The devil affectionately calls me a bad guy

"What...you sound like you're not human," Lin Shiyin smiled helplessly.

Well, this reaction seems to be human.

Li Lin nodded in his heart.

"But seeing how resentful you look, have you encountered something similar?" Lin Shiyin subconsciously raised her hand and gently pressed it on Li Lin's head and rubbed it gently.

Hey... this woman...

Li Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although I have always thought that Lin Shiyin is a naive person, it seems that her naivety is a bit too extreme.

He is a veritable wolf, and Lin Shiyin has truly experienced his wolf side with her own body three times, and now she is treating him like a poor little puppy.

It's really... unbelievable.

But no matter how incredible it is, good things are still good things.

Li Lin's mouth corners slightly raised.

It seems that Lin Shiyin, as a teacher, is very fond of his students, and coincidentally, he has the attributes of a student in his head.

It is a teacher's duty to listen to students' troubles and solve their problems, but for Lin Shiyin it seems to have become... instinct.

"Yeah~ Of course, in my first semester at university, I studied as hard as I did in high school and took notes in class. I wasn't a top student, but others called me one because of my study attitude. As for the test results, I was indeed the top student in the class based on the total score, although it was a little risky."

"That's amazing..." Lin Shiyin's eyes lit up, "Then you can get the first place scholarship."

"Yeah, if we only count the scores on the test paper," Li Lin grinned, "with the extra points from the club, I went from first to third. Then I couldn't help but ask myself, is it really meaningful to work so hard?"

"This..." Lin Shiyin hesitated.

She also went to college, so she naturally knew some of the rules of the university.

College is different from high school. It is equivalent to stepping half a foot into society, and this process is not as easy as imagined. High school students who have been under high pressure have been receiving education that they will have an easy time when they enter college.

If you take that step, perhaps your whole body will fall into the circle of society and be washed away to somewhere unknown, and three years of hardship will be in vain.

Maybe that step was never taken, and I would still be studying in isolation like in high school, and then gradually become isolated from the group.

The changes in everything were so natural.

It's just as weird as your parents who have been nagging you not to fall in love since you were a child, suddenly complaining one day about why you have never been in a relationship.

"sorry."

Lin Shiyin was silent for a long time, then hugged Li Lin's head with an apologetic look on her face.

Even Li Lin felt a little guilty and wanted to express his admiration for what a good teacher he was.

But when he thought of the dozens of bodies that had died, his conscience got to him.

"So, teacher~"

Li Lin stretched out his hands and tightly embraced Lin Shiyin's slender waist, and raised his head little by little.

"What is hidden in Yishi's death?"

Lin Shiyin's expression froze instantly, and her hands holding Li Lin's head began to tremble slightly.

Chapter 49: Weird Supermarket

Bai Jie held onto the edge of the supermarket door and carefully poked her head inside.

Although she really wanted to casually walk into the supermarket and ask the supermarket waiter about Zhiyuan High School, she couldn't do it after all.

After all, her appearance was there, and she looked like a high school student no matter how you looked at her. Plus, she had a belt tied around her neck, and any normal person would think there was something wrong with her.

Maybe some people who don't want to get into trouble pretend not to see it, but she can't bet that there are no people in the supermarket who are not afraid of getting into trouble, or those who don't want to get involved too much but are willing to secretly call the police.

Probably because it was still early, there were not many customers in the supermarket, and it seemed that the only clerk was the one sitting at the cash register reading a newspaper.

"that……"

Bai Jie hesitated for a moment and then called out with a smile.

"Is there anything?"

The cashier was stunned for a moment, and the newspaper moved slightly downward, revealing his eyes.

Those were a pair of rather cloudy eyes. Being stared at by them, Bai Jie shrank back feeling a little uncomfortable.

"I want to inquire about Zhiyuan High School. Are there any rumors about Zhiyuan High School?"

The cashier tilted his head, as if he didn't understand what Bai Jie meant.

