Chapter 245: Chapter 115: 12 People Missing_2

"Wait a minute... ’pity their misfortune, anger at their lack of resistance’? Hmm... That night when Xie Huayang lectured me, he probably felt the same way..." His mouth twitched as he, someone who had been through the experience, then considered from the perspective of a Sports Student, looking at the headstrong Experience Student who wouldn’t take advice. Indeed, there was a fury wishing he could’ve smacked the kid and then left him to his own devices...

If he were a Sports Student, watching his own performance on the first night, he too might have called himself an idiot.

But then again, that night everyone had treated him like just another ordinary Experience Student and so they’d offered some not-incorrect advice for such a student, which was completely forgivable.

"Forget it... What’s done is done, and I’ve found the right way to handle things. There’s no need to dwell on it anymore."

Lin Yi shook his head and took a last look at the remaining people in the classroom, noting down the final person in his memory.

The 26th Experience Student in the classroom was a girl who looked somewhat familiar, but no matter what, Lin Yi couldn’t match her face with any of the new girls in his memory...

This girl wore a dark blue blazer with a pleated skirt—a two-dimensional academy-style uniform—with a white shirt underneath, even tied with a golden bow at the chest.

Even though Lin Yi couldn’t match her with someone from his memory until the end, he was still somewhat surprised by her presence.

Because yesterday, several of the clever-looking male Newborns had fallen victim, yet this girl had managed to spend the night safely in the Dormitory building.

And judging by her Spirit, although it wasn’t particularly good, it wasn’t bad either.

The expressions on the faces of the other remaining Experience Students who had survived a night in the classroom though were stiff as if smeared with poop, or to put it in more traditional terms, "they had turned into complete idiots overnight."

The girl who was with Pan Jian kept distance from everyone, him most of all, because he was the one carrying the "ominous digital camera" with him, as well as Pan Jian’s small crossbody bag.

Lin Yi and Wei Liang were not the first to leave the classroom for the Cafeteria; some of the more reticent Experience Students and veterans were very strict about Time management, leaving the classroom right at 10:10, allowing 30 minutes to make their way there.

The nervous girl was scared, but when the Experience Students left the classroom to go eat, she followed them hesitantly and uneasily to the Cafeteria.

On the other hand, the somewhat familiar girl sat in the classroom as if waiting for the right moment.

But Lin Yi soon discovered what good time she was waiting for.

As they stood up, the girl stood up as well.

"Damn," Lin Yi couldn’t help muttering to himself, realizing the girl was planning to tag along with them.

"Hello, classmate... Are you going to the Cafeteria now to eat?" the girl asked tentatively.

Lin Yi glanced at his watch.

10:16.

There was no time to waste anymore; whatever decision had to be made fast.

"We are heading to the Cafeteria, but for your safety, I don’t recommend you follow us," Lin Yi said earnestly.

Wei Liang nodded solemnly, adding seriously, "Indeed, Lin and I are known as ’dead card pilots.’ If you’re with us, unless you can transform into Ultraman Tiga, you won’t even know how you died."

Wei Liang’s words clearly frightened the girl; her face turned pale in an instant.

Seeing his cunning plan succeeded, Wei Liang quickly led Lin Yi out of the classroom.

The girl was momentarily stunned, then quickly realized what happened, stomped her foot in frustration, and hurried after them.

...

"Classmate, classmate... I know I might be a drag, but could you please just let me tag along with you guys?"

On the cobblestone path leading to the cafeteria, the girl caught up to Lin Yi and Wei Liang, panting as she spoke.

Lin Yi kept walking, "Classmate, what I said just now was the truth."

The girl said, "I... I was telling the truth, too. Regardless of anything else, can you just let me stay by your side... I don’t want to trouble you, but can you save me a little if I run into danger?"

Desperation was written all over the girl’s face, as if she had gone through quite an ordeal the previous evening.

Wei Liang did not speak but looked to Lin Yi as if leaving the decision to him.

Lin Yi glared at him: "Why are you looking at me?"

Wei Liang spread his hands and said, "You chatted with Young Master Tian for so long, you understand the situation better, you make the call, I’m just here to hang up and listen to instructions."

"..." Lin Yi pressed a hand to his forehead, "You’re putting me in a tough spot."

"So...?" Wei Liang probed.

"So you take care of the big baby!" Lin Yi slipped away and quickly headed toward the cafeteria, "I don’t want trouble, nor do I want to harm anyone. Liangzi is a second playthrough expert, just figure it out yourself!"

"Damn it, Old Lin, that’s so not cool! I can manage navigating on my own, but this is a bit too much!" Wei Liang also took off, completely ignoring the bewildered girl’s feelings.

Seeing this, the girl, flustered and exasperated, followed them.

Honestly, she didn’t want to keep begging others to take her along after being rejected so many times.

She hated herself for acting like this, but the reality was... when she returned to the classroom and observed for a while, she reluctantly realized that the only damn people in the entire class who seemed normal were Lin Yi and Wei Liang!

The rest, whether they were returning students or the newborns who had come with her yesterday, all seemed to have the word "abnormal" written across their faces after one night.

Indeed, she was one of the newcomers who arrived yesterday.

Maybe it was because she wore a very cute, secondary-element pink cosplay outfit that attracted the attention of many fellow newcomers; she initially thought this was going to be a very comfortable experience trip.

Until she spent her first unforgettable night at S City University.

She was one of the obedient Experience Students who followed the Sports Student’s advice and left the Teaching Building for the Dormitory building with the upperclassmen and even insisted on returning to the dorm halfway through the walk, unlike some newborns who turned back to the Teaching Building when they saw the mist rising on the way.

Throughout the journey, although she felt very uncomfortable and even the environment seemed strange, making her heart uneasy, everything seemed normal overall.

Afterwards, in the corridor of the dormitory building, she heard the calls from other dormitories, which felt both alien and familiar to her.

Alien because she had never heard such a timbre and pitch in a deep call.

Familiar because when she heard that sound, she actually wanted to go to the strange dormitory, as if the call reached deep into her soul, like a friendly neighbor inviting her for a "come sit down" over tea and dinner...

But just when she was about to approach the dorm, she suddenly became acutely aware that all this was an illusion. It was her first time at S City University, and there could be no familiar people, so ultimately she resisted the urge to go and stayed in the dormitory she had initially reserved.

After entering the dormitory, she heard terrified and pitiful screams intermittently echoing in the dormitory building corridor.

Even when she showered, she felt a strong, ominous premonition as if someone was watching her.

Also, she was the only one in her dormitory, but she felt... that she wasn’t the only one in the building, especially when she was half-asleep in the middle of the night, not knowing if she was asleep or just groggy...
