Why is my time traveling to the second dimension such a weird rule story?

But how did she do it?

Although Gao Hai's perception is very powerful, in this fleeting moment, after all, he is not in direct contact with the core obsession, but only in touch with the phantom of the past. It is still difficult for him to see anything deeper and further.

However, at this moment when he tried his best to let go of his perception and go as deep as possible while resisting the strong mental erosion, Gao Hai finally saw something.

That was in the school corridor where nothing unusual had happened yet.

That was the moment when the girl with her hair cut off and her body covered with injuries sat alone on the stairwell under the night sky, staring blankly.

No students will stay in school at this time, because everyone knows the story of [Darkness] and knows that danger may occur at this time. The teachers will not stay. After all, in the last year of the experiment at Zaori Elementary School, some strange phenomena have come true. Even if the identity of the "teacher" is set to a safe identity in advance, [Heihuhu] can be driven away , but due to word of mouth from the students who served as the source carrier, the changes in [Heihu] itself became more and more serious. Now the teacher's identity is no longer safe, so no one dares to stay.

But what Chiyo Hachiya encountered was not that kind of monster.

She heard footsteps first.

Then she saw the flickering flashlight.

The smelly figure wearing a dirty apron slowly walked out.

This intellectually disabled person was dragged into Zaoli Elementary School in the first year of its establishment. After step-by-step induction and cognitive deflection of the students, he has turned into a butcher of bloodthirsty monsters. He still remembers his original life. He was recruited to the school as a [security guard], and he remembers his father's serious words to him when he sent him here, "You must fulfill your responsibilities well." So even though he has been distorted to the point of almost losing his human form, he will still patrol building after building at night.

However, in the past, when he found a child while patrolling, he would pull the child out of the teaching building with a silly smile, but now after being twisted, he would take the child he found into the kennel.

Tonight, he could vaguely feel that he had found a new prey, a new bad dog that was disobedient, a puppy that no one would blame if he ate it, and no one cared about it.

【hello】

Then, the girl appeared in front of him, waved to him and said.

——

Before he could see more clearly, Gao Hai had already broken away from the phantom of the past and returned to the inner area of ​​the Zaoli Elementary School copy.

It's a pity not to be able to obtain more information, but what we know now is enough to connect many clues.

However, I was so dizzy because of all this information that I was tossing, and I even had an irresistible feeling. Hayasaka loved an ordinary person who had not undergone any strengthening of will. Why was her reaction not much different from his own? Does she have any hidden lock settings?

Gao Hai's confusion became more intense when he looked at Ai Hayasaka, who looked normal in front of him and had no intention of entering a temporary state of madness.

Chapter 46: The moment of moving towards the outer area and the teaching of stealth skills

Squeak——

With a piercing sound, a slightly worn door was slowly opened, and then Gao Hai poked his head in, observing carefully.

It seemed like this place was an auditorium, but it was obviously more shabby than the auditorium on the surface of Zaori Elementary School. There were black stains all over the walls and floor, and there was an unsettling smell of rust. .

Of course, in the dungeon world of the sacrifice game, this kind of underworld scene is normal. If you suddenly encounter a place that looks sunny, beautiful and happy, it will make players extremely uneasy and alert.

"No problem for now, come in."

After careful investigation, Gao Hai stepped into the room first, and then spoke to Hayasaka behind him.

Wearing a wet T-shirt, Hayasaka walked in with her bare feet. She already subconsciously walked to Gao Hai's side, almost sticking to him like a little follower. Although the two of them have only worked together for a dozen hours at most since Gao Hai officially rescued Hayasaka, Hayasaka is now able to naturally follow Gao Hai, basically whatever he orders Instructions can be understood and executed immediately.

Regardless of other aspects, this girl is still very good at being obedient.

Thinking like this, Gao Hai reached out and touched the scratches on his arms, and then pressed on his neck.

Regarding the scratches on his body, Gao Hai clearly remembered that they were scratched by Kaguya when he forcibly kissed her. Although the opponent had turned into a monster, it showed a side similar to that of a living person because of the mechanism [thinking that he was still alive], so at that moment Kaguya reacted as if he had been insulted and broke away directly. His hand disappeared.

However, when they just met before, Hayasaka told Gao Hai that there was a hickey on his neck. This is a little strange. He doesn't remember Kaguya trying to kiss him. After all, it's impossible for Kaguya to do such a thing, right?

