Chapter 47: V3C25: What Should I Be Anxious When They Were Around? (1)
After meeting at the school gate, Moe Bing informed Miss Shirley and the servant girls of her journey before returning to our side.
I rather wished she could go home directly, but this time she seemed determined to follow.
Li Nai raised her hands, put them on her waist, and then proudly declared.
“So, this time, let me, Li Nai, monitor of Class Two, Grade Two, lead the classmates to visit the most mysterious tourist attraction in the city~”
Immediately afterwards, Li Nai, like a tour guide, led this group of six to move ahead. The only thing she needed was a small flag in her hand.
I had to say that it was really eye-catching for me to walk on the road surrounded by a group of beautiful girls.
However, I was the only one concerned about other people’s view. The others were still talking and laughing as if going on an outing.
But this was not what made my head ache most. The most agonizing thing was that they were all talking to me!
Several people talked to me at the same time, which made my mind so messed up that I totally had no idea what they were talking about.
I didn’t have the ability to listen to ten people at the same time without getting them wrong. Of course, I couldn’t talk to many people at the same time, either.
Though I had been strengthened, I was not given the ability to set my mind on more than one thing. However, my memory became better and my concentration also became stronger, which enabled me to feel clearly what was happening around me.
According to my observation, although it looked peaceful on the surface, smoke of gunpowder was actually in the air.
For example, Moe Bing was holding my hand very tightly, suggesting she was on guard against everyone around her. So was Yuhui. Though at the very back of the group, she did not let anyone leave her eyesight.
Lan Hua paid more attention to Moe Bing’s movements. She stood further behind, putting her hands on Xueqing’s shoulders, and sometimes, she would lean forward to talk to me.
Xueqing seemed to care about nothing and only obediently held the other hand of mine. However, she was actually trying to keep some distance from Moe Bing with me standing in the middle.
Everyone, except Li Nai, a brain-dead zombie, was repelling Moe Bing…
Would Moe Bing feel alienated because of this?
Hmm… Well, she seemed completely indifferent to this, and instead she was domineeringly holding my arm, declaring her sovereignty over me…
Like a cow protecting a calf…
I felt I no longer belonged to myself, but became the object of others’ competition…
As for my opinions, was it possible that they didn’t plan to give any thought to them in the first place?
It was very likely to be what Lan O Qing Si Sang felt…
But fortunately, this discomforting atmosphere soon ended.
My dear “Party Pooper” Li Nai seemed unable to read people’s minds and reboot the current situation with just one sentence.
“Okay! Now we are at our starting point~”
“Starting point… Do you mean we are going to take the subway?”
Lan Hua held Xueqing’s head to her chest, and they two waddled like two penguins.
“Yes, right! We are going to take Line 4 or Line 13. Generally speaking, it is Line 4 from noon to midnight and Line 13 from midnight to the next noon. These two lines work in turns!”
“Really unlucky numbers, 4 and 13.”
“It is precisely because they are unlucky numbers that the two lines were chosen. Though not all people, some still have the same misgivings as Lan Hua, so they chose other lines think for considering the numbers unlucky. As a result, there are less people on these two lines, which also helps to reduce the number of people who enter the underground city by mistake.”
“That makes sense…”
Deliberately chose a less crowded route?
“So, now, listen up! If you don’t follow the order as I say, it is very likely that you will be in danger! But if you follow my instructions step by step, there will be absolutely no danger~ Now, I’m going to teach you the simple approach to enter the city, and it is so easy that even monkeys can pick it up ~”
Seeing her in excitement, it seemed a little bit embarrassing not to give her some responses, so I raised my hand and casually said, ‘Oh!’
It turned out that I was the only one who shouted aloud, which was so embarrassing…
But Li Nai was still the same, not affected at all, and continued to explain.
“First, buy tickets! We are going to take Line 4 today, so we need to buy tickets for Line 4. Remember to buy the ticket to the terminal ~ Ah, after all it is me who invited everyone to come this time, so I’ll do that for you all by myself~”
After that, Li Nai ran fast to the ticket office, bought six tickets, and then immediately rushed back like a gust of wind.
“Come here, everyone has a share~”
She would definitely have a great time on her own even if she were alone…
“Okay, now, here comes the point! Within the one minute before reaching the terminal, tear the ticket in your hand apart! After that, stack the two halves together, and then rip them again! Finally, throw them away like scattering petals~”
This might be the ‘key’ to the underground city. Needless to say, that place must also be an Otherworld, but this Otherworld was under the ground of our city.
“At this time, a ‘phenomenon’ will appear, that is, the surroundings will suddenly go so dark that you will not be able to see anything clearly. After a minute or two, it will light up again, and then all people in the carriage will disappear!”
“All will disappear?”
“Yes! Including us. At that time, even though we’re together on the subway, the people around us will also disappear! But don’t worry. This is normal and we are only separated when entering the city, which also helps people who have strayed in to return.”
With such a complicated setting, would there be any person straying in… How unlucky this person might be…
However, for those who knew nothing about it, it would definitely scare them to death.
All people in the carriage suddenly disappearing seemed to be nothing short of the standard plot in horror stories.
“One more thing! Never! Never get off in advance! In the ‘inner city’ area of the underground city, I can guarantee your safety; but in the ‘outfield’ area, it will… ”
