My skill tree increases every day.

Lin Yu quietly walked out through the back door of the club activity room.

I sneaked into the photography club's activity room.

The photography club's activity room is on the other side of the activity center building, separated from the music club by a long corridor.

The key to the club activity room was not in Lin Yu's possession; each club had a designated person to keep it safe.

Clearly, the person who kept the key to the photography club's activity room was not Lin Yu.

Generally speaking, members like Lin Yu who don't have a key need to register at the central control center on the first floor to get a spare key if they want to enter the club activity room.

Or go find the classmate who has the key.

However, most students in the clubs felt that this was too troublesome.

The key is usually hidden near the main entrance of the activity room.

Lin Yu wasn't bragging, but as far as he knew, there were at least five places on this floor where the keys to the various club activity rooms were hidden.

If we put in the effort to look again, we might be able to find a few more.

Actually, everyone knew more or less where the keys to several other clubs were hidden. It's just that no one spoke up.

It primarily serves to protect against honest people, not scoundrels.

In case someone really does have a moment of madness and wants to steal something,

I wouldn't dare say the entire school, but at least the public space of this university activity center has 100% surveillance coverage.

There was absolutely no room to hide.

The photography club hid the key on top of the emergency light at the entrance of the club activity room.

The lamp was hung on the wall about two and a half meters high. Most people wouldn't notice it unless they looked up.

If you hide the keys on it, no one, unless they are a very tall man over 2.8 meters, will be able to spot the extra keys with the naked eye.

Lin Yu reached out and pulled out a few keys from the emergency light.

After a quick check, Lin Yu put the key to the activity room next door back.

Open the door to the photography club's activity room.

The activity room didn't have many of the previous items. There were only some reflectors, tripods, and fill lights.

People will take good care of the truly valuable items, such as cameras and lenses.

Of course, this excludes Lin Yu's film camera, which he bought at a secondhand market.

Something bought for around two hundred yuan isn't worth anyone stealing.

Of course, Lin Yu had also heard that people from the art club would occasionally come over and use that thing as a still life for sketching.

The film camera he had found at the flea market was now prominently displayed on the showcase in the middle of the activity room.

It was displayed in the center as the most prized possession of the organization. Anyone who wanted to take a photo in that best display stand had to reverently invite the ancestor down before they could use it.

Although they usually just leave the old ancestor to gather dust in a corner afterward, no one ever takes the initiative to take a couple of pictures of him.

Speaking of which, a simple darkroom was even prepared in the corner of the activity room specifically for the old ancestor. It was a space enclosed by an iron frame and several pieces of thick, opaque black cloth.

Although it was only used once.

But it still fully demonstrates the community's respect for its ancestor!

This is Wu Jing, where every inch of land is incredibly valuable. Although the real estate industry has been sluggish in recent years, even a fraction of the price in that area could still buy countless rolls of film wholesale.

Lin Yu's main purpose in coming this time was to reactivate this darkroom.

I still have quite a few photos that haven't been developed yet!

Lin Yu tidied up the darkroom and went in with his camera.

The thick, opaque cloth blocked out the light, with only a single, dark red safety light hanging in the air.

Open the camera back cover and pry out the film roll inside.

Although Lin Yu had said that everyone could use it freely, it seemed that no one had ever used this old relic.

Is anyone there?

Just as Lin Yu took out the film roll, a voice rang out from outside.

"Wait a mininute!"

Lin Yu called out to the outside.

Lin Yu was mainly worried that the people outside would get impatient and come in to rummage through the area. This simple darkroom, enclosed by a black cloth, couldn't be locked, and if the guy outside opened the door, the film would be exposed, which would be terrible.

After tidying up his things, Lin Yu lifted the curtain of the darkroom and came out.

A girl was standing in the activity room, wearing large round-framed glasses, a simple white T-shirt, and denim shorts.

If Lin Yu's memory serves him correctly, this person is not from the photography club.

"Hey, classmate, I'm from the art club. I'm here to borrow something from you."

Xia Xiaoyu felt a little embarrassed.

Their art club has a fun little game where the loser has to borrow some items from other clubs for everyone to sketch.

Of course, if you are really socially anxious and don't want to go, you can also offer yourself as a model.

Coincidentally, she lost today.

Xia Xiaoyu really didn't want to be a model sitting in the middle being drawn by everyone, so although she felt a little embarrassed, she still mustered up the courage to speak.

"Borrow what?"

"Lend me a fill light, a tarpaulin, and your old camera."

So the legend was true! People from the art club really do come to borrow that thing!

But doesn't your art club have its own still life objects? You have to borrow them.

"Okay, wait a moment."

Lin Yu turned and went back into the darkroom. Since the film was already out, lending them the camera wouldn't hurt.

"But you guys actually lack something like this?"

"Yeah, you get tired of drawing the same things every time, right?" Xia Xiaoyu replied. "You guys probably don't want to film the same things every time either, do you?"

"That's true."

That makes some sense.

"Okay, I'll go get it."

Lin Yu turned and walked into the simple darkroom.

When I came out again, I had an old camera in my hand.

"Is this... a darkroom?"

"yes."

"Do you still have a darkroom? Then this one, it wouldn't happen to be usable, would it?"

Xia Xiaoyu pointed to the camera in Lin Yu's hand, her tone revealing a clear surprise.

"I always thought those were antiques you kept as decorations!"

"It works, of course it works, otherwise why would we have this darkroom?"

Lin Yu pointed to the darkroom behind him and answered confidently that although the darkroom had only been used on the day it was set up.

After that, Lin Yu asked everyone in the club, and their answers were surprisingly consistent.

SLR cameras are still the best!

Lin Yu handed the camera to Xia Xiaoyu, gave her a fill light, and thoughtfully folded the blouse and draped it over her shoulders.

That's all.

"Thank you so much, classmate. How will I return it to you later?"

"Um……"

Although everyone knew where they were hiding it, Lin Yu didn't want to bring it up directly.

"How about this, let's exchange contact information, and talk again when it's convenient for us."
