Rules-related weird stories: 4016

“This…”

Just as Tian Hengyu was feeling troubled, Yi Hang suddenly pointed at the waterproof curtain and said, “Look closely, there seems to be a message here!”

“Oh?!”

Half a minute later, after reading the message, everyone fell silent.

“Old Yan… sacrificed himself.”

“A one-for-one exchange… I would have done the same.” Xu Shunkang said in a low voice.

“Let’s put this aside for now and report it to the boss together later.”

“Okay.”

“Agreed.”

A moment later.

The group still couldn't find the origin of the Pseudo-man Li Kai, and the atmosphere gradually became anxious.

“How about… one of us goes to tell the boss the situation, and the rest stay here on standby?” Yi Hang suggested.

“That could work, it would be the most efficient, but the downside is that we'll get a scolding from the boss.”

“Looks like… one of us will have to make a small sacrifice.”

“Yi Hang (Tian Hengyu), (Old Xu), you go!” The three spoke in unison, each pointing to a different person.

The air suddenly fell silent.

“That Lin Yi is in the same class as you, so you should go, Old Xu.” Tian Hengyu glanced at Xu Shunkang.

“You're really something, calling me Xu Shunkang when everything is fine, and Old Xu when there's trouble!” Xu Shunkang gritted his teeth, “But everything has a beginning and an end, and things need to be closed-loop, so you should go report it yourself.”

Yi Hang pondered briefly: “Old Xu is right!”

“Damn it!” Tian Hengyu cursed as he left the bathing area, “There's a traitor among us, but I won't say who it is!”

Yi Hang kept his eyes down, and after Tian Hengyu left, he looked around again.

…

3:00 PM, first floor of the gymnasium, half of the traditional physical education class time had already passed.

On the way to the swimming pool, Lin Yi was thinking about telling the boss about Shan Nan and Song Ren Tou, but the boss asked him about what happened in the bathing area, so he briefly explained the situation.

“…In the end, I blew up its heart, and then it self-destructed. I vaguely fell to the ground, and when I regained consciousness, my body had recovered almost completely, so I quickly came out.”

The more the boss listened, the more he couldn't help but rub his forehead, as if a huge drop of sweat was hanging on his head, thinking that this guy really took a path to its end.

But what was even more outrageous was that after Lin Yi had taken the path to its end, he smashed a hole in the wall and forcibly walked through it.

Li Huiyuan was dumbfounded: “You took a self-destruction and still survived? Gosh, you wouldn't happen to be a werewolf, would you?!”

“Please, there are no werewolves, okay!” Lin Yi said speechlessly.

“That's right, don't mislead Lin Yi.” The boss glanced at her, and then added, “That thing isn't in the Huaxia region.”

“Boss, aren't you joking?” Lin Yi said with a wry smile, “Why don't you ask me something serious? I'm not used to you guys being like this…”

“What's not to get used to?” Li Huiyuan nudged Lin Yi, suddenly thought of something, and quickly said, “Oh right, I almost forgot, you haven't studied 《Mysterious Genealogy》!”

“What kind of serious school teaches that stuff?” Lin Yi spoke like a prickly hedgehog in a manga.

Li Huiyuan weakly sought help from the omnipotent boss.

The boss coughed lightly: “I have studied it.”

Lin Yi: “…”

“No… really?”

The boss looked at him suspiciously, and then said: “You haven't studied 《Mysterious Genealogy》?”

“I'm not that 'major'!” Lin Yi quickly said.

“Then what about 《Dream Boundary Studies》?”

“Uh…”

“《Star Revelation》?”

“Hiss…”

“《Secret Rune Totem》?”

“This…”

Seeing Lin Yi stammering, some fluctuations finally appeared on the boss's usually calm face: “Then… what is your major?”

Lin Yi's voice was as soft as a mosquito: “《Architectural Design》…”

The boss was stunned for a moment, then thoughtful: “It really is a very unpopular and… retro major.”

