The students looked at each other, and finally, their eyes fell on a tall boy.
"Yang Yi and Lin Zihang are the closest. They share a tent."
Tu Dan asked the boy, "Yang Yi, was there anything unusual about Lin Zihang yesterday? Where did you go?"
"No…" The tall boy's eyes were red, and he said hoarsely, "He was fine when we came back last night. We chatted for a while and then went to bed… I woke up first in the morning and called him to get up. He was in a daze. I thought he didn't get enough sleep, so I went to wash up first."
He buried his head, as if he couldn't face what had happened to his classmate, his voice gradually choked, "…Then, it became like this."
"It shouldn't have turned into this for no reason. Think about it carefully." Bai Youwei asked, "Could he have gone out after you fell asleep?"
Yang Yi hugged his head and couldn't speak.
At this moment, Zhang Tianyang in the crowd suddenly let out an "ah."
Everyone looked at him.
Zhang Tianyang said, "Lin Zihang seems to have gone to the toilet at night. I slept late last night and heard someone coming out of the tent next door, but I'm not sure who it was. Now that I think about it… If Yang Yi was asleep, then it should be Lin Zihang."
Shen Mo caught the key point, and his brow furrowed: "Are there any mirrors where you go to the toilet?"
"Yes, but we've covered them all." Zhang Tianyang stood up and said, "I'll take you there."
…
The place where the students went to the toilet was a corner away from the center of the maze. It was an "L" shaped cafe.
The facilities in the cafe were basically intact, and there was a separate bathroom inside.
Almost all the reflective objects around were covered with paper or cloth, and the mirror in the bathroom was also covered with a cafe brochure, which was tightly sealed with tape.
Shen Mo glanced around.
Then, he looked up at the ceiling.
The ceiling was mirrored.
Those who followed Shen Mo's gaze all gasped.
Needless to say, everyone stepped back in unison until they retreated outside the cafe door… After that, they returned to the center of the maze without a word.
After they went back, Lin Zihang had completely turned into a human doll.
Tu Dan pulled up the zipper of the tent door curtain and sealed Lin Zihang's doll inside, as if the heaviness in her heart would be relieved as long as she couldn't see him.
And the plan to push the maze was put on hold.
Because every student's psychology had been impacted, Tu Dan, the teacher in charge of the team, was also very confused and couldn't make up her mind, so she could only rest in place.
While resting, they also found more paper and tape, and they pasted paper on all the mirrors they could see.
As for Shen Mo and Bai Youwei, they continued to explore the maze according to the route as usual.
Bai Youwei was thinking about the doll on the way, a little absent-minded, so the counting work was left to Teacher Cheng. Following yesterday's path and continuing to explore deeper, they found dolls in a passage-
-Sunk in the concrete wall, only the head and shoulders were exposed, about a dozen or so.
But looking ahead, the number increased.
The passage came to an end, and then turned a corner, and another passage leading to the "door" appeared in front of them.
Like the previous one, both sides were densely packed with dolls.
The four of them stood still at the intersection for a long time, and no one took a step forward.
Teacher Cheng looked at his companions with lingering fear: "Should we go back and inform them?"
Shen Mo thought for a while, and said, "Let's move on."
He looked down at Bai Youwei and asked, "What do you think?"
Bai Youwei stared at the unopened door for a long time, and said, "Since the exit is not unique, let's move on."
