310: Chapter 144: The Upside-Down Green Pocket Chef 310: Chapter 144: The Upside-Down Green Pocket Chef Lin Yi glanced at his own palm, then at Li Huiyuan’s.
After they separated hands, no green mist was seeping out from Li Huiyuan’s side either.
“This is really fucking bizarre…
Did the green mist actually use my hand as an outlet?”
However, what Lin Yi found even more bizarre was Wei Liang.
With a simple “let go of hands,” he had noticed these details.
Lin Yi couldn’t believe it wasn’t intentional.
“Fuck, what are you looking at?
I’ve already covered my ears, what more do you want from ?
Do you want to grow another hand to cover my eyes too?”
Seeing Lin Yi look over, Wei Liang got anxious on the spot, retorted straight away, then pursed his lips and muttered under his breath, “This is infuriating!
Only been in school for a few days, and damn, there’s already a chick tailing him.
Doesn’t he know to bring along his good bros?
I’m still in the theoretical phase here!”
“What are you muttering about, Liangzi?” Lin Yi’s voice ca from the side.
“Muttering my ass!” Wei Liang feigned a roar of flas, startling Lin Yi repeatedly.
“Stop lying to yourself, your hands are leaking air.” Lin Yi looked at him speechlessly, wondering what was the point of Wei Liang covering his ears.
Was he trying to fool himself?
He then turned to Li Huiyuan and continued, “Keep talking, what happened to it?”
Li Huiyuan lowered her voice, “It told to find the convenience store…”
Despite having had suspicions, hearing Li Huiyuan say it out loud still caused Lin Yi’s pupils to slightly contract, and a flood of speculations about the ‘Pocket Chef’ with the blue bib surged in his mind.
But this wasn’t the ti to dwell on this issue, so he quickly asked, “What exactly did it say?”
Li Huiyuan didn’t need to organize her thoughts and spoke directly, “It told to find the convenience store, and to get to the convenience store before being targeted by them, ntioning that the store is in a place inside the cafeteria that isn’t lit by artificial light but has sunlight.”
The language was extrely simple, yet the information was relatively complex, and a bit cryptic.
If this was a day earlier, Lin Yi would have pondered what to make of it, but now he just nodded slightly, pondering for a mont: “Sounds…
interesting, did it say who ‘they’ are?”
“It didn’t say,” Li Huiyuan shook her head, “but I guess it’s the Nocturnal species.”
Lin Yi pondered for a while, then glanced at the Student Cafeteria: “Maybe it’s not just the Nocturnal species, but also…
those chefs in green bibs.”
Li Huiyuan’s mind was shaken, instantly recalling the terror of being chased by the chefs in green bibs, and her face turned pale, “You an…
could they be waiting for inside the Student Cafeteria?”
“I can’t guarantee they’re not there, I haven’t figured out their chanism yet…
What I do know is only two things, first, they will try to put sothing containing Tomato Elent in our food, second, they will chase us once we leave.”
“But Classmate Lin…
I no longer have my Student ID card, in your words, my safety status is now uncertain.”
Lin Yi’s lips slightly tightened: “Let’s take it one step at a ti, at least the words of the Pocket Chef in blue and the horoom teacher agree, so we should try to find the location of the convenience store first.”
A “place without artificial light but with sunlight” seed quite taphysical, but was actually not hard to find.
The only danger lay in searching for the shadowy areas, to avoid any unnecessary Phantom Vision and then falling through the layers.
Li Huiyuan falling through the layers was a certainty, the key was that he didn’t fall through as well.
Even though he believed his cognition had expanded and extended, his Novice Village had also expanded a bit, but in this perilous environnt, this slight expansion was actually not enough.
Like the layer by the poolside of the Gymnasium, every ti he thought of it he would feel a sense of palpitation.
And that nonexistent road, the first ti he had scrambled back in a sorry state was on that road.
“Why don’t you two go first?” Seeing Lin Yi deep in thought, Wei Shan suggested.
Lin Yi looked at Wei Shan with so surprise; he had originally planned to ask Wei Shan about the Nocturnal species while waiting for Tian Bufan, but now the blue bib Pocket Chef’s suggestion to Li Huiyuan seed more urgent.
“I’ll wait here for Young Master Tian with him and see if Yin Bi cos for dinner,” Wei Shan glanced at Wei Liang.
Wei Liang quickly raised both hands over his head in a surrender gesture, “Hey hey hey…
I don’t want to be alone with him.
How about we all go in together?
I’ll eat my food and just find a table to sit at first, you do your thing, and we won’t interfere with each other.”
Lin Yi checked the ti on his watch.
16:10.
The Student Passage was entered at 16:01; adding the ti it took to walk through and the discussion here, the timing seed about right.
And the latest ti he and Tian Bufan had agreed to et for dinner was 18:30.
There were still about two and a half hours left.
Lin Yi looked at Li Huiyuan, who then tried hard to muster a smile, appearing as if she was ready to follow his lead.
Lin Yi let out a deep sigh and decided to follow Wei Shan’s advice, taking Li Huiyuan to the Student Cafeteria to look for the convenience store.
Just as he made up his mind, it was as if he again heard the deep voice of the blue bib Pocket Chef next to his ear, only this ti, it was clearer than before:
[Hurry to the convenience store…]
[You’re late…
it’s getting late…]
[Hurry…]
Lin Yi’s heart clenched tightly; from the literal aning, one couldn’t tell if the Pocket Chef was saying “it’s getting late” or “it’s the end.”
