Rules-related weird stories: 4016

Lin Yi's brow furrowed slightly. The world inside the door was unexpectedly quiet, a stark contrast to when he left the classroom at 8:30 PM last night. It was as if it had been transformed into another world.

He couldn't help but look up again at the classroom's doorplate:

"Group B, Class 2."

"That's right, it is my classroom…" Lin Yi narrowed his eyes. "It seems something major happened last night, scaring them all quite a bit."

Such changes and reactions flashed through Lin Yi's mind in the short time it took Wei Liang to push open a crack in the classroom door.

Wei Liang didn't seem to notice much amiss and walked straight in, but he clearly froze for a moment after entering.

After confirming the doorplate was correct, Lin Yi followed closely behind.

As he entered, he immediately noticed the fine particles of dust floating in the air.

The way these particles floated gave the impression of a dusty, dim room where a skylight had suddenly been opened, and the cool breeze carrying sunlight rushed in, stirring up the stagnant dust.

Lin Yi quickly looked at the floor tiles near the classroom door and, sure enough, found a faint white trail of plaster being dragged across the tiles.

The drag mark had almost completely dissipated, and the remaining parts, when illuminated by sunlight, visibly broke into fragments, then crumbled into countless dust particles, scattering into the air until they completely vanished.

After Lin Yi entered, he and Wei Liang became the focus of the other students' attention, but he noticed that a… teacher was sitting on the platform in front of Wei Liang.

Not the homeroom teacher, but someone dressed almost identically to the homeroom teacher… another homeroom teacher.

This new homeroom teacher looked younger than the previous one, like a cheerful and approachable girl next door.

She wore a simple hairstyle, dressed in the same black silk OL uniform as the homeroom teacher, and sat on a stool in front of the podium.

Beside her was the attendance folder, and she rested her cheek on one hand while twirling a black签字笔 with the other.

The black签字笔 danced between her slender fingers, moving as nimbly as a swimming fish. When the sunlight streamed in, she slowly turned her head, and her beautiful eyes focused on Lin Yi and Wei Liang.

"You two, come over and sign in," she greeted them with a smile.

Wei Liang was clearly still stunned, his eyes filled with confusion, but upon hearing the new homeroom teacher's words, he subconsciously took a step forward.

Lin Yi held Wei Liang's shoulder and stepped in front of him, giving Wei Liang a look as if to say, "Wait a moment, don't rush."

Then he slowly approached the new homeroom teacher, his gaze sweeping over her like radar, and finally, with great effort, he found a white acrylic name tag near the slightly wrinkled collar of her snow-white neck. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the name tag, trying to make out the number on it.

To his surprise, he felt as if he had gained a special ability at that moment, allowing the name tag to float up slowly and clearly display the number before his eyes!

"Homeroom Teacher-B2-040."

Not 039… but otherwise, there was nothing wrong.

"Student, do you see it clearly? If you do, come and sign in," the new female teacher's gentle voice sounded in his ear.

He snapped back to reality and realized that the name tag hadn't floated up on its own, but the homeroom teacher had noticed him observing and puffed out her chest to reveal the name tag…

An awkward expression instantly appeared on his face. He walked up to the homeroom teacher and reached for the folder to sign in.

But the hand that had been propping up her cheek suddenly pressed down on the folder. "You've got the procedure wrong, student. Just state your name and student ID."

She had a gentle smile on her face, but Lin Yi could clearly feel a sense of pressure.

He had a strong premonition that if his hand touched the folder, the black签字笔 twirling between her slender fingers would pierce his throat like a sharp knife…

So he silently took a step back: "Lin Yi, student ID is X0230506098."

"Okay, Lin… Yi… student," the homeroom teacher quickly flipped through the folder, found Lin Yi's information, and marked a "√" with the black签字笔.

"And you, student?"

"Wei Liang, X0230506096."

"Okay."

The homeroom teacher also marked a "√" after Wei Liang's name, which was above Lin Yi's.

Lin Yi noticed that the person in between them had an "×" next to their name.

