Chapter 114: Boys always have those few days [4th update]
Lin Ye was unfamiliar with the Japanese internet and didn't know the relevant websites, so he could only take it one step at a time, using a browser to search for news information related to Chiba, and then finding ways to private message suitable netizens through the comments below to inquire about relevant information.
But this efficiency was very low, and not all netizens were willing to reply.
But all in all, he could be considered to have obtained some news.
One hour later,
Lin Ye stood up to stretch his muscles and bones, relaxing his body.
"Exercise to improve physical fitness, learn combat skills to increase my own combat power, and also... firearms."
Firearms and ammunition might not necessarily be effective against eerie entities, but they could make humans who might be present calm down and be willing to listen to reason.
Remembering that middle-aged man at the hotel, Lin Ye felt that there would only be more people with similar reactions in the future.
"The second thing is money,"
His daily life and studies required money, and in order to deal with the Eerie Game, he also needed money to purchase some professional props and equipment to improve his survival rate.
Lin Ye was very clear that 'Time Stop' was not invincible. For example, at the love hotel, he used Time Stop, and the eerie entity indeed couldn't harm him, but if he hadn't noticed the 'pollution value' and thought about how to handle it, he would have completely turned into an eerie entity, eventually becoming one of them.
He could treat the 'Eerie Game' with an optimistic attitude, but tactically, he had to take it seriously and be fully prepared.
Lin Ye picked up paper and a pen and began writing on his notebook with a 'scratch, scratch, scratch' sound.
Soon, the white paper was filled with characters.
He erased and started modifying again, repeating this many times until he felt it was acceptable.
The night grew deep.
Lin Ye glanced at the time on his phone; it was already past midnight by ten-plus minutes. He put down his gel pen and went to the bathroom to start washing up.
Soon,
The light of the desk lamp in the small apartment room also went out.
Lin Ye lay on the bed and closed his eyes, his steady breathing soon beginning.
"Ring, ring..."
"Ring, ring..."
The alarm clock went off.
Lin Ye turned it off and immediately got up to start his day.
Exercise started from today.
Starting with a morning run at dawn.
Lin Ye changed into sportswear and running shoes and began his jog according to yesterday's plan.
"Hoo..."
"Hoo..."
Half an hour later, Lin Ye returned to the apartment, carrying steamed buns and milk purchased from a convenience store.
"I also need to pay attention to nutritional intake."
After eating and taking a cold shower, Lin Ye changed into his school uniform and headed to school.
Walking on the tree-lined path leading to Sobu High, Lin Ye looked at the energetic female high school students ahead, his mood light and pleasant.
This didn't feel at all like the life he lived in high school in his previous life.
Walking into the school gate and following the stairs up, Lin Ye arrived at the floor where Class J was located. Just then, a cold, long-haired black-haired girl on the right side of the corridor was walking over with light steps.
Lin Ye did not take the initiative to greet her; he felt that even if he did, she wouldn't reply, so it was better to say nothing at all.
Soon,
The time arrived, and the class bell rang.
There were no special events throughout the day.
Lin Ye left school, changed his clothes, and headed to the destination he was going to investigate today—Chiba Park.
"People walking in the park around nine at night heard a mysterious female voice, but when some gathered the courage to look, they found nothing. This situation has occurred for three consecutive days."
Lin Ye staked out from eight o'clock, but until ten o'clock, there was no magical female voice, and as for hints from the game, there were even fewer.
"I'll come back and check in two days."
Next,
Lin Ye also launched field investigations based on eerie news found online about 'corpses coming back to life at the crematorium' and 'moving statues at the shrine.'
The former was said to be discovered by crematorium staff on night duty who saw a corpse stand up and walk on the ground, scaring the staff into running away, but the next day during the day, the corpse was found lying exactly in its original position.
The latter was about a shrine maiden who forgot something, so after finishing dinner, she returned to the shrine to look for it, only to see the statue come to life and smile, scaring the shrine maiden into fainting on the spot; she was frozen awake in the middle of the night and fled the shrine.
However, in the end, he gained nothing and did not trigger any missions.
After school on Friday afternoon,
Lin Ye was once again invited to Hiratsuka Shizuka's life guidance office.
Hiratsuka Shizuka, still dressed in her white lab coat, looked at Lin Ye helplessly.
"Sigh, what have you been doing at night lately? You look listless and sleep-deprived."
"This..."
"Speak,"
She clenched her fists, making a 'crack' sound; that was the sound of intimidation.
"Teacher, you know, high school boys always have those few days..."
"The truth, you brat, tell me the truth, or it's the iron fist sanction."
"You can't hit me, Teacher,"
"Oh,"
Hiratsuka Shizuka stood up, supporting herself with one hand. She stared with her eyes, a smile curling at the corner of her mouth, and spoke slowly,
"Want to try? See if I can hit you?"
"Forget it, if you can't hit me, Teacher, wouldn't that be incredibly awkward?"
'Swish!'
The sound of a fist whistling through the air.
But it missed.
Hiratsuka Shizuka was stunned; even if she had consciously pulled back her strength at the end, it shouldn't have been dodged!
'Clang...'
Lin Ye clutched his abdomen directly, his face pale, and let out a pained sound.
"Hiratsuka-sensei... you're hitting people! Help... help me!"
Hiratsuka Shizuka:???
"Don't talk nonsense..."
She couldn't help but panic. She had seen students who caused trouble, but she had never seen a student like Lin Ye who caused trouble like this.
"Stop shouting, stop shouting, alright, alright, whatever request you have, say it quickly, I'll satisfy you,"
"I lack a girlfriend."
"Go find one yourself."
"I want the right to ask for leave at any time."
"..."
This was Lin Ye's true goal, wasn't it! ===== CHAPTER 115 =====
