Chapter 18 Eliminate Attention

Chapter 18 Eliminate attention

  "How do you know...cough cough! Don't talk nonsense!" Wei Liang clenched his fist and coughed dryly, "You are too lax, don't forget to take other classes, besides reading comics!"

  "Otherwise, there would be nothing to do in class. Although the classes at S City University are all formal, I can't play video games, and there is nothing else to do except reading comics!" Wei Liang said quibbled.

 Lin Yi felt that what Wei Liang said was not unreasonable.

 Hence, he silently took "One Rider as an

 As he continued to be immersed in reading, his brain's perception of the outside world began to weaken at a slow rate.

 Soon, he was immersed in the stories in the comic books.

 The classmate who had "sought enemies in the void" before was originally casting his empty gaze on the shadow of the classroom window glass. Suddenly, Lin Yi sensed something while he was immersed in reading comics. Then he turned around stiffly and slowly cast his gaze on the rows of seats in the circular lecture theater.

  He looked left and right, his face passing Lin Yi's position several times, but he still found nothing.

 Lin Yi successfully eliminated this classmate's attention to him, but he didn't know it.

 In fact, he doesn't need to know this.

 Because once he knows, he will enter this paradox cycle again.

After Lin Yi finished reading the first volume of "Yi Qi Dang X", he stretched his body for a long time, then moved his neck and glanced at his watch.

1:39.

 "More than an hour has passed before I knew it... Reading comics is really enough to pass the time."

 Lin Yi returned to his thoughts, subconsciously recalled it, and found that his memory of that classmate had become very blurry.

 When he turned his head, he found another pile of books beside him.

  It is the follow-up part of "Yi Qi Dang X" that Wei Liang found for him.

 Lin Yi smiled, picked up the second volume and started reading.

After reading three volumes so immersively, the time has reached 4:27. Lin Yi thinks back to last night, and only a vague shadow of the classmate remains in his mind.

 The feeling of being stared at has completely disappeared. Apart from being a little sleepy, I don’t feel any discomfort mentally.

 But the body is a little cold, especially the lower body is a little chilly, as if the cold air on the ground has spread to the legs.

  This is caused by staying up late reading and not moving the muscles and bones.

 Lin Yi stretched, yawned, and then stamped his feet.

 After briefly moving his muscles and adjusting his sitting posture, he was ready to continue reading.

 But at this moment, some movement around him caught his attention.

                    

                

   Some people left their seats, and not one person, but a group.

 This uniform movement is undoubtedly the wrong group of students.

 Lin Yi glanced at his watch.

4:30.

 "Four-thirty in the morning..."

 Lin Yi didn't know if there was any explanation for this time, but he immediately scribbled on the small book at hand: "4:30."

 At this time, more than 4 hours had passed since the security guard had struggled with that thing.

The security guard who originally rolled the thing down the steps has now disappeared.

 The students who originally stood up and stared at the window glass also sat back down, but now they are standing up one by one.

 Lin Yi maintained his posture of reading comics, but his eyes were rolling. He sat in the lecture theater and observed the surrounding movements with the corner of his eyes, and used his hearing to supplement the details.

 The reason why he dared to do this was because based on the killing mechanism of this group of classmates that he deduced, as long as he did not go to see them after lights out, they would not attract their attention.

 I saw classmates dragging their stiff bodies and walking with wooden steps, step by step down the steps of the lecture theater, and then walked towards the door of the classroom.

“Are they going to leave the classroom at this point?”
Is there a biological creature?"

  "When the classroom door was opened, I didn't see those students who were wrong being affected, so maybe I can put them into the same category?"

  "The only difference may be that the students who remain in the classroom still have some "student" characteristics."

  Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help but shudder.

"Sure enough, spending the night in the classroom can only be regarded as an 'option', not a 'correct answer'."

"No wonder Xu Shunkang said that he hopes to see me again tomorrow..."

Lin Yi was happy for his new discovery, but just when he was about to change a book to read, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed a foot stepping slowly into his field of vision.

  "Huh?"

  The opponent's feet were wearing a pair of old-fashioned sneakers, and there seemed to be some reddish-brown substance on the shoelaces.

 Lin Yi's first reaction was that it looked familiar, but as another foot stepped into his field of vision, his already dead memory began to attack him crazily.

