Chapter 181: Chapter 84: Pure White Sculpture (1000 extra words for Meow!)

"So," Bufan spoke up, "do you still want to talk about this topic?"

"I want to talk, but... I don’t want to discuss some vague concept that has no relevance to me, just like someone suddenly handing me a ’Subduing Dragon Palm’ and then telling me the world has True Qi, and after cultivating it you can perform ’Light-body Skill’ or ’Strike Cattle across Mountains’..."

"I need to adapt to so many things, I just want to catch my breath..."

He said this with some difficulty.

But he suddenly paused.

Because he had inadvertently mentioned the word "adapt" himself.

"’Adapt’? Are these concepts also something you can ’adapt’ to?"

"But I... seem to not remember anything?"

Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat. He recalled something Bufan had mentioned earlier, albeit unintentionally— "He came here just to earn Thirty thousand yuan for Grandma’s medical bills."

But...

No matter how much he thought, he could not find any trace related to "Grandma" in his memories.

It was as if Grandma did not exist in his world at all.

Lin Yi’s heart suddenly felt ice cold, and he thought of two terrifying possibilities.

Either someone had used some hypnosis-like technique to make him forget Grandma.

Or... he really didn’t have a Grandma.

But if so, why had he been so convinced from the start that he was here to "earn money for medical bills"?

That motive was too feeble, so feeble that... it seemed like someone had overwritten his motive!

If it was overwritten, then for what purpose?

To make his entry into campus seem more plausible?

He thought about what the Boss had said— "It’s hard to imagine you could make it here alive."

He thought about what the homeroom teacher had said— "With your instincts, you could never pass the screening."

Yes, he shouldn’t have been able to get in, but someone had rationalized his motive.

Not only had they rationalized his motive, they had... paved every path for him!

"Who is it?"

He felt a chill all over, as if he was foreseeing a shocking conspiracy, and he, was someone pushed into an endless abyss by this plot.

"Could it be... someone really wants me dead? To use my life to probe the depths of this bottomless school district?!"

"What virtues and abilities do I have?!"

Lin Yi clenched his teeth, a thought surfacing in his mind— Damn it, the prize money of Thirty thousand yuan... has definitely been reduced.

"What are you thinking about? Why does it feel like the entire bed is shaking?" Bufan’s voice came, interrupting his thoughts, "We still have seventeen minutes, anything else you want to say?"

"Yes!" Lin Yi said in a low tone, feeling that Bufan definitely knew something.

He knew the most about everything in their dorm!

If this school really followed the ’Game Theory,’ then Bufan must have viewed some expansion packs in advance or even gotten some firsthand information from pioneering teams, almost as if he had gotten a portion of the strategy guide beforehand!

So Bufan told him he had some secrets, but didn’t want him to overthink, only saying that he would know when the time was right.

"So... do I really have to experience the difficulty of ’pioneering’ first?!"

"Damn it! Why should it be me? Just because Young Master Tian is smarter than me?"

"He’s only a teeny bit smarter than me!"

"Is there anything else to talk about in the Gymnasium?" Bufan asked.

Lin Yi thought for a moment, then said, "I haven’t even seen the gym teacher. As for the Boss..."

"Boss’s foot, don’t mention it so many times to me. Every time you mention the Boss around me, you’ve brought up her foot at least ten times. If you like it that much, next time go hold it and lick it," Bufan interrupted.

Lin Yi: "..."

"Then... I guess that’s about it for the Gymnasium."

"What about the Dormitory building?"

"Not much," Bufan shook his head.

"So... you actually don’t want to talk anymore?" Lin Yi asked.

"We could still briefly discuss the various ’identities’ within the campus, but we’ve actually already discussed that before, and its priority is not that high compared to more pressing issues."

"’Pressing issues’? You mean... sleep?" Lin Yi was slightly startled, looking down at his watch.

23:43.

"Only 17 minutes left until lights out."

"You can’t possibly fall asleep the second the lights go out, right?" Bufan said, adjusting his sleeping position, ready to enjoy a good night’s sleep, "Give yourself some leeway, sleep now."

"We’ll talk more tomorrow, and maybe we’ll discover even more."

"Okay," Lin Yi responded.

"Oh right..." Bufan seemed to have thought of something, suddenly got out of bed, entered the bathroom, and soon the sound of flushing water was heard.

After washing his hands, he said, "Anyone else needs the toilet, don’t get up in the middle of the night needing to pee."

"Young Master Tian, you’re a bit late, they probably all asleep already..." Lin Yi was about to say this when suddenly—

"I’ll go first."

A voice rang out, and Wei Liang quickly got out of bed and casually entered the bathroom, leaving Lin Yi gaping in astonishment.

"Isn’t it... you damn weren’t asleep? You’ve been listening to me and Young Master Tian discuss things for over an hour?"

"What about ’only knowing what you are allowed to know’?"

"Where’s that gone?"

"Liangzi?" he spoke up.

"Hmm?" Wei Liang paused as he opened the bathroom door, then chuckled, "Don’t worry, I only listened to the parts I could listen to."

"..." Lin Yi was speechlessly bewildered, "Please, how could you possibly know what you can listen to?"

Wei Liang calmly said, "Just listen first, then set aside what you shouldn’t listen to. Don’t worry, don’t worry, you know me, my main trick in life is all sorts of crafty tricks, all good, all good!"
