Chapter 581: Sweeping the Tomatoes


Lin Yi's body suddenly stiffened, and he turned back in disbelief, only to see Old Mo, although stiff, still continuing to say, "...boy..."

"Old Mo!" Lin Yi's eyes were filled with surprise and joy. He quickly went to Old Mo, "Have you recovered?!"

Old Mo's reaction seemed a bit slow. Hearing Lin Yi's words, his body remained very stiff, but the relief in his eyes was unmistakable: "You... are back..."

"I came back along the path you arranged!" Lin Yi wanted to say more, but Wei Shan interjected, "Old Lin, let's eat first."

Lin Yi also nodded, "Oh right, Old Mo, we'll go eat first, we can talk later."

Old Mo stiffly nodded his head, like a slow-moving cuckoo clock.

It seemed Old Mo was recovering well. Lin Yi was truly very happy; it was one of the best pieces of news he got today.

Pulling aside the plastic curtain, stepping into the Student Cafeteria, Lin Yi was surprised to find quite a number of students having their proper meal.

He then focused his attention on the meal purchase windows, taking a quick glance. Surprisingly, all five meal purchase windows were open, and the chefs inside seemed perfectly normal.

He was a bit puzzled, even instinctively questioning the scene he saw during breakfast earlier in the day.

"This seems too fake..." Lin Yi couldn't help but say.

"What part seems fake?" Wei Liang asked.

Lin Yi replied, "In just half a day, the cafeteria is restored?"

Wei Liang shook his head, "No idea! Let's eat, why care so much?"

"Hmm, you're right." Lin Yi nodded, recovery is a good thing.

Though he couldn't help glancing over at the number 10 meal purchase window.

But this time he saw, the number 10 meal purchase window was completely dark, neither people queuing nor the outline of the window was visible; it looked like the entire meal purchase window had sunk into the ocean.

"The number 10 window is unclear, it indeed got blown up quite a bit by Kuai Kuai..."

He slowly released his perception, gradually reflecting the surrounding environment into his mind, and attempted to probe into the darkness, trying to observe the number 10 meal purchase window.

As his perception entered the darkness, a faint dizziness was fed back into his consciousness.

"One cafeteria, two layers!" Lin Yi understood gradually, the multi-layered theory of the napkin confirmed.

That other channel is actually the entrance to another layer of the cafeteria.

Polluters—whether Sports Student or Art Student—all dine in that layer.

The whole passage is essentially a "Layer Transition" pathway.

The concept of layer transition pathways is certainly esoteric, but just like how the official found the transformation pathways for some polluters, the campus builders must have figured out some layer-level pathways, establishing the campus.

Just like the elevator from the campus to the Art Building.

Ultimately, they're all pathways developed by official modification.

And when Experience Student sees Sports Student or Art Student in the cafeteria, it's the result of layer interpenetration.

In each other's eyes, the person might still be the same, but in their own eyes, the environment where the other resides might differ greatly from their perception.

And the Chef in the green apron, should belong to that layer of the number 10 window.

He looked around but couldn't find the Chef in the green apron.

For some reason, he felt a bit unhappy inside.

He was here to sweep tomatoes, but the tomato vine wasn't here?

Can't they be a little more dedicated?

"Wei Sang, why can't I find the Chef in the green apron?" Lin Yi asked, "Have you found any trace of them?"

Wei Shan shook his head, "No... so has your sweeping plan failed?"

Lin Yi pursed his lips, "Not completely failed I guess..."

After all, the number 10 meal purchase window got blown up, the green apron chef was somewhat affected...

"Ah!" Lin Yi's eyes sparkled, raising his finger to the sky, in an Iron Bull beef noodle soup pose, "Got it!"

"What do you mean?" Wei Shan asked.

Lin Yi said, "When we place the meal trays, a Chef in the green apron will pop out from the number 10 meal window, we can just wait and see?"

"But, the number 10 window is blown up!"

"Blown up is blown up, never underestimate the power of mechanisms!" Lin Yi said, "If we really don't have tomatoes later, we can stakeout and pick a few."

Wei Shan's eyes lit up, instantly getting excited, "I like this!"

Wei Liang's mouth twitched, looking like he'd rather ignore their antics, pretending not to know anything.

It was soon his turn to order food, but his focus seemed to be elsewhere, so Lin Yi couldn't help but elbow him, "Liangzi."

"Huh?"

"It's your turn to order."

"Ah, oh oh oh, Auntie, one large tomato fried small tomato uh no, one serving of potato beef rice!" Under the bizarre gaze of the Blue-aproned Chef, Wei Liang wiped some sweat, murmuring to himself nervously, "Oops my big bean, what did I just say..."

"Do you eat tomatoes often...?" Lin Yi asked softly.

"I eat your big hammer, what tomatoes I totally don't understand!" Wei Liang picked up his tray and headed to the card-swiping machine, Lin Yi walked to the window.

But just as he approached the window, vaguely, he could sense the presence of the Chef in the green apron!

Following that feeling, he looked over and saw an illusory image of the Chef in the green apron on Wei Liang's moving path.

The Chef in the green apron was still standing at the place where the yogurt was sneakily swapped, but the figure seemed dim, as if the layer had not fully penetrated over.
