Chapter 268: Reunion
"Um?"
The falling note was a sick leave note.
It was not approved because I did not apply for leave in advance.
It was a ridiculous reason, but Lin Jiu's attention was on the student who took sick leave.
Tang Yu.
Lin Jiu immediately thought of the NPC in the previous copy.
The possibility of having the same name is not high...
Come to think of it, those two girls went traveling not long after graduating from high school, and the grade on the note was Class 3 of Grade 3. Does that mean the timeline of this copy is in the past?
Lin Jiu shook the roll call list in his hand.
Several more leave notes floated down from inside, and Tang Yu's name appeared unusually frequently, five times in total. Only two of them were from other people, and one was from Ye Sisi.
None of these leave requests were approved.
[Hicks, a player from the British Empire, has discovered a 1/6 bonus rule and is announcing it....]
【1. When the bell rings, do not move.】
The game system's cold prompt sounded, and Lin Jiu put down the roll call and note in his hand, briefly focusing his attention on the newly emerged rules.
Don't move when the bell rings....Additional rules....
Lin Jiu narrowed his eyes and continued searching.
But before the search had lasted long, a bright light appeared in the corridor outside the office, flickering and accompanied by the sound of footsteps.
Without any hesitation, Lin Jiu squatted down.
The security guard outside stopped at the office door. The flashlight was almost lighting up the office. A gun appeared in Lin Jiu's hand.
After about ten seconds, the security guard left.
Lin Jiu did not get up immediately, but waited for a while on purpose.
In just a short while, the security guard returned along the same route and suddenly appeared at the office door, but he still did not enter.
The security guard left again, and Lin Jiu still chose to wait for a moment. After a minute, he slowly stood up and continued searching.
At the location where the rules were discovered, Lin Jiu searched carefully.
Tang Yu and Ye Sisi were both in Class 3 of Grade 3. There was a seating chart on the corner of the table, and the two girls were sitting in the back row by the window.
Tang Yu seemed to be frail and sickly. In addition to the leave note, there were also several records of his parents directly requesting leave.
The teacher seemed very dissatisfied with this and did not have a very good personal evaluation of Tang Yu.
Lin Jiu didn't know what the teacher had said, but from the deep scratches on the face, he could tell it wasn't anything nice.
In addition to Tang Yu's personal evaluation, there were more or less traces of cross-outs in the evaluations of other students, and a lot of curse words were written on the back, targeting this teacher.
It seems that something happened behind this school.
Lin Jiu was not very interested in the background story. He felt extremely irritated from the moment he entered the dungeon, but the prompts failed to answer this question.
Unlike before, it was not because of lack of authority to answer, but because of inability to answer.
Lin Jiu thought, something must have happened in the last copy.
[Maple Leaf Country player Basil discovered the 2/6 additional rule and is announcing it...]
【0. All rules must be strictly followed.】
It seems that the rules are being discovered very quickly. Lin Jiu glanced at the countdown and it was exactly the twentieth minute since entering the copy.
Lin Jiu walked out of the office and after a brief thought, decided to go and take a look at Class 3 of Grade 3.
The security guard left the floor and it was safe for the time being, but Lin Jiu did not slow down.
The basic routine of the copy is that the longer the time, the stronger the weirdness. He can't be the one who holds it back, not to mention that his intuition is also clamoring to pass the level quickly.
The sharp whistle sounded again not long after, and then there was no sound at all, which made people feel more oppressive.
It's like there's a beast chasing you from behind.
Lin Jiu came to Class 3 of Grade 3 and went straight to where Tang Yu and Ye Sisi were.
I didn't find any rules note, but I did find a locked diary.
This was not a difficult problem for Lin Jiu. After forcibly opening the diary, Lin Jiu quickly flipped through it.
I started keeping the diary in my second year of high school.
Most of the content is about academic worries and declining learning efficiency due to physical conditions, and the inability to improve grades...
Because the contents were similar, Lin Jiu frowned and turned the pages faster and faster.
until....
【Tang Yu is dead.】
Unlike Tang Yu's small and cute handwriting, another person's handwriting appeared in the diary.
Lin Jiu was almost certain that it was Ye Sisi.
but....
"Dead?" Lin Jiu frowned.
If Tang Yu is already dead at this time, then what about the Tang Yu who appeared in Yinshan Village in the previous copy?
With doubts, Lin Jiu turned to the next page.
【Bullshit utopia.】
Another short sentence, and nothing more after that.
Utopia....
Lin Jiu remembered that he had seen the name of this school before in the office.
Utopia High School.
Um....
Are you sure you want to use this name?
Lin Jiu flipped through the diary again and put it back after confirming that there was nothing else in it.
Ye Sisi didn't find anything useful at her location. The time in the copy seemed to be frozen at a certain moment in the past. For some reason, her schoolbag was there.
[Longguo player Lin Jiu discovered the 4/10 rule and is announcing it...]
【4. You need to apply for sick leave one day in advance.】
[The rules for the third floor, where player Lin Jiu is located, have all been collected, and the entrance and exit have been opened.]
Lin Jiu paused.
There was no follow-up prompt from the game system. Lin Jiu thought about it and decided to go upstairs first.
The progress of unlocking floors is very fast, but the faster the better.
Lin Jiu ran straight to the staircase. The blocked door curtain had disappeared, and he quietly moved to the fourth floor. During his observation, he found that there were three rooms on the fourth floor that were lit. Since they were all on one side, Lin Jiu only needed to walk all the way to take a look.
Basil was in the conference room farthest from the stairs.
When Lin Jiu first entered the meeting room, he didn't see anyone. If it weren't for the prompt that told him that others were hiding, he would have almost turned around and left.
"Basil."
Lin Jiu spoke in a low voice from a distance.
“.......”
No movement.
"....Are you treating me as a fake now?" Lin Jiu spoke again after a brief silence.
The tone wasn't cold, but Basil shuddered inexplicably.
So he stood up.
"The security guard just left not long ago." Basil explained.
It can be said that Lin Jiu appeared as soon as the security guard left.
Although he didn't know why the two parties didn't meet, Basil breathed a sigh of relief the moment he saw Lin Jiu.
"It looks like Hicks is on the second floor."
Lin Jiu glanced out the window and saw that only one room on the second floor was lit. It seemed that Hicks would turn off the lights every time he searched a room.