Gao Hai was very puzzled by this. He thought and analyzed many possibilities, but he still couldn't figure out why there was an extra hickey on his neck.

But anyway, the kiss appeared after I kissed Kaguya, which means that the action of [kissing] caused this change. Wait, speaking of which, I have obtained a hidden role in every copy so far, whether it is the "corpse" in Shirakawa Apartment, the "general" in the Red Nut Gray Cave, or the "teacher" in Fujika Junior High School. Although these identities are hidden, they will still produce corresponding effects according to my actions.

Could it be that because I kissed Kaguya, I got some special effect?

Wait, if it is deduced from the identity problem, it can't be caused by the action of [teacher] kissing [student]? After all, Maki and the others did find a way to get me a fake teaching position, and Kaguya's identity is indeed a "student". If the interaction of this identity behavior itself can correspond to the history of Hayate Elementary School...

No way?

Gao Hai, who thought of a certain possibility, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly began to feel a little guilty.

It shouldn't be like this, forget it, anyway, continue to investigate and explore, and you should be able to figure out the general situation.

Now, what we have to do in this round is very clear, that is, to collect as many clues as possible, and if possible, it is best to understand all the relevant situations of the core obsession in one step. In this way, when we return to the next time, we can minimize all uncertainties and solve the problem as safely as possible.

Of course, this is just the best estimate. Only time will tell what the result will be.

As for now, Gao Hai's plan is very simple. Since he can reach the inner area by crossing the edge of the surface space of the copy, then if he finds the edge of the inner space and falls into the deeper area, where will he go?

Gao Hai suspects that if there is a more hidden and deeper area in this copy, it may be there.

If the chaotic space on the surface is a distorted place pieced together by the fragments of Hayate Elementary School and the memories of the dead who strayed into this place, and the chaotic world that solidified and disrupted the moment when Hayate Elementary School fell into destruction is regarded as the inner space of this copy, then the third area that is uncertain whether it exists, the deeper world, Gao Hai believes that it is very likely to represent all the truths hidden in this copy, representing the so-called [truth].

So what should be done now is to find and determine whether this possibility is true or false.

"Squat down and don't make a sound."

Gao Hai whispered to Hayasaka, and the girl nodded hurriedly and squatted down immediately.

The large T-shirt can cover all the places that should not be exposed when the girl stands, but after bending down and squatting, Gao Hai only needs to tilt his head slightly to clearly see the outline of Hayasaka's thighs. Although Hayasaka will consciously reach out and press the T-shirt to avoid exposure after squatting, this feeling of half-covering and half-exposing seems to be more interesting than fully exposing in a sense.

Unfortunately, now is not the time to appreciate such things, so Gao Hai did not even look at the girl beside him, but focused all his attention on the things in front of him.

Those were soldiers without heads, staggering and holding guns.

Compared with the headless people in the school who were generally clean, these soldiers looked much more terrifying. There were a lot of wounds cut by blades on their bodies. They walked along, dripping blood all the way, and trembling all the way.

Those wounds that almost dismembered these headless bodies seemed to contain some kind of cursed power. Even if Gao Hai just looked at those wounds with his naked eyes, he could feel a strong chill. And these weird things seemed to be constantly tortured by these wounds. Even if they were dead, even if they had become inhuman weird things, these wounds could never heal, and would continue to bring intense pain.

But no matter how painful it was, these soldiers had no way to express it.

They couldn't cry, shout, or express themselves through words, sounds, and expressions after their heads were cut off. Maybe this was some kind of punishment? Or is it the feedback of some bad behavior? They have to endure endless pain, but they are not allowed to express their pain, as if... the executor wants to use this method to let these people experience what they have experienced before, and use this method as their revenge?

Thinking of the things he saw before during the fall, Gao Hai couldn't help but connect these things and began to think and analyze what purpose the individual named [Hachiya Chiyo] had in these behaviors.

Tap-tap-tap-

The stumbling footsteps have gradually faded away.

Gao Hai carefully observed the surroundings for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing in this place, he took Hayasaka and continued to move forward carefully, passing this room, and then passing through a very old corridor. He opened the door, and outside the door was a large military camp.

At this moment, the sky has dimmed, and it is already night. The military camp is pitch black, and almost no sound can be heard. Only lights are flashing at the gate of the military camp in the distance, and it seems that there are some headless figures patrolling.

There is a small room on one side of the camp, which seems to be a bathroom and laundry room. Gao Hai noticed that there was a women's bathroom inside, so he sneaked in, and found some women's clothes hanging to dry, so Hayasaka finally didn't have to wear a wet shirt to follow him.