  The hair on his arms suddenly exploded, and chills ran down his spine.

 "This...?!"

 Moving his eyes upward, Lin Yi's pupils were shocked for a moment, dilating for a while, and then contracted to the size of a needle's eye in an instant.

 That classmate was suddenly standing in front of him, only three chairs away from him!

 The classmate looked at Lin Yi's position with blank eyes, no unnecessary expression on his face.

 The weird smile that almost reached the ears that was revealed in the darkness is no longer there at this time.

  He was like a walking corpse, slowly approaching Lin Yi.

 Lin Yi's back jumped straight, the hair on his scalp stood upright, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

  "He obviously doesn't notice me anymore, why is he still like this?!"

  "It's so haunting! It's like you can fucking feel me here!"

  Lin Yi didn't dare to act rashly, but thoughts were running wildly in his mind.

 The classmate moved with stiff steps, slowly crossing the chairs one after another, closing the distance between him and Lin Yi.

 Lin Yi's pupils shrank smaller and smaller. He gritted his teeth and was so nervous that he forgot to breathe.

 But with absolute concentration, he suddenly judged something from the behavior of his classmates.

  A bold guess appeared in his mind!

  He quickly put away all the comic books at hand, and then carefully put away the folded chair.

  "Ryoko!" He whispered to the person next to him.

At this time, Wei Liang was so focused that he didn't even notice that Lin Yi had stood up.

 Hearing Lin Yi's voice, Wei Liang quickly pulled out of his thoughts.

                                                         Wei Liang caught a glimpse of Lin Yi’s classmates who were pressing behind Lin Yi, and mid‐sentence of his words suddenly turned into inarticulate sounds of the Huaguoshan monkey... r/> Lin Yi took out one hand with difficulty, raised his finger to his mouth, and then lowered his voice and said, "Put the book away and run! Hurry, hurry up!"

 Hurry up!"

 At this time, the classmate was only two chairs away from Lin Yi, and a strong sense of oppression surged out of him like a tide, overwhelming Lin Yi and the others.

                                                                   errors Wei Liang was incoherent and his tongue was tied nervously.

 Seeing his classmates forcing him closer and closer, under the absolute pressure, he suddenly gritted his teeth and used a magic trick that could shock Lin Yi's eyes.

  The number of comic books in his hand was more than three times that of Lin Yi's, but he actually held this number of comic books in his arms at once!

  Then, under the attention of Lin Yi's almost incomprehensible "grandpa on the subway looking at his phone" expression, he quietly retracted the chair with just the precise control of his gluteus maximus and hamstring muscles!

  Lin Yi was so shocked that there were only four words left in his mind:

  "Strange and obscene skills!"

   "Damn it, it's all about uncanny skills!"

  "What are you looking at? Let's go!" Wei Liang glared at Lin Yi fiercely and lowered his voice angrily.

  "Holy shit, how can I leave if you don't leave?" Lin Yi winked at him.

  "Oops! Let's go, let's go!"

  Hence, Wolong and Fengchu hugged the comic tightly, walking on thin ice between the chairs in the circular lecture hall, feeling quite like two brothers walking on the ridge of a field.

 It was not until he walked out of the seat row that Wei Liang dared to look back at the classmate. At the same time, he couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Old Lin, what's going on? Oh my god...Is Old Lin paying attention to him..."

 Lin Yi did not leave the seat row at all.

To be precise, he actually only walked to the chair that was not too far away from his original chair - that is, the second chair on Wei Liang's left hand side and stopped.

 Then he looked at the classmates’ movements calmly.

 I saw the classmate coming to where Lin Yi was sitting, and then stretched out a pair of thin and white hands, constantly exploring the area like stirring water waves.

 It looks very much like Xiao Qiao in the Canyon of Kings with three exclamation marks on his forehead, using "top prediction" to hit a certain patch of air with all his skills.

 After some attempts to no avail, the classmate slowly retracted his hand, then left silently, blending into the flow of people walking up the stairs to the classroom door.

 Lin Yi squinted his eyes, and a light suddenly appeared in the depths of his calm eyes...

 It was like a novice who had just entered the game and successfully cracked a certain mechanism in the level through his own efforts, and then a touch of excitement appeared in his eyes!

