Chapter 313: Chapter 145: Can’t Find the Convenience Store_2

Lin Yi kept making eye signs at her as if to say in a new type of eyebrow language, "Don’t let it catch your attention! Ignore It! Ignore it!"

Li Huiyuan, although not very stable and easily influenced, was not foolish. Seeing this, she quickly gave a firm look, "Hmm, okay! I understand!"

"Good you understand, are you still eating?" Wei Liang pursed his lips and interrupted, motioning them to the front of the line, "Let’s eat first! We can talk about anything else after we’ve eaten!"

"Coming! Coming!" Lin Yi quickly replied, patting Li Huiyuan’s shoulder to signal her to maintain her mental state and not to be disturbed by the green-aproned chef.

Then, he glanced over at the food service window only to find that the green-aproned chef with tomatoes was not present this time.

He turned his head and shockingly found several green-aproned chefs at the other service windows, just not at their number 1 service window.

"Could it be that only one green-aproned chef appears at a food service window at a time?" Lin Yi speculated.

He didn’t bother with the green-aproned chef matters anymore, knowing from experience that they wouldn’t attack unless they left the cafeteria.

Apart from that, as long as they remained alert and careful, only minor troubles remained.

After Wei Liang swiped his card, Lin Yi followed and ordered his meal, the whole process going smoothly. It wasn’t until he had swiped his card and was ready to leave with his tray that he realized the humanoid spider seemed to have left the ceiling and was ... suddenly crouching at his feet.

The green-aproned chef contorted its limbs, looking like a creepily drawn dog, but its focus was not on Lin Yi but on Li Huiyuan.

"Order food, Li Huiyuan... why aren’t you ordering?"

The head of the green-aproned chef in the form of a humanoid spider was twisted 180 degrees by Wei Liang using a plastic curtain, its twisted features continuously contorting as it spoke enticing words.

"Your student ID card... it’s here, it’s here..."

It opened its mouth, and the throat undulated like swallowing a sword, showing half of a card that could very well be Li Huiyuan’s student ID card.

A strange glint flashed in Li Huiyuan’s eyes, but Lin Yi, who had just picked up his tray, quickly grabbed a box of yogurt and handed it to her, calling her attention with his words, "Want some yogurt? Just a little to keep you going, we still need to visit the convenience store later!"

He emphasized the words "convenience store," frantically hinting for her not to be deceived.

Even if that was really Li Huiyuan’s student ID card, if it were retrievable by this method, the class teacher would not fail to mention it.

In the student cafeteria, one must not trust anyone other than the students and should as much as possible ignore them because you never know how they might try to catch your attention.

Regaining the lost student ID card was more likely a trap.

Li Huiyuan shivered, quickly realizing the hidden danger.

Her safe state was extremely unstable, and perhaps she was currently not attackable by the green-aproned chefs for some reasons, but no one could say for sure when this unstable security state would completely disappear, possibly... at the moment she responded to the green-aproned chef.

"Thank you." Li Huiyuan took the box of yogurt and followed Lin Yi away from the service window.

The green-aproned chef still tried to follow them, but the lights over the dining area of the cafeteria were too bright. It desperately wanted to approach but was ultimately deterred by the light, only able to curl up in some shadowy areas, watching Lin Yi and his group like a venomous snake.

As Lin Yi idly wandered among the dining tables, he occasionally took the opportunity to check the position of the green-aproned chef, then furrowed his brows and muttered, "This won’t do... that thing keeps watching us!"

"Or Liangzi, you go first... damn, where is Liangzi?"

"He... sat down when he passed that empty spot just now..." Li Huiyuan weakly pointed at a dining table not far away.

Lin Yi: "..."

"Forget it, let’s not bother with him."

Wei Liang had his own unique way of fighting, which was unsuitable for others but extraordinarily effective for himself, so Lin Yi rarely had to worry about him.

"So, what do we do...?"

"It’s still early, let’s walk around in the Student Cafeteria first and see if we can find the convenience store, or maybe... a sports student."

"Um... okay."

...

16:34, first floor of the Student Cafeteria.

After searching for almost twenty minutes around the Student Cafeteria, Lin Yi came full circle back to the starting point.

"Didn’t find it?" Wei Liang had finished eating and glanced up at them.

"Um... We didn’t even find Xu Shunkang and the others." Lin Yi sighed despondently, placing the now cold food on the table, "You didn’t encounter anything weird, did you? Uh, I mean, you finished eating so smoothly?"

Wei Liang said scornfully, "With you drawing the fire, what danger could I possibly face? Even if there were any, it’d be darkness under the lamp."

"Darkness under the lamp...?" Lin Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows, wondering if Wei Liang had foreseen something and was hinting at him.

Seeing Lin Yi’s reaction, Wei Liang’s mouth twisted, "Don’t f*cking overinterpret things, man; even if I have some crafty tricks up my sleeve, it wouldn’t be that outrageous. Just chill and eat first; maybe the convenience store will just pop up after we eat?"

Saying this, Wei Liang picked up his tray and stood up.

"You’re leaving?" Lin Yi asked in surprise, and Li Huiyuan also looked puzzled.

Wei Liang pointed outside the Student Cafeteria and then at his right eyelid, "It’s getting dark early today, I don’t think the weather will be good, and... my right eyelid has been twitching, giving me a bad feeling; anyway, I’m heading back to the classroom first, hurry up."

"If you really can’t find it, just go back to the classroom and look for the class teacher; maybe there’s another way. The student code mentioned something about not staying overnight, maybe there’s still hope."

Wei Liang finished speaking and walked away with his tray. Just as he was putting his tray away, a series of riots broke out at window number 10, and immediately afterward, a chef in a green apron burst out and started chasing Wei Liang.

Shivering, Wei Liang took off running, managing to escape the Cafeteria before the green aproned chef could catch him.

Watching Wei Liang’s retreating figure, Lin Yi thought to himself, "Liangzi really got targeted by the green aproned chef too... But he seemed fine on his first day; could it be because he eavesdropped on our conversation too much, so he also got ’dragged in’?"

But Lin Yi didn’t think that was likely the issue with Wei Liang.

Because the night Wei Liang wasn’t targeted yet, his behavior was even more abnormal than Lin Yi’s when they were heading back to the dormitory.

"Come to think of it, it’s really hard to tell whether the green hat chef was chasing me... or both Liangzi and I were being chased."

He remembered hearing a strange noise behind him once, and he vaguely saw a green aproned chef emerging from window number 10, then he just started running, not knowing whether another one came out behind him chasing both him and Wei Liang.

Seeing Lin Yi squinting and focusing on his food, Li Huiyuan couldn’t help but tighten her grip on the yogurt she held, then she stuck in her straw and started sipping, her brow furrowed, deep in thought.

Just then, a tray was placed opposite Lin Yi and Li Huiyuan.

Lin Yi’s eyebrows knitted slightly, and as he looked up, he spotted a bloody heart on the plate, half-dried blood smeared all over it, and the pungent smell of blood slowly wafting out, making him feel nauseous.

"Quit messing around, that’s a tomato."

Lin Yi muttered to himself, his gaze wandering from his own meal around the area, and when it returned to the opposite plate, the bloody heart was gone, replaced by a glossy, dewy tomato.