“However, architectural talents rarely participate in the actual deployment in the later stages, so you actually ran in?”

“Uh… Boss, are you misunderstanding something…” Lin Yi scratched his head like a dark monkey, he felt that the boss had misunderstood him as being in the kind of major that builds the S City University campus, “My architectural design is just the ordinary kind… urban architecture… design or something…”

“Now that the environment is like this, is there still a need for… design?” The boss was a little puzzled.

“Employment is indeed a big problem…” Lin Yi said weakly.

For some reason, he always felt that he and the boss were not on the same channel.

“Why don't we talk about werewolves and vampires…?” Lin Yi felt that his 《Architectural Design》 was simply too low compared to the “majors” that the boss casually mentioned!

Just that 《Secret Rune Totem》 sounded very high-end, not to mention that 《Star Revelation》…

The boss was speechless for a while, then turned around and walked forward silently.

This time it was Lin Yi's turn to silently approach Li Huiyuan.

He whispered: “Those majors the boss mentioned… are they real?”

“Are you kidding me, you're questioning the boss?” Li Huiyuan couldn't help but lower her voice.

“Are they real?”

“They're real.”

“Damn!”

Li Huiyuan curled her lips: “But each major is studied in a different region…”

“I'm not very concerned about that, what do those majors… teach?” When Lin Yi asked this question, the old sign in the art building, one of which had a red X on it… 「Stargazing Platform」, appeared in his mind out of nowhere.

「Could it be… everything is real?」

Just like the loser Lu knocked on the door of Kassel College, and then his life, which should have been an ordinary loser's life, was changed to experiencing a series of supernatural loser's lives, do those mysteries that exist in the shadows of history really exist in the world?

Behind S City University is such an organization, one or even several organizations working together?

The S City University Experience Program, in this light, is really the organization screening those who can be activated… “Hybrids”?

Li Huiyuan said, "《Chronicles of Revelation》 is part of astrology. It’s a discipline that mainly explores the unknown and mysterious connections between celestial phenomena and our lives... I've heard that ancient Europe had astrology, and ancient China had practices like observing the stars and assessing luck. It's basically that kind of thing..."

"Then, does 《Mystic Totem Studies》, as the name suggests, study totems?" Lin Yi asked.

Li Huiyuan nodded: "'Totem' is a very broad concept, from the earliest written symbols to later simple drawings. It may seem like just a cultural symbol, but it's actually a special kind of 'language'. Symbols are just a way to carry this language... It's so hard to learn."

"You have to study it too?"

"The teacher has mentioned some 'introduction' stuff, but the professional parts can only be learned at schools in the corresponding regions..."

"Then you've mastered a little bit of everything?" Lin Yi suddenly felt a sense of awe towards Li Huiyuan.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu吧!

No other reason, just because standing in front of him was a scholarly genius who had dabbled in various disciplines such as astrology and mystic studies!

Li Huiyuan stuck out her pink tongue: "No... I didn't study it..."

"Huh?"

"I was spacing out, sleeping, and playing on my phone in class..."

"Damn it!" Lin Yi was speechless. Sure enough, whether the world is normal or not, it won't change the current state of contemporary college students!

Hearing this, the value of Li Huiyuan's 《Mysterious Genealogy》 in Lin Yi's mind seemed to waver a bit...

Could it be another filler major to slack off?

That's right...

Could she really go catch a werewolf?

Someone with a solid foundation would have their student ID snatched by a green-aproned chef, and then immediately slap them upside the head, right?

"What are you thinking about?" Li Huiyuan felt that Lin Yi's gaze towards her was a bit off, so she raised her pink fist and asked, ready to throw a punch at any moment.

"Nothing... I just feel like... I might have chosen a fake major." Lin Yi didn't dare to say more.

Just then, a figure rushed over from behind, looking like a duck spirit that had transformed.

"Boss!" The person who came was naturally Tian Hengyu.

As soon as he caught up, he quickly reported the situation to the boss.

"There's only a hardened body in the bathing area, and not even a trace of the impostor Li Kai?" The boss frowned upon hearing this.

