Chapter 1032: Chapter 482: Stop investigating the "Ashen Apostle," investigate "Lin Yi" instead!_2

"What you’ve mentioned, I will report it upwards, but what actions the authorities take isn’t something we can influence. But one thing is certain, whatever they decide, it will be what’s most beneficial for Huaxia—even if it requires sacrificing some people."

Lin Yi heard this and couldn’t help but fall silent.

Sacrifice...

[They will remember our sacrifice]

For some reason, he thought of this, but when he asked himself honestly, he realized he didn’t have such a strong sense of awareness.

He said, "Speaking of which... strictly speaking, there’s someone you know among my roommates."

"Who?" Class Teacher-040 had just asked when an image instinctively flashed in her mind. She blurted out, "You don’t mean Wei Liang, do you?"

"Setting everything else aside... you two indeed have one huge similarity."

"You’re saying ’both smart and foolish,’ huh," Lin Yi remarked.

"What young and what foolish? I don’t understand," the homeroom teacher was puzzled.

Lin Yi explained, "Sometimes extremely wise, sometimes incredibly foolish!"

"Just speak properly, don’t make up words!" Class Teacher-040 couldn’t help but rub her forehead, "You’re fine, your IQ isn’t low. Wei Liang... well, I don’t see anything there; he just seems lecherous to me."

"I agree on that point," Lin Yi concurred empathetically.

"You too," Class Teacher-040 added sharply, "The day before yesterday morning, just during roll call, he ogled my legs no less than a hundred times."

"That’s too vile!" Lin Yi agreed seriously.

Class Teacher-040 glanced at him disdainfully, "Only a few dozen times less than you!"

"Pff... slander! You’re slandering me!" Lin Yi howled dramatically.

But Class Teacher-040 ignored his exaggerated performance and merely said flatly, "That Wei Liang, he has the courage to be bold but not the heart. He may seem licentious, but in reality, perhaps not. Whereas you, you’re covertly lecherous, having the desire but not the courage... Still, as they say, desire is the best anchor, and that Wei Liang, apparently, has mastered this to the fullest."

"But the problem is, I’ve observed him for a long time and haven’t found any unusual behavior. When he’s in the classroom, apart from reading adult comics, he’s just staring at me... seemingly concerned only about women," Class Teacher-040 said, "Too normal to the extreme, which makes anything left abnormal."

"Are your other roommates like this too?"

Lin Yi denied it, "No, only Liangzi... and I are somewhat lecherous."

A gentleman doesn’t speak falsehoods. Just being lecherous isn’t something to hide. Even though architecture is his major, he also kind of wants to be an inspirational film censor like Tang Maru.

As for the other roommates...

Young Master Tian is as rational as a computer. Does he really have human desires?

Up until now, the only desire Young Master Tian has shown was his curiosity about the campus when enrolled.

As for Wei Sang... Wei Sang is the opposite of Young Master Tian, seemingly the embodiment of emotion and instinct, easily angered, irritable... and with many phobias like claustrophobia, trypophobia, and various psychological disorders...

As for desires?

The only desire Wei Sang seems to have is to tear Kuai Kuai to pieces?

As for Kuai Kuai... Kuai Kuai’s behavior logic is peculiar. Apart from living habits that don’t quite resemble a normal person, everything else is pretty normal.

As for Maozi... Maozi’s defining feature is sheer brazenness.

In the end...

Lin Yi exhaled a statement, "My roommates... each one is a genius."

"I... can kind of feel it," Class Teacher-040’s face turned somewhat unnatural. They say birds of a feather flock together, and from Lin Yi’s behavior, she could sense some other people’s issues.

At this moment, a bizarre idea popped into her mind—the investigation by Teacher-039 seemed to conclude with a period, but now the direction of investigation should be shifted to Lin Yi himself.

However, just as she thought of this, she hesitated. Investigate Lin Yi?

Indeed, Lin Yi harbored a tremendous mystery—

Carrying ashes yet not dying, and even becoming an "Ashen Apostle";

Crafting "puppet" while using willpower to take control and cross layers to another area;

Facing the "Primordial Ash Apostle" head-on...

With the status of an "Experience Student," traversing the Art Building without incident...

Putting these outrageous aspects aside, just the fact that he demonstrated yesterday, recovering rapidly from cuts made by a Secret Rune Dagger, is something that the secret official institution has been researching for countless years without success...

Lin Yi as a "person," no, "Lin Yi" in Class Teacher-040’s mind, had already reached a level of eeriness comparable to S City University itself.

Earlier, when she looked directly at Lin Yi, she repeatedly felt dazed, almost feeling a tendency to ’drop layers’...

It’s known that the ’drop layers’ phenomenon never occurs because of a "person."

An Experience Student might drop layers upon seeing the bizarre form of a nocturnal species;

A Sports Student might drop layers upon seeing the Angel Sculpture or being called from another layer;

Any unit might drop layers when the light of the "Primordial Ash Apostle" shines down...

But, there’s absolutely no way one can experience a layer drop just by looking at a normal person; the only explanation is that the person isn’t normal.

——Lin Yi isn’t normal at all!

Now, Class Teacher-040’s understanding naturally assumes Lin Yi is abnormal. The critical question is how abnormal it gets, and within what range she can maintain an alliance with Lin Yi.

"Could it be... because the campus is on the brink of collapse, the authorities have decided to place a ’containment item’ within S City University to achieve the purpose of fighting fire with fire? And all his roommates... are just his anchor points?" Class Teacher-040 thought irrationally.

Thinking of this, she suddenly wanted to chat with Wei Liang.

Seeing Class Teacher-040 fall silent and seemingly trapped in a whirlwind of thoughts, Lin Yi patiently waited for Class Teacher-040 to recover so that they could continue their conversation.

Little did he know, Class Teacher-040 had already begun to suspect his existence and had more than once sparked a desire to investigate him.

As he waited, feeling slightly bored, he compared the time on his watch to the wall clock.

14:40.

With no other plans, he had plenty of time.

He could wait for Class Teacher-040 to finish her thoughts and then engage in deeper conversation with her.

Given this unusual weather, according to the "Student Code," going to the cafeteria for dinner wouldn’t be possible, let alone going to the dormitory later if it kept raining, so in terms of time, he had more than enough to spare.

He naturally could wait patiently for Class Teacher-040 to think it through slowly.

He stepped back a few times, sat on the sofa, and observed Class Teacher-040.

At this moment, Class Teacher-040 appeared as if time had stopped for her...

Ahem.

Lin Yi wanted to avert his gaze but decided to stay honest with himself.

So he allowed himself to admire Class Teacher-040’s outfit a few more times while also organizing his thoughts about the Mountain Man.

Previously, after entering the area above the fifth floor of the Teaching Building, Lin Yi stumbled upon certain doubts, including discussions on why the "Primordial Ash Apostle" doesn’t enter the classroom and Zhang Lingzhen’s relationship with the will of the "Burial Body." These key points had been addressed already, and next in line were the issues related to the Mountain Man and the zealots.

Class Teacher-040 soon stopped her wild thoughts and turned her attention to Lin Yi.

She was about to speak but noticed Lin Yi seemed distracted—this audacious guy, after having his lust exposed, dared to stare at her with such a naked gaze?!

His lust seemed to transform into sinful desire!

Such wickedness!

She gritted her teeth, clicked her high heels, and marched right up to Lin Yi, tapping his forehead with her slender finger, sneering, "Still looking?! I’ll teach you a lesson!"
