Chapter 152: The Mystery of the Mirror 21
This time, as expected, Wells successfully participated in the sixth sports meeting. He was joined by Mark's older brother Mario in their class, and in sixth grade was Mesefu and a female classmate in his class.
When they were in the team, according to their performance during the training camp, the results were announced by Principal Brooke.
"Hopefully you'll be on the same team as Wells, so he can take care of you. Although I haven't participated in it, I heard Wells say that the environment of the sports day is really, really bad, and you have to be mentally prepared in advance. At lunch that day, Pekney sat down across from Su Rui and said very gently.
"I'm so sorry that if it weren't for Wood and Mante, the two of us would have been tied. In that case, I may not be able to make it to the Games. Su Rui has always felt guilty about this, and hearing Pekney say this made her feel even more guilty.
"Actually, the reason why I signed up was just to listen to Wells's advice, and I didn't really want to participate. "Pekney, Wells repeatedly suggested that he sign up because Wells wanted him to be on the first team with his sister. In this way, even if Pekney is in danger, he can protect her in time, which will give her a new experience.
"If everyone could know your strength, I guess you would definitely be the one with the most votes in the class. Wood laughed and said that since the matter had come to this, it was useless to say anything else.
"I'm really happy to hear you say that. "Peckney always likes to have a shallow smile on his face, even when he is not talking, the smile on his face is still maintained.
"You know, Pekney, I admired Wells from the very beginning, and I even considered him my hero. As the hero's sister, can you tell me something about Wells?" Mante unfolded his gossip trait and began to ask questions to Pekney.
It's just that although Pekney said it, she said some inconsequential little things. For example, what Wells usually likes to eat, what he hates, and what his favorite color is.
"Then do you know that we hardly see him in the Bird Silent Academy, why is that?" Mante was not satisfied with these small problems and small details, what he really wanted to know was the things that others did not know. Only when everyone doesn't know, and he knows alone, can there be a sense of accomplishment.
"All I know is that when he's not in class, he chooses places to explore. Maybe you don't know yet, but there are still many things we don't know about in Bird Silent Academy. There won't be any big discoveries, but there are plenty of small ones to be surprising. Pekney replied vaguely, but her words intrigued Wood.
Wood and the three of them, everything they have experienced in the Bird Silence Academy this semester made them feel that the Bird Silence Academy is a big mystery, and it has many secrets in itself. It's just that no one usually notices those small places, so those secrets are safe and revealed in front of everyone. If you can observe carefully, you will really have a lot of unexpected discoveries and gains in Bird Silent Academy.
In a few days, the training camp will begin, and all the members of the sports day will enter a closed environment for individual training. At that point, Chancellor Brooke and Professor Siye will be personally instructing them on how to deal with some of the emergencies that come their way in the context of the Games.
During the time that Su Rui was in training, Wood and Mante were obviously much more idle. Usually in addition to class, Wood went to his wife's more and more often, while Mante went back to the dormitory alone to take his nap.
The long hours spent in the lab, Wood felt were the most focused and quiet times he had. Wood will now also make some magic potions, but these magic potions will never be allowed by Lady Wood to take them back, but will be destroyed on the spot.
"Why can't I bring these things back?" Wood didn't understand Madame's approach, she was obviously very successful, but Madame ruthlessly destroyed the magic potion she had worked so hard to make.
"You may be pleased with these things yourself, but in my opinion, they are nothing more than worth mentioning. If you come to me every day for experiments, I'm sure by the time you graduate, you'll be making magic potions that will amaze everyone. At that point, those things are worth having. And these in front of you are just some foreshadowing on your road to success, whether you want to be the same or not. Wood didn't agree with Madame's explanation, but he didn't insist on it anymore.
Although these things were destroyed, Wood had mastered the steps and methods of making these potions. As long as Wood collects all the materials by himself in the future, I believe he will be able to make them himself.
Usually Wood likes to discuss things with Su Rui, but now that Su Rui is participating in the training camp, there is no way to give Wood ideas.
Once, when Wood was leaving his wife's lab, he took out the ghost mirror from his pocket on the way. The moment Wood took it out, it was as if he had seen a man's face, a woman's face, in a ghostly mirror. It's just that the face was fleeting and didn't impress Wood too deeply.
If it was a normal day, Wood would have found Su Rui as soon as possible and told her all this. But now that Su Rui is participating in the training camp, Mante is sleeping in the dormitory again. Wood thought for a long time, and thought of Pekney. Pekney knew a little bit about the Spectre Mirror, and the best way to find Pekney was to wait for her in the woods where she frequented.
It was nearly dusk, and it was almost time for dinner. Wood counted the time, thinking that Peckney should be back soon, so he waited for her in the woods where she frequented
Just as the sun was setting in the west, Pekney walked towards Wood in the afterglow.
"Hey, are you waiting for me?" The afterglow of the sun shone on Perkney's face, making Pekney's whole person look sparkling. Wood looked at her in amazement, as if she was stepping on a golden cloud.
Pekney reached out and waved lightly in front of Wood, who withdrew his gaze and blushed.
"Just now, when I took out the mirror from my pocket, it was as if I saw a man's face on it, and it was a woman's face. It's just that the picture flashed by, and I didn't see the person's appearance clearly. Wood didn't know what to say, he didn't call anyone by name. So Wood wasn't quite sure if what he was seeing was real or just an illusion.
"A woman's face? Have you ever said a woman's name to the mirror before, and you didn't see a picture of her?" Pekney asked, not quite sure what was going on, but now that Wood had asked her, she was going to find a way to analyze it for Wood.
"A woman's name?" Wood said to the mirror the names of two women, one of Suri's and the other of his own mother. Thinking of this, Wood couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, his mother's name?
I really didn't see any pictures of my mother at that time, and the ghost mirror turned black at that time. Now, after Pekney's reminder, Wood seemed to realize something very important, so he quickly took the mirror out of his pocket and called out his mother's name to the quiet without hesitation.
"Lilia. ”
With the afterglow of the sun, a clear woman's face appeared in the ghostly mirror. Seeing that face, Wood couldn't help but shed tears, and Wood didn't even realize that he was crying. He couldn't help but shed tears at the unfamiliar face he had never seen before, the face of a strange woman.
For 10 years, no matter what happened to Wood, he endured it alone, and never shed tears because of these things. So Wood hardly knew what it was like to shed tears, but today, his tears were like a river that had burst its banks, flowing down the river. His tears fell on the ghostly mirror, and the tears blurred the face.
The face in the ghost mirror just kept smiling at Wood, watching Wood keep crying, but she was still smiling. Her smile is like a language that conveys everything she wants to say.
Wood's tears fell lower and more, and the tears dripped on the ghost, making the face more and more blurred. Looking at the increasingly blurred face, Wood also wanted to stop crying, but the tears did not listen to him and kept flowing down. Wood frantically wiped the ghost mirror from his clothes, trying to wipe the tears from it. But no matter how much Wood wiped it, the tears on it could not be removed, and seeing that face disappear, Wood shouted loudly, "Mother." ”
Seeing Wood's heartbroken appearance, Pekney couldn't help but shed tears, there is nothing more cruel in this world. A person who has been thinking about him for 10 years is close at hand, but they can't see each other for some reason.
Many years later, looking back on this day, Pekney still remembers it vividly, and perhaps it was at this time that some changes occurred in her heart to Wood. It is precisely because of this change of Pekni that the fate of many people has changed later.
