Chapter 405: The Collapsed World 3
In the darkness and haze, the cement road leading to the teaching building of the school faintly emitted a halo, which was a street lamp.
The cedars on both sides of the road seemed to turn into living monsters in the mist, looking at any pedestrian walking on the road with their teeth and claws.
But there were no pedestrians on the road, only two poor little ones who cowered and walked forward for warmth.
Li Feiyu, who has always been proud of his height, felt that he was really weak for the first time in this situation.
Even if nothing happened, his psychological defense line was already on the edge of high tension, and only the temperature of his palm could make him feel more grounded.
Although Zhao Qingyu is also very nervous, the situation is much stronger than Li Feiyu, I don't know why, she subconsciously accepts all kinds of things to a great extent, and the current situation is still within her acceptability.
Of course, she was still careful.
Finally, the two walked to the front of the Shaw Building, and vaguely saw the dim light on the opposite side of the hall passage on the first floor, where the teaching building was dimly bright.
But the two of them stopped at the same time, for nothing else, the shortcut passage they usually like to take to school becomes deep and secluded at this time, just looking at it, it will make people have a bad association.
Li Feiyu: "Let's go around from the side." β
Zhao Qingyu: "Okay." β
So, the two of them reached a very tacit agreement on their thoughts, and they both turned around together and walked towards the outdoor passage on the other side.
After bypassing the Shaw Building, the outline of the entire teaching building is revealed.
Although the outline is not clearly visible in the dark fog, each classroom is brightly lit, and bright light shines through the huge windows, so that you can roughly see the location of each class at a glance.
The first and third classes of high school are in the middle of the first floor, which is easy to find.
They slowly walked towards the direction of the first and third classes of high school, and the footsteps of both of them involuntarily slowed down, and Li Feiyu couldn't even help holding his breath, for fear that the panting would be too loud and make a noise about something inside.
The whole teaching building is very quiet, so quiet that it is weird, I don't know why, Zhao Qingyu suddenly remembered a very boring little thing, before the head teacher would often raid in the self-study class, and then accuse the students in their class of making a noise that "the whole teaching building can be heard", and I don't know if this matter is quiet now, does the head teacher feel very relieved.
The two of them were cautious, and did not enter the classroom at the beginning, but planned to see what it was like inside through the outside window first.
In the past, under normal circumstances, you could see the classroom on the first floor from the steps of the corridor outside, but now the fog is so thick that the two of them are standing very close to the window, their faces are almost touching the glass, and they can only barely see the seats near the window.
No one.
I could only see that the desks were piled up with books and homework books, and a Chinese textbook was spread out on several desks, and they all seemed to be on the same page.
The two glanced at each other, then walked towards the back door of the classroom, which was open and not closed.
Standing in the back, they finally saw clearly this time that on the two seats near the back door, there were not only Chinese textbooks, but also pop-up notebooks next to them, on which some knowledge points were recorded sporadically.
Li Feiyu immediately looked at the desk next to him, which was his seat, fortunately it was empty, there was nothing, otherwise he would really jump to his feet.
Zhao Qingyu walked directly to his seat in front of him, where there were no books.
At the end of the group, there was nothing in the seats except for the two of them, and the other tables were all lined with language books, and they were all turned on the same side, as if there were people in the other seats except the two of them.
Rao is Zhao Qingyu has a strong ability to accept, and he can't help but stand his hair slightly.
Li Feiyu even wanted to pull her out directly, "This place is more infiltrating than the outside, let's slip away." β
"Wait a minute, I'll take a look over there."
Zhao Qingyu said, without waiting for his reaction, she went directly from the direction of the podium to the other side of the classroom, and when she passed the podium, she glanced sideways, and there were a few words written on the blackboard from the first lesson of the second unit.
Is it really in class?
This strange thought flashed through her mind.
Then, she forced herself to walk calmly to the fourth group, and finally saw the first person in the school: Ruan Ling.
Although Ruan Ling's silhouette was blocked by the fog at a distance of one or two meters, Zhao Qingyu could still see that the other party was staring at the blackboard, as if he was really watching the teacher lecture above.
Li Feiyu came to her side at some point and said softly, "What's wrong?" β
Zhao Qingyu didn't finish speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Ruan Ling, Li Feiyu looked at it, and his heart suddenly chuckled.
In such an environment, the sudden appearance of a person is more terrifying than no one.
"SheβWho is she?" Li Feiyu's voice trembled.
