Chapter 40

Lin Ye could feel the heat coming, and sweat flowed from his forehead.

"Roar..."

With a roar of anger, the weirdness ejected at this moment, leaping over. The sudden change shocked Tachibana Hina behind him, fearing that something would happen to Lin Ye.

"Be careful,"

'Thud...'

The weirdness smashed down hard,

But Lin Ye had already left, maintaining a distance of three or four meters.

He always maintained a distance from the weirdness, and he noticed that there were slight signs of melting under the weirdness's feet.

High temperature,

Burnt charcoal scent.

This weirdness is burning.

And the weirdness failed in one strike, and the next moment it killed again. The flesh on its face bloomed, revealing more red flesh, and its right hand swung, smashing over hard.

Lin Ye retreated calmly, wandering and maintaining distance, making the weirdness have no way at all. It became more and more angry, seemingly wanting to vent its anger on Lin Ye.

However, it could never get close.

The temperature was higher,

It was hotter.

A guess appeared in Lin Ye's mind.

And at this time, the weirdness realized it couldn't deal with Lin Ye, so it immediately turned its direction and ran toward Tachibana Hina.

The sudden change made Tachibana Hina's heart sound an alarm, and her body subconsciously retreated, preparing to escape.

"Thud..."

The weirdness flew out instead, fell to the ground, and 'ding-dong...' the sound of metal rolling sounded. Lin Ye found a coin.

"I didn't allow you to leave,"

Just during that time stop, Lin Ye not only hit the weirdness with a critical strike but also took off his sock and stuffed it into its mouth.

At this time,

Watching the sock burn to ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye, Lin Ye confirmed his guess.

"The weirdness is burning."

Whether it's the burnt scent or the constantly rising temperature, it all hints at 'burning,' and as time goes by, the degree of burning becomes more and more fierce.

If it weren't for time stop, with the weirdness's current state, if he touched it directly with his hand, his hand would probably burn into charcoal in just a few seconds.

"Teacher, I know the solution,"

"Water,"

"Water is the key to solving the monster."

Tachibana Hina opened her eyes slightly, unable to figure out why water was the key,

But she believed in Lin Ye.

However,

Where is there water here!

Looking at it, looking around, she couldn't see any place that might have water.

What should she do?

Even if she knew the key item to kill the monster, she couldn't find it.

Tachibana Hina became more and more anxious.

……

…… ===== CHAPTER 96 =====

The empty street, besides the solid asphalt road surface, was just utility poles, walls, and other solid things; there was absolutely no sign of water.

"No faucet,"

"And I don't see any pools or rivers,"

"Where am I supposed to find water!"

……

Tachibana Hina was almost crying from anxiety.

Listening to the movement of Lin Ye fighting the monster, she repeatedly reminded herself to stay calm, but the anxious mood always permeated her heart.

"Lin Ye-kun, wait for me, I'll go over there and look."

After saying that, she immediately turned around and ran fast,

And Lin Ye, calculating that the time was about right, immediately used time stop to pull a greater distance from the weirdness.

The weirdness only felt that in the blink of an eye, Lin Ye had disappeared before its eyes.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo..."

Hissing roars sounded.

And Lin Ye tried to climb over the wall to enter the house on the side of the street, but the invisible air wall became a solid obstacle.

"This really is a game."

Lin Ye sighed,

"Let's reunite with the teacher first!"

A while later,

Lin Ye saw the female teacher Tachibana Hina walking with uncoordinated steps and trying her best to walk fast.

"Teacher, you... are injured."

"I, I'm fine, compared to me, are you okay, Student Lin!"

"I'm fine."

With the help of the streetlight, Tachibana Hina looked at Lin Ye carefully from top to bottom. Seeing that Lin Ye only had obvious burnt marks on some parts of his clothes and no obvious wounds, she was immediately relieved.

"It's good that you're fine, but sorry, I didn't find water. Teacher is too useless, I wanted to climb the wall..."

But she failed, and twisted her foot because of it.

"Teacher, your foot..."

