Chapter 28: Nightmare
As night approached, the sparse stars scattered across the sky, slowly moving. Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, being able to see a clear moon is probably the only benefit of living in Kanglong.
Shortly after the end of Caude's time, the students hurried back to their dormitories, took a change of clothes and went downstairs to take a shower.
The sound of owls came from the mountains and forests outside the wall, Fan Lei looked up, draped the towel over his shoulders, and walked towards the school road.
His injuries had not yet healed, and he was still limping when he walked. After all, it was a dragon whip, and not everyone had the same physique as Fang Chang.
The bathhouse had not been open for a long time, and it was still early, and most of the students on the school road walked in the same direction as him, leading to the nearest bathhouse.
After walking for a while, someone came from a distance. Fan Lei looked at it twice, and realized that the person was Lan Silin, a freshman who had only been in the zero-breaking class for a long time.
Despite being a freshman, he is already a celebrity on campus. Kang Long, the person who has eaten the most dragon whips at one time since the establishment of the school, his personality makes even the instructors in the academy daunting.
Although he is quite prosperous in the academy, Lan Sirin is mostly silent on weekdays and rarely communicates with others. Fan Lei has never spoken to him.
Therefore, even if he is in the same class, he has no intention of saying hello. He lowered his head, trying to pretend that he didn't see it, and continued to walk forward.
The two did not pass by.
Lan Silin walked straight in front of him, forcing him to stop.
"Are you free?"
Fan Lei was stunned. Lan Silin in front of her was still the same as before, and there was no trace of emotion on her face.
"What's the matter?"
"Yes."
Lan Silin didn't seem to realize that this was just a polite remark, and nodded bluntly, but instead taught Fan Lei to be confused.
"Come with me somewhere."
"Where to go?"
"Playground."
"What are you doing on the playground?"
"Something."
"What's the matter?"
"Said on the way."
ββ¦β¦β
Fan Lei said helplessly: "If it's not urgent, I think you can say another day, I can't line up when I'm late for a shower......"
Lan Silin raised her head slightly, looked directly at Fan Lei, and said:
"Urgent."
Fan Lei couldn't cry or laugh. He never felt that the relationship between the two was very familiar, so what urgent matter could he have to find himself?
Walking on the way to the playground, walking in the opposite direction with the hordes of classmates, many acquaintances saw him with surprised expressions on their faces. Fan Lei was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak, and grabbed his hair.
After walking through the dormitory building, there were finally fewer people. Fan Lei said impatiently:
"Lan Silin, you took me for such a long distance, so I couldn't even take a shower, what's the urgency?"
He bit the word "urgent" very hard, and was already very dissatisfied with Lan Silin's behavior in his heart.
Lan Silin seemed to be a little tired, reached out and rubbed her face, then turned her head and looked at Fan Lei with a smile.
"What's the hurry, isn't a man's bath just rubbing the top and then rubbing the bottom? It only takes two minutes to get it done. β
"That's not the point at all, is it?"
"So what's the point?" Lan Silin smiled and asked:
"I didn't take a bath, I was found by the teacher, and I asked people to beat the ruler?"
When Fan Lei heard this, he pursed his lips, a little displeased, and said sullenly:
"You also know in your heart, we are all people who have been whipped, at least during this time, we will be the focus of teachers and instructors, and if we are caught a little bit, it is natural to be punished......"
Lan Silin stretched and said lazily:
"Then you should accompany me on this trip."
Fan Lei was stunned.
"What does that mean?"
Lan Silin turned her head, crossed her hands behind her head, and smiled. The words are amazing.
"I can send you out."
Fan Lei paused.
"What did you just say?"
Lan Silin suddenly sighed, put her hands in her pockets, and said:
"That's what you understand, literally, what you think is impossible but that's what it meansβjust nod your head and help me do something, and I can send you back to your sweet, beautiful and happy home."
Fan Lei was silent for a long time, then quickened his pace and hurriedly followed him, his face stiff.
"Why should I trust you?"
Lan Silin spreads her hands:
"It's your choice to believe me or not, and if you don't want to see your lovely young sister, you might as well turn around now and forget what we said tonight."
Fan Lei's eyes widened suddenly, and he was numb for a while, and his heart exploded like a thunderbolt.
Lan Silin paused, slowly turned her head, and observed Fan Lei's reaction with a smile.
Fan Lei pursed his lips tightly, and his body seemed to tremble.
"I've never told anyone at school about my family."
Lan Silin smiled and said:
"But it's not hard to know, is it? Your file is in Sun Shanli's principal's office......"
