In the melodious class bell, the two people at the same table walked to the higher part of the teaching building.

Jiang Lan's steps are very large, two steps in one step, although the posture looks relaxed, the speed is not slow.

Xu Jing could only trot and follow step by step.

As the floor rises, the hustle and bustle is gradually dropped below.

Only one to four floors of the school building are used for student classes, the fifth floor is used for teachers' offices, and the sixth floor is used for warehouses.

Xu Jing was extremely nervous, subconsciously shrunk her hands on her chest, walked on her tiptoes involuntarily, and her ears moved from time to time, like a timid little squirrel.

When passing by the fifth floor, the girl almost held her breath, for fear that the slightest movement would be noticed by the teachers in the office......

Jiang Lan still looked indifferent, and still walked swaggeringly. The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty hallway, and it seemed a little harsh.

It's easy to get past the fifth floor.

Xu Jing let out a long sigh of relief, turned around to confirm that he had not been discovered, and hurried to follow him.

"I'm already in self-study, shall we go back soon?"

She whispered to Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan ignored her, and still walked up on his own.

Xu Jing didn't dare to speak now, so she had to follow him quietly. Otherwise, even if there is no distance lock, she will not dare to go back alone.

There are no voice-activated lights above the fourth floor, and the hallway is dark.

The outlines of everything were blurred, as if they had entered the inner world.

Only his back and his temperature are very clear.

Xu Jing could feel that Jiang Lan was just two steps in front of her.

Even if you can't see the road ahead, as long as you follow his footsteps, follow him to rise and move forward, you will have a solid sense of security in your heart.

After entering the communication zone between the fifth and sixth floors, the light source outside the window has become very rare.

The staircase is also completely integrated with the darkness, and stepping on it makes you feel as if you are stepping on a figurative night.

The two arrived on the sixth floor, the highest floor of the school building.

Huaishi No. 1 Middle School is built on the mountain, and the second year of high school is on the highest platform.

It is also the highest altitude in the whole city.

The night above is quiet and pure. The brightness of the artificial light on the ground was almost invisible at this point, as if it had reached deep space.

Jiang Lan stopped at the door of the rooftop and pushed the door—the big iron door seemed to be chained, and there was a loud bang.

That way he won't skip class, right?

Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Lan seemed to have read her heart at once, and turned around.

Obviously, the black light here is blind, and he can't see his five fingers, but Xu Jing feels that his gaze is very clear, like a sharp fire.

She was a little frightened by his eyes, and shrank her head cowardly.

Jiang Lan's voice sounded in the darkness: "Have something to say?" ”

"Hmm......"

Xu Jing plucked up the courage to raise her head: "It's not right to skip class, let's go back......"

"I, I won't cry anymore, I'll study hard." She added.

"Oh."

Jiang Lan snorted lightly, as if he had nothing to do with her.

"But I'm just going to warp. It's all here, and it's not in vain to go back. ”

How so......

Xu Jing puffed out her mouth a little complainingly, and the amplitude was larger than usual—Jiang Lan couldn't see it anyway.

"But the door to the rooftop is locked."

Xu Jing subconsciously whispered.

I was stunned for a moment.

Why do you say "the roof is locked" instead of "it's not right to study on your own"?

Jiang Lan smiled faintly and stuffed his kettle and her water cup into Xu Jing's arms.

"Then I'll just open it."

With that, he grabbed the chain with both hands and began to fiddle.

Xu Jing was so frightened that her little face turned white: "Don't be like this, you will lock it-"

"Smack."

Before the girl could finish speaking, she heard a crisp metal crash on the ground.

The lock was really knocked off!

Jiang Lan only then turned around: "What did you say?" ”

The girl's voice was already stammering: "You, you, you broke the lock......"

"It didn't close in the first place."

"Huh?"

Jiang Lan picked up the lock, slipped to Xu Jing and shook it.

Xu Jing reached out and touched it, only to find that the lock was open.

When the little hand came into contact with the cold metal, it also inadvertently touched his warm big hand, touching his fingers that were larger than himself.

Suddenly, an electric shock sensation pierced the heart from between the fingers and shot along the nerves to the whole body.

The girl also withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

"Really, it's really unlocked......"

She whispered, subconsciously hugging the two kettles in her arms tighter. Maybe it was because Jiang Lan's water cup was bigger, so she hugged it tighter.

"yes, it's not locked - and it never is."

Jiang Lan said as he pulled the chain on the door out.

"It's not that many things can't be solved, but we think there is no solution, so we don't face them - in fact, it's like this unlocked iron door, as long as you are willing to pull off the chains, then you can cross it and see a different scenery."

Jiang Lan said, and the chains fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Bang-"

The starry sky, which had been imprisoned outside, poured into the room.

The summer nights in the north are deep. The deep sky is like a pure black curtain, dotted with silver stars twinkling.

The vast nebula flows, circles, and twists slowly, giving those who look at the stars from afar the illusion that they are flying towards a sea of stars.

No. 1 Middle School was built in a relatively remote place on the outskirts of Huai City, and the light pollution was relatively light. And the school has a long tradition of saving electricity, and does not turn on non-essential light sources at night.

Because of this, it is one of the purest places in the city at night.

The teenager who skipped class clapped his hands and walked out the door.

The girl who skipped class had forgotten all other things, and looked at the magnificent night sky with her mouth slightly open, and her eyes seemed to be shining with stars.

"Come out."

Jiang Lan stood outside and beckoned to her, "How cool it is here!" ”

"Oooh!"

Xu Jing took the water glasses of the two of them, crossed the threshold, and ran out.

Sure enough, it was cool.

Not only is the temperature on the rooftop cooler than indoors, but there are gusts of evening breezes, which are particularly pleasant.

The moment you step through that door, it is as if you have arrived in another world, and all the unhappiness and troubles of the school disappear in an instant.

Jiang Lan continued to walk forward, walked to the edge of the rooftop, and sat down directly in front of the barbed wire.

It's dirty on the ground......

Xu Jing whispered in her heart, but she didn't say it. She walked up to Jiang Lan and handed him his water glass.

Jiang Lan took it, took a long sip, and snorted comfortably.

Hearing him drink so comfortably, Xu Jing didn't know why she was a little happy, but she was a little lost in an instant. It would have been better if he had drunk the water she had fetched.

Jiang Lan patted her side with her hand and motioned for her to sit too.

Xu Jing hurriedly sat down with her knees hugged—obviously she was still worried about being dirty just now.

But at the moment they were sitting together, alas.

"Have you been here before? In the evening. ”

Jiang Lan seemed to be asking her, but his eyes were looking at the galaxy in deep space.

Xu Jing shook her head and looked at his face.

"When I was a freshman in high school, I was still in Huaishi No. 1 Middle School, and I used to come here a lot. But I didn't skip class at that time, so I came at noon. ”

"Two or three weeks ago, as you know, I was transferred back from Shandafu. I wasn't in a good mood for a few days, so I often used the excuse of going to the toilet and then sneaked up and sat here alone to watch the stars. ”

"Sit here, feel the vastness of the universe, and you won't be bothered by the daily trivialities anymore."

Jiang Lan said, looked at her and blinked.

"Speaking of which, I'm still ...... The first time I showed someone here. ”

Xu Jing's eyes suddenly became sore, and she cried out again.
