Rules-related weird stories: 4016

Suddenly, a "boom" echoed in his mind, and the world before his eyes abruptly shattered. A scene, like a simulated deduction, emerged in his mind—

The scene was a dimly lit lecture hall. The thick, blast-proof glass of the classroom windows was covered in a layer of water mist. Raindrops constantly beat against the windows, and the damp, cold atmosphere seemed to permeate the classroom.

This was May 6th, X023, Group B, Class 2 after the lights went out...

The normal scene appeared in Lin Yi's mind, and then, from a God's-eye view, he saw the inhuman students with expressions of madness and obsession. They extracted themselves from their deeply sunken seats as if drawing knives, and then moved slowly around the classroom with stiff steps.

In this classroom, the little genius was huddled under a desk, took out a flashlight from his body, turned on the beam, and began to observe the classroom.

After a while—or perhaps very quickly—the door of the classroom was opened by a conceptual sculpture, and a green mist carrying a strong aura of pollution poured into the classroom.

The inhuman students who absorbed the green mist began to turn into human-shaped sculptures, and the little genius who witnessed this scene collapsed on the spot, his pupils scattering...

Then, the green mist drilled into the little genius's body, and the human-shaped sculptures, as if smelling delicious food, swarmed towards the little genius, pulling him out from under the desk...

What followed was a bloody and cruel scene. The little genius was mangled beyond recognition by the human-shaped sculptures, his limbs perhaps broken and incomplete.

When the little genius's flashlight fell to the ground and was kicked by the human-shaped sculptures, some of the students who were not focused enough were attracted by the flashlight's beam. Seeing the scene also caused their cognition to collapse, and at that moment, the little genius fired a shot with a death rattle, and after the bullet flew for a while, it randomly took away some lucky viewers.

God · AOE · Guan Yu.

When the scene in Lin Yi's mind deduced to this point, it did not stop. Time flowed quickly, skipping the scene of the security guard taking the conceptual level being away, and time came to before the lights were about to be turned on again.

Several human-shaped sculptures dragged the little genius's body out of the classroom, down the steps, and into the green belt.

The little genius was left to rot in the wilderness, but his corpse was still continuously absorbing the green mist. When daylight came, the little genius's corpse, which had absorbed the green mist, gradually turned into a white plaster-like sculpture under the sunlight.

Because he had suffered inhuman torture before his death, the sculpture still maintained that hideous and abstract tragic state after being petrified.

The picture gradually began to freeze here, and the perspective of the picture in Lin Yi's mind began to move slowly. Finally, when the picture completely froze, the "camera" turned to the teaching building, freezing on the "himself" who looked out the window on the morning of May 7th and then discovered the little genius.

Time seemed to have reached a certain closed loop in the cycle, and this time, obviously, there were more details, which, to some extent, filled the gap of that night.

Lin Yi felt a little unbelievable. This kind of picture was actually a kind of "dynamic puzzle" formed by piecing together his current speculation, the sounds he heard that night, Tian Bufan's dream from his perspective, and the pictures he saw in Pan Jian's digital camera, but it was so real that he thought the truth might be so.

As he thought about it, he was about to come back to his senses, but he realized that the ground beside his feet was covered with frost at some point. The chill that he had not noticed before, at the same time as he realized it, flooded him like a burst of flood.

The extreme cold instantly enveloped him, as if a blizzard attacked S City University in the dark.

He suddenly realized that the lights in the corridor were off. No, it wasn't that the lights were off, but... there were no lights in the corridor at all!

Li Hui Yuan was not by his side, nor was the door to the teacher's office.

"What the hell... when did I drop the layer?!"

A strong sense of unease surged in Lin Yi's heart. He found himself in a corridor without lights but not dark. This corridor was like a tunnel riddled with holes in a blizzard. The cold wind blew snowflakes around in the tunnel, and the ground under his feet and the surrounding walls were already covered with frost.

Even the ceiling above his head was hung with icicles.

At the same time, the fierce cold wind continued to swirl in the corridor, making a bone-chilling "woo woo woo" sound, as if a chainsaw maniac was frantically hacking granite. In that audio that did not belong to human voices, Lin Yi keenly captured a trace of strange tone...

"Squeak... squeak..."