"It's fine,"

"It's strange if it's fine,"

Lin Ye found that Tachibana Hina was no longer wearing shoes. She had walked barefoot all the way here. Although she had socks, and they were relatively thick socks, stepping directly on the asphalt road was still torture.

"I'll carry you,"

"No, carrying me is too slow, he's coming."

Tachibana Hina turned her head and saw the monster appearing behind her,

The flesh-and-blood, sizzling appearance struck Tachibana Hina's heart again and again.

She realized that if she were caught by the monster, she would probably be burned alive into charcoal!

"Get on,"

Lin Ye squatted in front of Tachibana Hina,

"Hurry up, there's no time left."

She gritted her teeth, leaned down, and wrapped her hands around Lin Ye's neck.

For the first time, she was this intimate with the opposite sex, but unexpectedly felt the broadness of his shoulders and the reassuring touch.

Lin Ye naturally supported Tachibana Hina's legs with both hands, feeling the touch from his back, and he exclaimed in his heart that the touch was different from Hoshino Ai's.

The older Tachibana Hina was more plump and soft, with the scent of a mature peach.

Not bad, not bad, this feeling is also not bad.

Lin Ye walked quickly.

The weirdness behind was chasing, and the distance between the two was constantly getting closer. ===== CHAPTER 97 =====

"Student Lin, put me down! You can't walk fast like this."

"Believe me, Teacher,"

He started running,

[Time Stop] activated,

And to Tachibana Hina, it was just a moment of stunned surprise, and the distance between them and the monster was pulled away again, leaving only the roaring monster.

"This won't work either, your stamina definitely won't be able to take it. We must find water. Or... can our blood eliminate it? Teacher has more blood, use mine."

By now, she had also thought of why Lin Ye judged that water was the key.

"Not to mention whether human blood can eliminate weirdness, even if it could, Teacher, how much blood do you think is needed? The upper limit for a single blood donation is 400 milliliters, and losing more than 1200 milliliters of blood at once will cause shock and endanger life."

"But if we keep running like this..."

She felt that in the absence of water, maybe she could try using blood.

"I already know where there is water."

"Eh, eh, eh! Where?"

Along the way, she hadn't seen any trace of water at all.

Tachibana Hina looked, and ahead it was still empty, with nothing.

The end of the deep street was like an abyss devouring everything, making her tremble and withdraw her gaze.

"We're here,"

Lin Ye stopped his pace,

Tachibana Hina's gaze fell on the vending machine by the street.

"So that's it,"

"Mineral water in the vending machine!"

When the answer was placed in front of her, Tachibana Hina suddenly realized that she had been thinking in the direction of faucets, pools, rivers, etc., and had completely forgotten about bottled water.

This vending machine that had existed from the beginning was the answer!

"Student Lin, your observation is really sharp,"

He just recalled the things they encountered from beginning to end systematically.

Lin Ye put down Tachibana Hina,

In front of the vending machine, Tachibana Hina immediately took out a 100-yen coin from her wallet and inserted it, but it was invalid, and the machine didn't react at all.

She tried several times, but it still had no reaction.

"How... is this possible."

Tachibana Hina's face was pale. The water was right in front of them, but they couldn't get it!

"Smash it."

The female teacher said angrily, and even wanted to raise her foot to kick, but was stopped by Lin Ye in time.

"I still have a coin here."

"But... it's useless, this isn't a coin problem."

'Click...'

Coin inserted,

'Beep, beep...'

The vending machine turned, and soon, accompanied by a 'clatter' sound, two bottles of mineral water rolled out.

Tachibana Hina was dumbfounded,

What's the situation?

Could it be that my coin was disliked by the machine? That's too much!

Lin Ye didn't explain and bent down to pick up the mineral water.

Just now, he was already 100% sure that mineral water was an effective weapon to kill the weirdness.

"Watch me next, Teacher,"

"Please be careful, safety first."

Under Tachibana Hina's prayerful and worried eyes, Lin Ye walked toward the weirdness again.

And it seemed not to realize the danger, continuing to grin, and the burnt charcoal scent became more and more intense.