"Ruan Ling, you wait for me here, I'll go over and take a look."
"Don't......" Li Feiyu wanted to reach out and grab her, but Zhao Qingyu had already gotten off the podium and walked towards Ruan Ling's seat.
Ruan Ling sat in the position against the wall, and the same table was Wang Hao, although Zhao Qingyu couldn't see the person in the position now, but his intuition still felt that it was better not to occupy this place.
She stopped in the aisle outside, only a desk away from Ruan Ling.
"Ruan Ling?" She tried to shout softly.
Unexpectedly, Ruan Ling really heard it, turned her head slightly, and looked at her with some confusion.
"What's wrong?" Ruan Ling's voice sounded a little mechanical sluggish, and in her beautiful eyes, the jet-black eyes did not reflect at all, like two black holes.
Zhao Qingyu's eyebrows twisted slightly.
"You...... Why is it still here? Zhao Qingyu tried to be more tactful.
Ruan Ling said with some confusion: "Of course it's a class here." β
Class...... Zhao Qingyu looked at the podium again, there was fog blocking it, and he couldn't see the blackboard clearly, but the two black shadows were particularly frightening in the fog.
She knew that the one near was Li Feiyu, but the one behind Li Feiyu was ...... Who is it?!
Zhao Qingyu wanted to open his mouth to speak, but found that he couldn't make any sound at all except for his teeth chattering up and down.
"Actually, I thought about it, it's good here, I won't leave here, this time, I want to study hard, I will never expect any man again, and become an admirable strong woman in the future."
Zhao Qingyu turned his head sharply and looked at Ruan Ling, obviously so close, but the latter's face became more and more blurred.
She was still talking: "I'm sorry, Zhao Qingyu, if we didn't know each other at the beginning, it would be a lot, I'm very selfish, this world will be left to me, okay......"
Her voice grew weaker and quieter, and her whole being eventually faded away, finally merging with the fog around her.
All Zhao Qingyu's voices were stuck in his throat, and he didn't care what Ruan Ling's words meant, so he immediately rushed to the podium, grabbed Li Feiyu, who looked confused, and rushed out of the classroom.
"W-What's wrong!" Li Feiyu ran faster than her, and finally it became him pulling her.
"Ruan, Ruan Ling are gone."
Zhao Qingyu said with palpitations.
Li Feiyu didn't get too close, so he didn't see this scene, and when he heard this, he was puzzled: "Disappeared?" What do you mean? β
"I saw her, and she was like...... It turned into fog. β
"I ...... Go! β
The two finally understood what Daddy's sentence "There are people everywhere outside" meant, and the inexplicable fog of feelings is a human change!
This kind of cognition has successfully subverted the worldview of the two, and the world is really too terrifying.
"Zhao, Zhao Qingyu, I now feel that you were right before, this world, the world, the cliff is a false illusion, otherwise this situation really can't be explained by science!" Li Feiyu looked at the dense fog around him and said tremblingly.
Zhao Qingyu thought so, but she didn't tell Li Feiyu what Ruan Ling said to her.
I don't know why, she vaguely felt that in fact, Ruan Ling, like the two of them, had discovered the strangeness of this world, but she would rather indulge in it than extricate herself.
If you are willing to admit this world, will you end up with the same ending as Ruan Ling?
Zhao Qingyu shuddered.
Fortunately, neither she nor Li Feiyu beside her had such thoughts.
Knowing the origin of these dense fogs, Li Feiyu immediately wanted to pull Zhao Qingyu out of the school, but the latter did not plan to leave immediately, she also wanted to go to other classrooms to see.
"Oh my God, who do you want to stay here for......" Li Feiyu was about to cry.
Zhao Qingyu: "Then you say, where are we going out now?" Elsewhere are you a clue to leave this world? β
Li Feiyu was allowed to live, so he had to agree to Zhao Qingyu's method.
In fact, with the previous circular staircase incident, Zhao Qingyu didn't plan to go upstairs again, she just wanted to look for it in the first and second classes of high school next to her, and Xia Zimo was not inside.
Although they are in different classes, Zhao Qingyu still knows where Xia Zimo sits, and he sits in the seventh row of the second group, which belongs to the back of the classroom.
Zhao Qingyu directly chose to enter through the back door, this time Li Feiyu said that he would not part with her, and the two walked in slowly.
Like Class 3, there was an open book on each table, but Class 2 was in English, and it seemed that they were in English class.