This kind of sound, which seemed to be made by putting a tuner in a pipe and pulling it closer and further, was like someone hanging on a rope and shouting to you. The sound was sometimes far and sometimes near, with a little echo, chaotic and noisy. Lin Yi didn't want to hear it, but he could hear it. He wanted to hear it, but he couldn't hear it clearly, and his heart was tormented.

Suddenly, he found a figure slowly emerging from the depths of the dark corridor...

The figure walked out of the dim shadows, gradually revealing his face...

The moment he saw the other person's face, Lin Yi's scalp was numb and stimulated as if someone had torn it off. The cold air spun wildly, and he could no longer distinguish whether it came from the corridor or from the bottom of his heart.

Only because the person who walked out of the shadows was actually... the little genius.

Lin Yi really wanted to say, aren't you on the way to the beach? Even if you're lost, go die at the stadium, what's going on coming back here?

If there was BGM at this time, then it must be God's damn fate that made us meet beyond light years...

"Don't panic, don't panic..." Lin Yi took a deep breath and reached into his pocket. He now felt that his mind was still clear, and he also knew that there were still some basic operations that he had not used, so he reached out and grabbed the student ID card in his pocket...

"Huh?!"

"Wait... student ID?!"

He touched a round card, the material was very similar to the student ID card, but... it was round!

The student ID card will never be round, so this is...

He suddenly pulled out his hand, only to see a round coin in his hand, with a pattern of the World Tree surrounded by thorny vines engraved on the coin.

"Student commemorative coin...?"

"I'm fucking done for!"

His vision blurred, and he found that his hand was indeed not his own, but Mao Feiyang's dark and thin hand.

He used his thumb to buckle the edge of the student commemorative coin and flipped it over, only to see that the front of the student commemorative coin was indeed written with "Month - X02305070323".

"Month - X02305070323" is Mao Feiyang's art student number.

"I jumped to Maozi's perspective again due to visual misalignment! So at some point, Maozi encountered the little genius here?"

"Is it now, or...?"

Lin Yi looked at the little genius walking out of the darkness step by step, his heart suddenly tightened. The little genius in front of him tilted his neck, his head swaying, his body twisted like a congenital deformity, but those eyes were staring straight at "Lin Yi".

In the shadows behind it, the mist advanced like a tide of snakes, accompanied by a chaotic and noisy response. The rustling sound of friction on the floor grew closer, creating a strong sense of absurdity and cultishness.

The little prodigy reached out his hand towards him, and behind him, a pair of illusory golden eyes seemed to appear, as if some indescribable existence was overlooking a humble ant…

The biting cold wind, wrapped in swirling snowflakes, constantly battered the dim corridor. Inhuman whispers of pain mingled with the eerie rhythms of 'rustling' and 'shuffling.' All the sounds merged and dissolved into a single sentence within a certain frequency band—

【I AvgruNnen av tKe og mrke jaGer forTapte Sjeler fanTome…】

Lin Yi felt as if he were in an ice cellar, his limbs suddenly turning cold, and his skin gradually turning a pale gray.

"Not good, am I succumbing?!"

"The pollution is enveloping my body through the illusion!"

"明明只是视角转化，为什么会这样？"

The last time he switched to Mao Feiyang's perspective, the situation wasn't like this.

Lin Yi's heart jolted, and he suddenly understood the reason—time!

The last perspective switch was around 13:30 noon. Although there were some clouds in the sky, it was still broad daylight. But now… now it's freaking abnormal weather!

He wouldn't absorb pollution from Mao Feiyang's perspective, but… he's still in the corridor!

Even though the mist dissipated immediately after seeping in, there would still be some residue. Maybe he could even absorb the residual pollution, like… a human-shaped vacuum cleaner?

"I'm so screwed."

Looking at the student commemorative coin in his hand, a look of struggle appeared in Lin Yi's eyes.

He looked at the approaching little prodigy and his increasingly chilling body, and the struggle in his eyes gradually turned into determination.

"There's no other way, I can only try anything!"

