Chapter Ninety-Six: Bad News (Part II)

If the person on the other side of the phone is really the squad leader Gao Xueqin, this is naturally a big misunderstanding.

However, the other party had not yet given Zhuo Xuan a chance to explain, and then reprimanded in an unkind tone: "Zhuo Xuan, no matter where you are now, you must be there for the class meeting in an hour!" ”

Without waiting for Zhuo Xuan to respond, Gao Xueqin quickly cut off the call, making Zhuo Xuan, who was holding the mobile phone, a little at a loss.

He couldn't help but think of the previous experience of counselor Guo Ting talking to him, and it seemed that it was also a small report from Gao Xueqin. Logically speaking, Zhuo Xuan thought that he had nothing to do with Gao Xueqin, but the other party faintly expressed an inexplicable hostility, which was really confusing.

Perhaps, Gao Xueqin thinks that her repeated absence from class activities is actually a challenge to his authority?

Zhuo Xuan shook his head, too lazy to delve into the problem. Zhuo Xuan has always been not good at handling personal relationships, which is one of the important reasons why he has not had many friends since he was a child. Until now, there are still only a handful of people who can be called Zhuo Xuan's friends.

When did it become like this?

That fire that happened when I was a teenager? Or is it because the parents have become more and more mysterious until they disappear?

When I left the rental house, I didn't know when the next time I would come back. Zhuo Xuan stepped on the bus back to school, the chaotic thoughts in his mind quickly receded with the scenery outside the bus, and the faces reflected in the glass were silent and melancholy, as if he was in another parallel time and space.

Zhuo Xuan's rough hand habitually stroked his wrist. Touching it, the hard outline of the black watch echoed the identity he had always wanted to get rid of. When the bus arrived at the station, it gradually stopped, Zhuo Xuan was expressionless and leaning on the railing, and was about to get up, but there was a tingling pain in his wrist for no reason. His hand was retracted as if he had been electrocuted, his feet were unsteady, his body staggered, and he was on the verge of falling.

A pair of slender hands supported Zhuo Xuan's body, and then slowly withdrew it. Zhuo Xuan turned around in surprise, but saw a delicate face.

Her eyes were clear, but there was a wry smile on her face; The faint eyebrows should have been carefully trimmed, and the blush on the mouth made Zhuo Xuan, a straight man, unable to guess what color it was.

The most important thing is that the moment he saw this face, Zhuo Xuan felt inexplicably familiar, where he should have seen it.

But where, exactly?

"Zhuo Xuan, are you okay?" Zhao Meng rubbed her wrist and asked with some concern, and then she grabbed Zhuo Xuan's sleeve without hesitation and walked out of the car with him, "Come, let's talk while walking." ”

Zhao Meng.

By the way, that's supposed to be her name.

Like Gao Xueqin, she was also Zhuo Xuan's college classmate. It's just that after entering the university, the friendship between classmates is no longer as deep as usual. If you don't deliberately keep in touch, I'm afraid you can only see each other in a hurry during class; Or sit in the lecture hall, end the class, leave quickly, and you won't even have a rush side.

After getting out of the car, the two walked side by side into the university town. Passing by the basketball court, there are also many students sweating wantonly in winter, and most of the pedestrians passing by are in company, talking and laughing, and raising a noisy wave; And Zhuo Xuan and Zhao Meng didn't say anything to each other along the way, and they both felt a little embarrassed.

After all, Zhao Meng was much better at talking than Zhuo Xuan, so he took the initiative to break the silence: "You just ...... You okay? ”

"It's fine."

Zhuo Xuan shook his head and replied a little rigidly.

This is not that Zhuo Xuan is pretending to be cold, but because at this moment, his mood is really a little bad.

On the bus, the moment Zhuo Xuan got up, a familiar stinging pain came from his wrist. With a cold electronic sound, the mission had been released in his mind. Zhuo Xuan, who was already familiar with this feeling, was still a little surprised, but his face was as usual, and he didn't show too much abnormality.

Does this mean that you have begun to learn to disguise?

Zhuo Xuan thought self-deprecatingly, but the moment he opened his mouth, he felt a little annoyed in his heart.

Really...... The camouflage is still so stiff.

"Okay, if you're really unwell, you can go to the school hospital to have a look," Zhao Meng felt that he was just bored, so he didn't say much.

Without much explanation, Zhuo Xuan knew that Zhao Meng, like himself, had received a call from the class leader Gao Xueqin to return to school. However, Zhao Meng is different from Zhuo Xuan in that her home is in Tinglin City, and it only takes a few minutes to drive from her home to the school.

When I came to the small classroom notified by Gao Xueqin, the rows of seats were already full of people. At the moment when Zhuo Xuan and Zhao Meng walked in side by side, a pair of eyes looked at each other, making Zhuo Xuan a little uncomfortable. He sat silently in the last row, and saw Zhao Meng sitting next to a girl with a familiar face.

After another five minutes, Gao Xueqin was late.

He stood at the door of the classroom, glanced around expressionlessly, his eyes stayed on Zhuo Xuan's body for a moment, then slowly withdrew his gaze and walked straight to the podium.

"Students, I suddenly notified you to be here today, and I have a matter to discuss with you. Usually there are always some people who are absent for no reason, although I am the squad leader......"

Gao Xueqin stood on the stage, her hands propped on both sides of the podium, and a trace of light was refracted on her glasses. What he said was all official words that Zhuo Xuan didn't dare to be interested in at all, but what made him feel strange was that he could detect that Gao Xueqin's tone was faintly strange, as if he was brewing some big news.

Zhuo Xuan was a little distracted, and he couldn't help but recall the incident of receiving a new mission from a black watch on the bus. I don't know if Zhou Xueqiu also received the task, if he is the only one who performs the task this time, then it means that he is the only one who faces the "beast" in the end?

Just when Zhuo Xuan secretly felt a headache about the task, a burst of exclamations suddenly erupted in the classroom, making him unconsciously look up. In the sight, familiar and unfamiliar faces were panicked, and the chatter was as irrepressible as boiling water.

……

"It can't be true, right?"

"No wonder I didn't see her today."

"That's right, the regular roll call meetings are all done with the help of Mr. Qi's."

……

What happened?

Zhuo Xuan's face was a little dazed, he had just been immersed in his own world and had not heard the news of Gao Xueqin's announcement. At this moment, when he saw Gao Xueqin on the stage, his face was heavy and he didn't say a word, so he naturally knew that something bad had happened.

Zhuo Xuan patted the shoulder of the boy in the front row, and asked in a soothing tone: "I'm sorry, I didn't hear clearly just now, what did the squad leader say?" ”

The boy turned his head to look at Zhuo Xuan, and responded in a strange tone: "You don't believe it's true either, do you...... Guo Ting died. ”
