Today was not as foggy as yesterday, and therefore the sun was setting a bit later, but even so, it would be dark in less than ten minutes.
“Darkness…”
Upon thinking of this, Lin Yi narrowed his eyes.
He rembered what Xu Shunkang had said:
“Nightti is their turf.”
Who?
Those strange classmates.
Perhaps…
“Including…the Green Hats?”
Sothing suddenly occurred to him, and his eyes lit up: “Could it be that the Green Hats have so special ‘chanism’ at night that even they can’t contend with?”
After a brief recollection, he noticed another detail—when Xu Shunkang intercepted the green-aproned Pocket Chef at noon, he actually hadn’t entered the Student Cafeteria.
Xu Shunkang stood at the exit of the Student Cafeteria like a guardian deity, yet—he never once set foot inside the Cafeteria.
Furthermore…
The initial look in Xu Shunkang’s eyes wasn’t quite right, almost as if he harbored so killing intent, but for so unknown reason, it changed, and he allowed Lin Yi to pass.
“Wait…could it be because he saw the ‘Student ID card’ in my hand?”
In Lin Yi’s mind, a piece of information exploded: the Cafeteria rules stated that when a strange noise ca from window number 10, you should imdiately clutch your Student ID card in hand and flee the Student Cafeteria.
Could it be because the Sports Students would crouch at the entrance, waiting for the abnormal situation to occur, and at that ti, only the “normal classmates” with Student ID cards could leave the Cafeteria?!
“Do Sports Students also identify people this way?”
“So the lockers at the Gymnasium are accessed with a ‘Student ID card’, not a ‘Gymnasium rule card’?”
The presence of the waterproof card case also seed to make sense; nothing could more clearly signify one’s identity than inserting a Student ID card into a waterproof card case!
The more he thought about it, the more Lin Yi felt the importance of the Student ID card.
He didn’t dare imagine how dangerous losing the Student ID card would be.
While pondering, he took a seat among the Sports Students.
He stirred the food with his chopsticks, checking if anything with Tomato Elent had been mixed in, before starting to eat quickly.
As he ate, he mulled over the two sentences Xu Shunkang had ntioned.
[Nightti is their turf.]
[Dayti is our turf.]
It was obvious that the combat capabilities of Sports Students were greatly affected by the environnt, or in other words…
the strength of all of them was roughly the sa, but day and night brought with them certain special buffs, which would weaken or enhance a particular trait.
“Night…or rather, a night accompanied by rain and fog?”
At one mont, he even felt that even if he really managed to find Xu Shunkang in the Student Cafeteria, Xu Shunkang might not help him as he did at noon.
From beginning to end, Xu Shunkang only showed him goodwill, but that goodwill was devoid of any saintly compassion.
This was evident from when Xu Shunkang subconsciously gripped his baseball bat tighter when he realized Lin Yi was charging at him.
“It’s strange…how co so many dense details suddenly surfaced in my mind?” Lin Yi pondered internally, feeling his mory was in so odd state.
Sotis, there were monts that felt like he had lost a few seconds of mory;
Sotis, it felt like he had walked a long distance in another world, only to co back and realize the watch had only moved a minute or two;
Sotis…
he could rember in crystal clear detail so things that had barely caught the corner of his eye.
He felt sothing uncontrollable was happening to him.
This change might have started the mont he set foot in S City University, and he hadn’t noticed it then, but as ti passed, he beca more aware of these subtle changes.
Just as Tian Bufan had said, he might be “adapting” to sothing.
But…
“What exactly am I ‘adapting’ to?”
“Why does Young Master Tian know more than I do?”
“Could it be that I told him sothing, but…
I’ve forgotten it myself?”
For a mont, he thought of many things, but the more he thought, the more confused he beca, eventually deciding to put aside these thoughts and to ask Tian Bufan when he got back to the dorm at night.
He continued to eat, then glanced again at Wei Liang.
Wei Liang was devouring his food with gusto, as if he could continue to act carefree as long as he didn’t perish.
He sighed, but thought his decision was probably not an issue.
Decisiveness was necessary because the more critical the mont, the more hesitation would cause him to miss more opportunities.
Right now, there was only one thing that mattered—finishing the al and escaping the Cafeteria area.
He shoveled the food hurriedly, and the al proceeded without too much trouble.
He guessed this was either because they had genuinely not touched any food relating to Tomato Elent, or it was because they were sitting right next to the Sports Students.
Suddenly…
One of the Sports Students finished eating and stood up, followed by several others who also rose to their feet.
“Whoa?!
They’re leaving!”
Lin Yi and Wei Liang quickly exchanged looks…well, Wei Liang was still shoveling his green pepper beef rice.
He kicked Wei Liang’s foot.
Wei Liang quickly caught on, swallowed his food in one gulp, and sat up straight.
