Chapter 157 The human sculpture climbs the stairs

Chapter 157 The human sculpture climbs the stairs
X023年5月8日,18:15,林异带着李慧鸢行走在前往的B组2班的走廊里。

Most of the incandescent lamps in the campus have been lit. The field formed by the orange-yellow light has opened up a piece of pure land. A large amount of fog fills the world and continues to penetrate into the lights. However, no matter how the fog penetrates, as long as it enters the corridor, it will become thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye and finally dissipate.

But when the two of them arrived at the "Teacher's Office (Group B Class 2)", Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Why don't we go and tell the class teacher about your situation first?"

The homeroom teacher will come to take roll call before the classroom is locked at 21:00, but that is still more than 2 hours away.

Lin Yi believes that such things must be notified in advance so that the class teacher has enough time to make some arrangements in advance.

Judging from his understanding of the class teacher-039, the class teacher has received rigorous training, and the "Class Teacher Code" may contain ways to deal with various situations.

However, all of this is definitely affected by time, and if problems are delayed, it will be a big problem.

Since it concerns her own safety, Li Huiyuan naturally would not object and nodded immediately.

Lin Yi then helped Li Huiyuan to the door of the teacher's office and then stepped back a little.

Li Huiyuan glanced at Lin Yi, and Lin Yi nodded at her with an encouraging look.

Li Huiyuan took a deep breath and knocked on the door of the teacher's office.

About half a minute later, the voice of the homeroom teacher-040 rang from inside the door: "Who?"

"Teacher, it's me... Li Huiyuan. I lost my student ID at noon. You asked me to go to the canteen to buy student commemorative coins. " Li Huiyuan said a little nervously. She held the door with one hand, and her standing posture was a little awkward, as if her right foot couldn't bear the force.

"Li Huiyuan..."

With a "click", the peephole on the office door was cut open from the inside by the class teacher 040, and a big eyeball looked at the outside environment through the peephole.

"Lin Yi is with you?" Homeroom Teacher-040 suddenly asked.

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that his homeroom teacher 040 would remember him. He nodded immediately: "Yes, teacher, I'm here. My student number is X0230..."

"No need to report, it's fine as long as it's still here." Homeroom Teacher-040 interrupted, "It's foggy, just keep your student ID card safe, and don't reveal your real student ID number in an unusual environment."

"Uh... OK teacher."

"Is there anyone else around?"

"No more, just us."

"..." Class teacher-040 was silent for a moment, "No...Okay, Li Huiyuan, you...wait, Lin Yi, do you need to withdraw from the following conversation?"

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes subconsciously, because this sentence was not expressing an affirmative request, but a question.

From a tone of giving orders, it changed to a tone of negotiation...

"Homeroom Teacher-040 guessed that Li Huiyuan and I were working together?"

In fact, it is not difficult to guess, but what surprised Lin Yi was that the homeroom teacher-040 did not object to a "mediocre experience student" like himself getting involved in such a highly polluting game.

"Could it be that Homeroom Teacher-039 left her some information about my high sensitivity?"

Lin Yi had some guesses for a moment, but since the head teacher-040 said so, he could save a lot of roundabout steps, so he shook his head: "No need to avoid the teacher, I believe I have enough willpower to anchor myself."

He deliberately mentioned "will" and "anchor" to convince Homeroom Teacher-040 that he did have the confidence to know some information.

The head teacher-040 asked Li Huiyuan about what happened in the canteen. Li Huiyuan told him everything, from the blue bib chef who was "like here" to the green bib chef in the form of a humanoid spider, to the weird art student who invited her to eat tomato meat sauce pasta, to the moment when the lights in the cafeteria flashed and she followed Lin Yi to find the location of the canteen and entered the canteen...

Then, he encountered fog pouring into the store and narrowly escaped death...

The whole process was thrilling, as if performing a scene from Tomb Raider or Indiana Jones. The only flaw and shortcoming was that no student commemorative coins corresponding to the treasure were found.

