"Why is my luck so bad?"
Mono was a bit depressed.
He remembered that the ball he threw in the square went in.
But what was with always running into trouble?
Why did things always go in the opposite direction?
Sam followed by Mono's side.
She also saw that familiar face again.
The Long-Neck Teacher certainly left a deep impression; she could be recognized at a single glance.
"Why are we coming here..."
Sam spoke quietly.
Although she wasn't afraid, she didn't have a good impression of the monster Female Teacher in front of her either.
"The elevator key is inside."
Mono pointed to the compartment across from the classroom and explained to her.
Sam fell silent.
After a while, she asked, "How do we get across?"
Mono observed the teacher's movements.
The teacher was teaching very seriously now, just like in the game, holding a piece of chalk and copying something onto the blackboard from time to time.
And the "students" below were also listening attentively, each staring at the blackboard.
"I'll go around from the back. Sam, you wait for me here." Mono put down the hammer in his hand and said to Sixth Master.
As long as the teacher and the Ceramic Figurines continued to maintain such a serious attitude, he was very confident.
Hearing this, Sam shook her head:
"I want to go in too..."
"But, your hand..." Mono said.
Of course, he wanted Sixth Master to come, but could she still move so nimbly while injured?
"I won't get it dirty."
Sam shook her head and explained.
Mono was speechless.
Why are they both human, but their focus is so different?
In this life-threatening situation, who would care about getting dirty?
"Is that not okay?" Sam asked.
"Of course you can, let's go."
Mono did not refuse.
Sixth Master wasn't a little girl; he naturally didn't need to worry about her.
Sam skillfully took Mono's hand.
Mono paced himself and, while the teacher turned her head, slowly crawled in.
Sam followed behind without a word.
"Click, click, click~"
The sound of the chalk hitting the blackboard became even clearer.
Other than that, the classroom was silent without any other sound.
If someone loved learning, they would definitely enjoy sitting in this kind of environment for class.
Mono pulled Sam and slowly crawled behind the first Ceramic Figurine in the last row.
High stacks of books were placed on the Ceramic Figurine's desk.
Books like "Three-Year Simulation" or "Five-Year College Entrance Exam" were completely absent.
Mono glanced at them.
He found that they were all quite strange books.
"Popular Crime, the Evil Art of Death?"
Mono expressed his confusion.
Can you still read extracurricular books during class?
These bratty kids really don't know the importance of listening carefully in class at all.
If you don't take notes on what the teacher says, you'll be crying during the exam.
While he was lost in thought, the teacher at the blackboard suddenly stopped her movements, and the classroom instantly fell into a dead silence.
Mono hurriedly stopped in his tracks.
The figures of the two of them hid behind the back of one of the Little people.
After a while, the "clack, clack, clack~" sound resumed.
Mono poked his head out and saw that the teacher had started writing on the blackboard again.
The teacher works so hard, it's not easy up there, yet the students below are reading extracurricular books.
For once, Mono felt a rare sense of sympathy for the female teacher.
Then, he continued pulling Little Six toward the second Table.
Soon, the two of them reached the back of another of the Little people.
With their figures hidden in the shadows, the two moved and stopped in turns, and soon they successfully crossed the classroom and reached the partition.
Standing on the floor inside the partition, Mono breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really worried that the teacher would suddenly scream.
Inside the partition, several large iron cabinets were placed.
"Quick, look around; the elevator key should be here."
Mono recalled.
Little Six nodded and began searching around the partition.
Before long, Mono discovered a bookshelf.
The bookshelf was very tall, thin, and long, but it was packed with books, looking as if it might collapse under the weight at any moment.
"It seems to be this rack."
He remembered that in the game, the key seemed to be placed on a rack that was about to fall over.
"Hey, come here."
Mono called out to Sixth Master.
"After I push it over, we'll hide in that corner."
The bookshelf was too precarious to climb, so Mono could only push it over.
The commotion of the bookshelf falling would definitely attract the teacher from the classroom, so they had to find a place to hide.
The iron cabinet in the corner was the best choice.
Little Six nodded.
Mono pulled her to the side.
Then, he walked to the base of the bookshelf and, with a small leap, clung onto it.
The bookshelf, which was already on the verge of collapsing, completely lost its balance the moment Mono's weight was added.
The wooden bookshelf let out a strained "creak" as it was crushed.
Then, the angle slowly tilted, falling toward where Mono was.
Mono hurriedly jumped off the bookshelf and then pulled Little Six away to a safer distance.
"Boom!"
The bookshelf crashed completely onto the floor.
Next, a metallic object flew out from the top of the fallen bookshelf and rolled several times on the floor.
Mono's eyes lit up; it was indeed a key.
However, before he could go pick it up...
"Ang~"
A sudden, sharp, and urgent screech came from the classroom outside the partition.
Then, the "clack-clack-clack~" sound of high heels slowly approached them.
"Quick, hide~"
Mono's heart skipped a beat.
He hurriedly pulled Sixth Master and ran to the cabinet from before.
The two of them crawled inside.
There were no lights in the room, and now that the two were hiding in the box, they were even more well-concealed.
Soon, the half-closed door was suddenly pushed open by an external force.
Light from the classroom instantly spilled inside.
A strange sound followed, like the goosebump-inducing creaking sound of a giant rubber band that was already stretched tight being pulled even further by an external force.
The teacher's head suddenly stretched inside.
There seemed to be some confusion in her eyes.
She looked down at the fallen cabinet, her large head looking left and right.
Seeing nothing in the room, she continued to stretch further inside.
Soon, her head had reached above the fallen cabinet.
Then it stretched over to the cabinet beside it.
She turned around at will, stretching and shrinking as she pleased.
Mono could only see a certain shadow being stretched very long.
After a while, the sound of heavy breathing came from above their heads.
"Holy crap, Teacher, why are you searching so thoroughly?"
Mono was speechless but hurriedly focused and stayed on guard.
Although the teacher didn't find them in the game, who knew if some unexpected change would occur here?
Fortunately, however, the sound of breathing gradually faded away.
The teacher's shadow slowly shortened.
Mono watched as she retracted her head.
Then...
*Bang!*
The previously half-closed door was slammed shut.
The teacher had left.