Bai Jie smiled somewhat awkwardly, secretly cursing herself in her heart for being too direct and should have proceeded step by step.

"Aren't you a student of Zhiyuan High School?"

The cashier closed the newspaper and put it aside.

It was the face of a middle-aged man, with deep crow's feet at the corners of his eyes. He was probably a heavy smoker, with yellow teeth and even blackened roots.

"Well, I have a friend in Zhiyuan High School. I haven't heard from her recently and I'm a little worried, so I wanted to come and ask her," Bai Jie scratched her face and smiled awkwardly.

This excuse... sucks!!!

Bai Jie, who could hardly hold back her laughter, laughed even more awkwardly and leaned back.

I won't be considered a weirdo!

"Well, sorry to bother you, I'll go ask someone else..."

"You can just pretend that your friend no longer exists."

However, to Bai Jie's surprise, the cashier not only did not look at her as if she were a weirdo, but instead thought about it seriously and picked up the newspaper again.

"Don't take it to heart. Maybe your friend didn't exist in the first place. It's just that something went wrong."

Bai Jie's mouth twitched.

No, no, no, how could I not care after you said that!

"Um, what do you mean by never existed in the first place?" Bai Jie subconsciously walked into the supermarket. "Does it mean someone created a small account to deceive me?"

She had seen similar things on the news, where a psychopath created a secondary account and fabricated an identity to deceive immature high school or even middle school students in order to satisfy their perverted hobbies. Some of them were not satisfied with the psychological perversion and wanted to do something directly.

"It's just a mistake. Don't take it too seriously and don't stay here too long." The cashier didn't even raise his head this time. "We're just online friends anyway. I'll give you as much as you want."

No, no, no, so, you have said it to this extent, how could you not care!

Bai Jie's eyes twitched wildly.

The more the cashier emphasized the mistake and how not to worry about it and just forget about it, the more she cared about it. It was originally just an excuse, but now her curiosity was really aroused.

"Well, although my friend didn't meet in person, she sent me photos," Bai Jie tightened her fingers that were holding the door frame slightly, her eyes fixed on the cashier whose face was blocked by the newspaper.

"It's just a photo scam. Aren't young people like you the best at this kind of thing?" The cashier shrugged. "Women send photos from the Internet as their own to others, or men directly send photos of women to others to pretend to be women. Isn't this very common? Don't take it seriously."

"That's true, but..."

Bai Jie was somewhat unwilling.

Under normal circumstances, the cashier would have had some self-awareness and left after hearing what had happened. After all, at her age, ideas come and go quickly. She could travel a long way with great enthusiasm just to see someone, but she could also get bored the next moment and leave in a hurry.

But the problem was that she couldn't just leave now. She wasn't really here to look for anyone, but to help Li Lin find out about Zhiyuan High School.

The current situation was that all that was missing was a banner with the words "there is a ghost" written on it. No matter what she said, it was impossible for them to just walk away as if nothing had happened.

"From your tone, this kind of thing seems to be very... common?"

The cashier paused and gently put the newspaper down. His cloudy eyes made Bai Jie feel uncomfortable, even uneasy, but she still suppressed the discomfort and looked directly into the cashier's cloudy eyes, trying to see something from them.

"Occasionally……"

After staring at Bai Jie for a long time, the cashier picked up the newspaper again, answered rather perfunctorily, and then put on his headphones, looking as if he didn't want to continue the conversation with Bai Jie.

Bai Jie looked at the cashier again with some reluctance.

Treat it as if it doesn't exist, just a mistake, occasionally.

These words, indeed, sometimes there will be some weird people who make some photos on the Internet to deceive people, which is undoubtedly a mistake. It is better not to take it to heart and pretend it does not exist. She is not the kind of pure little Aries who knows nothing. Of course she understands this logic, but when it comes from the mouth of the cashier in front of her, she is a little confused, because the tone of this cashier... It's like describing a machine.