"Impossible!" Fan Lei roared:
"I saw my file with my own eyes, just before I enrolled...... There is no mention of my sister in it at all! β
Lan Silin sighed again, rubbed her eyebrows, and said unhurriedly:
Fan Lei, born in 9X, ancestral home in Jiangxi, moved to Shanghai at the age of 4...... Your family relationship is complicated, your parents are divorced, and the legal judgment awards you to your father and your sister to your mother. I went to Shanghai to study because of your mother's work in Shanghai...... As for the reason for entering Kanglong, it is because you committed a serious crime of intentional injury a year ago, and your mother was afraid that you would be imprisoned in a juvenile detention center, so she asked you to go back to Jiangxi to live with your father, but your father is a bad gambler and has no intention of taking care of you at all, and when he heard the news of Kanglong Academy from his relatives, he thought it was a good place and brought you over......"
Speaking of this, Lan Silin paused deliberately and whistled lightly:
"βWhat a good brother with affection and righteousness."
Fan Lei clenched his fists and was silent for a long time. At the end, he responded in a deep voice:
"You know that......"
Lan Silin didn't deny it, shrugged her shoulders:
"Your sister is affected by her family environment, has autism, is bullied by her classmates at school, and has never been afraid to tell you and your mother...... Until one day, you accidentally learned about it, and in a fit of rage, you took a knife and went to her school......"
"Say no more." Fan Lei interrupted Lan Silin's narration in a loud tone, lowered his head as if resigned to his fate, and said coldly:
"Tell me what I'm going to do."
Lan Silin glanced at him with a smile, turned around and continued to walk towards the playground, came to the edge of the sand pool, and took out a small envelope in a plastic bag from her pocket.
"It's easy to say, but it's not that simple."
Lan Silin squatted down by the sand pool, her fingers inserted into the sand, stirring slowly, and the smile on her face gradually retracted.
"There's a good chance that you don't have to do anything. But if someone finds you, you need to do a lot. You're going to bring him here and guide him to this envelope......"
ββ¦β¦ Then, I want you to ruin his life. Let him suffer, let him be tortured, let him pay......"
Fan Lei's pupils contracted slightly.
"Who's that guy?"
"If he comes to you, you'll know."
"How do I know if that person is him?"
"Only he will know about the envelope I left behind."
"Why are you doing this?"
Lan Silin didn't look back, raised his hand, under the moonlight, there were fine pieces of sand slowly pouring between his fingers, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a bewitching smile under his eyes.
"Do you know butterflies? Butterflies are caterpillars. However, butterflies and caterpillars, biologically, belong to two completely different types of life. Caterpillars form cocoons and metamorphose in cocoons. And this process of metamorphosis is actually the process of completely dissolving and rebuilding the cells of the body...... In other words, when a caterpillar emerges from its cocoon and becomes a butterfly, it must kill itself completely, leaving no trace. β
He stood up and added lightly:
"Break and then stand...... There is a lot to be paid. β
Fan Lei was silent for a long time.
"So, what you want me to do is basically just get a message across, right? If that's the case, why did you find me when there were so many people in the class? β
"I never said that there was only one envelope I hid."
Fan Lei's eyes widened, and while he was surprised, he suddenly took it for granted. Subsequently, he began to feel deeply afraid of Lan Silin's drip-tight layout.
There is no doubt that he is playing a huge game of chess. All kinds of signs show that he was imprisoned in Kanglong Academy, but he actually came prepared. And he is just a dark chess piece in his plan.
Fan Lei tried his best to calm down his mood a little, and asked indifferently:
"If I promise you, you'll take me out, won't you?"
Lan Silin shook her head and said with a smile:
"It's not me who wants to take you out, it's your mother. In a month, I will leave Kanglong Academy, and when that happens, I will inform your family and tell them about your situation at Kanglong Academy, and with your mother's character, she will definitely come and pick you up. β
"What if I promised you, but didn't do anything?"
"You won't." Lan Silin turned her head and smiled softly:
"You don't want to take that risk. Sooner or later, I'll see that person again, and I'll know if you did what I said. If you don't, I'll hold a grudge......"
He looked at Fan Lei and said with a smile:
"The name Lan Silin is much more dangerous than Kanglong Academy."
Fan Lei stopped talking. At that moment, he felt as if his whole body had fallen into the depths of a glacier, enveloped in endless cold and darkness, every cell of his body was rapidly necrotic in the absolute cold, and the terrifying pressure was transmitted from every capillary to the heart. His pupils shrank to a point, and his gaze was taken by Lan Silin's eyes, and through the depths of the deep pupils, it seemed that he could see a whole picture scroll of Hell Shura.
