Mu Daxian quietly stretched out his hand and pressed the close button.
"Clang—clang!"
The elevator doors closed quickly, not only startling his classmate but also catching Lin Yi off guard.
Lin Yi hurriedly took a last glance at the Library through the narrowing gap of his classmate.
Unfortunately, his field of view was affected by Mao Feiyang's vision, and despite his best efforts, he could only see a slightly blurred environment.
From his angle, he could only see a wall decorated with carved brown-yellow wooden panels, on which hung a painting framed in a box.
That glimpse passed swiftly, so much so that Lin Yi couldn't even make out the contents of the painting, only sensing it was either an oil painting or some kind of impressionist work. The rough lines and bold strokes outlined what seemed like a corner of a war, or perhaps a ceremony.
It was then that his classmate realized that there was someone in the elevator besides Mao Feiyang, someone he hadn't sensed at all—Mu Daxian.
Mu Daxian slightly shifted his body, moving out from the corner of the elevator and standing between Mao Feiyang and the classmate.
The classmate didn't react at first, until he saw the drawing board carried on Mu Daxian's back...
He turned to run but bumped right into the elevator door.
He turned around with his back against the elevator door, his body trembling, trying to shrink back, but there was no retreat behind him.
Mu Daxian had no intention of making a move, just wrapping his arms across his chest, watching him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
The atmosphere in the elevator gradually became murky, and Lin Yi began to realize that Mu Daxian's presence seemed to exceptionally intimidate the Pseudo-Human type, but he couldn't quite distinguish whether the source of this dread was Mu Daxian himself, or... the drawing board on his back.
That drawing board indeed had some tricks. Like Fei Gong in The King's Avatar, it was just an ordinary drawing tool at first glance, but it could become a highly lethal weapon with some skilled assembly, seemingly even more efficient than a Sports Student's baseball bat.
Soon, the elevator started to slow down again, and when it stopped, a crisp "Ding" sounded.
Lin Yi eagerly looked at the floor display, silently chanting, "Block C," "Block C," "Block C"...
Suddenly, a line of text popped up:
"Teaching Building-A-1F"
"Ah?" Lin Yi was startled, "It's not Teaching Building Block C, but the first floor of Teaching Building A?"
This scene directly shattered Lin Yi's guess, leaving him opening his mouth without knowing what to say.
He looked at the "Teaching Building-A-1F" text with mixed feelings, a sense of loss rising in his heart, and at the same time, he felt more baffled about the secrets of Teaching Building D Block.
After all this guessing, not even a consolation prize?
That's too hurtful!
The only valuable clue he got from this elevator ride was that [on the way from the Art Building to the Teaching Building via elevator, it passes by the Library].
"But... after pressing '↓' near the Art Building, it first goes to the Library and then to the Teaching Building. Could it be... that the Library is located on floors 4-8 of the Teaching Building?"
When the floors distort, floors 4-8 of the Teaching Building might also get twisted to near the "Library-102" lamppost!
The stairs in the Teaching Building can even lead to the dormitory, so a little softness and slack on floors 4-8 is not unacceptable!
In the split second of Lin Yi's pondering, the student leaning against the elevator door swiftly changed from facing away to facing forward, trying to wedge through the door gap and burst out of the elevator.
Mu Daxian watched his fleeing figure indifferently, making no move to act, but waited for him to run far before he walked out of the elevator with Mao Feiyang.
"Was that... a Pseudo-Human Art Student just now?" Mao Feiyang asked shakily.
"That's right," Mu Daxian responded, "He was probably planning to go to the Cafeteria for dinner, didn't expect to run into me."
"They seem very afraid of you?"
"If you've done something guilty, of course, you'd be afraid of being called out, come on, I'll take you to the Cafeteria."
"Uh... okay."
...
After speaking, Mu Daxian led Mao Feiyang out of Teaching Building A Block, stepping on the steps to the Cobblestone path, but he only walked a few steps before taking Mao Feiyang off the Cobblestone path and into the mountain path.
Mao Feiyang didn't understand why but silently followed, while Lin Yi watched, his eyelids twitching sharply.
Mu Daxian actually avoided the Cobblestone path?!
He quickly noticed that Mu Daxian was navigating through the mountain path without the Cobblestone, occasionally parting some scattered branches, then arriving at a lamppost.
This lamppost stood amidst overgrown weeds and bushes. Mu Daxian crouched down to clear the base of the lamppost from dead branches and leaves, then stood up and gently caressed the lamppost, a somewhat desolate look in his eyes.
He then took out a painting brush from his bag and slowly began drawing on the lamppost.
Lin Yi watched with incomprehension as the character "孝" appeared under Mu Daxian's brush, his heart jolting as if guessing something, and sure enough, when Mu Daxian finished, a "teach" character written in what looked like pure white paint appeared on the lamppost!
"Teaching Building?!"
"Is Mu Daxian labeling the lamppost?!"
"Is this 'pranking', or is he actually labeling the lamppost?"
