Ji Le walked to Lacey's side and touched her forehead with his hand.
The touch is very real.
"Don't hide, I will save you, but you have to let me judge whether you are alive first." Ji Le said, and then tried her breathing again.
Warm breath spurted out.
"Test me to see if I'm alive? I can speak and ask for help, so of course I'm alive." Lacey didn't quite understand Ji Le's words.
Ji Le looked at the glasses and Li three people beside them.
"She should be alive. I didn't detect any data flow near here." Glasses Li said.
Bai Bo walked around Lacey and nodded: "I can also confirm that she is alive, unlike us."
Ji Le turned to the back of Lacey and took a look at her neck and back of her head. There were no scars or any interfaces connected to nerve terminals.
"Don't you have a brain terminal installed?" Ji Le asked. "Or are you saying that the wound healed so quickly after the terminal in your brain was removed?"
"Yes, I have been in poor health since I was a child and do not meet the installation requirements for embedded brain terminals, so I have always used virtual glasses. The glasses I wore were originally virtual glasses, and later I controlled them here The controls connected to the Utopia network were removed."
"So you are a lunatic, a lunatic who wants to change the status quo." K sneered from the side. "With your persuasion, we agreed to go to the countryside to investigate, but we ended up in this field. I really don't know why we believed you so much in the first place. Now that I think about it, your idea is really crazy."
Ji Le looked at Lacey, hoping for an explanation.
"I'm just an ordinary teacher, but I don't really like the current education method. It seems that as long as the students' IQ and skills are improved, and as long as the students can contribute to technology in the future, they are considered excellent... But other than these, character and emotion Stability is also important, and I hope these students can have kindness and empathy for others, which is more important than any scientific achievement."
"Forget it, it's useless to talk about it now. Everyone doesn't agree with my ideas... Please help me untie the rope quickly. Although those walking zombies won't come here for nothing, there's no guarantee they will."
This teacher didn't have a brain terminal installed, so Ji Le could understand why she had such an idea.
Lacey is the same kind of person as him.
Ji Le untied Lacey's rope.
She moved her hands and feet, touched the marks where the rope had been strangled, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go." Ji Le said.
"What about him?"
Ji Le glanced at K: "Let him stay here, I don't want to take him with me."
"Wait, let me go too, have you forgotten? I even saved your life!"
Ji Le walked to K's side and approached him: "Then it depends on your own fate."
K was silent, watching Ji Le and Lacey leave the food warehouse.
"I know how to get out, come with me." Lacey said, breaking into a quick trot.
At this time, the meal was over and all the walking zombies in the cafeteria had left.
They left the cafeteria without incident.
The previously ferocious red mist also subsided, and some walking zombies occasionally wandered outside, but it didn't affect anything. Ji Le and Lacey could pass by just holding their breath.
"How do I get out of here?" Ji Le asked curiously. "How did you know?"
"The key point is water. You can return to the original world through water, but the water must wrap the entire body." Lacey explained. "I discovered it by accident, but before I could escape, I was killed? Did he call himself this name?"
"So the place we are going to is a public bathhouse?" Ji Le looked forward and felt that the building not far away looked very much like some kind of bathing center.
"Yes, there is a public bathhouse in the school. It is the only place where you can find water that can cover your whole body."
"Do you know Aisena?"
Lacey became a little surprised: "Do you know her? Have you met her?"
"I saw her..."
"Great, she escaped. I told her my speculation about escaping before. She was almost caught by K before, but luckily she managed to escape."
"Don't be too happy, she's dead."
"What?! How did she die so she could finally escape?"
"She jumped to her death. All signs point to her committing suicide." Ji Le stared at Lacey's expression. "You know what?"
"I don't know. She has always been optimistic and very cooperative with my teaching. Although she was born in a traditional family, she is willing to try some things that are unconventional for them, such as experiencing empathy with me. Follow me to see the darkness of the world, instead of blindly accepting the beauty created by society."
Lacey looked regretful: "How could she die? Why did she jump off the building?"
People are prone to passionate suicide when they are greatly stimulated, or they may commit suicide due to long-term despair.
Judging from the description of Esenna by Lacey, it doesn't seem like the latter.
And with the Utopia system monitoring her, it is unlikely that she will be in despair and depression for a long time, and she will definitely be taken to treatment early.
Then it's the former. Aisena managed to escape, but was greatly stimulated.
What exactly stimulated her?
The two came to the public bathing center, which Ji Le usually called a bathhouse.
Unexpectedly, the bathhouse was full of people.
The lobby was crowded with sluggish zombies, who seemed to be repeating the act of putting on shoes only by instinct.
"There won't be more people inside, right?" Ji Le frowned. "If we want to soak our whole bodies, we need a big bathtub."
"There is no bathtub in the women's bathroom, so you can only go to the men's bath." Lacey looked embarrassed. "Hopefully the living dead inside are wearing clothes."
Holding their breath, heads lowered, they began to walk through the lobby. With the walking dead around them, they have to be very careful.
The living dead looked around blankly, and they noticed something different walking past.
Suddenly, they started to boil. They didn't move much at first, but now they started to rush towards the door like crazy.
"what happened?"
Ji Le felt that many walking zombies bumped into him, almost causing him to lose his breath. He quickly covered his mouth and nose to hold back his breath.
Lacey's face was also flushed, and she was still holding her breath when the accident happened.
It was very difficult to walk against these living dead.
Ji Le grabbed Lacey's arm and pulled her to the side, waiting for these guys to leave.
They could hardly hold it in anymore and prayed that these living dead would leave quickly.
It took a full minute for the walking dead to clear out of the hall.
"Huh——" Ji Le felt that his lungs were liberated. "Why did they suddenly riot? We didn't do anything, right?"
There is no one inside. There is a large mirror in the dressing room. Through the dressing room, you will reach the shower room and bathing area.
They found a large bathtub and started trying to fill it with water.