In the fog, Zhao Qingyu quickly found Xia Zimo's seat, and like the two of them, there was no one and no books.
Xia Zimo didn't come to school!
Li Feiyu also understood Zhao Qingyu's purpose, and frowned at the empty seat.
"What should I do?" He whispered.
Zhao Qingyu shook his head: "Go out first." β
"Okay."
The two turned around and walked out of the classroom, and came to the small platform in front of them to raise the national flag, and suddenly the ethereal bell rang behind them.
Zhao Qingyu and Li Feiyu stopped at the same time, and slowly turned their heads sideways to look at each other.
Li Feiyu: "You say, are they out of class?" β
Zhao Qingyu: "Probably...... Yes, right. β
"Then we ......"
"Let's see if anyone else comes out here."
ββ¦β¦β
Li Feiyu was teary-eyed, he knew that he couldn't do it, but it would be no good thing.
"But don't worry, we'll wait here for a while, and if there's really no one, we'll go out." Zhao Qingyu said soothingly.
"Good ......"
But with that said, there was still silence in the school building, and no one was seen coming out of the thick fog, just like when they first arrived.
Just when the two were about to give up, a voice suddenly called Zhao Qingyu's name not far away.
"Zhao Qingyu! Zhao Qingyu! β
This voice is a little familiar, but it is definitely not Xia Zimo's voice.
Li Feiyu immediately bowed his head and admonished: "Don't look at people clearly, don't agree." β
It seems that this kid doesn't know what to think of, and he is very cautious.
Zhao Qingyu nodded, in fact, she thought so too.
The man probably saw that she had not responded, and did not continue to shout after shouting a few times, Zhao Qingyu and Li Feiyu looked at each other, and the latter said, "What should I do?" β
Zhao Qingyu thought for a while and said, "Wait, if he really has something to find me, he should come down." β
Li Feiyu's mind immediately appeared as a white mist slowly drifting in front of them, and he couldn't help but tremble.
Fortunately, it was not a white mist that came down after a while, but a person.
The man was getting closer and closer, and Zhao Qingyu and Li Feiyu finally saw each other's appearance clearly.
A young man with a somewhat thin face.
"Are you...... Gu Li?! β
Zhao Qingyu exclaimed, she felt as if she was about to remember something.
Gu Li really smiled: "You still remember me, it seems that he really failed this time." β
"What do you mean?" Zhao Qingyu frowned and chased after him.
Gu Li glanced at Li Feiyu, who had an ugly face beside her, and replied: "Forget it, you don't need to know these things now, you'd better get out of this place quickly, if it's twelve o'clock in the morning, you will stay here forever." β
"What?!"
Zhao Qingyu and Li Feiyu shouted in unison, the former grabbed Gu Li's clothes, it was real, "How did you get out of here?!" β
"Go up the mountain, go to the stone house in the mountain behind the south cliff, which is the exit of this world."
South Cliff! It's a long way from here!
After Li Feiyu heard this, he immediately grabbed Zhao Qingyu's arm and wanted to take her out, but Zhao Qingyu was pulled by him and staggered back two steps.
She still twisted her head to look back, and Gu Li still stood in place, looking at them quietly.
She felt a pain in her heart and shouted, "Where is Xia Zimo? Aren't you going too? β
"If you are fated, you will naturally meet."
In the fog, this was Gu Li's last answer.
β¦β¦
"After the first evening self-study, it's 7:20, and we don't have much time left."
Out of school, Li Feiyu noticed that Zhao Qingyu's mood seemed to be a little low, and couldn't help but explain.
"yes, I know."
Zhao Qingyu smiled: "I don't blame you, really." β
Even if she didn't turn her head to look, Li Feiyu could guess that the smile on her face at this time must be very reluctant.
"Didn't you listen to Gu Li? We will definitely see each other if we are fated. He couldn't help but comfort.
Zhao Qingyu did not speak.
After a long time, she added quietly in her heart: Then who knows, there is still a fate.
But she also knows that now is not the time to be sentimental, but she is faintly sad in her heart, and she still misses her family in this world.
Although she had tried it a few times, and now it was gradually clear that they were probably different from herself, an illusory afterimage cast by someone at this time, she was still a little reluctant.
"Li Feiyu."
"Huh?"
"Are we abandoning our families like this?"
"No, I believe that our real family must be in the real world outside, waiting for us to return."
"Hmm!"
That's right, her real family must be looking forward to her waking up from this illusion as soon as possible.
