Chapter 63 - 63 30 Wrapped Up

63: Chapter 30: Wrapped Up 63: Chapter 30: Wrapped Up Suddenly, the chef in the blue apron seemed to sense something, and he abruptly discarded the milk he was holding, then mysteriously produced a tomato from somewhere and handed it to the student who was swiping their card nearby.

After the student finished swiping their card, they quickly retrieved their Student ID card, but they did not realize that the milk had been replaced with a tomato.

In a rush, they grabbed it from the tray and walked away with their meal.

During the entire meal-purchasing process, this student was exceedingly cautious.

Nevertheless, when he picked up the milk, he still did not notice the change in how it felt…

The gaze of the chef in the blue apron began to drift away from Lin Yi and Wei Liang.

With an extremely slow pace, he tilted his head and then slowly shifted his stiff body, focusing all his attention on the student’s retreating figure.

He licked the tomato sauce at the corner of his mouth, and it seemed as if a faint glint of gold flashed deep within his eye sockets.

Then, he slowly began walking towards the student.

…

“Huh?”

As Lin Yi was heading toward the table, he suddenly noticed that the ominous and dangerous aura that had been enveloping him had diminished somewhat.

He did not understand why, but given the double trouble he had just faced with the weird student and the green apron chef, he was nowhere near letting his guard down now.

He and Wei Liang continued to weave through the Student Cafeteria, and finally, in the bustling crowd, they found a table in a relatively well-lit area and sat down.

After placing his tray down, Lin Yi did not hurry to eat; instead, he thoroughly inspected all the dishes on his tray to ensure none contained any tomato element before he started to eat.

Wei Liang watched Lin Yi.

From the moment Lin Yi finished inspecting the dishes to the moment he bowed his head to take his first bite, his face almost seemed buried in the tray.

“Old Lin…?”

Wei Liang had a vague sense of something amiss, and as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard Lin Yi lower his voice and issue a stern warning: “Liangzi, listen to me, keep your head down and eat!”

“Ah?

Oh…

okay, okay!” Seeing Lin Yi so solemn, Wei Liang did not raise any questions, although confused, but decisively followed the instruction.

“Before you eat, check your food again for anything that contains tomato element!”

As Lin Yi spoke, he wolfed down his food, wishing he could eat it all at once and then flee the Cafeteria.

Hearing the word “tomato,” Wei Liang also immediately realized the severity of the situation.

He hurriedly sifted through his food with his chopsticks, inspecting it carefully, but ultimately found nothing.

“Old Lin, there’s no tomato in my food.”

“Good, start eating now.

Don’t care how delicious the food is, just hurry up and eat so we can leave!”

“Oh, oh…

okay.” Wei Liang took Lin Yi’s words without a fraction of doubt.

“And…”

“Yeah, Old Lin, you say…”

“Stop shaking your leg.”

“…” Wei Liang replied plaintively, “Erm…

Old Lin, I saw you panicking, couldn’t help but start shaking.”

“Then shake the other leg, your right shoe got some tomato sauce on it.”

“Okay, okay– wait, what?!

You said toma–”

Wei Liang’s voice shot up eight decibels, as if he was on an ejector seat, subconsciously about to launch from his dining chair.

But Lin Yi, prepared, grabbed his head with a reflexive hand and shoved his face into the tray, abruptly muffling all sound.

“…sauce gurgle gurgle…?!”

“Old Lin you gurgle gurgle…

it’s not you wait…

gurgle gurgle…”

While his head was being held down, Wei Liang’s hands flailed in panic.

After a struggle, he finally swatted away Lin Yi’s hand.

“I’m saying…

cough cough!

Cough cough cough!!

Old Lin, you…

you damn wanna drown me in my food?”

He said, his face turning red with frustration.

Lin Yi also felt a bit embarrassed and quickly said, “Hear me out, no, let me explain.

I was just worried you’d overreact and attract unnecessary attention…

So, Liangzi, listen to me, your shoe got some tomato sauce on it.”

Wei Liang instinctively reached for his right shoe.

“Don’t take your shoe off!” Lin Yi stopped him, “According to the rules, it’s okay to take off and throw away your shoes, but…

don’t do it here in the Cafeteria!”

Cafeteria Rule No.

11:

[After leaving the Cafeteria, please take off your clothes immediately, check if there’s any tomato sauce on them, and if there is, throw them into the nearest trash can (note: throw them into a trash can, do not litter!)]

Wei Liang’s hand, which was about to touch his right foot, paused mid-air.

At this critical moment, his mind worked rapidly, naturally recalling this rule.

He nodded, “I…

understand, so we finish eating and then leave right away?”

“Exactly!” Lin Yi replied gravely, “Cafeteria rules are absolutely correct, do you remember the very first rule written?

From now on we don’t care about anything, just eat and run!”

“I underestimated the potential danger of the Cafeteria last time, and was a bit careless, now the situation is different, we must leave the Cafeteria as soon as possible!”

“Then shall we just not eat at all?” Wei Liang was about to blurt out this question, but his rationality suppressed it.

Because he had been here before, he was all the more aware of the potential dangers of the Cafeteria.