He stuffed the student commemorative coin back into his pocket, then loosened his hand, took a deep breath, focused his attention on the wall beside him, and began chanting in his mind like a mantra:

“My name is Lin Yi, my student ID is X0230506098, my student ID is in my pocket, I am currently in the corridor of Building B of the teaching building, I am with Li Huiyuan, and the teacher's office is next to me…”

“My name is Lin Yi, my student ID is X0230506098, I…”

He chanted non-stop. As he chanted, the vision in front of him suddenly began to turn into a flickering, skipping frame-like image, as if controlled by someone. The wall beside him also repeatedly switched between dimness and the normal wall illuminated by the incandescent light.

Lin Yi was overjoyed and exclaimed that it was working.

“My name is Lin Yi, my student ID is X0230506098, my student ID is in my pocket, I am currently in the corridor of Building B of the teaching building, I am with Li Huiyuan, and the teacher's office is next to me…”

He continued to chant. The little prodigy in the distance was still approaching rapidly. The flickering and switching of his vision gradually slowed down, and the vision began to linger more on the normal corridor illuminated by the incandescent light…

“My name is Lin Yi… my student ID, is in my pocket…”

“Right! Here!”

He grabbed into his pocket and grasped a thin, rectangular card with a very familiar texture.

Student ID!

He slowly pulled the student ID out of his pocket, glanced diagonally downwards, and saw the number “098”…

"It really is the student ID!"

“Huff…”

He put the student ID back and let out a long breath, as if to expel all the stagnant air accumulated in his chest.

He looked at the wall and found that it had returned to normal, and the surrounding incandescent lights were also constantly on.

He glanced at the direction where the little prodigy had been and found that the little prodigy was long gone.

On the other side, Li Huiyuan had just finished reporting the situation to the homeroom teacher - 040, seemingly unaware that Lin Yi had just "traveled" for a while.

"…That's how it is, we escaped before the mist submerged the convenience store."

After listening to Li Huiyuan's report, the teacher's office fell into a long silence, with only wisps of mist reminding them of the passage of time.

"I understand."

Finally, the voice of the homeroom teacher - 040 sounded from behind the door, "You go back to the classroom first. I'll take care of some things, and I'll come to the classroom to take you away later."

"Take me away?" Li Huiyuan was stunned for a moment, thinking of the student code of conduct, "Where are you going to take me? To find the school doctor?"

Homeroom teacher - 040 said: "You'll know when the time comes… soon."

Li Huiyuan looked down at the crack in the door, pursed her lips, and didn't say anything.

Homeroom teacher - 040 didn't continue to say anything, but closed the peephole with a "click."

Li Huiyuan cast a questioning look at Lin Yi.

"Let's go back to the classroom first."

From just now, Lin Yi had been shrouded in an ominous premonition. This ominousness didn't come from Li Huiyuan, but had been accumulating little by little since he entered the cafeteria for dinner. By just now, it had made him feel a sense of oppression as if the sky was about to collapse.

He was a little worried, worried that he would be trapped in the teaching building by the mist tonight.

And after understanding some of the mechanisms of the night-walking species, the inhuman classmates, and the human-shaped sculptures, although he was confident in dealing with them, behind them, how many more powerful severe pollutants were there?

Especially that kind of concept-level sculpture composed of countless broken glass shards, even the physical education students regarded it as a formidable enemy. Once it entered the classroom and found him by smelling the scent of pollution, what would he do?

After 21:00, even a physical education student wouldn't dare to stay in Class 2 of Group B!

Who should he ask for help?

How should he escape from a desperate situation?

In the face of absolute strength disparity, even running away became a pathetic joke.

Lin Yi cleared up his thoughts and helped Li Huiyuan walk towards Class 2 of Group B next to him. He noticed that neither Li Huiyuan nor the homeroom teacher - 040 seemed to have noticed his abnormality just now.

Although the process just now was fraught with dangers, at least the ending didn't have any major problems, and he seemed to have supplemented a part of the logical chain regarding the inhuman classmates!

The two quickly arrived in front of Class 2 of Group B. Lin Yi first looked down at the time.

18:29.

Then he confirmed that there was no problem with the classroom's door number, and then pushed open the classroom door.

When he pushed open the door and entered the classroom, that familiar warmth slowly enveloped Lin Yi again, as if the holy light with a purification effect was dispelling the coldness of his body, but he immediately felt that something was not right.
