Chapter 1084: Chapter 508: Farewell, Homeroom Teacher 040 (Part 2)

At the same time, the cat-eye “click” opened, and Class Teacher-040 looked through the cat-eye, seeing him and also the surrounding Graveyard of the Deceased.

The pupils slightly contracted.

“Lin Yi? You…?!

Seeing Class Teacher-040 still hesitating, Lin Yi knew that just reporting his identity might not be enough, he had to come up with something else.

The crucial point is that this is not Dream Building, if hit by a big move and dragged into time, it would be impossible to foresee what terrible things might happen, he couldn’t give Graveyard of the Deceased any opportunity, so he hurriedly shouted: “Teacher, you forgot, I helped you heal, you had a big wound on your back…”

“Click!”

The door opened, Class Teacher-040 extended a hand from behind the door, grabbed him by the collar, and dragged him into the office.

It was the first time Lin Yi realized how strong Class Teacher-040 was, he was unexpectedly lifted like a chick.

As he entered the doorway, the chants of the Graveyard of the Deceased seemed to be filtered out, weakening clearly.

A fragrant breeze hit Lin Yi’s cheek, through the office lights, he saw that Class Teacher-040 had changed into that body-hugging combat suit.

This type of suit is woven from some unknown extraordinary material, offering high protection while also blocking others’ perceptive detection. The only way to detect the wearer is through direct observation.

Due to the urgency of coming in, he had no time to observe Class Teacher-040’s entire equipment, he could only see a nearly perfect figure enlarging in front of him.

It got his blood boiling, as if he was prepared for Class Teacher-040 to pull him close…

And just as he relaxed, Class Teacher-040 suddenly brought him in front of her with a Tai Chi Cloud Hand, but the subsequent development was different from what Lin Yi expected. What greeted him was not Class Teacher-040’s dispelling force, but rather Class Teacher-040’s foot.

The foot wrapped in the combat suit kicked his waist like lightning, and the next moment Lin Yi was thrown out like a sandbag…

“Ow, my kidneys…”

Class Teacher-040 didn’t pay him much attention, and before the Graveyard of the Deceased could follow up, she slammed the office door shut.

“Bang!!”

The door closed heavily, the entire office felt like a bunker with its only passage blocked by a thick stone slab, completely isolating the outside situation, making the not-so-large office seem like the only refuge.

With the closing door, the office lights adjusted and became bright.

Lin Yi supporting his old waist with one hand, and the wall with the other, hissing “my kidneys” repeatedly as he slowly stood up.

Through the gradually brightening lights, he finally saw Class Teacher-040’s current full equipment.

Her combat suit looked like a purplish-black gradient tight outfit with some tech-inspired stripes, like an advanced version of suits seen in “EVA”.

But unlike those, Class Teacher-040 now wore indiscernible headgear that could either be a mask or helmet, like the helmets in Kamen Rider specials, yet overall more exquisite, also featuring techy designs, particularly the cat ear-like design atop the helmet, which added a damn girlish touch to it.

As the door shut, Class Teacher-040 lightly touched the helmet, which silently decomposed like nanotechnology, eventually turning into the gold-rimmed glasses resting on her nose.

“Stop pretending, with your body, you could probably regenerate even if your kidneys were slashed out?” Class Teacher-040 sneered repeatedly.

Lin Yi continued massaging the kidney area, remarking, “I have illusionary pain in the phantom limb…”

As he spoke, he glanced over Class Teacher-040’s legs under the combat suit, silently wondering if people with physical advantages love to kick others, just like the Boss, and now Class Teacher-040 too…

Class Teacher-040 seemed indifferent to Lin Yi’s gaze, as this was a standard combat suit designed for combat efficiency, avoiding any hindrance.

Frankly, the male version was similarly somewhat embarrassing.

But it must be said, the functionality was top-notch.

She gently tucked some loose strands of hair behind her ear, “At times like this, letting you inside is doing you a favor, and you still want to take advantage?”

“What do you mean take advantage?” Lin Yi argued, “Aren’t you the one who told me to notify you before leaving? I’ve been following the procedure!”

Class Teacher-040’s expression slightly shifted, “You’re leaving? So soon?”

She glanced at the wall clock, then fell silent.

“20:05,” Lin Yi also glanced, checking against his watch, continuing, “Considering the risks of traveling under abnormal weather, the usual 15-minute route might face all sorts of obstacles, so I assess the time isn’t early anymore…”

“Saying goodbye now and leaving, the timing should be about right.”

“Returning to the dormitory in this weather… is very risky.” Although the abnormal weather wasn’t originally in Class Teacher-040’s consideration, when Lin Yi mentioned it “as planned,” Class Teacher-040 surprisingly showed no intent to stop him.

Lin Yi nodded, “It’s foreseeable, those few steps I almost got dragged over by the Graveyard of the Deceased to sing and dance rap.”

Class Teacher-040’s eyelids lowered, “Actually, there’s another way to ensure you live till tomorrow, one hundred percent…”

“Wait, you mean if I go back to the dormitory, I’m doomed?” Lin Yi asked.

Class Teacher-040 pursed her lips, “If it’s just slightly bad weather without rain, your chances of safely returning to the dormitory are still fairly high, but now, that probability might drop by half…”

Lin Yi’s eyes lit up, “Drop by half…? 50%! That’s still quite high!”

Class Teacher-040 was speechless, “Come on, it wasn’t a full chance at first, with unusual weather but no rain, you had a 60% chance to return safely, now halved, it’s less than 30%…”

“30%… that’s still quite high.” Lin Yi’s voice lowered somewhat.

Class Teacher-040 looked at Lin Yi, “Are you not considering the method I mentioned to ensure you’d be alive tomorrow?”

Lin Yi slightly shook his head, “But… my fundamental goal is to return to the dormitory! No matter what happens tonight, I must return to the dormitory, so… there’s no need for persuasion. Teacher, do you have any other constructive things to say?”

Class Teacher-040 pursed her lips, knowing Lin Yi’s determination, therefore said: “Actually, I have no more advice to give, the next things you plan to do will go beyond what help I can offer.”

“The reason I asked you to come is to tell you that on your way back to the dormitory building, if you encounter an unsolvable dilemma, wait by the streetlight poles for the security guard, but the security guard will take you to all other buildings except the dormitory building…”

“If you insist on returning to the dormitory building, do not accompany the security guard.”

After Class Teacher-040 finished speaking, she didn’t continue, so Lin Yi asked: “And second?”

Class Teacher-040 glared at him: “There’s no second.”

“Oh…” Lin Yi said, pointing to the door, “Then I’m leaving?”

“Are you leaving now?” Class Teacher-040 asked.

Lin Yi was startled, “In this weather, if I don’t leave now, are you inviting me for tea…?”

Class Teacher-040 said, “Those four newcomers, you’ve met them, right, any thoughts to share with me?”

Lin Yi thought, what’s there to say, you’ll know when you meet them, but thought perhaps Class Teacher-040 already anticipated something might happen between them.

Perhaps “second” was about knowing if he’d had any friction with them?

“Did you anticipate that?”