"If I remember correctly, that student's name seems to be… Bai Fangshuo?" Lin Yi muttered to himself. Bai Fangshuo's student ID was X0230506097.

"That's strange. Liangzi and I entered the office one after the other, so theoretically, we should be next to each other. When did Bai Fangshuo cut in line?" He couldn't help but wonder.

"Alright, students, go back to your seats," the homeroom teacher reminded them.

Wei Liang said "Oh" but couldn't help but look at the homeroom teacher's name tag with a puzzled expression.

Lin Yi also asked: "Teacher, may I ask, where did our previous homeroom teacher go? Emmm… I wonder if I'm even allowed to ask that question with my current identity?"

The homeroom teacher glanced at him, then smiled and said: "She's taking a break. I'll be the homeroom teacher for the next period. You don't need to worry about her. I've checked your time, this is your third day… or strictly speaking, the second day, right?"

"So, if nothing unexpected happens, I'll be the homeroom teacher for the foreseeable future."

She pointed to her name tag: "You can call me 'Homeroom Teacher 040'."

"Okay, Teacher."

…

Lin Yi and Wei Liang found seats away from the corridor window, closer to the rear desks and bookshelf area.

After sitting down, Lin Yi checked the time on his watch and the clock above the blackboard.

8:26.

They had actually entered the classroom at 8:20, but they had been delayed for some time after entering.

After sitting down, Wei Liang glanced at Homeroom Teacher 040 and couldn't help but say: "Lao Lin, this new Teacher Lin seems really nice. Although she doesn't have the pure and seductive mature woman vibe of the old homeroom teacher, this girl-next-door style seems to make my heart flutter even more!"

"…" Lin Yi was speechless for a moment. "Aren't you a white silk lolita enthusiast?"

"Don't be ridiculous! I may be a white silk lolita enthusiast, but it's illegal to actually go after lolitas!" Wei Liang seriously scoffed. "XPs are just for keeping in your heart; for a real relationship, you need a girl-next-door type wearing black silk stockings, especially one with teacher vibes."

"I suspect this is another one of your XPs," Lin Yi said. "Also, how do you know her last name is Lin?"

Wei Liang rolled his eyes: "Didn't you hear her say just now that her name is 'Lin Shiling'? Also, don't talk nonsense, okay? When it comes to XP, the White Silk Lolita Holy Church is my one and only true god!"

"Please! It's 040, not Lin Shiling!" Lin Yi covered his face with his hand, "The number on the chest badge, big brother!"

"Eh...? Okay then..." Wei Liang was stunned for a moment, then said shamelessly, "I don't care, from now on when I say Teacher Lin, you have to know it's her! In my mind, she is Lin Shiling!"

"Okay, I'm not going to talk anymore, I'm going to get some doujinshi!" Wei Liang said, then got up from his seat again and walked towards the H manga section on the bookshelf.

"Liangzi, what about the pure love you promised?" Lin Yi couldn't help but remind him.

"Pure what? Only what you eat is pure love. I'll go find some spiritual food in the books first. Do you want me to find some for you?"

"No thanks." Lin Yi refused, then sat in the back row and began to survey the entire classroom.

Lin Yi looked very slowly, his gaze passing over everyone in the classroom. Because the experience students were sitting very scattered, and the rows of seats in the classroom had a certain curvature, Lin Yi was able to take in the expressions of most of them.

The newest novels are first published at 69shuba!

What surprised him was that there were only 23 students in the lecture hall now, and there wasn't even a single non-human entity or sports student among these people. They were all experience students.

「Eh...? This number seems a bit off!」

Lin Yi was slightly stunned, then shook his head again, it didn't seem off either...

He started to calculate simply.