Having said that, why is there a special place for women to bathe in a military camp full of big bosses?

Feeling very confused, Gao Hai noticed that the corridor outside the women's shower room was connected to another building, and there was a sign saying "Solace Camp" at the entrance of this building. This building only has a shell, and the internal structure was not shown in the copy of Zaoli Elementary School, perhaps because no one was inside when the incident occurred. But even so, it was enough for Gao Hai to figure out what this place was used for.

"There are even places like this, which means that the neon soldiers back then really didn't even spare their own people."

Gao Hai, who didn't know what to say, could only sigh in the end.

"Madness leads to destruction, and this is the natural outcome. Although that period of history does not make sense to me, I feel that such a thing should be destroyed."

For some reason, Hayasaka didn't want to take off Gao Hai's T-shirt, so he just found a pair of trousers of a suitable size and put them on. Hayasaka came over. After seeing what Gao Hai was looking at, he hesitated for a moment, and then spoke in a low voice. own opinion.

"Yes, but the place we are in now is, in a sense, shaped by those lunatics who dehumanized people back then. So when it comes to destroying hazardous waste, it should be destroyed completely, leaving behind a lot of disasters What. Okay, don’t waste time here anymore, the road ahead is not going to be easy.”

Speaking like this, Gao Hai turned his attention to the exit of the military camp.

When he was in the surface space before, Gao Hai jumped out through the window of the small bedroom in the opening scene and fell into the inner space. The small room itself is the result of the memory of a certain victim, and it is a victim who is at least in the early 21st century. In other words, the closer to the outer area of ​​the copy, the more memory scenes seem to be dominated by the memory scenes of new victims. And if this point is substituted into the inner space, then the military camp area that was finally swallowed up by the copy is likely to be the peripheral area of ​​this copy, at least very close to the peripheral area.

From here, you might be able to find a passage into the possible [deeper depths].

The two figures, one tall and one short, continued to move cautiously, using all corners of the military camp to explore.

Gao Hai did not enter those tents rashly. He could feel the strong malice coming from these quiet tents, and noticed that there were several or even more than a dozen headless soldiers standing in each tent. They remained quiet and motionless, as if they had fallen asleep. But if you really think that these things are not a threat and approach them, the end will not be good.

"call……"

Hayasaka's breathing was already a little unsteady.

Like Gao Hai, she could not sense the quiet strange things in the military camp, but the strong aura of malice and resentment that had gathered had begun to make her feel extremely uncomfortable. She felt as if she could inhale a large amount of blood with every breath she took. The sweet and fishy smell filled her throat so strongly that she almost vomited immediately. Not only that, even though he didn't feel any gaze, Hayasaka had a creepy feeling that something was constantly looking for him and observing his surroundings, as if it was trying to see through every pore of his body.

Of course Gao Hai also had all of these feelings, and they were far clearer and more intense than what Hayasaka felt.

But compared to the girl who was already gritting her teeth and struggling to support herself, Gao Hai himself did not show any discomfort at all. After all, this level of discomfort seemed to him to be too relaxing, and it was not even enough to be called an after-dinner exercise.

【■■■……■……】

Vaguely, there seemed to be a voice not far ahead.

After bypassing two tents and temporary houses, both Takami and Hayasaka noticed the lights on in a building in front of them.

【■■……】

【■■■……】

Someone was talking inside, talking and discussing, but I don’t know what they were talking about.

Gao Hai first hid in the dark and carefully observed his surroundings, and found some soldiers who were standing still and seemed to be on guard. Most of these things have lost their heads, and their bodies are dripping with blood, looking like bloody people. But there are still a few individuals whose heads are still there. I don’t know why these monsters have not been beheaded, and they are still standing guard with those headless things, turning their heads with serious expressions to observe the surroundings.

"You hide here, don't move, I'll see if I can go forward and overhear the sound inside."

Moving his hands and feet, Gao Hai summoned a pistol and was ready to try the assassin-style infiltration method if he failed to infiltrate.

"Mr. Gao, if you want to sneak in, you can choose this side."

But immediately after, Hayasaka stretched out his hand and pointed to Gao Hai a dark corner next to the building, and then pointed to a small corner under the outer wall of the building where debris was piled up.

