Chapter 89: Chapter 41 "Personal Verification

Lin Yi was as stiff as a log, but a kind of uncontrollable ecstasy quickly showed on his face.

He turned over and lay on the ground, panting heavily.

He wanted to repeatedly cleanse his internal organs with the earthy fragrance of the soil and the aroma of plants and flowers, to completely purify the decay, death, and disgusting breath the sea breeze had brought!

"Haha...hahaha...cough cough cough..."

Feeling the long-lost breath of life, he felt alive again and couldn’t help but burst out laughing, but he choked on his saliva because he laughed too wildly.

Suddenly!

His eyes sharpened, the earlier sense of crisis left him with a hint of alertness to the abnormal environment, and he keenly noticed that the air he breathed in contained not only the scents of dirt and plants but also a salty, damp smell!

「Is...is that the sea breeze?!」

His muscles tensed up in an instant, following the sensation to pinpoint its source.

And then...he pinpointed a pair of feet that were bizarrely clad in socks worn outside, and yet these feet seemed to be conveying a certain restrained feeling.

「Uh...」 Lin Yi was startled, 「Aren’t these Wei Liang’s feet?」

His gaze moved, meeting the very odd-looking Wei Liang’s eye.

The scene became very awkward for a moment...

"Old Lin, you motherf..." Wei Liang looked down at Lin Yi, hesitantly saying, "When did I ever realize you had this hobby of sneaking peeks at other people’s feet?"

He...suddenly realized why Lin Yi was carrying so many socks...

XP!

「Old Lin, you bastard, are pure XP with issues!」

「Damn it! How come I only discovered Old Lin’s sexual orientation now... his mother’s seems a bit off?!」

His buttocks instinctively clenched, and his entire being seemed to become uncomfortable.

"Old Lin, if you don’t get up now, I can’t stop this foot!" Wei Liang lifted his foot, ready to stomp with an earth-shaking momentum.

In a somewhat anxious atmosphere, Lin Yi silently got up from the ground and rubbed his nose.

"The thing is...it’s not what you think."

"I didn’t even say anything!"

"You’ve written it all over your face..."

"Alright!" Wei Liang spread his hands out, disdainfully saying, "That weird, lovestruck-like laughter of yours just now, don’t think I didn’t hear it!"

"You’re not serious, are you? After all this time as classmates, don’t you know I like black tights and long legs?" Lin Yi said, exasperated.

Wei Liang sighed deeply: "Even if we put gender aside, if I crossdressed, I’d still have black tights and long legs!"

"Oh?!" Lin Yi’s eyes lit up.

"Dammit!" Wei Liang suddenly realized what he had said, "Scram! Scram, you! This feet obsession is going to be the death of you!"

"Bullshit! I’m normal!" Lin Yi retorted angrily.

In the gradually brewing romantic atmosphere, Lin Yi felt that anything he said would only make the situation worse.

"Damn it, we have class!" Lin Yi muttered through gritted teeth, heading towards the gymnasium.

"Damn!" Wei Liang followed, saying, "Hurry up, hurry up, it’s getting late."

「Right, time!」

Lin Yi froze, realizing he had spent too much time on that nonexistent road, not knowing how much time had been wasted. Was he going to be late for gym class?

He quickly looked down at his watch.

14:20.

"Huh? It’s only 14:20?!"

He was shocked.

He had wandered on that nonexistent road for at least a dozen minutes, but...his watch was only showing 14:20?

Had only 2 minutes passed since he last checked his watch?

「How could this be? This is impossible!」

Time seemed to have stopped, or...had it passed at an extremely slow pace?

Or was it...something that had affected his "perception" of time?

His expression grew serious, a strange atmosphere slowly enveloping him, and goosebumps involuntarily rose on his skin, giving him an unexpected shiver.

"Liangzi." he suddenly said.

"If you’ve got a fart, let it rip, or rather, speak up!" Wei Liang said warily.

"I’m talking serious business here!" Lin Yi said sternly, "You were walking in front of me earlier, do you still remember what happened...cough cough, before I got down?"

"You know I was in front of you! With that situation, how would I know what the hell you were doing? Maybe you wanted to spy on me with your butt?" Wei Liang said with contempt.

Lin Yi appeared threatening.

Wei Liang quickly said, "But..."

"But what?"

"But...I think I vaguely heard you call my name from behind, and then I turned around." Wei Liang said, "When I turned around, I saw you damn coming over to touch my foot!"

"Just...a glance backward?" Lin Yi suddenly paused, thoughtful, and then, thinking of something, he quickly said, "Ah, wait a minute, you’re farting, where did I touch your foot?"

"Didn’t touch, but it was almost the same!" Wei Liang chuckled.

"No way! Let me reiterate one more time!" Lin Yi made a hand-chopping motion as if he was Denzel Washington hitting a table.gif. "I damn well don’t like hairy legs!"

...

May 7, 2023, 14:23.

On the only road to the gymnasium, Lin Yi and Wei Liang walked along, cursing and swearing.

There were also many of their classmates heading to the gymnasium around them.

Lin Yi looked at these fellow students.

They all seemed very normal, without any dangerous aura about them, but their faces were stern and silent, evidently somewhat aware of some anomalies in the campus.

Lin Yi retracted his gaze and continued walking forward.

After a few steps, he suddenly sensed something was off.

He looked at his classmates nearby.

Still, nothing seemed amiss.

「It feels like something’s not quite right, but I can’t put my finger on what...」

He pulled back his gaze, a hint of confusion showing in his eyes.
