Chapter II
"Eise! Come on! ”
Chen Zhi's clear voice floated in from the window, I hurriedly put on my clothes, grabbed my school bag, picked up the bread on the table haphazardly, and shouted to my aunt, who didn't know if it was at home: "Goodbye, aunt!" He hurried downstairs. After my parents died, my only surviving relative, my aunt, adopted me, and she was the third creature in the legend: the Female Doctor. She has no family, no lovers, and runs a large high-tech company. I see her occasionally, but more often than not. However, it was convenient for me to talk with An Yin in the evening. The girl who calls me out there is my best friend Chen Zhi, we have known each other since I was 7 years old, and she knows almost everything about me, except for the lone spirit and the spirit tamer, of course.
"You're always lazy." Chen Zhi reproached, but his eyes were smiling.
As I gulped down my bread, I shrugged helplessly and said vaguely, "No way, the bed is too comfortable." Moreover, scientific studies have shown that people who love lazy beds have higher IQs. ”
"You can't stop eating."
"Compared to He An's sleeping with his eyes open, I'm already normal."
At the mention of He An, Chen Zhi sneered and laughed, and then said, "You! will be compared to him! By the way, it's your birthday in one day, how are you going to spend it? ”
I was suddenly stunned and hurriedly said, "Well, this year's birthday is over." ”
"Why?" Chen Zhi looked at me with wide eyes.
"So, well, my aunt happened to have something to do that night, and we weren't at home, so I won't celebrate my birthday with you." I lied without changing my face. I had to lie, and I knew full well that in the future, I would lie more, and I would weave these lies into the tightest net that covered the terrible secret of the lonely soul. A feeling of sadness welled up in my heart, no one wants to lie.
"I see, but we can hang out together this weekend, and we can help you celebrate your birthday."
"Okay, okay, I remember there's a new ice cream parlor on Hongmen Street, it seems to be great, and I just want to go over and eat it."
"That's it, we're going to have ice cream there on Saturday afternoon, I know you're going to have mint-flavored ice cream again, right?"
"That has to be." I have a soft spot for mint-flavored ice cream, the head-to-toe chill that makes me shiver and make me nostalgic, and the touch of green should be beautiful.
I went to school while chatting.
It's about to start a boring day again. An Yin told me that the spirit tamer has the ability to be immortal, and that his appearance will stop at one day in his first hundred years, and I don't know when I will stop moving forward and start a cycle without beginning and end.
I sat by the window, the sunlight sifting through the plane trees outside the window, leaving spots of light on the table, and I traced the strange spots with my fingers, and I never tired of it. It was the closest I got to real visuals, and when I traced the shapes, I felt like I really saw them. Sometimes I like to look through the window at the people dotted around the teaching building, and observe their dress and appearance with a second sight.
This time, I saw a guy in his early 20s that I had never seen before, who was supposed to be an intern. He wore a white shirt and a black satchel cross-body, and his metal glasses reflected the harsh light in the sunlight, making people's eyes hurt. Fortunately, I couldn't see the light, so I could look straight at him. He seemed to notice my gaze, looked up, looked at me, and his clear gaze went straight to the bottom of my eyes. My heart began to beat violently, and it was not the usual gaze, but a real eye contact. Extreme excitement and fear intertwined in my heart, and I couldn't breathe. He's definitely not human. I used my psychic power to see the specific information about him in the notebook in his bag.
"Meng Yishi! You have the answer to this question! ”
I came back to my senses, stood up abruptly, and looked at the beautiful and evil physics teacher Lao Mi with a blank face, and He An not far away was squeezing his eyebrows at me. Glancing out the window again, the man was gone.
Forget it, go back and ask An Yin what the hell is going on.
"Look out! If you like it so much, just go straight to the outside class! Lao Mi's originally beautiful face was a little distorted in anger. The other sleepy classmates also straightened up, and Lao Mi was really angry.
But I couldn't help but look out.
The class burst into laughter.
"Get out!" Lao Mi slammed the book hard.
I honestly walked out, and the moment I went out, I looked out again.
"Don't come back!" Old Mi's angry voice exploded behind me with the sound of slamming the door.
This isn't the first time I've taken a class outside the door, and it certainly won't be the last. Thanks to the tamer's extraordinary memory, my grades were barely in the middle.
I leaned against the wall, sunlight pouring down from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hallway, and she kissed me all around me. I stood in the middle of the gold, closed my eyes, and imagined what color gold was.
The sound of hurried footsteps came from far and near, and it was the first time I had heard such a sound, but I felt familiar. I craned my neck to look past, and used my spiritual power without hesitation. I was amazed to find that something was holding me back, even making my second vision faint. I started to get scared, but I desperately adjusted my breathing, and I could only choose to believe that the spiritual power left to me by my parents would protect me well.