  The way Lin Yi looked at his classmates calmly and calmly shocked Wei Liang. All the words that had come to his lips were forgotten by him. At this moment, he only had one doubt:

  "Old Lin, what happened just now? That guy..."

  Lin Yi glanced at Wei Liang and raised his eyebrows: "Now you are curious about things other than the rules again?"

"Haha, I'm curious! I don't want to be dragged into a trap by you." Wei Liang curled his lips and sneered, "I mean, have you found a way to distract that guy?" , don't tell me."

 Lin Yi knew Wei Liang's worries, but still said: "Liangzi, I think you should know some "mechanisms", just in case..."

 "I'll stop it! I advise you not to put a flag on me!" Wei Liang said quickly, "Without any chance, I won't be noticed by him before, I won't be noticed now, and I won't be noticed in the future..."

  "If I knew how to eliminate it, I would probably be noticed by him accidentally."

"..." Lin Yi opened his mouth, but was speechless, "Then... well, I can only say that reading comics is really a good way."

  ...Ah, right, Lao Lin!" Wei Liang suddenly thought of it, and suddenly his expression became excited, "Did you see what I did just now?"

 "Just that, that, that..." He put down the comic book and made famous gestures, pointing at the muscles of his thighs and patting his butt. The more he looked, the more he looked like a monkey from Huaguo Mountain.

  "It's full! My operation is really full!"

  Lin Yi rolled his eyes and could only agree cooperatively: "Ah 66666..."

  Then he turned over his chair and sat down, put down the comics, looked at the door of the classroom, and at the same time glanced at the pendulum clock hanging above the podium and his watch.

 The time is all 4:46.

  "It's just a flight of stairs, a full 16 minutes' walk!"

  "This speed is completely incomparable with that after lights out!"

  Lin Yi glanced at the ceiling.

  "It seems that the "light" has very great restrictions on them..."

  He thought of the corridor. As the lights went out and on, the figure huddled in the darkness disappeared.

  He also thought of the street lights in the thick fog, which seemed to have the ability to drive away unknown creatures.

Thinking of this, he immediately shook his head to stop himself from continuing to think in this direction. At the same time, he opened a small notebook and wrote "Light" next to "4:30".

 This is a shorthand note he made to prevent himself from forgetting key clues. When he reaches the time and place where he can think carefully, he will think about this issue.

  Wei Liang took the comic book back and followed Lin Yi's gaze at the wall of the classroom.

   "It's almost five o'clock. It's almost dawn. Let's go to the cafeteria for breakfast later?"

  "Okay." Lin Yi nodded, but then asked, "Can't we make it in time?"

 There is a map in the teaching building regulations. The opening hours of the canteen are marked on the map, which are 5:40~8:00, 10:40~13:20, and 16:00~20:00 every day.

  "Why is it too late?" Wei Liang said subconsciously, "The door opens at 5:40!"

  Lin Yi corrected: "But the rules of the teaching building stipulate that if you stay overnight, you must study by yourself until 7:40 before leaving the classroom. Only if you stay overnight in the dormitory, you can leave at 6:00."< br/>
  Wei Liang was stunned again, and then he realized the problem. He couldn't help but touch the back of his head and smiled awkwardly: "Oops, I almost misremembered the time just now, but luckily you reminded me!"

  "But thinking about it this way, there really may not be enough time..." Wei Liang muttered.

Lin Yi waved his hand and said comfortingly: "It's okay, let's talk about it later. If it doesn't work, just go hungry and eat more at noon."

 "Well, that's all we can do..."

 At this moment, the wrong classmate who was walking at the front reached out and held the door handle of the classroom door.

  "Click! Click!"

  After the unknown creature was dragged away by the security, the classroom door was not locked. Although the students' movements were very slow, they still opened the classroom door naturally.

         

   The door opened, and the morning wind from the mountains mixed with the morning dew and the fragrance of flowers and plants flowed in like water from a stream, diluting the turbid atmosphere that had settled in the classroom overnight.

 As the door kept opening, Lin Yi saw a dark blue world with floating mist...

 X May 7, 2023, 4:53.

 The slightly bright sky reflects the blue of the sea, and thin mist flows in the university in City S, as if it has sunk into the deep sea.
