Chapter 471 Mysterious Campus (12)
Long Xiaoyu responded according to the rules: "It's just an ordinary teaching aid, don't ask too many questions."
Xia Yue was not repelled by this cold attitude. She continued:
"Teacher Long, I feel like you're different from other teachers. Your classes are so lively, I'm completely captivated. Do you have any unique teaching methods?"
Long Xiaoyu paused with the pen in his hand, looked up at her for a second, then lowered his head again, "Just do your own thing, there are no need to worry about so many problems."
After everything was packed, she walked up to Long Xiaoyu and said sweetly:
"Teacher Long, everything is sorted. Is there anything else you need my help with? I'd be happy to help."
Long Xiaoyu nodded, took out a book with a strange pattern on the cover from the drawer and handed it to her, whispering:
"Hold it, don't lose it."
Xia Yueke took the book and couldn't help asking, "Teacher Long, this one looks so special. What's its name?"
Long Xiaoyu frowned and said, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Let's go."
Although Xia Yueke felt a little disappointed, she still held the book tightly and left the office.
After leaving the office, she took just one step and actually walked out of the new teaching building. When she reached the entrance, Xia Yueke looked down at the time and found that it was already half past three, which was exactly the time for school to be over. No wonder she had timed it so accurately.
And there was only one last place she hadn't gone to, and that was the library.
Xia Yueke recited the rules: [Dark shadow in the library: If you see a dark shadow swaying between the shelves in the library, do not chase it. If you already chase it, immediately return to the library entrance and borrow a red-covered book from the administrator. Then sit at the table in the center of the library and open the book until the dark shadow disappears. If you make eye contact with the dark shadow, every day for the next week, enter the library half an hour before closing time and read a history book for one hour.]
Set off on the road to the library.
Xia Yueke stepped into the library with a nervous mood, and the smell of old paper hit her face.
The lights in the museum were dim and swayed gently in the silence, as if they would go out at any time.
She pretended to be calm as she paced between the bookshelves, her eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly. She took each step carefully, and the slight sound of her soles rubbing against the ground was particularly clear in the empty library.
The bookshelf was full of books. Xia Yueke picked one out at random, and her fingertips brushed across the yellowed pages. The handwriting on them was a little blurry.
She looked closely and found that these books were published a long time ago, the earliest ones could even be traced back to hundreds of years ago. Many of them were precious ancient books that were out of print, and their contents involved mysticism, ancient legends, and taboo history.
Xia Yuke thought, since she had already visited the entire library, it would be a waste not to read these books. Moreover, these books were out of print. If she didn't read them, she would be at a great loss. So she took out the book and began to read it seriously.
Those books had very few pages and one could finish reading one in just over ten minutes. After Xia Yueke read two books, she had to go and change them.
However, as she walked deeper into the library, she caught a glimpse of a dark shadow flashing between the bookshelves out of the corner of her eye.
Her heart suddenly tightened, and she was about to turn around and run away, but she found that the black shadow was approaching her quickly.
Xia Yueke originally didn't want to chase her, but the black shadow was getting closer and closer to him, and it seemed that the target was her!
Xia Yueke didn't care about so much anymore and looked up at her. What was unexpected was that the black shadow was the female teacher who brought them in!
At this moment, the female teacher's face was distorted, her originally kind features became hideous and terrifying, her eyes revealed a strange murderous intent, and without saying a word, she pounced on Xia Yueke with her fangs and claws bared.
The sharp nails scratched through the air, making a creepy sound.
Xia Yueke screamed in terror, turned around and ran towards the library exit. In her panic, she knocked over the bookshelf next to her, and the books scattered all over the floor.
While fleeing in a panic, Xia Yueke bumped into someone and almost fell down. When he looked up, he saw that it was a red-haired boy.
"Why are you here?"
Xia Yueke was surprised and happy, her voice trembling slightly with fear.
The red-haired boy gasped and said, "I just came out from somewhere else and wanted to come to the library to take a look. I didn't expect to run into you!"
Before the two of them could say a few more words, the female teacher's gloomy figure appeared again.
Her figure moved back and forth between the bookshelves like a ghost, and every flash was accompanied by a gust of cold wind.
They had no time to think and could only hide in the library, using bookshelves as cover.
Xia Yueke ran while looking at the time nervously. It was half past four. According to the agreement, they should gather at the school gate.
Just as she was about to run to the school gate, the red-haired boy suddenly grabbed her:
"Wait! If the shadowy figure just now was really that female teacher, wouldn't the school gate be even more dangerous? She might have been waiting for us there!"
Xia Yueke felt a chill in her heart and thought that what he said made sense.
At this moment, the female teacher's sharp scream was heard again, and she appeared in front of the two of them like a ghost, waving her sharp claws and rushing towards them.
At the critical moment, Xia Yueke subconsciously took out the book with strange patterns given by Long Xiaoyu to resist.
With a "bang", a powerful force made Xia Yueke's arm numb, and the impact almost made her unable to hold the book.
But the female teacher's attack was successfully blocked, and her claws left several deep marks on the cover of the book.
The two took the opportunity to hide in a secluded corner, not daring to make a sound.
Xia Yueke looked at the torn book in his hand and thought to himself, it’s a good thing that he had this thing, otherwise he would have been doomed.
It seems that even though Long Xiaoyu lost his memory, he still helped her. It's so touching.
Then outside, the female teacher's footsteps were still clattering, as if she was looking for them. The two of them slowed down their breathing, and they wished they could stop breathing.
An unknown amount of time passed before Xia Yueke checked the time again. It was exactly five o'clock. The library suddenly became quiet. The female teacher seemed to have left...
All games have ended. The system has determined that Xia Yue wins based on the best-of-five format.
When Xia Yueke opened her eyes again, she was back in the spotless white hall.
Cangwu had now returned to his previous cold and aloof appearance, leaning sideways on the armchair.
Seeing that they had returned to normal, he spoke coldly, "Are you all awake?"
Xia Yueke said excitedly: "We won, now we can finally go back, right?"
Cangwu looked at her quietly and nodded, "Okay, you guys go."
Xia Yueke was silent for a moment, but she still asked the question in her heart, "What is that game all about? Where did those people in it come from? Did you capture them all? Can they still get out?"
