."
Seeing such outstanding acting skills, Lin Yi exclaimed, "Wow, you're great!" I won't watch the next Oscars if you're not there.
"..." Lin Yi spread his hands helplessly. Facing Wei Liang, the talkative king who lied to himself that he had touched the stockings and beautiful legs, he decided to explain it in the simplest way, so he said, "Yes, we are practicing the Jade Girl Heart Sutra."
"Get lost! I don't believe it!" Wei Liang didn't believe it at all, but when he saw Li Huiyuan's slightly flushed cheeks, he had a sense of déjà vu from a daily life movie, like the famous Warcraft plot of "I was cutting vegetables in the kitchen and my best friend was making love behind the kitchen door without me knowing"...
