Chapter 0772 – Repair Room
”The tally sheet that Teacher Bai took at that time clearly stated that the class I was in had a total of 17 teachers and students combined. But when I counted myself, I realized that there were 17 students alone in that class! That means there was an extra student in the class at that time! The real number of students should have been 16! And I don’t know if Mr. Bai was careless or if it was because of some other reason that he overlooked that!”
There were photos attached to the student files, and by comparing the memories in his mind, Chen Ge quickly found five files from the file bag, all five of whom Chen Ge had never seen in the class.
”The class I’m in is missing five people?” Chen Ge quickly associated another thing with the fact that there happened to be five humanoid shadows on the walls of the 413 dormitory where he lived!
”Is it a coincidence? Or did the five missing people end up becoming shadows on the wall?” Chen Ge went through the student files again, and he discovered another problem: “Why didn’t I find Xiao Lin’s file?”
After looking through it twice, Chen Ge didn’t see the person Lin Si Si Si.
”Could it be that the extra person in the classroom at that time was Lin Sisi? That is, myself?”
Chen Ge thought back to the Nightmare Academy diary about Xiao Lin, because Xiao Lin usually liked to play pranks, and then the whole class played a joke on him together.
”I seem to understand a bit.” Chen Ge didn’t say the second half of his sentence, he felt that Lin Si Si Si might not represent a person, but an identity.
Everyone here was not friends with him, but at the same time, everyone had some sort of unknown relationship with him.
”Without any help, without any clues, anyone you see is an enemy, in a situation where you could be plunged into death at any time, and having to face the almost desperate ‘rules’ of the academy, this is a four-star difficulty?” Chen Ge’s hand gripping the file was unconsciously hard as he subconsciously stole a glance at his own shadow, there was not a single trace of abnormality there.
The truth was often the cruelest and heaviest, Chen Ge slowly took a breath, “It’s okay, at least they aren’t ironclad, I still have a chance.”
Everyone in the school had their own agenda, they all wanted to fulfill their own purpose, this was the opportunity for Chen Ge!
Memorizing the faces in those five files, Chen Ge stuffed the entire file into his backpack.
He continued searching in the bedroom while Wang lay on the door panel, eavesdropping outside with a nervous face.
”Little Aya, open the door, uncle is worried about you, afraid that some bad people will run into your house.”
”The little pet my dad gave me ran out of its cage and I’m in the house to catch it.”
”The little pet your dad gave you?”
”Yeah, Uncle Zhang, please don’t tell anyone, I promise I’ll never affect anyone.”
”Old Bai is also fooling around, the rules of the school do not allow pets. Let’s forget about it this time, just get rid of that thing as soon as possible.”
”Okay, Uncle Zhang, you must not tell anyone.”
”Don’t worry, how could I tell anyone else about this.”
The voice in the living room disappeared, after a while Bai Aya ran over and opened the bedroom door, “He’s gone.”
”Will he still be hiding at the door?” Chen Ge’s left hand carrying his bag tilted behind him, he was worried that the girl would see the bulging backpack.
In this very short period of time, Chen Ge searched the bedroom and found a teacher’s license, a meal card, and a magnetic card for the library in addition to the student records. He didn’t care if those things were useful or not, and stuffed them all into his bag.
”It should really be gone, Mr. Zhang is very nice, just occasionally suspicious.” Bai Aya brought Chen Ge and Wang Xiaoming to the door of the living room, she first let Chen Ge look on the cat’s eye to make sure no one was outside before opening the living room door, “Let’s go, I’ll wait for you outside the repair room.”
There were no lights installed in the hallway, it was pitch black and it felt like something would rush out at any moment.
Chen Ge gave a silent gesture as he first turned off all the lights in Bai Aya’s house and waited for his eyes to get used to the darkness before stepping out of the house.
”Be careful.” Chen Ge was a person who knew how to utilize his strengths very well, he possessed Yin pupils, and it was in the darkness that his sharp senses and superior eyesight could be put to the best use.
The three of them came together to the deepest part of the corridor, and Bai Aya took out the bunch of keys from her pajama pocket and tried them one by one.
Any ringing in the quiet corridor was amplified, Wang’s body pressed against the corner, looking around nervously, while Chen Ge kept an eye on Bai Aya to prevent the other party from making small moves.
On the fourth attempt, the card spring popped in the door lock, and the door to the repair room opened at once.
”It’s that yellow brass key?” Chen Ge’s pupils narrowed as he looked at the key and thought it looked familiar.
Reaching into his backpack, Chen Ge found the long string of keys he had found in Xiao Lin’s backpack.
When he had just obtained that string of keys, Chen Ge had wondered why Xiao Lin had so many keys.
”It seems like Xiao Lin’s keychain also has this key on it!” Chen Ge didn’t know where Xiao Lin got this key from, but this discovery was good news for him, in the future, when he encountered a door that couldn’t be opened, he could use the keys in Xiao Lin’s backpack to try them out one by one, and they might be able to be opened.
”Assuming that Kobayashi is an identity, wouldn’t the existence of this key be a side note that Kobayashi has been to the repair room before?”
”Don’t gawk! Quickly look for something, someone is expected to come over later.” Wang Xiaoming secretly pointed down at Bai Aya, as if to say that Teacher Bai might be going home soon.
Chen Ge no longer delayed, he entered inside the repair room, but the scene he entered was something he couldn’t have imagined before entering.
The room was indeed filled with tools, but none of them were tools for repairing machinery, but rather tools related to the human body, such as gum separators that only dentists would use, periosteal strippers, wire scissors, ophthalmic scissors, needle holders, hemostats, curved pliers, and so on.
”Am I in the wrong place?” In the center of the room was a table covered with a white cloth with bumps, four mirrors covered with white cloth stood in the four corners, and the surrounding shelves were cleaned up and placed with all kinds of strange and weird tools, many of which Chen Ge did not recognize.
”This is the repair room?”
”Yes.” Wang Xiaoming and Bai Aya spoke in unison, both of their faces becoming even paler after entering this room.
”I’m afraid that this repair room …… is not used to repair those furniture and appliances.” Chen Ge didn’t talk any more nonsense, he quickly moved in front of the shelves, there were some things that couldn’t be changed, so let’s make the best of what can be changed: “It’s fine, the tools used for pulling out teeth should be able to be used for pulling out nails as well.”
The repair room wasn’t too big, no blood or stains to be seen, the place seemed to be cleaned every day.
Stuffing all the tools he could use into his bag, Chen Ge quickly walked over to the first mirror.
