At first, I thought I had misheard.

At that moment, I felt as if time had stood still.

I watched as the cup slipped out of my hand and fell little by little in the air. My head kept ringing "No, no." "Impossible, right......"

Until the cup shattered on the floor, the sound of breaking sounded, the shards splashed on my 'pants', and the water soaked my white shoes.

That's when I came to my senses.

We were in Yaoyue's class, so almost everyone's attention was drawn to this sound at this time.

The class fell silent, and I waved at them to signal that they were okay. They went back to their own business, pretending not to see, but they were silent.

I turned my head and looked at Yao Yue in astonishment, as if she remembered something terrifying, her face was pale, and her teeth chattered slightly.

I always thought that this kind of thing would only happen in TV dramas.

Lan Ling's parents, aren't they the parents of the Stygian Dragon? Killed his own parents...... That's a bit ...... It's a big rebellion!

I looked at Yao Yue's appearance and couldn't help but ask, "So, that thing...... You and Lan Ling have seen it with your own eyes, right? ”

“…… Well. Yao Yue nodded with difficulty and said, "Lan Ling and I have seen it, Pluto Wulong, and stabbed his parents, that is, Lan Ling's parents, to death with knives!" ”

I swallowed, sweat running down my forehead. Even if I had already guessed that the hands of the underworld might have been touched by human life, but ...... I never thought he had killed his own parents with his own hands!

There is no doubt that this is something that a madman would do. Recalling the appearance of the underworld, the 'yin' side is cold, and there is a sense of murder just by looking at the appearance.

In this way, it is not difficult to explain why Yao Yue and Lan Ling are so afraid of him, they were only so young at that time, and when they saw such a scene with their own eyes, they must have been a little unacceptable......

My eyes widened suddenly, as if I had thought of something again.

"Yaoyue, how old were you and Lan Ling at the time??"

Yao Yue looked up at me resentfully: "Thirteen years old." ”

I "chuckled" in my heart, and I was even more shocked: "That...... That Pluto Wurm ...... No, it's not ......."

"That's right." Yao Yue bit her lip and said, "Although the Stygian is at the same level as us, he is one year older than Lan Ling, and he was only fourteen years old at that time. ”

I covered my temples with my hands and I felt like the world had gone crazy.

Fourteen years old, a fourteen-year-old boy, would dare to stab his own biological parents to death with a knife?!

I really can't imagine that scene, could it really be that there is something wrong with the 'spirit' god of the Wurm? Otherwise, how could such a thing be done?

I was about to ask more, but I saw Yaoyue's body start to shiver again.

She hugged her shoulders with both hands: "Ji Nan, can we stop talking about this......"

I knew that it must be very painful to recall such a thing, and Yao Yue's appearance made me really unbearable to continue asking.

I hugged her into my arms and comforted her with words: "Okay, okay, let's not want to." ”

I gently patted her on the back, as if to comfort a frightened child. Yao Yue's trembling body slowly calmed down, and her breathing returned to normal. Gradually, she fell asleep in my arms.

I sighed. At this time, the bell rang for the end of school, and although it was a self-study class, there was still a sound of excitement in the classroom, and the teacher who was sitting on the podium reading the newspaper also breathed a long sigh of relief and left the classroom as if he had been liberated from prison.

The students packed up their things and left, and I gently put Yaoyue's head on the table, and took off my coat to cover her, not wanting to wake her up from her deep sleep.

When I stood up, the students in the classroom were almost gone, except for the elephant sitting in the back row, still staring at us.

"Elephant, can you please watch her here?"

"Absolutely." The elephant nodded.

I exhaled and said, "Okay, thank you." Yao Yue woke up and sent her back to the bedroom. ”

He nodded again and continued to say blankly, "Okay." ”

I left the classroom and hurried back to my class.

Xiao Ning usually leaves a little later than others when she leaves school, and she stays in the classroom to read for a while when she drags it out, which is her habit.

Sure enough, when I returned to class, everyone else was gone, and she was the only one still sitting.

It's just that she doesn't seem to be sitting there reading a book today, she has a blank sheet of paper in front of her, and she is holding an HB pencil in her hand, as if she is drawing something very seriously.

There was no one in the classroom, it seemed very quiet, the big fan on the ceiling board was "purring", and the curtains were fluttering in the wind.

Xiao Ning looked very serious, she didn't seem to notice me coming in, a strand of hair on her forehead hung down naturally, and she gently brushed it away, looking very beautiful.

I was a little curious to get closer and see what she was drawing. I was short-sighted, and at first I only saw the silhouette of a boy, and as I got closer and closer, I began to feel that the figure was more and more like me.

I was shocked, she was painting me? No way......

It's a sketch, the edges and corners are very well outlined, the features and lines of my face are crystal clear on this piece of paper, and there's no doubt that this is who I am.

As I got closer, she seemed to finally realize my presence, and casually raised her head, startled by me.

She covered the drawing paper with her textbook in a panic, and I sighed silently in my heart, a little helpless.

Although I saw it, I was afraid that I would be embarrassed to say it, so I pretended not to see it clearly, smiled lightly and said, "What are you doing?" Are you still so afraid of being seen by me? ”

Her face was a little red: "It's nothing. As if afraid that I would continue to ask, she hurriedly changed the subject: "Why are you back again?" Now that school is over, Xing Yu and the others are gone, probably going back to the dormitory. ”

I smiled again and said, "I'm not looking for them, I'm looking for you." ”

"Looking for me?" She was stunned for a moment.

"Hmm." I nodded, my expression becoming serious and serious: "Xiao Ning, I want to ask you for a favor." ”

She nodded, "You say." ”

"I want to tell you about it." I looked into her eyes and said word by word: "Lan Ling's matter." ”

I saw her body tremble visibly. I thought to myself, could it be that she also saw that with her own eyes?

However, her reaction was not as strong as Yao Yue Lanling's.

Xiao Ning's eyes were a little unnatural: "Lan Ling...... What's wrong with her? ”

I said, "Lan Ling, she hasn't been to school in a few days, you know?" ”

"Yes, I know." She said: "Lan Ling was originally a fun-loving 'girl' student, and this situation had happened many times before, and then she would run back by herself." ”

I was silent for a moment and shook my head, "I just don't want her to be the same as before." Then I paused and said, "Just now, she quarreled with Yao Yue again and slapped Yao Yue......

"Huh?" Xiao Ning was very surprised: "Then Yaoyue, is she okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's just that I'm a little lost now." I said, "So I want to ask you, you are one of her best sisters, and when I get back to the dormitory, help me comfort her." And then there's ......"

"I want you to help them, I don't know what kind of misunderstanding they had, but I want them to reconcile."

Xiao Ning 'revealed' the embarrassed 'color': "This ...... I'm afraid ......"

I looked her in the eye and said, "Xiao Ning, can you help me?" I know that only Lan Ling can listen to you now. ”

Xiao Ning was silent for a while before sighing and saying, "Okay, I'll try my best." ”

I laughed, having been at the same table with her for so long, I still knew her. Others may be perfunctory when they say "try as much as possible", but Xiao Ning says "try as much as possible", which means that she will definitely go all out.

But things didn't seem to go as smoothly as I imagined, and for nearly a month, Lan Ling didn't even appear at school again, and she didn't know where she went, and Xiao Ning didn't have a chance to talk to her face-to-face.

Xiao Ning came to me very helplessly and said, "I'm sorry, Ji Nan, I can't do anything if she doesn't come back." I also called her often, but every time she said, "Xiao Ning, I'm playing outside now, I'll talk to you later" and hung up. ”
