Chapter 44 The world is forgetting him
"The basement...?"
The moment he discovered the basement, Lin Yi suddenly felt that the darkness at the end of the corridor seemed to slow down in a strange way. Slowly squirming...
I don't know whether it was because his eyes were attracted or because he was too concerned, but the darkness slowly enlarged in Lin Yi's field of vision, washing out in front of him like ink soaking white paper... …
【It is forbidden to enter the basement of the gymnasium! ! ! 】
At this critical moment, Lin Yi's mind flashed to the huge red font on the gym rules.
「!!!」
A string of extremely impactful exclamation marks in the form of symbols burst out from Lin Yi's forehead like an explosion, and his train of thought was cut off by his own will!
"Me! Damn!"
Lin Yi shook his head, and his eyes were pulled back from the darkness like a knife.
"Huh...huh...huh..."
He took a few big breaths, looked around, and found that he was still in the gym.
He glanced at his watch.
14:35.
"It didn't take long, and it seemed that I was in a daze."
He looked at his feet.
A few steps further will be the white line, which means...
"I was attracted, but not attractive enough..."
"Because Didn’t I cross the line?”
“Is it because of... the special nature of the stadium?”
This white line is the line that divides the areas in the stadium. It is not only the dividing line between the various sections in reality, but also the dividing line between the experience area and the non-experience area on the map.
If you cross this line, you will enter the non-experience area.
Lin Yi didn't know whether it was because his willpower had become much firmer after a period of torture and he was able to pull himself back from the edge of being lost, or because he was in the experience area and was protected by the lights.
Lin Yi personally prefers that his willpower has improved a bit, because the corridor leading to the basement is itself covered with old kerosene lamps.
The light of the kerosene lamp is like a field, and also like a seal, suppressing the darkness of the basement so that it cannot spread.
Lin Yi withdrew his gaze from the corridor and looked at the row of old kerosene lamps.
There is something like a candle in the old kerosene lamp, like a flame or a firefly. They gather and disperse. It does not seem to be a flame, but at a certain stage it is more like a flame.
Obviously it was in the corridor of the gymnasium without wind and rain, but the candle flame kept swaying, as if it was being blown by the cold wind.
"It seems you have noticed it too." A plain voice suddenly sounded next to Lin Yi.
Immediately afterwards, a tall and muscular figure walked out from his side and stood side by side with him.
This familiar voice made Lin Yi's soul tremble. He turned his head in surprise. The person standing next to him was indeed...
"Master Tian?!"
Lin Yi Surprised and delighted, the person standing next to him was Tian Bufan.
“Eh~” Tian Bufan waved his hand in disgust, “There’s no need to talk about meeting again after a long separation... Physical education class is not for chatting, so I came over in advance to meet you.”< br>
Lin Yi looked surprised and said: "Are you so sure that I will come here?"
"Not only am I sure that you will come, I am also sure that you will come to this place at this time." Tian Bufan's eyes fell on the old kerosene lamp in the corridor and said calmly, "Don't be surprised, just ask for a A simple thought is enough to make a reasonable prediction."
He said slowly: "Based on my understanding of you, after entering a strange environment, you will usually be in a place that you think is 'safe'. Stop and familiarize yourself with the environment. "
"Compared with the stadium rules that are already in your hand and can be read at any time, you will definitely observe the environment by comparing the map. "
"So just do a simple elimination method, and I know you are here."
Lin Yi opened his mouth. Although what Tian Bufan said was very simple, he still had to predict the time and location of his appearance. , is it too outrageous?
He immediately felt like he was being manipulated - even though he had been manipulated many times in normal times, this was still too outrageous.
"Although but...how did you know that I happened to be in physical education class at this time?" Lin Yi slowly expressed his doubts, "You guessed it right?"
Instead of It was definitely impossible for him to predict Tian Bufan's position so accurately. On the contrary, it was more likely that the blind cat would hit the right mouse.