「Including me and Liangzi, there were a total of 96 people in the classroom before we left last night, no, 96 entities... Now there are only 23 people in the classroom?」

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and began to think, while recalling the appearances of those people last night in his mind, so as to correspond them one by one with the people currently in the classroom:

「96 entities... Subtracting me and Liangzi, that's 94 people, of which there are 18 sports students...」

「There are 38 heavily polluted people, including 22 'non-human entities' and 16 'weird art students'...」

「There are 38 experience students, including 13 students who came before me and 25 who came yesterday...」

「The sports students also left yesterday. They moved out collectively, and none of them have returned to the classroom, which should be normal.」

「As for the heavily polluted people, they should have left at 4:30, and they won't return to the classroom until the sun starts to set in the evening, so it's normal that they're not in the classroom...」

「As for the experience students... the 13 early arrivals left after 8 PM, and now 10 of them have returned here...」

「Of the 25 newcomers, it seems that some of them returned to the dormitory with us, but several of them went halfway back to the classroom. I can't speculate on their situation, but there are only 13 people in the classroom now, and the situation of the remaining 11 is temporarily unknown...」

「Emmm... Haven't they come to the classroom yet? Or... were they killed?」

However, after subtracting and subtracting, the final number seems to be around 20 people. If you add the remaining experience students, then the number will be a little more, but there are only 38 experience students in total, so it seems normal at first glance.

Of course, the premise is that the experience students can all survive...

In this process of simple thinking, Lin Yi was constantly vigilant against the dark aura in his heart that would surge like a tide at any time, but it seemed that because he was aware of the situation, this strange phenomenon that accompanied thinking never descended on him.

So he looked at the only 23 experience students in the classroom again.

Among these 23 experience students, 10 are dull-faced veterans, and the remaining 13 are newcomers who came yesterday.

On the faces of these newcomers, it is difficult to see the cheerful and active feeling of yesterday. A small number of people still have a look of shock and uncertainty on their faces, and the rest already have a look of hopelessness. They leaned on the chairs, or tilted their necks to look at the clock on the blackboard, or looked at the green belt outside the window, their expressions between absent-mindedness and dementia.

Lin Yi suddenly understood what was going on with the dull expressions of the veterans, and it turned out that some of the newcomers were already on the road of the veterans...

Suddenly, Lin Yi's eyes lit up.

「That is...?」

I saw not far away on a floor tile where a plaster-like drag mark had not completely dissipated, there was a digital camera that had fallen to the ground.

He remembered that the digital camera was previously held in the hands of a fashionable young man, but now the digital camera is here, but the owner is missing.

Near the digital camera, there was a large pool of plaster-like traces. Seeing that pool of traces, a picture instantly appeared in Lin Yi's mind...

In the darkened classroom, the owner of the digital camera did not crawl under the desk before the lights were turned off, but took the digital camera to film around, and then was killed by a non-human classmate.

After he was killed, blood flowed all over the ground, and finally turned into a large pool of plaster-like traces over there.

「In other words, there may be a recording in the digital camera about the situation in the classroom after the lights are turned off?」

Thinking of this, he quickly got up and walked towards the digital camera.

Perhaps the experience students in the classroom were already numb, so even if they noticed the digital camera, they didn't care much, and there was no behavior of picking it up and handing it over to the teacher.

It wasn't until Lin Yi walked to the digital camera and was about to bend down to pick it up that a terrified scream came from beside him: "No... don't touch it!"

Lin Yi followed the sound and looked over, and immediately found a haggard girl curled up in the chair, looking at him with a terrified look, her head constantly shaking, and her mouth kept chanting: "This digital camera is ominous, it killed Pan Jian..."

"If it wasn't for it, Pan Jian wouldn't have been attacked... he wouldn't have died..."

"I heard Pan Jian's scream... so terrifying... so scared..."

"I... I saw Pan Jian fall in front of me... his face was facing me... he died so miserably... he died so miserably..."

"No, no, no... don't pick it up! Don't pick it up!! It will kill you!"

「Kill me?」 Lin Yi glanced at her, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, 「That's just a blind perception of the truth from your point of view.」

But he didn't have time to say anything. It's impossible to explain this kind of thing. Saying too much will only collapse the girl's cognition.

So next, under the girl's strong fearful gaze, he silently picked up the digital camera.

Thanks to book friend "琳 skylark" for the reward!!
