Chapter 168: Chapter 77 There was No Blue or Green in the Campus_2
Then the problem hidden within is really quite significant!
"So the head teacher was right," Lin Yi’s eyes darted from side to side, "If we want to leave, we can only stay here for a full seven days or find the logic within and discover a true way out!"
Tian Bufan nodded, "For ’us’... yes."
"Remember that feeling? The moment we stepped into the school gates, they were already closed to us. Even if we could return to the gates, there’s no guarantee we could leave the campus."
"If we want to leave, we can only find the moment when the layers of the campus sync up with the outside world and pass through that gate."
Lin Yi hit the wall forcefully, "How are we supposed to find something like that?"
"Don’t try to search for it intentionally, especially before I have figured out the relationships between the various layers of the campus. It’s best for none of us to go near the school gate," Tian Bufan said.
"Because the person who established the rules clearly knows the problems with the campus, and yet the school keeps recruiting experience students from outside. That means this place isn’t somewhere you can ’come and go as you please’..."
"You could think of it as if we’ve entered a ’game’, and our goal is to ’safely leave this game’."
"There are two ways to achieve this goal. The first is as a player who, after completing the seven-day experience, gains the qualifications to ’leave’."
"The other is as a hacker, to find the running code of the game, to locate the window left by the developers, and use the secret key to ’leave’ directly."
Lin Yi nodded in silence, Tian Bufan had proposed this "game theory" the moment they entered the school gates, which indeed made it easier for him to understand.
As for leaving, he had stopped thinking about it for now.
The two of them thus put a perfect period at the end of their discussion about the first issue.
One: [The campus’s layers are an independent space, but the layers of the campus fluctuate with abnormal weather, though currently, the bottom line of the layers is unknown]——√
"Let’s continue," Tian Bufan said.
Lin Yi nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Should we finish talking about the buildings first?"
"No need," Tian Bufan shook his head, "Just continue in the order we encountered upon entering the campus. We can expand the topic, but let’s not digress too much, or we might overlook important details."
"Okay."
As they were speaking, the bathroom door slowly opened, and Wei Shan, wearing clean clothes and panting heavily, walked out from behind it.
"Wei Sang, are you okay?" Tian Bufan glanced at Wei Shan.
Wei Shan gave a cold look at the bathroom door, then said, "If anyone’s not okay, it’s not me."
With that, he walked to the washing machine, opened the door, and stuffed all of his changed clothes inside.
Lin Yi suddenly noticed that on the clothes Wei Shan had taken off... there seemed to be some bloodstains.
"Wei Sang, are you really okay?" Lin Yi asked with concern.
"I’m fine," Wei Shan climbed into bed and lay down directly, "Just too heated, a little nosebleed is all."
"Heh... good thing it’s just a bit of blood," Kuai Hongji sneered coldly.
’Bang!’
Wei Shan punched the wall, and the entire dormitory seemed to shake.
"Yin Bi, if it had been you, you might not have made it out alive! Aren’t you going to thank me for leading the way?" Wei Shan retorted.
Kuai Hongji shrugged, "I thank you, yeah."
"Enough with the bickering!" Seeing Kuai Hongji and Wei Shan start to quarrel at the drop of a hat, Lin Yi, who was trying to concentrate on the problem at hand, felt his head was about to explode and hurriedly interrupted, "Kuai Kuai, you go take a shower now!"
"Okay, okay..." Kuai Hongji rose from his chair, grabbed his prepared change of clothes, and headed towards the bathroom.
He opened the bathroom door, then paused slightly.
"Wei Sang..." He looked at Wei Shan, who was silently sitting on the bed, and said with a smirk, "Cooking takes practice."
"Get lost!" Wei Shan threw a pillow, Kuai Hongji closed the door, and the pillow struck the door like a battering ram with a ’thunk’.
Lin Yi sighed. Wei Shan and Kuai Hongji naturally didn’t get along, one was quick-tempered and easily angered, the other had a cold air about him. They were like oil and water, hardly able to be in the same room without starting a fight.
He looked at Tian Bufan and returned to the matter at hand, "Continue talking..."
"We entered the school district during abnormal weather, which means we were not in the normal layer from the beginning."
Tian Bufan listened.
"After we got off the bus, we met some fake teachers and students," Lin Yi said, "Up to now, I have not encountered anyone similar to them, Young Master Tian, have you?"
"I have seen them, though," Tian Bufan said, "They are Art Students."
"They are Art Students?" Lin Yi asked dubiously, "How did you determine that?"
Tian Bufan said, "I saw people similar to them in the classroom yesterday, and according to the Sports Students, they are Art Students... Moreover, from the tone of the Sports Students, it seems that there are also different kinds of Art Students."
Lin Yi remembered that Tian Bufan mentioned yesterday in the Gymnasium that the Sports Students and Art Students had fought.
"Is it related to the ’fight’ you mentioned?"
Tian Bufan nodded.
"Can we talk about this now?"
"Then, while we have the chance, let’s talk about this matter that you’ve been curious about first."
Lin Yi sat up straighter.
Tian Bufan then said, "My class is on the 2nd floor of Building C, with a total of 95 people, 33 of whom are Sports Students, 17 are Experience Students, and the remaining 45 are those abnormal people in total."
Lin Yi’s eyes brightened: "Could it be that those odd fellows are the Art Students?"
He had his suspicions, but was never certain.
Tian Bufan seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and continued, "You must have also encountered those abnormal people, right? Every class has them, and they always have three characteristics."
"The first type has a vacant expression, numb like rotten wood."
"The second type has a crazed look, restrained like a beast lying in wait to hunt."
"And the third type... they look normal at a glance, but like the Sports Students, they have distinct uniform colors."
"Their clothes are yellow and green, and there are many white powder particles on the clothes... those are the normal Art Students."
Lin Yi exclaimed in surprise, "I’ve only encountered the first two kinds of people, not the third."
"Not right..." Lin Yi seemed to remember something; an image slowly emerged in his mind—the Sailor Uniform girl who left with the fake teacher the evening before.
Today, when he saw that girl in the Cafeteria area, her Sailor Uniform... seemed to have irregular patches of yellow and green, as if stained with paint...
"After leaving with them, that girl became an Art Student overnight!"
"But... why are there none of those kinds of Art Students in my class?"
Tian Bufan said, "Don’t rush to think, listen to me finish."
"According to the Sports Students, there are also types of Art Students."
"Those students whose uniforms are normal but carry the colors yellow and green, they are the normal Art Students."
"Those with crazed looks, they are abnormal Art Students."
"And those with vacant expressions, they... are not our classmates."
Lin Yi’s pupils contracted slightly; he thought of many things: "Wait a minute, isn’t it too arbitrary to judge students by the color of their clothes?"
"No," Tian Bufan shook his head, "Color is a marker of identity or status, the Sports Students’ color is ’Blue’, the Art Students’ color is ’Green’."
"’Green’ represents abnormal?!" Lin Yi thought of the green Pocket Chef and the blue Pocket Chef.
"’Blue’ and ’Green’ represent two different directions of expression in the contamination," Tian Bufan said, "I heard that there were no colors blue and green inside the school district originally, but because of the presence of contamination, these two colors have appeared. I haven’t completely understood this part of the logic yet, so let’s not discuss it for now."
"Oh... okay. But according to what you said, all three types of abnormal people appeared in the Cafeteria, and they were all getting and eating food. I understand the first two types of Art Students, but the third type ’who are not our classmates,’ what’s with them?"
"I’m not sure about those, but in the words of the Sports Students, they are the most dangerous group."