"Guess?" Tian Bufan raised his eyebrows, "This kind of thing that requires binding results and luck has never been within my scope of consideration."
"Uh..." Lin Yi felt that he was despised.
"I found that all classes in the school have physical education classes at this time, so you must appear at this time and at this place." Tian Bufan said.
"Okay." Lin Yi felt that he was gradually being crushed by Tian Bufan, so he spread his hands, "So, you come to talk to me in advance?"
"I just said , time does not allow, so we can’t chat for a few words,” Tian Bufan said, “Physical education class has its own reason. If it is just for chatting, we can also chat in the teaching building... Of course, the premise is that we can find it. The other person’s classroom, and don’t accidentally go to the wrong class.”
“But considering the strict regulations on going up and down the stairs in the teaching building, coupled with some other factors, it is easy to make mistakes accidentally. So it’s better that you and I don’t meet in the teaching building unless necessary.”
“It’s best not to even know the other person’s classroom and student ID number, so as not to accidentally get distracted when your mind is confused. Show the other party’s classroom number or student ID, and then get out of the error.”
Lin Yi couldn't help but ponder: "So...you took the initiative to come to me. Do you have any very important information to tell me?"
He had a lot of information that he wanted to exchange with Tian Bufan, but Tian Bufan Now it is obvious that he just wants to meet him - it seems that he wants to see if he is dead or alive first.
So Lin Yi gave the initiative of speaking to Tian Bufan.
Tian Bufan narrowed his eyes, and there was a faint flash of sharpness in his eyes: "I came to you to tell you... something happened to Mao Zi."
Lin Yi's heart tightened, he No clues related to Mao Feiyang have been found yet. Tian Bufan has already concluded that something is wrong with Mao Feiyang?
"How do you know?"
"Because...I found that I am losing my memory about Maozi. This is illogical. Such a thing as 'forgetting' will never happen to me." Tian Bufan said seriously.
"You mean, you have lost your memory?" Lin Yi said in surprise.
“Amnesia is not remembering anything, which is obviously not suitable for my situation.”
“Then... Alzheimer’s disease?”
Tian Bufan: "?"
"It's hard to imagine that you can say such things with your IQ... It seems that you have 'restrained' too much in order not to be affected by the environment."
< br>"So..." Tian Bufan touched his eyebrows and looked quite embarrassed, "With your current IQ, it is difficult for me to explain to you... If not, let's wait until we get to the dormitory at night."
Hearing what Tian Bufan said, Lin Yi did not show any displeasure.
"You said... you are forgetting Mao Zi?"
"Can you try to remember him?" Tian Bufan said, "You should have known this, but you restrained yourself too much." The problem..." Lin Yi struggled, "If there was no Liangzi last night, I might not have time to 'adapt' before something big goes wrong." "Your flaw is that you need to 'adapt', but your advantage is also that you can 'adapt'. '." Tian Bufan said, "Besides, sometimes it's not that you are not 'restrained' enough, but that you are too sensitive to changes in the environment..."
"You I feel so much more than others."
Lin Yi lowered his eyes slightly and said, "I want to think about Mao Zi..."
He tried to recall things related to Mao Feiyang, and found that the recent events were still very impressive, but the further back in time, the blurr his memory became.
He showed a surprised look: "I am also losing the memory related to Maozi!"
"It's not just you, I think others are about the same." Tian Bufan said.
Lin Yi asked: "How could this be? Is it related to that stairwell?"
"It must be related." Tian Bufan nodded, "I still can't infer that Mao Zi The location information, considering the weirdness of this campus itself, we should have lost contact with Maozi.”
"More than that... I feel that the world is 'forgetting' Maozi."
"Why?"
Tian Bufan said solemnly: "There is no 'why', no 'how' , only 'this is'."
Lin Yi was stunned and felt pressure rolling in.
Tian Bufan said: "I can't tell yet whether there is an indescribable 'rule' that is tampering with our memories, but one thing is certain, Maozi is leaving us."
"Do you know what the most terrifying thing in life is?"
