Chapter 161 "Mountain Man"
Chapter 161 "Mountain Man"
The content of the 20th note is: [There is a teaching building D, but Building D does not seem to be in this space.
The teaching building has a basement, but it is not known under what circumstances the stairwell leading to the basement can appear. 】
He erased the word "seemingly" and continued:
"The teaching building has a basement (crossed out later). People who have lost their student IDs will see the stairwell leading to the basement after they are contaminated (or the layers fall off or something else?)"
There were 20 notes in total. After Lin Yi finished revising them, he took a look from beginning to end. After confirming that there were no problems, he simply sorted out the ideas for the day and began to add some new notes:
"23. The canteen is located on the first floor of the cafeteria, where there is no light but can be illuminated by sunlight. This location information may be related to some characteristics of the layer where it is located."
“Maybe the commissary has more than one layer?”
"24. The green mist emitted by the polluter will also attract the attention of strange units such as nocturnal creatures."
"25. I have not yet figured out the mechanism of non-human units searching for enemies in the void."
"26. If necessary, you can actively attack the polluter, but it is easy to get stained with ketchup, and you don't know if it will cause adverse consequences."
"27. The teaching building is the nest of nocturnal species."
"28......."
He paused, changed the period of the previous sentence into a comma, and added: "...One of them has not yet understood the life form of the nocturnal species, but it can be killed by using sunlight."
"28. The blue bib chef of "As is"..."
Having written this, he suddenly couldn’t continue. He turned the pen around in his hand and in the end he didn’t know what to write. In the end, this line became “as written”.
"29. The fighting ability of art students may not be inferior to that of sports students."
"30. Leaving the canteen, you will enter the student passage."
After writing this, Lin Yi suddenly got goose bumps. The relationship between the world beneath the layers of S City University and the real world seemed to have become a microcosm between the canteen and the cafeteria.
The process of going from the student cafeteria to the canteen, and then leaving the canteen to appear in the student passage, reveals a strong sense of collapsed and distorted space, as if the glass corridor bridge was twisted into a Möbius strip, walking through the inner and outer worlds invisibly, which is even smoother than Balenciaga.
After writing the 30th note, Lin Yi went back to read the most recent 10 notes, and then he found that the style of his note had become weird since he wrote "Tomato is the heart".
And the newly added notes seem to be written in an even more bizarre and mysterious way.
These 30 notes are simply a forbidden book that is gradually falling apart. Lin Yi couldn't help but think again, if his note book accidentally fell, and someone picked it up and started reading from the first note, would they go crazy before they finished reading?
But Lin Yi immediately shook his head and muttered strangely: "Strange, why the hell would I have such an idea?"
His original intention was not to show it to others, otherwise he would have turned to the first page and written on the first page after the cover was opened, "My name is Lin Yi. When you see this book, I will be dead", and added a sentence "Hehehe", wouldn't that have directly created the perfect atmosphere?
"You... are about to become a forbidden book..." Ye Shen Lin Yiyue patted his Death Note and couldn't help but sigh.
……
Li Huiyuan on the side was casually flipping through the comics. She seemed to be reading the comics, but in fact her mind was no longer in the comics. Her gaze drifted away from the comics, looking at Lin Yi and then at Wei Liang. She always felt that the two of them seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog that made it impossible to see through them.
Especially this big guy named Wei Liang, who punched and kicked the chef in the green bib and was able to escape unscathed in the end. It's really outrageous!
Even now, when I'm picking my nose and looking between people's cracks, it feels like I'm setting up some kind of foreshadowing.
As if he had noticed Li Huiyuan's gaze, Wei Liang blew on the finger that he had just put to his mouth without leaving any trace. When he found that he couldn't blow away the old booger, he flicked it hard and the booger in the gap between his fingernails flew out...
Li Huiyuan instantly understood that this was Wei Liang's silent warning to her, telling her not to look at things she shouldn't look at, otherwise he would flick her away like a booger...
So she quickly lowered her head and started reading the comic book without even taking a breath.
Time passed quietly, and suddenly, a series of "click-bang" sounds pierced through the noisy noise and fell into Lin Yi's ears.
When he looked up, he saw a figure rushing into the classroom door and pushing it shut with his back.
