And if they encountered Abnormal Weather and could not find a nearby building, they could shelter at the Cafeteria entrance as a last resort-this provision actually told Experience Students to anchor themselves to the birdcage's Framework, like clinging to driftwood in the water, so they would not be left without any chance of survival.
At that moment, with Tian Bufan's reminder, Lin Yi immediately grasped the whole picture from a single insight, completely working out the Underlying Logic in the "Cafeteria Rules"
as well.
But the more he understood, the more he felt that these few thin pages of "Cafeteria Rules" were truly bizarre and pure.
"I can't imagine what sort of twisted genius could have compiled rules like these," he could not help marveling.