"There are a total of 3 soldiers with heads. The perspectives of two of them interact every 12 seconds, and the other always maintains a single perspective. As long as you can seize the right opportunity, you can use this corner and the pile of debris to block the perspective and hide. To explore those things, Mr. Gao, you can do this..."

Hayasaka's voice was very calm, and he explained Gao Hai very seriously.

As Kaguya's personal maid, one of Hayasaka Ai's specialties is infiltration, having received various trainings.

Whether it is a secret area with various security measures or a secret room with high-tech protection, she can easily sneak into it. Combined with her powerful cross-dressing and acting abilities, it can be said that this girl can definitely work as a killer if she wants to.

Of course, these things are not important at this time. What is important is that she finally found a way to help Gao Hai, and is no longer just a dragster.

After seeing Gao Hai listening to her voice carefully and thinking carefully about the plan she proposed, the girl didn't even notice that she was slightly happy about it, and she couldn't help but feel happy.

Chapter 47: Weird version of infiltration time, battlefield time and deeper entrance

Under the dim night, Gao Hai was lying on the ground, moving carefully.

1007…1008…

He counted the time silently in his heart.

When the count reached 12, Gao Hai raised his head and his whole body emerged from the shadows. And coincidentally, a soldier who was originally monitoring this direction turned his head and looked in another direction.

Just like Hayasaka said, the movement trajectories of these soldiers are very easy to predict. As long as you find out the patterns, you can sneak around them smoothly.

Take a deep breath, then hold your breath, count silently in your mind, and then continue moving.

Takami, who remembered the key points that Hayasaka had said before, moved again and moved to the alley on the side.

Although the soldiers standing guard had been observing their surroundings, none of them noticed Gao Hai's movements.

Gao Hai looked in the direction he came from, and Hayasaka was hiding inside, watching him nervously. Although Hayasaka found an opportunity to sneak in, because her physical fitness was not as outrageous as Gao Hai's and her mental resistance was not enough, she just watched Gao Hai's actions from a distance and did not participate.

Speaking of which, this guy is pretty good at making observations in this area. Should I be called a two-dimensional maid? Speaking of Japanese two-dimensional maids, although they look like just cute girls on the surface, they are capable of assassination, fighting, sneaking, cross-dressing, and all kinds of skills. Sometimes they even include skills such as hacking, rapping, and dancing, etc., highlighting one all-rounder. Which author brought up this outrageous character?

The random thoughts in his mind did not affect the vigor of his actions at all. Gao Hai moved quickly, rolled forward with a sliding shovel and hid in the pile of debris. He approached the window of the house where the sound came from and tried to eavesdrop on the conversation inside. content.

[It has been confirmed that Zaoli Elementary School has completely lost contact with the outside world. This is the second school to lose contact. The only one that is still running is Yeluoshan Middle School, but that school has basically lost control now, and our soldiers and researchers can no longer even enter that place]

At this distance, Gao Hai could already hear the sounds in the room clearly. It sounded like several people were discussing the issues of the three schools.

[So much money and manpower have been invested in these three studies, but the result is just like this? Sato, choosing to invest in you was really the biggest mistake of my life! Excuse me with death, you damn guy! 】

One of the men roared and cursed, and there seemed to be the sound of drawing a knife.

[Gao Tianyuan didn't fail, did he? If you kill me, you will have no way out. It seems that the situation on the front line is really bad, so bad that you have to force me to significantly advance the test progress. I think all of you are well aware that the things studied in this project are terrible things that we don’t understand at all and are difficult to control. Do you really have no idea what the consequences will be if you mess around with this kind of thing? Now it’s just your own fault.]

Sato's voice sounded like the ones Gao Hai had heard before. However, unlike the hysterical state when he reached the end of the road, Sato's voice now sounds quite proud, even a bit arrogant.

[Asshole, it’s not because you haven’t been able to come up with a feasible weapon for a long time. The weapon you developed can easily annihilate the Ameri Kingdom, but you said it! 】

The man from before roared again, but he didn't dare to step forward to do anything to Sato again.

[Nowadays, it is difficult to recycle Fujika Middle School and Yoroyama Middle School. Sato, tell the truth, can the project of Hayachi Elementary School still recycle useful things? Now that the front line is retreating steadily, we have basically reached the point where there is no way out. Even poison that can cause a thousand self-injury must be used. If even the project of Hayatachi Elementary School cannot be recycled, to be honest, I doubt whether your "Takamagahara" that seems to be fine can be used. Do you understand what I mean? 】

A calm man's voice sounded at this time, and his tone seemed very cold.
