Chapter 105: Mirror
Li Ang’s footsteps faltered imperceptibly as he stepped out of the school gate. He glanced at the surrounding students and parents, whose expressions were normal, took a deep breath, and squeezed through the crowd.
[Task Type: Script Task (Team)]
[Task Name: Campus Past]
[Task Objective: By 19:00 tonight, remain alone in front of the mirror in the sealed washroom, waiting for teleportation.]
[Task Reward: Will be announced upon receiving the next task prompt.]
[Failure Penalty: Erasure]
This task, like the one in the mall, did not directly reveal the task objective or the reward.
If last time Li Ang could collect some key data regarding Longheng Mall, then this time the task was a complete shot in the dark.
The only two pieces of information available for analysis are ’Campus Past’ and ’the mirror in the sealed washroom.’
Li Ang mounted his bicycle and rode in the direction of his home, musing to himself,
Past refers to things that have happened before, but which school could it be? Could it be the Experimental Middle School of Yin City? Or a school in another area, or even in another time and space? Remaining alone in front of the mirror in the sealed washroom sounds a lot like those supernatural games in urban legends. I could perhaps start from a religious and occult perspective and collect some data on related rituals.
Li Ang didn’t go straight home but first went to a public restroom to change his appearance. Dressed as a tall and thin young man, he then went to a furniture store and bought six medium-sized floor mirrors often used in clothing stores. He tied them together and placed them on the rear seat of his bicycle.