Occasionally there will be some small accidents, causing a certain part to have some problems, but it does not have much impact on the overall device. No, it should be said that it is best if it does not exist.

Bai Jie felt a chill on her back and subconsciously turned her head to look at Zhiyuan High School in the distance.

In a trance, she saw that what was there was not a vibrant high school, but a huge, cold and heartless machinery factory.

Ominous, weird, and inconsistent.

Bai Jie couldn't help swallowing.

Although she had already determined that there was something wrong with this place when Guidu drove over to remind her, but seeing how Li Lin easily dealt with Lin Shiyin and Lin Xueyin, she still couldn't help but think, "This place is not that exaggerated."

Now, she once again felt the weirdness and creepiness of this place.

However, Bai Jie did not notice that while she was staring at the direction of Zhiyuan High School, the cashier had put down the newspaper at some point, and was looking at her with cloudy eyes, with the other end of the headphone wire hanging beside his legs and swaying gently.

Chapter 50 Don’t worry, you are different from other teachers!

Li Lin stared at Lin Shiyin's face quietly.

It seems that no matter whether he takes the evil route or the pure love route, as long as he mentions Yi Shi's death, Lin Shiyin's status will be automatically reset, and both the degradation bar and the favorability bar will automatically decrease, entering this dead state that I can't say anything about, no matter what.

Dwelling on this matter would only seem to cause the corruption bar and favorability bar that had been raised with great difficulty to continue to decrease.

After weighing the pros and cons, Li Lin shrugged his shoulders and took the initiative to shrink back.

"Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't keep asking for it."

Seeing that Li Lin looked like the matter was over and would not be mentioned again, Lin Shiyin breathed a sigh of relief, then hesitated for a moment and looked apologetic.

"I'm sorry, other things are fine, but I really can't say anything about Yi Shi."

"Eh...Is it about Yi Shi that can't be told...or about all the people who died in Zhiyuan High School that can't be told?" Li Lin laughed meaningfully. "If you don't explain clearly, I will report them all by name."

Lin Shiyin's expression froze, and after hesitating for a long time, she turned her face away.

"Guan, I can't tell you about the death in school."

"is it?"

Li Lin grinned and didn't feel any regret.

Anyway, his original purpose was to find out the truth himself and then solve it.

Whether Lin Shiyin told the truth or not didn't have much impact on him. He had to stay until night anyway. By night, he would know everything.

However, Lin Shiyin's attitude did reveal some information to him.

He really couldn't think of any other reason that could make Lin Shiyin hold on to this point except that she was a student.

Plus Lin Xueyin’s identity as a werewolf.

What Zhiyuan High School is up to...is really not an ordinary trick.

"Forget it, let's talk about something else," Li Lin smiled calmly and leaned against the cabinet under the desk. "Teacher Lin, what do you teach?"

"math."

Lin Shiyin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, math teacher, I thought you must be a Chinese or English teacher," Li Lin glanced at the various math teaching materials that Lin Shiyin had piled up in the corner.

"Yeah, because mathematics is very interesting," Lin Shiyin shook her head gently, her voice becoming much happier. "There is only one answer, but there are different processes, and you never know how many ways there are to reach that answer."

"Indeed, there is only one answer..."

Li Lin smiled meaningfully.

"But different methods will have different effects. Overly complicated steps will make a problem particularly difficult, but on the contrary, unexpected new ideas will make that particularly difficult problem look particularly simple. No, it should be said that it is really simple, but the person who solved the problem before treated this problem as a very difficult one."

"That's right! This is the charm and fun of mathematics. It doesn't require great talent. Even an ordinary person can have a flash of inspiration at some moment and see new possibilities. I want my students to understand that sense of satisfaction and accomplishment!"

Lin Shiyin's eyes lit up.

"But now you don't have the energy to make your students feel satisfied and accomplished."

Lin Shiyin felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over her head, soaking her inside and out, and her heart felt cold.

She really wanted to refute, but that was the fact, and she really... didn't have the energy to do so.
