Chapter 673: Chapter 308 Conversion Formula

"Two unrelated scenes!"

Lin Yi was as if struck by thunder, and his mind buzzed instantly.

In his mind, he visualized the internal structure of the dormitory, then he layered the revolving part over the original, instantly obtaining two separate scenes.

Cafeteria, napkins, layer penetration...

Tian Bufan’s deduction about the cafeteria was also recalled in his mind and then applied like a formula to the dormitory!

"The dormitory is also made up of multiple layers!"

"After going to sleep, the layer you are in changes!"

"But while the cafeteria’s layering has something to do with the plastic curtain strips, what divides the layers in the dormitory?"

"No, no... the same cafeteria, the chef in the green apron can penetrate..."

"Shadows!"

"It’s related to ’light’!"

"After midnight in the dormitory, turning off the lights will enter another layer. This layer, by nature, is a ’safe layer’ isolated from the dangerous environment of the dormitory, just like the circle Sun Wukong drew!"

"And the penetration of those Nocturnal species, just like the chef in the green apron offering tomatoes, belongs to a layer penetration. Indeed, sleeping in the dormitory, or even just pretending to sleep is fine because this underlying logic... still is ’do not interact with anything’!"

"It’s still about ’ignoring’!"

Lin Yi hadn’t expected that ’ignoring’ could still be surging in value.

Thinking so, the school’s "one-size-fits-all" rule, placed here, shows a kind of clumsy cleverness.

"But then... which layer is the Dormitory Supervisor in?"

"Is it in the Nocturnal species’ layer, or does it have its own layer too?"

"And since we’re talking about layers... then we must mention the ’door’ attribute. Although the bathroom is small, strictly speaking, it also has a ’door’ attribute within the dormitory, so there’s probably another layer there too?"

Lin Yi felt his scalp itching, feeling as though his brain was growing...

But similarly, he also couldn’t help but feel excited. Originally, he thought that this footage would provide little clues, but unexpectedly, reminded by Li Huiyuan, he has unearthed a critical "hidden clue"!

With that thought, he couldn’t help but gaze intensely at Li Huiyuan, thinking to himself that Huihuizi was truly a little lucky charm, casually awakening him from a dream with a single remark!

Marvelous indeed!

But at that moment, Li Huiyuan no longer paid him attention...

After she finished speaking, Lin Yi was ecstatic but showed no expression, so she weakly busied herself with her things, fiddling with a small notebook that was unknown to him.

Lin Yi silently withdrew his intense gaze and continued to watch the video.

The subsequent content of the video seemed "plain and unexceptional", eventually freezing at ’00:42:39/7/8/X023’.

While watching the video, he also thought of another matter - the case of ’Dormitory Supervisor-28-X0230503021’.

That Dormitory Supervisor, the blonde seen by Maozi in the dormitory building corridor in the early morning of May 7th, who was trembling with an old kerosene lamp, seemed fearful of something.

That supervisor had led Maozi to the Art Office before leaving, and Lin Yi thought it unlikely that their paths would cross again.

He never would have imagined that the Sneering Angel that had followed him nearly all day, lurking in the shadows incessantly, turned out to be this Dormitory Supervisor.

"Isn’t this too coincidental!"

Lin Yi couldn’t help but exclaim, but this thought made him feel uneasy.

Can it really be such a coincidence?

All coincidences are necessary.

"Could this be inevitable?"

"Have I missed some clues that could connect the dots...?"

He set the digital camera aside, took out a notepad, and released Li Huiyuan’s hand to write:

"Dormitory Supervisor..."

"Art Building..."

"Maozi..."

"Me..."

After writing, he circled these words and drew lines back and forth, trying to find connections between them...

"Right! Another point!"

He then wrote down two key terms:

"Hourglass..."

"Kerosene lamp..."

"I get it!" he exclaimed as a lightbulb went off.

"Among all the Sneering Angels I know of, the only ones holding hourglasses, there are only two!"

"One is the one that followed me... while the other, appeared on the night of May 7th at the corner of the staircase in the Teaching Building."

"Indeed... it isn’t one of the Sneering Angels who ambushed Maozi in the elevator. The way it appeared was somewhat different."

"These two Sneering Angels... must be the same one."

"It initially targeted Maozi, but Maozi escaped back to the Art layer, so it followed the ashes to find me...?"

"No... not that it found me, but... I found it?"

Lin Yi had envisioned the Teaching Building on that rainy night, then somehow formed a connection with this Sneering Angel on some level, and from then on, this Sneering Angel stuck to him like a persistent ghost.

If that’s the case, leaving aside Maozi’s issues, does it mean he essentially accidentally sabotaged himself?

He again felt a tingling in his brain, what on earth was going on?
