Chapter 54: Lin Jia’s choice
A few minutes later, just when Zhao Xing, a fat man with glasses, started to complain that his hands were sore while holding the basin, Yang Chen's voice came from outside the bathroom. At the same time, Wen Yao hid in the fourth room. In the cubicle, he then whispered to Zhao Xing: "When Lin Jia enters the toilet cubicle, pour out the water in the basin."
Zhao Xing showed a malicious smile, as if he had seen Lin Jia's miserable appearance after being doused with water.
"Don't worry, Wen Yao, let him say bad things about me in front of the teacher. I want him to know how powerful I am."
Zhao Xing, a fat man wearing glasses, laughed a few more times before closing his mouth, then stood on the upside-down bucket and waited for Lin Jia to come in.
"Hey, people who make snitches are always so hated." Yue Ran complained in his mind while standing in the utility room.
"Lin Jia, please come with me. Don't you still believe me?"
There was a hint of pleading in Yang Chen's voice, and then he coughed again due to excitement.
"Is there something that we can't talk about in class? Do we have to come here?"
Yue Ran, who was hiding in the utility room, didn't hear any suspicion in Lin Jia's tone.
"These words are about Wen Yao. There are too many people who are good to him, so we can't let others hear them." Yang Chen's voice became much quieter because of his guilty conscience.
"Wen Yao, did he bully you again? I'll tell the teacher that they are too much of a bully."
"No, no, no, no," Yang Chen took Lin Jia's arm and didn't let him leave, "Last time you went to the teacher for me, the teacher just asked them to write a review and stand outside for a class. After that, they didn't Just bully as usual, cough cough."
Yang Chen covered his chest and coughed twice.
"If you go to the teacher again this time, they will probably get more serious again."
Lin Jia frowned, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't say anything and could only sigh.
"Why did you ask me to come to the men's room this time?"
"In that partition," Yang Chen raised his finger and pointed to the fifth cubicle in the men's room.
Lin Jia frowned, seeming to see something, but in the end she did not expose Yang Chen's lie, but reached out and opened the door of the compartment.
"sorry."
Yang Chen's heart sank and he closed his eyes. It was difficult for him to convince himself that he had watched his friend fall into someone else's trap.
"Bang──"
The door of the fourth compartment was suddenly knocked open, and then Yang Chen heard Wen Yao's voice.
"What a waste!"
Yang Chen couldn't help but finally opened his eyes.
Lin Jia fell in the fifth cubicle, and his body was already wet. The fat man wearing glasses walked out of the utility room with an empty basin in his hand, and Wen Yao stood there. Someone beside him seemed to be saying something to him, but Yang Chen couldn't hear it clearly at this time because Wen Yao's fist had already hit his face.
When Yue Ran walked out of the utility room, Wen Yao, Zhao Xing and Yang Chen had already left the men's room, but Lin Jia was still covered in water and collapsed in the fifth cubicle.
Yue Ran could clearly see what happened after Yang Chen closed his eyes.
Just when Lin Jia opened the door of the fifth compartment, Wen Yao, who was hiding in the fourth compartment, suddenly rushed out and kicked Lin Jia directly into the fifth compartment while Lin Jia was still confused. Inside, the only one left was Zhao Xing, a fat man wearing glasses, who poured all the water in the basin onto Lin Jia's head, while Wen Yao, who was standing outside, went up to touch up the water.
Yue Ran didn't stop him because he knew that everything he was seeing had already happened.
"You've seen it all, do you think my choice was wrong?"
Lin Jia, who was soaked all over, sat on the steps of the fifth compartment, not caring about his wet clothes at all.
"What choice?"
Yue Ran also looked at Lin Jia who was sitting there.
"Later choice." Lin Jia stood up.
Yue Ran was silent. He understood the choice Lin Jia was talking about.
"I understand, thank you. I hope I can get your answer next time we meet."
Lin Jia stood up and stood in front of the fifth cubicle. The graffiti that should have been on the wall behind him had disappeared, as if it had never appeared at all. Yue Ran knew that what he was seeing now was not reality, but three Everything that happened years ago.
"Hmm - there is a school rule in the rubble on the landing on the right side of the fourth floor."
Lin Jia walked out of the bathroom and walked into the darkness, leaving only those words that made Yue Ran think deeply.
As Lin Jia left, the graffiti that disappeared in the fifth compartment resurfaced, and everything returned to reality.
"Ding──congratulations! Triggered the main prerequisite mission of "Southern Jiangsu University" - "Lin Jia's Choice".
Three years ago, Lin Jia, who lived in dormitory 704, opened the dormitory window and jumped out of the window with resentment towards those who had bullied him.
Three years later, the principal disappeared, and all the chaos began at that moment...
Since the day the principal disappeared, the curse that had been silent in this land began to spread. It was the curse from Lin Jia, the curse from dormitory 704, and the curse on this campus.
Until that day, Lin Jia asked you whether his choice was right.
Task content: Answer Lin Jia’s questions.
Note: First, you have three chances to answer Lin Jia’s questions, and now you have two more chances.
Second, your answers will determine the direction of the mission.
Third, please answer carefully. "
Yue Ran, who had dyed yellow hair and wore a white T-shirt, habitually touched his earlobes, thinking about the tasks prompted by the system.
"It's really a headache that there are still preliminary tasks. Three opportunities to answer, well, it was counted as one just now, and now there are two left. Does it mean that I can meet Lin Jia two more times? Another question, if it is three I haven’t even given an answer, so what will happen to Lin Jia?”
When Yue Ran came out of the bathroom, it felt like he had experienced a century in it.
Yue Ran rubbed his swollen temples and decided not to think about these things for the time being.
"It's better to complete the task in front of you first."
The bathroom on the fourth floor was next to the stairs on the same third floor. Yue Ran hesitated a little but then walked towards the lobby on the fourth floor.
Yue Ran wants to get that school rule.
"Zhang Yuan's cheap bodyguard has disappeared. Now I have to rely on myself. I hope that school rule can help me."
The incandescent lamps in the corridors on both sides emitted dim light, completely submerged in the bright light of the fourth floor hall.
Arriving at the lobby on the fourth floor, Yue Ran just glanced at the fragments of mirrors scattered on the floor, and then continued walking to the corridor on the right.
At the same time, there was a sound of pressing a switch from behind Yue Ran, and then darkness isolated everything here, and the place fell into darkness again.
The fourth person is still here!
