There was another fucking person?!
When had it appeared?!
This was supposed to be a journey for two. How had it become a story about three?!
As though sensing Lin Yi's gaze, the "person" lying on Wei Liang's back squirmed slightly, then slowly, ever so slowly... raised its head:
[Hehehehe... you... finally... saw... me!!]
It raised its head, revealing an abstract face with features scattered all over it.
The face had first been molded out of modeling clay, and whoever had fashioned it had been extremely unskilled, resulting in its distorted features. But Lin Yi soon discovered that those features had not completely set. They were still constantly squirming, as though searching for their proper places.
And that mouth kept speaking as it squirmed into shape. Its voice had originally been an obscure, incomprehensible scream of pain, but gradually, it became a voice Lin Yi could understand:
[Hehehe... I'm Lin Yi. My student number is 0230506098...]
[Hehehehe...]
[Hehehe...]
[I'm Lin Yi...]
As it spoke, its scattered facial features began moving into place. A few seconds later, they actually bore Lin Yi's outline!
Its arms also began lengthening like noodles being shaken out, turning into plaster-like tentacles in a solid-liquid mixed state that stretched toward Lin Yi's school uniform pocket, seemingly intent on forcibly rummaging through it for his Student ID!
But just as its tentacle was about to touch the hem of Lin Yi's clothes, a hand wrapped in a bedsheet smacked it hard aside like a slap across the face.