At this moment, Lin Yi remembered that there was still a body that hadn't been destroyed. He was careless.

Fortunately, Tian Hengyu was cleaning up. He really was a professional!

The boss didn't beat around the bush and looked directly at Lin Yi: "Did it self-destruct so thoroughly?"

"Boss... that was a 'self-destruction'!" Lin Yi was a little speechless. Doesn't self-destruction mean sacrificing everything to remain pure in the world?

The boss muttered: "I didn't expect it to be so thorough... To be able to recover so quickly after being so close to that level of explosion, it seems your physique has improved a lot?"

"It's all thanks to the boss's good teaching..." Lin Yi said.

"It has little to do with me." The boss shook his head slightly, not taking credit casually, and turned to look at Tian Hengyu, "Just handle that part, and don't worry about the rest. This time, I miscalculated and made you guys come for nothing."

"Okay, Boss. Oh, right, we also found Lao Yan's message, no, his last words, in the bathing area..."

"I knew that from the beginning," the boss said. "I specifically called the impostor Li Kai over after seeing Xiao Yanzi's last words."

"I observed for a while and didn't find him in his green hat form. If he doesn't appear in his green hat form after observing again, it means he perished together with that green hat."

"Let's leave the matter of the locker room at that. Next, you guys continue to train and adjust your state to the best... Tonight will be the hardest night to get through."

Hearing the boss's words, a solemn expression immediately appeared on Tian Hengyu's face. He pursed his lips and nodded: "Okay, Boss."

Tian Hengyu turned and left, but he felt that something was wrong in his heart. It wasn't until he had taken several steps that he suddenly realized something and slapped his head: "Wait, what did the boss just say? It seemed like..."

"Self-destruction?!"

"Damn, that Lin Yi actually forced the impostor Li Kai to self-destruct? What exactly did he do?"

"Wait... he even survived the self-destruction?"

"Is he still an 'intern'?"

He shivered and quickly quickened his pace to find Xu Shunkang and the others.

...

On the other side, Lin Yi's expression also changed slightly upon hearing this.

《Tonight will be the hardest night to get through》

This sentence seemed to be directed at him as well.

Yesterday night, dirty things ran onto his bed. How much more excessive will tonight be? It's a little unimaginable...

Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body, and he vaguely felt a dark cloud lingering on his forehead, unable to be dispelled no matter what.

He adjusted his emotions and then observed the environment on the first floor of the gymnasium.

As a result, he found that Song Rentou and Shan Nan seemed to be missing from the first floor of the gymnasium, as if they hadn't come to physical education class.

"Who are you looking for?" The boss's voice rang in his ear.

Lin Yi quickly said, "Boss, I happen to have something to tell you."

"Speak."

"There are two somewhat strange people in our class... Uh, Boss, why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing..." The boss thought to herself that you are the most abnormal person, but she was too embarrassed to say it.

"You don't think I'm weird too, do you?" Lin Yi couldn't help but ask.

"No." The boss immediately put on a straight face.

After a pause, she added: "There are many people entering the school. It's normal for there to be a few strange ones. You'll get used to it."

"Uh... so, we don't need to care about them?" Lin Yi asked in confusion.

"No need to care," the boss affirmed.

Her attitude was surprisingly the same as Mu Daxian's, which made Lin Yi stunned for a moment. Could it be that he was the only one taking these things seriously?

But on second thought, it was true. The boss and Mu Daxian were the main combat forces facing the gray fog invasion, and they were dealing with major events directly related to the life and death of the campus. Where would they have the interest to pay attention to some passing people?

Besides, even if there was something, it would be something for the homeroom teacher to consider, right?

"Then I won't care either!" Hearing this, Lin Yi seemed to be enlightened by Jack Ma's sentence "I'm not interested in money", and he also realized it on the spot and started slacking off.

But even though he said that, he always felt a sense of guilt in his heart, as if this matter... was somehow related to him in the dark.