When Li Huiyuan was reporting the "battle situation" to the head teacher, Lin Yi suddenly sensed something and couldn't help but squint his eyes and glance sideways at the steps of the teaching building.

At this point, the outside of the teaching building was already full of fog. The entire teaching building was like a toy isolated in the fog by a glass cover. The area extended by the lights provided a safe environment without fog inside the glass cover, while outside the glass cover the fog was surging. Nothing could be seen except the wandering shadows, and even the moonlight could not be seen.

But at this moment, it was as if it was infinitely approaching the glass cover, and its momentum did not decrease at all. It finally penetrated the glass cover and stepped into the field formed by the lights from under the foggy steps...

One foot.

A pure white sculptural foot wearing a sneaker.

Lin Yi's pupils suddenly trembled, and his hair stood on end as if it had been electrocuted, as if it could reach the sky.

The human sculpture is going up the stairs!

"grass!"

"Don't panic." Class teacher 040, who was listening to Li Huiyuan's report, observed Lin Yi and the situation outside the corridor through the cat's eye and said in a very calm tone, "They are harmless under the light, don't worry about them."

Although the homeroom teacher-040 said so, Lin Yi did not relax at all. Instead, he chose to quietly approach some walls, ready to run to Group B Class 2 with Li Huiyuan at any time.

And then there appeared a scene that made Lin Yi feel incredible. He saw that the calf of the sculptured foot actually had obvious muscle lines. It did not look like a stiff plaster-like substance at all. Instead, it began to be full of flesh, as if the human body was coated with special materials and then cosplayed.

I saw the human-shaped sculpture's legs exert a little force, and then as if climbing stairs, the whole body was pulled out of the fog, passed through the field formed by the lights, and entered the light from the dark and foggy world.

This is indeed a human-shaped sculpture. Its limbs are still a little stiff, and it stops moving after standing on the steps.

It closed its eyes and remained motionless, and at this moment it looked exactly like a sculpture. [They are harmless under the light.]

Lin Yi's ears seemed to echo with the words of class teacher 040, but at the same time, another voice overshadowed these words: [When you or the sculpture are within the range of light, you are safe and the sculpture is harmless. ]

This is the description of the safety status of the art building in the Art Student Guidelines.

The highlight is that it is safe under the light.

And this safety remains valid even when the sculpture appears!

Lin Yi's heart trembled. He was more concerned about the commonality between the rules and the words of the class teacher-040. It can be seen that no matter what identity a person has, [being under the light] means being in a relatively safe state.

This is one of the underlying logics of security, and should also be helpful to Li Huiyuan.

He then looked at the sculpture, which was almost in absolute stillness, and gradually, he discovered something was wrong, because although this humanoid sculpture had come to the part of the stairs covered by the corridor lights, wisps of mist were floating around its body as if entangled.

The mists were like the belt-like breath lingering around the peak of a snow-capped mountain, surrounding the human-shaped sculpture, and the end was connected to the mist behind it that was shrouded in darkness like an umbilical cord.

As the human-shaped sculpture stood still, the mist was continuously peeled off from its body, and then returned to the mist behind it at an extremely slow speed.

As the mist dissipated, the pure white plaster texture of the human sculpture began to slowly weaken, slowly changing from pure white to grayish white, and then from grayish white to blue-gray, and finally, to the skin color of a normal person...

As this change occurred, the clothing on the human-shaped sculptures gradually turned into normal attire.

When the fog completely dissipated, the human-shaped sculpture in front of him no longer looked like a human-shaped sculpture, but had become something that Lin Yi was very familiar with—

"'Non-human classmates'?!"

Lin Yi's heart suddenly skipped a beat. What did he see?
What did he see? !

The human sculpture...transformed into a non-human classmate in front of him! !
“Fuck!!”

There is nothing more shocking than transforming in front of others!

For example, Ultraman's human body shouts "chicken" in front of you, Kamen Rider shouts "Hey Shin" in front of people, and the female Ultraman's human body has her suit torn off in front of the monster... well, this doesn't count.

