Chapter 18: Ghost Wall
There are several classes in the first grade, and in each class there are one or two students who either cheated in the exam or did not pass.
They were gathered together and led by several adults who looked old but still had a gleam in their eyes, and walked out of the campus step by step into the thick fog outside.
The iron gate of the school closed heavily behind them. Yu Tong seemed to wake up suddenly and no longer be in a trance. He looked back frequently in fear until he was blocked by thick fog and could no longer see the iron gate of the campus.
This is also a custom developed in an environment where ghosts are rampant. The long-distance exploration teams sent out every week are led by the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled.
Most of them who survived till now were experienced warriors. If you follow them, you may be sold out at any time.
On the observation tower, Teacher Wen pointed at them and said, "If you don't want to be thrown out, you must study hard and make progress every day."
Today is Sunday, and now that the exam-related activities are over, it is their free time.
After the outgoing team had gone so far away that they could no longer be seen, the two teachers led them down from the observation tower and back to the open space in front of the teaching building, allowing them to get some fresh air before preparing for a new week of study and life.
Lu Jiamu found a pair of parallel bars, supported himself with his legs on the bars, and sat up high.
Because he had just been appointed as the class monitor by Teacher Gao, and looked like the future leader of the kids, many children, familiar and unfamiliar, came running over and no longer called him by his number, but instead called him "class monitor".
Yu Leng stood nearby, looking a little listless, with his blond hair looking wilted.
After the other kids came to talk to Lu Jiamu, he spoke absentmindedly, "I'm only in my second year of high school... When I was in my second year of high school, all I could think about was games and the college entrance exam."
Lu Jiamu said “hmm”.
There was still no expression on his face, and he looked calm and steady, just like when he was studying or taking exams before.
Yu Leng tilted his head: "Are you sad?"
After hearing this, Lu Jiamu habitually wanted to immediately put on an expression of grief, or even pretend to cry on the spot, in order to follow the trend.
But after thinking about it, I felt that if we were going to work together under such conditions for a long time in the future, we would understand each other sooner or later, so there was no need to pretend.
So Lu Jiamu asked back: "Should I feel sad?"
Yu Leng shook his head: "It's not a question of whether or not. We haven't known each other for a few days, and who knows, she might come back."
After a while he said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
This time, seeing Yu Tong being kicked out of school, the one who was hit the hardest was actually Wei Xiaoyan. They had always eaten and slept together, and their numbers were close, so they had a good relationship these days.
Wei Xiaoyan hasn't spoken much since she came back from the observation tower.
Wang Biao felt a little uncomfortable seeing Wei Xiaoyan and Kou Man being so abnormally quiet, so he suggested: "Why don't we let the monitor give them some tutoring. We still have to stay here for more than a week, and we still have an exam to take."
There was a hint of hesitation in Wei Xiaoyan's eyes.
It would be best if someone could help with tutoring, but the number of words she and Lu Jiamu had said to each other could be counted on one hand, and they had hardly communicated at all.
Moreover, she felt that the other party was the kind of person who was not approachable, and she really couldn't think of any reason why he would help her.
“Is this… okay?”
Wang Biao smiled generously: "I'll go and talk to you guys."
When the three people found Lu Jiamu, Lu Jiamu had already peeled off the candy wrapper and started eating the candy.
After hearing Wang Biao's request, Lu Jiamu nodded without hesitation, considering that he didn't have anything else to do and that helping his companions was just a piece of cake. "Which part?"
"Any part is fine." Wang Biao glanced at Wei Xiaoyan, "But her fighting score is the lowest."
Lu Jiamu nodded again and jumped down from the parallel bars.
He was also among the top students in the class in the close combat module. In addition to his keen insight and calm mentality, he also learned the basic skills very well, so it was easy for him to guide Wei Xiaoyan, who failed.
Seeing that he agreed so readily, Wang Biao didn't say much. He ran to the equipment room and dragged out a human-shaped prop sandbag for Wei Xiaoyan to throw and hit at.
Lu Jiamu observed Wei Xiaoyan's movements from beginning to end and put forward suggestions for improvement one by one.
Wang Biao watched the tutoring for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Where is Yu Leng?"
"He went to the bathroom."
After Lu Jiamu answered, he seemed to remember something and switched to another side to hold the sugar.
Yes, Yu Leng said he wanted to go to the toilet more than half an hour ago.
"Why did it take so long?" Wang Biao muttered quietly, "Maybe he forgot to bring paper..."
Lu Jiamu has almost helped Wei Xiaoyan correct her movements, and the rest depends on herself.
Lu Jiamu felt his pocket, felt the paper, and said, "I'll go see him."
Because he was the student with the best grades in the class and the most reliable person, and this happened in broad daylight in the school, Wang Biao had nothing to worry about and did not suggest going with him.
Lu Jiamu walked across the open space and returned to the teaching building, ready to start looking from the bathroom on the first floor.
As soon as he walked into the men's restroom, he saw Yu Leng standing in the middle of the restroom with his back to the door.
Seeing this scene, Lu Jiamu stopped and said, "Yu Leng."
When Yu Leng heard someone calling him, he immediately turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, but his eyes were obviously focused on the wrong place, as if he didn't even see Lu Jiamu who was standing outside.
He shouted, "Don't come in!"
As soon as he saw him standing in the toilet, Lu Jiamu had no intention of going in.
Lu Jiamu asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Yu Leng's voice was a little trembling: "I... I can't find the door. I'm stuck in a maze."
The total area of this small toilet is no more than 30 square meters. The lights are bright and the circuits are normal. How did I get stuck in such a toilet? Can't I get out even if I touch the wall?
This is really...
Interesting, interesting.
Lu Jiamu raised his eyebrows with interest: "Then try walking two steps towards me."
"good."
Yu Leng nodded and obediently took a few steps towards Lu Jiamu. At the moment when he was about to walk out of the toilet, he disappeared and then reappeared from the innermost side of the toilet.
"I'm going through a maze."
Lu Jiamu immediately suggested: "Then you go to the side."
Yu Leng obediently walked to the side and entered one of the toilet cubicles, and then he walked out of the cubicle opposite.
Yu Leng gave a bitter smile: "I can't get out."
"So you are stuck in the middle of the toilet and can't get into the cubicle?" Lu Jiamu changed his side and sucked the candy again, "Try the other side."
Yu Leng walked to the other side to the toilet cubicle, but the moment he opened the door and went in, he appeared on the opposite side again.
After seeing with his own eyes how people were trapped in the toilet, Lu Jiamu sighed softly and curled his eyes.
Yu Leng tilted his head and suddenly asked, "Are you laughing?"
"No. Not me."