A pair of white sneakers stopped in front of my eyes, and without looking up, I could already recognize him as the boy he had just had. What amazed me even more was that I was able to see him, not by second sight, but by my truest vision, with my eyes that had been blind for nearly seventeen years. At that moment, all my vigilance relaxed. He is not dangerous. I had this message replaying clearly in my head. When I looked up, I saw a heroic face, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, exactly as described in the novel. I greedily enjoyed the incredible vision of the moment, I looked at him, at every detail of him.
A white, slender finger shook in front of my eyes.
"Classmate, are you alright?"
Realizing my impoliteness, I quickly withdrew my gaze, my cheeks a little hot, and I shook my head hesitantly.
He suddenly laughed, showed two rows of white teeth, and asked, "What did you do to get kicked out?" His smile was warm and bright, and I wondered if it was the same when An Yin smiled.
I stood up straight, lowered my head, and whispered, "Because I've been looking outside, and I saw you just now." ”
"You should look at the teacher in class, and there is no one outside to teach you," his eyes were reproachful and loving, he looked up at my classroom sign and smiled in surprise: "Are you from this class?" Coincidentally, I was the art trainee teacher in this class. I have my class in the afternoon. ”
I smiled and made a respectful look: "Hello teacher." ”
He scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Actually, I'm not much older than you, don't call me teacher when you leave the classroom!" They all call me old, even though I'm quite old. ”
The phone in his backpack vibrated at an inopportune time, and he smiled apologetically, pointed to the phone in his hand and went to answer the call.
I looked at him and heard him whisper, "Okay, I'll be there soon." ”
He waved at me, said "I'll see you in the afternoon," and left in a hurry.
I stood there and seemed to see the bright golden sun. I decided not to tell An Yin about this man, because according to his personality, he would definitely keep me away from him and watch out for him, but I could clearly feel that he was safe. I felt that the few minutes I spent with him were the first few minutes I had been a human being since I was 7 years old.
Every cell in my body was cheering for the afternoon art class, and it was the first time I was so excited and excited. Excitement can always blind people to the obvious.
Sure enough, it was him, and before the person arrived, I felt his breath. The only difference is that he changed into a neat suit, and the whole person looks heroic, but his young face still shows a trace of nervousness and uneasiness.
"Qi Yan"
He quickly wrote these two words on the blackboard and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Qi Yan, and I will be your art teacher in the coming semester." I'm just a college student, but I'm actually about the same age as everyone else, and outside of the classroom, I can be friends with everyone, and you don't have to be so inhibited. ”
As soon as the words ended, the classroom erupted in warm applause, and the girls especially drummed hard, and I noticed that several girls had straight eyes and kept whispering, "So handsome, so handsome." His eyes cautiously scanned everyone's faces, and by the time I arrived, his gaze immediately relaxed and he smiled knowingly. He still remembers me. I smiled at him.
A girl raised her hand high and asked loudly, "Teacher, do you have a girlfriend?" ”
"Wow!" The boys started to heckle.
Qi Yan pushed his glasses and said, "I have a girl I like, but it's a pity that it's unrequited love." Okay, what about personal matters, let's discuss it after class, and we still have to learn to draw in class. Next, let's take a look at ......"
At that moment, I suddenly felt a little sad, for him, for the girl who missed him.
It was the only class I had where I didn't look out, I didn't trace the light spots. I looked at him earnestly, enjoying the sight that I had been away from for a long time. Unfortunately, I can still only see him, and I still rely on second sight for others. But it's a good start, and since I can see him, I'm sure I'll see others in the future. Just when I was rejoicing, I suddenly remembered how I felt when I first saw him. The pen I was spinning in my hand stopped abruptly, as if something was wrong. I was so caught up in the joy of getting vision that I lost sight of one very important thing: he wasn't human.
So what is he? Is it a spirit tamer like me, or is it a solitary spirit after materialization? Did he come here by accident or on purpose? Questions flashed through my mind, my heart pounded, my mind was spinning fast but I couldn't figure out a clear line. I want to use spiritual power to tempt, but as long as he's there, I can't use any spiritual power. He seemed to have a powerful suppressive ability that restrained me.
Safe?
I tried to summon Ann Yin. It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still two hours to go until dusk, and I still had a glimmer of hope calling him.
There was no response.
I looked up and found that Qi Yan was looking at me, that penetrating gaze that seemed to be able to see through my thoughts. My panicked eyes betrayed all my thoughts. But there was no aggression or hostility in his eyes, just a gentle look at me, with a smile and concern, a tenderness that I hadn't touched in a long time.
"My class representative, well, it's the girl in the mint green dress!" He pointed at me, smiling slightly, a mischievous flash in his eyes.
I stood up and looked at him in disbelief. The rest of the girls let out a series of frustration sounds.
"But......" I said.
Why me.
"What is your name, classmate?"
"Meng Yishi, but ......"
He couldn't allow me to refuse, so he said, "You can help me get these things to my studio." ”
