Chapter 554: Chapter 250: What Have You Provoked

Lin Yi was taken aback and looked up.

Wei Liang was staring at him with an incredulous face, the book in his hand having slipped to the floor.

"Old Lin, you this..."

"Damn, listen to me explain!"

"I don’t want to hear it... don’t come over here!" Wei Liang was about to pick up the book and run, but seeing Lin Yi’s movement, he didn’t care about anything else and ran to the nearby bookshelf with the remaining books to put them back.

Lin Yi stood in place, looking at the "Super Duel!! Cheng Yaojin VS Ximen Qing" beside him, then back at the retreating figure of Wei Liang, and he smacked his lips speechlessly, thinking to himself that with this incident, his reputation had certainly gotten darker...

"Sigh..."

He sighed deeply, helplessly gathered the incomprehensible books beside him, and then went to pick up the books Wei Liang had been too afraid to retrieve.

But just as he bent down to pick up the books, he was captivated by the pages that had fallen open in the book.

Inside the pages were two female warriors fighting, with several very risqué close-up images of clothing being shredded in battle, but Lin Yi’s focus was on the other few panoramic battle scenes.

The background in the picture looked very much like the wilderness in the mountains, reminiscent of the Green Forest Belt at S City University...

And when he started paying attention to those wilderness mountains, he actually discovered some lines that seemed different from the comic’s own brushstrokes...

"This..."

Not caring about the rest, Lin Yi quickly set down the book at hand and then started to look closely at the lines in the mountain wilderness.

Mu Daxian once said that adult comics are used to transmit information, and Lin Yi believed that this might be where the information clues were.

The only problem was, how to extract the information from here?

He could sense some subtleties here, but... how to decrypt the coded information was the issue.

"Asking Liangzi is definitely not an option; he’s always using Crafty Tricks as a cover. Accidentally bumping into this might affect his ’play style’..."

"Hey! Come to think of it, is this the hint Liangzi gave me?"

The problem wasn’t in the content of books like "Absolute Battle!! Cheng Yaojin VS Ximen Qing," but instead... in the clues hidden within the illustrations?

Lin Yi’s eyes lighted up, feeling that he had finally found some direction.

So he sat down right there and began to carefully focus on the illustrations with scenery, but after looking for quite a while, he still helplessly put down the book in his hand.

No clue, damn it!

Lin Yi truly discovered that almost every illustration related to scenery had traces of artificially added lines, but these things were like a book from heaven, scattered here and there with no apparent connection or any discernable method of encrypting information.

Lin Yi sighed deeply, stood up while touching the bookshelf, and glanced through the gaps in the books into the classroom.

During the time he was reading, quite a few people had returned to the classroom, but there were still fewer than there had been yesterday morning.

He glanced at his watch.

The time was approaching 9 o’clock.

He noticed that Class Teacher-040 was also looking at the time, so he guessed that Class Teacher-040 might be planning on leaving.

Lin Yi squinted his eyes, he had intended to wait until there was no one else around before handing the note to Class Teacher-040, but if he couldn’t wait for "a time when no one would be around," he needed to create such an opportunity himself.

Like, for instance, the privacy of the Teacher’s Office.

"Wait and see," Lin Yi thought, as he observed through the gaps in the books.

Sure enough, at 8:55, Class Teacher-040 looked around the classroom, then closed the blue folder, clicked down the podium in her high heels, pushed open the door, and left the classroom.

"Good, the time has come," Lin Yi prepared to move.

But just then, he noticed that Song Rentou, who was sitting in a corner of the classroom, seemed to get some sort of signal when Class Teacher-040 closed the classroom door and also got up from his seat and walked out.

This coincidence gave Lin Yi an ominous premonition.

What is Song Rentou up to...

Lin Yi took a deep breath, quickly picked up the books he was about to return along with the few Wei Liang had dropped on the floor, then hesitated for a moment and put the potentially misleading "Super Duel!! Cheng Yaojin VS Ximen Qing" back on the shelf.

He took the stack of books back to his seat and patted Wei Liang on the shoulder, "Stop reading, come with me to the toilet."

Wei Liang shuddered, hugging himself protectively and looking at him in fright, "In broad daylight... what are you planning to do?"

"..." Lin Yi was puzzled, "???"

"Just come out of the classroom with me, aren’t we brothers?"

"Brother indeed... but let me state clearly, I’m not into that kind of ’fruity’ business!" Wei Liang’s disdain was evident, reluctantly yet unwillingly, he still put down his book and followed Lin Yi out of the classroom.

Opening the door and leaving the classroom, Lin Yi led Wei Liang to the corner of the corridor ahead, and with the great sunshine, he glanced from afar in the direction of the restroom, his instinct telling him that Song Rentou had not gone to the toilet.

"Hey, aren’t you going to the toilet?" Wei Liang called Lin Yi after walking a few steps.

"You’re serious?" Lin Yi was taken aback.

Wei Liang cocked his head: "???"

"Huh? If you’re not going to the toilet, why did you drag me out here?"

Lin Yi laughed awkwardly, "You go ahead, I just needed an excuse for cover. I saw that Song Rentou was following Teacher Lin after she left the classroom, and I’m a bit concerned."