All in all, Lin Yi was shocked beyond words, and countless inspirations flashed through his mind in an instant, but the emergence of these inspirations made him tremble all over and feel creepy.

"After the humanoid sculpture entered the range of the light, the light expelled the pollution in its body, turning it into a 'non-human classmate' with a lesser degree of pollution?"

He immediately suppressed the urge to think in this direction, and instead gave himself a hint in his mind to dilute the negative impact of this cognition.

['The human-shaped sculpture looks like a non-human under the light', don't question it, don't think about it, don't overthink it. ]

He repeated it silently in his mind several times, then took a deep breath and forced himself to accept this information.

He understood that this kind of thing touched upon the essential transformation and involved the logic of the core layer of pollution. He absolutely could not think or reason in such a place, and even the slightest thought related to it could not arise.

So he "sealed" everything he had just seen in his mind, and left it for analysis "frame by frame" after returning to the dormitory. He must study the underwear of this human sculpture thoroughly, or in other words, overwrite his cognition at that time.

Just like when overwriting the cognitive relationship between tomatoes and hearts.

After the humanoid sculpture turned into a non-human classmate, it slowly opened its eyes.

At this time, its eyes are normal, but their gaze is empty and distracted, and they cannot focus at all, as if the eyes of the sculpture itself have no pupils, so even if they are transformed into "people", they can't see anything at all.

The non-human classmate took stiff steps and climbed up the stairs like a puppet. After walking up a few steps, he came to the corridor.

It seemed as if it didn't see Lin Yi, and just passed by them. The hazy feeling of passing by was very similar to the feeling of the male and female protagonists in brainless romance dramas who were walking at a crossroads, clearly seeing each other but pretending not to see, "just passing by your whole world"...

It's outrageous, but it's the truth.

Not only that, as time went by, Lin Yi discovered that more and more human-shaped sculptures in the fog began to penetrate the boundary between light and darkness, like alien soldiers landing on the earth. They stood on the first step with light, then began to walk up the steps, entered the corridor, shuttled mechanically in the corridor, and finally pushed open the door of the classroom and walked in.

"Some of my classmates are actually like this?!"

When Lin Yi thought that some of the human-shaped sculptures in these sculpture arrays were his classmates from Class 2, Group B, he felt an uncontrollable chill in his heart, and goose bumps appeared on his arms one after another.

Lin Yi still didn't think too much about the transformation conditions between the human-shaped sculpture and the non-human classmate, but he thought of one thing - the human-shaped sculpture would turn into a non-human classmate under the light, so could it be considered the other way around, that when the layer fell and the fog came back, the non-human classmate would turn into a human-shaped sculpture?
That is to say...

After the lights in the classroom were turned off, fog poured in from outside the door. The non-human students absorbed it and turned into human sculptures again. Then they began to kill the students whose cognition was unstable when they saw them?
Because the experience students have no knowledge of the art department's rules and regulations, they have no idea what "sculpture" is, let alone what kind of cognitive impact seeing a moving sculpture will have.

Once questions such as "Is that a moving sculpture, or a person dressed as a sculpture?", "Aren't all sculptures half-body sculptures and in the Art Building? So am I in the Teaching Building or the Art Building now?" arise in the minds of the students, their cognition will be problematic. When the mist representing pollution invades their bodies, the human-shaped sculptures will be able to sense their location.

Then, once the experiencer looks at them again, they can let them launch a void search on the experiencer and then kill him.

And after the experiencer was killed... since the pollution still remained in the body, it would turn into that white plaster-like substance under the sunlight?

So, after being killed, the experience students will also become nocturnal species, or become non-human classmates?

Li Huiyuan was still explaining the details of going to the cafeteria for dinner with her homeroom teacher-040, and she was completely unaware that the temperature of Lin Yi beside her had slowly dropped.

Lin Yi did exercise self-restraint, but he underestimated the "pollution value" brought by this piece of information and his own inspiration, so he still uncontrollably thought about this level...