"Is it death, no, it's not."
"It's 'forgetting', that is more terrifying than death Something."
"'There is no way back for the forgotten'"
"If the whole world forgets Maozi and he is lost in that stairwell, it will be an eternal exile. What’s the difference?”
Lin Yi gritted his teeth and said: "We have to rescue him."
Tian Bufan sneered: "It's ridiculous."
"What did you say?" Lin Yi glared at Tian Bufan, "He is Our roommate!"
Tian Bufan shook his head: "Impulse will make people lose their minds. Calmness is the way to solve the problem."
"What kind of rescue are you talking about with empty words? You don’t even know where he is.”
"I..." Lin Yi opened his mouth but was speechless on the spot.
"I went to look for the stairwell." Tian Bufan shook his head scornfully, "It's ridiculous, there is no stairwell at all!"
"The one in front of the teaching building The notice board says that turning left when going out of the stairwell is the teacher's office. "
"But turning right when going out of the classroom office is the classroom. "
"If the classroom is used as a reference, then the classroom is. Stairwell.”
"But... we arrived at the door of the same teacher's office. After entering and opening the door again, I didn't see you."
"So I suspect that the location of the teacher's office has been changing."
“Behind that door is a, no, a teacher’s office with activity.”
“So after we enter and leave, we will appear at the door of different classrooms.”
Lin Yi thought for a while, and then said: "What you mean is that if the teacher's office is an independent building structure inside the teaching building and also carries out certain periodic activities, we can use the teacher's office as a building structure. For the transfer station, go back to the place where you go out and turn right to the stairwell?”
Tian Bufan glanced at Lin Yi and had no doubts about Lin Yi's fluctuating IQ. He nodded and said, "That's pretty much what it means, but I have too little information about the teacher's office."
"Student Code And the teaching building code does not mention the teacher's office at all."
"There is only one thing that is not mentioned in the code."
"That is this thing. It is beyond the control of the person who made the rules."
"None of us should make any tentative moves in the teacher's office before we are absolutely sure."
"After all... I feel that the 'head teacher' is not normal."
Tian Bufan said slowly.
Lin Yi muttered: "My head teacher also has a big problem..."
"We will consider the head teacher's problem later." Tian Bufan raised his hand to interrupt, "The most important point right now is I have just conveyed it, and what I am concerned about is... how are you adapting?"
"How is your restraint?"
"You still need to exercise restraint... I thought it was safe enough under the sun, but I still encountered a lot of trouble." Lin Yi shook his head.
"'Under the sun'? Such an intuitive clue does not seem like something you have inferred."
"The sports student told me that you can think as much as you want under the sun."
"Haha." Tian Bufan smiled, "You are lucky, there are sports students to remind you of such things."
"Where are you?" Lin Yi asked.
Tian Bufan shrugged: "Last night, the physical education students got into a fight with the art students in the classroom."
"A fight? Art students?" Lin Yi was shocked, "No, the physical education students were not in 21 "Leave the classroom before midnight?"
"Who told you to leave? Well..." Tian Bufan suddenly said in thought, "Did the sports student who reminded you that you can think under the sun tell you?"
"Yes." Lin Yi nodded.
“What else did he say?”
Lin Yi hesitated and said, "Can I tell you? Will it make you overthink and cause problems?"
Tian Bufan glanced at him: "I can tell you. But... Judging from your tone, even though you are restrained enough, you still stepped on a lot of thunder?"
"Uh..." Lin Yi looked embarrassed and couldn't help scratching his head, "Without Liangzi, maybe... ...I will also be forgotten by the world.”
He thought about the non-existent road, which really looked like walking on the desolate and empty land.
Tian Bufan raised his eyebrows. It was clear that Lin Yi seemed to have suffered a life-or-death disaster, but when he heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly: "It's interesting...I I am very interested in what you have experienced in the past two days.”
"But this is not urgent. We will discuss it in detail when we get to the dormitory in the evening."
"Now I want to hear first... what the sports student told you."