This person was actually the middle-aged intern who had not returned to the classroom before.
After he entered the room, he casually threw a large bag at his feet, and then began to breathe heavily, so fast that he couldn't keep up with his breathing, and then it turned into a violent coughing.
As he coughed, large amounts of dust and dirt fell from his body, just like a hero in an old martial arts movie punching.
The dust kept falling down, and Lin Yi found it hard to imagine where he got so much dust from. He looked like he had just crawled out of cigarette ashes.
"Cough cough..." He supported his knees with his hands and propped his backpack against the classroom door. He slowly calmed down from coughing, and then began to mutter some vague words.
Wei Liang was also startled by the noise. He looked up and saw the middle-aged trainee. He subconsciously exclaimed "Fuck!", then rubbed his eyes and slapped Lin Yi beside him: "Old Lin, Old Lin, my god, the snail has become a spirit!"
"It's that middle-aged trainee who's obsessed with women..." Lin Yi held his forehead and glanced at Wei Liang helplessly.
Wei Liang took a quick look and then suddenly realized, "Oh, oh, oh! It's that 'mountain man'. You know what, the more I look at him, the more he looks like me!"
The name "Mountain Man" actually comes from the GBA game Pokémon X-Gem. The original translation is "Mountain Climbing Men", which refers to a group of middle-aged strange men who prefer to train Geodude, Rhythm and Rhydon. Since players are always caught by this group and then have a fight when they are running around in the map, coupled with the pirated translation at the time, the name displayed became the Yamaguchi Ichizo who sounds very similar to the Young and Dangerous guys, abbreviated as "Mountain Man".
"Pfft...have you played too much fucking 'Pokemon'?" Lin Yi couldn't help but complain, but stopped there and turned his attention to the mountain man.
Then he noticed some mud debris at the mountain man's feet.
"Did he really go hiking?" Lin Yi muttered.
"If a mountain man doesn't climb mountains, is he going skiing?" Wei Liang said disdainfully.
"You noticed these details at the beginning, so you reminded me that he was a 'mountain man'?" Lin Yi said.
Wei Liang was stunned, then retreated tactically: "Old Lin, what the fuck is wrong with you? Why do you always criticize my behavior recently? I was just saying it casually."
Lin Yi curled his lips: "Okay, okay, I overestimated you."
"That's more like it." Wei Liang emphasized, "I'm still planning to cling to your thigh, please correct your position first!"
Lin Yi didn't reply, but frowned secretly in his heart.
Given Wei Liang’s personality, his reaction just now should have been “Yeah, I fucking found out a long time ago, hehehehe…”, and it was impossible for him to say those words…
In addition, Wei Liang once said "it's dark under the lamp" before leaving the cafeteria, and later it was proved that when the canteen appeared, it was indeed a perfect match for the three words "it's dark under the lamp"...
If everything is a coincidence, then these coincidences are inevitable. Since Wei Liang didn't say anything, Lin Yi didn't ask any more questions.
But Lin Yi already had some answers in his mind - "Liangzi feels like a man who has turned his strange skills into passive ones..."
And he also turned his attention to Shannan.
After catching his breath, Shan Nan brushed off the dust on his body, then took out a pocket watch from his shirt and trouser pockets.
After checking his pocket watch, he looked at the pendulum clock on the wall, then frowned and muttered something, then unzipped his backpack and took out a small notebook, and used the signature pen that came with the notebook to quickly write down some data or something...
Lin Yi seemed to see his own shadow in these steps, but he felt that Shan Nan was more awesome because this guy wore an extra watch than him.
Stable, so stable in fact.
Suddenly, Shannan noticed the words on the blackboard.
Then, just like Lin Yi did at the beginning, he quickly put on his bag, carried another bag, and quickened his pace to the podium.
He quickly read the messages on the blackboard.
Just when Lin Yi was curious about what he would do next, he saw him reach out and gently touch the words. After his fingers were stained with "chalk dust", he put them in front of him and twisted them.
An interesting scene appeared. After the chalk dust was crushed, it did not fall down naturally, but floated upwards and immediately dissipated into the air.
