Last night, before he left the classroom, there were a total of 26 experience students in the classroom.

This number already excludes the Mountain Man who was acting independently for a long time, and if you further exclude him, Wei Liang, and Lu Zhao's group of four, only 20 experience students remain.

And now, only 12 of these 20 experience students are left; the 8 missing experience students are basically confirmed dead in this environment, as it's impossible for them to survive.

Even the remaining 12 experience students are in a state akin to pseudo-human sculptures.

They sit numbly on the chairs, faces haggard, eyes sunken, dark circles so thick they look like smoky makeup, almost losing their human semblance.

His perception hasn't completely spread throughout the classroom yet, but his heart is already feeling quite cold.

Because what really troubles him is that Director-040 is not sitting by the podium!

At this time, she should definitely be sitting by the podium.

But she's not.

"Something must have happened to her!" Lin Yi's heart suddenly skipped a beat, the feeling of foreboding becoming increasingly strong.

"Old Lin, what are you standing there for, why not go in?" Seeing Lin Yi holding the door handle in a daze, Wei Liang couldn't help but speak up, interrupting his thoughts.

Lin Yi pushed the door open a little and said in a deep voice, "Teacher Lin is not here."

"What?" Wei Liang's expression changed slightly, "Then what about our attendance?"

"Why are you still thinking about attendance?" Lin Yi couldn't help but say, the homeroom teacher's disappearance is a significant issue, it's not just about attendance!

Wei Liang slapped his head and quickly apologized sincerely, "Uh, you're right... not seeing those legs makes the whole classroom feel dark and dull, huh..."

"Liangzi, can you be serious for once..." Lin Yi rubbed his forehead, somewhat perturbed by Wei Liang's state, "Forget it, you go in first; I'll take a look at the teacher's office."

"You want to find Teacher Lin? Uh... then be careful." Wei Liang reminded him.

"I know." Lin Yi nodded, then temporarily separated from Wei Liang and headed to the teacher's office in front of "Class B2".

"Knock, knock, knock..."

He tentatively knocked on the door but did not receive a response.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Lin Yi knocked again, but there was still no response from inside.

Oh no, Director-040 really is in trouble! Lin Yi felt heavy-hearted.

"Teacher...?" Lin Yi asked softly, "Are you there?"

There was no response at all.

"What should I do?"

Lin Yi stood in front of the door, frowning tightly.

Knocking was futile, and opening the office door was impossible.

"If I could break in, it would be great. Wait... break in?"

Suddenly Lin Yi thought of the feedback feeling when he grasped the door handle earlier, and recalled the Gymnasium Rules mentioning that [Sports Students can access most things with 'Door Attributes' within the campus], and what the Night Watchman mentioned [Don't open things with 'Door Attributes' lightly unless you are sure].

Of course, the former specifically refers to within the campus, while the Night Watchman mentioned it regarding the Art Building layers, especially the little girl's bedroom door.

"Perhaps... I could try?"

After a simple weighing, this thought floated in Lin Yi's mind, so he said, "Teacher... I'm going to open the door?"

Lin Yi naturally received no response from inside the office.

Lin Yi then reached out and slowly grasped the door handle.

As his palm touched the door handle, a kind of invisible wave quietly spread out, penetrating into the door handle.

With the wave's penetration, the door handle gradually transformed in Lin Yi's perception into something woven from grid lines, hidden within which were mysterious patterns.

The patterns looked like keyholes, with some wrinkles, and he used his perception touch to manipulate those wrinkles, smoothing them as if inserting a key.

"Click, click, click, click..."

The sound of mechanical gears moving gradually emerged, as the office door lock was slowly "unlocked" by Lin Yi.

When the last wrinkle smoothed out, Lin Yi attempted to press down the door handle.

"Click!"

The door handle was indeed pressed down, and at the same time, he successfully pushed open a gap!

"Succeeded?!" Lin Yi's eyes flashed, feeling as if a "Chinese Lock King" achievement popped on his head.

"Teacher... I'm coming in?" Lin Yi said softly, at the same time, his perception first explored inside the door.

The office lights were on, the items tidily organized, with no sign of anything unusual.

"Could she have left?" Lin Yi thought of Class Teacher-039, could it be Director-040 also left the campus due to contamination?

That might just be a blank period with no director arrival, hence there's no one?

"No."

On the desk, there was no uniform from Director-040.

Back then, Class Teacher-039 had neatly removed the "Class Teacher-039" identity.

His perception touch slowly extended behind the bookshelf, where he sensed strong contamination breath and Director-040's breath!

"Found her!"

His heart stirred, quickly closing the office door, then rushed to that small room.

He pulled back the curtain, and sure enough, Director-040 was there.

However, Director-040 now lay by the bed, she clearly struggled to climb onto the bed, but due to negative status, she exhausted strength, half of her body leaning against the bed edge, passed out, out cold.
