Chapter 141: Chapter 65 Dormitory Building (Added 1200 words!)

Year X023, May 7th, 19:45.

The classroom of Class 2, Group B was filled with noise. The twenty-five new students were completely unaware of the seriousness of the issue, still giggling and laughing cheerfully.

Lin Yi didn’t know if they had attention issues, but they seemed to subtly ignore those thirty-eight odd students.

He quickly scanned the classroom. Under the incandescent light, he looked over the faces of those thirty-eight odd students one by one.

"Hmm... any changes?"

Of these thirty-eight odd students, if he remembered correctly, originally sixteen of them had faces showing madness, staring wide-eyed at other students in the classroom.

The remaining twenty-two had vacant and distracted eyes, curled up in their seats like hermit crabs, not even blinking, resembling cold, lifeless stones.

But today, he found that the number of the students with vacant eyes had increased from twenty-two to twenty-five, while those with mad expressions had decreased by three.

That meant three of the students with mad expressions had turned into those with vacant eyes.

"It must be related to the depth of the ’contamination’... I don’t know if their contamination got worse or lighter," Lin Yi murmured to himself.

He then looked at the other students.

Currently, including him and Wei Liang, there were forty normal students in the class.

The remaining thirty-eight normal students (Experience Students) included thirteen who had arrived before him. Now, they too seemed numb, as if they had sealed themselves into their private worlds.

Like pseudo-autistic, they built high walls with books, fortifying themselves behind them, indifferent to the outside world.

Lin Yi thought they must have sensed something was off, but due to lack of intuition, they were somewhat doubting themselves.

However, they were sometimes overly sensitive to any slight movements, becoming paranoid and distracted, only constructing mental barriers.

They seemed to have heeded the Sports Students’ advice to abandon all thought, or possibly the homeroom teacher’s advice to not interact or care for any external disturbances—blindly, contextlessly, extremly adhering to these advices, even if there was nothing wrong with the incandescent lights in the classroom.

The twenty-five new Experience Students showed no signs of abnormalities for now.

Last were the eighteen Sports Students including Xu Shunkang and Xie Huayang.

Lin Yi had not noticed their attire yesterday, nor had he counted them, so he could not judge if their number had increased or decreased.

But he noticed the Sports Students were sitting very close to the classroom windows.

Not the windows on the side of the corridor, but the other side.

They gathered together, chatting, their eyes occasionally sweeping across the classroom, seemingly discussing something about their classmates.

Noticing Lin Yi watching them, they didn’t say anything.

But Lin Yi found they were more concerned about changes in the weather outside than anyone else, often glancing out the window.

Beyond that, their behavior did not seem different from the others.

He just briefly looked around then returned to his seat.

Only when he had returned to his seat did Wei Liang notice his presence.

"Yo, you’re back?" Wei Liang put down the comic in his hand, glanced at the clock on the wall with a half-smile, and said, "Thirty minutes, not too short, huh?"

"..." Lin Yi frowned slightly, somewhat annoyed, "Liangzi, can’t you be normal for once?"

Wei Liang spread his hands helplessly, "Come on, I’m always the normal one. On the other hand, what’s up with you? Looking so gloomy and troubled?"

"Let me guess, she didn’t like this style? Was your confession rejected?"

With his mind full of the homeroom teacher’s appearance and words, Lin Yi found himself rather distressed, hurriedly waving his hands, "Ah, Liangzi, stop joking with me, I’m really thinking hard here!"

Wei Liang appeared slightly startled, then narrowed his eyes and sensibly put away his teasing demeanor, not mentioning the homeroom teacher any further, "Alright, alright, thinking hard... But maybe you should go back to the dorm to think? It’s not a big deal now, we really can’t afford any mishap."

Lin Yi paused, then immediately understood Wei Liang’s point and nodded, "You’re right, I was rash."

"These matters are too complicated... whether to organize thoughts or truly think it through, it’s better to wait until we’re back in the dormitory," he mused.

Wei Liang, however, seemed surprised, "Really, you’re not thinking?"

"Not really," Lin Yi shook his head.

"Not like you," Wei Liang snickered.

Lin Yi didn’t reply, silently picked up a small notebook from the table, and then sat down in his chair.

"Huh, you finished with this?" he raised the notebook.

"I just thought of something, so I jotted it down briefly, just a few words," Wei Liang said irritably, "You think I’m writing an essay or what?"

"Oh... you didn’t flip through what I wrote, did you?" Lin Yi suddenly worried.

"Why would I flip through your stuff?" Wei Liang replied, "I don’t want to know things I shouldn’t."

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, puzzled, "How do you know what I wrote?"

Wei Liang smirked, "When wouldn’t I know your stuff?"
