When the thermos was brought back into the house, the Mirror Ghost did not appear.
Yin Zhu filled the thermos with water, and she and Teacher Xiao left the dormitory without saying a word to each other to wake up the children in the children's dormitory. Then they took their children to have breakfast.
When she entered the cafeteria, Yin Zhu noticed that she had been assigned to Class 2.
"Oh, Ms. Huang, what a coincidence! We're in the same class!" Yin Zhu greeted her with a smile.
Although she knew her name was just a code, the thought of a woman using such a name filled Yin Zhu with interest as she looked at Teacher Huang—Huang Feihong, it was indeed a very imposing name. Why didn't she give herself a name like Yin Aotian back then?
When it comes to antics, even a chosen one carrying the future of the Dragon Kingdom has lost to the natives of this bizarre world.
I have truly let down the Dragon Kingdom!
Completely unaware of the wild thoughts in Yin Zhu's mind, Teacher Huang, whose eyes were dark and swollen, forced a smile at Yin Zhu and said, "Good morning... yawn."
Yin Zhu also noticed her poor mental state; she looked exhausted and clearly hadn't slept well.
There are many people like Teacher Huang in the cafeteria.
Although the adults were listless, they were still somewhat energetic. The children were in even worse condition; some even ate with their eyes closed, not noticing when the porridge spilled from their spoons, leaving a large, sticky, white, thick puddle on the ground.
"You guys have terrible sleep. What happened last night?" Yin Zhu laughed without a care in the world, as if she hadn't done anything.
"Didn't you hear me?" Teacher Huang was taken aback.
"Ah, I've always slept very well. I fall asleep as soon as my head hits the bed." Yin Zhu even brought up her childhood experience to convince the other party, "When I was a child, someone was using an electric drill to repair a door, and I fell asleep immediately. When I woke up, my parents were wondering how I could sleep with all that noise."
Later, when I grew up, I looked up some information about this and learned that people can't hear external sounds when they are in deep sleep... If there were any noises last night, I really couldn't hear them.
This isn't entirely untrue; the childhood experiences were indeed real, but they were based on trust in one's parents.
Because she trusted her family enough, young Yin Zhu was able to sleep very soundly, believing that she would not be in any danger while she was asleep.
However, since Yin Zhu became independent, she went to the capital to work as a "Beijing drifter," inevitably having to live alone. Later, after returning to Haicheng and finding a job, she continued to live independently. Since she was single and living alone, she needed to be more vigilant to avoid encountering bad people or thieves, and she hadn't slept soundly for a long time.
This is why Yin Zhu would wake up if a thief touched the mirror while she was sleeping in Jiayuan Community.
In that unregulated place, Yin Zhu couldn't sleep peacefully. Who knew if some dangerous individuals would attack her at night, murdering and robbing her?
Hearing about Yin Zhu's comfortable and restful sleep, Teacher Huang couldn't help but feel envious: "Sigh, don't even mention it."
Last night, I don't know what happened, there was a lot of loud knocking on the door. Normally, it doesn't stay long; it just circles around, randomly knocks on a few doors to see if anyone's asleep. But last night, it was like it wanted to kill someone, constantly banging on the door.
Yes, he might really want to kill someone.
Yin Zhu had serious doubts.
"It started knocking on that door, then it started knocking on other doors. It kept going on and on until after 4 a.m. before it finally left, and I was finally able to get some sleep," Teacher Huang said, yawning several times in succession.
"Does that monster come knocking on the door every day? That must be really annoying." Yin Zhu showed an expression of deep sympathy.
"It's not every day... Anyway, you can't open the door. I don't know what got into it yesterday, it was knocking on doors everywhere and was quite irritable. Surely no one provoked it, right?" Teacher Huang made a casual guess.
"That sounds dangerous." Yin Zhu looked frightened.
Teacher Huang waved her hand: "Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore. Let me check if all the children are here. You take them to wash their hands."
These two points are also stipulated in the faculty and staff code of conduct.
[Mealtime Section 2. Before and after each meal, please count the number of children to prevent any children from getting lost or missing mealtimes due to playing.]
[Mealtime Tip 3. Before meals, take your child to wash their hands and teach them to roll up their sleeves to avoid getting them wet. Use hand sanitizer and thoroughly rinse both palms and backs of hands to prevent ingestion of soap and potential gastrointestinal upset.]
However, it's worth noting that there's an additional supplement to [Dining Part 3]:
If a non-transparent liquid comes out of the faucet, it may be due to rust breaking off from the water pipes due to age. Simply turn the faucet off for five minutes and then turn it back on.
...
"Speaking of which, I remember the rules said that some colored, unidentified liquids might come out of the tap."
"Yes, there is such a rule, I remember it too."
"Rust is red, so could it actually be blood? And they said it was rust to avoid scaring the workers."
"The person upstairs didn't consider the possibility of liquid dilution. Even if there is rust in the pipes, it will only turn yellow at most after being diluted by tap water. If there is really bleeding, you can tell at a glance that it is different."
"Blood has viscosity and a bloody smell, so you can definitely tell at a glance that it is very different from normal water."
"Compared to the liquid flowing inside, isn't the most bizarre thing the way to deal with it? They actually told us to turn off the tap for five minutes. Shouldn't you usually flush the water to wash away the filth as quickly as possible when something strange comes out of the pipes?"
"That's right, I've wanted to say that for a long time."
"This counterintuitive rule is definitely problematic, but we don't know exactly what the problem is."
"Stop making noise, come and see Yin Zhu washing the kids' hands!"
"I'm a little afraid to look..."
"What? Nothing unusual happened at all!"
"Wait a little longer"
"Who are you waiting for? They've all gone back to eat."
Yin Zhu followed the instructions step by step. After Teacher Huang finished counting the children, Yin Zhu led them to the sink next to the kitchen, washed their hands, and returned to their seats, quietly waiting for them to eat.
As the children took their seats one by one, Yin Zhu and Teacher Huang served each child their meal before it was their turn to eat.
The only sound in the cafeteria for a while was the clinking of cutlery against the rim of bowls; there was no chatter from children or adults.
Is this quiet enough?
[Mealtime Section 4. When children are eating, it is essential to maintain a sufficiently quiet dining environment so that they can concentrate on eating happily and finish their food within the allotted time to avoid affecting their subsequent lessons.]
If a child is eating noisily in the cafeteria, please gently stop them to avoid affecting the other children's eating experience. If the child continues to be disruptive, please take them directly to the meditation room so they can reflect on their behavior.
