134: Chapter 61 It’s Not Easy to Catch a Fish_2 134: Chapter 61 It’s Not Easy to Catch a Fish_2 Lin Yi felt the flow of the Mist and heard a rustling noise behind him as if sothing was coming toward him!
“Damn it, can’t things ever go smoothly?”
Clenching his teeth, Lin Yi walked towards the horoom teacher.
“Cut the crap!” The horoom teacher extended an unnaturally pale hand, grabbed Lin Yi by the wrist, and pulled him into the office!
The mont the horoom teacher grasped his wrist, Lin Yi was shocked!
A chilling sensation stread from the palm, painfully stinging his hand.
He felt the blood in his wrist start to freeze.
Lin Yi: “This…?!
There’s definitely sothing wrong with the teacher!”
At the sa ti, his body crossed the threshold of the office door and he entered the room!
This was his second ti entering the office, and as his body crossed the threshold, a subtle sense of discomfort unfurled silently from within the depths of the office.
After experiencing the transition from space A to space B multiple tis, he once again clearly sensed that change stemming from a “spatial position”!
“Is the office another separate space?” Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat as this revelation unraveled so of his confusion!
No wonder the sounds behind the door seed male when Tian Bufan and others knocked, but when he knocked, he heard a female voice from inside the office!
(Note: Before Lin Yi or anyone else entered the office for the first ti, they subconsciously assud it was a shared office, with different teachers answering the door at different tis.
But this notion was shattered the mont they entered, as the office was ant for a single person.)
No wonder there was no one in the office when he entered!
The relationship between this office and its door wasn’t simply a matter of one key matching one lock!
Before the door was opened, who knew what lay behind it?!
Before he could think any further, the office door slamd shut with a “bang!”
The whole office was now an enclosed space, the overhead incandescent light was constantly on, but the depths were dreadfully dim, as if there was an area even light couldn’t reach in this not-so-large space.
The atmosphere in the office felt as oppressive as a long-sealed cellar.
At that mont, the horoom teacher’s voice slowly rose, “I have no malice.”
Lin Yi said solemnly, “Malice or not, Teacher, shouldn’t you let go of my hand first?”
The horoom teacher was briefly startled and awkwardly released the grip on Lin Yi’s wrist.
Lin Yi rotated his wrist and took a sharp breath.
“That was painfully cold…”
He sneakily glanced at the ti on his wristwatch and then at the clock on the office wall.
19:03.
Until now…
things were slightly abnormal.
Just then, a violent thumping sound ca from outside the door.
Then, the door began to be pounded with “bang bang bang.”
“Teacher!
Teacher…
Teacher…”
“Bang bang bang…”
“Bang bang bang…”
“Bang bang bang…”
Soone outside was calling out while ferociously banging on the door as if a tempest was crashing against glass.
Feeling the impact on the door, Lin Yi’s face showed a look of shock.
Then he noticed…
there was a peephole on the door to observe the outside!
He was startled and suddenly realized why the teacher had opened the door right after he knocked—was it because the teacher had been watching through the peephole all this ti?!
How long had she been watching?
How much willpower would it take to watch for so long?!
This strange behavior instantly made Lin Yi feel uneasy—abnormal, too abnormal!
It was as if…
the horoom teacher was deliberately lying in wait.
And he was the rabbit.
He stared at the teacher’s overly pale arm, squinted his eyes, then pointed at the door and tentatively asked, “The thing outside…
it’s not attacking , is it?
It wants to charge into the office, right?”
The horoom teacher looked at Lin Yi, eyes gradually narrowing, “That’s right.”
Lin Yi sighed in his heart, “So, you lured into the office…
by using my desire to report the cafeteria chefs’ numbers to you.”
The horoom teacher ambiguously replied, “Correct…
and incorrect.”
“Firstly, I wasn’t sure if you were here to report the chefs’ numbers.”
“Secondly, even if you weren’t, it wouldn’t affect anything.”
At the end, she added, “Catching a fish is not that easy.”
Lin Yi: “…”
“Anyway…” Lin Yi spread his hands, “I’ll leave after I finish reporting.”
The horoom teacher smiled, not saying a word, turned around, and walked towards her desk, leaving Lin Yi with a beautiful view of her back.
Lin Yi noticed that the teacher’s pace seed stiffer than it had been in the morning.
Seizing the mont, he quickly scanned the entire office environnt.
Compared to his last visit, the office was obviously much ssier; papers crumpled on the floor, their presence no longer confined to areas easily overseen.
“Teacher, haven’t you changed your stockings?” Lin Yi suddenly spoke up.
The horoom teacher was taken aback, glanced at her thighs, then raised an eyebrow, sizing up Lin Yi with interest, “You’re quite observant…
but surely you’re not only focusing on these things, right?”
Lin Yi did not respond.
The horoom teacher walked to her desk, opened a folder, and while flipping through docunts spoke, “Tore after putting them on, couldn’t be bothered to change…
Report your na and student number first.”
“Lin Yi, X023050609…” He noticed the teacher seed to find his page, so he correctly finished the last digit, “…8.”
The horoom teacher closed the folder, set it aside, then opened a drawer and pulled out a stack of A4 paper from the cluttered pile of files on the desk.
“You just ntioned you needed to report a chef’s number?”
“Yes.”
“Write it down.”
Lin Yi was slightly taken aback, then nodded, “Okay.”
He stepped forward and picked up the pen given by the horoom teacher.
It was a chro-plated fountain pen, wound with an alloy circle on its dark blue barrel, cool to the touch.
He uncapped the pen and began to write the chef’s badge number on his fingertip:
“Chef-0391.”
After a mont of thought, he added:
“Chef-0154.”
The horoom teacher asked with curiosity, “Why are there two numbers?”
Lin Yi explained, “The first ti I didn’t get it right, and the second ti wasn’t right either, so I recorded both.”
“Hmm…
You did the right thing.” The horoom teacher collected the paper, then pointed to the remaining sheets, “Write another copy.”
“What?” Lin Yi was stunned but complied nonetheless.
As he was writing, the horoom teacher suddenly asked out of the blue, “Lin Yi, what color do you see the ink you’re writing with?”
Lin Yi was taken aback and looked down.
The blue ink strokes on the paper under the incandescent light took on a pathologically twisted appearance, revealing a touch of green light in the distortion.
Lin Yi was startled, a fine sweat forming on his forehead.
He stared intently, the sense of distortion vanished, and the blue ink strokes on his fingertip read properly: “Chef-0391, Chef-0154.”
“It’s blue, teacher, can’t you see it?”
He showed an innocent and perplexed expression, looking towards the horoom teacher.
“Of course, it’s blue.” The horoom teacher stated confidently, but a faint glimr of gold light quietly vanished in the depths of her eyes.
“Teacher, my report is complete, I will be leaving now.” Lin Yi said and turned to leave.
However, just as he had turned his back halfway, about to expose his back to the horoom teacher, a chilling breath too cold to describe with words, suddenly surged towards him like an overwhelming tidal wave from the direction of the horoom teacher.
‘Huff…
huff—’
A layer of white mist suddenly appeared in the office, as if the door to the office had been opened at that instant, and the cold draught that spilled from the crack of the door…