This confirmed Lin Yi's guess that these things were indeed written with polluted blood. However, another point that surprised him was that this mountain man was obviously very familiar with this kind of thing, otherwise he would not have touched it directly with his hands.
Considering how calm he was before and didn't look like an ordinary trainee, Lin Yi guessed that he must have been here before.
"This mountain man might be a second-rate big shot!" Lin Yi whispered.
Wei Liang rolled his eyes and patted his chest: "I'm also a big shot in the second brush!"
"Boss, take me with you."
"I can't carry it with me. Goodbye."
"These are probably true..." Lin Yi joked but his eyes never left Shan Nan. He realized that Shan Nan had another move.
He took out a piece of metal from his pocket, then took out a piece of paper and began to scrape the words off the blackboard with the metal.
When he scraped off part of the strokes of a character, a pinch of plaster powder as big as an adult's fingernail had accumulated on the paper. He wrapped up the paper and opened the door and left the classroom.
Half a minute later, he returned to the classroom. The paper in his hand had disappeared, and his face looked terribly solemn, as if he had suffered some terrifying attack in the past half minute.
He returned to the podium and searched everywhere, but to no avail. He then walked to the stairs with his bags and sat down in a random seat.
After sitting down, he did nothing but breathed quietly.
"He's planning to leave." Lin Yi said in a low voice, "It seems that he has used his own method to determine the credibility of the words on the blackboard."
"Anyone who dares to leave the classroom at this time is a wolf." Wei Liang said.
Li Huiyuan asked in confusion: "How do you know he's leaving?"
"Look at him. He didn't even put down his bag after sitting down. It's obvious that he doesn't plan to stay." Lin Yi determined whether he would stay or go based on one detail.
"But if he leaves now, where can he go?"
"He's a mountain man, maybe he's setting up a small tent in the mountains!" Wei Liang said, "Look at his outfit, it's obvious he's well prepared. Even if he told me he was here to rob a tomb, I would believe him."
"Hey look, he's getting up! Oh my god, is he really going out to set up a tent?"
Wei Liang couldn't help but widen his eyes as he watched Shannan start to stand up.
The other trainees who were arguing had the same reaction as him.
Seeing Shannan stand up and walk out of the classroom, several students looked at each other, immediately plucked up the courage to follow him, trying to ask something.
There was no way. Shannan's behavior was so strange that he was totally out of tune with everyone in the classroom.
This can no longer be described as a generation gap due to age.
"Um...excuse me, uncle, are you going out?" an unknown short-haired trainee asked anxiously.
Shan Nan paused for a moment, then turned around and looked at him and said, "Yes."
"Do you believe the message on the blackboard?" the short-haired trainee asked.
Although Shannan looks somewhat strong and has a stern face that shows a deep hatred and resentment, as if all the past lives of Buddha Amitabha were slapped in the face and walked away with a guilty conscience, his attitude is completely opposite to his appearance.
"The message on the blackboard is correct. I really can't stay in the classroom anymore."
His voice was not loud, but it was full of energy. Besides, almost everyone except those inhuman classmates paid attention to it at that time, so almost everyone could hear his words clearly.
"But...if you leave the classroom now, where are you going? There shouldn't be anywhere to go outside."
Shan Nan shook his head slightly: "I'm going back to the dormitory."
"Ah?" The short-haired trainee was stunned, but another trainee next to him who had been to the dormitory before knew the rules there and raised an objection on the spot, "That's not right. The elevator in the dormitory building doesn't open until 21:19. It's not even 00: yet. There's no point in rushing over, right?"
This was also Lin Yi's idea. He glanced at the time.
The pendulum clock on the wall showed 18:50, and there were still nearly two hours until the dormitory building elevator opened at 21:00. Putting aside abnormal weather conditions, even if it took half an hour to walk back now, I would still have to wait in front of the last street light in front of the dormitory building, "Dormitory Building-096", for nearly an hour and a half.
And once it rains, perhaps even the street lights cannot provide safe shelter.
What basis does Shannan have for leaving the classroom now?
Thanks to the book friend "usjdnshhs" for the reward!!
(If I forget to thank you in the latest chapter, I will make up for it. Please forgive me for the big rewards~)
PS: I have a headache recently... I am not feeling well.
